10 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford',
Cardinals
Swap Back
For Eight
Chicago-OT-The Chlcagi
v.arainais Saturday traded
Halfback Ollie Matson to the
Los Anageles Rams for eight
players to be delivered this
year and a high draft choice
in 1950. It was one of th
biggest single deals in Na
tional Football league history,
Going to the Cards, their of-
iice announced here, are four
veteran first string linemen:
tackles Frank Fuller and Art
Hawuser, defense, and Ken
Panfil, offensive Glenn Holtz-
man, defensive end and of-
lensive tackle.
Others going from the Rams
re their second, third and
fouth draft choices: Halfback
Don Brown, Houston; Full
back Larry Hickman, Baylor;
John Tracey, Texas A&M; and
another player to be selected
before the start' of the 1959
eason.
xn aaaiton to the seven
named and one unnamed play
er, is the previously mention
ed high draft choice for 1960
"The last thing we wanted
to do was trade Ollie Matson,"
said Cards' Coach Frank Ivy,
"but we feel that in order to
get worthwhile players, you
have to give up something
equally good. We feel that the
best way to strengthen Card
Inals is by obtaining proven
players and rookies who were
top draftees."
Ends Three Day's Trading
The Cards said the deal
climaxed three days of "horse
trading" by Ivy and Managing
Director Walter Wolfner of
the Cards, and by Coach Sid
Gillman and General Manager
Pete Rozelle of the Rams.
"Our entire coaching staff
feels that these additional top-
Ilight players will, without a
doubt, make 'the Cardinals a
strong contender this year, al
though we know we gave up,
In my book, the greatest back
that ever played in the Na
tional Football league."
He referred to Matson, the
former University of San
Francisco back who has been
the sparkplug of the Cards
offense in six years with the
Chicago team.
In that time, the Texas
born Matson, 28, carried the
ball 761 times for 3,331 yards;
caubht 130 passes for 2,150
yards; returned 48 punts 524
yards and 86 kickoffs for 2,
453 yards; and scored 300
points.
His averages were 4.38 for
rushing; 16.5 for passes
caught; 10.9 on punt returns
and 28.5 for kickoff returns.
His best season with the Cards
was 1956, when he carried the
ball 192 times for 924 yards,
caught 15 passes for 199 yards,
returned 5 punts 39 yards and
13 kickoffs for 352 yards, a
total of 1,524 yards.

minutes of play.
From that time Bob Evans
was assigned the tough job
of covering Welburn closely.
He didn't stop him entirely
but the Bulldog marksman
put in only three field buck

Terrang
Captures
Santa Anita
Arcadia, Calif. Feb. 28-OJPD-Terrang,
who pushed Round
Table to a record race last
year, came back Saturday to
capture the 22nd running of
the $145,000 Santa Anita
Handicap from favored Hills
dale by a long neck.
Running the greatest race
of his career, Terrang captur
ed his ninth stakes at Santa
Anita to prove again this was
his favorite track and that he
needed only to run back to
last year's Santa Anita Handi
cap for victory. Royal Living
was third in the field by 13
starters.
Terrang raced the mile and
a quarter in 2:00 flat but the
time was no indication of the
closeness of the race. The win
ner ran down Hillsdale in the
final sixteenth and then out
gamed him to the wire.
The victory was made more
impressive by the fact that
Terrang carried top weight of
116 pounds to Hillsdale's 113
as weights were assigned off
Round Table with 132 pounds.
But the champion failed to get
up to the race because of a leg
injury.
Terrang was sent off at
odds of 9-1 by the big crowd of
57,000 racing fans and he re
turned $20.70, $5.60 and $3.80
across the board. Hillsdale, the
4-5 favorite, paid $2.90 and
$2.50 and Royal Living as an
entry with Social Climber
paid $4.20 for show.

Moore Sure
Of Fighting
Sugar Ray
San Diego, Calif.-ttJPD-The
much - discussed proposed
light-heavyweight title bout
between Archie Moore and
Sugar Ray Robinson appeared
a certainty if ageless Archie
has anything to say about it.
"It looks like I'll sign,"
Moore said Saturday after a j
conference with his Manager, !
Jack Doc Kearns, and his
business associate, Nate Ros
enberg. Moore conferred Friday
with Truman Gibson, of the
newly-formed National Box
ing Enterprises, Inc. about the
bout proposed by New York
promoter Bill Rosensohn.
Moore said the deal sounded
"tempting."
The fight between Moore
and the middleweight titlist
for Moore's crown would be
held sometime in June, either
in New York's Yankee Sta

sports arena.
