THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 14, 1957 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE NINE Ore Tech Drops JC Athletics Affiliation Oregon Tech, which since its be-ias we will have a limited number ginning in 1948, has competed ath letically as a junior college nas withdrawn from the National Jun ior College Athletic Association. "This was made necessary be cause more and more athletes are expressing interest in the school's advanced courses," announced Rex Hunsaker the Tech School's Ath letic Director. "We feel that inas much as we are already members of a four year school conference it is natural now to consider competi tion with the four year schools in this area." Tech, though listed as a junior college, has competed on even terms with members of the Oregon Collegiate Conference. They recent ly placed third in the football race and last ieason captured both the track and basketball champion ships. of advanced athletes we will be pleased to have them do so." W. D. Purvine, director of Ore gon Tech confirmed withdrawal from the National Junior College Athletic Association due to several three year curricular offerings. "We believe it necessary to clear ly define our educational objectives in fairness to some junior colleges who have expressed' concern," stated Mr, Purvine.

"This competition has included two of the top junior college teams of the nation, Compton College from California, and Boise JC from Ida . ho, as well as junior college compe tition in t!e states of Washington and Utah. "This merely means that wo are announcing a policy of using ath letes in their junior and senior years and so therefore we are no longer eligible to belong to the National Junior College Athletic, As sociation. "Several junior college teams havA inHimtpri intprpst in rnntinn. ing on our schedule and inasmuch : CIS resentative in the Pacific Coast Conference, has recommended that college athletes be given the "full ride" tuition, books, board and room. Dr. Kaplan, who also is chair man of the U.S. Committee for t h o International Geophysical Year, offered his views at a news conference following a Bruin Var sity Club banquet Wednesday night. The educator endorsed in'part the stand taken by Ohio State Uni versity faculty men who say a re-definition of amateurism is needed in college sports. "I don't think that football play-1 and other athletes should mai son oi ining, ur. Kaplan said. "But I think they should get a reasonable support for their con tribution. "1 don't think an athlete should come out of college with a profit, but I also don't think he should take a loss. He should receive-the essentials board, room, books and tuition." He suggested that representa tive groups of athletes and other students from Pacific Coast Con ference schools might get together and formulate a set of standards. "I'm confident their proposals would be modest and practicable. After all, the faculty people have tailed to solve the problem, so why not let the students have a try?" Dr. Kaplan called the Ohio State recommendation a move in the right direction, and added M 1 V I. "Alia boy, Jim! Show liim you can put up plenty of fight, too Fullmer May Meet Champ NEW YORK (UP) Manager Marv Jenson disclosed today he had a guaranteeing letter from Jim Norris that would enable him to force a middleweight title fight in case Gene Fullmer beats Neal Rivers at Madison Square Garden Friday night. Fullmer ' won the lBO-pound crown from Sugar Ray Robinson last Jan. 22, Jenson explained. Fullmer consented to defend against Robinson indoors at Chi cago Stadium on May 1, because of the letter of guarantee from Norris, Jenson explained. And Gene lost his title on a fifth-round St , , .'. . , j.j.-,"1 uId like t0 sec the idea The letter to Jenson, dated April ;pickcd up and developed to the 23 - a week before the Chicago jexlellt of defining an amateur in fight and apparently signed by collese sports as one who comes iums, iLdus. i out. even when he graduates. UKai lUdiMn: Jinr, will Lull firm our understanding. In the event Gene Fullmer defeats Ray Robinson in the middleweight title fight on May 1, then the Interna tional Boxing Club will promote a fight in New York between Gene Fullmer and Carmen Basilio for the middleweight championship of the world. "In the event Robinson defeats"! Fullmer, then the winner of the Robinson-Basilio contest will meet Gene Fullmer in a middleweight contest. Fullmer is rated second only to Robinson among contenders, and if he heats unranked Rivers Fri day night, Jenson said, "I'll insist that Fullmer gels the first title shot at Basilio, in case Robinson retires and doesn't fight him. "Or, If Robinson decides to fight Basilio, I'll insist by legal means, if necessary that both Robinson and Basilio sign con tracts, guaranteeing that the win ner will defend against Fullmer." Machen Batters Hurricane For TKO Victory In Tenth Major Teams Await Drawing NEW YORK UP) Big league clubowners hold their annual bar gain basement day" on Dec. 2 at Colorado Springs, Colo., when they Istudv a list of minor leaguers that range from "octogenarian" Satch el liaige to Nippy Jones, a real live World Series hero of 11157. The rummage sale, better known as the annual draft, is a feature of the major league meet ings. For as little as $2,000 or as much as $15,000, an owner can take the chance that his choice will blossom into a star. Few choices do but the owners don't stop trying. Baseball Commissioner , t ora Frick, who supervises the draw ing, announced that player select ed from the open classification will go for $15,000. Triple A play ers are available for $10,000, dou ble A for $7,500; Class A for $6,000, Class B for $4,000, Class C for $2,500 and Class D for $2,000. Most of the players selected come from the top two brackets. The Washington Senators will get first pick, as befits their eighth-place standing in the Amer ican League, followed by the Pitts burgh Pirates, the eighth-p lace National League team. The world champion Milwaukee Braves have the Kith choice. SAN FRANCISCO tfi-A title, fight, low blows and possibilities of retirement formed boxing top ics today after undefeated heavy weight Eddie Machen slammed and battered Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson into surrender. The 195-pound Machen, 25. of Redding, Calif., wants the cham pionship bout with Floyd Patter son. He has an added talking point