Newspaper Page TextB WEDNESDAY, WSU's Cougars Will Go More for Ground Attack During Campaign of 1963 Thin l mother in series of Ken Graham and John dispatches dealing with the 1983 prospects of major West Coast college footnaii teams. Bv SCOTT BA1LLIE PULLMAN, Wash. (UPI) -Coach Jim Sutherland, who has relied greatly on the aerial game during the past seven seasons at Washington State, will go more for a ground attack this year. "The movies of our first big scrimmage showed that we were moving the ball a little better on the ground than we did last year," Sutherland told the annu al visit of the Big Six Skywrit ers. "And we are stronger now and more mature." Sutherland, who did much to popularize the flanker attack, will be using a tight end brand of offense this year to get more yardage overland. Veteran Signal Caller "But that doesn't mean the forward pass is being curtailed much, especially with quarter back Dave Mathieson back after placing seventh last season among the nation's tossers. "Mathieson has good com mand of a huddle and is a pros pect," Sutherland said. "He is as good a thrower as I've ever coached." Missing is split end Hugh Campbell, who led the nation in receptions last year. Sutherland, however, feels that the Cougars will be better than the 1962 club which finished with five wins, four losses and a tie after a mid season collapse. "We're stronger physically and we're deeper in experi ence." said Sutherland, who numbers 23 lettermen on his squad. "I think we will be able to move the ball better and throw as well as last year." But he added that he was not ODtimistic. "The schedule is no slouch," he said, checking a 10-game slate that will find the Cougars on the road six times and ven turing as far east as West Point. He expects more out of his team than he got last year, say ing "It won't look like a million dollars at the start, then start to flop. I look for a gradual im provement." Mathieson, back as the num ber one quarterback on the "Big Red" (first) team, will be pass ing to Gerry Shaw and Dennis Kloke at the split end instead of Campbell. Shaw is a gifted re ceiver who makes the difficult tosses look easy. Kloke reminds Sutherland of Campbell both in appearance and running. OSU Loses Jerry Neil CORVALLIS, Ore. (UPI) -Senior guard Jerry Neil of Ore gon State who underwent opera tions on both knees last June, will miss the upcoming football season. The 219-pounder from Sacra mento, Calif., was ruled out Tuesday when it was announced that more knee surgery would he needed this week. Neil hopes to finish out his eligibility next season. Coach Tommy Prothro plan ned to put his Beavers through a full-scale scrimmage today, Willie Heston Taken by Death TRAVERSE CITY, Mich.-Fu-neral services will be held on Friday at Dearborn, Mich., for Willie Heston, ex-University of Michigan gridiron great. Heston, a plunging halfback on the famed "point a minute" teams of Coach Fielding H. Yost 60 years ago, died Monday on his Bath birthday. Heston, the first player out side the East's Ivy league to he named an All-American, had been hospitalized several days. A lawyer by profession, lies ton served as a recorder's crim inal court judge in Detroit for a time. Heston was born near Galesburg, 111., and attended high school at Grants Pass, Ore. NY Court May Rule On Molina Motion ROCHESTER. N.Y. (UPI) -The appellate division of the New York Slate Supreme Court may rule Thursday on a stay o( ex tradition motion for Jack Mo linas, former Columbia Univer sity basketball star convicted of bribery last Feb. 11. Molinas, 30, an attorney, re ceived a prison sentence of 10 to 15 years on the bribery convic tion but was released In fcsS.OOO bond from Attica State prison last April on a certificate of rea sonable doubt. Afler his release, Molinas was served with a warrant issued in Raleigh, N. C, which accused him of attempting to fix 19.i9 basketball game between North Carolina Slate and Wake Forest. However, Judge