warn
- A NEWS STORY sometimes is
misleading.
The account of Oregon Tech's
loss to Humboldt last Friday night,
because of lack of space and lack
of detailed information from Ar
eata, Calif., merely said In straight
down-the-mlddle style uiat ureiecn
Guard Don Sutphin was ejected
from the game after mixing with
Humboldt uuara Kay juecnais.
Because Sutphin plays hard and
plays to win, he often finds him
self at odds with officials and close
to rhubarbs with opposing players.
But manv have got the opinion
that the high-scoring boy is hard
to handle.
COACH ART K1RRXAND has
supplied some details of the Hum
boldt fracas that clarifies the mat
ter. It was late In the game and Ore
tech was trailing, 61-65.
' On instructions from, the bench
the Oregon Tech players were nat
urally pressing to get the ball.
They closed It to 63-65. Just a
minute remained. Sutphin. along
with Mechals, went after a loose
' ball. Sutphin was all-out because
a two-pointer would have tied the
game.
' He collided with Mechals.
Mechals too a swing at Sutphin.
That started a rhubarb. .'
But. strangely enough. Mechals
was allowed to stay in the game.
But it was Mechals who threw the
Urst knuckles.
Sutphin was thrown out by the
boys in black and white 1
'-.' SUTPHIN should have ignored
. Mechals when the HumboMt eager
s started the beef. ' ;
But that's a stiff order.
The next night Sutphin led the
. Owls to a. 58-46 win with 17 points
after the Owls lost the first night
even though : Sutphin canned 19
points..
" At one time, Kirland said, four
Humboldt players, this time behind
in me score late m me game,
climbed Sutphin's frame. - '
Sutphin -tended to his knitting.'
;. I thought this explanation neces
f -eary- In, view- of what many sub
f scribers,:ean "read into -a story".

Ted May
Be Lost
To Bosox
BOSTON Ifi Ted Williams,
baseball's top salaried slugger, has
been recalled by the U .8. Marines
and. if physically fit, probably will
be lost to the Boston Red Sox until
he reaches the comparative old age
of 35.
The SIOO.OOO plus performer is
one of several hundred former Ma
rine flyers being called back- as
replacements for Korean veterans
due active service release, .
Reports from Marine headquar
ters in Washington were that Wil
liams, now 33. will report at near
by Squantum for a physical exam
ination on April 2.- If found fit. he i
wiu go on active duty on May 2
for at least 17 months. That would
take him through most of the com
ing American League season- and
for aU of 1953.
Williams phoned General Man
ager Joe cronin from his Florida
Everglades fishing retreat, saying
he would "go through all of the
spring training and I'll stay with
the club and await further orders."
Williams' chances of passing the
Marines' strict physical tests for
its flyers are considered dubious
in that service's local circles.
Ted fractured the head of the ra
dius bone in his left elbow during
the 1950 All-Star game and the re
sulting surgery has hampered that
arm's extension and mobility ever
since. He still requires the atten
tion of therapeutists.
Hereabouts, many recalled re
servists, especially flyers, have
been rejected for similar handi
caps.
