Iowa, Mississppi Will Be
Pushed To Hold Top Place
By DICK JOYCE
United Fnu International
Iowa and Mississippi, the
country's top-rated teams, will
be hard-pressed to retain their
rankings from 1959 national
champion Syracuse when col
lege tootball once again cap
tures the spotlight on Satur
day.
Iowa, present kingpin of
the powerful Western Confer
ence which boasts four of
America's top 10 teams and
seven of the first 16, is
nine-point favorite to down
Purdue at home. The Buck
eyes are undefeated in four
starts and were voted the no.
1 team in the most recent bat
loling of the United Press In
ternational Board of Coaches,
Purdue Is rated eighth and
will rely on its size and power
to offset Iowa's eye-dazzling
speed.
Favored by Nine
Mississippi is also a nine-
point choice against an equal
ly unpredictable foe In Ar
kansas. The Razorbacks upset
Texas by onn point last week
and have lost only to unde
feated Baylor In five games.
They also will have the ad
vantage of their home sta
dium. Ole Miss has won five
' games without a defeat, Its
last- conquest coming over
, Tulane.
Syracuse has twice come
within a bad bounce of defeat,
but should have no difficulty
in running roughshod over
winless West Virginia. It
would take nothing short of
a football massacre to satisfy
the pride of last year'g na
tional champions.
Major contests which are
rated close to even by tne
oddsmakers include the tra
ditional battle for the Little
Brown Jug between Michigan
and Minnesota, the Southwest
Conference game between

Michigan Is Choic
Although Minnesota is rank

the Wolverines now are favor
ed by l'2 points to win this
5lst contest of a bitter rivalry
at Ann Arbor. Michigan was
lucky In getting a 14-7 deci

week while Minnesota defeat
ed Illinois, 21-10, to maintain
its perfect record.
Texas, which has won three
games by shutouts but was
beaten the two times its de
fense was broken, is a one
point underdog in the night
game at Houston. Rice has
won three of four, including
a 47-0 romp over Southern
Methodist last week.

Houk Says
NY To Go
On Winning
New' York -UIPH- Ralph
Houk stepped into his new
job as manager of the New
York Yankees today with the
quiet assurances that "I'm the
boss and the club will go on
winning."
The first change indicated
by the 41-year-old new boss of
the American league champi
ons was - the possibility of
some coaching switches.
Houk is understood to want
to litre ex-Y ankee Hank
Bauer as one of his coaches.
"This club isn't going to
drop dead," the ruggedly
handsome Houk told report
ers. "How can a team with
Mickey Mantle, Roger Maris
and Bill Skowron drop dead?
It s going to go on winning."
No Yes Man
Houk then used the words
employed only 49 hours earl
ier by Casey Stengel, when
the 70-year-old pilot who had
led the Yankees to 10 pen
nants In 12 years was axed,
to describe his position:
For your Information." he
said, "I'm no yes man."
Stengel had Implied at Tues
day's press conlerence that
the front office had tried to
interfere with his handling of
the club. Co-owner Dan Top
ping has said he falls to un
derstand what Stengel was
talking about.
Houk, a native ot Law
rence, Kan., who has the
poise ot a fellow who rose
from private to major in the
Rangers and fought at the
Bulge and Bastogne, made a
strong impression at his first
press conference as the
'boss." He smoked placidly
on a long cigar, caught and
tired back a steady stream of
questions and seemed com
pletely at ease.
Expects Fow Deals
"I don't think you can ex
pect us to make a flock of
deals," he said. "A club that
wins a pennant rarely docs."
Houk was asked if he plan
ned to vise the same tactics
that Stengel used with the
club.
1 don't think I'll platoon
as much although I will pla
loan some," said Houk. "1
was around Casey quite a bit
and I think I learned some
thing. But I'll do my own
thinking. I'll be In close
touch with my coaches but
I'll pick the pitchers' rotation.
Tho decisions will bo mine."

