By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Springfield. Willamina and
Poweri rolled to victories' in the
opening round of the Oregon high
school football playoffs Friday
night.
The lineup for the semifinals
next weekend will be completed
after nine games Saturday.
Springfield, No. 2 in the Asso
ciated Press poll, scored twice in
the first 63 seconds and went on
to crush McMinnville, 34-13, in
rlass A-l.
Bon Nockleby,- high-scoring fuU-
back, registered three touchdowns
and an extra point in leading
Willamina to a 25-6 victory over
Dallas as class A-2 playoffs began.

Fullmer Nods
Neal Rivers
NEW YORK (UP) Former
champion Gene ,Fullmer yelled
louder than ever Saturday for a
February return-shot at the mid
dleweight crown after his majority
decision over dangerous Neal Kiv
ers. Bull-shouldered Fullmer protect
ed his status as possible challeng
er Friday night by giving the Cali
fornia state champion a thorough
body-beating in the late sessions
of their exciting TV-radio 10-
rounder at Madison Square Gar
den. "But Harry Markson, managing
director of the International Box
ing Club, said "everything must
be held in abeyance until Sugar
Ray Robinson decides what to do
probably within the next 10
days."
Robinson, who recaptured the
160-pound title from Fullmer on
May 1 and lost it to Carmen Ba
sllio on Sept. 23, has a return-bout
contract with champion Basilio.
-Fullmer, West Jordan, Utah,
registered his third straight come
back victory since his fifth-round
knockout by Robinson in May.
Registering 159'4 pounds, second
ranked Gene clinched the verdict
by his strong finish against 157-
pound Rivers, who fights out of
Los Angeles but claims Niagara
Falls, N.Y., as his permanent
home. Rivers is unranked. Gene's
closing drive was punctuated by
his taking the 10th round on all
three official score sneets.

Army Passes
Bowl Verdict
To President
NEW YORK (UP) - The "Old
Army Game" apparently has
passed the buck of Army's New
Year's Day bowl status to the
White House.
The "game" started on the
plains above the Hudson Thursday
when Lt. Gen. Gar Davison, acad
emy superintendent, called atten
tion to a nine-year old no-bowl pol
icy. Gen. Davison observed, how
ever, that this policy could be
changed by the Pentagon.
This statement whisked the buck
into the corridors of the Pentagon
in Washington, D.C., where an
"Army spokesman" fielded it
neatly and sent it on its way to
still higher authority.
"I can see no reason and no
set of circumstances under which
the academy would be told to play
in a bowl game," the spokesman
said. "If such reasons should de
velop, however, the order could
come from the Secretary of the
Army, the Secretary -of Defense or
the white House.
In other words, Army will ac
cept a bowl bid if President Ei
senhower says it's okay. Academy
officials know they won't get the
okay without a victory over Navy
on Nov. 30 but they'd like to pass
along the official word to Cotton
Bowl officials who'll be poised in
Philadelphia Municipal Stadium,
Nov. 30, to make a bee-line for
the winner's dressing room.
Both Army and Navy have been
mentioned as possible Cotton Bowl
opponents for unbeaten and untied
Texas A&M. which can nail down
the Southwest Conference bid Sat
urday. Navy whipped Mississippi.

he explained. "But every time we

George M. Trautman, president

"You know when you walk on

"You can select associates who

when one of their cars crashed

of the most tragic in car racing

PGA Boosts
Prize Money
In Tourneys
By HAL WOOD
LONG BEACH. Calif. (UP)
The ever-expanding PGA tourna
ment trail looked ahead to its
greatest year in history today
after tournament bureau manager
Edwin C. Carter announced in
creases in prize money in many
tournaments.
Carter said the pros would play
for $1,400,000 during the 1958 cam
paign and among the purse in
creases were these:
1. The George S. May tourna
ments at the Tam O'Shanter in
Chicago would give prizes totaling
$150,000. This included $105,000 in
the world event, which has been
changed from open to invitational;
$30,000 in the All America; $16,000
in the World for women and $8,000
in the All America for women.
2. The Palm Beach Round Rob
in in New York, formerly a
$50,000 event was expanded to a
$ti0,000 72-hole medal play.
3. The $25,000 Miami Beach
Open replaces the $12,000 Azelia
Open.
Promoter George S. May of
the Tam O'Shanter tournaments
skirted the PGA's new policy of
collecting all entrance fees by
changing his big open to an
invitational.
The new policy calls for pay
ment of 10 per cent 0 the purse
above prize money to the PGA
tournament bureau. In his com
promise, May agreed to pay 10
per cent of the first $50,000 in
the world championship and listed
the other $55,000 as a "bonus" to
the winner.
In earlier action, Houston cut
its purse from $36,000 to $30,000
and set up an invitational, elim
inating the entrance charges and
paying the $30,000 service item
Instead of turning over the fees
In another, purse reduction, it was
announced that the Texas Open
at San Antonio would be changed
downward from $20,000 to $15,000.
Other action today included an
nouncement that the annual sen
iors tournament at Duncdin, Fla.,
would be played on a 72-hole basis
with Uie prize money tipped from
$8,000 to $10,000 and the rich
Ardmore, Okla., Open sponsored
by Waco Turner, would be back
on the tournament trail in 1959.

rd, currently hold one game
eads over the Lions and Balti
nore Colts.
The Giants (5-2) face the Phil
adelphia Eagles while Cleveland,
eading the Eastern Conference
tfith six victories in seven starts,

be at the Chicago Bears and Los
Angeles clashes with Green Bay
at Milwaukee. The Chicago Cardi
nals and Pittsburgh Steelers are
not scheduled.
This will be the second meeting
of the year between Detroit and
San Francisco. The 49ers won
35-31 on the West Coast two weeks
ago. But that was in the midst
of the Leon Hart controversy and
before Bobby Layne found his
passing eye. Layne whipped three
touchdown aerials last week in the
27-16 triumph over Philadelphia.
The 49ers come off a 37-24 set
back by Los Angeles.
The Giants likely will be with
out the services of flu-victims
Alex Webster and Gene Filipski.
But they should have enough oth
er backfield strength to get by the
hagles, whom they beat 24-20 in
their second game of the cam
paign. Philadelphia has won only
two of seven.
Baltimore, by winning, will gain
ground on either Detroit or San
Francisco. A triumph for the' Colts
and one for Detroit will put the
Western Division race in a three
way deadlock. The Bears, how
ever, may give Baltimore trouble
since they won their last two
games against Los Angeles and
Green Bay.

Asks Tommy
To Quit Ring
SACRAMENTO. Calif. (UP)
The chairman of the California
Athletic Commission said Saturday
that because of apparent "lack of
ability," he would ask that heavy
weight boxer Tommy (Hurricane)
Jackson be prevented from fight
ing again in this state.
Chairman Dan O. Kilroy said he
would also ask that Jackson be
retired from boxing altogether and
his name stricken from the list of
the top 10 in his division.
Kilroy said he based his judg
ment on what he saw Wednesday
night when Eddie Machen scored
a 10th round TKO over the "hurri
cane" in San Francisco's Cow Pal
ace. "Jackson demonstrated a com
plete lack of ability in the first
two rounds or at least failed to
use what ability he had," Kilroy
said.
Jackson was supposedly in the
"pink of condition," Kilroy said,
and "his lack of effort against
Machen was not due to any ill
ness or physical disability I just
don't know what it was."
The New York Athletic Commis
sion, meeting in New York City,
asked Jackson Friday to retire.
