AN UNBEATABLE Former Boxing Great Pegs Current Champ P.) OSCAR FRAI.KY in Sports Writer PARIS (UP1 Georges Carpcntlcr, a boxing legend in France, today labeled heavy weight champion Charles iSon nvl Liston an unbeatable "gor illa." "They have alwas said if you could teach a gorilla to fight he would he the greatest of all time." analyzed Carpen tier. "Without meaning to in sult Liston, from what I have seen he comes closest of any boxer I have ever known to fit ting that description." The tall, dapper Carpenlier. wearing his 69 years lightly, in looking back at the past said he regarded Jaek Dempsey as the greatest of all previous champions and asserted that Dempsoy In his prime would have knocked out Gene Tunney with relative ease.

Namely: The weather. Oregon is favored. ' Rick Redman. Junior Coffey. Item one weather. Oregon has a spcedboy backfield that needs a dry turf to function at its best. And Multnomah Sta dium is not exactly known for sure footing, even without rain. It's rained most of the week more is predicted. Oregon's plastic baseball cover was shipped up from Eugene today to help cover the field. Item two favored. This i s something that hasn't happened to Oregon in a game with Washington since 1954. Odds makers have made the Web foots a three-point choice. No one likes to be favored in this one but Oregon can take some consolation. It won in 1954 26 7. Item three Redman. This guy just can't be human, say rivals. The best guard in the country, say many opposing coaches. To score, tlie Webfoots have to pet by him. He also does a tremendous Job of punt ing. Item four Coffey: This is tlie great unknown. Is the big full back really in shape after on ly four plays all season those against Stanford last week? If he is he could be the de ciding factor on a wet field. Of course, dregon has a few things going for it, too. Like a four-game winning streak, an Ail-American named Mel Ren fro, one of the sharpest quar terbacks In tlie country in Bob Berry, and some pretty fair linemen including John Wil cox, a tough 230-pound guard who could give even Redman a bad afternoon. 'GORILLA' Tunney knocked him out in the 15th round. But the fight which stands out most vividly in his mind is the one in which he and Pcmp sey drew Uic first million dol lar gate at Boyle's 30 acres in Jersey City in 1921. "My, how he could hit," Car pent ier saia reflectively rubbing his long, jutting chin as he re called his own knockout. "1 wasn't built to be a fight er," said tlie man who was a product of the French mining country and now runs a suc cessful restaurant in the heart of Paris. "My arms were loo short. Not anything like Lis ton's. However, I had good legs and a good punch." While the boxing history books regard Carpentier'a ven. two against Pempsey as a defi nite mismatch. Carpenticr still holds that he thought he had a good chance against the Manas sa Mauler. Wright raddrd "I figured that if 1 hit him. 1 could put him away." he said in his slow, precise manner of speaking. "But actually, I guess I was loo small." In boxing, faces may change but. It is apparent, methods al Crown; .U.$. Team Made Favorite By LKO H. PETERSEN I PI Sport Editor PARIS (UPI) - A healthy but tired Arnold Palmer went out today in quest of one of the two major golf titles he never has won the individual cham pionship in the Canada Cup and International Golf Association matches. Teamed with Jack Nicklaus, the United States team was a top heavy favorite to win the team title. Palmer and Nick laus also were the choices to battle it out for the individual championship as 66 goiters from 33 nations teed off in the 11th annual IGA championship. "There are two champion NEWS, Klamath Falls, Oregon This is tlie game that tests the durability of ancient Mult nomah Stadium. Tlie crowd figures to be at least 35,000, no matter what the weather. And thousands more will be seated in Memorial Coliseum watching the game on closed-circuit tele vision at $2 a throw. Washington, although only 2-3 for the season, is 1-0 in the Big Six and has Rose Bowl hopes especially if it gets by South ern Cal next week. But t h e Huskies won't be pointing for that one here. This is the pres tige game of the Pacific North west. The last four games between these rivals have seen Washing ton score 47 points and Oregon 46. Washington won twice, Ore gon edged the Huskies 7-6 here in 1961 and last year's Seattle Jackson, Hood Top OCC Stars PORTLAND (UPI) -Mike Hood, who gained 168 yards in 16 carries and scored two touchdowns for Southern Oregon Saturday was named Oregon Collegiate Conference back of the week today. Hood was a standout in the Red Raiders' 29-14 win over Oregon Tech. Lineman of the week honors went to end Steve Jackson of Oregon College of Education. He caught six passes for 124 yards in OCE's 21-13 win over Eastern Oregon. Conference statistics show Frank Ellis of OCE as the rush ing leader with 376 yards Oregon Tech's Mike Glines took over the passing lead this week w ith 49 completions in 106 attempts for 578 yards. ter little. Because Carpentier smilingly revealed that in his fight with the 188-pound Demp sey his own announced weight was padded to make the bout apivar more even. "They announced my weight as 172 pounds," he said with amusement. "Actually I weighed 168 pounds. The 50 pound difference was too much " It was. Dempsey flattened him in four rounds. Carpentier admits to being saddened at the international "death" of boxing "It is dying all over," he said. "It is a thing of many factors. You have to be born a fighter. Maybe it is that today the young have it easier. The deaths in boxing have hurt it, too. And so has television, al though in France they do not pay for the bouts as they do in the United States. "Who knows?" he shrugged in the manner of a man who might have been saying "Who cares?" Boxing Is. to the "Orchid Man" a thing of the past. He is patently happy that he never had to face a liston. Dempsey was more than enough. ships I want to win that I have n't," Palmer said. "This is one of them. The other is the PGA." 1 Palmer, golf's all-time money winner, has won all of the other major titles the sport has to of fer. This will be his third shot in this international compe tition. He teamed with the vet eran Sam Snead to win the Canada Cup which goes to the victorius team in 1960 and again last year. Finished Third In the individual race, he fin ished third in I960 when Flory Van Donck of Belgium won and last year at Buenos Aires he tied Snead for second place Thursday, October 24, 1963 game ended in a wild 21-21 tie. That one is remembered as the contest which saw Washington fans pour into the end zone on the game's final play to help break up a desperate, long Ore gon pass for a winning TD.
