Roseburg Beats Reedsport Visitors Prove No Match For Home Towners Coach 'Ctei' Shtrwood Swttps Bench To Pilt Up Imprctslvt Victory A rejunevated team from end to end! That wan the verdict render ed by several hundred Roseburg football tans last nirjht, alter watching an alert Indian squad overpower Reedsport In all four quarters to ring up a 38-0 win. Man for man, the invading Braves were outplayed In every position, as the Roseburg team baffled their opponents with their usual variety of Informa tion plays, plus a liberal mixture of single wing formations, new to this year's Row-burg squad Aggressive play by a Rosbui g line supposedly weakened by in juries proved to be the one most outstanding factor in the ball f ame. Time and again Roseburg Inemen charged through the Reedsport forward wall to nail runners and would-be passers for big losses. And Just a often, Roseburg's big Orange-clad front line opened huge holes for a fast charging Indian back field. Scoras on Long Run Topping a long list of lengthy Roseburg runs was the 86-yard, second half kick-off return by Bill Van Horn, Indian halfback who scored four of Roseburg's six touchdowns. Van Horn fum bled the kick on his own 20 yard line, picked It up again on the lb and then proceoed to weave his way down the south sidelines, eluding the entire Reedsport de fense by virtue of fine downfield blocking. Again In that third quarter Roseburg scored on a spectacu lar kick return. Although Van Horn and Frank Wrbir were the two ball carriers on the 70-yard run-lateral-run play, that parti cular touchdown might not have been scored had it not been for the greatest bit of team blocking the Roseburg squad has turned in all season. Receiving the punt on his own 30 vard line, Weber ran It bark to the Reedsport 32. then lateralled to Van Horn who raced the rest of the way to score standing up. Blocking was so per fect that not a single Reedsport player was left standing when Van Horn crossed the goal line. It took Roseburg Just six plays to score their Initial touchdown, sparked by runs of 20 and 62 yards by the shifty Van Horn. Aided bv a first-down plunge by Bob Scott, right half, Van Horn plunged over from the nine yard line, scoring on a single wing play. Weber's eonverslon attempt was wide. Six minutes later. Weber added another seven points to Rose burg's total when he broke over right tackle, cut to the left, and outran the Reedsport secondary on a 39-yard scoring hurst. His second placement was good. Roseburg cut short a Reedsport scoring threat In the second quarter, when the Braves march ed to the Roseburg 27-vard line. SOUTH END FUEL CO.

Yoncalla outlasted Oakland to take a thrilling 1812 win over their southern rivals and Elkton ran by Glide, 3318. From there, a series of ground plays, sparked by Weher and Scott, and a pass from Quarter back Ron Stnckling to Dale Hla nck, right end, set up the third scoring play, a pitchout . to Van Horn and a 25-yard run around left end. The pass from center went over the head of the kicker and the score remained at half time, Roseburg 19, Reedsport 0. Halted by Blackout Following a 30-mlnute blackout due to a power shortage. Van Horn brought fans to their feet with his spectacular return of the second half kick-off. Weber's kick made It 26 for Roseburg. The score went to 32 at the end of the third quarter, after Weber and Van Horn teamed on the lateral play. Weber'a try for extra point was blocked. Coach Cece Sherwood cleared the bench in the final quarter of the game, with Roseburg re. serves playing the entile period. Successive first downs by Jerry sconce and Llnvrl Mumho push ed the ball to the Reedsport 22. Mickey Coen overcame a five yard offside penalty by pitching (o Gregory Wadsworth for seven. Two plays later, Sconce broke over the left side of the line for the final score. Only twice during the evening did Reedsport come close to the Indian goal line. Early In the second quarter, a series of Rose burg penalties, rushing plays and a pass put the Braves on their hosts' 27 yard line, but an Intercepted pass ended that threat. Again In the third quarter, Reedsport showed signs of a scoring attempt, when their full back, Larry Rose, cut over his own right tackle and raced 40 yards to the Roseburg 22 before oetng hauled down.

Non-Resident's Sports License Egg nCreaSed WALLA WALLA, Wash., Oct 8. Oregonians will pay $50 for a Washington non-resident hunting and fishing license from now on, the Washington State Game commission decided in a meeting here Friday. The fee has been $25. .. , . ... . ., inc ai-ui,ii nai innru, iuiuiiis to a resolution passed by the com mission, to "adjust our non-resident big game hunting and fish ing licenses of this state to be in keeping with nonresident big game hunting and fishing licenses of Oregon." By action of the last legisla ture, Oregon now charges $25 for a non- resident hunting license, $10 for a non. resident fishing li cense, and $15 for a non-resident deer tag. Washington offers only two non resident licenses, one for fish ing and the other for both hunt ing and fishing.

