o Wood Gives Oregon Edge In Fracas With Beavers By HAL WOOD San Francisco OP) It's "big game" week from Los An geles to Seattle on Saturday the last chance a flock of coaches have to "get off the hook" wjth the alumni this sea son. No matter how bad the year, the alumni at most of the Pa cific Coast conference schools are well satisfied if they can corafc up with a victory in the "big game." At Los Angeles the tradition al fight is between USC and UCLA; in San Francisco, Stan ford vs. Cal.; in Oregon, Oregon State vs. Oregon; and Washing ton, University of Washington vs. Washington St. Past performances in these games mean nothing. Anyone making a bet and giving more than one point in either direc tion just hasn't looked at the facts as presented by history. For Instance For instance, when Coach Lynn (Pappy) Waldorf was tak ing three California teams in a row to the Rose Bowl in 47-48-49, the Golden Bears always were heavily favored over Stan ford in the traditional battle, us ually by 13 to 20 points. So Cal wins the first one 21-18; the second, 7-6. The last time USC went to the Rose Bowl after the 1954 season, UCLA gave the Trojans a send-off with a 34-0 shellacking. And Oregon lost four games before playing last year's Oregon State Rose Bowl team to a 14-14 tie. So take a look at these "big game" selections but don't bet on 'em: Stanford over California: Coach Pete Elliott is getting his first taste of "big game" fever, and he can't figure why 90,000 fans would want to see his club with a 1-8 record, play Stanford, which has 5-4. If the Indians kick the extra point, it could be l-20. Bet With Morris Oregon- over Oregon State: On the premise that one point will decide it, we'll take the bowl bound Webfoots on the strength of Jack Morris' kicking excel lence. How about 14-13? UCLA over Southern Cali fornia: The West's greatest coach, Red Sanders, has a 5-3 mark against the Trojans and off the records the Bruins should win by about 20 points. We'll say 19-18.

Road Race Ban Favored By S. Hanks By HAL WOOD Sa'n Francisco (CP) Smilin' Sam Hanks, the crew-cut winner of the 1951 Indianapolis "500," has joined the chours demand ing that "open road" racing be abolished in all countries. The 43-year-old driver, who will end 22 years of racing on Dec. 1 when he competes in a stock car event at Riverside, Calif., said that he agreed with Piero Taruffii of Italy, who wrote in a national magazine re cently that the "dangerous open road races" should be halted. Taruffi is the only driver in his tory to win all four of the ma jor open road races: In Italy, Sicily, France and Mexico. No Way To Protect "There is no way to protect either the drivers or the spec tators in open road racing," said Hanks. "This particularly is true of the big .races staged in Eur ope and Mexico. "However, I believe that races on closed tracks, such as In dianapolis and other tracks around the country do a great service by testing inventions for our pleasure cars." Hanks, here for an oil dealers convention, said he was quitting at the age of 43 while he was "all in one piece." "I've been racing 22 years and I feel my reflexes are as good as ever," he said. "But in all my racing I've never had a major accident, never had a broken bone." . Cool Canadian Air Moves Into North Sections of Nation By UNITED PRESS A broad mass of cool Canadian air descended over the northern rim of the nation today, causing snow flurries from the plains through the Great Lakes. At least one man was killed Wednesday night when a sud den, short-lived storm darted out of the cool mass over Detroit. Authorities said at least 15 homes were damaged in a four block area where high winds battered the east side in tornadic fashion. The U.S. weather bureau said the storm followed the direc tion of a tornado tunnel, ripping roofs from houses and tearing garages from their foundations. Worker Killed One gust of wind ripped off part of the roof of Chrysler Corporation's Forge plant, kill ing one worker and injuring 11 others. Below the belt of Canadian air being fed through the North ern Plains and spreading in all directions, a general cooling pre vailed. Nighttime temperatures were "surprisingly" uniform, ac cording to the weather bureau, with 20s common from the West ern Great Lakes through the Northern Plains and Plateau states. Most temperatures in the ex treme South were in the 40s, except for Southeast Texas and the Southern Mississippi Valley where warming and a few light showers followed a movement of southerly winds. Extreme Lows Extreme lows were reported at West Yellowstone, Mont., 10 below zero, and parts of Colo rado and Wyoming, 6 below. There were several light show ers below the "snow flurry front along the northern border, and a few sprinkles in the foggy mid-section of the West Coast. Scattered snow flurries occurred in the Rockies and the Central Plateau. The weather picture today showed generally fair skies over most of the country, excepting the snow flurry areas the Cen tral and Northern Plains,- the Great Lakes and the Rockies. Crown Zellerbach Sees Third Best Year San Francisco (IP) President A. B. Layton of Crown Zeller bach Corp. said today his firm looks forward to the third best year in its history despite a strike in British Columbia. Layton sized up the prospects for Crown Zellerbach in a speech to the Security Analysts of San Francisco. Sales for October set an all time high, Layton said, and in coming orders for November continue strong. -r --T.n-wn J-U311il-X UUAIW-U UJ twu ucia, uitis. x ---- hold of Layne's pass on San Francisco's 24-yard line in second quarter of game at De troit, Lions clobbered Californians, 31-10, to go into tie for first place. (International) Turkey Shoot This Sunday Medford Gun club will hold its pre-Thanksgiving turkey shoot at the club grounds west of Crater Lake highway Four Corners on Sunday.

Student Workers Reach New High In Job Earnings Corvallis A record of $126, 122 was earned last year by Oregon State college students and student wives at part-time and summer jobs secured through the college employment and housing service, college of ficials reported. A total of 1731 men students and 414 women students and wives registered with the college employment service last year. Steady part-time jobs were found for 391 men and 166 wom en and a host of odd jobs were provided for other students whose working hours were limited. "Few students found it nec essary to withdraw from school because of financial difficulties provided they were willing to take what work could be found and did a satisfactory job while employed," according to the an nual report prepared by Mrs. Rose Duthie, campus employment-housing secretary. "Many students put in a tre mendous number of working hours and still did very com mendable school work," the re port noted. School year steady part-time work and odd-time jobs brought students $77,460; summer work netted $33,707; and work for board and room by 75 students was valued at $14,955. Earnings of student wives who are work ing full-time in campus offices and downtown businesses are not included in the total. Jobs included work in various campus and community offices and businesses; farm, forestry and yard work; baby sitting, house work and day-time child care; waitress and dish washing duties; truck driving and mov ing help; and sales and summer resort work. Minimum rate of pay is $1 per hour but skilled and semi skilled labor brought' up to $2 per hour. Mrs. Duthie had a word of cau tion, however, for student wives. Sharply rising enrollments and increases in the number of married students on campus has brought a surplus of trained office workers and in some cases the wives had to accept any kind of employment that could be found, she reported. She ad vised student couples to check employment possibilities "be fore marriage" if the wife must work to help the husband through school. End to Mass X-Ray Programs Sought Washington (IP) - Surgeon General Leroy E. Burney called today for an end to community wide mass X-ray programs for spotting tuberculosis cases. The government's chief health officer said such surveys should be restricted to the "greatest risk" groups because of poten tial radiation hazards. He men tioned hospitalized persons, low income groups, migrant workers and persons known to have been exposed to the disease. Burney urged communities to use the tuberculin skin test as the first step in discovering tuberculosis. Chest X-rays, he added, should be limited to those showing a positive reaction to the skin test. He sent the recommendations to the state and local health officers. He explained they were based on the findings of a group of medical experts summoned here recently to consider the problem of X-ray radiation and the changing tuberculosis picture. 