Officials in t'ae Pacific Coast southland are doing a
good job of hushing up the recent UCLA vs. University of
California battle royal over illegal recruiting. But before
the door was completely closed on the matter, a few
southern sports writers, who for the past few years have
been feasting on the Northwest schools, got in a couple of
good licks.
UCLA's head football coach George Dickerson roared
into the office of Cal coach Pete Elliott a couple of weeks
ago charging the. Berkeley campus with trying to lure
away a prospective Uclan. This unscheduled meeting
brought about charges and counter-charges that rocked the Pacific
Coast with a real fine "family tight."
Hank Hollingworth and Bob Kelley of the Long Beach Press
Telegram broke out this week with some pointed remarks directed at
Dickerson, who had the head coaching job at UCLA less than a week
after the death of Red Sanders when the trouble brewed.
Says Hollingworth in his column
"Sports Merry-Go-Round": "His
(Dickerson) ridiculous storming of
the California garrison at Berke
leywherein he took apart the
Golden Bear recruiting agency
for a practice that UCLA and ev
ery other major university has
been doing for years is an un
precedented action.
. Hollingworth goes on: "The crazy
part of this whole tangle is that
Dickerson has been a head foot
ball coach only a few days. What
right has such a neophyte leader
to vent his wrath upon another
university especially when the so-
called nefarious practices of which
he accuses that university have
been part and parcel of his own
school's football resurgence?"
From Kelley's "Bob Kelley
Says": "I can't believe Dickerson
cooked up the entire 'Invasion El
liott' himself. He is a sounder man
than to pull a trick so far be
neath the dignity of a head foot
ball coach.
"It is my guess that Sam the
Bruin Publicity Man poured a lit
tle coal on the fire. Sam is a per
ennial UCLA sophomore, whose
zeal for his alma mater usually
outweighs his good judgment."
Kelley also raps Dickerson's pub
lic relation education after George
took one newsman with him on his
trip, and left six' others at home.
"I like George Dickerson," Kel
ley says, "but for his own good.
'Red-White'
Battle Ends
In 13-13 Knot
Klamath Falls football fans got
preview of things to come dur
ing the 1958 Klamath Union High
football schedule as the Pelicans,
split into two teams, battled to a
13-13 tie in the annual Red and
White game on Modoc Field Sat
urday night.
The Whites, coached by Jim
Inglesby, broke the scoring Ice in
the first period as sophomore
quarterback Jack Riley counted
from the five on a sneak and John
Hancock, newly converted to a
fullback, booted the try for point.
The Reds, under the direction of
Jack Peterson, narrowed the gap
in the second quarter as the strong
right arm of quarterback Blake
Griggs fired a pair of consecu
' live strikes that were good for a
total of 55 yards and culminated
in a touchdown as Estin K i g e r
hauled down the last one in the
end zone.
. In the fourth quarter the Whites
stretched their margin as halfback
Eon Olvera scooted around the
right end for a six-p!ter after

One more parting Item on
Dickerson, who Is still resting up
from a "nervous upset" earlier
this past week.
From a UCLA publication intro

comes this one sentence which
describes him: "He is the 'quiet

are inexpensive
repeated dally Me
noon session billed for 3:30. For
the remainder of the week, Hun
saker and his aides line coach
George Miller and backfield
coach Ralph Carr have planned
to use two-a-day workouts with
evening meetings scheduled for
chalk talks.
Hunsaker reported he expects
at least 50 boys to draw gear
this afternoon, 15 of these be
ing returning lettermen from last
year's squad and several other
top-notch junior college standouts
who are transferring here this fall.
A few other prospects may check
in later this week and could swell
the number of the turnout to BO,
one of the largest opening week
groups to assemble at the Mile
High Campus.
While Hunsaker willingly admits
this could be "the year," he re
serves comment that the Owls are
also tackling the toughest schedule
ever undertaken by a OTI squad,
For the first time in Oregon Tech's
10-year football .history, the Owls
will not face a single junior col
lege opponent. This year, t h e
Tech schedule is loaded with all
four-year schools and service
teams.
While Hunsaker is pleased with
the player personnel, he is wary
of tackling such major independent
schools as Westminster and Whit
tier, the four other Oregon Col
legiate Conference members and
three service teams the caliber
of Hamilton Air Base, Moffit Air
Base and Malstrom Air Base.
These nine games, five of which
are scheduled for Modoc Field, arc
undoubtedly the toughest ever as
sembled for one season by OTI.
Leading the way through this
afternoon's equipment issue will
be last year s team captain and
all-conference guard Allan Jones.
Back with Jones will be another
all-conference guard, Frank Wil
son. Other lettermen linemen in
clude centers Armund Mayzell and
Ralph Norgaard guard Gary
Wirth. tackles Jack Bitzer, Dick
Hill and Ralph Jones and ends
Dale McCulloch and Norman Hoop
Returning backfield veterans are
quarterback Charlie Gantcr and
fullback Bel'on Ollison, a pair ol
two year letter winners, and half
backs At "Tiger Everson and Al
lan Leach.
Except for halfback Rich Paka-
la, Hunsaker could field last year s
starting lineup. Ten of last sea
son s 11 starters will be back in
cluding Hooper and McCulloch at
end, Wilson and Jones at guard,
Mayzell at center and Hill and
Bitzer at tackle. In the back
field during the 1957 season was
Gantcr at quarter, Everson at half
and Ollison at fullback.
A fact that pleases Hunsaker at
this time is that several of these
returning lettermen will be facing
tough fights in keeping their num
ber one rating. Several of the in
coming junior college transfers are
expected to give thp holdover let
termen lots of competition for the
starting jobs. All of which makes
for good team moral and hustle.
Hunsaker is pointing to this year
to bring his over-all coaching rec
ord at OTI above the .500 level.
Hunsaker, who has been head foot
ball coach at Oregon Tech since
1950, has won 34, lost 37 and tied
two in eight years of directing
the Owls. A winning season with
this year s edition of the Owls
could push his record above the
50-50 split.
The all-time Oregon Tech record,
for nine completed years, is 36-42-
3. Most of the games played the
past nine seasons have been
against four-year schools while
Tech has been classed as a junior
college, or two-year institution.
The Oregon Tech Owl Hoots
booster club, is handling the ad
vance season ticket sale. So far
the response has been very good
and an increase is expected with
in the next two weeks prior to
the Tech opener September 20
against Westminster at Salt Lake
City. The first home game for
the Owls is set for September 27,
against Hamilton Air Base, one of
the top-ranked service teams in
the nation.
The season tickets this year arc
being sold as an "all-sports" tick
et. This ticket includes a reserved
seat during lootball season and ad
mission to all OTI home sporting
events during the 1958-59 school
year. The price of the ticket is
$12.50, a savings of $7.50 on just
football and basketball games
alone. Tickets can be purchased
by phoning Hunsaker at TU 2-3466.

came the highest derby dog in the
history of national field trials with
5a points lor the year. The old
record, set last year, was 55.
Megs entered this trial with 53
points and needed a first or sec
ond to break the record and a
third to tie. Saturday morning
Dashnaw completed the Derby
stake competition ahead of the
field of 15 other dogs. So far, this
year, Dashnaw s Chesapeake has
entered in 18 trials, placed among
the first four in 17 of these and
out of this number has won eight.
