JUSTIN SMITH
Golf Champion
Fall Golf
Title Won
By Smith
Justin Smith was winner in
the fall handicap golf tourney
at Rogue Valley Country club.
He had a 206 score to take
the honors by seven strokes.
Second place was taken by
Ivan Harrington with 213. Other
low scores included Jim Quincy
and John Landers, each 214,
and Ken Petersen 215. Landers
was 1962 winner.
There were 44 entries.
Smith's 66 net for one of the
three 18-hole rounds was the
lowest of the tourney. The one
handicapper had a 67 gross for
the round.
The holiday handicap, a part'
nership event, is next on slate
for men at RVCC. Thirty-five
teams already are signed for
the popular Dec. to March
event.
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. Game time is 2
p.m.

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.
Herb Score

Draft List
NEW YORK (UPI) - Seven
years ago, the Boston Red Sox
