    SO Raider Outlook Bright
Although Turnout Small
Ashland With a week of
practice behind them the Red
Raiders of Southern Oregon
college are beginning to look
like a team that could go
all the way to a second Ore
gon Collegiate conference
grid title, according to head
coach Al Akins.
Akins feels the small turn
out in cadidates for the 22 po
sitions has addowed him to go
into more detail and special
ized training than would oth
erwise be possible if he had
a larger squad.
Only 31 players have been
turning out for the two-a-day
practices and surprisingly
enough only one injury has
been reported. Larry Crans
ton, freshman from Medford,
slightly sprained an ankle
and is being forced to light
workouts each day for about
a week.
Last year's starting quar
terback, Lance Locke, has
been especially sharp in his
passing and faking and the
Haider coaches agreed that

was the best they had seen
for the men of SOC this early
l npractice sessions
Del Brood and Eldon Fran
cis have been showing some
speed from trie halfback slots
along with Larry Maurer and
newcomeh. Dave Wilbur.
Offense was not holding
all the limelight but sharing
it with the defense while stal
warts Dick Smith and Marion
Jack busted up plays left and
right during Friday's scrim
mages. Thus far in practice, the
Raiders have been splitting
their plays between running
and passing with Locke hit
ting on a number of occas
ions for good gains.
The Raiders have only five
days of practice before the
first game on September 20
at 8 p.m. in Ashland against
the visiting airmen from Mof
fett Air Base.
To date no definite start
ers have been named and
Akins-has said that he may
have to go clear up to game
time before he' names his de
fensive and offensive units.

Machen To Try
For Early Stop
Gothenburg, Sweden -(EH)
Eddie Machen of Redding,
Calif., is expected to try for
an early knockout when he
meets Sweden's unbeaten In-
gemar Johansson today in
their battle of world heavy
weight contenders.
Machen is rated a 2-1 fa
vorite but European observ
ers believe Johansson can
outpoint the hardhitting Am
erican if the rugged Swede
survives the first four rounds.

Mt. Shasta Fights Back

McDougald's Homer Helps
Yanks to Win Over White
Sox, 5-4; and Possible Tie
By United Press International
Gil McDougald, suffering
through one of his worst sea
sons, assured the New York
Yankees at least a tie for the
American league pennant Sat
urday when he hit a three-run
homer in the eighth inning
that sunk the Chicago White
Sox, 5-4.
McDougald's homer, struck
off loser Early Wynn, over
came a 4-2 Chicago lead and
reduced the Yankees' pennant
clinching -"magic number to
one.
That means they can wrap
up their ninth pennant in the
last 10 years by winning one
game in a double-header with
Kasas City today. One loss by
the White Sox in a twin-bill
against Washington will have
the same effect.
Little Bobby Shantz started
for the Yankees and went un
til the seventh inning when
Murray Dickson came on and
received credit for his 10th
victory.
Cal McLish. of Cleveland
turned in his 15th victory of
the year when he beat Boston
4-1, with' a seven-hit effort.
The only run McLish gave up
was a fourth-inning homer by

.Mt. Shasta took quick ad

turable Charley Coe, a scram

tomer when the chips were

al Amateur Golf champion
ship Saturday as he crushed
upstart Tommy Aaron of
Gainesville, Ga., 5-4, in the
finals of the national tourna
ment.
Calm, and often cautious,
when his erratic long tee and
iron shots got him in trouble,
Coe watched the 21-year-old
University of Florida student
fire his best shots-and then
fall back. '

Decisions Tibbs
Philadelphia -flJPD-Unbeat-en
Len Matthews, fighting
only 10 months and owner of
a 14-bout winning streak aft
er his unanimous triumph
over Tommy Tibbs, said he
hopes to be . lightweight
champion in another 10
months.
While Matthews made his
national television debut suc
cessfully against the stubby
Tibbs at the Arena Friday
night, many of his followers
were disappointed because he
failed to make the Boston
strong boy bis 13th kayo victim.
Matthews staggered Tibbs
in the fourth, fifth and ninth
rounds but never was able
to floor him. -
Judge Bill Hall scored it
50-37 for Matthews under
Pennesylvania's five -point
system while Judge Jim
Weston carded it 49-43. Ref
eree Pete Tomasco favored
Matthews, 49-42. United
Press International gave the
bout to Matthews, 50-40.
Solo Record Pilot
Issues Challenge
Pendleton (DPD Marion
(Pat) Boling, holder of the
world's solo distance record
for a single-engined plane said
here Friday that he is ready
to challenge anyone to break
his record of 6,980 miles set
Aug. 1.
The 32-year-old airline pi
lot, here as a guest of honor
for the 47th annual Pendle
ton roundup, said that sever
al attempts to crack his rec
ord have failed "because they
are hastily put together ef
forts." "I'm still getting over my
trip-a month later," Boling
said. "And anybody who says
it doesn't take something out
of you is wrong. It does."
Boling flew a single-engined
Beechcraft from Manila to
Pendleton to break a world
mark set in 1949 by the late
Bill Odom.
his advantage dwindle to one-
up. He won the 20th, lost the
21st when he hit a trap.
"But I wasn't worried," he
said. "I knew my game had
returned. For 11 holes Satur
day morning I was all over
the lot. But on the 12th hole
I started hitting straight and
my shots were true. Note that
I was one under par for six
holes on the middle part of
the afternoon round."
This type of golf may have
missed out against Aaron Fn
day when the Southeastern
champion shot a three-under-
par 67. But Saturday the pres
sure told.
Tough Tommy was In
trouble all day long. Even on
the practice tee before play
started, the personable South
eastern amateuer champion,
was hooking his shots a sure
sign that he was feeling the
tension that come with cham
pionship competition.
And when he took to the
course it was the same way.
"But I was okay going into
the 22nd hole only one
down," he said. "Then every
thing went wrong."
That's where Coe won five
consecutive holes, one with a
birdie, four with pars, .to ice
the match as he drew 6-up.
For Coe the victory was
another milestone in a great
amateur golfing career. Now
34 years old, the wealthy shot
maker first hit the big head
lines in 1949 when he won
his first National' crown by
trouncing Rufus King of
Wichita Falls, Tex., 11-10 In
the finals. That was just 10
years and nine days ago to
this day.
Aaron had been two-under-par
for his nine rounds earli
er in the tournament. But Sat
urday he was anything but a
ball of fire. He was six over
Saturday morning and four
over for the 14 holes in the
afternoon.
