Grove Tilt Friday Night Bowling Scores Myrtle Cr. Bldg. Supply ., noy u. xoungs Only one day remains before Jack Newby tests his Roseburg Indian varsity against us unsi ODnonent at Cottage Grove Fri day night. Coach Norm West's iunlor varsity will play the pre Ilminary game against Cottage Grove jayvecs. This final week of practice has been a hectic one lor botn play ers and coach. Newby reduced the traveling squad to a hard pored 12-man outfit that is steep ed in fundamentals of offense and defense. The, Indians are a big question mark this year, with most of the team made ud of new men up from last year's jayvee squad. Only Bill Van Horn and Frank Olson, reserve forwards and Dex ter Garey, starting forward from last year's third place district winners are back for another sea son of ball. The veteran portion of the quin tet has been cut to three men because Dale Blanck, reserve guard, Is still recuperating from an accident .with a buzz-saw. Of the nine men balancing out the squad, several appear to be In line for much comment from the fans if pre season predictions pan out., Mickey Coen, 16-year-old guard and Junior, plays his first year on the varsity alter coming up from the iawces. where he was a ca- gable starting guard. Ronnie trickling, 17-year-old senior and guard, Is another man that will bear watching. He was credited with many counters that helped put the 1948 jayvecs right on top at the end of the season. Jerry Sconce, 16-year-old Jay vee starter and now a varsity guard, is one of the biggest mo rale builders on tne team, ac cording to Informants close to the Senior high basketball court. He is also a capable shooter a nec essary ingredient to a winning ball club. Don Campbell and Tom John son will furnish a little height to team lacKing tne same. Jonn- son is listed as the tallest man on the squad, a cool 6'1 1-2" not Impressive as basketball building up sufficiently for the Initial series will be a nip and tuck proposition but the contrac tor has assured that the coliseum will be ready.

Kee Brlecs. who saw some ac- Hon on last year's varsity team before dropping back to the Jay vees to knock off a few rough edges, is back again. The 16-year-old Junior will play on the lorward wall as will campDeu, a lean junior with a jayvee back, ground. Buddy Mathews, 17, senior and a guard, Is one of the shortest men on the varsity at 5'9' . He was a Jayvee starter last year and made up in speed wnat ne lacked In height. Gordon Conlay and Strickling are the other "shortys" on the squad at 5-9. . Roy Van Horn, brother of Bill Is the remaining newcomer to the Indian varsity. A junior and 16, young Van Horn will play forward. The Friday night action at Cot tage Grove will be the first of a two-game series with the Lane county club.

THIS IS A SPECIAL PURCHASE WHICH ALLOWS US TO SELL THESE SPORT COATS AT JUST 12.50. COMPLETE SIZE RANGE WHILE THEY LAST Colors Tan Grey Wi ne Green Blu Sanders To Stay As UCLA Coach LOS ANGELES. Decs 8-UB- UCLA has won a cross-country tug-of-war with the University of Florida for the football coaching talents of Henry (Red) Sanders. University of California at Los Angeles officials announced last night that the humorous, likeable coach has decided to remain at the Bruin Institution and implied that he has received a new contract. The announcement, following a meeting of the school's, board ot control, ended a week of specu lation stemming from reports that Sanders had received a juicy offer to move to Florida. The UCLA statement auoted no figures. But persons close to the situation said the pact would run for 10 years and the stipend would be $15,000 per year,' plus a substantial expense account, oanciers tnmsell was not avail able for comment. But Ell Fink of Flqrlda's state board of control was. He said at Jacksonville tthat Sanders' deci sion was no surprise. "It is true we had made San ders an offer," said Fink. "But his ..attitude long agp had led. us to believe that, he was merely using our offer to better his position- at UCLA. "He told us the other day that he had been promised a 10-year contract at $15,000 a year