The Chiefs, meantime, muffed another chance to gain on the Emeralds as they dropped a 6-4 decision to Salem, their third loss in a row.

Taylor and the T were replaced In February by Prothro, who was Red Sanders' No. 1 assistant at UCLA and took part in master minding the Bruins to a 61-0 romp over OSC last year for the worst defeat in Corvallia annals. NO MIRACLES Prothro is keeping mum on what he expects to accomplish since crossing to the other side of the field but a spokesman lor ine am lettc department says, "We're op timistic. OSC should be a little stronger this fall and consider ably stronger next year. Every one knows Tommy will do the Job but nobody expects miracles of him in one year. The general feeling Is that the single wing fits the material bet ter, even If It Is brand new to the returning contingent which includes 26 lettermen. One basic change will send Ray Westfall, last years sophomore quarterback, Into the tailback spot and Prothro thinks the team will be strong there. Dick Mason, who led OSC In ground gaining last year, is to be spotted at wing back. The Beavers look strongest at the tackles, despite the departure of Ron Ashbachcr. John Wltte, letterman, is rejoining the team oftcr two years in the service. He will handle the Job along with Howard Buettgenach, anomer reg ular. Bob Rlggcrt, who played a lot of ball at guard, also will be back. EASIER SCHEDULE Prothro's biggest worry up front is at center. And at the ends. He has to find replacements on the wings for Laird Brattaln and Wed Edlger who are gone. Joe Francis, a tailback, heads a solid group of sophomores and is expected to give Westfall a tough argument for the Job. Sam Wesley, another second year man. also could give the veteran Mason some trouble at wlngback. The schedule seems easier with such brutal Intersectlonal foes as Minnesota and Nebraska not slat ed this season. The Beavers have an all conference calendar with the exception of Brlgham Young where they open Sept. 17. The schedule: Sept. 17 Brlgham Young. Sept. 24 Stanford at Portland. Oct. 7 at UCLA.

A defeat would be a serious set back for the fantastically unortho dox young flailer from Far Rock away, N. V., who Is gunning lor a title shot next year. However, 23-year-old Jackson is favored at 8-5 to beat 34 -year-old Charles again. In their previous bout At Syracuse, N. Y., on Aug. 3, Tommy swarmed all over ancient Ezzard and won an upset unani mous decision. Should fifth-ranking Charles suf fer his third defeat of 1955 tonight, he'll probably give up hopes of re capturing the crown and hang up his gloves. He's already had three chances to regain it one against Jersey Joe Walcott and two against Rocky Marciano. Ezzard was so desperately con fident of turning the tables on lanky Jackson tonight that he guar anteed him $10,000 for the rematch. Cincinnati Ez wil take the total purses for both fighters $8,000 from TVradio and 55 per cent, of the not gate. Then he will pay ten grand to Jackson. It will be Tommy's largest remuneration. Anything that's left after the guarantee will be Charles' pay for the night. BATTING Ted Kluszewskl.

VP A 114-day ban on boxing In Pennsyl vania was lifted today when Gov. George M. Leader signed a new boxing code into law. Leader's signature was the signal for the Kooney-McGinley Boxing Club in Pittsburgh to dust off plans for a Bob Baker-Bob Satter field heavyweight bout late next month. The bout apparently would mark the first test of a provision of the new code that a co-promoter t In ternational Boxing Club must take out a permit to participate in a bout. A permit now is needed for every bout. CONFABS The 1BC was said to have given the provision full approval after confabs In Scranton and Philadel phia with members of the three man State Athletic Commission. Commission Chairman James G. (Sleepy Jim) Crowley and Com missioners Alfred M. Klein and Paul G. Sullivan were among box ing figures who witnessed Lead er's signing of the "clean boxing" code. The code, planned for sometime by the new commission, was speeded to completion alter the governor imposed the boxiner ban In the wake of the Harold Johnson- Julio Medcros fiasco in Philadel phia last May. Johnson, alcgedly drugged before the bout, collapsed at the end of the second round. CLEAN BOXING A spokesman for the governor said the code will arm the com mission with the "necessary tools" to make boxing a clean sport "rather than a crooked business." The code calls for the finger printing of all applicants for li censes and strict standards for the "safety, health and welfare" of fighters and permits the boxing commission to suspend any fighter, manager, promoter or handler without a hearing. The governor said an amend ment prohibiting a matchmaker from having a financial interest in a boxer would be added later.

Equipment will be issued offi cially Wednesday, designated us press day at most schools, and there'll certainly be close to 600 hopefuls out on practice fields from Los Angeles to Seattle. The pre-season word Is tnat Coach Henry (Red) Sanders Is set to repeat as conlerence champion at UCLA and take the Rose Bowl ride which he was unable to en joy last year because the PCC Big Ten pact bars successive ap pearances there. Sanders, despite 21 lettermen returning from last year's unbeat en squad and two more exper ienced hands from previous years, has said he thinks differently. He has labeled Stanford and Southern Cal as tougher than his boys and points to a tough schedule. Top notchers at UCLA include fullback Bob Davenport, guard Hardlman Cureton and end Rom mie Loudd, to say nothing of the celebrated quarterback candidate Ronnie Knox. Sanders could field a completely veteran first string with another experienced team in reserve. Jess Hill Is pretty well equipped with veterans at USC, too, with 25 slated to report Thursday and some of them listed as big enough for two. Hill could, for example, start a line averaging over 220 pounds. Rated best of the veteran backs is Jon Arnett, talented 185 pound tailback. The Stanfords boast 22 letter men and Coach Chuck Taylor hopes the depth will provide him with one of the best Indian squads he's had in years. Two veterans, Johnny Brodte and Jerry Gustaf son, will battle for the quarterback spot they shared a year ago, with conference rushing champion Bill Tarr counted on to pick up where he left off. A sophomore, 181-pound Lou Valll from San Jose, brings a gleam into Taylor's eyes. A new coach and 26 lettermen, most of any school In the confer ence, are stirring optimism at Ore gon State. Tommy Prothro has taken over the Beaver helm from Kip Taylor. Prothro has indicated he puts scant weight on whether a candidate has won a letter and has proven he means that by not even listing six of his veterans on his preliminary three-deep roster. John Witte, a 240-pound tackle, and Ray Westfall, 195 pound halfback, are listed as out standing prospects. Twenty-five lettermen are includ ed on a list of 65 candidates in vited back at Washington by Coach Johnny Cherberg. The squad is bigger than the one which wound up at 2-8 last fall and faster. A brisk fight for the quarterback role I Is expected between Steve Roake. I a transplanted end; veteran sandy Lederman and Jerry Redmond, a 1953 emblem man. The word out of Washington State is that the Cougars are prime darkhorse candidates. Coach Al Kircher, starting his fourth sea son, has 21 lettermen. The Cou gars, though, have a transconti nental schedule which could be Frosty Life Is brewed into Rainier, not added to it. Because of this, the prized taste-tingle doesn't get lost, the snowy foam stands up, the sparkle lasts the whole glass through. Good. ruinous. The durability of fullback Bob Miller Is another worry. A pair of good guards, Tom Cunnari and Vaughun Hitchcock, are ex pected 'to provide plenty of strength in the middle of a vet eran line.
