Eugene lost their season open- er to Corvallls last Friday night bv a 14-9 margin, but the Spar tans are reportedly seeking dis trict honors and said to be a tough foe. Eugene has always produced a grid power each year and since their high school system joined forces into one cpntral school, they have been fielding top athletic squads. Over the period of time that the Pels and the Axemen of Eugene have been tangling on the loot ball field, the purple and white from the shadow of the University of Oregon's Hayward Field, has its own and then some. The KlBinath-Eugene series lac cording to H-N records! started in 1M4 and since that time 13 games have been played making the ser ies one the longest In Klamath foot ball history. Eugene won the open' er from the Pels 19-6 and In the last meeting Klamath Union came out with a 26-19 triumph in 1994 The record of the two schools up to this year's game finds the Pels with a 5-7-1 record giving Eugene a two game edge in the win col umn. Results of the Klamath contests against Eugene since 1934 are as follows: Klam.

Like the others who got a free pass into the second round, Tui- nesa was thankful that he had Monday off after the first round had eliminated such name players as former champions Charlt-y Coe and Dick Chapman, North-South amateur king Don Bltsplingholf. and Billy Joe Patton. VETERAN In addition to the Swecncy-Tur-nesa match, other second lound pairings had Jake Howard Jr., a 19 year old University 'of Georgia student froim Atlanta who upset Coe 2 and 1 In the first round, facing veteran Chick Evans, an other two - time winner ol the title.

Wis. lUPl Lisle Biackbourn starts his second sea son as coach of the . Green Bay Packers with a group of eager rookies holding the key to success or failure. The Packers started the 1954 season with high hopes, but Inabil ity to win the close ones landed the club in fifth lace in the National Football League's Western Division at the finish with a 4-8 record. Green Bay's chances to Improve on that record this year depend to a discouraging degree on new comers. Tile attack last year was buiU almost entirely around quar terback Tobin Rote and ends Billy Howton and Max McGee. When that aerial combination failed, the Packers lost. CANDIDATES This year McGee has been lost to the armed forces and Black- bourn Is still looking for a number one left end. The top candidates are rookies Jim Jennings of Mis souri and Bob Peringer of Wash ington Slate, with second year man Gary Knafelc also In conten tion. But none of the prospects has looked good enough in pie-season exhibitions to take his place along side Howton, one of the best pass catchers In the league when the opposition can't double - team him. The Packers also need a top re serve quarterback, and they may have found one in an unlikely place Prairie View (Tex.) A&M. Charlie Bracklna. who passed kicked and carried the ball to set a flock of records at Prairie View, has taken the switch to pro ball in stride and should stick as Role's understudy. DEFENSE The Packers' defense, already one of the best In the league, has been strengthened considerably with the addition of rookie guard Tom Bettis ol Purdue, Green Bay's first draft choice. George Timberlake of Southern California and Hank Bullough of Michigan State also have shown promise of sticking at guard. Rookie halfback Doyle Nix of Southern Methodist has looked good on defense, and probably will team up with Val Joe Walker, who ranks as one of the top pass de fenders in the circuit. Biackbourn has been rebuilding for the past two years and said he did not expect to win a cham pionship "until we have cham pionship caliber men on the club." MOOSE MA'S W 1.

On the personal side, the Indians are fed up wito the increasing needling they have been subjected to from the seventh place Sen ators, who have beaten them 12 out of 10 games this year.

The Indians, who lead the American League by 1 games, are con vinced they can eliminate the last major obstacle in their road to the pennant by capturing at least two games of the three game series which opens with a twi - night doublcheader at Griffith Stadium tonight.

The Yankees, a game and a half off the pace and one game down in the all important "lost column" have troubles of their own.

Casey Stengel is sending his rleht handed fast-baller Bob Tur ley to the mound against Detroit today while Bucky Harris of the Tigers has given the nod to Bob Miller, a 20-year-old bonus hurler who has just returned to Detroit after compiling an 8-2 record with Augusta of the Sally League.
