beat the varsity in football at
the University of Oregon ear
lier this month.
Coach Tommy Prothro, the
drawling southerner who is in
charge of the Oregon State
football forces, doesn't want
this to happen to his Beaver
varsity when it plays the
alumni here Saturday.
But it might, Beaver fol
lowers think, unless a sopho
more named Terry Baker can
come through.
Prothro is counting on the
former two time Jefferson
high school gridiron all-stater
on providing the passing to
make Oregon State's single
wing offense go this year.
And he's hoping the fine
throwing Baker will begin
this Saturday.
Rawboned Youth
Oregon State passers hit
only 35 per cent of their
throws last year and it was a
big factor in a 3 won, 7 lost
season for the Beavers, the
first losing season for Prothro.
So with his ace tailback
Don Kasso, a junior, out with
an injury Saturday, Prothro
is counting on Baker, a raw
boned youth who sat out foot
ball at the Beaver school last
year as a freshman "in order
to concentrate on studies."
A passing duel could de
velop between Baker and
alumni player-coach Joe Francis.

A resort report estimated
