t. UPI Honors Wildcats' Parseghian Evanston, 111. -tPD- They sang a 'blue song called "Lose 'm All" at Northwestern last year, so coach Ara Parsegh ian came up with a brand new .team this year and has every one in the Midwest singing his praises after five victor ies in six starts. On the heels of his most impressive triumph, a 21-0 rout of Ohio State, United Press International joins the chorus today by naming the handsome dark-haired Ohioan college football's "Coach of the Week." Woody Hayes, the disap- pointed Ohio State tutor, goes a. step further with the an- ; nouncement that Parseghian "gets my vote as coach of the "year," a sentiment quickly endorsed by Phil Dickens of Indiana and certain to pick up added support. ' One Senior Six weeks ago such a devel- 1 opment could hardly have been foreseen. Here was a Wildcat squad trying to come back from a 1957 campaign in which it lost all nine starts including three shutouts. On hand was one senior, tackle Andy Cverko, plus a handful of juniors. The rest were , sophomores. j Parseghian, pointing out rthat he had "only two classes to work with," predicted that ' Northwestern wouldn't be "on ; an equal basis with other i squads until a year from now ; when we'll have three class es." Then he set to work buil ding a psychological fire un ' der those sophomores. Result Nothwestern's only loss in six games was a close one to Iowa, which could be headed for the Big Ten championship. The small chalet formerly . occupied by former King Fa rouk near the Pyramids in Egypt has now been remodel- ed into a restaurant and night " club. MEDFORD ELKS!

Tornado To Tussle Best Grants Pass Team in 11 Seasons Grants Pass High School's best football agregation in 11 seasons, a Caveman crew at its physical best of the year and a squad fired up by tre mendous community spirit. That's what the Medford High school Black Tornado will be up against when it goes to Grants Pass on Friday night for the Southern Oregon con i e r e n c e championship en counter. The best in 11 years rating is Caveman Coach. Mel In gram's admission. And, it's saying a lot. For during the period Grants Pass has field ed two state championship clubs, in 1948 and in 1951 and, has fielded other strong con tenders. Grants Pass has a tough mo bile line and an offense fea tured this fall by the running of Jack Dean, Marvin Terry, Oscar Nceley and Hugh Brown and the passing of Dick Hayes in compiling a rec ord of four victories, two ties and only one loss. The line in cludes such veterans as Jerry Putnam, Wendell Winterbot tom. Reed Daugherity, Ollie Woolsey and Ron Hoatson. Beset by injuries to some top players along through the campaign, the Grants Pass squad will be virtually intact for the District 6 A-l title scramble. Only Marv Terry, a first line halfback, is a ques tion because of a knee muscle ailment. G P Doing Most ' In the department of gen erating community spirit and show of support to bolster team morale, Grants Pass peo ple are far outdoing the resi dents of Medford. The Cli mate city is plastered with signs such as "Beat Mudford" aiming to stir up community enthusiasm and the playing ef forts, of it3 team. . This spirit was evident at an open house in the schools on Monday night and will be You're Invited REFRESHMENTS furthered by the annual Moth er and Son football banquet this evening. Grants Pass Kridders are dedicating the Medford game to their moth ers. It is being stressed that the conflict wall represent Ingram's quest for his 80th victory as Grants Pass men tor. Grants Pass merchants are furniybing food and other essentials and trimmings for the dinner. No such blazing display of enthusiasm in the game is evident in Medford. Grants Pass apparently has replaced the Pear capital as southern Oregon city where residents go all out to support their teams. But, there is that pos sibility that Black Tornado fan and player alike, now view the titular tiff with so ber seriousness with he fer vor for the battle, the vitality and high spirit keyed to spring lose when it counts the most on Friday night.. Right now, however, GP seems to be outdoing Medford in its anticipation of the game. Depth To Help While the Cavemen loom at their best of the fall physical ly, the Tornado appears its hardest hit of the season Medford, nevertheless, can be thankful for its depth in tal ent to help fill the gap for in jury and sickness woes. The Black Tornado, ac cording to Coach Fred Spie gelberg, is not counting on halfback Dick Ragsdale be cause of the knee injury he suffered in the Ashland game, Halfback Gerry Lyons, victim of a calf injury at Ashland and then of flu, was hobbling at drill last night and was sent in early. Quarterback and Linebacker Jim Clark home in bed sick yesterday, Tackle Gordon Pathman is nursing a bruised knee. Tackle Lynn Knight has his finger still in a splint because of a discolation but is able to perform his punting chores. Spiegelberg this week has Ken Durkee, Cal Dean and Don Peek working to bolster the left half offensive posi tion. Durkee, who did well in replacing Lyons and Ragsdale at Ashland, Dean and Peek have been defensive regulars this fall . John Harvey has been drilling at a defensive halfback. Basically To Platoon At'quafterback the Tornado ! still has Bob Pond and Ray Konopasek, who have seen most of the duty in recent contests. Fred Funston, regu lar linebacker has been work ing at the post and Bill Char ley and Skip Bennet have drilling at linebacker duties. Spiegelberg has indicated -.that the Tornado plans to pla toon basically but that there may be a number of perform ers seeing duty both ways. Reserved seats up for sale for the titanic brush were gone in a hurry on Monday morning. Grants Pass school officials are rounding up all available bleachers to provide a maximum of seats for the huge crowd expected. 1 Deschutes Elects GOP Representative , Bend-flJPB-A Republican un seated a Democratic state representative here Tuesday.

