E. L. Coyner, principal, announced today. Cox served as head track coach during his three years at Sisters. He was assistant football coach his first year, moving up to head coach the following year. Cox's football teams have never finished worse than second In league competition, and won the six-man football championship dur ing nis initial season as head grid coacn. He will serve as assistant foot ball coach in addition to teaching auues. ing the panic button and he isn't in danger of being fired al la Bill Norman at Detroit. It was Nor man's sage and sad rebuttal that "managers are hired to be fired" but not so with the man who has led the Yankees to nine pennants and seven world championships in 10 years. SWEETNESS AND LIGHT Only since the Norman dismis sal has the current sad plight of the ankees come into focus. Be fore that, the Detroit downfall took precedence but, with that matter cleaned MP. all eyes are now trained on the Yankees. Ac tually, the Yankee plight was even worse all along. They were expected to be winners. Detroit only was given an overall vote of confidence to make the best run at the world champions. The standing of the club in the strange- atmosphere of the lower strata of the second division is evident in old Casey's attitude. He is all sweetness and light. This, the Yankees , will confide, is ever the way when things are going bad. At such times, Stengel is most solicitous pf his heroes, in a kindly manner attempting to re build their trembling egos. It is only when they are hot that he lashes out with the whip. Then he applies the old backroom philoso phy of "you've got 'em down, kick em. CLUB IS SOLID Stengel naturally is worried and, as he does while winning or losing, spends his nights plotting and scheming for victory. There is a great deal of lip licking and chortling around the league as result of the poor Yankee start. There have been all kinds of analysis, all jubilant, as to what has happened. The veter ans have been labeld long over the hill" and the younger mem bers "overrated." The league overall undoubtedly is stronger but impartial observers still con tend in the face Of current adver sity that the Yanks are all alone in the first division on potential. Hank Bauer summed it up best when he said: "See me in September." The hunch here is that the rest of the league at that time will have to look upwards to make such a vision possible. . Case Unworried, Just Irritated KANSAS CITY (AP) - Casey Scngel isn't worried by his New York Yankees' slump but he seemed irritated. Tuesday night netore the game with the Kansas City Athletics. .? A television camera crew ap proached the Yankee bench with microphone and camera. "Get away from here," Stengel said. "You want me to come out and talk about this ball club and I ain't going to do it. This is a good ball club. I make my living here On this bench not in the movies. When the camera crew tried to put in a dissent, Stengel jumped up and headed for the clubhouse calling over his shoulder: "I'll see you in Europe." ' Bill Skowron led the Yankee hit ters during the spring exhibitions with a .466 batting mark. He also led in triples, doubles, hits and in scoring runs. The University of Washington football team lost seven of its last eight games in 1958. Owl Athletes Schedule Trek (Continued front Page I B) marked that the Owls cinder crew could match Portland State in quality but not in quantity." The graying Ore Tech mentor, was re terring to the fact that the Vikings are two' and three men deep in every event. The majority of the PSU points in meets this year have come from second and third place finishes. Top men for the Vikings this year, expected to give the Owls a rough time, are Len Lukens in both the mile and two-mile events Gene Hedrick in the 440 and 880. Ole Adamson in the discus apd shot put. Ron Lokcn in the pole vault and Bernie Jones in both the 100 and 220. Ore Tech's Dick Hocevar.

Hocevar holds the high hurdle mark while Jackson and Sawyer ' have set new stan dards in the javelin and 880-yard dash respectively. Other Owl tracksters who turned in promising performances against Southern Oregon two weeks ago were speedster Leon Wilson in the 100-yard dash and Dale Perkins in the discus. Wilson, competing in the third track meet of his career won the 100. against SOC in 10.2 seconds. Perkins, improving con stantly, placed second to the Raid ers' Pedro Colley in the discus event to help boost the Owls to victory. Other entries for Ore Tech against ' PSC will be Sawyer in the half mile, Bill Barrington in the 440, Roger Moreland. who won both events against SOC in both the mile and half mile, A r d e 1 Hamilton in both ' the broad and high jumps, William Hanson in the pole vault and Frank Wilson and Paul Layher in the shot put.

'OLD AMERICANS STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY J New Mentor Likes Detroit Vim, Vigor DETROIT (AP) Jimmy Dykes doesn't know, nor docs he care, what went on with the Detroit Tigers before he got to town. Everything Dykes has seen so far, albeit only three baseball games, ' has his approval. His team beat the Boston Red Sox Tuesday night 8-3 for its third straight victory. It sounded odd Dykes' reply when he asked what he likes best about the team he inherited unexpectedly late last Saturday afternoon when Bill Norman was fired. "I like the spirit, the attitude," said the 62-year-old manager. "The players are grinning, they act like they want to win and they didn't let up after beating the Yankees that doubleheader. That's important. If we can win a couple of the players might get that old confidence. Then there's no tell ing where they might go." It sounded odd, because these are the Tigers who have been criticized so roundly over the past tew seasons for being too carefree, too easy-going, too nonchalant. Few have hinted that the spirit, above all, was anything to boast about. "I don't know what went on be fore," Dykes added. "All I know is what I see now and I'm waiting to see other things. And I won't ask the coaches anything about what went on before, how the other guy ran the club, or any thing. I'm running it now."
