Oregon Rose Bowl Performance;
Drain's National Baseball Toga
Among 1958 Sports Highlights
Portland - OD - Oregon's
great performance in the Rose
Bowl, a national champion
ship for Drain and a record
high school mile were among
the top state sports stories of
1958.
Names like Jack Crabtree,
Ted Bates, Terry Baker, Dy
rol Burleson, Ray Stratton,
Dave Gambee and Bob Patter
son were prominent in the
headlines.
Coach Len Casanova's Ore
gon football team, a three
touchdown underdog, lost 10
7 to Ohio State in the Rose
Bowl, and won the admir
ation of the nation for its
great showing. Crabtree, who
completed 10 passes to end
Ron Stover, was picked as
the outstanding player of the
game.
The Drain Black Sox, man
aged by Stratton, went back
to Wichita and came home
with the national non-professional
baseball title.'
Mile Mark -Cracked
Burleson, of Cottage Grove,
broke the national high school
mile record with a time of
4:13.2 at Corvallis. Later he
entered the University of
Oregon, which won its fifth
straight Northern division
track title under Bill Bower
man. Bates, Oregon State's tackle,
was picked on the United
Press International Ail-American
football team. The death
from leukemia of Buzz Ran
dall, OSC's great center, was
a tragic blow to the Beavers'
football team.
LA Has Role
Of Capital
For Sports
By HAL WOOD
Los Angeles - (UPD - If this
isn't the sports capital of the
world, it will do until some
thing better comes along.
Today in the Los Angeles
area. 100,000 fans will see
the Rose Bowl game at Pasa
dena. Another 40,000 will
attend the horse races at
Santa Anita park.
Sunday the $40,000 Los An
geles Open Golf tournament
will get under way and in
four days upwards of 50,000
fans will see the competi
tion. And so It goes in smog
land the year around. Indi
cations are that within two
years, when pro basketball
and pro hockey hit the sports
mad area, the saturation point
will be reached.
Everybody Is a Fan
Last year an estimated 10,
000,000 persons attended
sports events in the area. Of
these, 1,845.000 attended the
Dodger baseball games; and
4,608,919 went to various
types of horse racing -thoroughbred,
pacers, trotters
and quarter-horses.
There were more champion
ship fights staged in Los An
geles last year than in any
city in the world. Attendance
for these passed the 237,000
mark.
"The fight business is so
good in Los Angeles," says
Truman Gibson, president of
the International Boxing club,
"we plan to take many more
championship shows there
again in 1959."
Right now there isn't a
major league spot in which to
play basketball and hockey.
However, this oversight will
be corrected when the coli
seum sports arena is complet
ed this year. It will have a
capacity of 22,000.
Two Major Stadia
Los Angeles probably is
the only region in the world
with two stadia that seat more
than 100.000 - the Coliseum
and the Rose Bowl. There are
a flock of "little" stadia
which seat 15,000 to 25,000,
such as Wrigley Field, home
of the old Los Angeles Angels.
The two race tracks, Santa
Anita and Hollywood Park,
have an average of 100 days
of major league thorough
bred racing every year be
tween them. They follow the
pacers and trotters at each
park.
Track and field usually
draws nothing except for the
Olympic Games at most cities
in U. S. But in Los Angeles,
the Coliseum relays annually
attract 35,000 to 40,000 fans.
It is probable that more
persons participate in sports
in the area than any city in
the world. With a fine year
'round climate, untold hun
dreds of thousands play golf,
swim, fish, hunt, etc., from
January through December.
It's a sports-happy town and
when such big days as the
Rose Bowl, Hollywood Gold
Cup, Santa Anita handicap or
the "big game" between USC
and UCLA roll around, the
-.hysteria, abounds .unchecked.
Gambee, Oregon State's
star now with the St. Louis
Hawks, led the Beavers to
a ti with California for the
PCC basketball crown.
Patterson, a Portland golf
er, reached the semi-finals of
the National Public Links
tourney before losing to Dan
Sikes Jr., the champion.
There were dozens of out
standing individual and team
performances. Summing up
by sports:
Baseball; The Portland Bea
vers, under Tommy Heath,
bounced back from the cel

PCL. Oregon State won the

ers in the no'y firmly en
trenched golf youth move
ment including Dow Finster
wald and Ken Venturi, tee
off Friday with a 100-plus
field in the opening round of
the $40,000 Los Angeles Open.
The tourney is one of the
richest of the year and the
first of the winter for the play-for-pay
men.
The 72-hole contest, to be
played on Rancho Municipal
Course, was won last year by
Frank Stranahan, the Toledo,
O., performer whose golf and
temper mellow with the years.
He played some of his finest
golf here last year.
Finsterwald, Tequesta, Fla.,
had the best round of all in
the pro-celebrity tournament
Tuesday a five-under par 66.
The "Golfer of the Year," an
other young player, who came
into his own in the mid 1950s,
usually ranks among the top
three money winners in any
tourney.
Venturi, San Francisco, shot
a 71 in a warmup round yes
terday, sinking a hole-in-one
on the 165-yard seventh hole.
John Doyle,
Ex-Giant
Pilot, Dies
Holyoke, Mass. -(LTD John
Doyle, a prominent figure in
baseball before the turn of
the century, died Wednesday
night at the age of 89 after
suffering a heart attack
earlier in the day.
Doyle, former manager of
the New York Giants and the
Washington Senators, is sur
vived by his sister, Miss Nora
Doyle.
He managed the Giants in
1895 and the Senators in 1898
after 17 years as a major
league baseball player. For
the past 28 years Doyle has
been a scout for the Chicago
Cubs.
"Sometimes," he once said,
"I think I get as much enjoy
ment out of scouting for new,
young players-watching them
perform-as I did in playing
back in the early 1900 s."
During his playing days,
Doyle was a catcher and first
baseman for Washington, Bal
timore, Brooklyn, the - Cubs
and the Giants.-

The Billikens' sky-scraping

Wyoming
Winner in
Sun Bow!
El Paso, Tex. - (UPD -Wyoming
Coach Bob Devaney
knew what he was talking
about when he said the Sun
Bowl football game "very
well" could be decided in the
line.
That's exactly what hap
pened Wednesday.
Wyoming beat Hardin-Simmons
14-6 on a pass inter
ception and a recovered fum
ble - both by linemen and
fought off threat after threat
by Hardin-Simmons.
Hardin-Simmons was famed
for its passing attack, but the
smaller but speedier Wyo
ming line repeatedly rushed
the passers, forcing the Tex
ans to complete only 11 of 23
passes for only 82 yards.
Plenty of Power
Hardin-Simmons sent plen
ty of power into its line
plays, featuring fullback Pete
Hart and halfbacks Joe Al
len and Dewey Bohling. But
none broke away with any
consistency and the team got
only 153 yards on the ground.
Wyoming was bottled up
by Hardin-Simmons' much
heavier line, too, but managed
to use the two breaks to move
quickly for second quarter
touchdowns. - . .
And it was only fitting that
a lineman, Wyoming guard,
Len Kuczew;ski, .was named
the game's most valuable
player. Kuczewski edged out
Hardin-Simmons tackle Ted
Edmondson. It was the first
time on the game's 24 year
history that a lineman was so
honored.'
