MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, ORE Hawks Get Runnerup Position By FRED DOWN United Press International New York-fllPD-Minnesota's Golden Gophers are the na tlonal major college football champions of 1960 and-ac cording to Coach Murray War math-"wlll try to demonstrate we deserve the honor against Washington in the Rose Bowl." Minnesota was named to re ceive the permanent UPI tro phy emblematic of the nation al championship in the final vote of the United Press In ternational 35-man board of coaches. The Gophers, who rose to the top after a disas trous 2-7 record in 1959, were picked first by 21 coaches and beat out Iowa, 326 points to 300.

Navy 190, Arkansas 8-2, Ohio State 7-2 and Kansas and Ala bama which tied for 10th with 44 points each. "That's Just wonderful." said Warmath when he learned of the news in Buffalo. N. Y. Now we've got to demon strate that we deserve it by beating Washington' in the Rose Bowl. No, I don't think the burden of carrying the na tional championship will hurt us-I don't think winning ever hurts a team." Warmath paid tribute to his assistant coaches - Denver Crawford, Jim Camp, Wallace Johnson, George Nash, Robert Bossons, Dick Larson and Dick Borstad-and then added: Combination of Things It was a combination of a lot of things that did it for us. We had great coordination with the coaches, the players, the student body and the newspapers and radio and TV stations in Minnesota who helped us a lot."

Just Three Basketball Lettermen at Medford With the football campaign concluded more than one week ago, basketball drills now are In full swing at Med ford High school. With just three lettermen back from last year's Oregon Class A-l title squad, the best balanced club he's had, Coach Frank Roelandt has the task of picking players to fill big gaps left by graduation. The lettermen are 6-4 Bob Qulnney and Dick Ragsdale, regulars of the championship contingent and Jim Barry, member of the state tourney squad. "I think we are going to have a good ball club," Roe landt ventured. "Naturally, it won't be as strong on reserve strength but Its going to be real tough, I think." Mike Hood is among those who nave turned out and Roe landt says he's looking pretty good despite the fact that he did not play last season be cause of a knee Injury in the Jefferson football game. Stan Dowson, a Junior varsity standout last season, is bid ding strong for a berth on the opening five. I IN r 0 BALLET DANCE Philadelphia Warrior Warrior-Los Angeles Laker basketball game.

Red Sees By HAL WOOD United Press International San Francisco OJPlt Coach Red Hickey of the San Fran cisco Forty Niners, his eyes red-rimmed from peering into the dark, spent five hours Monday watching what he called the 1960 "film of the year." It was the picture account of the Forty Niner 30-22 upset victory over the Baltimore Colts Sunday. "It had everything," av erred Hickey, "including dar ing and suspense. There wasn't any ' love-making in it, of course, but who needs love in a case like this?" "My, wasn't that beautiful," added Hickey as he watched third-string quarterback Bob by (Muddy) Waters complete consecutive passes to Clyde Conner and Dee Mackey, the last for a touchdown. "Did you ever see such fine pat terns? And wasn't Muddy cool when he threw the ball?" All Hail Muddyl It was Waters who came off the bench to spark the winning drive when both regular quarterbacks, John Brodie and Y. A. Tittle, were sidelined with injuries. Wa ters also sat In on the film review of the game, which started at 11 a.m. and con tinued until 9 p.m., with an hour out for lunch. "Shucks, it was nothln'.V said Waters. "I was kinda nervous in the huddle. I didn't even think I would get in the game. Suddenly coach called Roelandt started this week with a squad of 18 players. The crew la to be cut to 13 Wednesday. Since the players from the football team reported for the hoop sport, work has been on fundamentals and offensive patterns. Yesterday the squad "hit at some defense." Roe landt emphasized that things were still on a trial basis as he attempted to pick his squad. Some 60 boys, in all, bid for varsity basketball. Roe landt worked with sophomore prospects the week of Nov. 7. He kept five sophomores and had seniors and juniors out the following week, then made another cut. Regular sophomore practice started yesterday. Medford varsity will go into action on Dec. 9 here against Marshficld and will oppose North Bend on the fol lowing night. Tornado junior varsity vies this Friday with Class B 'ools at Prospect in the county jamboree, i .-l "IJ Leadership in four other de partments remained the same. Chamberlain paced the league in rebounds with 515 retrieves and a 28.6 per game average, including a record 55 in a single game. Baylor fol lowed with 418 and 20.9. Sam Jones of Boston con tinued his field goal accuracy with 82 for 170 attempts and a .482 percentage. Hal Greer of Syracuse retained the runner-up spot at .481. Dolph Schayes of Syracuse, 'Film of Year' 'Hey, Muddy' and gave me the play." Waters isn't sure what hap pened after that. The rookie from Presbyterian College in Clinton, N.C., was a bit stage struck at the time. It was his first test as a quarterback in the National League. "I kind of forgot the play in the huddle," he recalls. "I couldn't remember exactly. I guess I was a bit' messed up." Anyway, Bobby completed a pass to Conner on his first attempt in the big leagues that was good for 20-plus yards. Then on the next play, he passed complete to rookie Dee Mackey. Mackey was hit as he caught the ball, lateral ed to R. C. Owens. Owens then ran unmolested 28 yards to score the winning touch down. Happy Ending All this Hickey and his staff of assistants watched time and again in the movies and it c HIGHEST RESALE VALUE Dart is a full-size Dodge priced model for model with Ford and Chevrolet. t Yet, according to the November report of the National Automobile Dealers, Association, you get lots more when you trade it in. A FULL-SIZE DODGE PRICED MODEL FOR MODEL WITH FORD & CHEVROLET DARTS ;.. iff ii sis. one of the deadliest shooters from the free throw line, led the charity tossers with 137 connections in 155 tries for an .883 percentage. Cliff Hagan of St. Louis was second at .879. A surprise leader in assists, Oscar Robertson of Cincin nati increased his average of successful feeds to 8.5 and his totfW to 196. Guy Rodgers of Philadelphia again trailed with an 8.0 mark and 144 as sists. was a delight to behold. Waters had to acclimate himself to a strange formation to get the deed done. Hickey had Installed a sort of double wing, spread formation to confuse the Colts. Waters, who had been practicing all year as a T-formation quarterback took to the new plan like i kid to candy. Will Hickey use the new "shotgun" formation against the Los Angeles Rams this Sunday? "We'll wait and see," says the idea man. "But we'll try and cook up something that will give us a chance." The Forty Niners are 5-4 and one game out of first place in the Western Division National League race. Having used up the T-formation and the double wing, Hickey now is faced with coming up with something en tirely new. There's a chance he could turn the trick.
