FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 22. 1957 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE THIRTEEN Grid Traditionals Set All Over Nation By FRANK LITSKV L'ntted Press Sports Writer Four major conference football championships will be decided Sat urday, but they may be overlooked by fans watching a bunch of those no-holds-barred "old rivalry" games that pack a whole season's drama into one game. At stake are crowns in the Pa cific Coast, Atlantic Coast, Mis souri Valley, and Ivy League con ferences. But even in some of these, it's the game itself and not the title that will produce most of the ex citement. Oregon vs. Oregon Mate, for instance, will settle the PCC champion and Duke will be shoot ing for the ALU crown in its game against North Carolina. But win ning over an old foe means more than winning a league crown, es pecially since Oregon and Duke already nave lanaea dowi oerins. One of the headliners, of course, is the "granddaddj" of all tradi tion games, Yale vs. Harvard, which once again has nothing but glory and the "Big Three" title at stake. Another highlight is the always rugged battle between Iowa and Notre Dame. Although Ohio State dethroned Iowa as Big Ten cham pion last week, the Hawkeyes are seven-point tavontes over Notre Dame for the men who make the odds feel the Irish must suffer a letdown after their startling 7-0 up set victory over Oklahoma. Oregon, which plays Ohio State in the Rose Bowl in five weeks is an even-money bet against Ore gon State. Duke, looking forward to its Orange Bowl clash with Ok lahoma, is a seven-point lavorue over North Carolina, but North Carolina State, like Duke unbeaten but tied in conference play, is one-point choice over South Caro lina and can back into the cham pionship if Duke loses. The Dartmouth - Princeton win ner will take Ivy League honors with Princeton a three-point choice. Houston rates a seven point edge over Tulsa and a vic tory would keep the Missouri Val ley Conference championship at Houston. Rice and Tennessee, each Taylor Quits Indian Mentor Post For Director Position STANFORD, Calif. (UP) The hunt was on today for a new foot ball coach at Stanford where Charles (Chuckl Taylor, the aging "boy coach" of the Indians, will take over as assistant athletic di rector. Taylor, who had denied earlier this month that he would leave the team to move up the front office ladder, reversed his field Thursday by accepting the new job as assistant to Athletic Di rector AT"Masters.' The title becomes official next Feb. 1. In the meantime, Taylor has the "Big Game" coming up this Saturday with California and apparently has stolen a leaf from the book of Lynn (Pappy) Wald orf, former Bear coach. For it was on the eve of last year's' Cal-Stanford game that Waldorf announced he was leav ing the Bears after coaching them for 10 seasons. Cal drove to a 20 18 upset. Russians To Clash With Canadian Team TORONTO (UP) Russia's best amateur hockey players will launch their North American ex hibition tour tonight by playing the Whitby Dunlops, Canada's Al lan Cup champions, before a packed house at Maple Leaf Gar dens. Most Canadian fans had viewed the arrival of the Russians with a tongue-in-cheek condescension. But that was before they saw the Reds in action. The Soviet team, with an aver age age in the early twenties, turned out for a practice session at Maple Leaf Gardens the after noon of their arrival. The reactions from sports writ ers and hockey experts ranged from glowing praise of the Rus sins' obvious mastery of skating, passing and stick-handling to the stunned "wow" of the public. .Colds Hurt Colt Squad BALTIMORE, Wv- Respiratory infections are giving the Balti more Colts a mid-week battle which may have an important bearing on their important Na tional Football League clash here Sunday with the San Francisco 49ers.

Ohio State, ranked second be hind Michigan State by the United Press Board of Coaches, is only a three-point choice over Michi gan. Michigan State (which plays Kansas State) and third-ranked Auburn (which plays Florida State) are such strong favorites that the odds-makers declined to establish a line. Oklahoma, its 47-game record winning streak now only a line in the record book, tries to start a new one against Nebraska, which has beaten only Kansas State this year. Oklahoma is favored by 28 points. In regionally televised games East Yale favored by 14 points over Harvard. Midwest Iowa at Notre Dame. Midlands Missouri favored by one point over Kansas. South North Carolina at Duke Southwest Baylor favored by one point over Southern Methodist. Far West Oregon State at Oregon.

'We had hoped to have Taylor's services as head football coach. for many years to come," said Stanford President J. Wallace Sterling. "But he has decided to give up coaching as a career. We respect his decision ana count Stanford fortunate in being able to keep him on the Farm as as sistant director of athletics." Taylor has been rumored in line for Masters' job ever since the veteran athletic director began ail ing last Winter. But Masters dis counted all talk of anything like that being in the works. "During a recent spell of 111 health, the rumor started that I was going to drop the reins but there is no truth to it,"- Masters said Friday after hailing Taylor's appointment. The redheaded Taylor, who starred at guard with Stanford's Rose Bowl "Wow Boys" of 1940, heads into the California game with a record of 39 wins, 29 losses and two ties in his seven seasons as the Indians' head coach. During the past two years the team has shaped up as a Rose Bowl contender then faded with a lot of the trouble stemming from an inability to convert touch downs. Stanford is 5-4 so far this year. Pete Kmelovic, a halfback on the same 1940 Stanford team which downed Nebraska in the Rose Bowl, has been mentioned as the most likely to succeed his old teammate if ever there were a turnover. Pete now is Taylor's number one assistant. Taylor was in the Navy for three years during World War II then put in a season as lineman with the Miami Seahawks of the now defunct AU-America Confer ence. He then returned to Stanford where he coached the frosh to three undefeated seasons although one game ended in a tie. Then followed a one year stint as line coach with the San Fran cisco Forty Niners after which he took over as head coach at Stan ford in 1951 at the age of 31. That was also his greatest year. The Tribe finished 9-1 and went into the Rose Bowl where it was beaten by Illinois, 40-7.

