ROSEBURG NEWS-REVIEW, ROSEBURG,- OREGON, FRIDAY, MAY 13, 1938. Sport Still Possible for Few Days at Red Butte Site, Trio Learns. With the whole countryslilo basking under a warm May sun, three members or tho newly or punlzetl Umpqua Ski club, Ivan Hatfield, George Churchill and Maynard Bell, trekked to the sum. mit of Red Butte, proposed winter sports playground area, and spent the entire day enjoying uluiost per fect Bitting conditions . The purpose of the late-season trip was to make final enow meat, urements for the year. An ac curate record on the amount of snowfall In the area has been kept this past winter by the local forestry office to-be used In de termining the feasibility of estab lishing a winter sports playground in that sector. The skiing party was highly encouraged by the amount of snow still on the ground from Watson's cabin to the summit. Enough snow remains at Watson's cabin to afford skiing, to a limited extont, for the next few days. More than 4 feet of old snow was found on the northern slopes and on the summit of Hcil Dutte, but the warm weather of the past week Is rapidly melting winter's last vestige. Tree Blockade Removed The trio journeyed to within a mile of Wutson's cabin by nuto. No difficulty was encountered in mak ing tho trip other than the task of removing several trees Which had fallen across1 the road.' Several huge trees In one jam, effectively barring further travel by auto, forced the party to make the rcsf of the way on foot. Skiing snow was found approximately a mile from the summit. The skiers reached tho lookout station at noon and consumed tho rest of the dny skillng on the near-' by slopes. A side-trip was taken by Goorgo Churchill to Peter and Paul prairie on the northeastern slopes of lied Butte, nbout a mile and a halt from the summit, for the purpose of investigating new skiing terrain. Churchill reported an excellent area available, offer ing to the advanced skier and more venturesome some of the finest cross country and slalom slopes yet discovered. More than 5 reet of fairly fast "corn" snow covered tho entire area. , 3-Mlle Hike "Required Barring wet weather today or tomorrow which would make the road impossible to travel, excel lent skiing can be found lit the vicinity of Hod Butte summit and Peter and Paul prairie. Good ski ing snow will probably bo avail able for a week or more, depend ing upon weather conditions. To reach suitable skiing snow n hike or. a mroximaieiy d nines wiiidk rair snapo, u ib.biui rutiKii tuiu lif ted from winter's wear and tour and parties planning on skiing In that locality over the week-end should not attempt the drive from the Little river road unless exper ienced in tho art of negotiating narrow, winding mountain , roads. Chains are not necessary. The en tiro group of skiers returned with beautiful sunburns, and It tho weather conlinues to hold clear and warm, precautionary meas ures should bo taken.

By SID FED Kit (Associated Press Sports Writer) Itawhide I.ou Gehrig's dimples broke through a rueful smile, fie had lust finished fanning for the second timo against Uohby Fell er's dlpsy-do's. "Boy," he said, "anybody's go ing to be plentv lucky to get a hit off that kid this year." It didn't matter that .Rawhide stepped, up to the plate a few minutes later and blasted one of Bobby's fast balls out of tho lot for two runs; nor did it matter much that Bobby, in taking a 3-2 decision from the world champion Yankees yesterday, was lucky in being presented with a pair of un earned runs, which allowed the Cleveland Indians to finish on nv4ittivdU1 muuetf -was Hint the rignt-arm riue trom loway is su far improved over lust year that ho looks like two other fellows. Ills fast ball, which they've called tho hottest thing since Waller Johnson was whistling 'em around American league ears, is still a fancy dido that conies up to the pinto with a hop that might take your chin 'off if you're standing in closo. Added to that is a brand now curve that breuks across the platter like a hot knito slicing through' butter. A lot of credit, as has been whis pered before, goes to Itollle Hems ley,. 'who, for all bis playboyisb- ncss, is improving the kid -more every time out. Itnllio knows American , league batters, a n d when he's working, is up near the top In handling pitchers. An ex perienced hand, he has what Bob by lacks years of service around the circuit. Fumbles Hurt Yankees The most peculiar thing about Bobby's duel with Lolly Gomez yesterday, however, wasn't so much the fact that be allowed only five hits, fanned nine and walked only three. It was that DiMagglo and Dickey, who are grout defensive ball players any tlmo and greatest "in tho clutclu" came apart In just that spot. Kadi fumbled an easy one In tho sixth inning to ruin Gomez's neat liAir hlt job of flinging and set up two ol the Tribe's three tallies.

Jackson first place in tho American league, after a one-day slay, and boosted the Nats back to the top. Green berg's seventh homer of tho sea son almost ruined Deshong's classy classy pitching, but Wash ington had just enough edge to hang on. Like the America a league, the National presented a curtailed pro gram of two games, with the Chi cago Cubs' "noble experiment" batting order trouncing tho Mrook- lyns, 9-5, and Cincinnati's Hods blanking tho Boston Bees, 1-0. The Cubs found a bitting punch by boosting old Tony Lazzerl in to tho cleanup spot and moving C!alan up to filth place. Tony clouted . four-for-fonr and drove in five runs and (Iiilun took cure of the rest of the situation with three hits and four tallies butted in. Paul Derringer's six-hit. elbow ing and jlyers' homer and four runs balled in turned the trick for the Kcds, as KholTuer's hard luck hung on.
