OREGON PACE SEVCT rromr LSU Wins, But Iowa Wins Bigger; Sooners Triumph By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS i Louisiana State the national foot ball champion probably will get a strong argument over the honor from second place Iowa today in the wake of the Sugar and Rose Bowl games. Both teams were heavily fa vored LSU by 15 points over Clemson in the Sugar Bowl and Iowa by 18 over California, in the Rose Bowl. Only Iowa proved the odasmakers correct. - The Hawkeycs scored in every period to overwhelm California the Pacific Coast Conference king S8-12. LSU had to call on Coach Paul Dietzel to call the play that detealefl Clemson 7-0. Oklahoma did as expected and defeated dogged Syracuse 21-6 in the Orange Bowl. Air Force pulled a mild upset in playing Southwest Conference champion Texas Chris tian to a 0-0 tie in a battle of fumbles and mistakes in the Cot ton Bowl. Prairie View A&M wal- lopped Langston 34-8 in the Prairie View Bowl. Iowa was runnerup to the Bayou Bengals in the final Associated Press poll that settled the national championship. But the Big Ten champs were not expected to have as easy a time as they did against an outweighed, outmaneuvered Cal team. On the other hand, LSU, with Pels Host Cavemen In Opener fans look A new definition has been coined at Klamath Union High School. Hustle . . . the straightest line between two state championships. And with this thought in mind, coach Dean White and his Pelican cagers take the court tonight in their first defense of an inheritance, the 1958 Oregon State basketball champion ship. This won't be an easy sea son .. . but then becoming champions wasn't exactly a cinch . . . and staying on top once you have arrived will never be easy. , In the Grants Pass Cavemen the Pels meet the number two team In the district last season nnd the only one to Inflict a loss on the '38 squad s record.

The pressure is on. When you are first everyone is shooting at you. In the number two or three spot things arc different. The Pel icans are first. KU won its first four tests, and they bad to hustle to do It. Sonic may say that they created their own need for the test minute spurts, which may be true. How ever. In the won-lost columns, It doesn't show. Whether you win early and coast the rest of the way or come-lrom bchind In the last seconds, a win is a win. The latter method may be a BYU Lands Football Boss . PROVO. Utah (AP) Brigham Youne University promoted Tally Stevens from senior assistant to head football coach New Year's Day. Stevens, 35, helped former coach Hal Kopp guide BYU to its highest Skyline Conference standing in its history. President - Ernest L. Wilkinson announced Stevens' appointment Thursday night. The salary terms or length of the contract were not disclosed, but Stevens saia: "I'm very happy with my contract." Stevens said the major differ ence between his brand of football and Rood's style is in variety. He plans to substitute a multiple of fense for hopps wing-i. He inherits a talent-laden squad which he helped Kopp recruit. Only 10 seniors will be lost by graduation from the Cougar team which battled Wyoming in the final game for the conference title. BYU had been picked to win the championship, but wound up third. Stevens is a native of Evanston. Wyo., and was a star end for the University of Utah in 1946-47-48. He graduated in 1949.

Having never been a true wres tling fan, a situation obvitusly created by a lack of knowledge of the sport, this writer was hap pily surprised Tuesday to find that lie hated to leave the scene of the Pelican-Ashland Grizzly wrestling meet before it was over. An unavoidable business appoint ment made it necessary that I miss the varsity end of the compe titionbut I saw enough during the Frosh and Jayvee bouts to convince me that I had been miss ing something. I he outstanding impression left on me, to say nothing of the ability demonstrated, was the tre mendous amount of team spirit shown in a sport where individual combat, bout by bout, is the way to a win. - It seemed that each wrestler personified the combined spirits of his teammates and his coach, while he was at work. A word of advice to sports fans. It you haven't .seen wrestling. high school or college style, do yourself a favor. Attend the Sat urday afternoon matches at KU when Ihe Pels host one of the most powerful teams in the state, the Redmond Panthers. The Panthers are bringing two state champions for the invasion. Last year they were number two in the state The upturn in interest being shown in the plans lor a Little League baseball park to be con structed ultimately in Klamath Falls is highly encouraging to yours truly. Wearing a beard can become very tiring, especially over a seven-month time. Feels good to think that someday, soon, i can come out from behind it. My pledge to wear whiskers un til the first shovel of dirt was turned in conjunction with the Lit tle League park is still in effect but believe me it can get mighty troublesome after a while. What with the wifely viewpoint and all The Exchange Club kicked off the LL activity by announcing its plans for a circus to be held March 28, all the- proceeds ot which are to go toward making the park a reality. Following the Exchanger's example is a group of boxing enthusiasts who are planning a big benefit smoker for January 22 in the Klamath Audi torium (old armory). Both events should be well re ceivedaccording to the support they have had in the early stages, and both groups are to be contratu lated for their thought and efforts. Boost them along every chance you get. The Little Leaguers will be very grateful. More anent the Little League plan as yet there has been nn land made available for the park. Landowners with, say a surplus 10 acres, please note. Seems like an excellent oppor tunity for some public spirited per son to help Ihe Little Leaguer's cause. What could he nicer than to go watch a couple, three ball games a week In a ball park namrd after yourself. The 10-acre plan could Include two regulation size and two Little League size diamonds, parking area, grandstands, concession stands, dressing rooms, Ihe works.

