Myrtle Creek To Battle Chiefs In Exhibition Tilt There'll be a hot time in the ol' town tonight, as the old saying goes, when the Myrtle Creek baseball club arrives lor an ex hibition tilt with the Roseburg Umpqua Chiefs starting 8 o'clock at Finlay Field. Although the Chiefs are rarln' to even a previous loss handed them by the Myrtle Creek organi zation, the visitors are equally anxious to prove the league win was not an accident. Roseburg suffered its first league defeat at the hands of Myrtle Creek and as a result, the south city visitors now head the league with five wins and only one loss. Roseburg will find the Myrtle Creek club primed for action. Bill Willis, manager of the Myrtle Creek team, was in the News Review office yesterday. He said he wished to answer Roseburg Manager Earl Sargent's renuuk in the June 22 Issue of the News Review, stating that the Myrtle Creek club uses "10 men." "Ve are of the opinion," said Willis, "that Roseburg also had 10 men on the field at all times. The 10th man being none other than Earl Sargent.

Clarenbach ran an architec tural service bureau and was en gaged in related fields a number of years before the war. After Dec. 7, 1941, he, was called into the Navy.

He engaged in his first "enterprise" as a bootblack, but saw he was "going nowhere fast." When he entered the merchan dising field he met Fred Lund, who "took me under his wing." Nevue attended a merchandising school in Chicago, later returned to Yakima and took over a posl- lose. We hope that in the future, sportsmanship will reign on both sides.

In 1936 he en tered Washington State College at Pullman, which then had the only veterinary school in the Northwest. After graduation, Dr. Jones took his interneship in Albany.

Education Aid By BRUCE BIOSSAT Sometimes politics is called "the art of the possible." It is a way of saying that in this imperfect world of compromises among men, ideal solutions and 100 per cent devotion to principles cannot always be achieved. The phrase may apply to Gen eral Elsenhower's comments on federal aid to education. He took a stand on principle a habit that is one of the reasons he is so much admired by Americans generally. But practical-minded citizens may question whether the general In this instance is facing the reali ties. Writing to a New York con gressman, Elsenhower, as presi dent of Columbia University, ex pressed opposition to pending bills that would grant from $260, 000,000 to $300,000,000 in federal funds to the states to help pay teachers' salaries and other school costs. He made plain his protest was against general aid to all states. He views that plan as promoting what he considers a dangerous trend toward centralized govern ment and possibly socialism. But the general added that he does favor federal grants to the neediest states, those now unable to maintain oroDer minimum ed ucation standards'. He would like to see those states raised to a plane of equality with other more fortunate sections. That, then, is the principle on which" Elsenhower is standing. Not aid to all, but to the poorer states so they may equalize their minimum educational opportuni ties with the wealthier states. Now, actually, the general aid to education bills before Congress embody this principle. They would would use a rather com plex formula to attain the very equalization Eisenhower seeks. But these same measures go be yond that and offer a flat grant for each school-age child, bo that all states will get some benefits Stanton, editor of the News-Review. As the Myrtle Point club Is In process of reorganization and project planning. Yeager and oth er speakers outlined the program of local and state organization, emphasizing the need for unifi cation of sports clubs through statewide Federation. Jack Hayes, Wesllake, presi dent of the Southwestern Ore gon Sportsmen's Association, which includes in membership all clubs of Western Lane, Douglas, Coos and Curry counties, gave a report on the convention of the Federation at Bend. Visitors also were present from the sports club at Coquille. Suggestion was made that clubs affiliated with the Southwestern Oregon Sportsmen's Association and the Umpqua Basin Conserva tion. Council arrange an annual picnic for members. Tentative plans were made to hold the first picnic at the grounds of the Rose burg Rod and Gun Club. No defi nite date was proposed. jpWIU.H . .. , 1"'"""" ' """"1 Eifart'Lipr-Btcr Weitern Dittribtuing regardless of their wealth. The general bills are a frank compromise between the equali zation idea and a broader ap proach. What led to it? Senator Taft and other backers of the federal aid plan decided Congress would not support it if benefits were to be limited to per haps a dozen poor states, mostly in the South. They reasoned that richer states, plagued by educational troubles of their own and yelping over shrunken tax revenues, would not like paying the freight for poor states and getting noth ing for themselves. In other words, their1 decision was in recognition of what they considered the political realities. They were trying to legislate ac cording ,o "the. art pf the pos sible." .' Even with all states Included, New York and a few other weal thy areas protested against the measures on the ground they were .not getting enough In re turn for their big payments to the federal treasury. These out bursts made the compromising senators look very practical. If they have gauged the reali ties correctly, a bill based strict ly on the equalization principle will lose out. And If the House takes to heart Elsenhower's warnings about a more general plan, the outcome could well be no aid of any kind for any state. By asking Congress to act on principle alone, the general has put that body In an uncomfortable position it . usually manages to avoid.

UP) Intra-party politics drew top Interest ol delegates to the Na tional Young Republican Federa tion convention which opened yesterday. In a pre-conventlon addresB to members of the Western States Regional Council, Philip Willkie, Indiana state representative and son of the late Wendell Willkie, urged his party to foster unity between business and 1 a b or groups. He said the conflict between labor and business tended to push American politics Into the Karl Marx class warfare pattern and to advance the cause of those who seek to destroy the private enterprise system. "Businessmen," he said, "talk free enterprise to each other. Labor people talk to each other about the horrors of the Taft Hartley Act. The two groups meet only in conflict at the bargain ing table, in a strike or in a leg islative fight." He suggested organization of FISHERMEN! The Tom-Cod ond Snappers entered Sunset Bay last week.
