He announced Tuesday that the Kansas City Athletics of the American league had re newed their working agree ment with the Beavers. . But he said there is no pos sibility of working out an agreement to play in 25,000 seat Multnomah Stadium, home of the Beavers since 1956. Kingsley says that the sta dium is not feasible because of the high rent there. The league has given Portland un til Nov. 20 to decide where it will play. Kingsley said his first move will be to try to talk city fathers into building a new stadium. League President Dewey Soriano said several cities have shown interest in obtain-, ing the Portland franchise if it becomes available.

Eagle Point Primes for St. Mary's Eagle Point - Eagle Point highs football team this week is "trying hard to get its of fense going." The Eagles, who sport a 3-1-1 record, take on unbeat en St. Mary's this Friday in a Rogue league football game here. EP Coach Vern Steward characterizes the game as one matching a defense team against a good all-around one. "If our offense material izes, I'm sure we'll give them some problems," the mentor said. Steward brought out that he and his Eagles have a lot of respect for St. Mary's quar terback Jim Calhoun, for pass catchers Pete Naumes and Ron Roberts and ball packers Marv McGee, Jim Webb and Tom Darland and figures to have its problems, too. Pomeroy May Miss The coach said that Charles Pomeroy, captain, end and fullback and best blocker on the club, may be missing be cause of a knee injury. Bill Hoefft, tackle and end, def initely is still sidelined by illness. Dale Chamberlain, the club's leading tackier has a shoulder pointer, is in the "doubtful" category. Ed Hans corn, lineman, who has been ailing, will be on hand but may not see only limited ac tion. Steward indicated that it was pretty certain that the Eagles would have to bring some freshmen up to the squad this week. The Eagles likely will util ize their quick-kicking threat. Bob Henderson is the booter.