'jj Jin - iai- ctoro Tn-nVo- CRS TVtmit T.inns Is unable to erab hunting and Fishing Southern Oregon By MEL The "most disappointing sea son in years" continues to plague Rogue fishermen. The water was too low and clear then came the rains and the water came up and muddy now the river is clear and still poor fishing. Earlier this week Chuck Plat ko, river guide, reported seeing many fish rolling in the river but for some unexplained reason they refused the juicy offerings of his customers. Most anglers were sure that a day or two af ter the clearing would be tops but all reports indicated that if anything the fishing was poorer. One angler hiked down to Rai ney falls and reported that in a couple of hours of watching he didn't see a fish either above or below the falls. TURN TO ILLINOIS Many anglers are now turn ing their eyes towards the Il linois and hoping that it won't be a repetition of the Rogue season which closes with the end of the month. Encouraging reports are filtering in from the Smith with a number of Chinooks landed. Most of the fish were taken on anchovies but one angler limited with a half ounce Silver Hot Rod. He al so took a large steelhead in the pool below the south fork of the river and reported that this was the first of this kind taken that far upstream. This would seem to indicate that the steelhead are starting to enter the river and should furnish good fishing in the fore part of December. HUNTERS LURED A lot of eager hunters are be ing lured into the Klamath basin by the news that the "northerns are in!" Most of them on return ing are saying that the "north erns" are few and far between. Many hunters are now begin ing to resign themselves to the obvious fact that the hunting just isn't what is used to be and not too long ago either. The winter season which is just commencing is by far the most interesting, fish-wise, of any season we have in the Rogue valley and surrounding areas. Although the Rogue, itself, clos es from Dec. 1 to Jan. 15, the Illinois usually furnishes some excellent steelhead fishing. If anything, the Illinois is more interesting to fish than the Rogue for it is extremely rugged and for the most part the fish run larger. There are eager Illi nois fishermen who have, stated that they," wouldn't trade one rock on the Illinois for the whole Rogue river when it comes to winter steelhead." This may sound a little over enthusiastic but it gives some idea of the kind of fishing that can be expected there. RUN TO CHETCO There are also many anglers " who take a run over to the BONNIES OPEN TOURNEY Cincinnati OP) Cincinnati will play St. Bonaventure and Marshall college meets Xavier in the first round of the two-day University of Cincinnati In vitational Basketball Tourna ment starting Dec. 13. The win ners play for the title and the losers meet in .the consolation. Washington HP) Second ranked heavyweight contender Zora Folley of Phoenix, Ariz., and Carvin Sawyer of Pitts burgh, a protege of former world champion Joe Walcott, have signed for a 10 round tele vision bout at Capitol Arena Jan. 1. rill METAL WORKS Commercial Industrial Residential Sheet Metal Work Stainless, Galvanized' and Copper Fabrication 2237 West Main PHONE SP 2-4440 REES Cheico and when the fish are in you can tangle with some busters up in the 15-20 pound class. These fish are only a short distance from the ocean and still retain that vicious ness that has kept them from being seal-bait for the past four years. Closer than the Chetco but needing a California license is the Smith, a rocky and very rugged stream which sports some very big and wild fish. This coming month is really the start of this fishing and it will continue till the end of February. TO SMITH RIVER If the angler doesn't get en ough big-fish fishing by this time he can go to the Smith and fish below the 101 bridge where the season never closes. I might say in this connection that last year in April they had their biggest runs there and many anglers (mostly local ones) had the kind of fishing that grandpa had with his old cane pole. So, don't look back to the sum mer and the good times you had look forward! for this winter season in these parts is terrific. Moore Schedules Portland Fight Portland (IP) Archie Moore, veteran light heavyweight cham pion, will fight Robert Rischer, California state heavyweight king, in a 10-rounder here Nov. 29, Promoter Tommy Moyer said today. Gresham Radio Man Killed in Accident Gresham (IP) Robert Wayne Amsberry, 29, an announcer for radio station KEX, was killed early today when his car left Highway 26 three miles east of here and struck a telephone pole. Multnomah county police said there were no witnesses to the accident which occurred about 2:30 a.m. Amsberry was driving to Mt. Hood to stay at the cabin of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Amsberry. Police said he may have fallen asleep at the wheel. Amsberry's car traveled 333 feet after leaving the highway before striking the pole. Amsberry had been known as "Uncle Bob" on a program he originated for youngsters called "The Squirrel Cage." He also has worked for Walt Disney and was to have worked for him again later this year. Elkins Ordered to Appear in Court Portland (IP) James B. El kins today was ordered