Illinois has split its four

Stanford's
Indians May
Catch Fire
United Press International
Jack Curtice's bedraggled
btaniord Indians nave a way
of catching fire when they
reach the sixth game of a sea
son and UCLA, an 18V4 point
choice to win Saturday night's
game in Los Angeles, might
do well to be on guard.
In 1958, the Indians lost
four out of five and then
trimmed the Bruins, 21-19
Last- year they had dropped
another four out of five, head
ed for Los Angeles like babes
In the wood, and made mighty
Southern California battle to
pull out a 30-28 decision.
Now Stanford has lost all
five of its games and looks
like a setup for the Bruins
who lost a 10-8 toughie to
Washington last week. Curtice
isn't even telling Jokes right
now. So another nerve-buster
could be in the works this Sat
urday night.
Other leading games pit
Washington and Oregon State
at Portland, Oregon at Cali
fornia, College of the Pacific
at Washington State and San
Jose State at Arizona State.
Norman or Sears
The big question at Stan
ford is whether Curtice will
start Dick Norman, the best
passer in the nation last year,
or Rod Sears who has looked
sharper In recent outings. The
Bruins are all set with BUI
Kilmer, their sharp tailback
and number one tosser.

Drive by Royals
United Press International
Oscar Robertson says he's
learning more with every
game in the National Basket

first two performances how
much better can he get?
Robertson sparked a last-
half rally that gave the Cin
cinnati Royals a 113-105 vic
tory over the New York

Square Garden Thursday
night. He scored only seven
points during the first half,

scoring but what he docs on

Who Calls Your Plays?,
Ail-American Gridster
Moomaw Asks at Dinner
"Who's calling your plays
beyond the gridiron In this
game ot life?"
That concluding and force
ful question was asked by
Donn Moomaw, one-time All-
American football player, in
a talk last night at the Med
ford High school cafeteria.
"God is calling you to be
on the team and leave the
knocks to him," Moomaw
said. "Get on his team," he
urged.
Moomaw, minister of new
life and evangelism at the
First Presbyterian church of
Berkeley, Calif., who gained
his gridiron honors at uni
versity of California at Los
Angeles, addressed a dinner
attended by Medford and Cra
ter High school athletes, by
Medford school faculty mem
bers, including coaches, ana
by others interested. The din
ner and talk were sponsored
by the United Presbyterian
Youth fellowship and mem
bers of the Presbyterian
Men's association served as
hosts,
Personal Relationship
"Remember," Moomaw
said, "the only way you'll
ever be a champion in the
game of football or game of
life is when you take sincere
ly your personal relationship
with God."
Not every guy determined
to be a champion Is going to
be an Ail-American, Moomaw
pointed out. He stated that a
champion in the eyes of the
coaches is "one giving 1,000
per cent all of the time no
matter how poor it is." And,
he advised, "Don't ever be
content to be third string:
don't be content to be next
best."
bpeaking of his summer
experiences at Estes Park,
Colo., where some of the
greatest athletes in the coun
try gather for a time "inspi
ration and perspiration, Moo
maw developed the question
of "what makes these men
champions - what goes into
these men ... to make them
excel?" Said the minister, "I
think you'll find that some
where along the line there's
been a handicap - they've
overcome something." He
mentioned his own struggle
to gain coordination, which
he lacked because he grew
too fast.
Always Determined
Every one of these men at
Estes park are determined to
be champions every time they
go for the ball, the speaker
brought out.
"I never saw a champion
who was not always deter
mined to be the very best he
could be," Moomaw declared.
Relating his experiences In
playing pro football in Can
ada, Moomaw told the group
that all his life he had wanted
to play American pro ball
and he had wanted to play
for the Los Angeles Rams.
However, in his junior year
"something happened to alter
my entire life. 1 did not want
anything to come into my life
that would Interfere with
worshipping the King." He
pointed out that, while Amer
ican professional football is
played mainly on Sundays,
games in Canada are con
tested on Saturdays and on
Wednesdays.
Morally Responsible '
Since 1 gave my life to
Jesus Christ," said Moomaw,
'1 have had a desire to share
that life with others." He said
he was "morally responsible"
to share it.
Moomaw told of an inci
dent In which he was asked
to express his religious views
to a group of players. He said
that as he walked away, he
heard someone laugh and this
laughter "crushed" him. Lat
er, this player who laughed
asked Moomaw to lead the
squad In prayer before a
game.
"Something happens be
tween the laughter and the
crowd," declared Moomaw.
You can see how shallow
our laughter really is."
Dick Ragsdale was student
chairman of the dinner. The
invocation was by Dr, D. K.
First baseman
Roger Mams
from left to

West, pastor of First United
Presbyterian church here. Dr.
Leonard Mayfield, Medford

byterian Women's association

North's Chuck Wagon was

Approximately 130 attend

Moomaw was an All-Amer-Ican
lineman in each of his
three varsity seasons at
UCLA. He was named to ev
ery All-America team in the
country in 1954 and both the
United Press and Associated
Press picked him "lineman of
