'elicans Take On Tough Crater in Homecoming Same Friday By JERRY WAGGONER Herald and New Sporti Editor The Klamath Union Pelicans will be olavrr.2 a tough football pame Fridav night on Modoc Field and saying a few prayers simultaneously. The Pelicans have Homecoming Friday and will be host to the ruseed Crater Cornels in an p.m. football game to cap the activities. The prayers will be both for a victory over the Com- r ets and for Grants Pass to down the state's leading Medford Black Tornado a week hence. This will be a very crucial game for the Pehcans. They need a victory to insure a possible three-way lie for the Southern Oregon Conference championship. The Pelicans lost to Medford but whipped Grants Pass. Grants Pass must beat Medford to in sure the knot. The game, however, can not be looked upon as a night of frolic for the Pelicans. They will have to play a full 4K minutes of good football to beat the Comets Crater has a rugged team which caught Medford in the mud and almost pulled the big upset the night Klamath was upending Grants Pass, The Comets final ly lost 7-0. The Pelicans (ell to the Tornado 13 0.

At left is junior quarterback Walt Smith who tossed a pair of touchdown passes last week against Ashland. At right is Rick Horn, the regular signal-caller, who will open at the post. Henley Meets Eagle Point should fire the Pels to a high pitch. The Homecoming ill begin r ri- day when they hold Homecoming assembly at Modoc Field at 1:30 p.m. where the queen will be crowned. The queen candidates are Andrea Silani. Mary Beth Sol- berg. Kaycce Martz, Pam Bauer and Janice LaGrande. The floats I assemble at Modoc Field and parade through town after the crowning. Crater is 0-2 in league play. having lost to both Medford and Grants Pass. The Pelicans are tied in secord with Grants Pass with a 2-1 record. So second place also hangs in the balance on the outcome of this game. Crater will be no easy foe. They have quarterback Mike Glines whom many call the finest quarterback in the slate. Coach Fred Spiegelberg of Medford said that and many voices have ech oed it. And the coaches at KU aren't contradicting this quote. either. The Pelicans expect to have a number of passes tossed against them in this contest. Glines throws well and runs well from his quarterback position. He will have ends Bob Turner and Paul Bransom to fling to as well as backs Joe McCahy. Vern Swan son and John Mocster. But the Pelicans discovered their passing abilities last week when quarterbacks Rick Horn, a senior, and Walt Smiii, a junior, connected on seven of !1 at tempts. This could complement iheir running attack this week to a great extent. Horn and Smith both have shown abilities of late in the running of the roll outs and options, Hon Hitchcock. Grover Dahn and John English will spearhead the running attack. Hitchcock and Dahn are the first and second leading ground gainers respect ively. Fnglish. a converted end.

The HorneLi need this victory Friday over Eagle Point or a second place finish. Eagle Point lost to St. Mary s and tied the good Phoenix team but was up set earlier in the season by Lake- view. They have been playing very good ball in the last lew games, however. Coach Len Weber of Henley commented Wednesday night at the weekly Pelican Booster Club meeting that his kids "just didn't fully realize the importance of he Phoenix game until it was too ite."

OTI Cage Season Opening Oregon Tech basketballers re port for their first practice ses sion of the season at the Owl Gym today and head coach Jim Partlow expects anywhere from 15 to .'10 prospective players to turn out Ihe first day. The Owls are the defending Oregon Collegiate Contcrcnce hampion but admittedly will be hard pressed to retain that title this year although Partlow thinks he has some fine prospects. "There are 15 kids I know that will turn out. but there may be as many as 30 show up," Part low said. He has only Iwo returning reg ulars Irom last year's quintet. They are Norman Jones and Hew It'll Nash. The other two return ers are Wayne Dennis of Klam alh Falls and Mike MacDonald. Partlow is high on some new comers, lie lias a b io iaa irom Willamette High in Eugene which undoubtedly will help. "He will help us some way with that size, Partlow said. He (Minted out recently to watch for the name of Willie Anderson whom Partlow says is a great prospect. He is a tall one also and las a lot of moves. Another top gunner for the Owls ould be Jerry Franklin who was the leading scorer in the Class A-2 Stale Tournament last sea son. Partlow also mentioned Char- ie Johnson as a good prospect.

