hhhoma, Combing Jobs, Bowls (Ebief Topics For NCAA Meeting PITTSBURGH AP) - The an nual get-together of college coaches and athletic directors starts today with one big unan swered question and a couple of lesser ones that aren't on the of ficial agenda. The big one: What are they go ins to do about Oklahoma? Some other questions: Who gets what footbal! coaching joo? wnai happens to the bowl games that weren't played? The Oklahoma question is a holdover from last year's meet ing. The Sooners were placed on Indefinite probation a year ago because an investigation laiica 10 turn up the financial details of a recruiting fund that operated from 1952 to 1954. The university couldn't supply an answer; the man who admin' istered the fund wouldn't open his books and the NCAA ruled Okla homa would have to take the con sequences until the NCAA council could see the figures and decide just how badly the rules had been fractured. A year later the situation ap parently is unchanged but there s a feeling in some quarters that Oklahoma's punishment has lasted long enough. I 'The annual football coaching go-round appears to be of minor importance this year. Only a tew major jobs are vacant and any thing that happens here likely will be in the nature of preliminary conversation. The bowl question is a new one. A proposed cnange in ine NCAA by-laws specifies that if a post-season game is certified but not played, its certification shall lapse. This mainly affects New York's Gotham bowl game ap proved for December 1960 but un played because top teams couldn't be obtained. The promoters may not even wan', to try again. Otherwise the week-long series of meetings may not be eventful. The 562 colleges, conferences and allied groups composing the NCAA will act on several bits of lcfiisla lion designed to strengthen NCAA control over practices in recruit ing and financial aid to athletes. Only a few preliminary commit tee meetings are slated today. The NCAA television committee begins a two-day meeting Saturday with some thought of requests to change the program for region al football telecasts. The rules committee of the American Football Coaches As. sociation also meets Saturday. Some coaching groups have asked for a more liberal substitution rule, but the coaches can only make recommendations which aren't alwav? accepted by the NCAA rules committee.

A "reasonable age" might be described as those years b'tween the toddling and doddering stages Skiing has been around for a long time, but only in the last couple of decades has it become national snort-something like baseball. Suddenly, it could give rock W roll a run for its money in popularity. That la a noor comparison, be cause skiing really has a . lot of class. It means many things to many people. Some, for instance the ski lodce' as modeling grounds for the latest In winter wear. Others use li as a piace to meet people, particularly those of the opposite gender. Some like the fireside chat and ttu oftor ski eet-toiethers. Quite a few seem to get a bang out of wearing the look of a Nordic champion and speaking In terms f "sitimarks" and "wedcln" and "Schuss," like sportscar drivers stick to cubic centimeters and plaid caps. Some even learn to yodel. Many get out on the slopes and Indulge in a sport that is brcath tnltinB for the participant and spectator alike. whe well cuted.

Lyle Fife, former president and still a ma Jor stockholdei in the Detroit Foot ball Co.. said today rebel share holders may have enough strength to overthrow the current aa ministration of the Lions. For the second time in a year, sauabblins in the front office has utiilen the headlines from the club's performances on the field. The volcanic situation centers around Edwin J. Anderson, presi dent and general manager of the club. Anderson was the center of the controversy a year ago when ' some of the directors tried to throw him out of office. The move died, Fife said, because "not all members of the dissatisfied group were willing to stand up and be counted. This time a proxy fight is on. There are IS directors on the board, and 1 of them have lined up with Anderson to oppose the rebel group. r Fife quit the board after his first attempt to oust Anderson failed. He holds 640 shares of the some 12,600 shares of stock In the company, one of the most success ful franchises in the National Foot . ball League. j "I am speaking strictly as a stockholder." said Fife. "I do not want to be president of the Lions. I merely want to see the Detroit Football Co operate in a sound, ethical manner. It's not being ( . operated thai way under the pres-J ot dministraUon."

The skiers meet each Thursday evening, at the Airmen's Service Club at Kingsley Field. These people, and there 'are a lot of them, are skiers of all calibers.

Shasta Ski Bowl for the past two weeks, While the bowl is washed by i warm Chinook wind from the south, valleys in southern Siskiyou County have been shivering through a cold snap. The temper ature hasn't reached freezing for days at the bowl, even in the dead of night, and it soars in the daytime. Consequently, the snow has no Icy spots and skiing Is rated good to very good. Clear weather is forecast for Friday and Friday evening, but snow should begin to fall early Saturday as low as 4,000 feet.' Moderate amounts are expected and the weather should clear for Sunday, the weatherman says.

They'll need all the defense they can muster against the Chiloquin crew. Led by Butch Crume, who heads all the county shooters with 16.5 per game average, the Panthers include three players among the top ten producers. Bobcat Jim Hall, a 5-10 guard, isn't forced to take much of a back seat for the Chiloquin scor ers, however. In just seven games he has counted 110 points for a 15.7 game average, less than a point per game behind Crume in second place The Gilchrist - Malm tussle should go to the better-balanced, more experienced Mustangs, but here again one of the high scor ers.

Braun went to the referees' dressing room immediately after me game and demanded that Sid Borgia recommend a fine for Lee is his report of the game. "It better cost him something Jocko," Braun said. "If they (the league officials) let this sort of thing go on we'll be right back to the old days." Collins fired back "He's (Braun) the biggest con man in the game. He tried to ref. eree while he was playing for 12 years and he's still trying. . ." Gun Clubbers Open Season Klamath 'Gun Club members swing their sights from the live birds of the field to the clay ones on the Wocus Ranee this Sunday to initiate another season of trapshooling. The action, which will include regular practice events in addition to competition for the Howard Pernell trophy, is slated to begin at 10 a.m. The general public has been in vited to attend and participate in me snoot. The Pernell trophy, a beautiful silver platter carried over from last season, will become the per manent possession of the first gun ner to acquire three "legs." To date Bill McDonald, John Llchlcn stern, Earl Kent, and George Cunha each have one "leg" on the award. The 20-year-old sophomore cen ter scored a late second-period goal at Boston Thursday night to give the Hawks their sixth con secutive triumph, a 4-3 verdict over the Bruins. . The goal was the eighth for Mikita, who was born in Czecho slovakia and emigrated to Canada in 1948, during the six-game streak. Frank Mahovlich scored his 35th goal in 39 games as the surging Toronto Maple Leafs turned back the Red Wings 4-1 at Detroit in the league's only other game.

The course meas ures 7,131 yards and par is 36-3571. ' Sunny skies and temperature In the low 70s were promised by the weatherman. The logical favorite Is power hitting Arnold . Palmer, whose magic with the clubs earned more than MO.OCO last year and netted him two of the biggest champion ships in the game, the United States Open and the Masters. He also won six other tournaments. Oddly enough, Arnold's best finish in the Los Angeles Ooen was a tie for 10th in 1959. Last! year he tied for 26th. The 1960 winner, Dow Finster- wald, will defend his laurels. The consistent young man from Te questa, Fla., was good enough to earn $38,000 or more for the vear. inner stars on hand include Art Wall Jr., Ken Venturi, Jay He bert, the National PGA champion in 1960, and his brother Lionel, who won the same title in 1957.
