Garrett Back Of The Week ART KIRKLAND . .minus a quarterback ranks posed a -real problem for the Tech coaching staff, drilling the squad now for the trip to Portland end & ' Saturday night grid date with the Portland State Vikings. Klrkland Indicated Larry Oatney ef Drain has the Inside track but be "was still looking." The backfleld blues on the mile high campus were further com plicated when Danny Mahoney quit the squad this week. PROMISE The ex-Sacred Heart lad has been Improving rapidly this season and has shown promtBe. He gave no reasons for his leaving the squad. Klrkland was toying with the Idea of switching end tyaverne Clmfl to the fullback position and moving Larry Jeter to halfback where Odle Canada has not been living up to expectations. But the big problem now 1s to find a quarterback for the Portland (Tame, the Owls' last Oregon Colle giate Conference encounter.

Stanford T-quarterback whose spectacular passing to an upset win over strong UCLA last week earned him The Associated Press Back of the Week rating, would like to have a crack at pro fessional football. Off last week's performance, when Bob completed 18 of 27 pass es for ton yards, with 13 of 17 com intr in three touchdown drives, it looks as though he could make the grade in the pro draft next winter. One thing worries the 21-ycar- old. 190-pound senior. , .Uncle Sam may drait him before the pros. Bob has been a member of the Stnnford Air Force ROTC unit. Being named Back of the Week had its greatest satisfaction for Garrett in that it proved he wasn't washed out when he was Injured near the end of last season. Many had predicted bis grid career was over then. But he underwent surgery for a shoulder separation on his left side and to have bone chips removed from his right passing arm. The results were demonstrated Satur day when he literally passed the favored UCLA team silly, winning 21-20. Track Heads Go To Court LAS VEGAS. Nev.

Dandoy, who received a head in jury in the Washington game, sat out the Oregon State atiair last Saturday but got back into action Tuesday. He looked good in the drill on offense. Coach Jess Hill switched signals and said Mario Da Re would start in the line. Hill took a second look at the Oregon State game movies and reinstated Da Re to first string status. Nelson Back With Webfoots EUGENE, Ore. It) Fully re covered from a leg Injury that has kept him out of action for three weeks, guard Jerry Nelson rejoined Ihe Oregon Ducks Tuesday and took part in a fullscnle offensive scrimmage. Coach Len Casanova said Nel son's return brings the Ducks to full strength at the guard posi tion for the first time this season. Oregon will play San Jose State here next Saturday. By MURRAY ROSE NEW YORK A'l Carl (Bobo) Olson, the hustling Hawaiian lrom San Francisco, today held firmly as the 11-5 favorite to whip Eng land's moody Randy Turpin in their 15-round middleweight title fight at Madison Square Garden tonight. Although his strange training methods have been as unorthodox as his awkward fighting style, the 25-year-old British Negro said flat ly, "I'll prove I was right. I'll win and bring back the champion- snip to England. Olson, poker-faced and quiet, said calmly as usual, "I'll take the title." Then he left the rest of the talking, as usual, to Manager oia i-'ianeny. PICKS OLSON' "Olson will win," was the stud ied comment of Hav Robinson. who fought them both twice. The two will battle for the crown the great Sugar Ray abdicated nine months ago. "Olson is aggressive and very busy," said Robinson. "He gives you no room and he thinks fast. Turpin can't go back. I found that oui. uison win keep coming." Even the visiting British writers and London promoter Jack Solom ons have soured on their strong colorbearer. DISAPPROVE "I don't approve the way Turpin has trained," said Solomons. "He should have boxed more. His tim ing is off. If it goes 15 rounds Olson will win." Turpin hasn't boxed since last Thursday. Despite Turpin's peculiar tactics Giants Win Fourth, 8-1 SAPPORO. Hokkaido. Japan (h The New York Giants shellacked their Tokyo baseball namesakes 8-1 Wednesday in a steady drizzle before an overflow crowd o 20,000. It was the fourth straight win for the New Yorkers BROADCAST Tonight's Bobo Olson-Randy Turpin middleweight fight for the world's title will be aired over CBS-KFLW at 7 o'clock. A blow-by-blow account from ring side will be carried. and the big odds against him, the Briton's name is still magic at the box office. The International Boxing Club opened its wiudows today with more than $110,000 in the till. IBC Managing Director Harry Markson said the scrap will lure about 17, 000 fans and about $175,000. Radio television receipts will add another $60,000 to the pot. Each fighter will collect 30 per cent or about $57, 000. BLACKOUT The bout will be broadcast and telecast coast to coast bv CBS. starting at 10 p.m., EST. New York, and a 75-mile area around head- ihe metropolis, will be blacked out oi me teiecasi. Off their performances against Robinson and their over-all records Turpin should be no worse than even money. But he can't punch with his record tonight. He beat Robinson once and was stopped in 10 rounds Sept. 12, 1951. He has won eight straight since the Rob ison defeat and his record is 49-3-1 with 33 knockouts. Olson, 25 like Turpin, has won 10 in a row since he dropped a close 15-rounder to Sugar Ray in San Francisco March 13, 1952. In their first clash, Robinson stopped Bobo in 12 rounds in '50. DIFFERENCE The major difference is in their attitudes. Olson is a steady, if not brilliant, fighter. No bright lights for this father of four. The bald ish, slope - shouldered, one-time bouncer, has a world of stamina, boxes well, takes a good punch, and can deal out punishment even if he lacks a power punch. Turpin has a deceptively awk ward style in which he lunges with his punches and slips counters with a backward motion of his head. He has remarkably fast reflexes and can get away with his daring methods.
