Phoenix utilizes mainly

Quartet of Stars Head
SOC's Gridiron Effort
Ashland - Frosh flash Doug
Olson was confined to only
six of the nine games played
by Southern Oregon college
but it was enough for him to
gain domination of the total
offense statistics.
Olsen, from North Eugene
High school, may become one
of the top quarterbacks ever
produced in small college
football in the Northwest, ac
cording to Raider Coach Al
Akins.
- Akins is first to point out
that Olsen is not only a fine
footballer, but he ranks high
as a student at Southern Ore
gon. Olsen likes to point to an
other frosh 'on the Raider
squad in Howard Hartman
from Healdsburg, Calif. Hart
man was Olsen's prime target
this season. The Californian
ran up an impressive record
of his own by catching 39
passes, a record at Southern
Oregon, for 685 yards. This
effort will place him in strong
contention when the District
2 NAIA team is chosen.
Hartman was expected to
be playing in the shadow of
Gordy Carrigan, an NAIA
standout from the year before
as an end. Carrigan was called
upon to fill at quarterback
for two games and was in
jured in another, thus putting
the aerial receiving job on the
shoulders of Hartman.
Although Olsen and Hart
man stood out for the most
part, Carrigan earned recog
nition aplenty in his own
right. The Crater High grad
finished his collegiate football
as a jack-of-all-trades, playing
quarterback and wingman.
Carrigan, who stands 5-10 and
weighs under 180 pounds,
passed for 205 yards in two
games, rushed for 143 more,

caught 23 passes for 352
yards, and scored four touch
downs in eight games.
Olsen's accomplishments
numbered 854 yards passing
and a net of 23 yards rushing.
The frosh signalcaller launch
ed the ball 107 times to have
someone on the receiving end
60 occasions for a highly re
spectable 56.1 per cent. Thus
his total offense was 877 yards
or an average of 146.2 yards
per game, behind a line that
was plagued by injuries every
game in at least one position.
Hartman's 39 receptions
and 686 yards was gained in
eight games (he missed one
because of a knee injury), for
an average of 85.8 yards per
contest. He was also the team's
leading scorer with 48 points.
' It is relatively easy to spot
the outstanding backfield and
wing stars, but it is difficult
to keep an eye on the impres.
sive linemen. However, one
such gridster at SOC has been
left guard Tony (The Tiger)
Brauner. Brauner gained top
honors last year after being
converted from a reserve
quarterback role to guard. He
was placed on the District 2
NAIA all-star team and the
Oregon Collegiate conference
top squad in his first year as
a lineman.
This season was no less of an
effort for the ex-Medfordite
as he was a big factor in
making the sweeps and dives
work for the Raider backs. A
big factor that kept him as a
prominent lineman was his
fine physical conditioning that
kept him uninjured.
Akins grants that it was this
quartet of stars that were big
factors in making the offen
sive machine of the Raiders
average 330.3 yards per game,
a mark unopposed by other
OCC members. However, he
is quick to point out the Raid
ers were a fine group for
working as a unit. This is one
reason he feels they had such
success in their games with
Lewis and Clark and Santa
Clara although they lost to
the Pioneers by two extra
points.
When you have six backs
who grind out over 130 yards
each in a season, it has to be
a fine well balanced team ef
fort with a number of out
standing stars, not just one or
two, Akins states.
With those words, Akins
wrote the finale to a fine sea
son in which the Raiders were
able to point to improvement
in every game which led to
their final 26-20 victory over
Santa Clara.

