At CP Friday Night
Central Point One of two
Southern Oregon conference
football games being played
within about five miles of each
other Friday night will be on
the Central Point field. Crater
will be host here to the Klamath
Falls Pelicans while Ashland is
vying in Medford.
The Comet-Pelican fus3 is be
tween two clubs which have yet
to score a conference verdict this
season. Crater is playing its
fourth and final fray within the
loop and Klamath Its third con
flict. Crater Mentor Leonard War
ren said after a Comet scrim
mage last night that the offense
looked good but that he was not
satisfied with the defense at all.
The Comets this week, he re
ported, have gone back to funda
mentals with stress on tackling
and line play.
Pais Defense Work
There has also been work on
pass defense with the hope of
stopping the aerial threat of
Frank Ballard and Tom Ankeny.
The Pelicans have quite elabo
rate maneuvers in trying to
make their pass attack go. The
ball is sometimes exchanged sev
eral times in the backfield before
the ball is heaved. Klamath also
mixes in the old statue of liberty
play.
Crater has had its troubles
with sickness and injury. Line
men Tom Turner, Doug Davis
and Mike Martin, on the sick
list, reported yesterday for their
first workout of the week.
Martin missed last week.

Air Defense
Toughened
By Beavers
Corvallis. Ore. OP The Ore
gon State Beavers held a long
aerial defense practice Wednes
day as Coach Tommy Prothro
sought a way to stop the potent
passing attack of the Washington
State Cougars.
Prothro hopes to counter the
Cougars with a potent running
attack if tailback Joe Francis
and fullback Nub Beamer get
back in top physical condition
by Saturday.
Oregon State College, Corvallis,
Ore. Oregon State's twice-beaten
football team, still full of de
sire and hope, faces another
tough opponent here at Parker
stadium when the strong Wash
ington State Cougars come to
town in the Beavers' homecom
ing game.
It will mark the first time this
season that Oregon State has not
been favored to whip an oppon
ent, something the Beaver
coaches figure might be a good
omen. What's more, Coach Tom
my Prothro has never lost a
home football game in his three
seasons at the Orange helm
either here or in Portland.
Both clubs will be shooting for
their 22nd victory in the long
rivalry that dates back to 1903.
Each has won 21 times, with two
of the games ending in ties. Ore
gon State swept both the 1955
and 1956 games while under
Prothro.
Any chance of an upset OSC
might have depends to a large
extent on the element of injured
players. The Beavers have lost
first-string guard Jim Brackins
indefinitely because of a shoul
der dislocation, and still handi
capped in practice this week
have been Joe Francis. Nub
Beamer, Jim Stinnette, George
Enderle, Howard Hogan and Ed
Kaohelaulii.
Prothro calls WSC the "most
improved team in the confer
ence" this season. Coach Jim
Sutherland had the top passing
team in the nation last fall, but
has combined a strong running
attack this time to make the pass
ing even more effective.
. Gates will open at 12 noon,
with kickoff time slated for 1:30
p.m.
Oregon State College, Corvallis
A homecoming crowd of some
20.000 fans is expected for the

Head Coach,
Aides Quit
At Kansas
By BILL CLARK
Lawrence, Kan. OP) Stagger
ing Kansas, a stranger to foot
ball's big-time since the brief re
gime of George Sauer, today be
gan a cold search for a new coach
following the surprise resigna
tion of Chuck Mather and five
assistants.
University officials, who said
no successor was immediately in
sight, unanimously termed the
mass announcement a "shock."
Mather, 41, and possessor of one
of the nation's most fabled rec
ords as a high school coach at
Massillon, Ohio, attributed the
action to a desire "not to have
our boys competing under the
pressure of saving the coach's
job."
The Jayhawks, racked by re
curring injuries and unspared by
a sweeping flu siege, have won
only one game this fall, losing
four and tieing one. Mather's rec
ord through his original three
year contract which was renew
ed for a year last spring was
6-22-1.
Can't Solve Problem
Mather and five hand-picked
assistants, four brought to K-U
when he assumed the head coach
ing role from J. V. Sikes, said
their decision came after a Tues
day night conference. The group
said it decided "we cannot solve
the football problem" at Kansas
"even by winning the four re
maining games.
Included in the move, college
football's; biggest shuffle of the
year, were assistants Paul Scho
fer, Luri Wartiainen, Dave Putts,
Dick Piskoty and Tom Triplett.
All but Triplett had been with
Mather several seasons, most at
Massillon Washington high
where he won six straight Ohio
prep titles.
Mather and the resigning assist
ants will fulfill their present con
tracts by completing the current
season.

