Oregon, Oregon State Battle
Tops Coast Conference Slate
UNIVERSITY OP OREGON,
(Special) Coach Lcn Casanova's
amazing Oregon Ducks, already
assured of a tie for the 1957 Pact
lie Coast Conference championship,
go after undisputed possession of
the coveted title at llayward Field
Saturday when they .play the de
fending champion Oregon btate
Beavers in the annual homecom
ing game.
The Webfoots have a one game
, lead going into the game on the
basis of their 6-1 record while the
Beavers are in second place with
a 5-2 mark in conference action,
A win for the Ducks would wrap
up the title while a Beaver vic
tory would throw the final stand'
ings into a tic.
The Oregon squad will also be
shooting at another victory over
the Beavers to keep intact the
record of never having lost to the
Beavers since the current team
started as freshmen. Two years
ago, after winning in their year
ling season, the Ducks won 28 0 at
llayward Field and then last year
the Ducks upset the Beavers in a
14-14 tie at Corvalhs.
This will be the second straight
season the game between the an
dent rivals has been televised and
the telecast will be carried by the
National Broadcasting System with
Chick I learn as t h e announcer,
The full Oregon radio network will
also carry the game with Bob
Blackburn as the pluy-by-play an-
noucer.
Oregon's stout defense, the best
in the PCC after nine games, and
Oregon State's brilliant running
game are expected to collide head-
on and the outcome of the game
may rest on the Wcbfoot's ability
to stop the talents of tailback Joe
Francis, wingbacks Sterling Ham-
mack and fullback Nub ucamer.
Oregon's own offense has pro
duced a real scoring punch behind
the running of halfbacks Jim Shan
ley and Charley Tmirville and full
back Jack Morris. Quarterback
Jack Crahtrec has also come into
his own this season and provided
an excellent change of paco for
the runners with his accurate pass
ing. Shanlcy has already broken all
Oregon career rushing records and
Morris is now in third place in
the all-time standings. Shanley
goes into the game with a mark
of 17!I2 yards lor 29' games and
Morris has rushed for 1618 in the
same number of contests.
This will be the final game for
11 of the seniors at llayward Field
who were a major factor in pull
ing the Webfoots from a predicted
.seventh-place finish to a shot at
the undisputed championship and
an almost certain Hose Bowl bid.
Shanley, Morris and Crnbtree

Auburn Top
Grid Squad
In Defense
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
When you talk defense in major
college football this season you
pronounce it Auburn.
The Tigers, one of two remain
ing unbeaten, untied clubs among
the major schools, simply are the
best in the best year for dense
the college game has had in quite
a spell.
Auburn is tops in total defense,
permitting just .131.8 yards a
game, and No. 1 in rushing de
fense, giving up only 76.4 yards
a game, again in this week's
statistics released Thursday by
by the National Collegiate Athle
tic Bureau.
And if figures leave you cold,
try this for size:
Only one . major college team
failed to gain at least 100 yards
in toial ollcnse last weekend. The
team that didn't make it was
Georgia held to 97 yards (74
rusning. 23 passing) as Auburn
defeated the Bulldogs 6-0.
Notre Dame s upset of Ok aho-
ma also was a highlight of the
return to defense by the colle
gians this season. The Irish held
Oklahoma to 145 yards in total
offense, the lowest any Bud Wilk
inson-coached squad has managed,
and the lowest for the Sooners
since Texas Christian shut them
off with 100 in 1046.
Auburn also is tops in scoring
defense, allowing 21 points in
eight games for a 2.6 average.
None of the opponents have
cracked the Tiger line for a TD.
It Auburn can keep that record
going against Florida State and
Alabama, it will be the first club
to do it in the current decade.
Texas A & M. knocked out of
the unbeaten ranks last week by
n Rice team that stayed on the
ground, is the only major school
unscored on by passing. Georgia
Tech is the leading pass defense
club, however, leading with a
37.1-ynrd-a-game average.
Punting is the only weak sister
in the defensive statistics, with
no team averaging 40 yards
the first time that has happened
in 12 years.

