Dons Fall To Santa Barbara SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)-The West Coast Athletic Conference tournament was supposed to be all USF's show, but (lie title was up for grabs today. The four previous WCAC tour naments have always been spat tered with upsets, but It's doubt ful any ever matched Thursday night's 68-57 win by California of Santa Barbara over host USF. The Gauchos oulscored the suddenly cold Dons by a 26-7 margin in the final stanza (o come from behind for victory. Howie Sundberg and Tom Lee led the winners with 19 and 16, while Ollie Johnson had 15 for the Dons. In olhcr first-round action, it was San Jose State 68 Loyola 6:1, Santa Clara 82 Pepperdine 6!) and St. Mary's 68 University of Pacific 62. It will be Santa Clara -St. Mary's and Santa Barbara-San Jose Slate in semi-final games today. San Jose State's S. R. Satfold hit 14 against Loyola and hit the 10-foot jumper wilh nine min- ules to go that put the Spartans ahead in the see-saw struggle. Jim O'Kcefc had 14 for Loyola. Sanla Clara also made a strong comeback to win. It was 27-12 Pepperdine midway in the first half but then the Broncs' hotshot Russ Vrankovich found the range and by halftimc it was :i6-all. The Broncs dominat ed the second half. Vrankovich blistered the hoop for 28 points, best scoring burst of the first round. Ted Bridges and Roland Bolts each tossed in 17 for the losers. SI. Mary's triumph was its first after seven straight losses this year. Five Gaels hit in dou ble figures, while Bill Wilson led the Tigers with 20. The Broncs and Gaels have never lost a first-round contest in this tourney. Pepperdine and University of Pacific had never won one. Hut the big news was Sanla Barbara 8 dumping of tho Dons, picked by many experts as one of the nation's strongest quin- tels. They were just among the also rans here today. Vancouver Win Streak Ended By Seattle, 5-3 By United Press International Vancouver's climb up the Western Hockey League stand ings was at a halt today.

A capacity crowd of about 1,000 is expected to jam the Illinois Valley High School gym for the event. The winners of tonight's game will fight it out for the title in the second game Saturday night. The losers will meet for Ihe consolation final at 7 p.m. Saturday. The St. Mary's Crusaders drilled Monday, Tuesday and Thursday of this week in prepa ration for their clash with Phoe nix. Both St. Mary's (3-0) and Phoenix (5-0) have untarnished records. The Crusaders have been drilling on defense, both man to man and various types of zone, said Coach Dick Paup, in addition to condition work and rebounding. Paup plans to start John Bal- zer and either Ted Scott or Mike Soran at guards, Randy Corliss and Ron Roberts at for wards and Steve Cook at center.

Info;".ialion gathered on the winter ranges will determine what's in store for big game hunters during next fall's hunt ing seasons. It is here that game biologists seek out the animals, watcn mem as mcy go through the winter, study food supplies, keep a critical eye on animal condition, record mortality, sex and age, and tho number of animals observed on each range. Cold, snow, mud, wind or rain do not stop the surveys, for game agents must travel in all kinds of weather if the status of Oregon's big game Is to be determined. IIKRI) COMPOSITION The first phase of this annual inventory is herd composition to determine the ratio of males, females and youngsters in each herd. This work receives top priority beginning in late fall until midwinter on all ranges. Such studies give an accurate picture of the fawn or calf pro duction, and the number of buck deer or bull elk available for breeding and hunting pur poses. Year after year, most of the bucks killed during Ihe hunting seasons consist of forked horns or yearling bucks. If the sur veys indicate a good lawn crop hunters can expect a good buck crop next year. If Ihe fawn cron is down on any given range, hunters can expect a like de cline in the buck crop available Herd composition must be completed before buck deer or bull elk lose Ihcir ant tot s, iiy mid-January herd composition is no longer feasible on deer as bucks arc rapidly shedding their anllers. Game biologists have a liltle more leeway on elk as these majestic game ani mals retain their anllers for a longer period of time. Wilh some it is as late as mid-March or early April before the massive antlers arc shed and new growth begins. YEARLY CENSUS Herd composition does not complete the winter surveys About mid-January game agents begin Ihe tally of big gamo num- )ns on each winter range.

