ATLANTA Wl A magnificent
band of Auburn Plainsmen, led by
Howell Tubbs, an underrated quar

sensational sophomore end, upset
unbeaten Georgia Tech 14-12 Sat
urday to end a football famine of
14 years. ....
Na major breaks figured in the
battle of Southeastern Conference

Tech in the line and their fired up
backs more than matched Tech's
talented crew.
The victory put the once-tied
winners into the lead in the con
ference standings.'
The winning touchdown came
early in the final quarter with
Tubbs' passes eating up H of the
80 yards. Tubbs hit Phillips with
throws of 7, 12 and 20 yards, the
last play moving the Plainsmen to
Tech's. 5. After fullback Joe Chil
dress smacked the Tech line for
four yards, Tubbs sneaked over.
Childress kicked both conver

now like a stranglehold on the
SEC championship.

Into exhaustion here- Saturday
night and scored a 31-0 victory,
their first Pacific Coast Conference
win of the season.
Fullback Jack Morris, a 10-sec-ond
100-yard dash man, raced to
two touchdowns and his replace
ment, Fred Miklancic, plunged
over for the third.
California never posed a serious
threat. The visitors once pene
trated to the Oregon 22. But that
came on a drive that took 11 plays
to go 20 yards, and the march
sputtered to a. halt there.
At the start, It appeared that
neither team would get going.
They went through almost the en
tire first quarter without a first
down and exchanged punts seven
times.
But a 24-yard California punt
gave Oregon the ball on the Cal
ifornia 26 and Oregon seized the
opportunity. Four plays moved the
ball to the 14, and from there
Morris took a pitchout and ram
bled around left end to a touch
down. Two California tacklers met hiin
at the 5, but Morris had full speed
up and he simply pushed then,
back with him into the end zone.
Thai was on the first play of
the second quarter and by half
time, Oregon held a 14-0 lead.
The second score came on a 78-
vard drive right after California
had made its move to the Oregon
22. It took just six plays with
Morris reeling off a key 14-yard
run to the California 3. From
there Miklancic punched over.
The final score came at the
stait of the third quarter. Oregon
took the opening second halt kick-
off and moved 63 yards in 11
plays to a touchdown. Once again

Broncs Stage Second
Half Surge, Win 50-0
Boise Junior College's gridiron
machine, sixth-ranked in the na
tion, was held to seven points in
the first half of their non-league
intersectlonal clash with Rex Hun
saker's Oregon Tech Owls Satur
day night, but surged back in the
last frames to overpower the Mile
High Campus crew by a 50-to-0
count on Modoc Field.
" Coach Lyle Smith's Broncos were
a rough herd that rode roughshod
over the Owls in the third and
fourth quarters. The Idaho team,
somewhat astonished at the OT1
first half offensive, returned to the
field to chase over three touch
downs in the third quarter, and
then added four TDs In the last
stanza. ,
First half play favored the Owls,
whose lone scoring threat of the
evening was a 77-yard inarch that
died on the Boise three-yard stripe.
Oregon Tech racked up eight firs;
downs in the first half to one for
the invaders.
Boise's weight advantage and
rough brand of football began to
take its toll on the lighter Owls,
who were still smarting from
their 60-7 loss last week to Comp
ton. The Broncos' first score came
with 9:25 remaining in the second
quarter Dave Thomas, receiving a
bad pass from center, punted poor
ly or 13 yards to the Boise 49.
George Kom, a 190-pound fullback
from Sandpoint, Idaho, rammed
center for seven yards on the first
play, and Dale Chatterton, who

