Wet Weather Could Hurt Oregon Ducks By GOI ON RICE POr.-JIND (UPI) North west football teams usually con sider the rain an ally when playing intersectional contests, but day's C. "in-Idniana game is an exception. The Weather Bureau s predic tion of showers over the week end is about as popular as an outbreak of measles in the Ore gon camp, where hopes for a victory rest largely on Bob Ber ry, the nation's ninth leading passer. Berry, despite a knee injury which caused him to miss parts of two games, has completed 70 of 125 passes for 1,212 yards and 11 touchdowns so far this sea son. Two of Oreg-a's three losses came in the games in which Berry was hurt. He still won't be able to run well Saturday, but his aim is the important ining. Adding to the Ducks' hopes for an aerial victory is the fact that 13 of the 18 touchdowns In diana has given up this year have come through the air. Renfro To Play A dry field also would help Oregon's speedy backs, includ ing A "-American Mel Renfro, a-.other injury victim. He suf fered a cracked rib against Washington three weeks ago, but showed rapid improvement in workouts this week. Oregon also was cheered Thursd y by the news that Larry Hill, the other regular halfback, will be available for limited offensive duty. He sul fered a partial shoulder disloca te j two weeks ago and was thought to be out for the season. Indiana, rated a slight u..Jei- dog by the oddsmakers, rests its" hopes for a fourth consecu tive victory on fullback Tom Nowatzke, a 220-pound blaster o demolished Oregon State 20-15 last week with a touch down, two field goals and a pass interception. Oregon has a 5-3 mark (or the season, but has never beaten a Big 10 team in seven previous tries. About 20,000 are expected at Multnomah Stadium, but good weather and the lure of Renfro, Berry and Nowatzke could raise that to 25,000.

Small College Football Slate Will Conclude By United Press International The small college football sea son ends in Oregon Saturday for everyone except possibly Lewis and Clark. The Pioneers, champions of the Northwest Confen..ce, have finished an 8-0 season and are awaiting a possible invitation to the NAIA playoffs.

Lewis and Clark's Mickey Hergert has clinched the North west Conference rushing and scoring titles. The senior haubacK has gain ed 872 yards in 159 carries for a 5.S average. His nearest com petitor is Whitman's Bill Hilger, who has also completed his sea son with 537 yards in 155 car ries. Hergert's 17 touchdowns give him the scoring title with 102 points.

