Of., Wednesday, November 12, 1958 Southern Oregon Raiders Nick Moffett; Coaches Take Walk Southern Oregon college head football coach Al Akins, athletic director, Ted Schopf, assistant Coach Chuck Cran dall and equipment custodian Dick Brown traveled by shanks mares from Medford 12 miles to Ashland yester day. The reason: Southern Oregon's Red Raiders of the Rogue valley nipped Moffett Naval Air Base 25 to 24 in a Veterans holiday thriller at the Med ford High school stadium. Akins, Schopf and Brown had agreed to make the - home ward trek to Ashland on foot if the SOC contingent won the game. And the victorious Raider players wouldn't let Crandall get on the bus. He could walk, too, they decided. Three touchdowns in the fi nal quarter in a conflict played before a small holiday crowd turned the trick. South ern Oregon forged in front, yielded another touchdown to the Fliers and came from be hind once more to force the four men to hoof it. Francis Scores Eldon Francis swung arouni right end for nine yards for SOC's winning touchdown with 2 minutes 15 seconds left to play in the Raiders' finest effort of the fall. Margin of victory proved to be a Lance Locke to Laval Meunier pass for bonus point. The game's lone conversion, it came on the Raiders' rally starting touchdown in the closing canto. Francis and Larry Maurer with their running, Locke and Jack Brown with their aerial chucking, Gordon Car rigan and Meunier with their pass receptions and Rick Her man with his interceptions and yeoman tackling led the Raiders to their triumph.

But r rancis start ed SOC's final stanza fire works with a 42-yard touch down run. With Meunier's trif snore was 1 to 13. Then Herman robbed an Olivas pass and ran 31 vards to the pay line. That made it Raiders 19. Fliers 18 Three plays after the next kickoff Olivas pitched to ramnhell for 34 vards and a goal. Moffett headed again 24 to 19. Southern Oregon drove af ter the kickoff from its. own 47 yard line to the Moffett 15 where Maurer's fumble lost the ball. Then the Raiders be gan again from their own 39 after a punt.

He ran 13 yards to the Moffett 41. Francis toted seven and four yards, and Meunier went 11 to the 11. In Fine Whiskey... FLEISCHMANN'S is the BIG buy! 90 PROOF is why! A W QT. to Francis gained to the seven and Maurer scooted the rest of the way, on a pitchout, around right end. Locke's con version kick failed. Long Pass Scores The Fliers fought back by striking to the Raider 17 but Andy Travis dumped Camp bell on the 24 where SOC took the ball on downs. Set back to the 19 for delay of game, the Raiders nevertheless ground their way to the Mof fett seven. Two plays lost to the 23 and Moffett finally got the gall on its 19. Campbell gained seven to the 26 and White took a pass for eight to the Flier 34. Tay lor grabbed an Olivas aerial and romped to the goal, shak ing free of SOC's Owsley on the Raider 20. J.. P. Dorsey's interception set up the second Flier touchdown strike, put ting the pighide oh the Raider 39. Olivas tossed to Dorsey for 15 and to John Mullen for 22 yards to the two. The Mof fett QB slipped across from that spot. Moffett promenaded from its own 39 in 10 plays for the third quarter marker. Long est gain on the march was a pass for 16 yards and White's 13 yard TD sally was the only other punch more than nine. Francis Runs 42 Southern Oregon started the final canto with the ball on its own 44. One try lost to the 42. But Maurer made it back to the 47 and a Brown throw to Carrigan gave first down on the Flier 42. That's where Francis broke over the line, shook away from several tacklers and headed for the Moffett end zone. A bruising block by Phil Sword got rid of the last threatening de fender. Locke chucked to Meunier for the all-important bonus. Herman followed shortly with his interception TD and three scrimmage plays later the Fliers had their final score. Campbell returned George Koch's kickoff from the 11 to the Moffett 30. White made 21 yards through the middle and took a pass to put the ball on the SOC 34.

