THERE'S MORE to the most re
sent chapter of the Don Sutphin
Story as unravelled in Monday's
Oregon Collegiate Conference
meeting In Portland than is told In
the Associated Press news story of
the confab.
To get to the core of the story
first, Don Sutphin CAN PLAY
against conference opponents as a
member of the Vanport team,
BUT HE PROBABLY WONT.
It's a matter of ethics.
HERE'S THE 'background brief
ly: Sutphin was dismissed from the
Oregon Tc h cagecuad. ', '
He transferred to 'Vanport and
Viking Coach Arba Ager welcomed
him with open arms because the
lad knows how to make points.
But the OCC, in meeting Mon
day, ruled that "students at Ore
gon Collegiate Conference schools
will not be permitted to compete
in the same sport at two different
schools during one season."
Technically, this ruling can't
touch Sutphin because the confer
ence stipulated that the new law
is not retroactive.
If they bad made it retroactive
Jt would have appeared to be
aimed at one player, mainly Sut
phin, and the. conference fathers
naturally figure that this "wouldn't
be cricket."
TWO MEMBERS of the confer-,
nee, Oregon Tech and Oregon
College, naturally felt very strong
ly about the matter.
Sutphin played with Oregon Tech
against Oregon College and natur
ally his Information about the
Wolves would be very valuable to
Vanport, i
The same thing, of aourse,. goes'
for Oregon Tech.
Dr. Steven Epler, director of
Vanport, hinted quite strongly at
the meeting that Sutphin would not
fee used in conference games, but
would be employed in non-league
games.
Epler's reasoning, of course, was
based on ethics and met the full
approval of the league's fathers
(Director Winston Purvine was
Oretech's official representative).
PURVINB described the Sutphin
affair as the "first explosive mat
ter to come before the conference."
Basically, the ruling was insti
tuted by the four-team league to
establish a definite yardstick in
any future similar cases.
Even Ager, who had the Welcome
mat out for Sutphin like he would
for an ailing millionaire uncle,
"saw the ethical light" before the
meeting was over. .
To Ager, Sutphin probably looked
ven more inviting after Vanport
was dumped Saturday night by
Oregon College.
That gave the Monmouth five a
lie with Vanport for the league I
lead. Oretech, close behind, is stil
very solidly in the race.
Only Eastern Oregon would ap
pear .to be on the outside looking
in with no wins in four starts. It
would take a herculean effort to
put the Mountaineers back in the
thick of things with the OCC race
a third gone.
TLL SETTLE for Purvine's de
scription of the defense Oregon
Tech used to stop Eastern Oregon
in last weekend's series.
Remember, EOCE had averaged
somewhere in the neighborhood of
65 points per game up to its run
in with the Owls. .
The' Mountaineers averaged 49-
rper in the two-game clash here.
Oregon Tech's defense was a
combination of zone and man-toman.
It frustrated Eastern Ore
gon's attack rather emphatically.
Purvine calls it the "organized
contusion" aeiense.

YOUR WRITER is always will
ing to extend an apology wnen an
apology is in order.
And Paul Patrick certainly .has
one coming.
I'll share the blame with the
Pelican Wrestling Coach Dutch Si'
mons and charge it to a Dossi-
ble misunderstanding and a flare
for the dramatic.
Simons intimated to me that Pat
rick, ex-Springfield High School
wrestler now attending Oregon
Tech, said that he thought he
could beat Witte. . -
Witte, as a Klamath Union High
School matman. won the state men
wrestling title In the heavyweight
division two years riming.
Both times he beat Patrick for
the title.' ''
. It was a good angle and I lost
no time In building it up.
But I ve smce learned that the
situation was somewhat exagger
ated.. At least Patrick was some
what miffed when he read in the
paper that he-challenged Witte,
I've learned since that Patrick
consented to the match only after
much coaxing.
Figuring that no wrestler on the
current Pelican squad would be
any match for Witte, KUHS offi
cials asked Patrick to help out by
meeting Witte in an exhlbitfon
match.
Patrick hasn't been working out
of late and probably wasn't in
shape to meet the strong, well-conditioned
Witte.
Even In shape and I think Pat
rick will agree with this Patrick
may never see the day he can
whip the ex-Pelican boy on the
mat.

WASHINGTON HH Harrv Mat-
thews, a leading light heavvweluht
contender, Thursday was under
congressional pressure to sign up
for a title fight with Champion
Joey Maxim.
But Matthew's manager said in
Seattle they are after bigger game
now xieavyweignt unnmpion Joe
Walcott. .
Sen. Cain R.-Wsh. said
Wednesday night that unless Mat
thews accepts a "generous" Inter
national Boxing Club offer to fight
Maxim, he (.Cain) may withdraw
his Senation resolution that was
frankly designed to force the
match.
RESOLUTION
Cain explained that when he and
Sen. Welker iR.-Idaho) introduced
the unusual resolution last year
they honestly felt the IBC was dis
refusing to give him a chance at
the title.
me resolution urged an investi
gation of IBC as a monopoly "for
refusing legitimate challengers an
opportunity to fight." It is one of
the rare cases in which boxing was
put on the mat by Congress for
failure to give logical contenders
a chance at a title.
GENEROUS
Cain told a hastily-called ring
side news conference at a local
fight arena that IBC has made
Matthews a generous offer, but that
the Pacific Northwest fighter's
manager. Jack Hurley thanked the
senators "for their interest in Ha
ry's career" but said his big goal
now is a match with Heavyweight
Champion Walcott.
Hurley had said earlier that such
a fight .would be a pretty good bet,
and that it would be a champion
ship bout.
Cain's announcement was in the
form of a release of a telegram he
had sent Sports Editor Royal
Brougham of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.