to ap pear in Circuit Court next Wed nesday for a hearing on his mo tion seeking to quash 10 bootleg ging indictments returned against him. The Elkins motion claims that he was compelled to testify in connection with matters that would tend to incriminate him. It asserts that Elkins was in dicted in violation of his state and federal constitutional rights. The indictments were returned at the height of Portland's vice uproar and accused Elkins of committing an act grossly dis turbing the public peace, outrag ing the public decency and in juring public morals. Daily's U-Drive Medford Airport Thursday, November 21, 195 Marine Fisheries Ask Change in High Seas Fishing by Portland (IP) The Pacific Ma rine Fisheries commission asked Secretary of State John Foster Dulles to urge Japan to change its practice of net fishing on the high seas. The commission, concluding a 3-day convention here Wednes day also indorsed a resolution urging that a zone be established in the Pacific before the 1958 season in which there would be a halt to all fishing in waters where a large portion of North American salmon are found. The commission's request to Dulles on Japanese net fishing backed up a resolution adopted earlier in Vancouver, B.C. by the International North Pacific Fisheries Commission which pro tested against a fishery operated off the Aleutian Islands by Japa nese. Two Alternatives The U. S. section of the Van couver resolution said that if Japanese high seas fishing was on the same scale as in 1957 and if it takes as many Bristol bay red salmon the U. S government would face two alternatives. One would be to close our fishery en tirely and deprive Bristol bay fishermen of a season in 1958 to achieve a reasonable escapement. The other would be to allow fish ermen to fish seven days a week as the Japanese do and thus de stroy the cycle. The commission is made up of members from Oregon, Washing ton and California. Other recommendations in cluded: Closure of the petrale sole sea son from Dec. 15 to April 15; abolish the present closed sea son on sablefish; study advisabil ity of a winter closure on all other troll fish; ask for more Convention Delegates Urge Signature Portland (IPI A telegram from delegates to the 52nd an nual convention of the Associa tion of Oregon Counties Wednes day urged Gov. Robert Holmes to sign, at his earliest conveni ence, legislation removing the state from the property tax field. Ninety county judges and com missioners have registered for the convention at Imperial hotel headquarters. The tax measure was passed by the recent special session of the Oregon Legislature and would take the state out of the prop erty tax field except for debt service. The telegram urging the Governor to sign the bill was sent by Judge Raymond A. Lathrop of Josephine county, president of the association. F. L. Phipps, secretary, said that the present law amounts to a tax on the counties whenever the state tax is levied because counties must remit regardless of their own financial situations.

Lakeview Citizens See Business Boom Lakeview (IP) Citizens of Lakeview looked forward today to a spurt of business activity on word that the Atomic Energy commission will finance con struction of uranium reduction mill near the southeastern Ore gon city. But the Lakeview Mining com pany which will operate the mill has already hung out a "no help wanted" sign to forestall what the firm feared would be an in flux of job hunters. The AEC announced that a plant costing $2,600,000 and pro ducing 210 tons of uranium con centrate, or "yellow cake, daily would be built by the Lakeview Mining company, which already operates the only two uranium producing mines in Oregon. Dr. Garth Thornburg of Grand Junction, Colo., president of the Lakeview firm, said the present operation would be speeded up and the present crew of 40 would be increased to 70 in order to increase the stockpile of ore from the mines. An additional 60 men will be employed in the mill. Dr. Thornburg pointed out that preliminary engineering work must be completed first, and negotiations for a construc tion contract probably won't get under way until sometime next spring possibly around the first of April. Flu Epidemic Said Over in Some Areas Washington (IP) The Public Health Service said today "the peak of the current epidemic of influenza probably has been reached in some parts of the United States." It said the 780,000 new flu cases were reported or estimated by 36 states for the week ended Nov. 16. This raised to 6,630,000 the number of cases reported since the outbreak of Asian flu last summer. The weekly total was down 320,000 from the figure reported for the previous week, however.
