HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE NINR Russia Widens Games Lead SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 1956 Washington Fires Cherberg Cassill Drops Axe On Mentor SEATTLE UP. Cowboy Johnny Cherberg, unable to subdue the angry bawling ol his University of Washington football team, old grads and undergrads, has been ordered to seek new pastures. -; The 49-year-old coach was fired yesterday after two hectic months of trying to stave off criticism angled his way from numerous quarters after a majority of his team denounced him as dictatorial. ' SEATTLE lPI Fired as head football coach at the University 1 of Washington, "Cowboy" Johnny Cherberg said Saturday thai the ' man who wielded the axe Harvey .'Cassill should also be dismissed 'from the job of athletic director. "For the good of the university. said the deposed coach, "and for ' the benefit of my successor and other coachea out there, right- minded citizens should take affirm- ative action to establish an athletic administration that will operate for 'the benefit of the students and cre ate a program without any con nection with any downtown interests.1 "I was fired without ever re ceiving the cooperation the regenta directed Cassill to give me when they acted Dec. 10." The announcement of his dis missal came from the office of H. P. Everest, vice president of the' university, after the axe was dropped by Harvey Cassill, dlrec- tor or athletics. It was Cassill who inherited the task by order of the university's board of regents which with a big "if" voted Dec. 10 to keep Cher berg. The "if" was incorporated :ln a proviso Cherberg would "ami cably resolve" his difficulties with his protesting team members. And Cassill was given the job of .deciding whether the cowboy so nicknamed for his parentheses shsped underpinning accom pllshed this objective. .. It was late in November, after the close of a 6-4-1 season which i had started out with much promise that 33 of the approximately 48 squad memoers complained to Cassill. The gist of their beef against Cherberg was what they called "dictatorial and highhand ed" methods of handling the team, jit never was very fully explained but added up to a statement "We don't like Cherberg." The noise grew and some "prom inent" graduates who long have been known to keep a finger in the institution's athletic policies . enimed in. '.. The regents met and said we'll keep Cherberg, and for a while the .tumult and shouting died off. Then, some talent pulled out of school. Four Santa Monica, Calif., players who had shown great promise on the freshman team said they were going home. Pels Humble Grants Pass In Mat Meet . Coach Dutch Simons' Klamath Union High School wrestlers chalked up a surprisingly easy tSouthern Oregon Conference mat victory Fifday afternoon over Grants Pan by a one sided 45-4 .margin. '. In the afternoon's junior varsity , meeting or: Pelican Court,- the Klamath Juyvees also won. 37-18. For the Pels, it was their sec ond straight conference triumph, and it marked the fifth win of the year against three losses, two of which were to college freshman teams.

In fact, the match was so lopsided that Grants Pass was able to gar ner only three individual points in is bouts. Richard Berg of the Pels whipped Dave Fllpse In the fea tured bout, 6-2, while Roy Ropp declsioned Claude Wyland 3-1, al lowing the Cavemen their three points for the afternoon's individ ual efforts. Larry Bender and Gary Cramer opened the matches for the Pels by ringing up decisions. Gary Roberts and Pete Barnhlsel added falls after Kuhlman's draw with Stevens to put Klamath in front 16-1. Four straight decisions by Klam ath's Gary Price, Bill , Sterner, Berg and Dave Leeling shot the Klamath mat squad into a 30-2 lead, and Ropp's decision bolstered the score to a 33-2 margin. C. B. Simons pinned Reid Daugherty in second straight fall by dumping the second round, and Darryl Pet erson of the Pels registered the the second straight fall by dumping Jerry Bastian of Grants Pass to Klamath's lead swelled to a 43-2 difference. With only one bout left, that ihe heavyweight tiff. Grants Pass as unable to counter in the double figures as the Pels rolled up what was expected to be one of their toughest tests this year.

Malin kept their counting record untarnished as they disposed of Sacred Heart Academy handily, 81-46V Chiloquin had little trouble in slipping by Bly's Bobcats at Chiloquin, 65-39.

America, had nothing to cheer but a second round hockey victory. Led by Johnny Mayaslch of Evelyth. Minn., who scored two goals, the United States ice hockey team registered a comeback 4-0 triumph over Poland and vrtually qualified for the championship bracket of the Olympic tournament. The yanks were upset by Czech oslovakia in their opening match Friday 4-3. But when the gold medals were handed out for the three latest championships, including the two man bobsled event dominated by the reckless Italians, the red, white and blue colors were back in line. EugenlJ Grishln, a 34-year-old Russian engraver who goes like the wind on ice. led a 1-2-4 Soviet finish in the 600 meter speed skat ing sprint with the world record shattering time of 40.2 seconds.

He was followed by his 140-pound teammate, Eugenio Monti, with 5:31.45. BOBSLED HOPE . America's bobsled hope, Weight- man (Bud) Washbond of East Hart ford, Conn., drove the U.S. No. 1 sled to fifth place with a time total of 5:38.16. The veteran Art Tyler of Rochester, N.Y., was sixth in 5 40.8 after barely avoiding a se rious accident with a high swerve which injured his brakeman, Edgar Seymour. , On his fourth and final run, Ty ler almost lost control of his sled as it careened wildly on the final turn, nearly throwing 8eymour onto the track. But the sled righted it self and Seymour, who had let his foot drag to try to prevent the accident, was carried to the hos pital with a knee and ankle In- Jury, Bill Carow, a young firefighter rrom Madison, Wis., made the United States' best showing in the ovu meter race, wnicn covers 548 yards and 2 feet, finishing sixth in 41.8 seconds.

NEAR SWEEP The near sweep of the speed skat ing and skiing tests boosted Rus sia's team total to 46 points. Fin land and Italy followed with 15 points and then came Germany with 10, Austria and Sweden 3 each, and the United States and Switzerland, 6 A each. There la no official team cham pionship in the Olympics but the traditional scoring system awards ten points for a championship and gives 6-4-3-3-1 for the next five places, in order. After Saturday'a spectacular showing, one Russian official com mented smugly: "We are delighted but we ex pected it because of the caliber of our athletes. Herb Schwarz of St, Paul, man ager of the American speed akaU ing team, pointed out that Carow, Werket, and Henry broke the Olympic record and added: "That was as much as we could hope to do." "The Russians simply - have turned up, with their vast recruit ing system, better skaters than ours." "The Russians are knocking our brains out in the Winter Olympics and they'll do It again In the sum mer games." bitterly commented Werket. The Minneapolis skater criticized the U.S. government for not giving more support to the development of atheltes. Grishin's victory came on mile high Mlyurina Lake on a glazed track acclaimed the fastest In the world. He was first off the mark In the races against time and he sat back and watched the others shoot at his world mark.
