California Bears Seek 'Must'
Victory Over Stanford Eleven
By SCOTT BRAILLIE
United Press International
"Beat Stanford!"
And California must do
exactly that Saturday or turn
the Rose Bowl picture into a
methematical jumble which
might result in a hurry call
for Dr. Glenn Seaborg, the
Bears' Nobel Prize-winning
physicist.
Cal was favored by 12
points to hand the sluggish In
dians their eighth defeat of
the year. But if Coach Jack
Curtice managed to pull off
his third upset of the season,
then either Washington State,
Oregon State or even South
ern California which was
further down in the standings
conceivably would take the
field against Iowa on New
Years Day.
These three coast teams also
were favored to beat back
time-honored opposition.
Cougars-Bearers
Washington State, tied with
Oregon State in second spot
and both a half-game behind
California, was an eight point
choice over the disappointing
Huskies at Seattle. The odds

A jam-packed Parker sta

Cage Loop
Session
On Sunday
What is hoped to be the fi
nal meeting in plans to organ
ize a Southern Oregon inde
pendent basketball league will
be held at the Holland hotel
dining room in Medford on
Sunday, Nov. 23, at 2 p.m.
Teams already committed
to the league are Hawkinson's
Tire of Medford, Southern
Oregon College JV's of Ash
land, Butte Falls, Grants Pass
and Riddle. It is hoped at
least one more team can be
found to round out the league.
Invited to attend the meeting
are representatives from the
Oregon National Guard in
Medford, Glendale, Eagle
Point and any other team
which desires to seek a fran
chise in the new circuit.
The schedule will be drawn
following the Sunday meeting
and play is expected to start
early in December.
Trapshoot
Set Sunday
Central Point Junior Cham
ber of Commerce will serve
the lunch Sunday at the pre-
Thanksgiving turkey shoot of
Medford Gun club
The shoot is to open at 10
a.m. and last through the day.
It is open to the public with
class events in 16-yard and
handicap firing and partici
pation available also to non-

