"We think we'll definitely Improve over last week," re ported Head Coach Jack Woodward. He pointed out that the Pirates lacked spark in a loss to Ashland last Fri day night. Much time has been spent on offense during the past several days to in ject more spirit and desire into the assuull and to fa miliarize new players with the Phoenix system. Woodward said that the Pi rates don't plnn much change In starting assignments but that "the new kids are bound to see some action." Bolstering Threat The tutor indicated also that Phoenix may open up its attack. Mike Consbruck was a real threat in a losing cause against Ashland last week with consistent gains up the middle. To balance his run ning and to give it more or feet, the Pirates have been working at getting an outside attack going. There are some real fast boys working at tail back but they need experi ence, the coach stated. He listed Jerry Moore, a Junior, and Bill Davis and Monty Combs, seniors "We, definitely, are going to throw the ball more, add ed Woodward. Brookings is reported "load ed" with experienced players, Including quarterback Bob Raymond back for his third season. fall, may well get his wish. There are rumors of rejuve tion from the Trojan camp. Sacred Heart last year gave stern challenge to St. Mary's and other teams as well but tasted triumph only once. The Trojans, looking to im prove, trimmed the Henley junior varsity 20 to 0 last week. Changes in the SM lineup this week will see Aundre Knulson at right half, which position he took over last Fri day when regular Dick Evans sustained an injured back, Jerry Vakoc at right guard and Paul Elliott at left end. Dan Jacobson may be at the other end, Pat Stinson and Marv McGee at tackles, Brian Von Buskirk at the other guard and Mike Stin son or Don Pruitt at center, Backs likely will be Jim Cal houn, quorter; Alex Mete. led half, and Fred Lucas fullback. bl.

By MILTON RICHMAN United Preis International They separote the "men' from the "boys" tonight and the odds-makers are stringing along with the men who have always won the big ones in the past. mat means the pressure tested New York Yankees will be 7-5 favorites to beat the battling young Baltimore Ori oles tonight in the opener of a four-game scries that could decide the American league pennant winner. Whitey Ford, the 31-year- old southpaw, who still rates as Casey Stengel's blue chip pitcher even though he hasn been especially impressive of late, will start for the Yankees against Steve Barber, a 21 year-old ire-balling left-hand er, who only last season was in a Class D baseball kinder garten. One Point Ahead The Yankees go into the series one percentage point ahead of the eager second place Orioles. We know what we gotta do," said Stengel. "We have to, take three out of four.' If the Yankees do, it will dash the pennant hopes of the Orioles, who finished sixth last year and began the cur rent season as 20-1 longshots So far this year, the two teams have split even in 18 games. The Orioles won eight of 11 in Baltimore -and the Yanks took six out of seven in New York. Virtually all the Yankee players feel they have the edge in the current scries because it will be played at Yankee Stadium. Baltimore manager Paul Richards scoffed at the notion that his "baby birds" might choke up or buckle under the tremendous tension of this vi tal series. Felt Pressure Before If they were going to do that, they would have long before this," Richards said. 'They faced some critical sit uations all through the sea- Oregon State, USC Kick Off Season; Oregon, Idaho Vie son and came through okay. Why should It bother them anymore now?" Richards did point out, how ever, that the real winner of the series between the Yan kees and Orioles could be the third-place Chicago White Sox, who are only two games off the pace. "A split in this series would give the White 'Sox a lift," he said. So there you have it and you can take your choice either the Yankees, who have won 24 pennants, or the Ori oles, who never have won i single one in their history. There were no games sched uled Thursday in the Ameri can league. Bucs Boost Lead In the National League, the Pittsburgh Pirates increased their lead to six games with a 3-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Milwau kee Braves beat the Chicago Cubs, 3-1, and the San Fran cisco Giants scored an 11-in-ning 8-6 victory over Phila delphia in the only other game. Bob Skinner hit a two-run homer and Bob Friend pitched a six-hitter to lead the Pirates to their victory over the Dodgers. Friend struck out five and walked only one in winning his 16th game. Lew Burdette won his 17th game for the Braves with a two-hitter over the Cubs. Ed die Mathsws drove in two of the Braves' runs and Alvin Dark collected three of which were triples. His third triple of the game came in the 11th inning and drove in the tie breaking run. y 1.INESCOKES: National League Los Angeles 000 100 000 t 6 0 Pittsburgh . 200 000 Olx 3 0 1 urate.

