The Oregon Tech Owls and
Klamath Union Pelicans both' de
parted this morning for football
action tonight and Saturday after
noon in their respective conference
races, and with the leaving of the
Tech squad comes news that ath
letic director and head football
coach Rex Hunsaker expelled four
of his first-string ball players on
the eve of the trip. '
Tonight the Pels meet Medford
in a Southern Oregon Conference
clash starting at 8:15 on the Med
ford turf, and the penalty-stricken
Owls face Eastern Oregon College
Saturday afternoon at 3 o'clock in
the Mounties homecoming game
of the year at La Grande.
(Hunsaker announced late Thurs
day that he had expelled four
starters, including both of his
tackles and the number one set of
halfbacks, which of course will
hurt Tech's- chances of stopping
their OCC rival. Those given the
"boot" by Hunsaker were tackles
Tom Wylie and Richard Perllck,
and halfbacks Tommy Carion and
(Jarl Pastore.
All four of the boys, Pennsyl
vania high school graduates last
spring, were lifted from the team
and school for disciplinary rea
sons and their failure to attend
classes, according to Hunsaker.
The foursome had been warned
about class attendance, and re
porting regularly for football practice.

Medford's offense will be led by
halfbacks Eldon Francis, Gary
Riley and Gordon Owsley, a trio
of break-a-way runners with plen
ty of grid savy. At fullback, coach
Fred Speigelberg will have t h e
services of Bob Gee and Lo r e n
Christean. Francis has averaged
6.9 yards per carry this year in
51 tries. Christean has a 16.2 av

yards in 27 and 21 carries respec

land; Completed a reorganization
ot the cub front omce and Held
leadership started Thursday with
three top level resignations and
naming , of two new vice presi
dents. '.
Scheffing, " 41, a former Cub
catcher, and Holland, as general
manager, worked together as an
executiveJield boss team at Los
Angeles this year.
Scheffing had taken ' the Los
Angeles job May 25, .1955, after
serving as a Cub coach in 1954
and part of 1955 under Hack, who
resigned Thursday along with per
sonnel director Wid Matthews and
business manager Jim Gallagher.
Holland announced that Schef
fing was signed to ir one year
contract and will take charge of
the club immediately. ' '
Returning to his third hitch
with the club is Charlie Grimm.
Joining him in the reorganized
front office is John Holland, In
baseball 35 of his 46 years and on
the Cub pay roll the last 11.
. They were given titles of vice
president.
Holland, as president of the
Cubs' Los Angeles farm in the Pa

as field manager, produced a pen

Remaining as executive vice
president of the Cubs Is another
veteran,, 75-year-old Clarence
(Pants) Rowland.
They Have the assignment of
lifting the Cubs up by the boot
straps after 10 dismal seasons in
the National League second divi
sion.
The Cubs finished 1956 In last
place for the fourth time since
1949 and with 94 defeats, worst
record in their history.
Matthews was Branch Rickey s
"talent man" with the St. Louis
Cardinals and the Brooklyn Dodg
ers when Cub owner P. K. Wrig
ley hired him in 1950. He is i
smiling, 59-year-old gentleman
who sincerely thought the Cubs
were on the climb and received
the brunt of criticism when they
kept taiispinnlng.
No sooner had Wid resigned than
Gabe Paul, general manager of
the Cincinnati Redlegs, said that
he "is a very capable fellow and
we d like to have him in our or
ganization."
Gallagher, a former Chicago
sports writer, had been with the
Cubs since 1940. One rumor has
him winding up across town with
the White Sox.
Hack was a long-time third
baseman for the Cubs and man
aged the Des Moines and Los An
gelcs farm clubs before replacing
one of his former teammates, Phil
Cavarretta, at the helm in the
spring of 1954. He was the Bruins'
fourth manager in eight years.

Griffith
Has Eyes
On Switch
WASHINGTON 11 Calvin
Griffith said Thursday he would
seek to persuade President WiU
Harridge of the American League ,
to keep an open mind on a pos
sible franchise shift for the Wash
ington Senators,
Harridge said in Chicago the
league "could pot afford" to call
a meeting to consider transfer of
the franchise unless there was
harmony among Washington pfU- ,
cials. .. .
That was a reference to the
statement by H. Gabriel Murphy,
club treasurer and largest single
stockholder, that he opposes any
plan to move the Senators out or
Washington and will fight it in the
courts if necessary. .
Murphy owns 40 per cent of; the
Washington baseball club stock.
Members of the family of the late
Clark Griffith control 52 per. cent.
Calvin Griffith, the club president, .
has said he is seriously weighing
a shift to Los Angeles or some
other city.
The deadline for any franchise
shift to become effective next
year is Oct. 31. Harridge said ;
there would be nothing n gain if
Griffith asked fellow club owners
to take up the matter "unless all i
stockholders were represented in
the request."
We don t want to get In the
same situation we did when a fam
lly squabble hampered the trans- -fer
of the Philadelphia A'l to
Kansas City," Harridge said, al
luding to the most recent Amer
lean League shift two years ago. -
Griffith said In an interview :-
'this is a different situation" than'
that which marked the Athletic!
move, and that he planned to ask
Harridge not to foreclose the pos-
sibility of a league meeting. -
A franchise shift requires fa
vorable votes from six of the eight
clubs in the loop.
Griffith, said he would be ex-.
tremely reluctant to leave the cap
ital but felt bound to study offers
"which might be advantageous" ;
irom los Angeies; Ban r rancisco,
Louisville or other cities. He add
ed that no concrete written plant
had been , submitted and said mat
when one is he will call the club's
five-man board of directors to con- .
sider it.