Jury Finds
May Guilty
Of Bribery
Gainesville, Fla. - IUPD - A
six-man jury deliberated only
40 minutes Thursday and con
victed Aaron Wagman, 27-
year-old Yankee Stadium
souvenir vendor, of bribing
a University of Florida foot
ball player in an attempted
betting coup.
In finding Wagman guilty,
the jury discounted a claim
by the defense that Wagman
only bank-rolled the bribery
of Florida fullback Jon Mac
beth and that New York teen
ager Philip Silber, a former
Floridas tudent and fraternity
brother of Macbeth's, master
minded the operation.
Wagman was released un
der $15,000 bond several
hours after his conviction and
left for New York with his
attorney, Joel Wineberg. Cir
cuit Judge John A. H. Mur-
phree gave Wineberg until
Dec. 1 to prepare a motion
for a new trial. Wineberg said
he plans to appeal the con
viction if the new trial mo
tion is denied.
Wagman faces a maximum
penalty of 10 years imprison
ment and a $10,000 fine.
Stilt Failure
At Foul Line
United Preu International
Wilt Chamberlain scored 45
points and grabbed 28 re
bounds against Syracuse
Thursday night - and yet the
big boy must accept the goat s
horns for the Philadelphia
Warriars' fourth straight de
feat.
Chamberlain, not oriously
weak in his foul shooting this
season, had 27 attempts from
the free throw line, a new
National Basketball associa
tion record. However, the
Stilt missed 18 of his shots
and the Warriors blew a one-
point decision to Syracuse,
106-105, in the second game
of a professional doublehead
er. The St. Louis Hawks won
the opener of the twinbill
played at Philadelphia, defeat
ing the Detroit Pistons, 11
105.
Veeck Dislikes
Allotment Plan
New York-MPll-BIU Veeck
of the Chicago White Sox said
today he didn't think the
player allotment plan adopted
the American league was lib
eral enough and he felt that
the new cities should have
more "name" players than
they're likely to get under the
setup.
"I know the White Sox
were willing to give up con
siderably more than the plan
allows," Veeck said.
"After all, these clubs play
nine games against us in our
own ball park and I feel per
sonally we could have done
better by those new clubs."
BOUT AT PORTLAND
Portland UP1 Kirk Barrow
of Spokane, a young man who
hopes to get a short at Port
land's Eddie Machen in the
near future, meets Monroe
Ratliff of Los Angeles in a
10-round heavyweight boxing
match here Tuesday night.
Barrow defeated Terry Lewis
of Seattle in his last fight for
the Washington state heavy
weight title and will be out to
score his 14th straight victory
when he tangles with Ratliff.

Oakland, Calif. - IUPII - The
way looked clear today for the
Oakland Raiders to move their

stick Park, in summer the
home of baseball's San Fran
cisco Giants. The Raiders an
nounced Thursday they had
asked permission to move
their final three games out
of Kezar Stadium in San
Francisco to the ball park.
CONERLY MAY NOT PLAY
New York -flJPD- Indications
are today that quarterback
Charley Conerly will not be
able to play Sunday when the
New York Giants meet the
Philadelphia Eagles in their
showdown game for first
place in the National Football

again and he had to quit.
TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE.
Woods, Water, Wildlife
By Hank DeVoss
Last week end was a lucky
time for those who made the
trek to the Illinois river.
There were a few salmon
picked up that weren't in too
bad a shape, but sometimes
any fish is better than none
at all. Contrariwise, the
Rogue wasn't too hot after
the first hour or so of day
light. GHOST TOWN
Last Saturday's fishing
safari tried Whiskey creek
on the Rogue below Rainey
falls and found spawning
salmon and a few ileelhead.
There seemed to be quite a
number of fish in the river
but they weren't doing any
thing after a fish or two
x was hung, worthy ol com
ment is the trip down to
Whiskey creek which lakes
you past the old Benton
mine, complete with cya
nide vats and empty houses.
This must have been quite
a beehive of activity before
it shut down in the thirties.
When passing through one
can't help but wonder what
effect the cyanide had on
the fishery when the vats
were cleaned and the poi
sons were flushed down the
creek into the river. Let's
hope them days is long
gone.
MARINE BOARD REPORT
The State Marine board in
releasing statistics compiled
from boating accident reports
states that during the first
nine months of this year plea
sure boating accidents in Ore
gon claimed 21 lives. There
were 104 accident reports,
CAUSES
The majority of accidents
involved boats that were
lest than 16 feet long, col
lisions between two or
more boats, and water
skiers. Causes of accidents
are overloading the boat,
making extremely sharp
turns, standing in a small
boat, boating in bad weath
er and reckless operation
which accounuted for tome
of the collisions. It was in
dicated that 16 lives would
have been saved had the
victims been wearing life
preservers.
If the Rogue continues to
show large numbers of
fish, there it a tlrong pro
bability that many fiiher
men will be fishing the ri
ver below Helltgate during
the winter teaton. In con
trast to the Applegate to
Robertson bridge section,
the Galice portion of the
liver it dangerout to boat
when boats are small and