of goalie Terry Sawchuk of the
Detroit Red Wings when he plays
against the Bruins at Boston
Sunday night.
Sawchuk, who quit the Bruins'
in mid-season last year because
his nerves were "shot," is on
the warpath again. And he's
especially furious at the writers,
whom he claims "won't leave
me alone."
After scoring his first shut
out since rejoining the Red
Wings a 4-0 effort against the
New York Rangers Wednesday
night Sawchuk refused to talk
to newsmen.

HOW MR-8 PROTECTS YOUR CAR
Here's the complete all-around cooling system protection you get with "Zerex," the only
permanent type anti-freeze containing MR-8, Du Pont's special chemical rust inhibitor.
1. Works In all waters
Du Pont "Zerex" anti-freeze with MR-8 is com
patible with all types of water. Even in hard water
the inhibitor stays in perfect solution. Hard water
makes the inhibitors used in many anti-freezes
precipitate out, materially reducing their protec
tive qualities.
2. Will not rot rubber hose
"Zerex" with MR-8 will not rot or soften rubber
hose because it contains no oil. Oil is extremely
harmful to some radiator hose, softening or rot
ting it sometimes in one season. Then the hose
may collapse or burst, causing overheating and
engine damage.
So don't take chances this winter. See your dealer now and get the complete winter-long pro
tection only "Zerex" with MR-8 gives. It's the premium, permanent type anti-freeze made
and guaranteed by Du Pont . . . your best assurance of quality and satisfaction.

Stinging Remarks on Baseball
In Report of House Committee
Portland (IP) Sen. Richard
L. Neuberger (D-Ore.), disclosed
here yesterday that a forthcom
ing report on organized baseball
from the House judiciary com
mittee will contain "many sting
ing and abrasive" comments of
the invasion of the West Coast
by the major leagues.
Sen. Neuberger said he re
ceived that word from Rep. Em
manuel Cellar, chairman of the
committee.
Neuberger had asked Cellar to
investigate the question of what
Neuberger called the major
league "pirating" of territory
long occupied by Pacific Coast
league teams.

The Oregon Democrat declar

"are alert to the cynicism with
which the dollar sign has been

He admitted, however, that
"baseball probably cannot be
touched by effective legislative
action.

Knockdowns Rule Out
DeMarco was dropped from

Red Raiders
Pace Passing
By UNITED PRESS
Southern Oregon hopes to
wrap up the Oregon Collegiate
Conference football title Satur
day afternoon at La Grande in a
game with Eastern Oregon. The
Red Raiders cinched at least a
tie for the crown last week by
defeating OCE 21-19.
Oregon Tech meets OCE at
Klamath Falls in a homecoming
battle while Portland State
meets British Columbia in a
non-conference clash at Port
land. In statistics, OCE led in total
offense with an average of 86.8
per game but Southern Oregon
led in passing with a 125.8 aver
age and Oregon Tech in rushing
with a 206.2 mark.
Individually, Ron Maurer of
SOC led in rushing with 7.8 per
carry for 495 yards, Jim Bowlen
of OCE led in passing with 36
out of 74 for 60 yards and Wy
man Gernhart of OCE topped
the scoring with 48 points.