STORES CLOSED
Most of the Merrill merchants
will be closed Saturday afternoon
from 1 to 3:45 during the Merrill
Stanfield slate semi-final football
games mean nothing. Anyone
making a bet and giving more
than one point in either direction
just hasn't looked at the facts as
presented by history.
For instance, when Coach Lynn
(Pappy) Waldorf was taking three
California teams in a row to the
Rose Bowl in 47-48-49, the Golden
Bears always were heavily fav
ored over Stanford in the tradi
tional battle, usually by 13 to 20
points. So Cal wins the first one
21-18; the second, 7-6. The last
time USC went to the Rose Bowl
(after the 1954 season), UCLA
gave the Trojans' a send-off with
a 34-0 shellacking. And Oregon lost
four games before playing last
year's Oregon State Rose Bowl
team to a 14-14 tie.
So take a look at these "big
game" selections but don't bet on
'em:
Stanford over California: Coach
Pete Elliott is getting his first
taste of "big game" fever, and
he can't figure why 90,000 fans
would want to see his club with a
1-8 record, play Stanford, which
has 5-4. If the Indians kick the
extra point, it could be 21-20.
Oregon over Oregon State: On
the premise that one point will
decide it, we'll take the bowl
bound Webfoots on the strength of
Jack Morris' kicking excellence.
How about 14-13?
UCLA over Southern California:
The West's greatest coach, Red
Sanders, has a 5-3 mark against
the Trojans and off the records
the Bruins should win' bv about
20 points. We'll say 19-18.
Washington over Washineton
State: Played on the Huskies'
home ground, Washington has the
finest set of fancy-stepping backs
in the conference. Next problem is
10 siop me passing of the Coug
ars" Bob Newman. By 27-26.
Also: Lai Poly over San Fran
cisco State by 20; Fresno State
over Hawaii by 13; Whittier over
Redlands by six, Pomona-Clare-
mont over Occidental by one and
Arizona ITempe) State over COP
by 20.

Walt Byars
CHICAGO W-Kid Gavilan Is
showing signs of rust but his
fighting instinct still has plenty of
ponsn.
The former welterweight cham
pion, who at 31 wants to regain
the title, craftily won a unani
mous decision over Boston's Walt
Byars last night in a 10-roundcr
televised nationally from Chicago
Stadium.
Byars, 25. was in a purple rage
in the sixth round, complaining
to Referee Frank Sikora that the
Cuban Kid had struck a low blow.
It looked for a minute as if Byars
woum iear into Gavilan in an
gered frenzy.
This he did at the start of the
seventh, and the Kid cooled him
off with a change of tactics. He
started left-jabbing him and the
former Marine featherweieht
champion of the Korean campaign
coum not score ertectivoly.
Gavilan fought his stubby oppo
nent wisely wim a pressing body
attack most of the time, and al
though many of his blows were
blocked inside, enough were
jammed through to pile up points.
Byars, who pushed the Kid
away in a gesture of disgust after
the bell ended the sixth round,
appeared to be jeering the former
cnamp throughout the ninth. It
seemed to rile Gavilan, who
missed Byars head with several
shots after the bell. The referee
had to step in and send them to
their corners.
Byars indicated his contempt of
Gavilan after the fight when he
said: "The guy isn't going any
where. He doesn't compare with
oilier contenders.
Gavilan outweighed his foe '151
to 146 pounds.

TIME OUT
That's the way It goes! Some
days you'll tramp miles without
seeing anything to shoot!"
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Waterfowl hunting is slackening
off somewhat in Oregon.
In the northwest section or Ore
gon, the state Game Commission
said in its weekly hunting report,
waterfowl gunning at Sauvie Is
land was off as water dropped,
limiting hunting space.
If clear weather continues tnis
weekend, waterfowl should move
into corn patches. General pros
pects for the weekend are poor
unless a change in weather oc
curs.
In the Southwest, hunting has
been poor in the Coos Bay
Coquillc valley area but should
improve as birds are arriving
daily. Water in the Coquille Val
ley has risen to the point where
birds are now beginning to use
that area.
Duck hunting is good at both
upper and lower Klamath Lake in
Central Oregon. The Klamalh
game management area is fair
Goose hunting is generally poor in
the Klamath Basin, good on
Sprague River and the Indian
Reservation.
Waterfowl hunting is improving
near Boardman and along the Co
lumbia River in Northeastern
Oregon. And good success has
been reported near Hermiston in
cornfields. Ducks are scarce in
Grant County. But many ducks
and geese are near McKay and
Cold Springs reservoirs. Ducks
are moving into the Grande Ronde
Valley.
Hunting is poor in the Malheur
shooting grounds of Southeastern
Oregon. The Jordan Valley is
good to excellent for ducks and
fair for geese. The Snake River
poor to fair for duck hunting
and fair hunting is being had on
the Malheur River from Ontario
to Harper.
Meanwhile the commission re
ported upland game bird hunters
enjoyed one of the most success
ful seasons for several years.
Incomplete data on pheasants
show an average of almost one
bird per hunter compared with
.74 last year.
Elk hunting is expected to be
fair this weekend in the Bear
Creek, Little Potamas and Five-
mile region of Morrow County.
Some snow has fallen at higher
elevations. Roads are passable
but chains are required.
The either sex area of Wheeler
County has been poor. Snow has
brought some movement of elk
into the lower elevations of Grant
County. Some of the better areas
nre Big Creek. Indian Creek.
Battle Creek. Bruin Creek and
Bully Creek. Elk are moving down
in the Blue Mountains due to
heavy snow. Road conditions are
bad.

