o o imddft Mb; Pels A wait .Millets' dls Fo invade S i i ' i .?T HARVEY GRAHAM . . . Owl back Mentors Hit Odds Publicity NEW YORK lUPIl The pub lishing of college football odds, both in newspapers and football cards, has been denounced as a demoralizing influence upon the "kids playing the game" by John Bateman, head coach at Rutgers University. Tom Nugent, coach of Mary land, and Joe Foss. president of the American Football League, supported Bateman at Monday's football writers' meeting. Nugent said the printing of odds had a "reverse psychological ef fect on my team" and Foss said that "any remedy, no matter how small, should be tried" to prevent a gambling scandal. Bateman pointed out that he was not concerned with the big bettor, because they "always can find out the odds," but he was concerned about the small bettor. He pointed out that "fraternity brothers bet $5 on them at the published odds and the players feel they're letting down their friends if they don't win by the point-spread." "We've got to pressure down the gambling." Bateman said, "and If we reduce gambling by one-tenth of one per cent it's worth it." Nugent, whose team lost to Maryland, 14-8, last Saturday, said, "this is no alibi, but the word got to the kids that the odds makers didn't think we could pass in the rain. "And it was a psychological dis advantage," he said, "we couldn't pass in the rain. I'm certain that being picked by two and three touchdowns had its effect on us." Foss revealed the AFL was par ticularly alert and wary against a gambling scandal and said he had a lie detector which he would use without hesitation in any con troversy which might hurt the league. Mercy Bowl Draws Okay From NCAA NEW YORK lUPlt - The Mercy Bowl Game in Los Ange les, a benefit for victims of the 1960 California Poly air disaster, was among IS post-season foot ball contest officially certified to day by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA1.

See Walt Sub In urban fijiance tfc Town t4 Country Ph JI70 U. ttfc Techmen Gearing For SOC The Oregon Tech Owls are giv ing their passing defensive struc ture no little attention as they prepare for their annual "big" game with the Southern Oregon College Red Raiders this weekend. Saturday afternoon at 1:.10 in Ashland, the Owls will tangle with SOC as the feature attraction of the Red Raider Homecoming fes tivities. The Owls' chief aim is to spoil the day for the host club, whether it's polite or not. The Tech eleven, fresh from a 25-13 win over Eastern Oregon here Saturday night, returned to practice Monday afternoon and de voted a good bit of the time to plans neccssarv to put the vaunt ed SOC Airarm out of commis sion. Raider quarterback Doug Olson, a smooth-working sophomore, is currently leading the Oregon Col legiate Conference passers, and his favorite target, end Howard Hartman is number one in the receiving department. Both are expected to be in lop' shape for the Saturday afternoon battle. Monday night at the Owl Hoot meeting in the Broiler, freshman fullback Harvey Graham, and frosh tackle Don Vidic were guests of honor as the outstanding play ers in the Owl win over SOC. Each spoke briefly when intro duced by coach Rex Hunsaker after short talks by aides George Miller and Jim Cordial. Cordial's report dealt with the Portland Statc-SOC game which he scout ed in Portland last week. Graham, a highway technology major from Grants Pass, com mented, "We'll give SOC a good game," then corrected himself, self, "We'll beat 'em." Vidic, a machine-shop student, is a newcomer from Cheswick, Penn., who expects to continue his education at OT1 with a course in tool and die making. Both were praised by Hunsak er, not only for commendable ef forts on the football field, but also for their application to the aca demic side of their educations. He said. "Many people don't realize just what a football player has to go through. First, they must at tend classes six hours a day, then they must spend two hours on their assigned jobs, then practice football two hard hours, and fol low up with a strenuous ses sion of homework and study in the evenings. Actually . . . this doesn't leave them much time for frivolities, or even sleep. The selection of the outstanding back and lineman will continue to be a weekly feature of the Owl Hoot's regular meetings. 1AST NIGHT Fight Results By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS San Jose. Calif.

