John Ralston, who used to flatten
Stanford halfbacks when he
played (or the arch-rival Univers
ity of California, went over to the
enemy Saturday as the Indians
new football coach.
The highly successful Utah
State mentor was hired by Stan
ford Friday for a tliree year per
iod at a salary believed to be in
the $17,000 range. President J. E.
Wallace Sterling announced Ral
ston's selection with the appoint
ment subject to approval by the
school's board of trustees.
Ralston, 35, didn't get the call
until after Bob Reynolds for
mer Stanford football great had
vainly tried to make Navy's
Wavne Hardin chanse his mind
about slaying on with the Middies.
Hardin had figured prominently
in the Stanford race until he had
signed a new two year pact on
Wednesday to return to Annapo-,
lis.
Ralston succeeds Jack Curtice.
whose inability to please various
alumni factions is said to have
boon one of the reasons for his
downfall. In his five years at
Stanford. Curtice had a mark of
only 14 wins against 36 losses.
Ralston, who posted a mark of
31 victories. 11 losses and one tie
in (our years at Utah Sta'e,
learned o( lus selection after he
had given up waiting (or word in
the Bay area and went back to
Logan, Utah.
"In John Ralston we are get
ting a man who will do the kind
of a job we want." said athletic
director Al Masters. "He will
coach hard-nosed, interesting, and
winning football. We know that
John will be popular with his
players as well as the other stu
denLs, faculty, alumni and fans."
Ralston returned to Utah
Wednesday when a period of si
lence enshrouded the university
shortly alter he seemed to have
llie job in his back pocket. Then
he was notified of his selection
Friday.
"I am pleased to accept a
new responsibility in representing
Stanford University." said
Ralston, who was a crashing line
backer for tro Cal (lose Bowl

teams. "I have enjoyed the many
associations I have had with play
ers, alumni and administration of
Utah Stale."
He took over the Aggies in 1959
and got them off the floor with a
sharp running attack out of
variable T which he had learned
under Lynn Waldorf at Cal. Utah
State gained the Sun and Gotham
Bowls under his direction, was
undefeated in 1961 and twice
shared the Skyline Conference ti
tle with Wyoming. Much of the
success was traced to his recruit
ing abilities.
It was after the 11 season
that the Utags played in the
Gotham Bowl and lost to Baylor,
24-9. Ralston's halftime talk to
his team was carried on televi
sion.
Ralston is only the seventh man
to coach the Indians since the
famed era of Pop Warner in
1924-1932.
He said that it would take him
"at least a week or so before I
can complete an organization and
announce assistants" for the new
job.
Tony Knap, Ralston s assistant
at Utah State, seemed in line to
succeed him as the Aggies' head
coach unless he joined Ralston at
Stanford.
Crucial Bout Set
For 'Old' Brown
HOUSTON I UPI l -"Old Bones"
Joe Brown, 36. should discover
once and for all if he's at the end
of his fistic career when he takes
on 22-year-old Tony Noriega
Tuesday night in Houston.
Brown, who reigned as light
weight champ for more than five
years, is faced with that question
posed to all fighters in their thir
tieswhen to quit.
His handlers claim Broun still
has what it takes. They say he is
sharper than at any time since he
went to Las Vegas last April and
lost his world title to Carlos Ortiz.
Brown looked bad in that fight.
He admits it himself.
I just couldn't get going in tltc
Ortiz fight," he said recently
while training lor the Noriega
bout. "The liarder I tried the
worse I looked you know, like I
was a novice or something."
Joe didn t look much better in
his comeback" when he blew a
decision to Luis Molina at San
Jose. Calif., last fall.

fights a lot like him. A former

Henley Frosh
Tip Pelicans
The Henley freshmen wrestling
le;im downed tlie Klamath fresh
men at Henley Saturday alter
noon m an abbreviated eight
matches, 1M5.
Tlie match went down to tlie fi
nal bout when Henley's heavy
weight Nick Carr pinned Ron Har-
ty of KU in 3 20 for tlie victory.
Tlic Pelicans led 1.VI4 going into
tlie tmal match.
Their were only eight match
es because Henley didn't have
the hos to put into all the
weight events. They had to for
feit three bouts to KU which
didn't count toward scores in tins
meet.
Tom Morrow of KU sot up tlie

