The 14-man squad representing tha Roseburg high school will be competing in tha A division against some of the toughest high school competition in the state. In the final practice session on Finlay field, the Indians practiced baton passing. Tha baton passing in tha Hayward relays is a little different than in the regular high school track meets. In most of the Hayward events, a greater distance is allowed for the passing the baton than in ordinary relays. Also, in tha shuttle relay event, the incom ing man must be tapped on the shoulder before passing the baton. Purdy worked with the Indian run ners Thursday to familiarize them with the new passing techniques. Orin Hills, Sutherlin track coach, ran his Bulldog trackmen through a light workout Thursday.

Tenn., April 21 W Football's "fair catch" rule has been discarded. The football rules committee failed to mention this change in the playing code after its January meeting at Pinehurst, N.C., but the surprise has leaked out to few coaches around the country. Many others still are unaware of the change. Now, the safety man, on a punt, has two options instead of three as formerly. He may elect (1) to catch the punt, or (2) let it hit and roll free. Previously, if tacklers covering the kick were bearing down un comfortable close ha could raise a hand the fair catch signal and protect himself. In this case, the ball was put in play at the spot where he caught it. The safety man's only protection now is that he cannot be hit by the opposition until the ball reaches him. Once the ball touches him, however, he is at the mercy of the opposing ends and tackles rushing downfield to cover the punt VALLEY HARDWARE Zone 1 Is Opin Now FlY RODS RODS. . . 2000, 2500, 30, 40, 50 Union, Shakespeare, Phillipson FLY Martin, Perrine, Shakespeare, South Bend AUTOMATIC FLY REELS 5.50 up Pfleuger, Shakespeare, Ocean City, Weber Single Action Fly Reels 1.50 to 13.50 LANDING NETS 2.00 up Canvas Creels 200 te 37S 675 up Converse Rod & Rati HIP BOOTS 11.75 Creels UMPQUA VALLEY Homo - Owned and Operated Stora Indian Jayvees Trim Glide In Practice Game r Coach Norm West swept the bench after a 10-run first inning by the Indian diamond men, as Roseburg downed Glide 12 8 in a practice game on tha Wildcats' field Thurs day afternoon. Coach Lea Wright pulled out his starting pitcher. Bill Mills, after the devastating first inning run spree of the Indians. Glide then settled down behind the steady pitching of Harvey and Gardner and played tha Indian jayvees on even terms. L. Strumbo of the Indians turned in the best individual performance of the afternoon. The Roseburg third basemen was at bat twice, getting two hits and crossing home filate twice. However, after the irst Inning, there wasn't much of a chance for the varsity men to show what they could do as West started running In his reserves. Glide hsd a great deal of trouble hitting the Indian pitching. The best performance behind the plate for the Wildcats was turned in by Eat on, who was at bat three times and pounded out one hit and scored twice. Glide's big inning' came in the fourth when the Wildcats, aided by several untimely Indian errors, scored five runs. The Wildcats were able to cross the plate again, twice in the sixth frame and once in the final stanza. Hooper, who started for the In dians, was credited with the win. Miles, taken but in the first inning, was charged with the Glide loss. Colltqt Sports IBr Tli Auo?ltd PrM) BASEBALL Idaho 17, Oregon 12. Montana 7-10, Whitworth 4-. . . TENNIS Vanport 7, I.inlield 0.

