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

son."
In reviewing the potential of the
individual members of the squad
Hunsaker noted that Merrill's Bud

LOS ANGELES (AP - Tie
Cleveland Indians and Baltimore
Orioles have asked permission to
talk to Leo Durocher about man
aging their clubs. The Associated
Press learned today.
But even before any offers
. have been made the 54-year-old
; Dodger coach has said he isn't
interested.
The AP learned from baseball
'. writer Phil Collier of the San Die-
go Union that general managers
: Gabe Paul of Cleveland and Lee
: MacPhail of Baltimore asked and
, received permission from the
; Dodgers to approach Durocher.
This reported expression of in
terest by Cleveland supports an
Af story trom Chicago today
There AP sports writer Joe Reich-
ler says he has learned Manager
Jimmie uykes will not be re
tained by the Indians next season
The manager's job at Baltimore
was vacated recently by Paul
itienards, who is moving to Hous
ton as general manager of the
new National League club the,re.
Maupin, upon'whom the Owls had
counted for extensive work at a
halfback slot, may be out for some
time yet because of a serious
knee injury.
Harvey Graham, a standout
freshman back from Grants Pass
High, turned up with a broken left
hand in practice last Saturday and
is also to be out of action, at
least for the opening contest.
Hunsaker promised the fans they
would see a "first" this week, at
least during his tenure. Wayne
Dennis, a rangy ex-Pelican end
will start the Westminster game
at a defensive line-backer, to be
come the first local athlete to ever
earn a starting Owl position.
The feature of the kickoff affair
was the appearance of assistant
coaches Jim Cordial and George
Miller, who demonstrated and ex
plained the basic principles of both
the offensive and defensive struc
ture of the Owl system, in an ef
fort to help the lady fans present
understand the game more easily
Also introduced to the group was
Jack Douglass, Oregon Tech ad
ministrative dean, who noted, "We
intend to bring our physical edu
cation program up to the present
strong level of our fine interscho
lastic activity."
Jim Partlow, a brand new addi
tion to the Owl athletic staff, was
also presented and extended his
appreciation tor me welcome ne
had received in Klamath Falls
Partlow. in addition to handling
the basketball and baseball coach
ing jobs, will also serve as head
of the physical education program.
The banquet was presided over
by Bill Hall, the president of the
Owl Hoots, the sponsors of the affair.

Nothing will come easy for the
Pelicans this weekend when they
travel for a non-league encounter
with the big North Salem Vikings

They'll run up against one ot
the beefiest lines in Oregon prep
football, one they face with a de
cidedly lesser weight average of
their own.
The Vikings romped past cross-

get their season underway while
the Pelicans were handling the

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.
The 64-year-old Dykes, now in
his 45th consecutive baseball sea
son, went to Cleveland last year
when he was traded for Joe Gor
don of Detroit in an unprecedent
ed swap of managers. He is in his
21st season as a major league
manager, having previously han
dled the Chicago White Sox, Phil
adelphia Athletics, Baltimore Or
ioles and Cincinnati Reds in addi
tion to the Tigers.
MERRILL (Special i The Mer-
rui HusKies, under brand n e w
Icoach Gene Christensen, kick off
the 1961 football season on their
home field Friday nieht when
they tangle with the Henley Hor
nets at 7:30.
' the contest, a non-counter in so
far as County B League standings
are concerned, is the second test
of the season for the young Hor
net invaders. 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.
Backing him up are 13 return
ing lettermen on a roster which
is two-deep' in every position.
ine Husky backfield includes
fullback Larry Chance. 165. half.
backs Jerry Maxwell, a 140-pound
junior, and sophomore Ken Smith
who weighs 160, and quarterback
bob Moore, a 160-pound soph.
Across the line from left end
are Uuane Mattson, a 6-1, 160
pound senior, Jim Reed, a 195
Junior, Doug Woods, a sophomore
at 185, Sam Walker at 160, Tim
tnompson, 205 junior, Lynn Long,
a 185-pound sophomore, and Dave
Hill, a 5-10 160-pound junior. Miss.
ing from the forward wall this
week is Dale Hill, 150, a guard,
wno underwent minor surgery. Al
so expected to see offensvie work
is Earl Danowsky, a 205 sopho
more center.
The defensive unit will include,
in addition to Poe, Ray Rankin
1205, Dale Kurtz, 160, and Dwicht
Winther, also 160 pounds.
The Henley nine suffered the
loss of big Leo Huff, a 220-pound
junior tackle who tore the liga
ments in his elbow in the open
er. His replacement, Bob Elliott,
a senior 215-pounder, pulled up
lame in Monday's practice.,
Huff will be out for some lime,
according to coach Len Weber,
who added that the lad's arm had
been placed in a half-cast by the
medics.

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.
The heaviest man in the Peli
can lineup is a shade under 200
pounds.
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.