They will be a slight favorite over the pesky Panthers. The Antlers will be a heavy favorite over the Mustangs. Merrill edged by Bonanza. 28 14, last week in the Potato Festi val despite a great effort by Rod Pheiffcr. Bonanza and Chil oquin tied in a great game the week before. But Chiloquin ap pears improved and ready for the Huskies this outing. The Huskies topped the Panth ers 33-12 in tne nrst meeting this year, but this one is expected to be closer. Chiloquin is led by one of the best backs in the league Al DeBortoli who scored 20 points last week in the Panthers 41-2 victory over Malin. Merrill has a top-notch back- field in quarterback Dale Kurtz. fullback Jim Thompson who tips the scales at a little over 200 pounds, Ken Smith and Bob Moore. Kurtz throws the ball well and calls plays well. Thomp son is a big fullback with power while Smith and Moore do most of the speed work. Ted Roller is Kurtz' favorite target. In addition to DeBortoli,' the Huskies will have to stop the breakaway antics of sophomore back Kim Hale for the Panthers Hale broke olf on runs of 70 and HO yards last week against Ma lin. The ball can be thrown with reasonable success against Chil oquin. Malin threw for ill yards against them while gaining only 66 on the ground. Bonanza should take Malin with little trouble. The Antlers are a hard-hitting team led by Pheiffer. He scored both touchdowns against the Huskies last week and is a terror on defense. Malin is a young team in a building sea son and have some key injuries to personnel. Jerry Morris and Stan llarrison, outstanding defensemen. are on the injured list and prob ably will not play. Dayton U. Handed 2-Year Probation played his first game at half back last week and runs as hard as Dahn or Hitchcock. He does little feinting affl sidestepping, but rather runs through tacklers. Mike Kitching will also see ac tion as a running back either at quarterback or halfback. Those who will see action on defense are Bill Mills, Thurston Henzel, Hitchcock. English, John Otterbcin, Kitching, Horn, Bud W'olter, Rick Gustafson. Terry Ec cles and John Robinson. The defensive unit for Crater w ill be Bransom, Ross Burd. Ray White, Willie Jones, John Harris, Mel Johnson. D.-ve Tredell, Den nis Ryerson, Mooster, Glines and McCalvy. This snould be one of the best games of the season on Modoc Field. There also could be a lot of scoring in the game Hie Peli cans want the Homecoming win for the alumns and to keep hope lor that first place lie. DAYTON, Ohio (UPI) The University of Dayton says it will accept the two-year probation handed it Wednesday by the Na tional Collegiate Athletic Associa tion (NCAA l without seeking a review. The University was accused of violating rules on aid to athletes and of allowing the 19fi0-61 fresh man basketball team to play an excessive number of games. Dayton, which last year won the National Invitation Tourna ment (NIT) championship and has three starters from that team returning this season, will be pro hibited from competing in the NCAA basketball championships during the probation period. The ban also extends to other invitational basketball events co operating with the NCAA unless prior contracts already have been signed. We accept the penalty im posed by the NCAA committee on infractions." the Very Rev. Ray mond A. Roesch, university pres ident, said in a statement. "Since there had never been any question in Ihe past about the games played by our fresh man teams, we were not aware that we were violating the code," he suid. Fr. Hoesch said that even be fore being advised by the com mittee, the university Student Welfare Council recommended more than a year ago that the ESS NAMES WIFE PRESIDENT NEW YORK (UPIi - Mary Mcndels Wismer. wife of New York Titan owner Harry Wismer, was namcn president oi ine American Football League club Wednesday.

RR on the North has been available to persons for the hunt ing of waterfowl for the past several years. The road into the pumping station has been left open with a parking area surrounding the pumping sta tion for cars nf hunters as an accommodation to those wanting to use the area. There has recently been a considerable amount of petty vandalism by persons who do not have the intelligence to realize that the right of entry and use of someone else's property is a privilege that should bo. appreciated and protected. The Sanitary District will hold in confidence any information that will lead to the apprehension and conviction of persons willfully destroying any prop erty in the area. Continued vandalism, if not sup pressed, will lead to the denial of any use of the area, and the arrest of any persons found thereon.

The 19(12-63 schedule was shortened considerably, he add ed. The committee also charge that the university on three oc casions during the college year of 1960-61 provided free transporta tion to a freshman basketball player so he could return home for personal reasons and paid transportation costs from his home to the campus in order for him to enroll. Fr. Foesch said the athletic de partment was motivated in this matter "by what it judged to be a hardship case and felt that they were justified." 'The incident referred to is that of Roger Brown returning to New York for appearance in a traffic court," he said. Brown, a member of the Fly ers' freshman team which played in the AAu tournament at Den ver in Wtl and lost in the sec ond game, was involved in a point-shave scandal which broke in May involving New York men. Brown was dropped from school after the investigation began into point-shaving. The probation means the Fly ers will not get Ihe opportunity to defend their NIT title, but is not expected to keep them from playing in the Holiday Festival at New York City for which they had contracted already. o.

Services are scheduled for lOi a.m. EST at W. Mack Johnson Funeral Home for the 67-year-old former official. Burial will be in Goshen Cemetery at Goshen, Ohio, near here. Goetz' death ended a stormy career which saw him dismissed from the umpire staff by Nation al League President Warren Giles in 1957 after sitting out that sea son because of illness. He had hoped to be named su-i pervisor of the league's umpires, but his long battle with the league office and with players H.4H WUUOli ll proved cosily as he failed to get the job. One n' his main points of c'onte-".;on was that umpires should be inrludetl in the play ers' pension fund.