Hams and turkeys will be
prizes.
The shoot Is slated rain or
shine and is the first major
affair of the new shooting
season.
Syria Communist
Purge Ordered
Berut -(UPD- President Ga
mal Abdel Nasser has ordered
a purge of Communists and
fellow travelers in Syria, and
it is expected to take place
shortly, usually reliable Syr
ian sources said today.
The sources said the purge
would concentrate on Com
munists and their outspoken
sympathizers in the civil ser
vice and government.
They indicated that the
reason behind Nasser's order
was a combination of concern
over Communist activity in
neighboring Iraq and dissatis
faction with the Reds' refus
al to heed his injunction
against taking part in poli
tics.
Another Portland
Youth Sentenced
Portland (UPBl The crack
down against youthful law
breakers continued here
Thursday when a 19-year-old
youth was sentenced to eight
years in prison for a holdup.
Melvin Clarence Peterson
was sentenced by Circuit
Judge James R. Bain for a
$75 holdup Aug. 14 of bus
driver David L. Patterson on
a Rose City Transit bus. Two
others. Bruce Victor Jones,
and Paul Russell Kraemer,
both 16, were sentenced to
five year prison terms last
week for their part in "the
robbery.
test, upon which hinges the
title hopes of Oregon State.
The weather man said the
temperature should be around
60 degrees at the 1:30 p.m.
game time.
The bright word from the
weather man after nearly a
week of rain undoubtedly was
welcome news to both coaches
Len Casanova of Oregon and
Tommy Prothro of Oregon
State as well as to fans. Casa
nova's Oregon team has had
trouble enough with its of
fense even on dry fields. Ore
gon State hoped for good
playing conditions so it would
be able to mix passes with its
powerful running game.
Four Have Bowl Chance
Prothro has won an out
right title and co-title in his
last two seasons. If the Bea
vers win and Stanford upsets
Califo-nia, Oregon State
would get at least a share of
this year's PCC crown. The
Rose Bowl nod then would be
up to officials of the nine PCC
schools.
Going into Saturday's ac
tion, California, Oregon State,
Washington State and South
ern California all hold a
chance for a trip to Pasadena,
Cal., of course, can settle
things by winning from Stan
ford. . -.
Out of the veil of secrecy
which has hung over both
practice fields this week came
two items of news.
Mason a Starter
Prothro said Grimm Mason
probably would start at tail
back for Oregon State. Mason
reinsured a knee Oct. 25
against Washington and has
been out since.
End Ron Stover, the pass
catching hero of Oregon's
Rose Bowl team, will be able
to play. He has been sidelined
recently with a bruised shin.
All the Ducks were said to be
ready to play except halfback
Charlie Tourville, who rein
jured his leg against UCLA.
The game will be the final
one for a number of seniors,
including OSC's two great
stars, tackle Ted Bates and
fullback Nub Beamer. Bates
is rated as one of the best
tackles in the country and it
may be because of him that
the - odds-makers have in
stalled the Beavers as slight
choices to take their 25th win
over Oregon. The Ducks hold
29 victories and there have
been eight ties.
On the season so far Ore
gon State is 6-3, Oregon is
3-5.
The game will be broadcast
but not televised.
Beavers six points better
than Oregon while Southern
California was a seven-point
choice to defeat UCLA.
Other West Coast football
will see Iowa State at San
Jose State Friday night while
College of the Pacific is at
San Diego State and San
Francisco State invades Fres
no State in Saturday games.
Coach Jim Sutherland of
Washington State, battling to
get his Cougars their first
Rose Bowl date since 1931,
proclaimed during the week,
"We're still in the fight." And
he was set to go with . the
same powerful crew which
tore down College of the Pa
cific, 34-0, last Saturday.
Jim Owens of Washington,
satisfied by the way his line
performed last weekend in
holding Cal to a 12-7 win,
planned to counter with the
same bastion against the Cou
gars.
California's Pete Elliott, re
fusing to be intoxicated by the
sweet smell of success,
worked on secret plays to
overcome the Indians and
sideline observers noted the
Bears line would be outweigh
ed about 23 pounds to the
man. But California still had
quarterback Joe Kapp, master
of the option play, while Cur
tice learned that halfback Jim
Byrer was through for the
season. This somewhat damp
ened enthusiasm which had
arisen with news that Rick
McMillen, the Indians' best
halfback, was off the sick list
after a month.
Tommy Prothro, out to keep
his perfect home game record
intact at Corvallis, hustled
Oregon State's Beavers be
hind closed gates for secret
workouts. ' Len Casanova of
Oregon groaned, that end Ron
Stover and halfback Charlie
Tourville probably would be
lost for the game.
Wood Lost Again
Southern California's bulge
over UCLA among the price
makers seemed to drop a lit
tle with news that quarter
back Willie Wood was out for
the year along with Al Pro
kop. But the Trojans still had
a good signal man in Tom
Maudlin.
UCLA also has worked out
with the. shades drawn. Bill
Kilmer, hailed as a great so
phomore, was expected to
start at tailback in place of
the injured Chuck Kendall.
San Jose State, a solid team
after its uncertain start, hosts
an Iowa State delegation that
has lost six of is last seven
games.
Dick Bass, College of the
Pacific's speedback, was ex
pected to roll further ahead
as the nation's top ground
gainer against San Diego
State, ife went into the game
with 1,037 gained so far this
season.
Pope Praises U. S.
Church Vitality'
Washington-flJPD-Pope John
XXHI has praised the "vital
ity" of the Catholic church in
America in his first message
to the bishops of the United
States.
The papal message was ad
dressed to the annual meet
ing of the U.S. Catholic hier
archy which was held here
last week. It was made public
Thursday night by the Na
tional Catholic .Welfare con
ference NCWC.
Pope John expressed his
"paternal affection" for the
American bishops and his
"sincere gratitude" for the
"many tokens of prayerful fe
licitations, loyalty and good
wishes" he has received from
this country since his election.
"The vitality of the Catho
lic church in America is a
precious source of spiritual
richness for the church uni
versal," he said.

No Grace Period
For Gl Payments
Despite what some veter
ans may believe, there is no
grace period for the late pay
ment of installments on GI
loans, S. T. Brannock, officer
in charge of the Medford, Vet
erans administration office,
announced today.
Thus, Brannock added, vet
erans should make their GI
loan payments on or before
the date they are due.
Failure to do so may prove
costly, Brannock pointed out,
since GI lenders may make
an extra service charge when
payments are received late.
Brannock warned that vet
erans who gain the reputation
of being "chronic delinquents"
will find their lenders taking
that fact into account if the
veterans should ever need an
extension of repayment time
on their GI loans.
In addition to their loss of
credit standing, veterans who
become delinquent in their
payments may ultimately be
faced with the loss of the
property acquired with their
GI loans, Brannock said.
TWA Machinists
Strike on Schedule
Kansas City, Mo. -(UPD- A
strike by machinists that
would ground all Trans World
Airlines flights occurred on
schedule at 10 a.m. c.s.t. to
day, but there was hope of
a quick settlement.
Two minutes before the
strike deadline, union negoti
ator Cliff Miller called his in
ternational headquarters in
Washington to report a last
minute company offer. He
then left without further com
ment. Two officials would not di
vulge their latest offer, but
said they expected to have an
answer within 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, the union threw
up pickets at Kansas City's
Municipal Airport on sched
ule. , "We don't know for sure,"
a TWA spokesman said, "but
it looks as if the strike is on."

ONE OP A
SCRIES
ANSWER: THE DAILY NEWSPAPER. Nearly everyone
reads a newspaper every day so it follows that prac
tically any product sold will be sold to a newspaper
reader. Hence the newspaper is basic and the effective
use of its advertising columns constitutes the most pow
erful and profitable advertising force in existence. And
that's why so many advertisers use it day after day.
Newspapers are the answer to your advertising needs.
