NUMBER 89 Maury Wills of the Los An geles Dodgers slides into third base with his third stolen base of the night and 89th of the year during game with Chicago Cubs last night. Wills got such a good jump on the pitch that no play was made at third. Ron Santo of the Cubs could do nothing but stand there. With 17 games to go, Wills now has only seven more steals to go be fore he equals Ty Cobb's record of 96 thefts set in 1915. Wills, who now has stolen 13 bases in his last five games, also got four hits and scored three runs last night as the Dodgers blasted the Cubs 8 to 1 to remain half a game ahead of the San Francisco Giants. (UPI) MEDFORDcJWTRIBUNR Penn State, Navy Rated One-Two Contenders for Eastern Football Honors By STEVE SNIDER New York (UPII Penn State and Navy may settle the east ern college football champion ship in the opening game of the season Sept. 22. They're the one-two con tenders for the East's prized Lambert trophy, won by Penn State last year, and the schedule-makers who tossed 'em in together in the opener didn't do the defending champs any favor. The service academies, Army and Navy, both have an edge in physical conditioning in September and Penn State, though loaded, still has some problems to lick: No. 1. is finding a quarterback replace ment for the departed Galen Hall from among a group of four top candidates. Penn State, Navy, Syracuse, Pittsburgh and Army, the five leading independents rated in about that order for 1962, are involved in a round robin this season, so for the first time Jacksonville, Leafs Get Playoff Wins By United Press International The Jacksonville suns and the Toronto Maple Leafs took the first steps toward their expected showdown in the In ternational League playoffs Monday night with opening game victories in the best-of-seven semi-final round. Charlie Dressen's second place Leafs had no trouble in their 6-1 conquest of the third place Atlanta Crackers, but the pennant-winning Suns needed 11 innings to edge the fourth-place Rochester Red Wings, 6-5. PITCHER GETS LEAVE Los Angeles -d'PIi- Pitcher Julio Navarro was granted leave by the Los Angeles An gels until the end of the week to attend funeral services for his 15-ycar-old brother, who was killed in an automobile accident in Puerto Rico. Portland Team Opens Tourney Play Friday Portland - HW - Archer Blower of Portland will open its bid for the national Ameri can Amateur Baseball Con eress title Friday night. Its oDDonent for the first round of the eight-team, double-elimination national tour nament at Battle Creek, Mich., has not been selected. BOWLING VAl.LKY ROLI.LRS Valley Rollers League will open lis season on Thursday. Sept 13. at Medford Bowling lanes. Bowl ing time 10 a.m. MEET TO OPEN Portland-ilPH- The Portland Meadows horse racing track will open its fall meet Wednes day night. The meet will run through Oct. 27. i UNOFFICIAL WIN Newport, R. I. -(UPD- Woath- erly has defeated the Austra lian challenger Gretel in an unofficial and unscheduled America's Cup preview race. The race was instigated Mon day by Bus Moshbacher, Weatherly's skipper, who chased Gretel for about 15 minutes before overhauling the 12-metcr challenger. LEASHER DIES Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah (UPI) Saddened crew mem bers theorized today that high speed racer Glenn Leasher im pulsively changed a scheduled test run into a go-for-broke record attempt when he crashed to his death here Mon day. READY FOR BIG RACE Atlantic Citv -ilIPli- Fred W. Hooper's Crozier, winner of the Aqueduct Handicap, has been vanned from Belmont ; Park to the Atlantic City track for Saturday's $100,000 ; United Nations Handicap. Crozier has been assigned 118 , pounds for the 1 3' 16-mile iurf race 11 less than Kelso. , the eastern champ probably can be determined on a per centage basis with Holy Cross, Rutgers, Villanova and Boston College at best hoping to out rank one of the big five. Pace Ivy League In the Ivy league, Princeton and Dartmouth are the pre season favorites and, if form holds, they won't settle that feud until the wind-up at Princeton Nov. 24. Delaware heads the Middle Atlantic over Lehigh and Bucknell while Connecticut rates a chance to oust Maine as Yankee Conference champ. Army is one of the impon derablci in the eastern pic ture. The Cadets have a new coach in Paul Dietzel, who worked miracles at Louisiana State, and eastern experts aren't sure whether to expect' an immediate resurgence at West Point or a long range buildup requiring another year or two. So the forecasters go with the known values-Penn State and Navy. Has Veteran Squad Coach Rip Engle, starting his 13th season at Penn Slate, has 14 lettermen from his first two units and 21 in all from the squad that went through a 7-3 season last year and on to a Gator Bowl victory over Georgia Tech. For Hall's vacated quarter back slot, Engle has Don Caum and Gary Wydman, whose forte is running, and Pete Liske and Ron Coates, whose long suit is passing. Caum probably is the best bet. Standout returnees include end Dave Robinson and half back Roger Kochman, both All America candidates. Navy coach Wayne Hardin again is going for the three unit idea that carried the Mid shipmen to a surprisingly good 7-3 record a year ago. He has plenty of experience avail able with an All-America can didate in tackle Ron Testa. The quarterback brigade in cludes veteran Ron Klcmick, Bruce Abel and Bob Hcchl NIGHT OWI.

