Oregon comes off a 6-0 loss to Willamette U Tangles With 1957 Winner By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ( Willamette Saturday night will meet the football team that did -it out of the Northwest Conference title last season. ine outcome ot this years game with Linfield may be a great deal different, for Willam ette is loaded with veterans and currently is ranked No. 2 among the nation s small colleges by the KA1A. Both teams will carry 1-0 con ference records uito the game. But Willamette has been tagged .the favorite. Why? . For one thing, Willamette lost only fullback Vic Backlund from .last year's starting squad, and has a big line and a speedy back- field led by Stan Solomon, who has averaged seven yards a carry this year. Linlield. by comparison, lost eight regulars. But the McMinn ville school still has Sel Spray, one of the conference's best run ners, at fullback. Willamette probably will get added impetus from the memory of what happened last year, when it met Linlield in the season's final game. The conference title was at slake, and Linfield won it with a crushing 27-14 victory. The only other conference game will match Lewis and Clark against winless College of Idaho - Saturday at Caldwell. It will be the conference debut i for both squads. Lewis and Clark 1 is favored mainly on the 'strength of a 60-13 victory over ' Southern Oregon last weekend. The other two conterence mem bers step out for non-league games: Pacific against Pacific Lutheran at Tacoma, and Whit man against Oregon College of Education at Monmouth. New Gridder Oregon Kicker j EUGENE (AP)-The University iof Oregon, lacking a dependable 'place-kicker since the graduation of fullback Jack Morris, may have one to use against Southern Cali fornia. j He is Jim Clarke of Independ ence, Ore., who kicked 16 con Isocutive placements for Oregon .Siale College as a sophomore in .1956.

California stopped J i m Sutherland's WSC team in i t s tracks last week and Bobby New man and group will be fired up for the Vandals. At Stanford, new Coach Jack Curtice will be looking for vic tory No. 1. He'll have senior Bob Nicolet back in action at quar terback and veteran tloel Fries at end, but he'll need more than this pair to stop the Huskies. They upset Minnesota and out played but lost by only a touch down to Ohio State. Newman was the No. 2 passer in the country last year. Califor nia gets the No. 1 man Saturday. He's Lee Grosscup who broke California Paul Larson's NCAA pass completion record only to see it broken by Southern Method ist's Don Meredith on the last weekend of the year.

Besides Wallen, the other pen alized seniors are tackle Bill Leeks, tailback Don Long, quar terback Steve Gertsman, guard Clint Whitfield and center Dick Butler. All probably will start against Florida.

