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.

Ohio State, ranked second be

a three-point choice over Michi

Kansas State) and third-ranked
Auburn (which plays Florida

that the odds-makers declined to
establish a line.
Oklahoma, its 47-game record

'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.

Wrong Way Back Gets Letter
From Player Who Did Same
PARAMOUNT, Calif. (UP) -
Paramount High School's end Jar.
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.

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.

LOS ANGELES (UP)-Advance

had already topped the high
figure recorded in Brooklyn, $750,

paid the rest later.

geles as a major league city," he
said.

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.
