Minnesota: Coach Murray Warmath sent the Gophers through a drill emphasizing pass defense. Notre Dame: Coach Terry Brennan promised the Notre Dame football squad rugged practice sessions today and Wednesday. Complains Officiating week Hayes blasted the offi cials for permitting the de fense to play "dirty football" while watching the offensive too closely. Mitchell said "never in my playing or coaching days have I witnessed such an exhi bition.' Oklahoma beat Kan sas, 43-0. Hayes, meanwhile, said he thought he was "on the way to getting it straightened out." He said he was "encouraged" by the officiating in the Big Ten last Saturday, with the possible exception of the Indiana-Ohio State game. Mitchell was backed up in his charges . by Big Eight Commissioner Reaves Peters, who said he had heard the "officiating was apparently lousy." 1 Peters told Mitchell to give the officials who work ed the game a "zero" in his report and they wouldn't be back next year. Lynch Stops Cummings In Ninth New York (UPD Eddie Lynch, a light-hitting New York welterweight, must have felt like a pitcher blast ing a home run when he stopped Charley Cummings of Philadelphia Monday night in the ninth round at St. Nich olas arena. Lynch, who had only one knockout to his credit in 1 8 previous bouts, sent Cum mings flying through the ropes with a solid right to jthe chin. The Philadelphian scram bled back into the ring and regained his feet at the count of nine. However, he ap peared so groggy that referee Barney Felix stopped the bout at 1:59 of the ninth session. Lynch, favored at 11 to 5, weighed 151 pounds while Cummings scaled 14814. Cum mings was a substitute for Tony DiBiase of New York, who sustained a nose injury in training.

Wolfgang Larrazabal, presi dent of the government junta. Moscow, Idaho-(UPD-Punch-less Idaho drilled hard today in preparation for next Sat urday's contest with the Uni versity of Arizona. MedfordWTribune SIPdDIKTS Fanfare Coach Andy Knudsen, fol lowing the 53 to 0 beating at the hands of Medford Friday night, offered words of praise i to his Klamath Union High school football team. He said: "You may all hold your heads high. You played a fine first half - you are as good a first team as they are -it was the second, third and fourth teams that beat you." The foregoing quote is from sportswriter Wayne Scott's story of the game in the Klamath Falls Herald News. TOLL OF NINE Scolt, mentioning the loll the three-deep plalooning by Medford took on Klam ath, listed a total of nine Pelican players injured in the "rough, hard - fought scrap," forcing Knudsen lo empty his bench lo gain re inforcements. Those he listed hurl were Blake Griggs, an eye in jury; Gary Kranenburg, John Hancock, Estin Kiger and Larry Bunyard, knee injuries; Sieve Stiles, a hip ailment; Joe Cox. an ankle injury, and Gary Hancock. dislocated jaw. and Ron House, who was knocked out. ' GOOD. HARD PLAY BEST We like to see Medford's Black Tornado play good hard football. It's the only way to play the game well. Football is basically a rough sport. But, we hope the foregoing list of injuries doesn't serve' to give the Tornado a bad reputation. There were some complaints. On the other side, we saw a Klamath player tackle a Medford man by his face guard - strictly danger ous and illegal. SCORE ALMOST LARGER We hadn't looked on it in the same way, bul lhe Black Tornado matched Klamath Falls prognostica tions in whacking the Peli cans 53 to 0. Scott in his account of the game, speaks of KU as a 50-poinl under dog. Guess he did some addi tion with Marshfield's 47 to 0 win over Klamath and Medford 3 lo 0 nod over Marshfield. Medford came close lo making it S3 or 60 lo 0. however. Len Griggs fought into the end zone on the last play of the game but . officials ruled him inches short of a touch down. LONG SECOND HALF Last Friday's Medford Klamath game second half, particularly the third quarter, seemed to run overly long. But, we don't entirely agree with Pel Coach Knudsen. He commented, "That was the longest second half in the history of football." THROUGH AS GRID REF C. A. (Dutch) Meyer, Cen tral Point, a football and basketball game official in this area for some 13 years, says he's' hung up his fool ball cleats for good and will don basketball fool wear only occasionally as a fill-in referee in the 1958 59 season.

And, being blessed with the Sport OSCAR FRALEY I By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International New York -(UPD- The guy who said "time is money" must have been a jockey. The midget millionaires have had something big going for them ever since the inven tion of the automobile made it necessary for horses to find another dodge. They get 10 per cent of whatever the oat burner pulls, down and that ain't hay. Like the little matter of earning $78,614 in a cham pagne break of eight minutes, 42 2-5 seconds. That's been the total payoff to the five riders of the past winners of the Garden State, the world's richest horse race, which goes up for grabs ' at the New Jersey track Satur day. It's enough to make a man quit feeding his son vita mins. Good Day's Wages Hank Moreno won the in augural running in 1953. For his one minutes and 46 sec onds of labor his payoff was $15,128 the winner's purse that year being $151,280. If there still are 60 seconds in an hour, that's a Wage of $513,756 per hour of $4,110, 048 per eight hour day. As a man who flunked algebra for three straight years, I can't figure out what that would be for a five-day week. In the second running, Eric Guerin booted Summer Tan home and picked up the jockey's commission of $15 109. For that kind of a pay off, you'd think he'd carry the horse. The next time, in 1955, An gel Valenzuela won on a colt named Prince John. There's no question about who receiv ed the royal share. Prince John got his usual quota of oats. Angel was in the clouds when he picked up $15,791 for his one minute, 42 second ride. Two-Time Winner Willie Hartack has won the race the past two years, earn ing a total of $32,586 in a matter of three minutes, 29 seconds. He scored with Bar bizon in 1956 to pick up a personal check of $16,843 and last year made Fort Knox look like a piggy bank once again by taking down $15,- TRULY AMERICAN WHISKEY finest talent that has come to gether on the shores of Lake Washington since 1953 when Bob "Hooks" Houbregs and company toiled on the court, Dye is feeling a premonition of possible disaster. A sports axiom warns a coach to be leery when his 743 for 'a one minute, 44 sec ond ride on Nadir. Hartack will not be eating hard tack for a while. ... . But it is unlikely that he will bet 10 per cent of the winner's $171,150 when an expected field of 12 goes to the post Saturday in the mile and a sixteenth gallop for two-year-olds. Willie wander ed all over the track in losing the Champagne Stakes with Tomy Lee, one of the favor- ities in this colossal canter, and trainer Frank Childs took a very dim view of the performance. , ' So Willie Shoemalcer will be back aboard the colt in this one and Hartack will be aboard Back Hills and a shot at the $17,115 which the win ning jock will drive home in an armored car. The favorite is First Landing, on which the richest of all the midget mil lionaires, a fellow named Ed die Arcaro, will be shooting for more pocket money. , The only thing certain- is that one of the 12 little men is in for a gold-lined gallop and in less than two minutes will earn "more than . some folks do in a whole year.

Boin and Smart ' Dye has plenty of reasons. eleven of them all letter men, to hope this is the year for a resurgence of Washing ton basketball. ' To begin with the Huskies have two sure-fire All-Ameri-' can candidates on hand. They are Bruno Boin, 6-9 pivot man who decided hot to play last year because of ' NCAA and Pacific Coast Conference pen alties inflicted on the team, and Doug Smart,' 6-8 bully boy on the backboards and top Washington scorer for two seasons running. Smart, good on the short hook and an artist at driving the lane from either side; is powerful off the backboards and will be that much tough er all around with Boin in the lineup to take the pressure off him. -More Stars Theses range scorers are joined by a trio of lettermen, all highly rated since their high school days.