plus a healthy expense account. This is better than the deal we had pro posed and which he accepted, ap parently in good faith." Sanders said earlier this week that he had discussed the matter with a member of the Florida board of control but had received no official offer. Unofficial reports from th south said Florida was willing to pay him $15,000 yearly and $5, 000 for expenses. , At UCLA, Sanders took a squad wnicrt naa lost seven ana won three games and converted it into the second highest-scoring team in Bruin histrry. It piled up 227 points. UCLA was a con tender for the Pacific Coast con ference, title until the last game and defeated six opponents, while losing to three. WSC Cautious In Coach Choice PULLMAN, Wash. UP) Washington State college is re ceiving application from football coaches all over the county but tha seclectlon of a new coach won't be made hastily. Bob Brumblay, acting director of Intercollegiate athletics, said the school is receiving, in addi tion to applications, letters recom mending men for the job. Phil Sarboe. head football coach since 1945, resigned last week. "The selection of a head coach fon-Washington State will not be a hasty matter," Brumblay said. "We intend to investigate thor oughly every candidate consid ered. The alumni and friends of the college, and the students, can be assured that we will leave no stone unturned in finding, a man for the football skipper s job: Brumblay added that "we do not intend to de-emphasize foot ball or any Intercollegiate ath letics at Washington State." . The consideration of Sarboe s resignation and possible discus sion of a new coach will be taken up at a meeting of the athletlr council tentatively set for Dec. 16. Stars Get New Catcher BALTIMORE, Dec. 8 UP) Catcher , Cliff Dapper, player manager of the Atlanta Crackers of the Southern association la.it season, was sold today to Holly wood of the Pacific Coast league. Dapper was succeeded Monday as Atlanta manager by Dixie Walker, veteran major league outfielder. Dapper hit .280 In 115 games for Atlanta in 1949. McQuire Wins 2 Top Awards OREGON STATE COLLEGE, Corvallis, Dec. 8 Stan McGuire, standout junior right end, walk ed off with two of the top honors awarded at the first annual Ore gon State football banquet at the Multnomah hotel's grand ball room in Portland Monday night. More than 700 persons attended the huge affair sponsored by the Beaver alumni association to ho nor the Orange in general and 15 graduating seniors in particu lar. . The curly-haired McGuire, who made most all-coast sauads this year and won the "lineman of the week" award for his brilliant play in the Michigan State game, was named team captain for the 1950 season. He also was present ed with the Otto Sitton award as the outstanding OSC lineman of the year as selected by the coaches of the Beavers' opponents. Right Halfback Dick Grav. McGuire's buddy and teammate since their high school days at Kooseveit oi Portland, received the most valuable player award as voted by the squad members. Coach Kip Taylor described the last of the three backfleld play ing Gray brothers as the most underrated back in the confer ence. A brand new award, the Bob Chrisman trophy for the best downfield blocker for the season, went to John Thbmas, the big sophomore end from Newark, N. J. In addition to receiving an in dividual Joving cUp, Thomas will have his name engraved on a huge silver bowl trophy topped by the figure of a football player. Another new tradition was in augurated when the 15 graduat ing seniors were presented with gold "O" rings by the Portland alumni group.- Receiving rings were Ken Carpenter, Dick Gray, Dick Twenge, Bud Cahill, Andy Knudsen, Jim Inglesbv, Capt. Tom DeSylvia, Bud G'ihbs, Don Mast, Rudy Ruppe, Ed Carmich ael, Duane Moore, Craig McKick ael, Duane Moore, Craig McMick-cour. Washington And Lee, Virginia Game Films Show Best Freak "'--.. . , , . ' By MILO FARNETI ' NEW . YORK UP) An enthusiastic Washington & Lee sub who made an illegal tackle that wasn't detected for two days furnished the football oddity of the 1949 college football season.

