He's got an 11-man varsity Bell continued, "Our success the past two earsj a getting ready for the could be attributed (o a large degree to the generalship I of the seKOn tomorrow night and of quarterback Richie Richman and Ted Aceto. There's not a better halfback in the East in all-around ability than our halfback Larry Glueck." Richman is a lefthander like Oregon State's Heisman Trophy winner Terry Baker while Aceto throws right.

Rell will attempt to nullify Baker with his two signal-callers. As for Baker was this from Bell, "He must he greal. Anybody that can accumulate that much yardage has to be exceptional." In getting Oregon a and Baker the Liberty Bowl has the Heisman Trophy winner in its game for the second straight a Syracuse and Ernie Davis played in the game last year against Miami. Cold War "There's a cold war going in sports. I became aware of this in Belgrade when representatives of other countries came up to me and said 'you've got to a the "I always thought we played for the love of the game.

But I found out in Belgrade that whenever an American is beaten or a Russian is beaten that they put it in headlines in Europe." Louis ,1. Fisher, president of A a Athletic Union, made this pronouncement this week when AAU opened its 75th annual convention in Detroit. It's a clear indication of the importance the European nations place on international sports competition and why this country should never let down in its bid to remain on Seeks Replocemenf "It's my responsibility to find a new a I'll screen the applicants and I'll do the recommending. I'd like to have the job done in a month." Stanford University Athletic Director Al Masters was the speaker as he set about to up with the sixth head football coach in the history of the California school following firing earlier this week of Jack Curtice. There was a time when Stanford ranked with the best in the country year after year but it's been a long time since the Indians have made a strong bid for the Rose Bowl.

It's still a case of a coach having to produce. Curtice won just 13 games in five years so the handwriting was on the wall. one of them won't be available for a few weeks yet. "We're small and we're green, and right now I would have to say that we have a long way to go to become a good basketball team. "We.

It's quite an honor." That was the reaction of Hugh Campbell, the great pass catching end at Washington State University when he was informed a he had been named lineman of the week. In three years of play Campbell cautrht 176 passes for 2,353 yards, both major college records. In addition he scored 22 touchdowns which was just one short of the record. Looking to (he he says. "What I really want from a physical education major at WSU is a college coaching job.

But that all takes time. I've got my studies to concentrate on now." He's got the right a i You can be pure that he'll be coaching at some college one of these clays. and someone is going to have to take up the scoring slack left by their departure." In reality, Griffin and Lewis combined for an average of 33.5 points in every game last season. Griffin fired in 424 points for a 19.3 per game figure, second best in the district last year behind Uniontown's Don Yates. Lewis helped out with 312 points and 14.2 per game mark.

After these two, the scoring dropped off to the 101 Jerry Gallagher, also 'graduated, scored. Not only did he lose these boys by graduation, but one youngster who figured to move up to front line duty this season. Bob Hunter, moved to South Union and will be unavailable. "Our sophomores are going to have to do a big job for us this season since six of the varsity players are first year boys. "Like all sophomores, they make mistakes, but we hope they wilj learn as they go along and that way maybe we'll be able to finish stronger than we start.

"There are only three seniors on lie squad. Most of these boys will be coming back for one or two more years, so, in the distant future, things show signs of looking a little brighter." Two lettermen return in Matt Dodgson and Frank Gmitter. Dodgson, a senior, started most games last year and hit 92 points. Gmitter, a junior, started about half of the Mule games, earning his starting spurs after the league race began.

Bill McCargo is a junior along with Gmitter. McCargo saw spot duty in a reserve role, but spent most of last season playing junior varsity ball. The sophomores who are trying to move into the lineup are Ron Karpiak.

Butch Griffin, Larry Mayros, Paul Kezmarsky, Raine Clark and Chuck Matsko. Matsko was the high scorer on last year's junior bin team and is a good prospect. He's big and strong for a sophomore and could help. But, he sustained a broken wrist in football and won't be available until late next month or perhaps not until January. Crawford and assistant Tom Bozzi have spent a lot of time drilling the team on a ball control game since their lack of height isn't going to let them do much on the boards.

"With our lack of size we're going to have to work for a good shot." is the way the Mule tutor puts it. As he gels ready to move into his second season. Crawford tabs Scottdale and East Huntingdon as clubs he expects to he strong in the league race, and "you always have to figure on the defending champion (Frazieri as one of the teams to beat."

(AP)-The Vancouver Mounties, once one of the best-drawing teams in minor league baseball, were left Thursday with no league, no players and S75.000 in debte. The Mounties were out in the cold when it was decided at a meeting of the minor leagues in Rochester, N.Y., that the International and Pacific Coast Leagues would absorb the old American Association and operate as two 10-team leagues.

But the Mounties were also criticized for poor attendance in recent years. Other team? didn't like the traveling expenses involved.

Pat Studstill Doesn't Draw Laughs Now! By BRUNO L. KEARNS Of Pontiac Press DETROIT (AP) When Pat studstill reported to the Detroit Lions in 1961 at 170 pounds, 1 few gave him much of a chance of making the National Football teams. "I expected the Lions to take one look at me and tell me to keep my bags packed," says Studstill, a native of Shreveport, who low lives in Houston. "I must lave looked like some high school kid." Studstill has few college sts- in his favor. He was shuf- led around in his college days at Houston University.

After a leg njury his career ended early in lis senior year. He played 10 minutes. The Los Angeles Rams con- him and said they would draft him. "Just the idea of being drafted got me all excited," recalls Studstill, "but when the draft list was announced, I wasn't even mentioned. "It was silly to even think I could get to pro ball.

I even aughed at myself when I looked at my small legs and little body." One evening in the spring of 1961, however, the phone rang. On he other end was Bob Nuss- laumer. Detroit Lion scout. "You're welcome to report to our camp and try out as a free agent," Nussbaumer told Studstill. A former Houston assistant lad put in a strong recommenda- ion.

impressed a Jeorge 'Wilson in the 1961 exhibitions. He kept Studstill as an understudy to punter Yale Lary. Then when Terry Barr took over as a fulltime pass receiver, Stud- till became the man to return Hints and kickoffs. A dazzling 100-yard runbacfc of against the i a iears early in '61 was the payoff, was the second kickoff handled Studstill. For the '61 season he ranked ourth in the NFL on kickoff re- urns, averaging 28 yards.

On 16 eturns lie went 448 yards. This fall, a pair of great per- ormances against the Bears and ferns pushed him far ahead as the eague's leading punt return man. He had 343 yards in 19 returns for 18.1 average. When Barr was put out of action arly this season. Studstill moved nto the flanker's post and the ttle guy from Houston became ne of the Lions' most valuable nds.

"The way those guys in front re blocking, I should be geltins lore yardage." says Studstill'in modestly crediting the blockers his success. "But I shouldn't complaining. After all every- ne told me I didn't have a chance make this league." After the Rains' game in which carried the football 113 yards four mnbacks, Studstill got on -he scale. The needle barely eachetl 165. The program had im at 180; he thought he was "Well," said Studstill, "so what I am (he lightest oUensive play- in the league" 1 PAT STUDSTILL.
