WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER Irish Draw Role With NEW YORK UT1 Bob Zuppke. famed Illinois gridiron coach of yesteryear, once said the three college sports involving physical contact were football, wrestling and dancing. So off to the junior prom, Algernon, after picking this week's winners: Michigan State over Kansas State: The door to the Big Ten throne room is locked with Ohio State safely inside. The disap pointed Spartans to take it out on lowly Kansas State. Auburn over Florida State: The odds are against State even get ting a score. Michigan over Ohio State: Strictly on a hunch. The Ohioans won a trip to the Rose Bowl Satur day and a defeat won't cost them the Big Ten title. Iowa over Notre Dame: Randy Duncan's passing to bring the Hawkeyes a cherished triumph over Notre Dame by more than a touchdown. Oklahoma over Nebraska: The S o o n e r s start a new winning streak. Duke over North Carolina: A regular jim-dandy of a brawl with Duke's big size to be the deter mining factor. . Tennessee over Kentucky: The clawlcss can't score, so how can they win? Texas Christian over Rice: No reason for this choice. But there's no reason in that topsy-turvy Perils Of Gridiron Spying: Top Secret Daia Guarded NEW YORK (NEA) "Of ficer," the woman on the railroad platform pointed to the portly gent with the tightly clutched valise, "arrest that man. He snitched my bag." "Go ahead," motioned the fat man to the cop in the Pittsburgh police station, "open it." With the snap of the lock out tumbled a sheaf of papers, in scribed with strange hieroglyphics circles, squares, dotted lines, wavy lines everything but micro film. "No bras in there lady," shrugged the night sergeant. Jack Lavelle of the New York Giants quickly snapped his . bag shut. No local cop was going to get a peek at his top secret report of Pittsburgh the way it played football. "The perils of scouting," Jack shakes his head, "you get ar rested. They bar you from stad iums. You wind up in the wrong town." Lavelle is a congenial chap who once detoured 90 miles on a 150 mile trip to Hartford so he could find the bartender who knew just how to mix a whiskey sour. Even scouting football teams, Lavelle can't escape gustatorial millieus. - At Wrigley Field, George Halas used to sit him in the far corner of the baseball press box (virtually ' on Chicago's south side the Bears happen to play on the norm smei in a huddle of Halas' free-loading cronies, his favorite bartenders and waitresses, there to transcribe his confidential reports. This was subtly remedied when Pete Halas. Georges brother, came to New York to scout the lee Grosscup Cuts Greene's Offense Lead NEW YORK UP! Lee Grosscup. Utah's passing wizard, has moved jjllo the thick of the fight for the individual offense championship among major college football players. In 20th place two weeks ago, Grosscup has moved Into the No. 3 spot behind Tommy Greene of Holy Cross and Bob Newman of Washington State, NCAA Service Bureau statistics revealed Wed nesday. Green has 1.323 running-passing yardage followed by Newman with 1,254 and Grosscup, 1,231. The Utah star put together a two game total of 556 yards against Army ana the Air Force Academy in the last two weeks. Each has one game left to play. rass-compietion Honors are shared by Grosscup, Newman and Drake s Roger LaBrasca. Grosscup has a completion aver age ot .WH by far the high mark. His completed aerials also have covered the most distance, 1,327 yards. Newman leads in total completions with 90 with Grosscup close behind with 86 and Bob Winters of Utah State third with 80. Newman's passes have ac counted for 1,196 yards. LaBrasca has ended his season with 12 touchdown tosses, one more than Newman, Greene and Ken Ford of Hardin-Simmons. Nub Beamer of Oregon State College took over the No. 7 spot in rushing offense with 679 yards in 155 carries. The rushing leader is Leon Burton of Arizona State at Tempe, who has 967 yards in 96 tries at the line.