Moffett Air Force Base on Medford high v Guide Gets Victory on Foul Claim By RAY AYRES Laurel, Md. -(UPD- A. G. (Bert) Dibb, who sold Sailor's Guide to Dr. Leon Levy of Philadelphia following the Australian horse's victory in the Washington, D.C. Interna tional, today declared he would not have entered a foul claim against Tudor Era's jockey. Tudor Era, one of the two American entries in Tuesday's classic at Laurel, finished 3 V. lengths ahead of Sailor's Guide but was disqualified for bumping the Australian horse on the stretch turn and placed second The foul claim, upheld by the stewards, was made by Howard Grant, the American rider of Sailor's Guide, against jockye Willie Harmatz on Tu dor Era. However, Dibb later ap peared . quite surprised at Grant's action. "In our country", the Aus tralian horseman said, "the jockey is not permitted to claim foul without permission from the owner or trainer of the horse." Official Result Delayed - "I would not have ' given that permission," Dibb added. Because of Grant's foul claim, the official result - of the race was held up almost a half hour while the stewards studied movies of the race and also' conferred with both rid ers. Satisfied that Grant's objec tion was justified the stewards ordered the disqualification of Tudor Era and awarded the winner's purse of $70,000 to Dibb. Players Return To OSC Squad Corvallis, Ore.-(UPD -Blocking back Gary Lukehart and tackle Ed Rogers returned to the Oregon State lineup Tues day as the Beavers prepared for Saturday's game against Stanford at Palo Alto. The two players, who had been on the injury list,- re turned to a practice session which coach Tommy Prothro devoted to "speed, skill, spirit and intensity." MAINTAIN SHIP SEARCH Singapore-(UPD-The U.S. and Singapore officials failed to day to contact the American schooner Utopia, which last Friday radioed for emergen cy fuel. MedfcrivTribuni siPdDmnrs OSC's Bates Rated West's Best Tackle Br HAL WOOD San Francisco-IUPD-The best college tackle in the West if not in the country-this year is Ted Bates, a powerful line man for Oregon State. Because the Beavers have been whipped three times al ready, it is possible that Bates may be overlooked in the balloting for All - American status. Bates is so good, that oppos ing teams have taken to build ing their offenses in spots where towering Ted won't be in the way. "He's one of the finest col lege tackles I ever saw," says his coach, Tommy Prothro. "He never has a bad day." Bates was the guy who handed California its only Pa cific Coast conference loss to date. He spent most of the aft ernoon in the Golden Bear backfield and was the man jinainly responsible for. hold ing the great Joe Kapp to a minimum of 20 yards gained on the ground and not much more in the air. Stopped Kapp ' Three times during the game Bates broke through the Cal defenses to toss Kapp for important losses when Cali fornia was on the march. There wasn't an inch of ground gained over his posi tion during the game. And the Oregon State coaches consid er California the best team they have met this year. Standing 6-3 and weighing 215 pounds, Bates is a senior who has been a standout all through his college career. Scouts are just as enthusias- Cousy Provides Celtic Spark United Press International When the chips are down, Bob Cousy's around. " Cousy, hobbled by injuries, scored seven points in over time to lead the Boston Cel tics to a 116-113 triumph over Minneapolis in the only Na tional Basketball Association action Tuesday night. The Lakers were ahead in every- period but the last. After trailing .57-43 at half time, Boston crept to within one point, 78-77, at the end of three periods as Cousy fed scoring passes to Bill Shar man and Jim Loscutbff . Tommy Heinsohn deadlock ed the game at 99 - all with a free throw at the end of regulation time. This set the stage for Cousy's scoring spree.

The Salem, Ore., club trav els to Yuma, Ariz., for a show down game with Arizona State this weekend. Northeast Oklahoma leads the ratings. tic over this boy as are the Beaver coaches. "Bates is the most outstand ing college tackle in the West," says assistant coach Dutch Fehring of Stanford. "I would say he is one of the better professional prospects in the country. Rough and Tough "He is a real tough football player. Not dirty. Just rough and tough. And he has tre mendous reaction and a lot of speed." For a big man, Bates has tremendous speed. He is the fastest man in the Beaver for ward wall -and can outrun most of their backs. Bates and his mates tangle this week with the oft-beaten Stanford team and the star lineman again will get a chance to show his stuff. But the Stanford coaches, well aware of his abilities, prob ably will have an offense plotted that will send the ball packer anywhere that will not be in the vicinity of Mr. Bates.