Consequently the St. Louis Cardi nals may find the road to the 1950 National league championship a rocky one. Dickson did not exactly jump for Joy when he learned a year ago last January that Bob Hannegan, former Cardinal owner, had sold him to the Pirates. Nobody likes to leave a perennial pennant con tender for a second division club. - The little righthander showed his resentment the best way he knew. He simply pitched his heart out every time he faced his former mates. The result? Dickson defeat ed tha Cards five times in eight tries last year more than any oth er pitcher. Murry won only seven against all the other six clubs com bined. The Cards lost the flag to Brook lyn by one game. Did the Dickson sale backfire on the birds? Draw your own conclusions. Now comes a new sesson but the story is the same Dickson made his first start yesterday. The Cards were the opposition. And as can be guessed, Murry clipped the Red birds' wings again, pitching the Pirates to an easy 8-4 triumph. Detroit Edges Cl.veland That was the only game played in the National league. The rest were postponed because of rain and cold weather. Inclement weather also cut the American league's ac tivities to one game. In that one, Detroit again nipped the Indians in Cleveland, this time by J-4. The triumph left the Tigers and the surprising St. Louis Browns as the only undefeated teams in the circuit. Each has won two. All victories have come on the road. Dickson stemmed his former mates with six hits including Stan Musial's second home run of the season. Eddie Miller, subbing for the injured Marty Marion at short stop, drove in two Cardinal runs with a second-inning single. The other Red bird run was unearned. Dickson helped his own cause at the plate. He drove in two runs, one on a single in tha four-run fourth inning. Ted Gray went the route for the Tigers, limiting the Indians to six hits for Detroit's second straight one-run margin victory over Cleve land. Manager Lou Boudreau of the Indians was hit on the left elbow while batting in the ninth inning and left the game. The extent of Outgrown?

Pr.u Sporu Wrltar The Portland Beavers last night effected tha Pacific Coast league's first triple play of the season and used it to wipe out a ninth inning Oakland rally and insure a S-to-1 triumph. And it must have made pitcher Red Lynn, who chucked five-bit ball for tha Ports, feel great. This was just one phase of an evening which also produced a four-hit shutout by Red Embree and two homers with the bases loaded all in different ballparks. Embree set the Los Angeles An gels down, ( to 0, without allow ing a man to reach second. He personally contributed a run to the San Diego cause, too, with a sixth inning single. The victory still left tha Padres in second place, however, a game and a half behind Hollywood, be cause the Stars once again were shellacking tha hapless Seattle Rainiers. It was Seattle's 13th loss in 14 starts. Hollywood won by IS to 4. At Sacramento, Les Fleming's ninth inning roundtripper with the the sacks loaded gave the San Francisco Seals an l-to-S victory over Sacramento. Eddie Williams Meets Strickland Saturday Night Eddie Willaims, newcomer from Mississippi, will tangle with George Strickland in the open ing bout Saturday night at the local wrestling arena. Williams is a highly rated ring ace, very fast and clean. Strickland, the blond behemoth from Denver, is also tops among the clean grapplers and uses a Japanese wrist-lock to good advantage. The bout shapes up as an action-crammed match, filled with clean, scientific grappling. The main event sends Leo Wal lick back against Gordon Hessel in a rematch following their no contest battle last Saturday. The Roseburg commission and Referee Elton Owen could not reach a de cision as to who should be named victor, so the commission requested that the two battlers meet again. This week Buck Davidson will take over the refereeing role and the bout takes on added significance, the winner getting a shot at the Junior heavyweight champion. The title-holder is Bob Cum mings. Al Siasz did hold the crown for a long spell, but dropped the belt to Cummings a couple of weeks ago in Boise, Ida.

Tha three trophies donated by tha Entries Being Listed For Finale Of Boxing Tourney Ernie Nazelrod, promoter for the YMCA sponsored southern Ore gon amateur boxing tournament, announced today that he is re ceiving entries for the final round of the tournament to be held at the armory Friday night, April 28. Nazelrod said that he is placing the boys in their proper weight divisions and it appears that many of the amateur sluggers will have to fight twice in the tourna ment before a winner in several of the divisions can be determined. Under the tournament rules, a fighter has to be defeated twice before eliminated from further competition. This will result in many of the boys who faced each other last Friday slugging it out with esch other again. Nazelrod traveled to Medford Wednesday to watch some of the talent that will perform here on April 28 While in Medford Nazel rod learned that Darrell Johnson, 150 pounder from Medford who lost a TKO to Oral Wescott, 147. of Roseburg in lsst Friday night's semi final card, received a brain concussion from the fight, ending his ring career.
