On Genuine Chevrolet Port Outsiders Key Behind Revolt Says Cherberg SEATTLE (UP) Johnny cher berg, recently tired as University of Washington football coach, in dicated here last night outside influences were a factor in his dismissal. Could It be I was fired because R. C. (Torchy) Torrance was fHced with losing control of some of the players?" Cherberg asked during a 22-mlnute simulcast over a Seattle radio-television station (KINO). Torrance Is a key athletic re cruiter for the school. Cherberg Roadkings Claim Second Goose Tatum Klamath Basin basketball, fans will be In for a big treat Thursday nigni at Oregon Tech s gymnasium as the Klamath Falls Basketball Association presents the H a r 1 e Roadkings In an exhibition game against an all-star delegation from the local City League. Game time Is 8-o clock. One of the prime factors in the Roadkings large drawing power at the box office so far this season has been the playing of big Lester Burn, a wizard with a basketball. Every owner of a traveling bas- teiDall team would welcome Goose Tatum, former Globetrotter great to his basketball roster and Bobbv Orund, owner of the Harlem Road kings thinks he now has the an swer after signing Burks, who he thinks is a carbon conv of the great Goose. Burks, six-foot seven-Inches in height and believe it or not with an 80 inch arm span, can imitate the funny antics and ball handling of the famous former Globetrotter to a "T". In the pivot spot for the Harlem Roadkings. Burks will show his clever ball handling routine and now-you-see-it now-you-don't hide and seek find the basketball as he moves his long arms and legs to fool his opponents. Most of the time Burks is hooking baskets into the hoop with either hand and to date has scored as high as 45 points in a single game. Orund's Roadkings now will place on the floor not one but three players that can keep the fans in an uproar of laughter. Veteran Bud Collins, a great set shot artist, will still take over the comedy on the floor with his ad-libbing to the lans, and Sonny Mitchell will daz zle the local sports followers with a "dribbling act" that is sensa tional. And don't forget that when the Harlem Roadkings take the floor anything can happen from base. ball playa, football plays and even slow motion antics that fools lans and players alike when they put the basketball Into action. YMCA Church League First Baptist, Peace Memorial and Sacred Heart all registered wins In last night's Intermediate Division YMCA Church League games at Twyla Ferguson School.

Torrance could have stopped It "In his apartment or office, wher ever he met with a couple of dis gruntled players." Cherberg said. He also insisted Harvey Cassill, athletic director, and H. P. iDick) Everest, the school's vice presi dent, could have stopped the con troversy last Nov. 21 the first time .the players made a formal complaint against Cherberg. TAKES ADVICE Cherberg said Cassill. acting on Everest s advice, informed him not to have his assistant coaches at a meeting where the situation was to be talked over among the players. "Cowboy" Johnny said at that meeting the son of a prominent downtown alumnus buttonholled players outside the door and told them to ask questions and keep the discussion alive. "I found later the boy who opened with questions and kept the discussion alive had been in Cassill's office just prior tp the meeting," Cherberg said. Cherberg said Cassill told him after the meeting "John, you han dled yourself admirably. I'm all for you." RECOMMENDATION Cherberg said he would recom mend the school operate along the lines prescribed by Pacific Coast Conference regulations and not have the players looking beyond the coaches- and athletic depart ment for counsel. Both Cassill and Torrance de clined to comment on Cherberg's talk. The station has offered equal time to any member of the school's athletic department for rebuttal. I'm here because I believe I'm right," Cherberg said in begin ning his talk. "I don't want any body to feel sorry for me. please, because football has been really good to me."

American bobsledders are vital ly interested In a meeting here tomorrow of the International Bob sled Federation.

The Italians picked the smallest available men for the sleds, mak ing up the extra weight with lead slung as close to each sled's center of gravity as possible.