since his televised fight with Jackson last night goes into the record as a loth-round TKO, the same as Patterson scored over the Hurricane July 29. Jackson and Manager Lippe Briedbart declared Eddie hit sev eral low blows in taking his 24th straight victory. Machen said he didn't hit below the belt know ingly. Referee Frankie Carter didn t assess any penalties for low punches. With Jackson's right eye puffed closed at the end of the 10th Briedbart called Carter over to view the damage and Frankie stopped it. The fight was sched uled for 12 rounds. GIANTS ON MOVE SAN FRANCISCO (L'PI The baseball Giants have completed their move to San Francisco bag baggage and even turnstiles. Three semi-trailers completed an eight-day trip from New York Wednesday with desks, file cabi nets, trophy cases, bats, gloves, ticket dispensers end turnstiles. I recommend that the fight be stopped," said Briedbart. Asked if he would have Jackson retire after the two consecutive batter ings by Patterson and Machen, Lippe replied: "He'll have to take long rest. Retirement is up to him." The Hurricane, from St. Albans. N.Y., who weighed his heaviest at 201 for this one, had little to say. Asked what he thought Machen could do against Patterson, he said only, "It'd be a good fight. Who'd win? I dunno." Jackson went down for a five count in the first round when he took a left and a right to the head, But from then on he remained up right although staggered repeat edly and wincing visibly under Machenj body attack. "I thought my left hooks to the body and head hurt him the most." Machen declared. Patterson had knocked the Hur ricane down three times before Referee Ruby Goldstein called a halt after 1:52 of the 10th in their July 29 engagement. Despite that beating, Jackson's appearance here drew 14,107 fans to the Cow Palace. They paid a gross of $56,877.50. Sid Flaherty, who manages Machen. said, "Our next move is up 'to Patterson, if he wants to fight us. If Patterson wants to fight Eddie, we're ready to talk business. If not, maybe we'll go to Europe for some bouts." Owls Host Centralia To End Grid Season Flu, Injuries Hit Giants NEW YORK UV-Thc Asian flu does strange things. It had the world champion New York Giants talking "trouble today as they prepared for their bunday Nation al Footbfll League game with the Philadelphia Eagles. The flu numbered all-league halfback Frank Giftord among Its victims last week, and he prompt ly ran feverishly for 126 yards Sunday as the Giants whipped the Chicago Cardinals 27-14. That was trouble? Yesterday the virus clipped Gene Filipski, and Jim Patton came up with an old-tasnionea chaflcy horse. Those two lead the club in punt and kickoff returns. Another regular defensive back, Dick Nolan, is still hospitalized with the flu. The only defensive backs left unbedded were rookie John (Reb ell Bookman, Ed Hughes, Ed Crawford and Emlen Tunnell. That means the defensive back field will be thin Sunday if the ailing Giants are -still on the shelf. It will also mean Tunnell, aided by Bookman, will have to run back most of the Philadelphia kicks. But that's trouble? Back in 1953, before Patton and Filipski were ever measured for pro uniforms. Tunnell set the NFL season record for most punts re turned 38 for 223 yards. One year he rolled up more than 850 yards with punt and kick oft returns and intercepted passes. The OTI Owls ignored the rain Wednesday and slushed through a mighty muddy practice session Wednesday in preparation for their final game of the 1957 season against Centralia Junior College Saturday night on Modoc Field. the team received a shot in the morale department last Saturday when they trampled the Humboldt State Junior Varsity team, racking up a completely lopsidea 59-13 vic tory over the Junior Jacks. For the first time since way back at the beginning of the sea son the Owl air attack took on some resemblance of a polished offense, with quarterback Charlie Ganter completing two scoring tosses to Allen Leach. But it was the ground attack which was the major difference as play after play the Owl backs were able to rip off long canters through gaping holes in the Hum boldt line. OTI coach Rex Hunsaker re ports all of the team are in good physical condition, and for the first time this season all of the team members will be ready to go full tilt in Saturday s game. He said Gary Riley still has a sore shoulder, but that this will be gone by Saturday. No changes in the starting line up are contemplated by Hunsaker and he feels he will probably play MR. UNIVERSE WINS TEHERAN, Iran (UP The Russians may have run off with the team title but Tommy Kono of Sacramento, Calif., won the most individual gold medals in the world weight-lifting champion shins. Kono. who won the middle weight title Monday, was named "Mr. Universe" Wednesday. just about everyone if the situa tion will allow It. Centralia will come into Owl ter ritory with a few bumps and bruis es and with only a three day rest. Centralia fell to the strong Yakima junior college eleven Tuesday, 18-6. The Owls in their second outing of the season fell to Yakima 13-6, in an extremely hard fought ground game, with Yakima's vic tory coming via a 200-pound trans fer from Washington State. The Ore Tech Owls and the Cen tralia Blazers battled to a 7-7 tie last season, with the Owls having to scramble a score across the goal line in the final quarter to deadlock the game. But Rex Hunsaker and a few of the boys who played in that game are out to chalk up more than just an even-steven fray this season. The statistics department of last year's game gives anything but a clear picture of the fray. The Owls led in every department and contained the Blazers to their own side of the field except for two deep penetrations. While on the other side of the ledger, the Owls were constantly knocking around down in pay-dirt territory, but the Centralia defense proved be too tough to crack with in the 10-yard line. Hunsaker feels the Owls have a real good chance to wrap up the season with a victory over the Blazers. Centralia, on the other hand, can be expected to trot into town with its usual rough and tumble style, of football that is capable of up setting anybody's plans.. With neither team possessing a dazzling passing offense, Sat urday's game shapes up to, pre sent local football fans a fine show ing of bruising ground play. if i THE Si WATEtf III AND FEAZIEE DISIILIEIT COHPM.
