Pels, Owls Face Out Of Town Foes; RU At Redding, Compton Hosts 07 There will be no action on the home front for the Oregon Tech Owls or the Klamath Union Pelicans this weekend at Modoc Field, but just the same, the two clubs will be taking up the pigskin game on foreign soil, namely California.

Last week, KU was dumped 26-0 by Reno, but Redding's prepsters poured on the steam to rock Oroville High School club 20-13 and snap a 27game winning streak.

Last Saturday, Compton tripped up Bakersfleld JC 27-0. Reports from Compton reveal that the Tartars are strong er than last year with the return of several outstanding boys from the service, and the addition of some topflight freshmen just out of high school ranks. The Tartars are four deep at every position except quarterback, where coach Tay Brown has ONLY three boys capable of running the club. Next weekend, both the Pels and Owls will be playing before the home folks.

Southern California s power aden Trojans and the Beavers of Oiegon Slate, both winners in opening games against intersex tional foes, meet Friday night in Pacific Coast Conference foot' ball battle in Los Angeles' Me morial Coliseum.

Intersectional battles between PCC and Big 10 teams highlight the Saturday menu with the West Coast gigantic staged at Alto, where Chuck Taylor's Stan ford Indians entertain Michigan State. TOUGH JOB Minnesota plays Washington at Seattle while California meets Il linois at Champaign and the UCLA Bruins draw a tough as signment against Michigan at Ann Arbor. The second strictly conference game of the weekend finds Idaho at Eugene playing Oregon while independent San Jose State battles at Washington State. USC rates as favorite over Ore gon State, but Trojan scout Mel llcin warned that the Beavers have the same personnel as last year except at left guard, right tackle and blocking back. The Beavers' attack centers largely on halfbacks Sam Wesley and tailback Joe Francis. Against Missouri, Joe threw a pass to Sam on a touchdown play good for 62 yards. Stanford's Chuck Taylor soys that if any team can beat Michi gan State this season, his Indians could do it. Chuck feels his pass ers, paced by quarterback John Brodic, and receivers can pos sibly counteract the Spartan run ning attack. Michigan State's Duffy Daugh erty warns, however, not to under estimate his club's passing. "Our quarterbacks throw on the run and do a lot of passing from the option." he said. DOPESTERS Dopcsters pick Illinois over Cal ifornia, but to win it, the lllini will have to stop the Bears' pass ing attack that clicked well in a 7-6 loss to Baylor.

Bruin Coach Red Sanders says, however, that if his team moves and strikes like it did against Utah, "we won't be humiliated." Oregon, led by halfback Jim Shanley, romped over Colorado 35-0 in the opener and should do about the same thing to Idaho. Washington, after drubbing Ida ho 53-21 as sophomore back Luther Carr made an auspicious debut, hosts a Minnesota club that s been warned by its coaches to "growl back" at the Huskies. Tatum Gets Chance To Upset Oklahoma By YllE ASSOCIATED PRESS By OSCAR FRALEY Untied Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP)-The New York Yankees aren't too content as they await the outcome of the National League pennant race to day because their pitching is wob bling -and their series fate may rest in the hands of a one time castoff and a perennial doghouse inhabitant. The Yankees, who still figure to be the series favorite, were shak en up a bit when Whitey Ford hurt his back. On top of that, Tom Sturdivant and Johnny Kucks haw not been too effective of late. Which could place a terrific load on Tommy Byrne, onco u pi; wanderer of the baseball waste raio i i . , . a modern tintype of the unpre dictable Rube Waddell. Ford, if he can move his arm. undoubtedly will get the first game call because he is the Yanks money pitcher. Sturdivant and Kucks will get their share of work, too, but you can't get away from recent statistics. NEEDED HELP Kucks gave up seven hits as he was beaten by Baltimore in the last series and has needed help in his last four games three of which the Yankees lost. Sturdi vant, who figures to start the third game in the classic, has needed bullpen aid in his last five starts, of which the Yankees lost three. The lost time out, Balti more nicked him for five runs on six hits and three walks. Pitching Coach Jim Turner de nies that the American League hitters have seen enough of them and have "caught on" to what they're tossing. Maybe he should wish that this was the case. Other wise, the National League oppon ent may make merry against two tossers who have lost the big toucn. If that's the case and Ford's back doesn't come around as it should, Larsen and Byrne may be I the two most overworked pitchers! in the series. j HOT STREAK Larsen, who figures to start the! second game of the scries, has been hot as a two dollar pistol of late. His last three efforts, against; Baltimore, Detroit and Boston, all I have been four-hitters although in the last named he needed a ninth inning assist from Byrne. The six-foot, four-inch Hoosicr often has been in the Yankee dog house. In the spring of 1955 the business-like Yankee management almost blew its collective stack when he reported to spring train ing 25 pounds overweight and nrc ferrcd reading comic books in the bullpen to pitching batting prac tice or running. Byrne at 36 still is regarded as a clutch pitcher after years of near anonymity because of wild- ncss. Earlier in his career he was traded away, shuffled among sev eral clubs and wound up back in the Coast League. There he found himself and the Yanks brought him back at the end of 1954. He and Larsen well could be the balance of power this time around. Football Coach Jim Tatum gets his second chance of 1956 to play ole man upset when his North Carolina Tarheels meet defending national champion Oklahoma tomorrow. Just over nine months later. Tatum, now drawing his diagrams lor nis alma mater, North Caro lina, finds himself sending his once-beaten Tarheels against the Sooners who are primed and ready to lay claim to a second national championship and Notre Dame's untarnished record of 39 victories without defeat. ' tisewnere in tne nation, many ot the top teams aro also opening their schedules this weekend. , Friday night South Carolina, al ready winner of two games, one the heralded 7-0 upset of Duke, takes on one of the country's top independent's, Miami, while on the west coast Southern California. rated No, 6 in the weekly Asso ciated Press poll clashes with Oregon Slate.