John S. Con able of Wyoming County, N. Y., granted a stay of the extradition order Tuesday to allow Molinas' attorney to be heard before the appellate division here. DES MOINES, Iowa (UPD The 1964 Girls' Junior golf championship will be played at the Leavenworth Country club, Leavenworth, Kan., Aug. 10-14, the United States Golf associa tion announced. SEPTEMBER li, 19113 1 Browne, both highly regarded seniors, return to the halfback spots. George Reed's graduation left a big gap at fullback but Sutherland figures on sophomore Larry Eilmes to do the job. There also are a couple of dash men seeking backfield jobs. They are Hcrm McKce (9.5) at fullback and Clarence Williams (9.6) at halfback. Up front there is Dean Kala- har, the team's 190-pound cap tain, as the number one center and also a hot candidate in Sutherland's book for an All America ballot. Clete Baltes, who wrecked Stanford with three interceptions last year, is tabbed for the tight end spot and also is a top cor nerman. But he might get a strong argument from sopho more Walt Frierson, a six-foot, five-inch speedster who came to school on a basketball scholar ship. The rest of the line is manned by veterans, including Roy Bus- se, a center who has been moved over to left guard. Coach Tabs L'SC Sutherland has picked South ern California to retain its Big Six title and revisit the rose bowl. Washington State plays only two Big Six opponents this year Stanford and Washington in the final two games ot me season. The Cougars won't face all of the new conference mem' bers until 1969. If one of the powers happened to crumble and the Cougars had a hot season, they would qualify for a bid to Pasadena, however. 'No coach can really tell what kind of a year he II have, Sum. erland said when asked to make a prediction. The schedule: Sept. 21-at Texas Tech; Sept. 28 at Iowa; Oct. 5 Arizona at Spokane; Oct. 12 San Jose State here; Oct. 19 Oregon State here; Oct. 26 at Army; Nov. 2 Idaho here; Nov. 9 Oregon here; Nov. 16 at Stanford; Nov. 23 at Wash ington.

' Jet Perry Released by Baltimore By GOERGE LA.N'GKORD UPI Sports Writer The final pre-season cuts by National Football league teams Tuesday were unkind to 30 play ers, including 16 veterans. But the unkindcst cut of all was the release of Joe (The Jet) Perry. Perry, a 13-year veteran who has gained more yards rushing (8,280) than any other pro per former, was trimmed from the Baltimore Colts roster just three games before he would have been eligible for the new player pension fund. Jerry Norton, a 10-yoar pro at defensive hark and eicht year veteran Mai Hammack, a I Southeastern conference: so league's best backfields with re fullback, both of Dallas; Jackie j iook toT e lea8ue t0 cnalk UP ! vamped Tennessee close behind. Simpson, a seven-year man with I anotner S"od year in national ; Georgia, manpower-shy Ken- Pittsburgh, and six-year pro Jim McCusker, an offensive tackle with Philadelphia, were among the more prominent players cut. However, it wasn't a black day for all veterans. Sam Etchervcrry, 33, a na tional hero in Canadian football for nine years but a flop with the St. Louis Cardinals the past two seasons, caught on with the San Francisco Forty Niners as quarterback insu r a n c e. Etcherverry had been released earlier by St. Louis. Jim Martin, 39, a place kick er whom the Detroit Lions per suaded to come out ot retire ment this summer, was traded to the Colts for a future draft choice, and offensive tackle Art Anderson was acquired by the Pittsburgh Steelers from the Chicago Bears. Perry broke in with the Forty Niners in 1948 and spent 11 years with them. He was traded to Baltimore in 1961. A player must have played five seasons since 1959 to be eligible for the pension. Time before 1959 does not' count. Hugh Campbell, an end from Washington State, was the most highly touted rookie to lose a job. Campbell, who set several pass catching marks as a col legian, was the Forty Niners' No. 4 draft choice.

