lege of Education for this most
important game to date in the
OCC. Game time is 2 p.m. and

RAIDER HALFBACK Delmar
Brood, above, 160-pound sopho
more, is among Southern Ore
gon college halfbacks who'll see
service this Saturday in the Ore
gon Collegiate conference foot
ball game with Oregon College
of Education. Brood was a high
school standout at Phoenix. He
transferred to SOC after attend
ing Shasta Junior college. The
OCC scrap will be at 2 p.m. on
Southern Oregon's Fuller field
In Ashland.
and statistics the Wolves of OCE
are slight favorites. OCE wal
loped Portland State which
Southern Oregon edged by a
conversion. But the Raiders will
have the advantage of their home
turf.
A vandalism incident In which
the Fuller field turf was cut, an
effigy hung and signs painted
has served to increase the zeal
of the Raiders although there
Is no proof that Wolve support
ers were responsible.
As for starters the most un
settled spots for SOC are at the
halfbacks. It's likely between
Delmar Brook and Lee McGill
at left halfback and Larry Maur
er or George Juveland at right
half although, Eldon Francis is
defensive standout could be the
right spot call. Others in the
opening backfield may be Lance
Locke, quarter and Ron Maurer
fullback.
In the line two ex-Medfordites,
Chuck Romine, tackle and Bud
Brittsan, guard, may be side by
side. Other likely linemen are
Norm Oliva and Cy Perkins,
ends; Troy Bellah, tackle, Mo
desto Jimenez, guard, and Phil
Sword, center.
Probables for OCE are Ted
Sloan and Larry Gower, ends;
Barry Adams and Wayne Osborn,
tackles; George Johnson and Jim
Atkins, guards; Len Brewer,
center, and Jim Bowlin, Larry
Buss, Wayne Gernhart, and Don
Lumgair, backs.

Boynton's 33-33 66, which

But, there were still three
days to go for Boynton at the

Toss Weight Around
By SCOTT BAILLIE
San Francisco (1?) Ore
gon and Washington State, who
used to starve in the Pacific
Coast Conference Garrett, were
set to throw their weight around
with a vengeance Saturday as
the bizarre West Coast football
season ground into the second
half of play.
Oregon's Ducks, a team which
hasn't been asked to the Rose
Bowl in 37 years, were a one
touchdown choice over once
haughty California in a game
at Eugene. A victory over the
Bears, who have lost four out
of five, might all but wrap up
the Pasadena bid.
Oregon sports a 3-0 confer
ence record for a one game lead
in the race and its nearest
pursuer among what is left of
the Bowl eligibles is Washing
ton State, who was nipped 14-13
by the Ducks in last week's
"crucial."
The Cougars who with
Oregon, California and Stan
ford represent the only teams
left in the PCC who qualify for
the Rose Bowl were in the
slightly delirious position of
being one point choices over
fallen Southern California.
WSC Slight Favorite
Time was when the mighty
Trojans specialized in murder
ing Washington State as a sea
son opener. But this is a year
of revolutionary changes in foot
ball" as well as guided missiles.
Southern California, along with
UCLA, watched all its seniors
get drummed out of the varsity
corps as an upshot of excessive
aid to the boys and remains win
less in four attempts.
UCLA is at Stanford in an
other Coast Conference game but
the Bruins are favored even if
they don't have any fourth-year
men either. Crafty Red Sanders
guided his Bruins to a shocking
26-7 triumph over Oregon State
last Saturday while Stanford
had to rally to keep Washington
starving, 21-14.
The Huskies, 0-4-1 in the
books, host an Oregon State
team that went back to funda
mentals after being stunned by
UCLA. Odds-makers expect the
Beavers to bounce back after
suffering their first loss in five
games. Washington has lost four
in a row after tying Colorado,
6-6, in the lidlifter.
COP Meets Cincinnati
College of the Pacific, which
remains undefeated thanks to a
brace of ties during the last
two week ends, goes after its
fourth triumph when it invades
Cincinnati. The Bearcats, 3-1-1,
defeated Marquette last week
while COP came; from behind
to deadlock Idaho, 7-7.

Schools Led
By Piasecki
New York OP) Steve Pia
secki of North Dakota, picking
up most of his yardage on passes,
has moved into first place among
the total offense leaders in the
small college football ranks.
According to the latest fig
ures released by the NCAA
Service Bureau," Piasecki total
ed 1,010 yards in his first six
games to open a big lead over
his rivals. Bob Webb of St. Am
brose was second with 884 yards,
four more than Jay Forlen of
Pepperdine, while Norm Jarock
of St. Norbert slipped from first
to fourth with 872 yards.
Piasecki completed nine of 17
passes against North Dakota
State last Saturday to maintain
his lead in the pitching depart
ment. He has completed 62
passes for 992 yards and 10
touchdowns. Teammate Bob Her
rick was tops among the pass
receivers with 29 receptions.
700 Rushing
Although he did not play last
week, Jarock still led the rush
ers with 700 yards gained, Don
Polkinthorne of Washington, St.
Louis, was tops in punting with
a 47.8-yard average, and Leon
ard Lyles of Louisville was the
highest individual scorer with
11 touchdowns and four conver
sions for 70 points.
In the team statistics, Gram-
bling, La., led in total offense
with an average of 470 yards
gained per game; Florida A&M
yielded only 44.5 yards per con
test to lead in total defense
Mississippi Vocational was tops
in passing with a 189-yard aver
age, and Florida A&M was the
rushing leader with a 398-yard
mark.

the only one it has played.
Hope of the Crater Comets is
to maintain their success of the

triumph on the gridiron over the
Grizzlies. The Comets won im
pressively again last year.
. The fullback spot is the most
"hurting" for the Comets. Ker
man Bennett may get the call if
it appears his knee will take it.
