Williams introduced his assistants, Jim Inglesby, Jack Peterson, Hank Smith, Al Keck, Don Herbig, DeLance Duncan and Bob Johnson and each member of the varsity squad. Soltau gave an interesting talk on the values of foot ball and education to the player and related some amusing yarns from his pro grid days. Both the Pelican Boosters, who sponsored the banquet, fans and players alike shared the suspense of waiting for Soltau's appearance. A foulup in airline connections caused the featured speaker to arrive in Klamath Falls 15 minutes after the banquet had begun. DESERVING WINNERS This quartet of happy Pelican football players posed with Gordie Soltau after accepting the trophies awardod them for their efforts through the past season. From the left is senior fullback Bill Santo who was named The Most Im proved Player; Soltau; senior guard John Hancock, who was voted The Outstanding Line man award, and was acclaimed also The Outstanding Football Player; co-captain senior end Larry Bunyard, picked by his mates The Most Inspirational Player on the club; and at right, senior halfback Blake Griggs who was named The Outstanding Back.

Hancock will step immediately back into the wrestling picture, in quest of a repeat of his 1958 title. Schloredf Handicap SEATTLE (AP) The echo of a firecracker that exploded in 1946 may be heard this winter in the Rose Bowl if one-eyed quarterback Bob Schloredt keeps the Washington Huskies rolling at their present pace. Schloredt has perfect vision in his right eye. The sight of the left eye was all but destroyed when the firecracker shattered a bottle and a fragment of glass struck 6-year-old Bobby Schloredt. He has grown into something of a firecracker himself. Washington has lost only one game to Southern California in seven starts this year and Schloredt lighted the fuse in all the vie' lories but the first. Bob Hivner was the starting quarterback when Washington opened against Colorado. Schlor edt appeared mainly as. a punter and his 50-yard kicks kept Wash ington from embarrassment. Be fore the game ended Hivner broke a finger and the one-eyed boy from Gresham, Ore., inherited the job as chief driver of the Husky team. "Too much is being made of Schioredt's handicap," said one of his coaches. "It's really no handi can. He's a complete football player. Take a look at the rec-ords." The blond, 6-foot, 1S5 - pound junior has completed 27 passes in 4 attempts and lost not a one by interception. Four went for touchdowns. Running the option play out of the Washington split-T he has carried the ball 74 times for 116 net yards. "MYHHWANA" ...is coming! A 22-man squad greeted Oregon Tech head basketball coach Wally Palmbcrg when he blew the whis tle at the start of the first practice session of the 1959-60 season, in the Mile High gym Monday night. The group will be bolstered by the addition of at least four play ers upon the completion of the Owl football season. Another, Ar dell Hamilton, who fractured his aim in the first quarter of the first game of the grid season will not be able to join the club until at least mid-December after receiving the doctor's okay. Included in the group which drew gear Monday and received introduction to the drills and con ditioning program planned were eight lcttermen returning from the 1958 season. The eight included Dennis Mc- Kee, Paul Layher, .Leon Wilson, Jim Ramseyer, Jack Horton, Jack Marsh, Hamilton, Ron Maggerud and Norm Oliva, a transfer from Southern Oregon College. Football players who will finish up their grid chores this weekend at College of Idaho then swap turf for maplewood include Charlie Wilson, Roy Johnson, Bud Mau- pin, and Kaipn .vorgaarc nnsuu, a halfback, Johnson, the quarter back, and Norgaard, a lineman all turned in creditable perform ances with the Owl cagers last season. Maupin, a freshman from Mer rill, was a standout on the State B third place Husky basketball team in high school. Highly pleasing prospects anion? the good turnout of freshmen to show are Gene Branson, from tiny Etna, California; Bruce G u i 1 1, from Anderson, California, and Norman Johns, now of Pittsburgh, California, formerly of Bly. Branson. 6-4, was voted Most Valuable Player in the annual Fall River Tournament after main taining a 24 point per game av erage in two years of high school ball. Guill, 6-2, was voted All-North ern Cal second team and was the top scorer in both the NAL and NIC leagues while at Anderson High. Johns, also 6-2, played prep ball in Pittsburgh after moving from Bly. According to Palmbcrg the lad shows plenty of potential. Also expected to be crowding for varsity sfots are Cal Gilmore. Klamath Falls; Van Zitek, Red mond; and Leland Cooper, from Fallon, Nevada. Gilmore, 6-0. rated All-Conference in 1952-53 while playing at Klamath Union High, has just completed his military service where he continued his basketball career. Zitek, 5-11, was rated the Most Valuable Player on the Redmond quintet. The tallest man on the squad Is Layher, 6-7. Layher, broke into the Owl starling five early last year and steadily improved, add ing much to the Owl power off the boards. Horton, 6-5, earned All-Southern high Conference honors school. Adding more capable height to the Owl roster is Oliva. During his high school career at Klamath Union Oliva was an All-Stater. In his stay at SOC he was voted All-Oregon Collegiate Conference in 1957. Other freshmen who will be ob served closely include John Mc Adams, 6-3, from New berg; Xen- ophnn Papadopoulos, Athens Greece; Ed Bellequc. Hub bard; Larry Brown, Athena; Carl Roth, McCloud; Don Gilchrist Libby, Montana; Gerald Mclntyrc Prineville: JoJo George, Chil oquin; and Stan Martin, Pomeroy Washington. From all indications the Owls will be much stronger than last year when they finished on the bottom of the Oregon Collegiate Conference. The 58 squad won and lost 19 overall with a 3-13 mark in OCC play. In both 1956-57 the Owls cap- lured Ihe Oregon Collegiate Con ference championship.

