Members of Dodger's Official Family Find New Life in West By HAL WOOD Los Angeles HP "Life was never like this in Brooklyn," opined Buzz Bavasi, the ener getic young general manager of the new Los Angeles Dodgers hf lolled beside the swimming pool at the swank Town House. "Here it is nearly the first of November; we call a press con ference and sit beside the swim ming pool while the beautiful local dolls swim as we conduct the business of signing Charley Dresen as our new coach." It's a new way of life for Ba vasi and the others in the Dodg er official family. Among those at the press conference were shortstop Pee V.'ee Reese, catcher Roy Campanella. first baseman Gil Hodges, outfielder Gino Ci moli and publicity director Red Patterson. Real Living "This is the life," said Pee Wee, the veteran spark plug of the Dodgers. "I'm going to live out here six months of the year and the other six months at my home In Louisville, Ky. I expect It is getting kinda cold back in Brooklyn now. And here we are sunning ourselves around a swimming pool." Rese was asked if members of the Dodgers might not have reduced incomes by living out here, because they would not get as many television and radio fees for appearances as they did in New York. "I don't think that's so," he said. "There is just as much na tional television coming from Los Angeles as in New York."

(International) MAIN AT CENTRAL Keep Healthy Objective Of Tornado "We're just aiming to keep 'em healthy." That's the object ive of the Medford high football coaching staff this week as the Black Tornado tunes for its ruckus this Friday night with the Ashland Grizzlies. While a win over the Grizzlies is the immediate objective, the Tornado and coaching staff can't help but look ahead to Nov. 8 wnen Medford meets Grants Pass in a game many grid fol lowers feel will decide the Dis trict 6 A-l and Southern Oregon championships. The Tornado will need to be in top shape both physically and mentally for that one. Still the Medfordites can't afford to overlook an upset minded Ashland team. The Griz zlies have gained new vigor from varsity victory last Friday over Crater and jayvee triumph i Monday over Medford. Ashland's I varsity reportedly "came y to its J own" in the Crater conflict and will be fired to take advantage if Tornado thoughts are not con centrated on the game at hand. Avoids Contact On the basis of season marks Medford rates the favorite role for the h?sle. Coach Fred Spiegelberg indi cated that the Tornado is avoid ing any heavy contact work this week. Dummy scrimmage was held yesterday. Focus on Mon day was on individual drill. One aspect the Tornado is emphasiz ing this week is pass defense. The Grizzlies could throw' quite a bit on Friday and the results with Crater are testimony to the effectiveness of the Ashland aerial game. And Medford still has its thoughts on Grants Pass and its potent aerial combination of Jim Smith to Mike Sparlin. Some Tornado players yet are hobbled by the battering in the Eureka fuss last week end but it is hoped to have them in run ning order for Friday.

Tuesday that produced at least three definite conclu sions. The University of California and Stanford University do not agree on a solution to the Pacific Coast conference tur moil, and each intends to stand by what it believes. California's major schools believe the creation of a com mission to control intercolle- Raiders Prep For Hungry EOCE Team By BOB McKENZIE Ashland After a successful two game home stand climaxed by a homecoming victory over Oregon College of Education last Saturday, the Southern Oregon College Red Raiders take to the road this week end, going to La Grande to meet the Eastern Ore gon College Mountaineers in the EOCE homecoming game on Saturday afternoon. SOC, now sole possessor of the number one spot in the Oregon Collegiate conference needs a win over . the Mountaineers to cinch the unshared crown. Coach Archie Dunsmoore's EOCE club, still looking for its first conference Win, will be hungry for a homecoming upset over the Red Raiders who have been forced to play the favor ite role after their 21 to 19 win over OCE. SOC coach Al Akins doesn't believe the Mountaineers should be taken at all lightly especially since the Eastern Ore gon club will play at home. Seventh In Defense Proving that they could make a comeback victory Saturday the Red Raiders, led by Larry Maurer on offense, and by "Mighty" Mo Jimenez, Norm Ol- iva and Chuck Crandall on de fense. grabbed the win out of OCE's grasp with a 21 point out burst in the last two stanzas. Shoving the Wolves from OCE almost completly off the field in the second half, the SOC grid- ders showed strength that has placed them seventh in the na tion in total defense, according to last weeks NAIA statistics. Several individual standouts for the Red Raiders are also included in the NAIA statistical reDort. Ron Maurer, hard hit ting fullback, is the 15th leading rusher in the nation with an average of 92.5 yards per game. Chuck Crandall, who supplied the key block for Larry Maur er's 64 yard dash, rates as the 10th leading pass receiver from his end position. As a team the SOC-ites rate 11th in the nation in passing offense. Coach Akins will be missing the services of two senior line men this week end for the East ern Oregon clash. The hard fought OCE scrimmage resulted in a broken leg to all-conference tackle Chuck Romine, who will be lost to the squad for the re mainder of the season. Senior end Cy Perkins will probably miss action in the Eastern Ore gon game due to an injured shoulder received in the OCE fracas. Five Persons Perish In Apartment Fire New York (IP) Five persons, including an entire family of four, died in an early morning fire that swept a two-story apart ment building here today. The two-alarm fire was dis covered at 4:50 a.m. It quickly engulfed the frame dwelling.

