Newspaper Page TextWEDNESDAY. OCTOBER 12. 1955 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THIRTEEN 3 Oosterbaan Named Week's Mentor By UP ANN ARBOR, Mich. (UP) -Theirs was a frustration ol many years. , Even with an authentic reputa tion as a national football power, there was ona team they couldn't beat. Canadian Pros Have Problems " CALGAHY tfl Trouble rocked ... Canadian pro football Wednesday the Calgary Stampeders are sure " they lost a came because a play- er tipped off Uie opposition, and ' the Ottawa Rough Riders are ,'. shaking up their roster after fin ing 2u players $200 each for suo- . par pertormances. The Stampeders, who Tuesday fired guard Dean Bandicra after ) accusing him of revealing their : plays to the Winnipeg Blue Bomu- ers. were reported considering t request to Western Interprovincial Football Union officials for a re- ) play of last Saturday's game. The .- Bo-r.bava won it, 13-12. It ceemed unlikely such a nq'icst would be honored, how. t.-ver Leasue President Jack Row. ! and already has commented he didn't "think it really mattered much because Winnipeg probably I already knew the Calgary plays S anyway." I Bandicra denied the charge. "I'm innocent of everything they accused me of," he said. "Just be- " cause I happen to be friendly with fa certain player on the Winnipeg W team, they accuse me of divulging 3 plays. m There was no comment from 3 the Winnipeg club owners or play. B ers on tire matter. SThe Ottawa players were fined $100 for each of the Inst two games. The club announcement said the fines were imposed "for failure to exhibit the caliber of S football of which the players are H capable. , ? The announcement added "im- mediate steps are being taken to 2 secure replacements in an en 5 deavor to strengthen the team. v Thi Ri Vctwr cluh did not identi fy fy Uie players or reveal how many 9 American imports were involved, f Tlie Rough Riders were whipped v 35-7 and 43-6 in two weekend 2 games with Montreal. The team record is 2-6 this season. But Saturday It happened. Those wondrous Wolverines of Michigan spiked the big guns of the Army Cadets, winning 26-2 for the first time and making easy-going Bon nie Oosterbaan the United Press coach of Uie Week. Oosterbaan, who takes matters in stride in an ulcer-producing pro fession where most guys don't dare to relax from September through December, admits "that was one of the real big victories for us since I took over as coach back in 1948." But it didn't surprise him. SUSTAINED DRIVES I think we're capable of doing better." he reasoned. "We haven't had a long sustained march yet, not even In the Missouri game when we scored 42 points. I'd really like to see a few of those 70 and 80 yard drives." Oosterbaan. who was named coach of the year In his first sea son, could be heading for the same honor again because the victory over the Cadets boosted Michigan to the top in the weeklv ratings of the United Press Board of Coaches. There was no special poinlina for Ajmy's legions, who had won every game played since the series started In 1945. But the Wolverines were ready. "It is an odd feeling getting ready for a big game like that one with Oosterbaan as your coach," said ono player. "You don't really feel as if you arc being coached but all of a sudden you are out there doing the right thing because unconsciously you have learned from him." PREDECESSOR Oosterbaan, friendly, easy to know and not as aloof as his pre decessor, Ritz Crtzzler, likes to work on the practice field with baseball cap cocked to one side of his head. He has been coaching at Michi gan since 1928, the year he was graduated after being an All America end. He was an assistant coach in football, baseball and basketball, and in 1938 became head basketball coach. He kept that job for eight years until switching back' to football as the number one assistant to crisier. When Crisier gave up as coach after bringing the all-victorious 1947 team in with a 49-0 victory in the Rose Bowl against South ern California, Oosterbaan took over. He kept the victory string intact the following year and succeeded Crisier as coach of the year. ' Sports World Shorts iUSSROr US Top Topic In I Olympic Talk J SAN FRANCISCO W Who Is going to win the 1956 Olympic t Games , at Melbourne, the United States or Russia? J American sports fans find that question a good topic for spirited S debate. Bui members of the In- ternational Olympic Committee S find it a fearsome thing, a dang I er to their cherished ideals of i Olvmnic comnetition. J With physical arrangements tor J the Melbourne games nearing H completion, the men behind the S Olympics are turning their attcn- S tion more and more to the fierce n nationalism that spawns the ques- j tion and keeps It alive. "The Olympic Games are con- S tests between individuals," presi 9 ciint Avery Brundage of the in- J ternational committee said J Wednesday. "They are not and J they must not become contests N between nations to decide the su- i periority of one nation over an- 2 other, or of one political system u over another." 5 Biundage and Lewis Luxton, chairman of the organizing com- mittee for next year's games, S pleaded with newsmen to do what they could to abolish or. at least m minimize the use of any unofficial J point system to determine the lead J lng teams in Olympic competition. S Luxton said point systems were 5 ridiculous. "How," he asked, "can you balance a gold medal won by f tiny Luxembourg against a gold j! medal won by the United States? How can you balance a gold medal J won in the marathon against a 5 gold medal for being a member a of the championship gymnastics team?"

Trabert Joins Pro Net Ranks LOS ANGELES W Top tennis player Tony Trabert today faced a new ana strenuous career on uie courts of the world and a chance to earn $100,000 as a newly turned proiessional.

Ken Rosewall and Lewis Hoad of Australian Davis Cup fame. Kramer said the two young Aussles havo until Oct. 17 to make UP their minds about quitting the amateur ranks. He said he believes they will accept his terms, a re ported $50,000 apiece. Kramer admitted the Trabert contract was better than the $75,000 he guaranteed Frank Sedg man of Australia several years ago, and he said that if all goes well, crew-cropped Tony should gross $100,000 for the 290 matches he faces. Kramer also revealed that Tra- bert's oomract has two clauses, one contingent on a two-man tour with himself, and the olher and better one based on the presence of the two young Aussies.
