fromfk What will happen now " ference ha broken up and drifted down the drain? There are several suggestions, several ideas an,d several proposals, but as of yet, nothing seems good enough to jell the West Coast collegiate athletic picture. The one thing we are going to be watching for is the junking of all rules and regulations that have governed the PCC, and from now on out it's every man for himself to sink or swim. And to keep from sinking, there are several who will go under, around or through the conference standards. ' now mat ine coasi conierence has been dissolved, the question of enforcing a code of ethics falls directly into the lap of the NCAA. But, as has been proven in the . past, it is easier to get away with . illegal recruiting and athletic "pad- v ding" with the NCAA than confer ences such as the PCC, Big Ten ?and other major college athletic , groups. Unless the NCAA steps in and applies the firm grip of authority on coast conference members, it might possibly turn out to be an ell out rule-breaking war. The way things stand now, who will fine or suspend a fellow opponent who breaks any rules? The Pacif ic Coast Conference is no longer an iron hand, instead it has wast- i ed away to an old torn glove with I holes in every finger, j The "Big Four" Washington, i UCLA, USC and California head j ed the break up and now have : what they wanted: To get rid of ihe smaller Northwest schools who wouldn't fill their stands during football season. But with their smiles of success must also go the worries of fielding a com plete well-rounded athletic pro gram, where football is only one part. Whatever happens, the state of Oregon will still have some very fine major college football as long ss Oregon and Oregon State Col lege continue their present athletic programs. Oregon has been the host state in the last two Rose Bowl games, and we go along with those who say this will be the third straight year. With Tommy Prothro's Beavers, it is highly possible that Oregon State will be the last Pacific Coast Conference representative in the Rose Bowl. Bowl officials maintain the game will be continued, but how the opponents will be picked re mains to be seen. But you can bet your last dollar if Oregon Isn't represented this year, it will be a long time before another Beaver state team gets there the southern "rebels" will see to that. Is there anyone who will dl agree that pitching Is 99.9 per cent of kids baseball? If so take a look at the recent regional Babe Ruth League Tour nament held here. Washington, the eventual winner, used five different pitchers in four games before calling on one boy to make his second appearance of the five-day tournament and all five were very fine hurlers. The regional winners used three right handers and a pair of lefthanders before Joe Boudeau was brought on in the sixth inning of the cham pionship game as a relief pitch er and his second appearance of the tourney. All of the other teams who were In the running failed to match up Lions Tourney Enters Semis The fourth annual Klamath Falls Lions Club City Tennis Tournament moves into the semifinal round of play at Moore Park this weekend as topseeded netter Jim Jackson meets John Bousquet in the men's singles. Earl Brooks, seeded No. 2, will face Raymond Tice, the third seed ed entrant in the other half of the bill. Jackson turned back Doug Pence, 8-1, 6-2, to earn his position while Bousquet dumped Bud Case 6-4, 6-1. Brooks defeated Mark Koche- var 6-1, 6-1 for his shot in the semis while Tice edged Dino Reg inato 2-6, 6-0, 6-1. Action yet to be completed in the second round of play includes matches between Keith Baxter and Jerry Jennings in a consolation bout; John Bousquet and Teddy Jackson in the junior men's sin gles; Gayle Case and Anita An derson in the junior girls singles and Virginia Learning vs. Eunice Anderson, also in the junior girls event. Set for the semifinals in the men's doubles is the team of Jim Jackson and Phil Jackson who whipped Bousquet and Keith Bax ter. 8-6 and 6-2. The tournament will conclude Sunday. August 17.

With the Interest In Ike major league baseball races tapering off. the rush of football Is mushroom ing. And if you don't think foot ball is close at hand, just look around. The first nationwide football in terest is billed for Friday night when the College All-Stars meet the Detroit Lions in the annual newsboys benefit game at Chica go. The game is nationally tele vised by ABC-TV, but will not be carried by local television sta tions for one reason or another. Then Saturday night, the class A" Shrine all-star game is sched uled for Portland's Multnomah Stadium. The following weekend. the pro-football game between the San Francisco 49ers and Washing ton Redskins is on at the Port land stadium while Pendleton hosts the annual class "B" Shrine all- star classic. Klamath Union High School foot ball will start with the first day oi practice set ior August a. ure gon Tech's gridiron forces will as semble for the first time Septem ber 8. Both dates are less than a month away. " " " Early in July, American track and field followers laughed when Ed Temple, coach of the touring U.S. track team, said his men and women would have a 50-50 chance to beat the Russians, and If they wouldn't beat them they would make a very good showing. Temple must have known what he was talking about. The Rus sians won the over-all meet with their American counterparts, but the Russian women didn't blow the U.S. gals off the map like a few "experts expected. The American women's team was helped out greatly by the showings made by Sharon Shep- nerd, the Sherwood, Oregon, miss who placed fourth twice and sec ond once in the shot put in three meets. Sharon is the former all- state Softball pitching star for Oak- ndge-Westfir. Oregon Tech athletic director Rex Hunsaker received a shot in the arm Tuesday from three sports-minded business houses in Klamath Falls. The Broiler (Brady Narey), The Chuck Wagon (Char lie Schuss) and the Winema Ho-i tel (Harold Hulse, manager) pro vided three tuition scholarships for prospective Oregon Tech athletes Hunsaker said these scholarships will be used for boys who need the financial assistance the most, There have been others in the past, and the Tech AD expects a few others before school starts. The Owl football boss also an nounced that he has been contact ed by a former Pacific Coast Con ference football standout who is in terested in coming to OTI this fall. Hunsaker, not disclosing the gridder's name, said the boy played regular tackle for one PCC school last fall, then went to a California junior college last spring term. The boy is expected to transfer here and be on the campus the first week of September. By the way, the statistics on the new prospect are 6-5 and 250 pounds. Nice things come in big packages, too. nirrr unmrcn cloud from Aug. 18th to Spt. 2 your Tom Captains! LANES ibaukee Tumbles; Leaders Clubbed By Bucs By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Just when Milwaukee's world champs looked to have that Na tional League pennant race under control, up pops Pittsburgh, The Pirates, usually stone cold dead at this stage, ran their win ning spurt to six games, took over second place and trimmed Mil waukee's lead to five games last night by beating the Braves 10-0. Rookie Tight-hander George Witt blanked the champs on two hits, although it wasn't as easy as it sounds. It was his second suc cessive shutout and gave the Bucs sweep of the two-game series at Pittsburgh. St. Louis skidded San Francisco to third by beating the Giants 7-3. Cincinnati belted Philadelphia 12-4 and the Chicago Cubs smacked Los Angeles 9-3. Bucs 10, Braves 0 Witt had to struggle for his- sixth victory until Frank Thomas un loaded his 29th homer with man on in the sixth off loser Bob Rush. The Bucs then put it away with eight in the eighth. Witt had little trouble with the Braves after the second inning, but the second was a pip. Frank Torre lifted a pop fly to left that fell for a double and the Braves' first hit when Bob Skinner lost it in the lights. Then Witt, who walked four, hit Johnny Lo gan with a pitch, loading the bases with one out. Rush then bunted, Witt scooped up the ball and flipped to catcher Danny Kravitz for a home-to-urst double play. That's all the Braves managed against Witt, who has lost two, until Hank Aaron doubled with two out in the ninth. The Bucs sent 12 men to bat in the big eighth. Thomas drove in his third run with a double, and Skinner tripled home two. Milwaukee 000 000 000 0 2 2 Pittsburgh 000 002 08x 10 13 0 Rush, McMahon (8) Trowbridge (8) and Crandall.