Another resolution asked for a Joint meeting with Oregon and Idaho commissions to discuss "mutual problems." "YOU BE THE JUDGE" Leaving State , . .

Instead of changing uniforms, name and location, the New York Bulldogs alias Boston Yanks probably could have used their energies better In trying to land a scoring punch. In three National Football lea gue contests, the tooth-less Bull dogs have scored a mere 14 points, and. they've been blanked twice. Their last fruitless venture came last night when they fell before the Green Bay Packers, 190, at the Polo grounds.

Baylor and Arkansas are two rough-touch teams that play for keeps with the former rated one touchdown the better. Kentucky, which has surprised one and all, has been Installed as the choice over Georgia. Some other top games of the day include U. C. L. A.-Stanford.

Yogi Berra Said Too Fast For Players To Steal BROOKLYN, Oct. 8 P Be careful what you say about Hogi Berra's catching In the world se ries. Before this scorefirst-and-win classic even began there was much talk about how the Dodgers would be running the bases like ants at a picnic. Kvcn Ty Cobb said the Yankees might lose any chance they had of winning the series because of the Dodgers' speed on the bases coupled with Berra's errant throwing in the past. Cobb stole 96 bases In 1915. Despite a painful left thumb and two rubber sponges in his mitt the Dodgers have stolen only one base In the two games Berra caught. Berra handled Allie Rev-nnlds'two-hit shutout and nine strikeouts on Wednesday and yes terday he wiped out a Dodger threat in the very first inning when he doubled Pee Wee Reese at second base when Reese tried to move up a base on Eddie Mik sis' foul fly that Yogi caught near the screen. "He can catch me anytime," said relief pitching Ace Joe Page. "Berra is a smart catcher. He's a lot smarter than a lot of people give him credit for being. He's thinking all the time. He's the boss when I'm pitching. He calls for every pitch and I very sel dom shake him off." Max Baer On Comebac Trail For Heavy Title SACRAMENTO. Calif.. Oct. 8 (!')

V & 4 Danny Gardella, Baseball Exile, Welcomed Back NEW YORK, Oct. 8 IIP) Organized baseball welcomed back the last ol its exiles, Danny Cardella, today and heaved a tremendous sigh ol relief over removal of its only remaining legal nightmare. With dramatic suddeness, Car della announced last night that he was withdrawing his $300,000 damage suit and would try a baseball comeback with the St. Louis Cardinals. This Involved a bit of back room maneuvering because when the little outfielder jumpded to the Mexican league in 1946 he was the property of the New York Giants, without a contract. The matter was worked out to everybody's satisfaction, baseball officials disclosed, and all are happy. "Danny haj asked for and re ceived his unconditional release bv the Giants and will sign a 1950 contract with the St. Louis Cardinals," the statement lssurd by Gardella's attorneys .said in part. It left a lot of questions un answered, the chief of which was what influenced Danny to change his mind in such a hurry. A few weeks ago the 29-year-old" New Yorker was insisting that nothing could deter him in his fight to show up baseball's contract abuses and have them rectified by law. Big Johnny Mize Is Series Hero BROOKLYN, Oct. g(LBig Johnnv Mire is the likely, hero of the 1949 World Series. The guy many thought was through when the New York Gi ants sold him to the New York Yankees late in August has dem onstrated anew he it ever dan gerous. With Leo Durocher, who as Gi ant manager cast him aside, looking on from the stands Big John strode to the plate as a pinchhitter In yesterday's game against Brooklyn. The bases were loaded, two out, and the score tied at 1-1. A min ute later John had plastpred the ball against the right field screen for a long single that scored two runs. It was a smash from which the Brooks may never recover. The hit also kept Mize's series batting average at 1.000. He singled against- Southpaw Preacher Roe in another pinchhitting role on Thursday. "I never hit 1.000 hfore;" yell ed Big John in the dressing room later. "This World Series stuff is all right. I only grit six hits all season fop the Yanks and now I've had two in the series." Although noted as a home-run clouter this Is the first World Series for Mize after 11 years in the majors. He's as thrilled as a youngster.