Goose Tatum's Roadkings Will Perform at CP OSU, Southern Cal Renew Grid Rivalry UPI Sports Writer LOS ANGELES (UPI) - Coach Tommy Prothro's Ore gon State team of "spoilers" meets the University of South ern California tonight for the first time in three years in the renewal of an old football rivalry. The last time the Beavers and Trojans clashed was in the opening game of the 1960 sea son and John McKay's deDut as head coach for Southern Cali fornia fell flat under a 14-0 defeat. Hatcheries Will Have Busy Time PORTLAND - The next two months will be a busy time at game commission fish hatch eries as October storms brought on intense activity of fall spawn ing eastern brook trout,s rain bows, Atlantic salmon, chinooks and kokanee. Chris Jensen, chief of hatch ery production for the game commission, reported that more than 3,700,000 eastern brook trout eggs are already in the hatching trays at r ail Kiver south of Bend, with another 300, 000 to go to reach production quotas. Spawning activities are centered at the commission's egg-taking station at East lake. Fall spawning rainbows at Oak Springs hatchery on the Deschutes near Maupin are pro ducing eggs in good numbers with 840,000 already on hand. Brood rainbows here are ex pected to produce about 2,000,- 000 eggs before the egg-take is complete. Atlantic Salmon Of interest to anglers is the expected Atlantic salmon egg take at the Wizard Falls hatch ery on the Metolius. Although only 26 females out of 250 brood fish held matured to produce eggs, these fish may produce 80,000 eggs. About 21,000 eggs are already under incubation Soring Chinook egg-take at the Rock Creek hatchery on the North Umpaua was completed by mid-October, with a quota of more than 238,000 eggs. Disappointing to the commis sion was the failure of the egg take from the large run of fish in tributaries of Detroit reser voir. Just as the egg-take got under way, Jensen reported, high and muddy water caused the fish to disperse, and only few fish were able to Be traDDcd. About 8,000 eggs were taken from this source, an oi very high quality. The egg take at game com mission hatcheries will continue through the fall and winter and well into the spring months. CENTRAL POINT - A .fa mous basketball personality, Reece (Goose) Tatum, ageless Clown Prince of the Court, Is coming to town. He s bringing his world-wide barnstorming team, the Harlem Roadkings to the Crater High gym on Wednesday, Nov. 27 when they go against another Drofessional guintet, the Origi nal New York Renaissance. Game time is 8 p. m. Anv time Goose Tatum goes on the floor, fans know they are in for a round of fun and laughter. He is the Emmett Kelly of basketball, the king of the case clowns so 10 speax. But the Goose doesn't have to wear a clown's mask. He does his entertaining with basketball magic. He's just as apt to shoot a goal for his opponents as he is to make one for his own team, provided the score isn't too close. And he's liable to be seated among the spectators at one time or another. The fans, down through the years, have never been surprised at any thing the Golden Goose may do on the basketball floor. 25 Million Watch And they like it. They like it so well that Goose Tatum's at tendance record may never be surnassed bv anv other basket ball player. In his more than 20-years of barnstorming, more than 25 million fans nave paid to see him penorm nis amies. And he is still drawing crowds. The six-foot, two-inch Tatum, a gangly fellow with the longest arm (84 inches) in basketball, joined the Harlem Globetrot ters for one season just before the war. After entering service, he played with the great Lin coln, Neb. Air Force Base Team which won the national cham pionship. , . . After the war, Tatum rejoined the Globetrotters and became known as the "Clown Prince of Basketball". Touring the world he became as famous in Tokyo as he was in Topeka. Five years isn Tatum formed his own team, the Harlem Roadkings. With him now is his former Globetrotter sidekick, Chuck Taylor, as well as Ramon Wilk inson, and others. And playing by his side, Tatum now has his own son, 22-year-old Reece Tatum, Jr., playing with his Harlem Roadkings. ine young ster his picked up many of his dad's tricks and is a show in himself. The two together are a riot, fans agree. Peralta Choice Over Thornton NEW YORK (UPD-Grcgorio Peralta of Argentina and Wayne Thornton of Fresno, Calif., fight tonight at Madison Square Crden for a possible shot at the world light heavy weight crown. On the basis of their respec tive non-title showings against champion Willie Pastrano this year, Peralta is favored at 11-6 to beat Thornton in their na tionally televised 10-rounder for his 26th straight victory. Handsome, I' :k-haired Pe ralta, 28, is heavyweight cham pion of Argentina and ranked T'h among world heavyweight contenders; but both he and his handlers claim he can pare down to the light heavyweight, 175-pound limit with ease for a title shot. Gregorio gave champion Pas trano perhaps U.a worst beating of his career on Sept. 20 in a non-title 10-rounder at Miami Beach, where the South Ameri can made his United States de but. In Peralta's second United States fight tonight, he seeks nis 40tn victory and 12th knock out in 41 bouts. He says he lost only his first bout on a knock out by Mauro Mina of Peru. Thornton s 29-3-1 record in cludes 18 knockouts. He, too, was stopped on.j. Deer Showing Up At Lower Elevations PORTLAND (UPI) - The weekly hunting report issued by the Oregon State uame com mission: Northwest: Elk and waterfowl hunting poor throughout the Willamette Valley-Lane County area. Prospects are fair this weekend for deer on lands ad jacent to agricultural areas. Southwest: Deer are begin- n na to appear at lower eleva tions but elk remain holed up at higher elevations. Pheasant hunting has been poor to tair. Since that meeting, both teams reached success peaks. The Trojans last year emerged as the national champions while Oregon State with the sensa tional Terry Baker guiding it climaxed the successful season with a 6-0 victory over Villa nova in the Liberty Bowl. This year, going into tonight's clash at the Coliseum, the Bea vers and Trojans own identical 5-3 records. It is the next to last game for both teams who clash with traditional rivals the following week and the success of the season hinges for both on their final two games. Oregon State has been an in dependent team since the old Pacific Coast Conference folded and the Beavers would wel come rejoining their former league rivals in the Athletic Association of Western Univer sities if invited. The Beavers, a result, are anxious to make a good showing tonight. And despite Southern Califor nia being favored by two touch downs, Oregon State has the material of which upsets are fashioned. Their chief weapon is one of the best passing at tacks in the West. Gordon Queen has been an able replacement for the grad uated Terry Baker and in Vern Burke the Beavers have one of the great pass receivers in the nation who last year set nu merous collegiate records as a receiver. In addition, Prothro has a bevy of speedy backs that in clude LeRoy Whittle, Dan Es- pann, Tim usmer and Booker Washington. Southern California has two outstanding running backs in Mike Garrett and Willie Brown who together were responsible for the win over Stanford.