NEW YORK W-Tom Greene of
Holy Cross and Lee Grosscup of
utan, statistically two of the lead
ing ground-gainers in maior col
lege football, are among more
than two dozen players under con
sideration for backfield positions
on the 19o7 All-America team.
The regional boards which have
scrutinized the nation's leading
teams throughout the season' to
day listed the possibilities.
With two games still left on the
schedule for many of the leading
teams, the lists submitted this
week may undergo radical
changes.
Greene and Grosscup, both T
formation quarterbacks, have reg
istered most of their gains by
passing. Greene has accounted for
a total of 1,323 yards in eight
games, Grosscup, 1,231 in nine.

recurring injuries, was the role
that senior center Frank Kuchta
emerged from to spearhead a

ors. ,
"Sure, it was the best game
I've ever played at Notre Dame."
said the 6-3. 205-pound Kuchta alt
er he was told of his selection.
"But there were six other guys
in that forward wall. And as far
as I'm concerned they could have
picked all seven Notre Dame
starting linemen for the honor."
For his terrific offensive and de
fensive play that shattered Okla
homa's 47-game winning skein,
Kuchta gained the nod from the
weekly AP poll of sports writers
and broadcasters.
A pair of hard-hitting Notre
Dame guards, James Schaaf and
Al Ecuyer, also drew praise for
their work against the Sooners.
Kuchta. whose home is in Cleve
land, said he was "tremendously
excited" over his selection.
"Why, I haven't played a whole
game or a major part of it for
some time. I understand I played
aoout 4a minutes in mv first start
ing assignment all year last Satur
day , he asserted.
"I've had knee trouble through
out my football days at Notre
Dame. As a sophomore two years
ago, I was out all year with a
knee injury. Last year, I won a
letter and even started a few
games. But I was quickly pulled,
playing a few minutes in each
game.
"This September, I had knee
trouble, missed the Purdue game,
and sat on the bench until the
Oklahoma game. 1 finally got my
starting shot and made the most
of it. It was a great one to win."

Martin Angry
Over Trade
KANSAS CITY. Mo., (UP) -Billy
Martin, chagrined at the
trade that switched him from the
Kansas City Athletics to the De
troit Tigers, said today the deal
should include some money for
Martin.
Describing the trade as one that
"got everybody happy but me,"
the inficlder admitted it was
"great to be a contender again"
but insisted that the Athletics
should "fork over some dough to
me."
"This may be pretty strong talk
for a .251 hitter," said Martin,
"but they say six clubs were after
me and if that's so, I must be
pretty valuable."
The fiery Martin, once Casey
Stengel's "boy" of the New Y'ork
Yankees, declared "everybody in
the majors is worth at least the
$10,000 waiver price and if I was
the key man in the trade that's
made everybody happy, I think I
ought to get something, too."
George Selkirk, the A's play per
sonnel director, said the club was
under no obligation to pay Martin
in the trade.
"It's in his contract that he's
got to play in any town he's con
tracted to," said Selkirk.

Giants Expect Big
Increase In Crowds
SAN FRANCISCO Wi The
transplanted Giants expect to dou

California baseball quarters in
1958.
Ticket Manager Pete Hoffman
predicted Thursday the attendance
at the former Seals Stadium
23.000 capacity would hit 1.250,
000 by the time the ex-New York
ers finish their first season here.
This year's final season at t h e
Polo Grounds twice as large
drew 633,000, Hoffman said.
Although ticket prices are high
er than they were in New York,
Hoffman said orders are pour
ing in for the April IS opener with
the Los Angeles Dodgers, also
transplanted this year. In fact, he
said he could sell 100,000 tickets
for that one.
Twenty-two of the season's first
23 games will be played at home
for an extended San Francisco
welcome, from the opener through
May 11. The only break will be a
three-game set at Los Angeles at
the tag end of the season's first
week.
The Giants, after returning here
from Los Angeles, play St. Louis,
Chicago, Philadelphia and Pitts
burgh plus a second series with
Los Angeles.
There are 21 night games
the 77-game home schedule and
two doubleheaders, on May 4
against Pittsburgh and July 4
against Chicago.
The Labor Day, Sept. 1 holiday
calls for separate morning and
afternoon games. Hoffman said
this arrangement was decided on
because of anticipated extra big
crowds.
