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.

j EUGENE (AP)-The University
iof Oregon, lacking a dependable
'place-kicker since the graduation
of fullback Jack Morris, may have

.Siale College as a sophomore in
.1956.
J Alter that ho transferred to the
'University of Mexico, then to he

its aerial show back in action at
the expense of a rugged Idaho
team. California stopped J i m

for the Vandals.

They'll complete their abbreviated
five-game seasons against Wash

Besides Wallen, the other pen

IN HARNESS AGAIN For the first time in three weeks the Henley Hornets are set to

is all-conference center Joe Tacchini.

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.

September. Texas hasn't beaten
Oklahoma since 1851 and the

On the Pacific Coast the picks
are UCLA over Florida, Southern
California over Oregon and Wash

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."