'But Smith's good . work went for nothing. Bessell fumbled over the goal line and a Virginian re covered for a score. Virginia won, 27-7. SHERIFF'S SALE Surplus Army Goods Including Diesel Power Plants Stock of Gilkey's Trading Post will be auctioned at 1 9 o'clock Friday morning, December 9, 1949. This sale Is by virtue of a writ of execution and is subject to the further order of the court, which may order the with drawal of this offer of sale. The sub's great play came to light when movies of ,the game were shown the next Monday. Other Oddltiesi East Tennessee State was beating Milligan college In their annual rivalry-packed game at Johnson City when a spectator made his move from the loser's section. i He told cops who grabbed him that all he wanted was to cross over to the state rooting section. He couldn't stand riding the loser. Then the customary little dog was the only creature to cross the Stanford goal line in the In dians' 40-0 trouncing of Wash ington. A rabbit proved the best broken field runner in the Belolt-Law-rence game. After Willamette university had run through four plays with only nine men In 'action against Idaho, the referee asked the coach if he would care to use the legal limit. Levi Jackson of Yale sprinted to a touchdown against a 10-man Columbia team and gave credit for a neat block to one of his line men. It turned out he raced over a hole vacated by an absent- minded Columbia tackle siMinc on the bench. Scout Chuck Purvis, Illinois backfleld coach, was watchine Michigan taking the Illinl. from a perch - high atop Memorial stadium at Champaign. He fell ana oroKe an arm. Scientific Age Modern technology note Coach Bill Hartman of Georgia scouted rival Georgia Tech almost every game. Instead of the customer' pad and pencil, he dictated his ob servations into a recording machine. Penalties against one team or the other' nullified four Army tries for the extra point against Fordham. No one fouled on the fifth attempt and Jack Mackmull booted it over. This Is not an advertisement for the state of Oregon. Dark ness hampered some games but fog closed in on a Willamette Paciflo contest. 1 An observer with a microphone trailing the play told them how the game was going. YES AND NO Idaho Vandals Darkhorse Club Bv DICK EIMERS MOSCOW, Ida., Dec. 8 UP) Finley in '50? . Maybe, yes. Maybe, no. That's about the best you can get from most experts who saw Coach Chuck Finley's University or Idaho basketball team start painfully slow last year and wind up as one of the toughest teams in the Northern division. "Cheerful Chuck," not known hereabouts for his willingness to venture out on a limb, gives you a slow smile and a bit of double- talk. Here's what he thinks his Vandals will do: "I do not look for Idaho'to fin ish any better this year than last, but if we do finish better ; than that I shall not be too much sur prised." Idaho, finished in a third place tie with Oregon last year. About tne eventual winner or the northern division, he says: 'If I were to make a choice as to how the teams will finish which is a foolish move I should select-Oregon State to repeat." The vanaais, not an excep tionally tall club, have shown spots of fine basketball in three pre-conference games. In win- nine two and losing one tney have used a ball control style of play and have worked both back boards hard. i. Chuck has tagged his team as "partially inexperienced1' even though nine lettermen are back. Names on the roster like Bob Joe Louis Still The Best, Says Exhibition Loser CHICAGO, Dec. 8 UP) Joe Louis will continue boxing,, but "strictly on an exhibition basis," ho said last night after knocking out Pat Valentino, of San Fran cisco, in the eighth round at Chi ciu otsdium. The retired heavyweight cham pion, reclining in his dressing room with an Ice bag over his slighly - bruised left eye, held court for newsmen after the finish of his scheduled 10-round exhibition with Valentino. "I'm fighting an exhibition with Lee Oma ,ln Detroit next Wednesday night and another with Al Hflosman in Oakland, Calif., on Dec. 19 after the first of the year I'm planning an ex hibition tour in South America. I've never boxed t:,ere." Valentino, outweighed 39 pounds, was no match for the Brown Bomber. Even at the age of 35 'Louis convinced a small crowd of 5,726 that he is the tops among the current crop oi bat tlers. The gate amounted to $28,933 including taxes.

Pritchett, Joe Grove, Nick Stall worth, Dick Gelsler and George1 Rey tend to make other coaches treat the classification lightly. All played extensively last year. Those other coaches have two wishes about the 6-foot 3-inch Pritchett. They wish he was with them or they wish he was in some other league. The agile for ward led the Vandal team in scoring last year and drew praise from all opponents. The Idaho club will be stronger In the reserve department this year. Working behind Stallworth, tne b-toot 7-lncn starting center, will be Bob Wheeler. Only an inch shorter than Stallworth, Wheeler has shown flashes of real skill in early games.
