o 1961 Owls Facing Rugged "Schedule , Oregon Tech (oolball coach Rexj Hunsaker, speaking to a gathering of Owl fans at the annua! kickoff banquet Tuesday night, admitted that his squad "would win more1 than it would lose" but in the same breath warned that it faces one of its toughest schedules. Hunsaker, who is not noted for being overly optimistic concern ing the chances of his eleven, pointed out that the 1961 slate in cluded both Whitworth College and Humboldt State, two of the strong est small colleges in the United States. The Whitworth test is the second game of the season for the Owls and will be played in Spo kane's big Memorial Stadium on Sept. 23. The Techmen meet Hunv boldt State at Areata on Oct. 28. The Owls open their season this weekend on Modoc Field when they host Westminster College in a game about which Hunsaker said, "If we lose that one it's go ing to be an awfully long sea son."

Rumor Says Dykes Done With Indians CHICAGO (AP)-Jimmie Dykes will not be retained as manager of the Cleveland Indians, The As sociated Press learned today. One of the current Cleveland coaches, Mel McGaha. is expected to become manager for 1962 with Dykes shifting to a National League club as a coach. Dykes has coached in recent years at both Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. I don t know anything about it," Dykes said in Cleveland. Gabe Paul, the Indians' general manager, ' would neither confirm nor deny the information. McGaha, who joined the Indi ans' coaching staff this season after leading the Toronto Maple Leafs to the 1960 International League pennant, was unavailable to comment.

They shared a 7-7 tie with the Chiloquin Panthers in their inaugural last Friday. The Merrill defense may pose some problems for the Henlev crew it's built around young Bill foe, a mountainous junior who tips the beam at a cool 300; pounds, the heaviest player re corded in the area in years, if not in history. Poe, who stands about 6-1, gets 'that first step as quickly as any man on our squad," says Christensen.

Friday for the Noitli-Souih game, the Pels w ill find the going exceed ingly "rough up the middle" but he also noted that there are weak nesses in the Viking defense which might provide a loophole. The Vik deep pass defense is reportedly weak as are the defensive end positions. Coach Spike Hillstiom's Vik crew is directed by quarterback Darrell Elfredt, a 165-pound sen ior, who goes both ways. The halfbacks are Kent Evans, 142, and Jim Kelly, 145. The outstand ing player in the backfield. how ever, is junior fullback Gary Col- lctte. a 192-pound phenom who is playing his first year of football. The lad is reportedly a threat around the ends or as a passer, in addition to his ability through the middle. The Viking line, from the. left end. includes, co-captain Punk Wells, 195: Dan Clark. 212; Walt Looney. 205; Bill Richie. 201; Wayne Looney. 222; and Don Cau sev. 191.

Head coach Bob Williams had Whitey Ford of the Yankees pitched 15 times with three days rest before the first All-Star game this season. He had a 16-2 first- half record.