Owl lineman BTcmans Prepping For Trip ROME AP Italy trained' its sights on Australia and another crack at the Davis Cup today while the humiliated United States began the long wait until next year. The Italians after beating the Americans in the interzone final, 4-1 promptly started Drerjara- lions for the trip to Australia. There, in December, the Italians for the second straight year will meet Australia in the challenge round for the most coveted trophy in international tennis. Italian tennis officials said they would probably use 'the same three men against Australia that beat the United States: Nicola Pi- etrangeli. Orlando Sirola, and Faustro Gardini. Eugenio Migone. nonplaving captain of the Italian team, said: "We have every hope of winning. It will be close." The Italians were determined to do better than last-year, when they lost to the Australians, 4-1. David Freed, nonplaving cap- lain of the U.S.' team, agreed it would be close, too. He said the Italians could win if Sirola is in shape for doubles and Pietrangeli plays against the Australians--as he played against the Americans. Pietrangeli, 28, who has dom inated European amateur tennis for the last few ' years, decided a year ago to join Jack Kramer's professional troupe. Then he changed his mind, saying he wanted to remain an amateur to help Italy win the Davis Cup. Without him Italy never would have beaten the United States. He won two crucial singles matches, defeating Whitney Reed of Ala meda, Calif., and Jon Douglas of Santa Monica, Calif. He also was instrumental in giving Italy a third point, teaming with Orlando Sirola to beat he American dou bles team of Donald Dell of Be thesda, Md., and Reed.' Gardini won Italy's fourth point by beating Reed Monday in the final match after Pietrangeli had already sewed things up against Douglas. Douglas provided the lone American point, defeating Gardini in the first singles match last Friday. Touring Pros Open Tourney COSTA MESA. Calif.

Phil Hurler Says Yankees 'Smari' Club PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Rob in Roberts was asked how he felt toward the New York Yankees, the only team in major league baseball willing to take a chance the right-hander's great career isn't a thing of the past. "I would like to think that they're a smart organization." said Roberts, 35. beaming from ear to ear at the thought of pitch ing for Roger Maris, Mickey Man tle & Co. It was a typical Roberts' an swer, showing the kind of pride, and competitive spirit Gen. Mgr. Roy Harney said had prompted the Yankees to buy the pitcher from the Philadelphia Phillies for price believed to be slightly over the $20,000 waiver figure. There was no doubt how Roberts felt about the deal. It was all he could do to keep from laughing at the thought of being a Yankee. Playing with the Yankees is the only place to be," said the winner of 234 games he lost 199 in 14 years with the Phillies. "Any body knows that in base ball the deal is to win or lose. I've watched the Yankees win, and I want to be a part of it." Roberts, who pitched only two complete games in 1961, while winning 1 and losing 10, insists the Yankees will never regret tak ing a chance on him. "I've got three or four more good years yet," he asserted at a news conference at which own er Bob Carpenter of the Phillies announced the sale. Harney said in New York the Yankees felt they had everything lo gain and nothing to lose in tak ing Roberts. HITS BREEDING HORSE OCALA, Fla. UPH Industri alisl W. L.

In Goteborg, Sweden, in 1958, the boxer from Redding, Calif., got in the way of a vicious right from the big blond swede after 2 minutes, 16 seconds of the first round. It was the end of the fight. That punch earned Johansson a title fight .with world champion Floyd Patterson. It put off con siderably Machen's chance of a crack at the world title. Machen, still hpoing for that fight title, could see his dreams crash around him if he loses to night. But he is rated 3-1 favorite to beat London, former British champion who has not fought for more than a year. October 17, 1961 PAGE I Bob Lclli, also suffered a hand fracture in the same game.

Monday afternoon, after viewing the film of their big win over the Tornado, the Pelicans launched their preparations for the Muler invasion this weekend. The first practice placed stress on game fundamentals, machine blocking and tackling drills and particular emphasis was placed on wind sprints, said Williams. After checking the performance of his club as shown on film, Williams said, "We were espec ially impressed with the defensive work displayed by Ron Hitchcock and Roger Macy. Both were stand- outs and their work is often over looked during the progress of the game ... but it shows up when one can see the films." Williams also complimented sen ior kicking specialist John Ruger whose talented toe booted the all- mportant conversion point that won the game for KU. He said, "This boy is dedicated he has worked and worked on kicking . . . and it is really paying off for him." Hitchcock, it was discovered,- had made the important shoe string tackle previously credited to Kent Hunsaker.