is a move-in fighter with a free
swinging style that brought him
a 6-1-1 record last year.
Brown used to cat fighters like
that for breakfast. Can he now?
"It's a challenge," Brown said
'I like a challenge and I want to
now me people i can come
back."
Tliere's another reason Brown
would like to come back money.
Joe admits he made some bad
investments but denies he blew
his money on the golf course or
in high living.
"The guys I play golf with
couldn't afford to play for big
money," be said. "And I never
tried to live as high as Louis,
Robinson or Moore."
If he's washed up as a fighter,
Brown said he may go into radio
or public relations. Tuesday
night's fight slmild be a good ex
ample of vocational guidance.
The Klamath Union Peli
cans couldn't quite hold on Fri
day night and they let the blazing
Crater Comets catch them in the
closing seconds to tie the game
and then win in an overtime pe
riod, 59-57.
It was the second loss in the
Southern Oregon , Conference for
the Pelicans and left them with
an 8-2 record for the season and
a 2-2 league record in the torrid
race. It gave the Comets a 3-1
record in league and a 9-1 season
record.
Crater, thus, was tied with
Grants Pass for tlie leadership.
The Cavemen were idle Friday
night. Medford swamped Ashland
76-41, in the other game and is
tied with Klamath with a 2-2 mark
It looked as if the Pelicans
would pull another of their near-l
patented close ones out of the fire
Friday night. They had the lead
when Fred Kelley took a shot
with 33 seconds and the Pels hold
ing a two-point lead. He missed
and Crater got the ball. But Hal
Holman was fouled and he
missed on his charity toss with
16 seconds remaining. Howard
Tomlinson put in the tying basket
for the Comets just before the
gun sounded to send the game
into an overtime.
The Comets pulled out the game
in the overtime by two points in a
game which should have been the
Pelicans' victory.
But Coach Al Keck wasn't dis
couraged by the loss. In fact, he
was encouraged. "It was our best
game of the season. We still are
making too many mistakes against
the good teams and that is what
is beating us. The inexperience
showed up last night and beat
us. Keck said.
"We feel that we can beat any
body at any time, now," he said.
If we can slow down Crater s
fast team, we think we can make
most of the other teams play our
style of ball. We slowed the game
down against Crater and we
looked real good until a while in
the third period when we ran
with them and it hurt us. But
we are now making up for the
inexperience a lot with scrap,"
he explained.
"Hal (Holmanl did a real good
job in the first half with the press
in getting the ball down. And
Grovcr Dahn played by far his
best game of the season. He
brought the ball down on t h e
press most of the time and did
real good job. Wayne Cham-
berland had one of his best games,
too. He scored 19 points and did
a real good job under the boards,"
Keck voiced.
'We've got to get more work
out of Kelley (Frcdi, though. He
has been pretty cold in the past
few games. He has hit only five
field goals in the last 10 quarters
of basketball. If we keep improv
ing and make fewer mistakes, we
just might be around high enough
to make the state tournament. We
hope so," Keck said.
Chamberland led the Pelicans
with 19 points while Holman
picked up 15 and Dahn had his
best night of the season with 11.
Holman also picked off nine re
bounds while Kelley and Cham
berland got eight each. Tomlin
son was the leader for Crater with
21 pointa and Lou Alvarez added
20. Mike G lines, the league's lead,
ing scorer, was held without a
field goal and only a pair of char-
ity tosses for two points. Paul
Bransom added 14 for the win
ners,
The Comets won the game at
the charity line. The Pelicans had
the Comets in the field goal de
partment with 23 to Crater's 21
But Crater hit 17 of 23 free tosses
for a great 73.9 per cent and the
Pels connected on 11 of 19 for
57.9 per cent. The Pelicans hit
very respectable 23 of 53 from
the field for a very fine 43.4 per
centage.

Mike Todd with 15. He made nine

did with us in football this year
The Owls won over the SOC
Red Raiders by a score of 96
to 92. With two-minutes and eight
seconds left in the game and a
14-point lead, Coach Partlow
pulled the starters and gave the
second string a little experience.
With 10 seconds to go and the
lead reduced to three points, he
put the first string back in.
"Another basket and one of our
boys fouling could have tied the
score," Partlow said. "When the
reserves come out for practice
for four months, we need to give
them an opportunity to get ex
perience. We probably could have
built up a larger score, but wc
are not trying to retaliate for
anything. If you try to humble
the other team it usually comes
back to you, at least in future
seasons."
"Van Zitek lore that zone up
from the outside," is another
comment from Willie Anderson
Van made five slick baskets from
the outside plus five of seven
free throw attempts. Sammy
Smith topped tlie scoring with 32
points and Willie was second with
25.

Machen Looks
To New Life
SAX FRANCISCO (UPD-Eddic
Machen looked toward a new life
today when he will beat Sonny
Liston for the world heavyweight
title and have somebody else man
aging him beside Sid Flaherty.
The 30-year-old challenger was
discharged from the Presbyterian
Medical Center Friday to end a
month during which he underwent
psychiatric treatment after threat
ening to commit suicide.
Pronounced well, by his phy
sician, Machen walked arm-in-arm
out of the center Friday with his
petite wife, Charlotte, and a crowd
of relatives and well wishers.
I feel great," he said. "I ex
pect to get a new manager and
then I want a warmup fight, meet
top contender next and then
meet Liston again.
I will beat him," Machen add
ed. "I could have beaten him at
Seattle in 1960 but I had a very
sore right arm."
Edward Fleishell, Machen's law
yer, said that negotiations were
in progress to sever connections
between the heavyweight contend
er and rlahcrty.
weekend is no small accomplish

morning when he purchased mit

Those who have been watching
Owl games are commenting on
the tremendous improvement of
6' 10" Ron Wilkerson. Partlow is
playing him as often as possible
in order to get him In the ex
perienced column.
Jim alsu appreciates the re
placement of the basketball play
ers which he lost at the end of
fwll term. For awhile he didn't i
have enough players for scrim
mage practice. Chuck Nagley
from Yamhill and Jim Stinkard
from Fossil joined the club at
the beginning of winter term. In
order to swell the ranks Chuck
Hawkins, the 6'4" football end
and baseball (irst baseman, and
Jim Keller of Estacada, a base
ball pitcher, also joined the club.
Bob Barton from McMinnville
and Howard Meyer (rom The
Dalles joined the wrestling squad
this term. Both have wrestled in
high school. Meyer, at 205 pounds,
will wrestle in the heavyweight
class, but he will not be eligible
until mid-term. He is a transfer
from Portland State College.
Coach Morris said that he would
give his wrestlers a couple of