The Hornets have played their first two conference games minus the services of from two to three each game. From left to right, they are halfback Lawrence Lugo, fullback Phil Swisher, quarterback Gary Bebber and halfback Burrell Gober. Ready to snap the ball is all-conference center Joe Tacchini. St. Andrews Honors Jones. Now Freeman ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (APi The Old Lady of St. Andrews I has shown her teeth to the world's amateur golfers this week but she showed a smile for Bobby Jones Thursday night. The Old Lady the Old Course once treated the legendary Jones in the same way she treat ed golfers like Iceland's Sven Ar seeksson, Austria's Attilio Smec chia and Portugal's Jose De Sou sa Melo in the first two rounds of Army, Navy, MSU In 3-Way Earthquake SOUTH BEND, Ind. NEA Seismographs in faraway places should detect the earth shaking in the triangle running from South Bend in upper Indiana through East Lansing and lower Michigan to Ann Arbor on Saturday. Three tremendous football games are to be played within these few miles, and this handi cappcr likes Army by two touch downs at Notre Dame, Michigan State over Pittsburgh and Navy in an ulcer-manufacturer at Michigan. In Red Blaik's own words. Army was positively too good to be true smacking South Carolina and through the first half against Penn State, 1 rolling up more than 500 yards from scrimmage against each and completing nine consecu tive passes in the first 30 minutes against a topnotch class of Nit tany Lions. And a swift defense matched the attack. Army had Notre Dame on the run a year ago, when Coach Blaik let the advantage get away start ing with a Nick Pielrosante run as a rather mediocre second team de fended late in the third quarter. But the ND defense may be a vastly different dish than the ones put up by South Carolina and Penn State. The key to the con clusion of this series between the Irish and the Cadets could be rather simple. The ND line racked up Don Meredith. Southern Meth odist's remarkable passer. Joe Caldwell. Army s counter part of .Meredith, stands six feet but weighs little more than lfiO pounds. He is a prime candidate to be led away early or shaken badly enough to impair his ettect iveness. The West Point hope in this case would be sophomore Frank Blanda, who moved from fourth to second string last week. Regardless of how well the Celts close in on the quarterback inn ball-handlers, it is the hunch here that Army will continue be ing too good to be true. With its slickest quarterback. Ivan Toncic. sidelined, Pittsburgh had something in the way of an excuse at Minnesota, and proved its gamenpss coming from behind to nip the Gophers. Michigan State meanwhile was having the blazes scared out of it. and limped off licking wounds despite the fact that the Spartans drove 97 yards to tie injury-riddled Michigan. Pittsburgh is rich in material, hut Michigan State is even deeper and the close shave against Mich igan should wake up Duffy Daugh erty's multiple offense enough to repulse the Panthers. Michigan can't be expected to sustain the momentum it had against Michigan State for suc cessive weeks. Navy has been coasting and bringing along com parativcly green hands with large potential, so it s the Midshipmen at Ann Arbor. In Big Ten matches. Wisconsin has loo much get-up-and-go for Purdue, surprising Northwestern is picked to keep moving against Minnesota, 'Ohio State will dem onstrate ils might at Illinois and Iowa won't be caught relaxing against Indiana. The 53rd renewal of the Oka- homa-Texas carnival in the spa cious Dallas Cotton Bowl has been sold out since the first week of September. Texas hasn't beaten Oklahoma since 1851 and the frightened moments the Sooners suifcred against plucky Oregon isn't going to help the Longhorns break the spell. On the Pacific Coast the picks are UCLA over Florida, Southern California over Oregon and Wash ington over Stanford. In the South, it's Miami of Coral Gables over Louisiana State, Ten nessee over Georgia Tech, Auburn over Kentucky, North Carolina over South Carolina. Clemson over Vanderbilt, Mississippi over Til lane and exciting Virginia over Virginia Tech. In the East, the selections arc Dartmouth over Brown, Syracuse over Cornell and Princeton over Pennsylvania, while under-ptibli cized Rutgers takes Richmond in stride while Yale bounces back against Columbia the same way But always remember that col lege boys are up one week and down another and the return of one or two of the more accom plished operatives can change the entire complexion of things. Fight! the 72-hole World Amateur Cham pionship. Arsceksson includes 105 in his score. Melo has a 104 ana smec- chia 100. They found new hope Thursday after hearing Jones tell of his ex perience over the Old Course on his visit here 37 years ago. Jones tore up his card after playing 10'j Holes. He came back in 1027, con quered the Old Course and never lost a championship on it.

UCLA Coach Sent To Bed, No Coaching LOS ANGELES (LTD -Coach George Dickerson. 45, named to succeed the-late Henry (Red San ders as head football coach at UCLA, was confined to the UCLA Medical Center today with no hope of coaching the rest of the year. He was readmitted to the Medi cal Center Thursday night on the eve of UCLA's game with Florida tonight in the Coliseum. Doctors said he must have "complete rest of not less than three months." A UCLA spokesman said Dick erson was in a state of "complete physical exhaustion" and would be "lost to the Bruins for the remain der of the football season." First Assistant Billy Barnes was named by UCLA Athletic Director Wilbur Jahns to take over Dicker son's duties as head coach. CAUSED CONTROVERSY It was Barnes who assumed head coaching duties in preseason prac tice when Dickerson was hospital ized for 12 days for "nervous ex haustion." The head coach missed a week and half of workouts. Dickerson was appointed head coach in August after Sanders died of a heart attack. Almost immediately, Dickerson created a stir with charges that other schools were attempting to steal UCLA football players. His charges were climaxed when he flew to Berkeley and bearded Cal Coach Pete Elliott in his office. BLASTED BY ELLIOTT Dickerson complained to Elliott of the activity of Cal's chief re cruiter in Southern California and drew a bitter blast from Elliott on his return to UCLA that the Bruins coach had broken a trust. Elliott accused Dickerson of agreeing to settle the dispute "in the family" and then returning to Southern California to reveal the details of the quick trip. Johns said he was "embarrassed and flabbergasted" by Dickerson' charges. Later, the athletic direc tor said Dickerson had admitted he made a mistake. Shortly after, Dickerson entered the UCLA Medical Center the first time for treatment of "nervous exhaustion."
