Versatility
In Raider
Grid Attack
Ashland Though lacking
individual stars, Al Akins'
Southern Oregon college foot
ball Red Raiders, operating
from a split wing formation,
could be one of the toughest
hurdles to top in the Oregon
Collegiate Conference this
fall.
Adkins, whose team will
meet the University of Ha
waii Sept. 17 in Medford for
its first game, explained, "The
split wing is a combination
of the split T and the single
wing which makes for plenty
of versatility in attack with
resultant thrills for the spec
tators."
Coach Adkins continued
with a chuckle, "I've done a
lot of work during the past
year on redesigning our fam
ous Southern Oregon college
spread, and I've talked to a
lot of folks who've traveled
for a long way to see it and
it's well-worthing using two
or three times a season even
if we never make a yard on
it!"
When questioned about the
team's chances for the coming
season, Adkins pointed out
that he had a "half and half
club, meaning that he could
field an entire team of vet
erans or an entire team of
newcomers. The mentor was
onick to mention that his vet
erans,, though well-seasoned in
a number of respects, were
not holdovers from any cham
pionship aggregation, and his
new men, though showing
promise, were largely an un
known quantity.
Expected to spearbead the
offense this season arm backs
Eldon Francis, Medford; Gor
don Carrigan, Central Point;
Laval Meunier, Medford; Del
Brood, Phoenix; and quarter
back veterans. Lance Locke,
Ashland; and Jack Brown,
Medford.
Among experienced offen
sive lineman are Phil Sword,
Ashland; Troy Bellah, North
Bend; Jim Tachinni, Henley;
Bud Brittson, Medford; and
two fast-developing ends, Jim
McAbee, Talent; and Punk
Biddington, Roseburg.
Red Raiders defenses will
depend largely upon veterans
Rick Smith, Reedsport; Pedro
Colley, Klamath Falls; Neil
Green, Crater; Norm Hedge
peth. Grants Pass; Jim Mc
Abee, and linebackers, Willie
Garner, Phoenix, and Phil
Sword, Ashland.
Displaying much potential
are such players as Bud Mau
pin, Merrill; Mike Sparlin,
Grants Pass; Jim Clark, Med
ford; Wayne Allen, Central
Point; Clark Peterson, Cot
tage Grove; Kerman Bennett,
Central Point; Damion Ros
setto, Weed; Jim Perkins, Cot
tage Grove and Al Barnes,
Central Point and a host of
others. Adkins said that he is
expecting nearly 60 men to
show for the first practice ses
sion of the season.
The SOC contingent has a
rough schedule. It will square
off against the University of
Hawaii, Sept. 17; Chico State,
Sept. 26; Linfield, Oct. 3; Port
land State, Oct. 10; Oregon
Technical Institute, Oct. 17;
Oregon College of Education,
Oct. 24; Eastern Oregon, Oct.
31; Eastern Oregon, Nov.
7 in the Myrtle Bowl, and
against Humboldt, Nov. 14.

They tried to decide that

This is only one of the side
shows as the pros get set for
Thursday's opening of the
PGA golf championship, one
of the gems in golf's triple
crown. It's a four-day event,
with only 18 holes each day.
But the hackers of the

DAILY'S U-DRIVE
Medford Airport
nounced Monday in New York
by William Shea on the eve
of the Senate anti-trust and
monopoly subcommittee's first
hearing on bills to give major
professional team sports at
least partial exemption from
the anti-trust laws.
Frick was called to give
baseball's official views on
two differing legislative pro
posals, one by Sen. Kenneth
B. Keating (R-N.Y.) and the
other by subcommittee Chair
man Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.).
Organized sports leaders
last year backed a similar bill
by Keating which passed the
House but died in the Senate.
Would Exempt Sports
The New York Republican's
measure would exempt pro
fessional baseball, basketball,
hockey and football from the
anti-trust laws except in their
business aspects.
Kefauver's bill would place
baseball under the anti-trust
laws on the same basis with
the other three sports. But it
would exempt the strictly
non-business aspects of the
sports, including their rights
of contract with players.
However, Kefauver propos
es a limit of 80 on the number
of players any team could
keep under its control and
would make any agreements
to limit radio-television broad
casts subject to approval by
the Federal Communications
Commission.
Pro football Commissioner
Bert Bell Tuesday endorsed
the Keating bill and the main
provisions of Kefauver's pro
posal. But he objected to a
Kefauver proposal to require
written consent of athletes be
fore they could be drafted and
also the broadcasting section.

Boy saw Might
Prove Spoiler
Cleveland, Ohio - (UPD - Un
heralded young Solomon Boy-
saw could prove a real "spoil
er" tonight when he meets
third-ranked flyweight Flash
Elorde in a nationally tele
vised 10-round bout at the
Cleveland arena.
Elorde, who is fn line for
a flyweight championship
fight, will be going out of his
weight class to meet the un
defeated Cleveland light
weight. Boysaw, 26, son of a Cleve
land preacher, has never been
on the canvas in his budding
ring career. He has a record
of 20 victories and one draw
since turning pro in 1956.

until they have reached at
least their fifth year.
IN SOFTBALL FEATURE -
Joan Joyce, above, is one of
the top pitchers for the Ray
bestos Brackettes, Stratford,
Conn., who meet the Rogue
Valley Dairy Maids in softball
competition on Thurs day
night, July 30, at Memorial
stadium, Camp White. The de
fending world champs face
the Maids at 7:30 p.m., then
take on the Erv Lind Florists

debut in the world tourney at
the age of 18. She tossed one
no-hit no-run game and hurled
no-hit relief in the world
meet. Her 1958 season record
was 17-3. She likely will
pitch tomorrow night, possib
ly against the Maids.

Pat Pepper threw a no-hitter

Eight other runs crossed the
