Beavers Favored Tonight LONG BEACH. Calif. Hi' Thev weren't supposed to win their own Southern Division championship, and they're not favored against uregon state, out Southern Cali fornia's Trolans hoDe tn win thlr first Pacific Coast Conference ti tle since 1940 as they open a three game basketball series Friday night. . The Beavers of Oregon State are a team of. giants and they hold a statistical edge over SC. but the Trojans have been red hot in ine last few weeks and could upset toe dope. Much depends on whether the Trojans can maintain ball control, as they did in beating the strong UCLA team three eames out of four. Swede Halbrook. OSC's 7 foot 3 inch center, Is going to be hard K nanoie, ana he should control the tipoff. ...... Halbrook tops the scorers with an average of 21.9 points a game, and the best SC has to offer is Roy Irvln, foot 6 Inch center with a 13.2 average. But Irvln had been unusually effective lately and scored 56 points in the last two games against UCLA that decided the Southern Division title. Coach Slats GUI's Oregon State squad won 18 games and lost 8, while SC had a 16-11 mark. Their only mutual rival was Hawaii and the scores at Corvallls and Los Angeles were similar; Oregon State Is exuected to dom inate the backboards because of the players' heignt (they can start a . team averaging 6 feet 8 inch) but SC may excel in speed. OSC has a superior bench. Everything pointed to. UCLA winning the Southern Division championship, too, but the Trojans apparently didn't read the advance notices. The game is being played In the Long Beach City College gymnas ium, with a seating capacity of j.aoo, because SC a seats only 500. There will be another game Sat urday night and a third, if neces sary, Monday night. Game time Is 8:30. Consideration Is being given to telecasting the games Into Oregon. SCARES CITY LEAGUE W I.

OB-Jackie Robinson, trail blazer of the Negro race In organized base ball, said Friday he hoped to make this his last year In the game. The brilliant Brooklyn lnfielder who finds himself battling for a regular position for the first time since he's been with the Dodgeri, has several business deals pend ng next winter which, If consum mated, will make him independ ent of baseball for the rest of his life. They would also enable him to continue his work toward the advancement of the Negro race. "I'm not saying that this def initely will be my last year," Robinson said. "I'm merely say Ing I hone I can quit after this season. That depends on whether the things I have In mind will materialize."

Banks was hit on the back of the head by a pitched ball in an Intrasquad game at Mesa, Ariz., shortly after Baker apralned his right knee running out a single.

But the same odds give Paddy as good a chance as Carter had when he lifted the title from Ike Williams three years ago. In what little wagering there has been on this light, which hasn't stirred up much interest here abouts, Carter has been favored at odds ranging, 1-3 to .1-4 and he's a 7-5 choice to knock out the rugged, charging scrapper from Brooklyn. Jimmy was the 3-1 un derdog when he stopped Williams in 14 rounds to become champion. EIGHT TIMES Since tlicn Carter has fought for the title eight times, lost it once to Lauro Salas and won It back again, and has becomo a vastly Improved fighter. But he still can't draw a big crowd in his home town. The bout, starting at 10 p.m.. EST, will be broadcast (ABO) and telecast (NBC) locally and nation ally. ' . Carter Is a cool, careful sort of flnhtcr who doesn't get excited and often doesn't look spectacular. In his three title bouts last year be bombed Tommy Collins unmer cifully for four rounds and stopped George Araujo in 13 and Armand Savole in five. But he managed to look rather sour in a couple of nontltle fights. SEES WIN DeMarco disregards the odds and the obvious facts in predicting that he'll win tonight. His style of fight ing Is to put his head down and charge in, sometimes connecting with his skull Instead of his fists. And he thinks he oan keep it up for 15 rounds as easily as 10. "Carter is slow and I'll make him hustle," he said. "All I hope is that he tries to bomb me out with his right." Replied Jimmy: "I hope he comes in swinging like he says he intends to. I ll meet him with the right kind of punches." - DeMarco, four years younger than the 30-year-old Carter, appar ently reached his peak in 1950 and 1961, when he had only one defeat in 19 fights. His over-all record of 67-11-3 is slightly better than Carter's 65-16-8. Paddy has only seven knockouts to his credit, as compared to carter's 26. . Wreckers Unbeaten The Victory Lcogue completed two rounds of play last night 12 ganies-eand the Sixth St. Wreck ers had them all in the win column, 82-47 over Gun store last night. The second-place team, the Dc Molay Blues, hold a 9-3 record after a 41-18 romp over YMCA last night In the other game on the Falrview twin bill. Greg Schulze and Modesto Jim enez pumped In 24 and 23 points for the wreckers, while Ken Mar tin added 18 in the rout. The Wreckers held a 30-21 lead at halftlme and piled it on with 24 points in the third quarter, 28 in the fourth. Mike Hayden tallied 18 points tor the Blues as, the 'V made It close only . in the first quarter, scoring 12 of Its IB points. c GENERATOR REPAIR ANDERSON AUTO SERVICE 632 Walnut Phone 8166 Q3UPPLY Gun Trophy Up Sunday The Houger Trophy will be up for grabs tomorrow with tlireo Klamath Gun Clubbers having ' a tight two-leg hold on the hard ware.