Scouting is no longer the sim ple business of watching a team play, jotting down a few notes and diagrams and reporting to the boss on Monday. Pete takes along a recording ensemble which requires an electric outlet. Modern Yankee Stadium has no such electric con trivance in the press box. In the true spirit of reciprocity, a specialyl strung line for Halas was exchanged for a decent seat for Lavelle. After 25 years of watching 25 games a season, scouting is pretty much cut and dried for Lavelle. "You watch the defense." he says. "The defense play they use, to figure out what Giant plays will go best against it. The defense they re opposing, for tins that'll stop their attack." Any little individual neculiari- ties. Jack? You're wasting your time. These guys are so smart they'll intentionally lick their fingers be fore a pass or paw dirt before a plunge to throw you off. Scouting for Notre Dame dur ing the war, I noticed that the Army quarterback had different stances behind the center, one for running plays, one for passing. It helped a lot. They only beat us, 52-0." Lavelle has followed the trend toward modern gadgets in scout ing. Jack will at times employ a portable dictaphone he can thrust into his pockets (they re ample, too, like the rest of him). The trouble is, when he plays back the tape, instead of noting where the linebacker was when the halfback flared to his right, he'll hear a Lavelle discourse on "that stupid quarterback and doesn't he know you don't pitch out when it's second and one." This was much like Harry Stuhl- dreher's problem when he coached Wisconsin. To preserve his pro found observations as the game unwound, Harry kept a dictaphone at his elbow. After the game, he listened to the recorded tape. "My gosh," he winced, "the profanity that man uses." Football Briefs By TIIE ASSOCIATED PRESS Lloyd Taylor, the Aggie who missed the extra point, is the same gent who was the PAT hero two weeks ago in A&.M's 7-6 job on Arkansas. Maybe the pres sure's not as great in the Ivy League. Dartmouth's Joe Paler mo, who two weeks ago booted the extra point that gained a 14-14 tie with Yale in the closing sec onds, booted the PAT that beat Cornell 20-19 in the last few min utes Saturday. Hill's job for Rice wasn't the only one-man show Satuday. Bernie Parrish scored both TDs, on runs of 45 and 25 yards, boot ed both PATs and stopped a late threat with an interception as Florida beat Vanderbilt 14-7 . . . Bob White, a third-string fullback, carried seven times, gained 65 yards and scored the winning TD as Ohio State went 68 yards in eight plays to beat Iowa- 17-13 for the Big 10 title and Rose Bowl berth . . . and Oregon s Jack Mor-1 ris scored 10 points in less than 5 minutes, kicking a 31-yard field goal, racing 63 yards for a TD and adding the extra point, as the Ducks defeated Southern Cal 16-7.

ANNUAL Thanksgiving Turkey Shoot Sunday, Nov. 24, 10:30 a.m. Klamath Gun Club - Wocus Everybody Welcome HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Pacific Coast SEATTLE. Wash. (UP) Full back Jim Jones will be ready for full game duty for the University of Washington Huskies in their game with Washington state Sat urday, according to Coach Jim Owens. Jones injured his ankle against Irish Coach Receives UP Grid Honors SOUTH BEND. Ind. (UP)-He told his quarterback to "be reck less, not cautious." He watched that quarterback get reckless enough to snap the na tion's longest winning streak, "and the way we played we would have beaten anybody. Yet he still wasn't content in his greatest glory, saying "we should have had a couple more touch downs." He's Terry Brennan of Notre Dame, the United Press football Coach of the Week after his Irish upset Oklahoma, 7-0, last Satur day and shattered the Sooners 47 game winning streak. Selection of 29-year-old Brennan marks the first time that the same man has been chosen coach of the week twice in one season. He also won the honor five weeks ago when the Irish upset Army. The advice to quarterback Bob Williams was unique. "We want you to be fearless and reckless out there, Brennan told him all week. "Think of a play that you couldn t possibly call in any given situation and then call it. Williams threw out his bread and-butter plays many times, now that the responsibility had been lifted from his shoulders. He passed from deep in his own ter ritory on several occasions. Then, with Oklahoma weary, he went back to power football in the last period on a relentless 20-play touchdown drive. The victory over Oklahoma lift ed the Notre Dame season record to 5-2, with those losses to Navy and Michigan State. There's no letup in sight for the Irish, who play host this week to a strong Iowa team smarting from a loss to Ohio State Saturday. Iowa al ways has proved tough for Notre Dame but how tough can anyone oe alter Oklahoma? Bob Newman Top Passer; Shea Rusher LOS ANGELES (UP) Sharp- shooting Bob Newman of Wash ington State today led the Pacific Coast Conference in passing and total offense in figures released by the PCC commissioners office. Official statistics as the PCC heads for the final weekend of league action showed that New man had completed 90 passes in 163 attempts for 1,196 yards and had a total offense mark of 1,254 yards and 14 touchdowns. Stanford s Jack Douglas had 70 completions in 127 tries, while Howard Willis, Idaho, and Jack Crabtree, Oregon, each had 42. Newman was trailed in total of fense by Joe Francis, Oregon State, with 1,007 yards, and Doug las, 966 yards. The top rushing spot was held by Stanford's Charles Shea, who has gained 685 yards in nine games, just six more than the 679 won by second-place Nub Beamer of Oregon State. Oregon's Jim Shanley was third with 628, fol lowed by teammate Jack Morris, 598. Don Ellingsen of Washington State led in pass receptions with 37 good for 477 yards and two touchdowns. He was followed by Oregon's Ron Stover, 20, and Jack Fanning, also of Washington State, 19. UCLA's Kirk Wilson was the top punter with a 42.3 yard aver age, compared to 39.1 for South ern California's Jim Conroy and 37.7 for Washington's Bob Dunn. Wilson was tied for first place with teammate Dick Wallen in pass interceptions. They each had four. Teamwise, the report revealed that Oregon is the best in the league on something the team may sorely need against mighty Ohio State in the Rose Bowl New Year's Day defense. Oregon, the West representative in Pasadena, led the league in total defense and rushing defense. The Ducks gave up but 268.1 yards a game while holding oppo- nets to 155.3 yards a game in rushing defense. PRO BASKETBALL By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Cincinnati 92, Detroit 75 St. Louis 118.