The Southeast i By DAVID M. MOKKIT ATLANTA (UPI) Despite Pclt 01 personal prooiems. toot- i nan is sun Dig ousiness in uie ""a fice receipts. Mississippi, Alabama, Geor gia Tech, Louisiana State and Florida all bowl entries last winter can be expected to bat tle for top 10 berths this fall, giving the SEC, as usual, high record for its gridiron prowess even if its social status is in doubt. The personal problems, which have combined to cast a definite shadow on the SEC's future existence, include: Charges of game rigging which led to a widely publicized and initially successful libel suit; Planned use of Negro ath letes which has split the con ference into two camps; Reported planned withdrawal by some members which appear unhappy with present academic and scholarship regulations: And a growing gap between the haves and have-nots on the football field. Any of these may lead to the collapse of the SEC as it is pres ently constituted. But, for the present, the Dixie Dozen is back at the same old stands and a banner sea son is the forecast. Talent Abundant Defending champion Missis sippi is expected to win again thanks to an abundance of tal ent and a woefully weak sched ule.

Auburn should capture the remaining first division berth on the basis of one of the 1 iuck.v, Mississippi state, van' derebilt and Tulane all figure among the also-rans. The SEC appears to have more than its share of outstand ing quarterbacks this season. Georgia Tech's Billy Lothridge, Alabama's Joe Namath and Mississippi's Perry Lee Dunn all have the ability and team support to be All-America con tenders. Auburn's Jimmy Sidle and Georgia's Larry Rakestraw have the credentials but not the backing. Passers Outshine Runners While the passers probably will outshine the runners in the SEC this fall, the league has some horses. There's a unique situation in the SEC in regard to the rushing title. Alabama's Mike Frachia won in 1961, men sat out last season with an in jury while Florida's Larry Du pree copped the crown. Both are back this fall. Georgia Tech lays claim to what may be the best two ends on any one team in the nation. On one flank, the Engineers have 6-foot-5, 236-pound Billy Martin who was voted the best offensive end in the SEC in a pre-season poll. On the other, they have 225-pound Ted Davis, voted the best defensive end. There docs not appear to be a lineman in the conference this season on par with Alaba ma's departed All-America line backer Lee Roy Jordan. But Florida's 270-pound tackle Frank Lasky, Georgia center Lcn Hauss, Kentucky tackle Herschcl Turner, LSU guards Bobbie Hucklebridge and Pemi Prudhomme, Mississippi State Carpenter Tools for RENT at A lo Z Rentals 1213 N. Riverside 779-1474 "We. Rent Most Everything" OREGON Johnson Dies From Injuries KANSAS CITY. Mo. (UPI) -Slone Johnson captured the fan cy of the Kansas City Chiefs with his smooth, fleet running. Today he fostered their grief. Johnson is dead. The 23-year-old rookie, who once ran the 100-yard dash in a record-tying S3 seconds, suc cumbed late Sunday to s para lyzing back injury' he suffered eight days earlier in an exhibi tion American Football league (AFL) game at Wichita, Kan. Funeral services for the flank er back were scheduled for Wednesday at Mungcr Baptist cnurcn in uauas, wnere the i JuunK auiieie stance a cnmo to sports prominence. A paralyzing injury, s o m e what like the one that killed him, played a vital role in John son's development. As a high school athlete he was flattened by a back injury. Recovered, he said he could run even faster. Johnson became a hard-kicking back at Grambling (La.) college and excelled as a sprint er. He w a s one of the U. S. Olympic team that went to Rome in 1960. He worked out with the Chiefs last year while he was attending school and be came a highly-respected rookie tnis summer. One of the pre-season exhibi tion games the Chiefs played was a benefit in Seattle for paralyzed pole vaulter Bryan Sternberg. The next game was Aug. 31, at Wichita, against the arch-rival Houston Oilers. Johnson threw a kickoff block and fell paralyzed. His fifth cer vical vertebrae was fractured and he could move only his head and neck. His mother, Mrs. Jesse John son of Dallas, rushed to his bed side where she sat until his death. 'He just laid there," M r s. Johnson said, "That's all. His spirits were awful low all the time." guard Pat Watson, Mississippi end Allen Brown and Tennessee guard Steve Delong are all all-star caliber.
