Brown, p candidate for gover nor of the state, has suggested the legislature study the feasi bility of a space age, atomic and electronics fair. In letters to Assemblyman Lester McMillan (D-Los An geles), chairman of the State Assembly Committee on In dustrial Relations, and Don ald Doyle (R-Lafayette), chair man of the Assembly Educa tion committee, Brown out lined his proposal. 1 Brown said the purpose of ihe suggested space age fair should be to provoke greater public awareness of the sub ' ject and to arouse Califor nians, particularly young peo ple, to the vast new scientific revolution. He said a feasibility study might determine that public underwriting of the project could be kept to a minimum. Brown urged that the fair be planned so that it could be moved about to Los An geles, San Francis -i, San Diego, Fresno, Sacramento, San Jose and other cities in the state. Ken Venturi Golf Champ Phoenix, Ariz. (IP) Ken Venturi, with his new crown of "King of the Golfers" firm ly .in place, leaves today for Tucson, Ariz., and a shot at his third consecutive fchamp' ionship on the winter tour. With his self - admitted "toughest victory" behind him after scoring a one-stroke win in the $15,000 Phoenix Open, the 26-year-old San Francisco shot-maker is in a position to follow out his de sign, which is: "Win 'em all." The youthful fairway artist now is the only pro on the regular circuit who has shown anything resembling mastery of the crown. He is the only man to win two major tourn aments in a row this year. He beat Jay Hebert of San- ford, Fla., and the fast-clos ing Walter Burkemo, Frank lin Hills, Hich., by a single stroke witlr a 274. Burkemo and Hebert tied for second each. At 279 came John McMullin, Alameda, Calif., and Bill Collins, Gros singer, N. Y., a pair of dark horses, each collecting $950.

The Multnomah county coroner's office said it be lieved death was caused by a heart ailment. Mrs. Marchbank grabbed the steering wheel and maneuvered the car to a park ing lot.

Portland Considers Transit Problem Portland (IP) The Port land city council met again today to wrestle with the transit problem and to con sider an emergency ordinance to grant a 25 cent fare to Rose City Transit Company. The firm has served notice it will suspend service after Feb. 26 if a fare boost is not given by Thursday.

Thornton said he probably would not have available until Tuesday an opinion on whether Public Utility Com missioner Howard Morgan has authority to review any rate increase which might be granted.

By GENE BRYANT United Press Sports Writer The stage was set today for a mid-season showdown battle between California and UCLA next weekend when the Bears invade the Southland in quest of sole possession of first place in the Pacific Coast confer ence basketball race some thing the Bruins are also after. Both clubs, now tied for the PCC lead with 5-1 records, were given some breathing space Saturday when Stan ford pulled its second major upset of the season by hand ing Oregon State a 69-55 de feat at Corvallis. The Indians had previously beaten the San Francisco Dons, current ly ranked third in the nation. Idaho (5-2), Oregon State (5-3) and Southern California (4-3) are far from out of it yet but California is current ly in the drivers' seat for a possible berth in the Western regionals in March. UCLA, still on probation, is ineligi ble for the title and NCAA playoffs. Free Throws Kill Beavers Although putscored from the field, 23 to 18, Stanford put on an amazing show at the free throw line to dump the Beavers, who seem to have mastered the knack of beating some of the best teams on the Coast while losing to some of the weaker clubs. In the only other game in volving a PCC team Saturday, California easily defeated Santa Clara 54-46, in an after noon tilt at Berkeley. Bear regulars sat out most of the second half but the Broncos were never able to more than hold their own after falling far behind in the first period Only two games were play ed in the West Coast Athletic conference Saturday night and Pepperdine probably wishes it hadn't been in one of them. USF Sets School Record A dead-eyed San Francisco quintet ran wild to hand the Waves a 105-59 battering as the Dons racked up their fifth straight conference victory. USF was unbeatable at a bet ter than 50 per cent clip. Guard Gene Brown and for ward Mike Farmer led the winners with 22 and 17 points respectively. St. Mary's upped its WCAC record to 3-0 as the Gaels coasted to an easy 63-50 vic tory over Loyola. Tom Dona hue had 20 points for the Lions while Dick Sigaty scored 15 for the Gaels. Delany Captures BAA Mile Run Boston (W Unbeatable miler Ron Delany's Irish brogue is fascinating but con fusing. At least that's one explana tion of why it was generally understood that the 22-year-old Dubliner, via Villanova, was out to set an indoor mile record Saturday night in -the Boston AA meet at the Gar den. Delany didn't establish a new mark, nor did he come close to his own best time, winning easily with a 4:05.3 clocking. But he said quite matter-of-factly after the race that he had nevet meant to go for a record. Jones Nabs 2-Mile Charles (Deacon) Jones of the University of Iowa passed Yugoslav Velisa Mugosa on the last turn and won the two mile in 9:01.1 with six feet to spare. Western Michigan univer sity sprinter Ira Murchison won the dash. Charlie Spratt and Charlie Jenkins captured the hurdles and 600, respec tively. Dave Scurlock of the Uni versity of North Carolina won the 1,000 with a time of 2:11.1 only one-tenth second off the meet record set in 1950 by Roscoe Browne.