(UP) There's a rumor going around that the Oregon State Beavers are keeping busy preparing for Satur day's game with the University of uregon Ducks but even members of the booster group can't get near the heavily guarded practice tieia to connrm it. The Beavers have to defeat the Ducks to gain a tie for first in the PCC, and thereby successfully act end their title. STANFORD, Calif. (UP)- The odds-makers have picked Stanford as a seven point favorite over California in Saturday's Big Game, and apparently Coach Chuck Taylor of the Indians agrees with them completely. Taylor held Tuesday's practice session to a light workout, a short offensive drill and a chalk talk. BERKELEY, Calif. (UP) The University of California Bears are apparently unimpressed by the tact mat tney re picked as seven point underdogs in Saturday's Big Game against the Stanford In dians. Coach Pete Elliott gave his squad only a light workout Tues day, and the varsity was in the showers only 90 minutes after they turned out on the practice tieia.

Halltrtl X Tounty Fai $y55 $095 Sam Hanks Says Open Road Races Should Be Banned SAN FRANCISCO (UP) Smilin' Sam Hanks, the Crew-cut winner of the 1957 Indianapolis 500, Joined the chorus today de manding that "open road" racing be abolished In all countries. The 43-year-old driver, who will end 22 years of racing on Dec. 1 when he competes in a stock car event at Riverside, Calif., said that he agreed with Piero Taruffi of Italy, who wrote in a national magazine recently that the "dan gerous open road races should be halted. Taruffi is the only driver in history to win all four of the major open road races: In Italy, Sicily, France and Mexico. 'There is no way to protect ei ther the drivers or the spectators in open road racing," said Hanks. This particularly is true of the big races staged In Europe and Mexico. "However, I believe that races on closed tracks, such as Indian apolis and other tracks around the country do a great service by testing 'inventions for our pleas ure cars. Hanks, here for an oil dealers convention, said he was quitting at the age of 43 while he was "all in one piece." 'I've been racing 22 years and I feel my reflexes are as good as ever," he said. "But in all my racing I've never had a major accident, never had a broken bone. "In the meantime, many ot my friends have been killed, includ ing Bill Vukovich, Bob Sweigcrt, Rex Mays and Jack McGrath, I'm in a position to quit now while in good health and I hope to go into public relations in the auto Industry or hook on with In dianapolis Speedway. He will quit with an enviable record. Among his marks are: 1. Winner of more money at Indianapolis than any man in his tory he has appeared in 13 races, won more than $200,000, in win ning the last race. 2. He has won more money in midget auto races than any man in history. 3. He has appeared in approx imately 2,000 races and won about 500 of them. Hanks is a strong believer In lowan Says Evy To Stay WATERLOO, Iowa Ufi Iowa Athletic Director Paul Brechler says he doesn't believe Forest Ev- ashevski has any immediate plans to leave Iowa or to quit the coach ing field. When Evashevski remarked Sunday on a television show that . . , The coaching sands are run ning out in my hour glass," it gave rise to speculation that he may be planning to quit. Brechler, in an informal talk to Waterloo sportsmen Tuesday nignt, commented: "I thought when I heard him say it that it was the result of his keen disappointment over the outcome of the Iowa-Ohio State game. Evy often has said publicly he would not grow to be an old man coaching. However, so far as getting out of coaching this year, I don't be lieve that he means it . , , 'I hope he continues to coach for a long time, and I hope it's at Iowa." Iowa, although tied by Michi gan, suffered its only loss of the current season in a 17-13 game with Ohio State at Columbus, Ohio, last Saturday. Iowa plays Notre Dame at South Bend this Saturday in the season's finale. The Ohio State loss knocked Iowa out of the Big Ten title and Evashevski, in his weekly televi sion show, said: "A coach only got so many chances at a national title and it would have been great to bow out with a winner." Evashevski, a former Washing ton State College coach, has seven years to go on a 10-year contract at Iowa. the lightest County Fail everdistflled! tt.ssiBOUI(BDW..n what racing will do to Improve .ne quality of Mr. Average Citi zen's pleasure car.
