Squaw Valley - (L'PIi - It was
Russia against the field in the
Winter Olympic Games today
with a determined United
States hockey team, a dedi
cated skating beauty and a
wayward skier keeping Uncle
Sam from being a complete
also-ran.
But there was no catching
Russia for the unofficial team
championship. With seven
days of competition still re
maining, the blue-clad Soviet

athletes already had compiled
63 V points in the "battle"
for the unofficial title. And
they have won seven of the
24 medals already awarded -four
more than any other na
tion. What's more they were fa
vored to pick up at least one
more gold medal today, per
haps two. There was no pros
pect for a first place for the
U.S. in today's three cham
pionship events.
Sweden Closest To Russia
Sweden was closest to Rus
sia with 29 points, followed
by Germany with 28 and then
the U.S. with 16. In the medal
department it was three for
the U.S. but none of them gold
- only one silver and two
bronze. But there is a gold
one coming up Tuesday unless
that skater, Carol Heiss, the
"old lady" in the field at the
tender age of 20, falls flat on
the ice in today's final com
pulsory figure or Tuesday s
free skating events.
And the U.S. hockey team
made the championship round
when it slaughtered Australia
Sunday night, 12-1, to join
Russia - yes, again - Canada,
Czechoslovakia, Germany and
Sweden in the title round.
There wasn't much hope they
would beat out the Russians
or the Canadians, but at least
they were still alive.
As for the skier:
Tommy Corcoran-who was
fourth in the giant slalom
Sunday - was born in Japan,
became a U.S. citizen, went
to Dartmouth and Harvard
and now lives in Beacons
field, Canada.
Largest Winter Crowd
There were more cheers for
him Sunday than anyone else
from the crowd of 47,000 - the
largest ever to view a winter
sports event in the United
States-when he flashed down
mountain KT-22, to honorably
combat the favored European
competitors.
His time of one minute and
49.7 seconds wasn't good
enough to beat 'em, but it
came close. He was only six
tenths of a second out of third
place - the bronze medal -one
fleeting second out of sec
ond the silver and a mere
one and four-tenths seconds
away from the gold medal.
For Tommy, it was a fare
well to skiing - on the day of
his greatest glory.
'"I'm having my last fling,"
he grinned. "It's time to go to
work."
In the women's figure skat
ing, the winsome Carol has
amassed 625.8 points in the
four compulsory figures
which have been performed
thus far, compared to 580.5 to
Holland's shapely miss, Sjou

Double Winner
Possible Today
Squaw Valley - (UPD - The
first double gold medal win
ner of the winter Olympics
was in prospect today with
the running of the 1000-meter
women's speed skating.
Included in the entry list
for the event were two gold
medal winners - Helga Haase
of Germany, who captured
the 500 meter race, and Lidija
Skoblikova, winner of the
1,500 meter race Sunday in
world record time.
In Sunday's 1500 meter
race. Miss Skoblikova was
pushed to victory by Helena
Pilejczky of Poland who fin
ished third in the standings
on a time basis. The Polish
lassie's teammate, E 1 w i r a
Seroczynska, was only five
tenths of a second off the
Russian girl's world record
breaking time.
Downhill Race
Glamour Event
Squaw Valley (UPD The
postponed men's down hill
race was the glamour attrac
tion today while the jump and
ski specialists hit the lonely
15-kilometer trail at nearby
McKinney creek for the
Olympic Nordic combined
crown.
Switzerland's Roger Staub
rated as downhill favorite off
his win in Sunday's giant
slalom race. The Nordic bat
tle shaped up between the
Russians, Norwegians and
Finns.
Staub prefers the downhill
to the slalom in which he
finally broke the jinx of being
an "eternal second." He start
ed eighth in a field of 66
skiers from 23 countries.

of U.S. Alpine princess Penny

cate of the metal ski.

Portland - "We beat them
our own way and we beat
them their way," exclaimed
Southern Oregon college
coach Ted Schopf as his Raid
ers beat Portland State 36-35
here Saturday night.
SOC gained possession of
second place in Oregon Col
legiate conference basketball
and cinched a berth in the
NAIA district tournament
early in March.
Following the second win
over PSC's Vikings (the Raid
ers won 74-50 Friday night)
Schopf further elaborated on
his initial statement. "Beat
ing them our way was by the
big score with good shooting
and the fast break.
"Saturday they slowed us
down with the deliberate
game and we gained the one
point nudge in the final four
minutes," added Schopf, "in
beating them at their own
game."
It was in the last six min
utes when Southern Oregon
finally caught up after having
never been more than four
points down at any time.
Take 35-31 Lead
Dick Smith hit a jumper
and gave SOC a 29-28 edge
but PSC jumped right back in
front 31-29 with a gifter and
field goal before Gordy Carri
gan put the Raiders in a 31
all knot.
Smith and Brad Flanary
added gift tosses and Glen
Peterson tallied a tip-in to
make the count 35-31 with
28 seconds remaining.
Don Powell scored on a
jumper for PSC with 18 sec
onds left but Carrigan added
the winning free throw when
the time waned to six seconds.
PSC called time to stop the
clock with SOC in the lead 36
33. PSC set the play for
Powell who drove for the bas
ket as the Raiders cleared a
lane big enough for a herd of
elephants to mill through. The
idea being not to foul Powell
who scored with two seconds
remaining and the Raiders

letting time run out with the
big one point edge.
The lead changed hands
seven times and was knotted
eight times before Portland
hit a gifter and took a one
point 21-20 half time edge.
Carrigan was the big gun
for the Raiders in the opening
stanza as he hit the first eight
points and tallied two gifters
during the rest of the half.
Carrigan gained the indi
vidual point honors with 15
while Powell hit 14 for PSC.
Smith was the top rebound
er for both sides with nine
while Don Bridges had eight
for PSC.
Tomorrow night the Raid
ers bring their desire for the
OCC championship to a full
blaze when they play host to
Oregon Tech in the Red
Raider gym in Ashland at
8 p.m.
A win for the men of SOC
would give them at least a tie
for the title and if Ore Tech
were to lose a single game in
their final series against Ore
gon College, SOC would have
the title all alone.
SOC's junior Raiders and
Prospect high school will mix
at 6:30 o'clock in the prelimi
nary game tomorrow night.
