(UPP Jim Sutherland, who developed some of Ihe finest passing teams in the nation during his eight years as head football coach at Washington State Uni versity, will be looking for a new job when he sends his I West squad onto the field in ! this year's Shrine game. Stan Bates, athletic director at WSU, announced Thursday I afternoon that Sutherland's con ! tract was being terminated Jan. .in. 1904, by mutual agreement. That will be almost eight years to the day from live date in 1956 when "Suds" look over the reins of the Cougars' sagging football fortunes from the hands of ousted Al Kircher. Bates, in making Hie an nouncement, said the "move is being made in the best inter ests of the athletic program" and added that a settlement was being worked out for the ( $1637 Falls.

Sutherland said Ihe "football program here is untenable and the only way they could do any thing alxnit it was to make a change." "It's always the coach's fault when things aren't going well," he added. "That's to be expect ed. I have no bitter feelings to ward the school." Sutherland was named to his first head coaching job here on Jan. 18, 1936, after three years as an assistant to Pappy Wal dorf al California and to John Cherberg at the University of Washington. Sutherland's Cougars during his tenure, posted a mark of 37 wins. 39 losses and four tics. His 3-6-1 mark in his first cam paign as a head coach was re spectable and he followed that with 6-4 and 7-3 seasons in 1957 and 1958. In 1958 the Cougars tied for the Pacific Coast Conference crown with a 6-2 league mark, but missed the trip to t he Kose Bowl when they dropped a 34-14 early season contest to Califor nia.

But one victory and a lie in the first six games of l!Ki.1 start ed the inevitable rumblings and they persisted although the Cou gars closed fast with wins over Idaho and Stanford and a sur prisingly strong showing against Washington in the final half of the season.

Johnson, who lost his title to Willie Pastrano in Las Vegas June 1. was rated a 2-1 favor ite over Hank, a former middle weight, in the 10-round bout at the Blue Horizon Arena. Johnson, frustrated in his at tempts to get a return match with Pastrano, hopes a big win over Hank will force the new champion to give him a bout. Hank, 2fi, feels an upset win over the 35-ycar-old Johnson will boost his chances of meet ing Pastrano, who has been re luctant to meet tlie man from whom he won tlie title.

S7 Height Seen Big Factor As Pels Face Roseburg By BILL GOIXD Herald and News Sports Editor Tiw moment of truth arrives for the Pelicans. It's questionable if KU could have found a more formidable opponent against w hich to open the new basketball campaign than the potent Roseburg In dians. A good indication of how strong or how weak tlie 13 edition of the Pelicans will be is expected to be determined tonight and Saturday niglit at Pelican Court as the tall and talented Tribe arrives. The Indians will send one of Ihe tallest units to he seen against the Pels in the two game set tliis weekend, with four of the five starters over the six-foot mark and other skyscraper reserves. Te Pels will counter with live same number over the six-foot mark, but w ith a slight ly shorter average. leading the Indian attack is senior big man Bruce O'Neill at 6-8 handling (he post spot and flanked by 6-3 Gary Hill contests in the jambs. In other single action, the Lakcview Honkers of Lite Rogue Valley League, trado a pair of games with the Burns Inland ers, traveling to Burns tonight and hosting the inlanders Sat urday night. The Tulelake Honkers open aclion at Klamath "Falls tonight meeting the Pelican Sophs in a preliminary contest to tlie Rosc-burg-Pelican meeting. And the two teams clash again Saturday nignt as a prelim to the Tribe Pelican battle. Klamalh Falls opens play entertaining Roseburg tonight and Saturday night, while the Pelican wrestlers sl.nt action Saturday in the annual David Douglas Tournament in Port land. This is tlie lineup for county and area prep teams this week end as tlie new season of bas ketball and wrestling opens. More People and 6-5 John Johnson. Out front the Tribe will have Dave Sev a 1 1 16-1) and 5-10 Alike Sloan. If needed tlie Indians may caN upon Bob McKee (6-0) at guard and additional under neath height in Keith Burke (6-61 and Bruce Wasson (6-2). Figured to go for the Peli cans is Jim Patzke (6-1) and 6-4 Terry Ash at forwards and 6-6 Gene Kingsbury at center, with Lanny Guyer (5-8) and John Jendrzejewskl (tt-1) at guards. Slated for reserve action are Larry Binney (5-9). Bob Moore (B-l) and Steve Baker (6-21. The meeting between the Pels and tlie Tribe opens the new campaign for both teams and renews a scries which last year found tlie Pelicans on the long end of tlie score in the two-game set at Roseburg. A big difference for both teams, however, is the lack of outstanding players of last year lost either through graduation or transfer. For the I n d i a n s, it's the stale's leading point - producer of 1IHS2-B3 Spike Sloore, now a freshman at Willamette. Gone from tlie Pelican roster is Haft Holman, a 6-4 forward now a member of the lledford Black Tornado. Moore and Holman were two of the key figures in last year's pair of games which saw the Mel Takes Top Award EUGENE. Ore.

Do More Business Through Newspapers Pelicans take wins by scores of 45-W in the first contest and 56-54 in double overtime the following night. Both teams have been work ing hard on both offense and defense this week in prepara tion for the important non counters. And both mentors have re mained mum on their game strategy to be employed. Because of the height factor, tlie favored role tips slightly for the Tribe, although the scoring potential owned by the Pelicans, if it develops suffi ciently, could even the odds. "Without question, this will be tlie biggest test we'll have all year. Roseburg's height pre sents a big problem which will have to be overcome," coach Al Keck observes. "I just don't know what we'll have this year, whether it will be a strong club or not," Rose burg mentor Curt Jarvis opines. A certainty, however, is that tlie Tribe can tlirow an experi enced club against tlie Pels, with four of five or all five starters seniors. The Pels ended pre-game work Thursday afternoon with a session, devoted to polishing both otlense and defense. What defenses to be wit nessed toniglit is a question, although the Pels win probably go man-to-man and the Tribe possibly tlie same. The Indians did employ a zone alignment against the Pels last year and this is a good possibility again for this set. Offensively a pattern attack is a possibility for "both teams, with tlie Tribe perhaps using its supply of height in a double post arrangement. Still, tliese are all just pos sibilities the camps of both teams have remained silent. The genial Roseburg mentor did offer the following answer in jest to tlie question of the supply of height available on the Indian roster: "We've been feeding tliem 'Klamath Falls pills." " However it was attained. It figures to be a large factor in the outcome of the big two-game set. Tipoff time both nights Is slated for 8 p.m. 3226 So. 6th TU 4-5145
