Houston, Tex. -JUPD- "These

Red Raiders Take
On Westmont Club
On SO Maplecoiirt f
Ashland - With the idea
that "it's a lot better playing
the tough teams early in the
season," the Southern Oregon
college Red Raiders oppose
Westmont college's strong
basketball contingent here
this evening and . again on
Wednesday night.
Game times at the SOC
gym will be 8 p.m. The Raid
er iayvees meet Hawkinson
Tire Tread in the 6:30 o'clock
preliminary this evening and
will tussle the Andy's Jewel
ers aggregation at the same
time on Wednesday.
That Westmont's Warriors
should be a tough challenge
for SOC is shown by the rec
ord. The Warriors hold a
victory over University of
Hawaii which has beaten
Oregon State college. Last
week end, Westmont downed
Chico State which trimmed
the Raiders twice in a recent
series. '
Coach Ted Schopf of the
SOC gang has pointed out
that his Raiders are a "raw
and green" club which plays
alternately well on one occa
sion and not so well on an
other. But, concerning the
Westmont series, he ex
pressed the belief that "we're
going to give them a good
go." '
The mentor also feels that
the Raiders can gain by
playing strong quints at this

from the deeper re
serves, have gained the na
national collegiate football
championship for 1959 as well
as the chance to give Syracuse
its first post-season bowl vic
tory in four attempts.
"Overall, I'd say the second
team is equal to the first,"
Schwartzwalder said. "You'd
have to flip a coin to see
which one would win if they
played each other full force."
Schwartzwalder, happy
with the starting lineup he
used in winning 10 regular
season games, is not contem
plating any changes for the
stage of the ' season.--"Then
when we play teanis) in our
own territory (the ; Oregon
Collegiate conference),.. weJ
can handle them."
Schopf reported that John
Payne, Don Vannice, Glen
Peterson and Gordon Carri
gan may be in the SOC unit
with a choice among' Dennis
Conner, Dick Puhl and Brad
Flanary for the other spot.
He said that Dave Gardner is
pressing Vannice at forward
for a starting birth.
Southern Oregon's junior
varsity, Hawkinson's and An
dy's are members of the
Southern Oregon Indepen
dent league but these games
reportedly are non-counters.
Elliott Set
For Illinois,
Reports Say
San Francisco CUPD Pete
Elliott, handsome master of
the drama of suspense, is
headed for Illinois - despite a
lack of announcement.
And when he goes it is
probable that all hands at
California will heave a sigh of
relief that it's over at last, ev
en though they loved the 33-
year-old so-called boy wonder
of the coaching ranks.
For six m o n t h s they have
known that Elliott was under
consideration to succeed Ray
Eliot (no relation) as head
coach of the Mini. But young
Pete hasn't been able to make
up his mind. .
"It doesn't appear there is
much chance to keep Pete
here,", says athletic director
Greg Engelhard. "It's up to
him to make the decision."
Chancellor Glenn T. Sea-
borg, who always has been
close to athletics at the uni
versity, has kept in touch with
Elliott throughout the negotiations..-:
'Still Don't Know'
"But I still don't know what
Elliott will decide," says the
p r i z e-winning nuclear scien
tist. - ... ,.
Assistant coach Dee Andros
is just as much in the dark.
"I wish he would make up
his mind," Andros says. "We
assistants , don't . know which
way to turn."
Pete's wife, Joan, isn't wor
ried too much by the whole
thing.. It is probable that she
knows every, thought in her
husband's head. '
"So how. are you going to
like going back to that snow
and cold?" we asked her.
"Well, if Pete decides to go
back, it will be fine with me,"
came the reply. "I've lived in
that cold country before and
it certainly doesn't bother me.
"Wherever Pete decides - to
go, I'll be happy to tag along
- just so I can be with him."
Not by The Records.
Elliott has been regarded as
the country's i 'and com
ing"' young coach for -a half
dozen .years now. The records
don't show it. But those in the
coaching ranks have high re-'
gard for his ability.
In four years as ahead
coach, .Pete has won only 14
losing 27. But he stepped into
a bad post at Nebraska and
won four, losing six.
Then he came to California,
where he won only one game,
losing nine. In 1958, the fol
lowing season, his club did a
complete about-face, posting a
7-3 record and going to the
Rose Bowl - but bowing to
Iowa.
This year, his Golden Bears
won their first game of the
season; lost the next eight,
then won the "Big Game"
against Stanford in the finale.
Maybe, with a change of
scenery, Elliott can come up
on the winning- side of the
ledger.

meeting with, fourth-ranked
Texas, but the strategy at the
moment is to alternate the
first two units at about five
minute intervals in the un
accustomed warm Texas
weather.
Quarterback Develops.
One big reason Schwartz
walder is so high on his sec
ond unit is the showing of its
quarterback Dick Easterly: -
"At the start of the season
we went with Ger Schwedes,
a halfback, as quarterback,"
the former paratrooper said,
"because we didn't have any
thing but sophomores there."
Dave Sarette, in relief of
Schwedes, showed so well that
he became the first string sig
nal, caller after the opening
game with;' Kansas and
Schwedes went back to his
regular halfback spot.
. -"Then Easterly began to de
velop and right now he's just
as good as Sarette," the coach
said.1! Both are sophs.
U In' addition to Sarette and
Schwedes, who scored 100
points this season,' the number
one backfield has sophomore
flash . Ernie Davis, ' a second
string All-American from El
mira, N.Y.", and Art Baker, a
junior, who is a heavyweight
wrestling champion in addi
tion to a fullback.
Both Lines Siieable
The line that normally
plays in front of these four is
the well-publicized "Sizeable
Seven" anchored by AIL
American guard Roger Davis
who is also UPI's Lineman of
the Year. . ..
The 70,000 fans expected at
the Cotton Bowl and the na
tional television audience will
probably see about as much of
the Syracuse second, unit as
the first, according to current
thinking.
Flanking Easterly on this
unit, are Pete Brokaw and
Mark Weber along with full
back John Nichols. The second
line, the "Unknown Seven,'
has often been as impressive
as the "Sizeable Seven."
Many who saw Syracuse
whip UCLA gave the bulk of
the credit to the number two
unit.
Orioles' Man
Sets Record
In Leagues
Chicago -(UPD- Knuckleball-
er Hoyt Wilhelm of the Balti-
more Orioles today officially
became the only pitcher in
history ever to compile the
fop earned run average in
both the American and Na
tional leagues.
The 36-year-old Wilhelm
won his first earned run title
with the New York Giants in
1952 with a 2.43 mark. And
he was the best in the Ameri
can league last season with a
2.19 percentage, according to
official averages released here
by the Howe News bureau.
15-11 Record
Wilhelm, who had a 15-11
record last season, yielded on
ly 55 earned runs in 226 inn
ings to beat out runner-up Ca
milo Pascual of Washington.
Pascual had a 2.64 earned run
mark and a 17-10 record.
Bob Shaw of the White Sox
finished third with 2.69, Art
Ditmar of the Yankees fourth
with 2.90 and Jerry Walker of
the Orioles fifth with 2.92. All
five are righthanders.
