PAGE 2 B HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 8. 1958 U of O Coach Pleads For New Life In PCC By HAL WOOD United Press International PORTLAND, Ore. 't'PIi-Coach Len Casanova of university of Oregon pleaded with Pacific Coast Conference officials today to "for give and forget, try to live under the same tent," in an effort to cave college football on the West Coast. With all signs pointing to a for mal break-up of the PCC at a meeting here this weekend. Cas anova proposed that representa tives of the schools get together and iron out their differences. "Some of the schools, I under stand, plan to go it alone as in dependents," said Casanova. "I KF Archers Collect Wins LAKEVIEW Klamath archers walked off with their share of honors In Sunday's annual invita tional shoot held by the Lakeview Bowmen in Lakeview.

College Cagers Set For TV Tilts NEW YORK (AP) College basketball will be televised na tionally on a Saturday afternoon game-of-the-week basis starting Dec. 14. The National Broadcast ing Co. said Wednesday that the college telecasts would replace the pro basketball scries which had been switched previously to Sun days. The college series will run 14 Saturdays, concluding March 21, except for Dec. 27. The schedule of games has not been drawn up, but it is believed .a conflict of time difference would rule out any Pacific Coast games as they would finish too late and Interfere with regular Saturday night shows. Cubs-Mot Giants -Surprise Of Torrid ML Pennant Race NEW YORK (NEA)-H the Gi ants are the surprise of the most unusual National League race, the Cubs are positively phenomenal. And not a few learned baseball men now will tell you that of the two, the Chicago outfit is likely to go the farthest. The Bruins are loaded with good pitching and the younger members of the staff figure to get even better. Lee Walls. Ernie Banks, Bohhy Thom son, Walt Moryn and Dale Long are power hitters. Bob Scheffing's outfit has the distinct advantage of playing 77 home games on green grass and in the afternoon sunshine. Remem ber those good old days? And then there is Alvin Dark. Every time he is traded, Dark, now 35. turns out to be a silver lining for the club landing him. "When you got down to it," says Manager Scheffing, "the Cutis' I success really began the afternoon I of May 21, when Dark checked into the hotel in Pittsburgh and came to my room. We had sent Jim Brosnan to the Cardinals for him a few hours previously. "Alvin told me he was happy at third base, assured me he was in shape to play every day. "It didn't take me long to get the idea that Alvin was on the way to the best year of his ca reer. Belore he Jammed his ankle and had to sit out for a couple of days, he hit .330 and was terrific defensively." With 22-year-old Tony Taylor at second base and the self effacing Banks playing shortstop, the Cubs wet badly in need of an asres Sive old pro to take charge oi the inliejd. coached at Pittsburgh and Santa Clara, both independent schoqls, and it's no good. You need a con ference." Casanova pointed out that the failure of the Pacific Coast Con ference and the inroads pro sports teams are making in Los Angeles and San Francisco could result in the death of college football in the West. "If you don't believe it. look at what professional sports have done to good college sports around New lork. Remember the fine football teams they used to have at Fordham and New York Uni versity? PROS STAND FIRST 'Recently I was in San Fran cisco, where they have both major league baseball and football. While there, when the subject of football was brought up, Stanford and Cal ifornia were passed over. All the interest was in the Forty Niners. College football is too fine a game to have that happen to it. And the only salvation lor the game is a conference." Casanova believes that the Pa cific Coast Conference rules of the past were too stringent. It was because of these rules that TJSC, UCLA, California and Washington decided to drop out. I think a conference that fol lows the rules of the NCAA could be worked out in the west, with the approval of most of the schools." said the coach. "In the past, the PCC had real tough rules. Some of the schools didn't follow them and therefore were fined. "So both sides were in the wrong. A little more give-and-take by both sides two years ago would have saved the situation. Maybe it s not too late. FACULTY STAY OUT It is Casanova's opinion that the school faculty members should not meddle in the affairs of the con ference. "They should be charged only with handling the eligibility," said Casanova. "After all, what do they know about athletics? "I believe the athletic directors and coaches should run the con ference. If they can't do it the way they should, then they should be fired. But they start off know ing what should be done in sports." It appears that Casanova's plea may come lale because a major ity of the schools already have announced they will vote for a dissolution of the conference. "If that comes about I fear for the collegiate football game in the West," said Casanova. "It could result in college football out here attracting crowds like the college naseoall teams do. Card-Portland Game Said SRO PORTLAND (AP) The exhi bition baseball game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Port land Beavers here Aug. 11 prom ised Wednesday to draw a near capacity crowd. Reserved seat tickets were reported nearly all sold. In addition to the game, the tion of Queen of Portland Baseball evening will be occasion for sclec- by Man Musial and his Cardinal teammates. The field of contenders will be cut to 10 Sunday in a bctwecn games selection by the Portland players. The queen contest is an other in the series of attendance promotions aimed at bolstering the slim crowds at Beaver games this season. Pitching coach Mel Harder of the Cleveland Indians had a 223- 186 record for 20 seasons with the same team. In Dark, they got one who was used to winning. Anybody in base ball can tell you that Billy South- worth, to begin with. Southworth managed the Boston variety of the Braves in 1948 and Dark, up from their Milwaukee farm, which sounds incongruous now but is factual, was his short stop. The former Louisiana State halfback had been exposed to only 15 National League games at the end of the 1946 season, but in '48 he played as though he were a 10-year man. He batted .322 and combined with Eddie Stankey to give the Hub excellent middle strength behind a pitching staff mat largely consisted of bpahn and Sain and a prayer for rain. The Braves won the pennant only to be wrecked by dissension the next season. Dark didn't fall apart wilh them and in New York. Leo Durocher, who had taken over the Giants, was yelling for "his kind of team." The Lip meant a shortstop like Dark.

