Oliver Will Return To Oregon
.Tex Oliver will return to Eugene to coach the University
tt Oregon grid eleven this fall. According to reports, Oliver is
getting out of the navy next month and is a cinch to return to
mentor the Webfoots.
Lon Stiner will guide the gridiron oestiny of Oregon Slate
i i-i,tmeAi k ffranHrinddv nf all north
ern division coaches this year now that Babe
Hollingbery is out at Washington State. Stiner
attended a football pow-wow at Spokane recent
ly in which northern division, Pacific Coast
conference schools instigated a number of new
rules that didn't make the headlines.
One regulation states that member schools
of the conference would be set back $1000 if
caught proselyting athletic prospects, but that s
onlv half of it. If a school is caught twice com
' mittlng the same unpardonable sin of making
It possible for a financially destitute youngster
to attend college, then the school is automatical
ly expelled from the conference. Now isn't that
the nutsi wnai are we gom k ,,.,
northwest a junior league for young women or an honest-to-sosh
football conference? ,
Here's another little gem the conference bigwigs thunk up.
Should a star high school athlete accidentally meet one of the
member coaches on the street, the coach must look the other way,
even though he might know him personally, else the coach be
txcused of influencing the boy In favor of his school. We assume
that a this self-same coach does address the lad as civility de
mands, that he will be required to commit hari-kari by confer
ence officials. We have heard of some unfair and unreasonable
rules in our day, but these tidbits lead the pack by 22 lengths.
Member coaches cannot so much as pass through a city in
which a prospect lives but what the coach in question must then
rec-ort to the grand-exalted commissioner exactly what he did
while passing through that said city and why he passed through
It in the first place! These rules are absolutely asinine and every
body must know that , they are, including the men that made
them. Why, then, do the people stand for them? The answer is
that they have nothing to say about it.
Oregon sports fans were overjoyed when it was learned that
; football would return to the northwest this fall, but with rules
-'such as these controlling the conference, everyone is more than
likelv to be disappointed. v. v. -
To get back to the coaching prospects. Phil Sorboe will head
Washington State and "Babe" Brown will mentor Idaho. J'ggJ,,
Dahlberg and his Montana Grizzlies have dropped out and Pest
Welch at Washington and Oliver at Oregon are holdovers. Whit
man and Willamette wiU not compete because of lack of material.
So that's the way things stand now. We're going to have foot
ball all right, but it will be football so bound by red tape and
regulations that the opposing players will be required to bow to
each other before coming up to the line of scrimmagel

peared assured of doing some
post-war battling with the U. S.

Joe Louis today on the strength
of his one-round knockout of

Nova, who had put together

two minutes. 47 seconds with
the hard-slugging New Yorker
when they put on their second
clash last night before a disap
pointing paid crowd of 7334 at

Nova Hurt
: During the .first minute of
tneir scheduled 10 -rounder,
Mauriello landed a terrific right
that opened a cut over Nova's
left eye while bruising that side
of his face. The Californian
then made a feeble effort to get
going, omy 10 siumDie and go
down on one knee for a nine-
count under a left hook to the
head.
After taking a heavy two-fist-
ea oattering about the head,
Nova came off the ropes with
his guard down and was met
ivith another bone-crushing
fight near the jaw that dropped
him face-down for the full
ipunt. Mauriello weighed 197,
iix pounds less than his hapless
rival, who was the victim of a
iix-roiind technical knockout de
rision in their first bout in New
fork about three years ago.

Were it not for a young lieu

Dykes Proud
Of 3rd-Place
Chicago Club
By JIMMY JORDAN
CHICAGO. June 26 tP) The
Chicago White Sox, who haven't
won an American league pen
nant since 1919, may not win an
other this year, but Manager
Jimmy Dykes says they're going
to make it plenty tough on the
other teams of the league before
next October.
Dykes was pretty proud of his
club as he came back home to
day for a two-week stand, after
winning 11 and losing four in
the last two weeks.
Pitching Good
"We've got good pitching and
our hitting Is better than fair,"
Dykes said as he prepared for
tomorrow's invasion of the Bos
ton Red Sox in a three-game
series in a fight for third place.
"We're not up there now, and
maybe we won't get up there.
But we'll cause some of them a
lot of trouble along the way."
Dykes will have his team at
home for two weeks and the
White Sox had more than ordi
nary success on their home
grounds tnis year.