They discovered the five bodies in one bedroom on the second floor. Police identified the victims as Michael Guiterrez, 26; his wife, Augustine, 28; their chil dren, Evelyn, 9, and Antonio, 6; and a nephew, Soladad Rio Gui terrez, 5. Cause of the fire was not im mediately determined. Wednesday, October 30, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE giate athletics in the state would be an unnecessary invasion of the field of education. At least one assemblyman believes the hearings are a waste of time and money. President-elect Clark Kerr of the University of California told the legislators California would withdraw from the PCC if the conference fails to. adopt a five point program forged by the board of regents of both Cal and UCLA by May, 1958 or if UCLA is ejected from the con ference for'failure to meet PCC schedule commitments through 1960. "Berkeley has no intention of not going ahead with its verbal understandings," Kerr said. "But UCLA might take the first step and not play one of the four teams that voted against it." The four that voted to out UCLA were Oregon, Washing ton State, Idaho and Stanford. Attempt Promised Kerr said California and UCLA would try to carry out the UC regents' recent five-point program for increasing athletic standards. Both academically and financially either within the conference "or some other asso ciation." "We will try first in the PCC," Kerr said. Earlier, Stanford University athletic director Al Masters told the legislators that if any schools try to evade schedule obliga tions through 1960, the PCC "must close up or expel the schools." Commenting on the UC "five points," Masters said UC and UCLA might have trouble. try ing to schedule games with schools with similar require ments. "If UC and UCLA play only schools of like caliber, theyft; aren't going to get a football' schedule," Masters said. Virgil Akins Bout Winner Boston (IP A grinning Vir gil Akins, still elated at being the welterweight champion of eight states, rejected the pre vailing thought today that a flock of other contenders in 40 states did not recognize his paper crown. "This was the title fight, no elimination tournament for us," said manager Bernie Glickman with tongue in cheek after the sixth-ranked Akins had knocked out former champion Tony De Marco in the 14th round of their scheduled "title" 15 -rounder Tuesday night at Boston Garden. The 29-year-old Akins who supposedly hurt his right hand in losing recently to Gil Turner, showed no evidence of the in jury as he clubbed the top ranked contender to the canvas twice in the 10th round, again in the 13th and twice in the decisive round before the third and final count at 1:17 of the 14th. "Anybody who wants the title can come and get it," said Glick man as he thumbed his nose at five other possible contenders, 39 member states of the National Boxing Association and the New York state boxing commission. Statute Claimed Unconstitutional Pendleton (IP) Attorney Roy Kilpatrick charged in a demur rer Tuesday that an indictment against his client, Roscoe Kelley, failed to state a crime because the statute it was based on was unconstitutional. Kelley, Umatilla county com missioner, is charged with the attempted bribery of Deputy Sheriff Clifford Smick last sum mer. Kelley is accused of offer ing Smick $300 to swear falsely that Pendleton city police offic ers broke into a warehouse at Pendair heights, a housing, de velopment west of Pendleton, in July. Guard Company Has Tournament Company A of the National Guard's 186th Infantry recently started a rifle tournement among its five platoons, accord ing to 1st Lieutenant Jack C Phillips. The company shoots about one match per night, half before each Tuesday drill and half fol lowing the drill at the Armory's smallbore range. Phillips hopes to complete competition before mid-November. A trophy is being, offered to the winning platoon, according to Phillips. The shooter with the highest total score for all matches will be given a trophy, he. added. Phillips said the tourney was being conducted to select the best 10 shooters for a company which will then compete among other Guard teams in the state Strand Replies To UW Apology Corvallis (IP) Dr. A. L, Strand, president of Oregon State college, Tuesday replied to an apology made by the Uni versity of Washington m con nection with incidents after the Beaver-Husky football game Sat urday at Seattle. Washington students tried to grab hats of OSC band members, resulting in injuries to several persons. Dr. Strand said, "University of Washington authorities and Seattle police did a wonderful job. The University of Washing ton expressed great regret and did everything possible to handle the situation. Oregon State un derstands how some of these things develop and it holds no animosity toward the University of Washington and its students."