Eagle Point Coach Dale Bates may field an all-junior lineup when his team takes the floor against the Cougars of Illinois Valley. The starters, unless he changes his mind, would be Lon nie Mesloh, Wouten Leeuwen burgh, Russell Glasgow, Bob Corliss and Bob Colpitis. "Glasgow and Mesloh played well for us in the tournament at Lakeview." Bates explained He was especially pleased with Glasgow, who in his first varsity start scored eight points and was a standout on defense. The Eagles drilled Thursday night, stressing ball handling and timing. The team has an 0-6 record so far, with losses to Crater. Brookings twice. Lakeview, Douglas and Glide, but Bates says, "We think we're a lot better ball club than a lot of people realize."

As food sup plies are consumed danger is forgotten, senses auuea excepi the gnawing urge for food, and even this may become dulled in time. Under such conditions many animals will starve before spring, with fawns and year lings usually the first to go. Extreme cold will also take its toll, mainly of older animals unable to generate body heat from the meager food supplies to withstand the frigid tempera tures. RESULTS Winter surveys give an accu rate picture of population trends, numbers ot male animals in each herd, fawn or calf crop, food supplies, range conditions, and mortality, Such mtormaiion is used to determine the amount of big game expected for har vest during the following season.

(UPD Washington fullback Junior Cof fey, once consigned to a spec tator's role in the Rose Bowl game because of a foot frac ture, worked out in sweat clothes today and it appeared that ho may be able to play against Illinois New Year's Day. The 210-pound ball-carrier was fitted with a specially built shoe to support the tiny fracture near the lillle toe on his left foot. He experienced some pain when the shoe was laced but this was expected lo ease off, according lo the team physician. Later Coffey said, "It feels so good, it makes me want to laugh." No one on Ihe Washington slaff including Head Coach Jim Owens would say that Coffey would definitely play, but there was strong hope. lhc team physician, who ask ed that his name be withheld, said, "Anybody's guess is as anybody else's. We're just sil ling around here hoping. Every orthopedic man we've talked to says there's no reason why he cannot play. But we cannot def inilely say he will play." "We'll just have to wait and see what develops," Owens said. A cast stretching from Ihe Iocs lo the knee on Coffey's left leg was applied last Saturday after the fullback complained of foot pains. The cast was re moved Wednesday night. "Our doctors have determined Coffey's injury is a slight stress fracture," Owens said. "They wish to sec how the foot re sponds without a cast. They recommended limited exercise." Air Force, UNC Ready For Gator Bowl Saturday JACKSONVILLE, Fla.

Can Do Everything Hardin admits that Texas can do whatever it has to do to win a ball game, and that in cludes passing which is not sup posed to be Texas' cup of tea. The Longhorns tossed 28 passes in coming from behind to win 15-13 over Texas A&M on Thanksgiving Day. This is Ihe most number of passes thrown since Dat rell Royal was named head coach seven sea sons ago. Navy got a laste of what can happen when you can't control a ball control team in the Army game. The clock ran out with Army on Navy's two-yard line, preventing the biggest upset of the season. The Midshipmen can expect the same Ivne of oamn frm Texas hoid the ball and tear ! on mat yardage in small chunks. That's why Hardin feels the defense must improve for the all-important clash.

But in 1957, there was a fight in Wales in which Teddie Barker threw one punch at Bob Roberts and the referee stopped the fight immedi ately without a count, and ruled a TKO . . .

Parker Hall of Missis sippi . , . and Eric Tipton of Duke ... By the way, O'Brien, Goldberg and Hall all became pro football stars after their college days, and Tipton became a major league baseball player. One of the most amazing teams in football history was the school the immortal Jim Thorpe played for Car lisle . . . Here are some facts about Carlisle I bet you didn't know ... It was, first of all, NOT a college, but rather more of an industrial high school to train Indians, yet Carlisle played the biggest and best college teams and regularly beat them . . . There were never more than 250 boys over 16 at the school! . . . And most of the boys had never plaved football be fore coming there ... To make it even tougher for Carlisle, they seldom played home games . . . Carlisle fielded teams only between 1893 and 1917 when the school was closed, but its name will live on as long as football is played. Basketball fant knew this time of year as the Holiday Tournament time. The Far West Classic gets played this weekend with OSU the favorite to repeat ai champs. The Beavers have won the clastic every year since it began (1956). The Phoenii Pirates and St. Mary's Cru saders both art undefeated thus far this year.