PERMANENT TYPE
3. Neutralizes all acids
The seven different metals used in modern cool
ing systems can become corroded when a per
manent anti-freeze solution turns acid. However,
"Zerex" with MR-8 has extra "reserve alkalin
ity" that gives winter-long protection from the
corrosive action of cooling system acids. '
4. Keeps rust In suspension
"Zerex" with MR-8 keeps the cooling systems of
today's complex engines clean and free-flowing.
Because "Zerex" contains no oil, it does not
cause rust to stick to cooling system surfaces and
passages, which can cause over
engine damage. -

hunting and Fishing
Southern (Oregon
By MEL
The past week has been pretty
good both on the shooting and
fishing front. Good weather here
in the Rogue valley made the
fishing fair to tops and the oc
casional storms and winds east
of the "mountains produced some
fast limits on waterfowl.
The Rogue is in excellent
shape and there are enough fish
in the river to produce good an
gling. While most of the pres
sure has been in the Robertson
Bridge to Galice section, Med
ford anglers had a field day re
cently in the Bybee Bridge area.
The fish have been running
smaller on . the average than the
winter run but some really
bright ones have been netted up
to 10 pounds.
HOT SHOT CONSISTENT
The most consistent lure has
been the Hot Shot. This long
beaked Eddie Pope creation
has astounded fishermen here
for the past four years. When
Eddie first came through these
parts and liberally distributed
some of these lures to local
fishermen and guides no one
thought they would be worth
carrying to the river. At least
one guide that I know gave
his lures away (he has been
moaning about it ever since)
because he thought they were
just another hair brained
scheme for catching fishermen!
It didn't take long before
the boys-who-will-iry-anylhing
once found they were surefire
fish catchers in the fall run.
Some anglers predicted that
they would only last a year as
is the case with many lures,
but this year is no exception
they are still the best pro
ducer. While most of the colors
have been used to catch fish I
suppose that the most consist
ent producers are the White
With Red Head, Sparkle Plen
ty in White, Transparent Sil
ver and the Silver with the
Red Throat. They make an ex
cellent boat fished lure for

DU PONT GUARANTEE
"Zerex" anti-freeze will protect the cooling
system of your car from freezing, rust or cor
rosion for one full winter and will not leak out
if used in a properly operating, watertight
cooling system and if used according to Du Pont
directions printed on the "Zerex" container.
Du Pont guarantees too, that "Zerex" will
not boil away and can be used with either high
or low-opening thermostats, at high or low
altitudes in extreme driving or weather con
ditions. "Zerex" will not harm rubber hoses,
gaskets, pump packing, metal parts of the cool
ing system or car finish. "Zerex" mixes per

or deep depending on the cur
rent and how much the boat
is held in it.
No one seems to know what
the steelhead thinks this lure
is, but, as long as he lakes it.
who cares?
MASS MIGRATION
Dr. E. V. Meyerding of Med
ford told me the other day that
his party hunting in the Klamath
basin saw a mass migration of
ducks and geese which lasted
for over four hours.
The doctor said that the party
limited by 9 a.m. and someone
noticed that the air was full of
ducks flying several hundred
yards high with an over cover of
geese. Seemingly these birds
were not interested iri anything
the Klamath valley had to offer
but were heading into the south
land. .
It seems a shame that these
birds did not stop for with many
thousands of additional water
fowl in the area the hunting
would have been superb.
DEPENDS ON WEATHER
Increasing numbers of birds
are reported in Warner valley.
Shooting there will depend as
elsewhere, on the weather.
Many hunters hope for a
storm but it has been my ex
perience that when a big storm
front moves in the birds ride
out in front of it. I recall a
few years ago when we had a
split season, the fields were
teeming with birds and they
all moved out the day before
the second season opened
right in front of a big storm.
So if you want to wish for
some duck weather wish
for rain squalls, high winds,
fog and anything else that will
be miserable to the hunter but
hope that there is no really
big storm.