Blankenshlp kept the sir-ways

side all evening, spun and slithered
his way through the entire OTI
team for the 44-yards to paydirt.
His kick for the point was good,
and the score stood 7-0, when the
half ended five minutes later.
Smith's pep talk during the half
time intermission must have been
excoriating. The Broncos, appar
ently shaken by the OTI team's
fire and outstanding line play,
notched their second touchdown
with 10:55 of the third period re
maining. Eight plays after the sec
ond half klckoff, John Cranston
snared halfback Jim Warner's 15
yard aerial, and waltzed 20 yards
into the end zone. The try-for-point
kick was wide, but Boise
held a 13-0 lead.
On the following kickoff, Tech's
Frank Dunn returned the leather
ten yaras to the OTI 25. Thomas-,
w'.'.o lo t 13-yards on the 'first two
pleys, fumbled on third down, and
Boise end Lonnie Park recovered
on the Owl five. The third Boise
tally came on the ensuing play
with George Kom crunching the
five yard distance with 6:44 of
the quarter played. The try-for-point
again was wide, and the vis
itors led 19-0.
Ron Zarbnisky's 68-yard punt re
turn for a touchdown, the longest
Individual run of the night, ac
counted for the Broncos' fourth
score. After taking the ball over
on downs the Owls lost on two sus
cesslve downs, and Thomas punt
ed to the Boise 38. Zarbnisky gath
ered in the pigskin and outran the
en'ire OTI team to the goal line
with 1:15 remaining in the third
frame which ended in the Boise
team's favor, 25-to-0.
Coach Smith, substituting freely
during the second half, Inserted
Babe Andulza at the start of the
final quarter, and three plays la
ter the 163-pound speedster crossed
Into touchdown territory for Boise's
fifth tally with only one minute of
the period played. Andulza had
packed the ball for 26 yards on
the previous play. Bob Brulotte's
placement split the uprights to
run the 'score to 32-0.
Boise's sixth touchdown came
with 10:16 remaining. Cal "Sugar"
Smith, who replaced Dave Thomas
at quarterback, fired a pass in
tended for Charles Eccleston, but
Gary Hanchcy who played a bang
up game for the Broncs at left
end, leaped high to intercept the
heave. The alert wingman witn a
burst of speed eluded the Owl
delenders, and romped 35 yards
for the tally. The try-tor-point was
wide, and Boise's lead rose to
38-0.
The next Bronco touchdown
came with six- minutes remaining
in the game. The Juggernaut
weight of the Idaho 1 1 n emen
showed its effect in the closing
minutes of the contest. On three
consecutive plays, the Mile High
Campus crew lost 18-yards, and
on the fourth down freshman Scott
Hartley dropped back to punt, tne
pass from center was low, and the
ex-ChiloquIn High fullback's at
tempt to run the ball was four
yards short of the necessary yard
age. Taking the ball on downs,
the Broncos' Rich Hancock on a
cutback over center scampered 12
yards to the Owl 18. On the next
play Hancock took a pitchout and
swept lett end lor tne score, nis
trv-for-polnt was short, and Boise's
command stood at 44-0.
Fisticuffs enlivened the one-sided
hassle after the ensuing kick
off. Stan 8mlth, who was a bul
wark on defense for Rex Hunsak
er's weary warriors, was ejected
from the game on the first play
following Bob Bulotte's kickoff aft
er the 176-pound letterman guard,
who had battered the behemoth
opposition all night, decked one ol
the Broncos with a neat uppercut.
The Owls, after an incomplete
pass attempt, were penalized 15
yards from their own 25 back to
the ten. On the first play. Dave
Thomas fumbled on a savage Boise
tackle, and Larry Elliott, a 200
pound center from Sweet Home,
pounced on the loose pigskin In
the end zone for the Broncos' final
six point. The try-for-polnt missed
the uprights, and the final score
board reading favored Boise, 50-0.

SIDELINES
IT SKEMS TO BE SHAPING THAT Klamath Falls lost its
sports appeal with the falling of the Klamath Gems several years
back. That Is as far as professional baseball 'Is concerned.
We finally received word from the party who earlier In the year
was all fired up on the idea of bringing pro baseball back to the
Basin. And from the looks of It, the Idea went for naught.
The picture turned from a rosy pink t a thundering black
according to Frank Herron, business manager of the Spokane entry
In the Northwest League, of which Klamath was reported to have
a good chance of gaining entry. Herron was one of the persons In
volved in trying to help the people gain back the nation's favorite
f
TONY TSABcRT
, action brings headaches
somewhat, but nevertheless the picture seems dark, as we said once
before. .
Wenutchee drew 79,421 fans
second this year, the first season In NWL for the Ems, with a total
of 76,823. Salem was next at the 66,441 mark, and from here on down,
the attendance at Klamath's Class D games was better than that
drawn this past year by Trl-Clty, Spokane, Lewiston and Yakima,
which incidentally drew a total of 36,344 fans. Stopping to think, that
Is just a little bit better than 50 per cent of the Gems 1050 mark.
When thinking of these 1955 attendance figures of the North
west League one has to remember that in the last three or tour
years, the national picture of sporting event attendances has been
on the increase. A few years back major league baseball was hull
ing, but look at the 1955 records. Everyone and his second cousin
made Increases at the box office.
Our own opinion why baseball won't go In Klamath Falls Is
this: There are a few businessmen who are In a position to finan
cially lend a helping hand, but
Herron points out, that a minor
as the hometown's businessmen
; The NWL directors met yesterday with president, Babe Hollln
bury and what they settled Is unknown at this time. Whoever was
consulted here about baseballs return evidently didn't give a good
report. So, that's the way the squared ball bounces.
It's a shame, but if the people who are able refuse to make
the initial step for the Basin's people, there won't be any advance
ment for either of the two parties. .
TOW TRABF.RT'S SIGNING to tour the nation as a profes-
atonal tennis player gives the United Stalos Uavls Cup committee
