The group picked this or der of finish: Washington, Southern California, UCLA, Stanford and California. The sixth school, Washington State, will be eligible to play in the Rose Bowl, but will not be eligible for the conference championship since the Cou. gars are playing only two members this year - Stanford and Washington.

(WSU photo) Washington Be Lucky To By HAL WOOD Pullman, Wash.-iCTU-Wash- ington State university joins the Big Six this year, offici- Uy opens play in a new 35,000-seat stadium at nearby Spokane - and will be lucky to break even in the won-lost column with its football team. The Cougars were admitted into the Athletic Association of Western Universities dur ing the summer and are happy to have some goal to shoot for - such as the Rose Bowl. But they play only Stan ford and Washington inside the conference and will be longshols to win either of these tilts. They do have, however, one of the great athletes in the West in Hugh Campbell, the pass-catching end who shat-1 ters records every time he j catches the ball. Heavily Guarded "But the opposition puis two or three men on him every time he runs down field," says coach Jim Suther land, "so maybe we'll have to use him as a decoy." The Cougars, with a 3-7 record last year, have 14 lct termcn. They have a fine crop of freshmen and an out standing lot of junior college transfers. There are only four seniors on the team that probably will play the most. Sutherland will use the unit system in substituting and all 33 boys arc expected to see a lot of action. On the No. 1 team, or "Big red" as he calls it, are Camp bell and quarterback Dave Mathieson. In the backfield with the signal-caller arc half backs John Brown and Ken Graham and fullback George Reed, a 5-10, 210-pound pow erhouse.

J. Lyman Bingham, execu tive director oi the U.S. Olym pic committee, said Los Ange les. San Francisco, Detroit and Philadelphia all were in the running. He added that al though New Orleans, Chicago and Minneapolis had failed to send word to his office they could have filed notice with Tug Wilson, chairman of the site selection committee. The committee meets Oct. 15. The U. S. choice still must compete with those from oilier countries. Tokyo is the 1964 Olympics site.

MEDFORDtSoIiTRlBUNB IPDroT Fanfare "It was not a bed of roses for us by any means." So stated Coach Fred Spie gelberg concerning the Med ford Black Tornado's grid en gagement with The Dalles High school last Friday night. "We had a rough game," said the head mentor. But he characterized the skirmish, nevertheless as a "darned good opener" for iiis charges. "We tried to do it the easy way and had to do it the hard way," he remarked. Spicgcl berg also brought out "it touk us quite a while to get going." GAVE US FITS Tha coach said that tht In dians were fired up and "they gave us fits with their de fense." A nine-man lint was uitd by tht Indians quite a bit of tht timt against tht Torna. do running gamt and thty played havoc with tht Med ford passing gamt by holding back pottntial rectivtri. "Thty wtrt a good team and wt wort thtm down." said tht Tornado coach. THE DALLES IMPRESSED Medford 's football team made a definite' impression at The Dalles. Said Rod Geier, spoils edi tor of The Chronicle, "You have a terrific ball club this season-sound and wilh depth. Based on his play Friday, I'd vole Jack Lowcry all-slate to morrow if it was up to me. ' "Miles is a great little quar j tcrback. He mixes his plays ! well and really keeps his op ponents honest. Also, a tip of the hat to Hammons, a great receiver." LEARNED A LOT Geier quotes Tht Dalles Coach Keith Tucker as say ing, "I'd still like to play Med ford again. I'd lika to keep on playing them, at least until we beat thtm. Surt wt lost. but we learntd a lot. . .I'd rath er play a ttam likt Medford. "We've got a good film of tht gamt and it will htlp us dis cover some of our weak nesses." CAME BY TRAIN A bit more detailed story on the Medford-The Dalles game had been intended for Sunday. It was to come by Western Union from The Dalles. When it had not arrived by early Saturday afternoon, we tele phoned The Dalles and found the story was mailed on the train. So, we took an abbrevi ated yarn by telephone. The letter from The Dalles reached our desk Sunday. MAY HAVE HANDS FULL It appears that tht Medford Black Tornado may have its hands full come Friday whan it entertains tht Marshfitld high football aggregation. Marshfield's 25 to 7 verdict over Klamath Falls makes tht Pirates look a little clostr than a prtviously reporltd "year away," "Thty hit hard; that's what I likt," said Buc Coach Pttt Susick of a group of lough linemen which included such vtlerans as John Mahaffy. Emit Mandtrs and Larry Smith. Dick Fishback, sports edi tor of tht Coot Bay World, re ported that ". . . it was hard for Marshfield fans and boost ers .. . to miss tht pottnt straight ahtad powtr tvinctd by this year's version of tht Pirates. GAPING HOLES The Bucs piled up 21 first downs to KF's seven and had an overwhelming total yard age of 356 to the Pelicans' 17. Said Fishback further, "On the ground, the holes were often gaping and in the air, both quarterback starter Butch Smith and second unit j I UNINGER'S '' ' qli READY-MIX By DICK JEWETT Mil Tribunt Sporti Editor leader John Briggs 1 oked sharp most of the lime." Doyle Gamble with 118 yards in 15 carries and Bud Walsh with 96 in 15 were th leading rushers. Gamble, showing cut away ability in open field, scored three of the Marshfield touchdowns and Walsh the other. The Bucs com rolled the ball in the second half. GEREN JERSEY RETIRED Vtrn Sttward.

FIRST FOR STEWARD Eagle Point high's win over Brookings last Friday In foot ball was the first opening game victory for Steward as a coach. "I'm pretly pleased over Ihe win but nut loo hap py over the way we got it," re marked the mentor. "Over all for the game," he said, "1 thought our defensive plans went fair and our oltensive plans flopped." He credited senior reserve Larry Dcllaven with a key tackle when Brookings was inside the Eagle 10 yard line and Bob Colpilts with a key pass interception which halt ed a Bruin drive. Veteran tackle Bill Hoclfl was used sparingly in the fra cas and seemed recovered from his bout with pneu monia.