Go and Chinese Band its three-team varsity specialists, was expected to have some trou ble from a hefty Clemson line, but by sheer weight of numbers, were supposed to have things their way in Ihe end. The Clemson line didn't weak en. A broken right hand by LSU quarterback Warren Rabb on the third play of the game put him out for the second half. These two factors weighed heavily in forcing Dietzel to revamp his offensive plans and hope. The wisp of hope came in the third period when Clemson center Paul Snyder got a firmer grip on some turf than on the ball on a snap-back to punter Bill Mathis. The ball sailed wildly and bounced off the knee of blocker Doug Cline. It was recovered by LSU tackle Duane Leopard on the Clemson 11. Two plays gained only one yard and on third down All America halfback Billy Cannon the games most valuable player, started wide, spotted end Mickey Mang ham and hit him with a pass for the score. Cannon kicked the ex tra point. Dietzel admitted afterward that he called the scoring play "be cause Clemson was putting so much pressure on our quarter backs when they went back lo pass that I figured a halfback run-pass option would take more time Rabb whose injury was not dis closed until halftime explained that his passing was handicapped and he was forced to abandon his wide-open offense for a ground game. He hit only two of seven passes. Iowa never had a worry in the Rose Bowl, although they fumbled at the start. Led by Bob (Jet) Jeler, the Hawkeycs, winning their second Rose Bowl, rolled up 516 yards overall, 25 more than former recordholder Michigan in 1948 against Southern Cal. Jester ran 81 yards for one score, breaking Northwestern's Frank Aschenbrenner's record of 71 against Cal in 194S. He also gained 194 yards overall, 43 more than Bobby Grayson of Stanford against Columbia in 1934, the pre vious record. Iowa scored the second time it had the ball, and managed at least one TD per quarter against a Cal line outweighed an average of 18 pounds per man. Coach Forest Evashevski's winning formula: "Our basic plan was to run inside and off tackle. We figured they were weak there." Said Cal Coach Pete Elliot: We knew it was coming. . .but it's hard to block a freight train. Jack Hart scored both Cal TDs, one on a yard plunge, the other on a 17-yard pass from quarterback Joe Kapp. Oklahoma used its blinding speed to build up a 14-0 first per iod lead, added another score in the third and then got pushed around for the rest of the game by a Syracuse line that didn't melt in the 78 degree heat. Fullback Prcnlice Gautt raced 42 yards on the second play of the game for the first Sooner score. Brewster Hobby combined with end Russ Coyle for a 79-yard pass play for the second TD a new Orange Bowl record for dis tance, and Hobby took a punt 40 yards for the third score. Mike Weber s 15-yard plunge in the final quarter got Syracuse, which won the battle of statistics its TD. There were 13 fumbles by Texas Christian and Air Force, each team losing three. TCU pushed deep into Air Force territory twice in the final minutes, but fumbles lost both opportunities. Air Force had two similar chances in the first half, and one in the second but couldn't cash in. The Air Force s George Pupich missed three field goal tries and TCU's Jack Spikes two. Spikes was the game's leading back with 108 yards on 17 carries. Prairie View scored four second half touchdowns to overcome an 8-6 halftime deficit. Halfback Archie Seals and fullback Jimmy Tolcston paced the winners, the national Negro collegiate champs The four major games were on national television and a total live audience of 331.032 sat in on 1959's first taste of college football.

Moyer Meets Ortega NEW YORK i AP) Fight start the New Year with a at something brand new in Denny Moyer, a 19-year-old welterweight from Portland, Ore. who has won all of his 18 pro fights. Young Moyer. of French-Irish parentage, appears betore a net work (.NBC I television camera tor the first time tonight when he boxes sadfaced Gaspar Ortega of Mexican, Mexico in Madison Square Garden. The 10-round match also will be carried on NBC radio, starting at 10 p.m., (EST) It may be that Moyer, a former AAU champ, will open and close in one. On the other hand, it may be the first of many appearances in the big arena. Boxmg certainly needs new faces badly. It cant afford to wait. However, the expert opinion that has made Ortega an 8 to 5 favorite thinks the youngster is being rushed when he is pitted against an experienced opponent who has had 6:! pro fights. Moyer has a brother, Phil, who is campaigning as a middleweight. Their father. Harry, also was a pro fighter and an uncle, Tommy, is the promoter in Portland where the boys have had most of their fights. Under New York rules a 19-year- old isn't permitted to box 10 rounds unless special permission is granted. The special permission was forthcoming for Denny, who has fought six 10-rounders in other arenas. The better-known boxers he has beaten while compiling his 18-0 record (four knockouts) have been Al Andrews, Johnny Saxton and Tony Dupas He outpointed all three. Ortega is well known to boxing fans, either live or TV version. He lost to Isaac Logart last year in the tournament set up to deter mine a successor for Carmen Ba silio. Virgil Akins eventually won the tournament. When they were trying to decide on a challenger for Akins, they matched Ortega with Don Jordan. The first time they met, Jordan s victory was considered an upset. When Jordan eDcatcd the decision in 12 rounds. he got the title shot and dethroned Akins. Ortega, 23, still hopes to scram ble to a champrtnship match. He has little to gain and everything to lose in this one but is in the mood to take chances. Ortega has been inactive since Oct. 22, the date of his second fight with Jor dan. He has been fighting since 1953 and owns a 47-13-2 record with 20 knockouts. He never has been stopped.