Banringa, who ran the wrong wa for a 9-7 loss to Centennial las', weekend, received a letter of con solation Thursday from a man who lost a Rose Bowl game for the University of California with the same mistake. The letter was trom Roy Rie- gels, who made a wrong-way run on New Year's Day of 1929 for Kubek Slated ForHotpatch NEW YORK (UP)-Jerry Cole man's elevation to the New York Yankees' front office today paved tne way tor manager Casey Sten gel to go through with his "pet project" changing Tony Kubek into a shortstop. Such a move also will involve making the versatile Gil McDoug ald, who was the Yankees' regu lar shortstop the last year and a half, into the team's regular second-baseman. A second-baseman by trade, the 29-year-old McDoug ald has starred at every infield position except first base since joining the Yankees in 1951. A Y'ankee spokesman indicated advance knowledge of what was on Stengel's mind Thursday when he said Coleman's retirement as a player put Bobby Richardson "in line to be the team's second-baseman unless Stengel has some play er switches in mind." Stengel himself has made it pretty clear he has some "switch es in mind. And one of them is known to be converting Kubek, the 21-year-old native of Milwaukee who played five positions in his rookie campaign, into a regular shortstop. Kubek switched about at Stenc- el s discretion with an amazu: degree of adaptability this year- an amazing: but general manager George Weiss is known to believe crit icism of Stengel on just that point was justified. It was Kubek's er ror at third that paved the way for the Braves' big four-run rally in the decisive game of the World Series and Weiss believes such a fine young player should be an chored at one position and not switched about arbitrarily. , In adding Coleman to the front office staff, the Yankees are re taining one of the most respected men in baseball. Forthright to a fault, Coleman was a defensive star who swung a light but dan gerous bat. He hit .304 in this year's Series and in 1950 was voted the outslanding player of the Yankees' four-game sweep over the Philadelphia Phillies. Moreno Belts Ike Chestnut LOS ANGELES (UP) Mexico's Ricardo (Pajarito) Moreno, a re puted murderous puncher, upset the world's second ranking feath erweight. New York's Ike Chest nut, Thursday night when he was awarded a knockout victory at the end of the sixth round of a sched uled 10 round bout in Olympic Au ditorium. Moreno, a 10-7 underdog, thrilled a partisan crowd of some 10,000 fans at the Olympic Auditorium when he ripped continuous left hooks and right crosses into Chest nut's body and head. Chestnut suffered a cut on the left cheekbone in the third round and it grew worse as the fight progressed, streaming blood pro fusely. After a consultation with the ring physician, Dr. Robert Rocke. referee Tommy Hart signalled the contest had ended after the bell had rung ending the sixth round. PLAN FLORIDA CAMP KANSAS CITY. Mo. (UP)-The Kansas City Athletics, who train in Florida, will also establish their minor league training center there next spring. The A's minor league players trained at Huntsville.

Banringa ran 55 yards to the vrong end zone after iptp-"--'1"-:i pass. He scored a touchdown ater m tne game but it uu ;ood. Riegels, now a Woodland, Calif.. jusinessman, told Banringa: "Don't let one bad run spoil your lile or even your enjoyment of the football season. So you made a mistake. They make a lot of them in football. After all. you were playing to win. And you must be a pretty good player or you wouldn't be in there doing a job. "For many years Ive had to go along and laugh whenever my wrongway run was brought up. even though I've grown tired of listening and reading about it. "But it certainly wasn't the most serious thing in the world. I re gretted doing it, even as you do, but you'll get over it. "Let's get together in four or five years when you've won your college block and we 11 have a good laugh together. Dodger Sales Near Million LOS ANGELES (UP)-Advance sales of tickets for the Dodgers' first season in Los Angeles may be nearing the million dollar mark the ball club's vice president, Buz- zy Bavasi, indicated today. Bavasi, who returned from New York Thursday, said advance sales continued to amaze him and had already topped the high figure recorded in Brooklyn, $750, 000. "Los Angeles fans are paying in lull, too." the Dodger official said. "In Brooklyn, most fans put down just a deposit at first, then paid the rest later. 1 m completely sold on Los An geles as a major league city," he said. Bavasi remarked that he and Dodger President Walter O' Malley were "pleasantly astounded" when they read that 102.000 persons had attended a recent Rams-49er game in Memorial Colisum here. "Of course, we don't expect to get that many for our games," he said, "but I feel sure we'll do real well here. There are more good fans here than anyone realized. Bavasi said he planned to meet today with Bill Nicholas, manag er of the Coliseum, and Jim Smith preident of the Coliseuum Com mission to discuss use of the giant stadium by the ball club during the 1958 season. The Dodger vice president said several player deals are being considered and he hoped an an nouncement would be forthcoming afler he meets with officials of other clubs at a major - minor meeting at Colorado Springs next month.
