c O O NFLOwnersWorry About TV Policy MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. ORE. SUNDAY. JANUARY 29, 1961 By NORMAN MILLER New York-llJPli - National Football league owners feel they must find a new way of living with the television co lossus they've reared. Commissioner Pete Rozelle said Friday that "we are alarmed about the future of our league if we do not change our television policy to con form to the times in which we are living." The owners fear that under the league's present TV pro gram, whereby NFL games are shown on three different networks, some clubs even tually might wind up with no TV income. "From the way costs of op erating pro football teams have gone up, several teams could not survive without tel evision income," Rozelle main tained. "Costs have more than doubled during the past dec ade." A "package," or single-network program for the whole league would insure TV in come for all clubs, Rozelle and the owners agree. The big hitch is how to draw up a program that will meet with the approval of the department of justice. Cite AFL Program It is known that last spring the justic department told the NFL that such a program UO Ducks Win Over Washington Eugene- IUPH - Oregon's ' Ducks, led by Charlie Warren and Glenn Moore, rolled past Washington 67-48 in college basketball action Friday night. Warren, a 6-foot-4 forward, pumped in 18 points and Moore, a 6-foot-7 center col ' lected 17 points as the Ducks scored their ninth victory of the season in 14 games. Oregon rallied early in the second half to whip the Big .Five Conference Huskies. The Ducks rallied for 11 ' straight points to run a 29-26 half time lead to 40-27 and from there they were never in trouble. Denny Strickland put the ' Ducks out in front to stay with a free throw with 6:32 to go in the first half to make the score 22-21. Bill Hanson hit 14 points to 'pace Washington. Hanson, a 6-foot-8 center, fouled out with '15 minutes left in the game. ROOKS LOSE Portland-IUPll-Roy Jernigan popped in 20 points and Steve Anstett scored 19 to lead the Portland Frosh to a 55-50 vic tory over the Oregon State Rooks in a college basketball game Friday night. The Rook's Mel Counts tallied 20 points. would not conform with the antitrust laws. Since then, however, the young American Football league adopted a "package" program for the 19(i0 season and was not prosecuted. NFL owners ask, "If they can, why can't we?" "After innovating a tele vision program all these years under Bert Bell, we suddenly have become copy-cats," Ro zell said. "We want to do what the NCAA, the National Bas ketball associaion and the new league (the AFL) are doing. We want to put all clubs on the same network." At present, the away-from-home games of nine clubs are shown over the CBC network; two teams use NBC and the Cleveland Browns telvise over an independent network. Rozelle said he would like a single-network program to retain the present feature of each club televising its road games back to the home area. Woodland Paces OSC To Triumph Portland -lUPli-Crew-cut Jim Woodland, a 6-foot-l senior guard, scored 22 points to lead Oregon Slate to a 58-48 col lege basketball victory over Portland Friday night.
