MEDFOKD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDKOKD, OREGON FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, JD63 B 3 Washington, USD Scuffle In First Crucial of Big 6 By SCOTT BAILLIE UPI Sports Writer The scramble for the Rose Bowl could end as early as Sat urday in Seattle when ninth ranked Southern California rams into the Washington Husk ies. . Listed as the first "crucial" of the season in Big Six action, it also might be the last one in a game featuring two teams that have grown hot after unim pressive starts. The rest of the league is struggling. USC, a six point favorite, owns a 1-0 mark in the confer ence and is 4-2 for the season. The Trojans opened defense of the Big Six crown last Saturday by brushing off California, 36-6. Washington has won three straight after dropping its first three. The Huskies, also 1-0 in the conference, once more can count on fullback Junior Coffey to whack into the Trojan line. He scored twice in last week's win over Oregon after being pronounced out for the season because of a broken foot. Bears-Bruins Vie Although USC shares the Big Six lead with Southern Cal and Washington, the Bruins host California Saturday night in what is listed as a battle of have-nots. The green Uclar.s have lost five out of six this year while California is 2-3-1 and 0-2 in the Big Six. In other games, Stanford in vades Oregon State, Washington State is at Idaho, San Jose State at Oregon, San Diego State at Fresno State and the San Diego Marines at the Uni versity of the Pacific. UCLA rates a six-point choice over Cal's Bears who may not have Roger Foster, their star tackle, off the injured list. The Bruins are expected to go with a backfield, led by quarterback Larry Zeno. which made sec ond-ranked Illinois scramble to win 18-12 last Friday. Stanford, although in the Big Six cellar with two losses in as many conference games, upset Notre Dame last week and is gunning to the same thing to Oregon State. The Beavers may have been softened up by a 31-fl pasting at Syracuse last Satur day but are four-point choices over the redmen. Washington State, blanked by classy Army 23-0 last Saturday, is a seven point choice to bounce back against fast-rising Idaho. Coach Dee Andros' Van dals thumped San Jose State, 28-12, on the same day and have won four out of six to spark a gridiron revival after years of being losers. Brothers Might Clash It could be brother against brother at Oregon if quarter back Bob Berry of the Ducks is allowed to see action against San Jose signal caller Ken Ber ry. But Bud has strained knee ligaments and likely will give way to start at least to sopho more Jack Soverign. Halfback Mel Renfro is not expected to play for Oregon. Fresno State can cinch the California Collegiate Athletic Association title Saturday night for the fifth time in six years by beating San Diego State. But an upset by the Aztecs could throw the race into a three-way tie. The University of the Pacific, no longer seeking football great ness, tries to win its first game in six starts when it hosts the San Diego Marines on the same night.

PHOENIX - It's top against bottom this week end in one Rogue League football collision. Phoenix Hign journeys to Lakeview for a 2 p.m. encounter on Saturday. The Pirates, rated No. 1 A-2 gridiron power in Oregon prep ranking polls, are undefeated leaders of the league. Lakeview one of two teams wmcn nas yet to score a 1963 victory in the circuit. Phoenix enters the skirmish as the heavy favprite but ex pects to run into an improved Honker crew. The Buccaneers have chalked up triumphs over four common rivals who have beaten Lakeview. These were Rogue River, St. Mary's, Eagle Point and Illinois Valley. Thfi Honkers have snown signs of gathering strength in their last two outings. Two weeks ago they fell to Illinois Valley just 12-o. bast ween ena Henley just squeezed by Lake view 7-6. Fenton. Granby All Afternoon battling this week is looked upon as advantageous to the Honkers. On the hobbled list for Ptioe- nix are Tackle Bob Fenton with a hairline fracture of the nnnd and Fullback Jon Granby who injured his ankle in the Illinois Valley game. Fenton's injury means duty both ways for capable Gary McGarity. There are dependa ble replacements, too for Gran by. For otfense Dennis Grennan moves to the old familiar full back spot and Dale Sauer takes over at right half where Gren nan has been the regular this Center and Linebacker Paul Dicderich. who missed the IV go last week because of flu and tonsilitis, is bacK witn tne squaa and likely will start at Lake- view. Ramon Mata filled in real well at center last Friday and no doubt will see service against the Honkers. Reserves To Play Phoenix Coach Jack Wood ward stated that a number of reserves who have been per forming well likely will see con siderable action. These include Rick Dorman, at defensive half back, Ed Mitchell at defensive guard, Charles Roberts at de fensive tackle and Dick Unruh at linebacker. It is hoped also to use Ken Hawkins at quarterback and Lex Hamilton at tailback. Woodward reported that Mike Graham is coming along as a placekicker and that he may be given an opportunity to kick ex tra points it we score any loucnaowns. On Wednesday the P i r a t e s had what was felt to be a real good defensive scrimmage for the first team and a fine offen sive scrimmage for the No team. The second crew ran the Pirates' own offense." LOOK mm? take L TRU-MiX H CONCRETE we know you'l be satisfied 53 248 E Concrete & Equipment Division of CSC . - neel Corporation) McAndrew.