BALL FARE BABE RUTH REGIONAL PLAYOFFS At Gem Stadium 4:00 Oregon vs. British Columbia 7:00 Wyoming vs. Idaho 9:0O Klamath Falls vs. Montana Stanky in one of the smartest deals ever made. In 1951, Dark was a .302 batter in the little miracle stretch drive in which the Giants came from nowhere to take it all. They won again with Dark in '54. swept the World Series with the Indians. Dark was the ultimate on t h e batting end of the hit and run. The Giants finally gave up on Dark and so did a lot of other people when he showed signs of slowing up and compounded the felony by refusing to play third bae. St. Louis was the next stop, and there Dark kept the Cardinals in the thick of things until near the end of last season.

American Thinclads Snare Nod BUDAPEST (AP) - Horace Ashenfelter first taught Ameri cans all steeplechasers aren t horses. Phil Coleman has taken it from there. Coleman is a 27-year-old teach er from Champaign, 111., who won the 3.000-meter steeplechase Tues day against a group of very good Hungarians and Czechoslovakia!):; in a track and field meet which ends Wednesday night. Americans won 11 of the 15 events Tuesday but no official point scores were kept, as at Moscow and Warsaw. Coleman s victory was the most significant for an American dis tance runner since Ashenfelter looked over his shoulder during the 1952 Olympic steeplechase at Helsinki, saw a Russian closing in and then beat the Soviet run ner in the Russian's favorite event. Coleman's triumph along with the fine distance running by Bill Dellinger, former- University of Oregon athlete now in the U. S. armed services at Neah Bay. Wash., should do much toward making their events more popu lar at home. Coleman's time over the water jump and heavy hurldcs Tuesday was 8:43.4. Dellinger, 24, is ordinarily a 5.000-meter runner. He didn't know until Tuesday he! could run the 1500 meters uhe metric milel so well. But after running 5,000 meters in 14:28.4 and 14:04.8 at Moscow and Warsaw, he decided to try the 1500. He was highly successful and set an American record of 3:41.5 rough ly equivalent to a sub-four-minutc mile of 3:59.5. "Dellinger will be giving more attention to miles races from now on." said Coach George Eastment. Dellinger's race, however, was not good enough for victory as Istvan Rozsavoelgyi of Hungary improved on his own accepted world record for 1500 meters with a 3:40.3 clocking. Top American Victories also were turned in by Glenn Davis of Columbus, Ohio, in the 400 meters with a 45.6 clocking and Earlenc Brown. Los Angeles housewife Mrs. Brown won the discus throw with a toss of 156 feet, 7.89 in. Paige Fumes. Says Adios To Miami '9' MONTREAL (UPH Leroy (Satchel) Paige, fabulous 52-year old Negro pitcher, has "hit the road and it could lead to the end of his baseball trail. Paige left his club, the Miami Marlins of the International League, Tuesday night and gener al manager Joe Ryan said: "He has departed the club. He is off the payroll. But he has not been granted his unconditional release and his contract is still the prop erty of the Miami club." Ryan refused to disclose the na ture of the dispute between Paige and the Marlins but said. "We have hopes everything will be smoothed over." Paige, believed to have been born in Mobile. Ala., -on July 7, 1906, built a brilliant reputation in Negro leagues and in exhibition games involving major league players but could never reach the majors until 1948. the year aft er Jackie Robinson broke the color line with the Brooklyn Dodgers. Although 42 years old, Paige compiled a 6-1 record for the In dians. His five-year major league rec ord showed 28 victories and 31 losses more than enough to jus tify the reputation he had made in Negro leagues.

Current estimates are that the present session of Congress will end in two or three weeks. But baseball's last-place Sena tors may not last that long. Any combination of 26 Senator losses and New York Yankee wins and the Yankees win about as often as the Senators lose means this town's team once again will be the first team eliminated from the big league pennant races.
