Dink Isn't Excited Several "West Coast ath letic figures refused' to get excited ovef Stanford's Dink - Templeton, the ence. , Link-Templeton, the dians' legendary track coach of other years who now is a radio commentator, wondered aloud if the "Big Four" had dropped a "veto power" when Stanford joined up which gave the loop a working ma jority. - Al Masters, semi-retired athletic director at Stanford, said he was glad the move was made because the Indians "had to join a conference." But he also asked whether a five team loop would be rec ognized by the NCAA. One Thing for Sure One thing remained cer tain. Next January's repre sentative in the Rose Bowl would 'be based on the team which comes out on. top in the ghostly Pacific Coast Con ference race. , The Big Five, as it now stands, would not draw from its own group un til after the football season of 1960. Harris, of Oregon, refused to comment on Thursday night's developments. Dr. A. L. Strand, president of Ore gon State, said "It was the natural thing for Stanford to do," but would not comment further. Coach and athletic director Jack Moose Myers of College of Pacific, admittedly on the prowl to enter his school into a conference, grimly said, "I wish we could get into it."

Balboa investment broker Peter Grant used every bit of canvas possible to bring the 46-foot sloop across the dia mond head finish line at 4:09. 39 a.m. (p.d.t.).