In Tennis Final
Sydney, Australia - (UPH -
Barry MacKay of Dayton,
Ohio, may not be the most
polished amateur tennis play
er around, but until a better
one comes along he'll do nice

team captain David Freed is
concerned.
MacKay, the oldest mem
ber of the U.S. Davis Cup
team at 25, played his usual
over-powering but erratic
game Thursday, but when he
needed to win he came up
with his best to beat Aus
tralia's Rod Laver, 1-6, 5-7, 14-
Vi, H-4, 7-5, and reach the
final of the New South Wales
tennis championships.
Southpaw Neale Frascr,
also of Australia and general
ly regarded as the worlds

POND READY
The Medco pond, site of our
first streamside rearing pond,
has been drained and will be
completely treated with rote
none by tomorrow. A contract
has been let to Salem Sand
and Gravel to the tune of
$18,000 for construction of
the outlet facilities. The brood
stock will be spawned some
time next March and then we
will be in the business of rais
ing summer steelhead for the
Rogue. The beginning of the
road back to better fishing for
this fish is in the making.
Hooray!
ILLEGAL PLANT
A 13-inch German brown
trout hat been caught be
low Helltgate, confirming
a rumor that tome of theie
fish have been illegally
planted by p e r t o nt un
known. There have been in
dividual! in Grantt Patt
who have advocated that
the game commission
should plant these fish to
augment the summer fish
ery in that portion of the
liver. It lookt as though
someone, or more, decided
that he know more than
the biologists, and took the
matter into hit own hands.
The effort it largely wast
ed, because thit fith will
not take hold in water that
it warm or where tcouring
floodt occur. Even to, there
will be some who will be
lieve that one fith means
a fishery.
THE ANGLER'S LOG
The latest word from the
man who knows has to do
with the latest theory as to
why salmon take cluster eggs
in fresh water. It seems that
this is suspected to be an
estrogenic reaction that
moves the salmon to activity.
(What the man means is that
the bait is too sexy for the
salmon to resist.) Although
this might make it seem al
most unfair to use this me
thod, it is very effective for
those who fish for salmon in
a river.
Rogue River T h e Rogue
has been rather poor during
the past week, but there could
be a change any time. Three
more week ends and then the
upper deadline for those who
wish to catch an Ironhcad
will be Hellsgate canyon. The
prognosis is good; and this
rain may be the means where
by it comes true.
Klamath River The Klam
ath river keeps turning back
fishermen with limits. This
will continue, especially for
those who can keep a supply
of monster bait, night-
crawlers.
Smith River Reports are
coming in of many, many sal
mon and some steelhead. An
glers are catching both, with
conflicting stories as to how
many and how easily. It
sounds as though our favorite
winter river is getting a good
start again. At least the
ffirics are bigl
THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER
The game committion it
getting set up to make a
study of the effect of otter
on steelhead. The plan it to
capture tome otter thit win
ter and create a situation
where it can be determined
whether or not otter can
be contidered a teriout pre
dator of ileelhead. One
thing about it, they can't
be worse than steelhead
fithermen, even if they
don't buy a license.