Geneva Nuclear Talks Appear To Be Deadlocked Geneva (UPD The Soviet Union appeared hopelessly deadlocked today with the United States and Britain on a nuclear test ban. Diplo matic sources here saw no sign of a backdown on either side. But because the- United Na tions shifted responsibility for some sort of agreement to the Eas,t-West conference here, Western officials expressed optimism that both sides would give way sufficiently to prevent a permanent rupture. In New York the United Nations Political Committee ended its discussion on nu clear test bans and disarma ment and left it up to the Ge neva conference to work out some agreement. Standing Pat Both sides were standing pat on their positions when the conference went into its fourth session today. These were: -The Russians want an im mediate unconditional and permanent ban on nuclear testing and have handed the West a draft treaty to sign on the dotted line. They also in sist on discussing this before talking about a control sys tem to police it. -The West refuses to tie it self down with an uncondi tional ban until a control sys tem has been set up and is working and until there is progress toward a general nu clear disarmament plan. For this reason the West insists on discussing a control system first. Springfield Rejects Electric System Issue Springfield (UPD Spring field voters Tuesday rejected a ballot proposal that the city's municipal electric sys tem issue $3,500,000 worth of revenue bonds for the pur chase of competing facilities of the Pacific Power and Light -company.

An- Alignment Discussed By Minors Memphis, Tenn. (UPD The minor leagues realignment conference opened today as baseball's top executives grap pled with the problem of fi nancially distressed ball clubs. The conference was called at the request of William De witt, chairman of the major league fund committee, to ex plore various realignment pro posals before , : the annual major-minor league meetings at Washington next month. Here is . some of the 'early realignment talk: Houston may pull out of the Texas league, and go into AAA ball. If Houston gets Triple A, Dallas - and Fort Worth want Triple A, too. -Atlanta of the Southern Association wants Triple A, possibly to replace tottering Louisville in the American Association. -Create an entire new Triple A loop, with "the cream of the crop" of the Pouble A Southern and Texas leagues. -Denver of the American Association to the Pacific Cpast league, and Houston and Dallas to the American association, in place of Louis ville and Denver. "I don't have to have any realignment of my league," said International President Frank Shaughnessey. "We haven't any trouble at all."

Moffett downed SOC 40 to 25 in the collegian's season opener at Ashland. The Raiders then travel for a iaturday, jvov. 15 ruckus with Eastern Washington at Cheney. Although the Mounties of Eastern Oregon are winless in grid play this year, the Raid ers will enter the contest with much apprehension, since last year the Mounties held the powerhouse SOC to a score less tie. SOC Favorites With their new winged-T offense working with such good results last week and a number of wins behind them the Raiders will be slight fa vorites to whip the visitors. EOC in conference play- has yet to win a' game in two years. So far tuis year the Raid ers of SOC hold a two-won and five-lost record with wins over British Columbia and Portland State. Injuries are at a minimum so far this week. Herb Chap man is sidelined and Punk Biddington is a big question mark with his broken finger still in the healing situation. Al South is also out with leg trouble. Practice was called off Mon day in an effort to give the Raiders a rest after their long trip to Coos Bay and with the thought of three ball : games coming up in close order next week.