Houston s defending Eastern titlists invade Boston's Fenway Park tonight for what every body recognizes as a "crucial" game with the Patriots. Hous ton s 5-3 record gives it a sin gle-game lead on Boston's 4-4 mark in the tight Eastern race. A Houston victory would al most end the race but a Bos ton win would create the wild est four-way scramble in the four-season history of the AFL. Ihe weekend co-feature sends Western Division leader San Diego against the Jets at New York Saturday night. The Chargers are six-point favor ites. Cannon Returns In Sunday's games, Buffalo at Denver was rated a tossup and Oakland was a six-point pick to down visiting Kansas City. Houston s Billy Cannon, the ace running back who has helped the Oilers to four wins and a tie in a six-game series history with Boston, was actl vated in time for tonight's game. Coach Pop Ivy said the former LSU star appeared ful ly recovered from a hamstring muscle injury. Cannon and veteran quarter back George Blanda were fac ing a Boston team that, leads the AFL in rushing and total defense and is second-ranked in passing defense. October 31- was the closing date of the gereral trout season for anglers to trp for trout un der the summer regulations.

S. 97, and all lands within one mile of the Rogue river from the mouth of Graves creek to Agness will be closed. THE ANGLER'S LOG The weatherman is promising a bit of rain on Saturday that may or may not raise the coastal rivers enough to bring in more of the fall salmon runs. All fishermen are advised to wear sun-glasses in order to make this prophecy come .true. Klamath River The guide from Happy Camp claims that the fishing is like nothing ne has seen in 20 years on the river. Limits of steelhead from 3 to 11 pounds are being taken by veteran fishermen, and the novices are laKing a :ew mou. Reports from local fishermen who have gone down vary no fish to a few. Some fish have been taken above Horn brook, but the pressure and the best reports still rome from Seiad to Happy Camp. Lures and flies are as productive as nightcrawlers, and sometimes seem to have the edge. The guide forecasts good fishing over the week end. Rogue River The game com mission reports that there are a few dark salmon still jump ing in tne cay, but the catch ing has been at a standstill for the past week. Also the fall steelhead run has gone upriver, with a vague report of some luck in the Mule creek ar -a. This is the same place where sev eral good catches of fall salmon wre taken last year. It seems a couple of thoughtful anglers went to Mule creek and tried a few cluster eggs with some success. This would be the time. Steelhead fishing in the Galice area has been fair to poor. Chetco River The latest r.- port Is that the fall salmon are l-n and beginning to move up beyo.-.d tidewater. Most of the catchinr has been In the tidal area up to Tiderock. Favorite baits have been ancnovles ancl herring. A few fish have been taken further uoriver on lures or cluster eggs. Fishing Is exoected to hold ud unless the predicted rain brings a sudden rise in tne river. Bag limit on tl Chetco is 2 fish per day. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER Duck hunters are finding it well worth their while to try for the ducks and geese around the Klamath Straits area. This is the kind of situation that keeps the fishing from becom ing too crowded. GOOD LUCK!
