'Old' Man Doing Well United Frets International Professional hockey is a game better suited for the young, swift and tough. That most experts will agree on, but then, how do you explain Gordie Howe, old, not so fast, and really not a tough guy? Thursday night, the 34 year-old Howe, now in his 17th season in the National Hockey league, scored his 29th goal of the current sea son and the 531st of his ca reer, and an assist to take over the NHL scoring lead. His latest goal left Howe only 13 shy of Maurice (Rock et) Richard's all-time record of 544-a figure Gordie is al most a sure bet to wipe out. Howe now has 60 points for the current campaign, one more than Johnny Bucyk and Murray Oliver of the Boston Bruins, and two more than Frank Mahovlich of the Tor onto Maple Leafs and Jean Beliveau of the Montreal Canadiens. Beliveau is 31, Bucyk is 27 and Mahovlich and Oliver are only 25. Prep Basketball United Prfsff International Pleasant Hill 54. Drain 34 Camas Valley SO. Yoncalla 31 I'll retire if I fail to regain the title," said Fullmer. "And I have no intention of retir ing. So that means I've just got to win." It was disclosed Thursday that Fullmer was suffering seriously from dysentery at the time of his defeat - a bout in which he was rocked and socked all over the ring and rarely hit back. Odds dropped slightly to 3-1 favoring Tiger after man ager Marv Jensen confirmed the story that Fullmer had had the dysentery before the bout, still had stomach cramps just before he went into the ring and that he was weak as a kitten during the battle. In the other camp, Tiger's handlers are just a little con cerned about their charge. He has worked 95 rounds of con ditioning. But after his final workout, trainer Jimmy Au gust opined the battler "did n't look quite as sharp" as he had hoped. 1 SPECIAL Used International Hey Baler Engine Model Twine Tie $1495.

Stanford, UCLA In Showdown United Press International Stanford and UCLA meet in a showdown Big Six bat tle tonight that won't settle the title, but could be a turn ing point for either club. The Cards have a 5-3 mark and the Bruins 3-3, but their records are deceptive.

MLOFOHU. Eagles Play Cougars In Rogue Headliner; SM Opposes Henley This year's Rogue league basketball diadem has elud ed the Eagle Point High school Eagles, who were the champions of 1962. But, there is yet their District 6 A-2 mantle that can be defended. And, the Eagles will be out this evening to clear what looms as the remaining big hurdle in their path to that titular defense. They play the Illinois Valley Cougars at Cave Junction. It won't be actually the last barrier in the Rogue race. Eagle Point and IV each have Sacred Heart games on their slates and the Cougars must go against St. Mary's. But, if the Eagles beat IV, they'll clinch second place and a spot in the district playoff and further games will have no bearing. IV, therefore, will fight hard to stay in the running. Tonight's EP-1V skirmish is one of six Rogue frays this week end. St. Mary's bids for prestige when it tackles the Henley Hornets tonight at Medford. Henley is the state's No. 1 ranked A-2 quint and already crowned league champ. Rogue River vies at Phoenix and Lakeview at Sacred Heart also this eve ning. Saturday Gamei On Saturday EP is at Sa cred Heart in Klamath Falls and Illinois Valley at St. Mary's. These games wind up the Rogue schedule except for an IV-SH makeup fray and possibly playoff for second place. Lakeview also is still in the running for a tie for second. Rogue River entertains Sutherlin of the Umpqua Val ley loop on Saturday. 'This is the big- one, said Eagle Piont Coach Dale Bates of the Illinois Valley game. "The boys seem to know what they've got to do and will be right in there going after them. This is the day." It will be a rubber game between the two clubs.

Eagle Point bounced back to whip the Cougars in league play 60 to 44. Going into the tangle with the knowledge that Illinois Valley has a "real fine ball club, the Eagles, in hard workouts this week have placed emphasis on defense. The 44 against the Eagles in the league was the least tal lied by the Cougars this season. Top Players The game will sec on the court a couple of the finest ball players in the league and state in IV's Darryl Gcllcrt and EP's Charles Pomeroy. Bates termed Gellcrt as fine a guard as his Eagles have seen this year. He scores, re bounds and plays defense all well.

Pomeroy, who gained all- state laurels last year is a top notch reboundcr and tops all A-l and A-2 scorers in total points this season with 404. Bates indicated that he may start a crew of Pomeroy, Bill Hoefft, Boatwright, Du- ane Whaley and John Linder but that either Richard Short or Frank Charley might be in the starting lineup. Coach Andy Anderson of the Cougars may pick his starting team from among Roger Martin. Ron Kcntfield. Charles Versteeg, G e 1 1 e r t, John Baurngardncr and Ron Thornhill.
