fEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Washington State, regon mate &ven By SCOTT BAILLIE San Francisco HP) Mark up Saturday as D-Day, D for "desperation" that is, on more than one West Coast gridiron this week. end. California and Southern Cali fornia, whose new regimes have left them winless so far, head the list of mourners with a wake at Berkeley. The Eears have lost all four of their games under Coach Pete Elliott. The Trojans have dropped all three of their tilts since opening the schedule under Don Clark. Even the odds-makers fail to give either side a comforting pat on the helmet. The contest is rated a toss-up. Things are almost as bad in Seattle where Stanford tries to get off the floor against a Wash ington Husky team which has a tie to show for its best effort. "Both sides are' desperate to win," said Stanford Coach Chuck Taylor. "And I think we have a good chance. But Washington has the best running backs in the conference in Luther Carr, Jim Jones and Dick Payseno." Indians Farored Stanford has lost two straight to drop its mark to .500 while the Huskies opened against Colorado with a 6-6 tie then were successively thumped by Minnesota, Ohio State and UCLA. Taylor said that even if full back Lou Valli and right end Gary Van Galder are able to make it back from the injured list that they only would see "limited service" against Wash ington. The Indians are favored. While erstwhile conference hotshots are busy going nowhere, the trip to the Pose Bowl might be decided in Pullman, Wash., where Oregon plays Washington State. Both teams are deadlocked for first place among the Pasadena eligibles with 2-0 conference marks and look hot. The Cou gars stunned Stanford last week, 21-18, in a thundering second half rally while Oregon was mincing San Jose State 26-0. Saturday's game is another "pick 'em" affair. OSC Picked Over UCLA Seventh-ranked Oregon State, the class of an otherwise bleak Pacific Coast football picture, is expected to rack up its fifth in a row when it plays UCLA in Los Angeles. However, the undefeated Beavers had trouble putting down pesky Idaho last week and UCLA shows flashes of brilliance although bereft of seniors due to conference infrac tions. 1 If things weren't grim enough at San Jose State (1-4), the Spartans became the umpteenth team to get flu-bitten. The ill ness and injury list is up to 17 but Coach Bob Titchenal said he hoped his ailing troops would be in shape for San Diego State Saturday night. "I think we're getting back in our league too," Titchenal sighed. College of the Pacific, unde feated but tied last week by Kansas State 7-7, has a tough one coming up in Idaho. On top of that. Coach Jack (Moose) Myers of the Tigers also will be playing host to alumni who are checking in for homecoming week end. Idaho hung in there tough Indian Summer Ends Over Midwest Stales By UNITED PRESS A rush of cold, dry air brought an end to Indian Sum mer weather over sections of the Midwest today, but readings continued in the mild 50s and 60s in the northeastern section of the nation.

Cloudy skies and widespread rain maintained mild tempera tures in the Northeast. Heavi est precipitation Thursday night was at Roanoke, Va., with one half inch, while amounts of one third inch were recorded at Greensboro, N.C., and Augusta, Ga. Rain also hit west Montana during the night, depositing one fourth inch at Great Falls. Snow fell in parts of the northern Rockies and a few showers dampened portion of Wyoming.

(International) Some Good Shooting In Marshland Areas Upland bird and waterfowl gunners are again advised by the game commission that shooting time this Saturday, Oct. 19, will be at 8 a.m. in stead of the usual lime of one half hour before sunrise. This shooting time was put in effect to allow upland bird hunters plenty of time to con tact landowners before taking to the fields on the opening morning. Waterfowl hunters are affected by the ruling since much pheasant habitat lies adjacent to waterfowl areas. Without a doubt the 8 a.m. opening will cause some in convenience to those who have already made arrange ments with landowners to hunt. However, to cut down on indiscrimate trespass on the opening morning, the com mission fell the later shooting lime advisable. Portland Waterfowl gunners in the better marshland areas opened. the season with some good shooting according to re ports from the public shooting grounds scattered throughout the state. Sauvie island gunners opened the season Saturday and were on the target for 2.54 birds per hunter, a high ratio for this ear ly in the season. A total of 335 hunters checked into the man agement area and came away with 852 ducks and one goose. Most of the birds taken were baldpate, with a smattering of mallards and pintails. The west union proved to be the hottest area where 112 gunners took 394 birds. At Summer lake the success on opening day was 4.7 birds per hunter, again a high success ratio for this early in the sea son. Some 1,488 hunters check ed into Summer lake and killed 6,419 ducks and 505 geese. Mal lards, pintails and baldpates pre dominated in the duck bag, while snows made up almost the entire goose kill. Off Considerable On Sunday the success fell off considerably for the 664 hunters who checked in. These hunters took 884 ducks and 218 geese for a success ration of 1.7 birds per man. More than 100,000 bids were on shooting area for the opener. Reports indicate that this num ber will be doubled by the sec ond week end with snow geese streaming in daily. Warner valley hunters had some good shooting with 83 nim rods taking 135 ducks and 68 geese on the opener for a suc cess of 2.43 birds per man. On Sunday the success dropped to 2.00 birds per man, when 72 gunners took some 144 birds. At Warner valley more than 250,000 geese have moved into the area within the past two days with more streaming in. Most of the birds are snow geese with asmattering of white-fronts and cacklers. Poorest shooting was probably experienced by Klamath hunters where the report was only fair shooting on the opening week end. The firing line was poor with the birds flying high and fast. On the public shooting grounds at Furber marsh, Rocky point, Shoalwater bay, and Squaw point, hunter success was about 2 birds per man. Normal numbers of birds are in the Klamath area, but there are no concentrations in any one place. Recent rains which have filled the potholes resulted in scattering the birds through out the marshland areas. Paisley Suspect Admits Shooting Lakeview (IP) Lake Coun ty District Attorney Julian Herndon said today that Jesse T. Hibdon, 30, Merced, Calif., had signed a statement-admitting the Oct. 10 shotgun slaying of John Troy Lawson, 60, at Pais ley, Ore. Lawson was . shot and killed as he went to the aid of Mrs. Anita Bannister, Paisley post master, during a post office holdup. Herndon reported that Hib don at first maintained that he knew nothing of the shooting, al though he admitted taking part in the robbery. Later, however, he suddenly switched his story and admitted he fired the fatal shot at Lawson, Herndon said. Hibdon was captured near Lapine Tuesday. His partner in the robbery, Donald Ferguson, 32, Bakersfield, Calif., was wounded and captured shortly after the robbery and shooting.