International College football returns to the Pacific Coast this week end in the start of what fig ures to be one of the area's strongest years since World War II. The West Coast griddcrs finally indicated they were ready to play with the big boys when Washington rolled over Wisconsin, 44-8, in the Rose Bowl last new year's. The Pasadena oval is the exclusive property of the Big Five conference this year for the first time. And the Big Ten has pulled out of its end of the pact leaving the Big Five champ free to pick its foe for the Pasadena classic. The experts tab Waehington and Southern California not only co-favorites for the Big Five, but genuine candi dates for high national rank ing. UCLA is tabbed as a not- too-dark horse arid drums are beating for Oregon as the top independent hope and another team that might sneak into the national picture. USC kicks off action tonight when it hosts Oregon State. McKeever Shift In a much-discussed maneu ver, Troy's rookie coach, John McKay, has shifted rugged end Murlln McKeever to full back. Marlln's brother, Mike, Is still at guard where he anchors a ferocious line that Is probably the West's best. McKay s main problem may be to find a quarterback to engineer his multiple -T at tack. The Trojans figure to have little trouble with the Beavers, however. Saturday afternoon, the Washington powerhouse tunes up against COP at Seattle Even Husky coach Jim Owens concedes his only problem this year will be to keep his boys "hungry." The entire starting lineup returns Including quar terback Bobby Schlorcdt, a real come-through guy who always seemed to be able to mush the Huskies in the clutch last year. Oregon also figures to have a breather when it hosts Ida ho, Quarterback Dave Grosz Is an old fashioned triple thrcater who docs everything but carry the watcrbtickct for the Ducks. The real question for coach Lcn Casanova, how ever, will be how a beefy crop of soph linemen perform. Two Big InUntTtlona.li California hosts Tulanc In an Intcrscctinnal rated as a toss up. It will be the debut for Bear coach Marv Levy, who has shifted California from a ipllt-T to a wlngcd-T offense. Levy Is gambling heavily on soph Quarterback Randy Gold. But he main Bear bugaboo may also be its line which av erages a small 192 pounds. California received good news Thursday when veteran line man Roland Lasher was de clared eligible. He had been on the borderline scriolastical- iy. Saturday night, in probably the weekend's top contest, UCLA meets Pittsburgh in a high-powered intcrsectional at Los Angeles. It shapes up as an Interesting strategic battle between Pittsburgh'j Power T and UCLAs single wing speed. Coach Billy Barnes has add ed flanker patterns to the basic single-wing plays and the Bruins figure to throw more passes this year to crew of fine receivers. Billy Kilmer will start at the key tailback slot. Stanford meets Washington State at Spokane Saturday night in another even battle, It should be quite an offensive spectacular with Stanford led by the 1959 national total of fense king, Dick Norman, and Washington State headed by halfback Keith Lincoln, prob ably the coast's top rusher and a gentleman who just about sank the Cards single handedly last year.

The wondrous one did it Thursday and picked up two other hits. He thereby not only won a ball game for his ban Francisco Giants, but also considerably enhanced his own chances to cop a sec ond National league batting title. The Giants had to go 11 innings to down the Philadel phia Phils, 8-6. Mays' third triple drove in the go-ahead Giant tally and be scored the final Insurance run himself on Willie McCovey's sacrifice fly. The Giants '-came here fol lowing the win and found themselves back in the thick oi tne National league pen nant race. The red-hot Cards are running out of time in their attempt to make up the six games by which they trail Pittsburgh. They must take two out of three from San Francisco to stay within hailing distance of the Bucs.

Ashlanders Will Face Indian Club Ashland As in numerous high school gridiron camps this week, the Ashland Griz zlies have been firming up their defense. Result of their efforts will be seen tonight when they travel to Roseburg. The In dians, while not hefty, boast speed and appear to have one of their best clubs in several seasons. Heading the Roseburg at tack is quarterback Mike Brundage, who runs the op tion well in the varied T at tack and has good ends to catch his passes. Brundage completed 10 of 12 throws, mostly to Ray Palm and Leon Blix, last week in a 28 to 7 victory over Grants Pass. The Indians have a good fullback in Mike Flury and halfbacks Tom Therber and Marlln Burgess are effective on the sweeps.