He takes over the post held this summer by John Nolcn who returns to South ern Oregon college as a stu dent and sports publicity di rector. Waggoner comes from Colo rado Springs. Colo., where he was on the sports staff of the Gazette-Telegraph. Nolen returns to Southern Oregon college a newlywed. He and Sheila Hale, also a student at the Ashland school, exchanged vows on Sept. 2. POLLS DIFFER Here's one for youl The Oregon Journal's A-l coachei board lists Medford high third and Grants Pais fifth in its pre-seaion foot ball ratings. However. Southern Oregon confer ence mentors name Grants Pass as the favorite in the league. The Journal A-l board In Its "guesstimate" picks Roieburg to repeat as champ. North Salem. Med ford. Marshlield, Grants Pass. Beaverton, Sunset. Jefferson. Grant and David Douglas rate two through 10 in that order. David Douglas nosed Pendleton and Lincoln by three votes. PHOENIX CHOICE On the A-2 front the sep arate Journal board for that division rates 1961 state co champ Phoenix high at the top of the grid heap. In order after the Pirates in the poll are Central of Monmouth-Independence, Vale, Myrtle Point, Rcedsporl, Seaside, Co quille, Yamhill-Carlton, Ban don and Willamina. WILLIAMS PICKER Bob Williams, Klamath Union high mentor, is the District 6 representative on the A-l poll. Leon Robin son, Glendale, is the Dis trict 6 A-2 voter. PLAYOFF CHOICES Should the prognostications of Rogue and Umpqua Valley league coaches bear out, Phoenix would play Glide for the District 6 football mantle and that winner would oppose Junction City in the A-2 state quarterfinals. Should the pre dictions for the Southern Ore gon and Mid-western leagues hold up, it would be Grants Pass and Roscburg again in the opening round of slate playoffs. INGRAM OPTIMISTIC Over at Grants Pass Head Football Coach Mel Ingram is voicing rare optimism. He told the GP Lion's club recently: "We're looking for a very, very good year. We'll not be big. Our largest line man probably will not weigh more than 190 pounds, but I think this year's boys will make up for that in their desire and their willingness to sacri fice other things in order to become good football players." This was Ingram's feeling despite a report by Line Coach Larry Stevens that the Cavemen lost their en lire 1961 starting forward wall. Stevens told the Lions that there would be more GP platooning this year. Back Coach Charley . Tourville declared that he had "lots of race horses just waiting for the signal to go." SPEED TO BURN Said Jerry Acklcn, sports editor of the Grants Pass Courier after the Friday night Caveman squad game: "It appears that the Cave men will have speed to burn, the big question is whether ihe line can keep up with the flashy backs. There were oc casions . . , that illustrated the mobility of the line which would indicate the potential is there." HIGH CLASS GAMES Acklen had said earlier: "All-in-all, it would appear to us that the Cavemen grid squad looks might good, BUT, the story is the same all over. Which promises some high class games for the season," CAVEMEN CITED Cited after the Caveman squad game were Bob Linde man on defense and Terry Isa bel!, Rich Ireland, Marty Bauer, Tom Sparlin, Gary Reddick. Bob Shcpard, Jim Pippin, Gary Van Kolen, Ly man Kcisecker and Dennis O'Lcary on offense. GOOD FARM SYSTEM Grants Pass has had two junior highs for a number of years. As of this fall Jo sephine ,county will have a total of four, including the two in the city. From a sports standpoint thai means four schools building toward future Caveman teams-a good farm system. CHICKEN AND BEANS Before the Klamath Union high squad gome last Friday night it was decreed that the winning squad would eat chicken and the losing crew would eat beans. As it worked out everybody ate chicken anri beans. The Red and While mixed wound up in a 6 to 6 draw. Asked Cleve Twitchell, the Mail Tribune's regional editor: "Was that a conspir acy." DEFINITE PROMISE Herald and News Sports Editor Jerry Waggoner re ported that the two squads showed definite promise and willingness. Coach Bob Williams said he felt the players put out and hit well "but we've got a long way to go." Some names that figured in the tussle: Rick Horn, Mike Kitching, Grov er Dahn. Verne Petrick, County Stadium Session Subject Of Linebackers County Judge Earl Miller and County Commissioners Chester Wendt and Edwin Taylor are to attend a meet ing of the Medford Lineback ers on Friday, Sept. 14. They are to discuss propos als which have been made for a county multipurpose sta dium. The meeting will be at noon at North's Chuck Wagon. Fights PhllBdelphin riTRTi Mirty Feldman. lf.9.

Beavers Keep Busy Despite Pouring Rain Corvallis -il'PU- The Oregon State Beavers got their first opportunity to handle a wet ball Monday as Coach Tommy Prothro kept them busy in a pouring rain. Twenty-eight players arc on the injured list, but Prothro hopes to have most of them in shape for the 1962 opener against Iowa State at Portland Sept. 22.

SHIFTED TO FULL Indications are that the Bend Lava Bears, who play Crater High school at Central Point on Friday, won't field a too hefty team. The Bears, however, do have a 210-pound regular returning. He is sen ior Le Cottingham who played tackle both ways in 1961. This season Cottingham will remain a tackle on de fense but will play fullback on offense.
