Mewcombe To Face Reynolds In First Game That's Indication Now At let Favor Yankees, 2 To 1, To Capture Series Bv JACK HAND. NEW YORK, Oct. 4 Don Newcombe and Allle Reynolds emerge ai the probable pitchers lor tomorrow'! Brooklyn -New York Yankee world series opener after a mind-reading session with the opposing managers. Burt Shotton, elderly keeper of the Brooks, says "You'll know tomorrow" about the Dodgers starter at the Yankee atadiU',1. Casey Stengel of the Yanks still Is huddling with his brain trust ers. The Jury may be in by sun down. For the Dodgers It's almost cer tain to be Don Newcombe U7-8,, the Jumbo-sized rookie righthand er, or Preacher Roe (15-6), the crafty southpaw ace. Roe needs several days rest between starts. Newcombe, if he opens, could work three times in a seven-game series. As for the Yanks, It's strictly a guess. About the only sure bet is that Fireman Joe Page will be striding In from the right field bullpen along about the sixth or seventh inning some time during the series. He did it 60 times this season, 20 times for Rey nolds. Reynolds (16-6), Ineffective In a 2 1-3-lnnlng chore against the Boston Red Sox Saturday before Page took over, is ready. Tommy Byrne, ( 15-7), the un predictable southpaw who usual ly either is very good or very bad, is a possibility. Despite his wild ness, Stengel has handed many hev games tu Tommy. Ed Lopat (15-10) might get the nod from Stengel. However, the chunky lefthander was belted out In three innings by the Philadel phia A's Friday. The odds, which now are close to 2 to 1 in favor of the Yanks, appear out of line. It's not such a lopsided thing as that, although the pick here is the Yankees In six games. Injuries Beset Both Teams Both clubs were weary and bat tered. The Yanks' 71 injuries have received top billing because such Important mrn as Joe Id Maggio, Yogi Berra and Tommy Jlenrich had been affecled, but the Dodgers' hospital list has been imposing, too. Even now, thrre is no certainty that Carl Furlllo. the .322 hitting right fielder, will be able to oen because of a groin Injury. Pee wee Reese has the same trouble but not so had. Rest figures to help both teams, the Yanks the most. DIMaggiii. still thin and weak from the after effects of a virus infection, look i ed better yesterday. He is im proving but still is not up to snuif. A fit and ready DIMaggio could sway the series. Henrich, tightly corseted a week ago, because of a hack In Jury, has thrown away his gir dle. Berra'a hand is much Im proved. There also is a chance catcher Charley Sllvera. with a .315 hatting average, may be available.

Gordon headlines the Portland auditorium fight card In a sche duled ten-round encounter with Baby Dutch Culhertson. upanii coming young Los Angeles Ne gro, hilled as "the second Joe Louis." The Babe first leaped into th? stale's boxing limelight with an upset decision over Joe Kahui the battling Woodhurn farm boy who rates so highly in Northwest fistic circles. At the time, many skepllcs thought Gordon's win merely a fluke, pointing to the referee's verdict for Kabul. Gordon meets a formidable op ponent in the L.. A. colored boy, for Culhertson also holds a de cision over Kahut. gained In a return match at Portland after losing In a previous bout. And, according to advance nolices, Culberlson's likeness to Joe I-ew-is Is more than physical. Califor nia sportswriters claim all Cul hertson needs is a little more ring experience and he'll crowd the former heavyweight champ Ion for ring honors. Gordon, claiming to be in bet ter shape than ever, confidently predicted a fourth round K. O. i upon arriving in Portland last wePKena. Two olher Roseburg fighters are slated on tonight's card. Mic key Gcmmill, the smooth Indian lightweight, will defend his hard earned victory string against an ambitious young Portlander, Don Rogers, in the ten-round semi final. Kenny Kaas, also of Rose burg, will appear in one of the preliminary bouts. Rose School In I J aa Osie i LCQQ Ml WpenCrS CITY GRADE LEAGUE Heavies W.

Another responsibility, not quite so obvious, is that each hunter going afield is also re sponsible lor maintaining the habitat in which game animals live. Fire must be in our minds constantly. How easy it is for just one small thoughlless act to destroy thousands of acres of deer lood. One campfire left un tended can destroy a whole wa tershed which, in turn, means not only loss of valuable timber but means loss of trout streams and loss of life-giving top soil as well. One cigaret stub flipped away can mean hundreds of starving deer. Let s be extra cautious this year, whether we hunt in the for ests or on the desert ranges, for lire means loss to all. Our resnonsihilitv. however does not stop here, for each hunt er is carrying in his hands the greatest responsibility of life it self the lives of our fellow men. Better that we never get our buck than to destroy a human life. During the hunting season in Ore gon la-st year six people lost their lives from gunfire. Six people such as you and your loved ones were killed as the result of hu man carelessness. We all know that one fatality, even one acci dent, is Just one too many. We must keCD this in minrl YV mi.c handle our firearms with the greatest of care and never shoot until we are absolutely certain. We ask your aid. We ask vou to observe the eame hui v ask you to he careful with fire and above all we ask you to use your fireamrs with the greatest of care. Let's make this season a safe hunting season!

Movie At Forum Has Truth Theme "Know the truth and the truth shall make your free," is the theme of a motion picture shown at the Roseburg Chamber ol Commerce luncheon at the Ho tel Umpqua Monday noon. The film depicts the story of a young newspaperman who works lor the paper his grandfather founded.

Michigan Rated In Early Poll As Best Grid Team NEW YORK, Oct. 4 I.V) Michigan once more is the na tion's best College football team, in the opinion of the experts who voted today in the Associated Press poll of 1049. The results returned the Wolverines to the same position they held when the 1948 season closed. As a matter of fact, the top ten teams produced by the Initial balloting of the young campaign looks suprisingly like the same ten which came out of the final poll at the end of the '48 cam paign. Only 80 sports writers and broadcasters participated in to day's voting, the others having not yet caught their breath from the dramatic windup of the base hall season. But 34 of them de cided that Michigan's Western Conference champions belonged on top again. Notre Dame, the runner-up in the final 1948 poll, landed In se cond place again this time. Ok lahoma, fifth in 1948, drew the No. 3 position although it collect ed 17 first place voles to 15 for Notre Dame. The Irish had plen ty of support for second and third. On the basis of ten points for a first place vole, nine for se cond, eight for third, and so on. Michigan topped the list with 688 points, Notre Dame had 627 and Oklahoma 505. Surprisingly enough, Michigan barely squeaked past Michigan State. 7-3. in its oponer hut whio ped Stanford, 27-7, while Okla homa has defpated Boston Col W 460, and Texas A. and M Tulane. winner of two South eastern conference games against tough opposition, drew four first place votes and placed fourth.