ROBERT SMITH Mail Tribune Correspondent Washington While North west members of Congress the past several years have been holding long hearings to see that the rights of Indians, from the Klam aths of south ern Oregon to the Quinalts of the 0 1 y m p ic peninsula, have been protect ed, they appar ently have a. Robt. smitb been caught napping while the Montana del egation was pushing through a bill to whitewash a long list of violations against Indians in that state. The bill, sponsored by Mon tana's Democratic Senators Mur ray and Mansfield, have already quietly passed the Senate with out debate. The Senate Interior committee, of which Murray is chairman, approved the measure without holding any hearings. Two members of that committee who usually support the Indians are Sen. Richard L. Neuberger (D.-Ore.) who is now chairman of the Indian subcommittee, and Sen. Henry M. Jackson (D. Wash.). The House Indian subcommit tee is now looking into the mat ter, however, in an effort to find out the whole story. In a nutshell, the story is as follows: Crows Wanted Freedom Back in 1920, the Crow In dians of Montana wanted free dom from federal supervision, just as the Klamaths want it to day, in order to own private property as individuals. They had a 2,000,000-acre reservation in the rich grazing area of east-1 tions at Houston, Tex., and Spo ern Montana. Congress passed a ane. Wash., bv Feb. 1 in an ec- bill to give them their property, but with a safeguard designed to prevent outsiders with large land holdings from gobbling up the Indians' holdings for a song. Indians had hardly obtained their property before it started to pass into the hands of per sons, companies and corpora tions bent on acquiring large areas. The government winked at the violations, even though they carried a $5000 fine and six months prison penalty. The In dian bureau even assisted in some transactions. When the present Indian com missioner, Glenn L. Emmons, was told of this, he suspended all land transactions about 35 years after the violations began. He ordered an investigation which showed that the safeguard which would have held land Wreck Injuries Fatal To La Grande Woman La Grande (IP) Mrs. Clar ence Kopp, 64, wife of the grand master of Masons in Oregon, died late Wednesday from injur ies suffered in an automobile ac cident two weeks ago. Mrs. Kopp suffered a broken hip when a car in which she was riding was struck by a second car here Sept. 30. Doctors said she became unconscious Tuesday night from a blood clot brought on by the injury. She is survived by her hus band, Rev. Clarence Kopp, rec tor of St. Peter's Episcopal church here. Also surviving are two sons and two daughters. i quipmen Cement Vibrators TRU-EIK CONCRETE C? 246 E.MeANDREYVS Rft holdings down to 640 acres of farm land and 1280 acres of grazing land, was ignored so that some operators had ac quired as much as 30,000 acres. Would Repeal Safeguard Murray's bill would white wash the whole history of viola tions and repeal the safeguard. The Interior department has gone along in favor of the bill. The department took its stand after Douglas McKay left and before Fred Seaton took over, when the assistant secretary in charge of Indians was former Rep. Wesley D'Ewart (R.-Mont.) whose district contained the dis puted lands. Interior passed off the violations by saying they were in all probability uninten tional." In any event, it has been esti mated that some 40,000 acres are involved. And some Indians today find their allotments sur rounded by the holdings of a big operation to whom they have no choice but to sell out. MurraY and the Interior de partment claim the Crow tribal council has asked for this bill because "suspension of land sales has seriously interfered with the plans of several Crow Indian families." In none of the reports of the Senate or the de partment is there any expressed concern for Indians that were victims of the violations. Rep. Haley Suspicious Rep. James A. Haley (D.-Fla.) chairman of the House Indian subcommittee, is now looking into the matter, suspicious that Spokane, Houston Naval Stations To Be Closed Washington (IP) The Navy has announced it will close the Naval Air Reserve trainine sta onomy move. The 'Navy said the Houston and Spokane closings will save about $220,000. The shut-downs affect 533 re servists and 19 civilians at Houston. ' I A00 experience!

It has become apparent to him that there is more pressure behind this bill than one tribal council could possibly generate. Reportedly several large eastern insurance companies have made long term investments in the big ranching operations in the area, all of which are under a legal cloud unless this bill becomes law to make legal what is now illegal. Haley has had phone calls from the governor of Florida, urging enactment of the bill, and from Montana where the de mand for action carried a threat against the political career of his son-in-law, who is in the Montana legislature. Some Northwest congressmen who will have a chance to pass on this before it gets out of com mittee are Reps. Al Ullman (D. Ore.) and Jack Westland (R. Wash.).
