Chiefs To Battle Powers Tonight Rosehurg's Umpqua Chiefs are especially anxious to win to night's game, when they meet the Powers Athletic club In an exhibition tussle at Finlay field. Last year Just about this time Powers defeated the Chiefs by a 5-3 score. The Chiefs are ex tremely anxious to erase this black mark from the books for evermore, according to Chiefs' Manager Earl Sargent. Tonight's contest may be a grim affair, as either Vic Lewis or Wally Richardson take to the hill. Every pitching device in the book is expected to be used by either of the revenge-seeking hurlers, Manager Sargent di vulged. If the Infield doesn't go to pot and muff the ball too many times, a new high In scores may be set tonight by the Chiefs. Game time is 8:30 p. m.

Dusette vs. Karlinko Major interest, however, will be centered around the one-hour headllner between Leo Karlinko, the "Mad Russian," and Georges Dusette, the French-Canadian "strong boy." ' Karlinko was nearly mobbed here several weeks ago following his questionable tactics against a popular fne, and he has asked for police protection when he meets Dusette this week. The foreign villain will inevitably employ his usual illegal style, but Dusette has had much experience against meanles and is expected to lake the measure of the Russian. His full-nelson Is a hold that has stymied many of the world's top Tatmen, and Karlinko is expected to be no exception to the rule. The entire program has all of the cauliflower earmarks of be ing one of the roughest, most col orful and exciting mat shows of the season, and a large crowd is anticipated. The Williams-LaP-lle opener will "'t under way at 8:30 p. m. Elton Owen, after a week's absence, will referee both bouts.

Can the newest Cleveland In dian, Luke Easter, provide the long ball punch the Tribe needs to overtake the New York Yan kees? The man for whom Luke play ed first base with the San Diego Padres thinks he can. Bill Starr, San Diego presi dent, watched the big Negro slugger make his first appear ance here last night as a pinch hitter in the 12-inning tussle Cleveland won from Chicago's White Sox, 6-5. "We hate to lose him," sail Starr, "but he's a big league hitter. Last night was Easter's first time in play since June 19 when he left San Diego. The fans buzzed as the six foot, four-inch 240-pounder took his stance at the left side of the plate fvcing Chico Pieretti, who at five-seven is one of the smallest hurlers. Bob Kennedy was on third base, there was one out and the score was tied 5-5. A called strike, three balls, a foul, then Luke nipped the ball right at shortstop Luke Appling for a ground out while Kennedy held third. This failed to dampen Easter's elation at becoming an Indian. After the game, he said hap pily: "It really feels good to be wealing this Cleveland uniform. I'm looking forward to that firs' home run, too. New Pitching Test For Youngsters Scheduled Another test of Ditching skill by Roseburg youngsters will be demonstrated Saturday mornlnij at 10 o'clock.