OREGON MedfordTribuni SJPdDMTS New Equipment Asked by Grid To Cut Head, Neck Injuries New York - IUPD - The chairman of the NCAA Foot ball Rules Committee has called for new equipment or new legislation to reduce the increasing number of head and neck injuries in college and high school games. Anything we cant cover by the use of new protective equipment may have to be covered by new legislation," said athletic director Herbert O. (Fritz) Crisler of the Uni versity of Michigan. Crisler spoke Tuesday at a news conference called by the Brunswick Corp. sponsors of a survey on high school foot ball fatalities conducted by a research team from the Ar mour Foundation of the Illi- Crater High Girds for GP Eleven Central Point - "We're try ing to find some way to stop their scatbacks," said Crater High School Football Coach Keith Johnson. The Crater Comets are drilling this week to take on the potent Grants Pass aggre gation in a Southern Oregon conference go. This game will be at 8 p.m. Friday at the Crater stadium. Grants Pass, which bounced back against Ashland last week after a cduple of defla tions, has wealth of fast backs to run against the thinner Comet forces. And, the fact that the Cavemen also have a strong passing threat, serves only to complicate the defen sive chore of the central Point team. "You have to figure they'll pass," said Johnson of Coach Mel In gram's crew. Won Last Week The clubs both go into the fracas after posting victories in their last assignments. Grants Pass caught fire to overrun Ashland 59 to 0 while Crater rallied to overcoi.ie Yreka 19 to 13. Yreka previ ously had beaten Ashland 21 to 7. Through this compari son, Grants Pass looms the favorite over the Crater club. Denny Ryerson, end and tackle, sidlined by a back strain last week, was back with the squad yesterday in pads yesterday and had the go ahead for full scale prac- tice today. Fullback Gary Wald was still taking whirl pool treatments because of being stepped on in the Yreka game. Back Philburn Brown suf fered an ankle injury from being clipped in the fray last week. Johnson said that it doubtful that he'll play Fri day. Branchfield Talks To Senior Citizens Club Constitutional revision should not be made until all Oregon voters have had am ple opportunity to study the changes, it was recommended Tuesday by legislative candi date Edward Branchfield. Addressing members of the Ashland Senior Citizens club, Branchfield traced the history of the present setup and ex plained the matters proposed pointing out the complexity of the legislation. He also de scribed several ballot meas ures voters will act upon Nov. 6. Wednesday, Branc h f i e 1 d was scheduled to meet voters during a morning coffee ar ranged by Mrs. Robert Dick ey, 201 Windsor ave., and Thursday he will attend similar meeting at the home of Mrs. Edmund Hass, 1615 Crown ave. SEVENTH GRADE CAME5 McLoughlin Black (3-0) will play Hcdrick Blue (1-2) and Hedrick Red and McLoughlin White (each 1-2) will meat at 4 p.m. Thursday in Medford Junior high seventh grade football games. Black and Blue vie at McLoughlin and Red and White ai Hedrick. or Legislation Rules Chairman nois Institute of Technology. The former Michigan coach was particularly concerned over the growing practice of head-on "spearing" and gor ing" which he warned may have to be outlawed from the college game. Head or Block Crisler described "spear ing" as a head-on block aimed at an opponent's sternum (breastbone). He said "goring" is a head-on battering man euver aimed by a defender at a ball carrier's head after the runner's forward progress has been checked by another de fender. "Spearing is being develop ed to a high degree," Crisler said. "The old shoulder block, crossbody block and leg block is becoming a rar ity in some areas both at the line of scrimmage and in the open field. It developed because the new headgear and face masks give a player confidence to drive in with his head down. Facial and dental injuries actually have gone down since the introduction of the face mask but head and neck in juries are up 82 per cent." Presence of Liston Seems To Slow Bout Houston - IUPD - Just being around world heavyweight, champion Sonny Liston seems to take all the fight out of most heavyweights. Liston was only refereeing Tuesday night, but fifth-rank ed heavyweight contender Cleveland Williams had trou ble getting Interested in his scheduled 10-round bout with Dave Bailey of Philadelphia. Williams, who lost two early-round knockout bouts to Liston, finally ko ed unranked Bailey in 2:56 of the fifth round. Williams landed a loop ing left squarely on Bailey's nose to end H. Liston had told both fight ers before the fifth to step up the listless bout. The crowd of about 5,000 booed loudly. SUIT FILED Portland (UPIl An $85,000 suit has been filed by a fath er -who says his boy was hurt in a fall at Memorial Coliseum in February. Patrick J. Ma- loney of Portland filed the suit agains the city of Port land, the Exposition and Re creation commission, an archi tectural firm and a finance company.

His confidence carries through to ignite his squad. He saw so much ability in freshman quarterback, on film, that he junked his of fense to make the best of the youngster's ability. He built his team on the ability of his players, and not on their adaptability to his patterns. That's Ara Parseghian, tu tor of the unbeaten North western Wildcats and United Press International's "Coach of the Week." Parseghian won the honor because his team, though the underdog, beat Ohio State Saturday, 18-14, coining from behind with a last-period touchdown to overcome a 14-0 lead amassed by the potent Iluckeyes in the first 12 minutes. 'We did nothing special on morale for the gai - -,' Par seghian said. "We just had the natural inclinations of a group of boys who were aware of the prominence of Ohio State, the team that won the Big Ten championship last year and was touted as national champion. Natural Morale "Along with the fact that we had roughly 22 Ohioans on the squad and a few coach ing staff members from Ohio to give us natural morale. Parseghian, himself, is from Ohio, Akron to be exact, and he played college football at Miami of Ohio. His college coach was Woodrow W Hayes, now the coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes. Parseghian, because of his Ohio background, competes with Hayes annually to get the best of his home state high school players for the Wild cats. Thai's how he happened to come up with his young ouarterback. Tom Myers of Troy, Ohio. "1 didn t have any trepida tion about changing our of fense because of Myers," Par seghian said. "I was quite aware of his passing ability, and we changed our offense to use his best skill. We did not try to force any particu lar formation, but allowed our personnel to align itself and used what they were best suited for."