Owl head man, Itex llunsaker. noted that he had received a "Icel er" in regards the OT1 squad's availability for a post-season Howl game, depending, pos.-ioiy on Sat urday's outcome. Said llunsaker, "1 don t want to arouse false hopes in either play- or fans about the possibility. First: any acceptance or consid eration of such a bid would have to be approved by the OCC and the Board of Higher Education. Secondly: from the tone of the let ter.- it -appears that any lurincr consideration obviously hinges on how we fare against C of I. He added, "The inquiry made reference to a 'succcsstul season.' Evidently the fact that we won the OCC title isn't enough." Hunsaker refused to identify the source of the feeler stating that anv publicity concerning such sit uations must necessarily be made at the source of the proposal. Preparations for the trek to Ida ho have been the key of the final week's practices on the wintcry Mile High field. Although the Tcchmcn have been Litively impervious to passing attacks throughout the season, their only possible danger during limn Sou'liern Oregon College whom they downed 11-6 in Ash land, pass delinse drills have come in lor a good share of at tention this week. The Idaho club boasts one of the tup small col lege passers of the nation in the person ol quarterback Charley Al aro. Much work has also been con centrated on the Owl offensive ma chine throughout the week and a big change in the starting lineup lias resulted.

Injuries, Averages Hit Okla. SAN FRANCISCO (AP) The University of California has no intention of breaking athletic re lations with the University of Southern California over the Mc- Kecver-liales football incident. But California still wants the Big Five Athletic Assn. ol Western Universities to review California's charges that ISC uard Mike McKeevcr, an All- America candidate, deliberately elbowed halfback Steve Bates in Saturday's game here. Hates' cheek bone and pose were broken. USC officials have apologized publicly to California, but Coach Don Clark didn t.

Now the Sooncrs must scramble to break even in Coach Bud Wilkinson's worst season. Wilkinson saw his string of 74 consecutive Big Light games without a loss snapped last Satur day in Nebraska's 25-21 victory to even the Sooncrs' 1959 record at 3-3. This is the most defeats a Wil kinson-coached club has endured in 12 years his tenure as head coach, all at Oklahoma. In 1947, his first season, the Sooncrs had 7-2-1 mark and 8-2 in 1952. livery other year they lost only one or else finished unbeaten and untied. This latter happened in 19l9-50-.r4-55-5(i. producing nation al champions in 1950-55-5S. But this year the roof has caved in. The tipolt came lasi sprins when the 1959 Sooner' varsity lost its annual spring game to the alumni 27-20. Kcevcr purposely piled onto Bates on the sidelines. After the official apology, Clark had this to soy: I personally don't teel that 1 must apologize for the actions ot the USC team at Berkeley." He declined further comment. Some alumni groups suggested that CAL sever athletic relatiuns with USC unless disciplinary ac tion is taken against McKeevcr The executive committee of the Associated Students at California urged the university not to play football against USC again if Mc Keever is a team member. California Chancellor Glenn T Seaborn said "We are not con tcmplating a break in athletic re lations with the University of Southern California.
