Finish Practice For Entry In
Hay ward Relays At Eugene
The Roteburg high ichool trackmen and the Sutharlin thinclads
held their final practice Thursday before tapering off for tha 13th
annual Hayward ralayi to ba hald at Eugana Today and Saturday.
Sixty-two high schools. Including
(our out-of-state schools, returned
entry blanks for the Oregon prep
classic, Ray Hendriclcson, meet di
rector, estimated that 1,100 high
school thinclads will be on hand
for the two-day meet.
Schools entered in the B and C
divisions will compete Friday, with
the A schools running Saturday
morning, starting at 11 a.m. A col
lege meet, held in conjunction with
the relays, will be held on Hay
ward field Saturday afternoon.
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. Hill held
his big drills for tha relays Wednes
day. Tha Bulldogs will be running In

Tair Catch1 Out
Of Grid Rules
KNOVII.I.E. 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

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.

Dickson Of Pittsburgh
Easily Trims Formtr
Mates By 8-4 Score
By JOE REICHLER
AMoel.td FrH Sporuwrltrt
Murry Dickson, pint-sited Pitts
burgh pitcher, persists in nursing a
grudge.
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?
IS the amount of insurance
you carry on tha contents of
your home enough to cover
their value today?
Have you added new things
without perhaps increasing the
amount of your fire insurance?
Ask this Hartford agency to

fully or only partially insured.

Beavers Feature
Triple Play In
Mauling Oakland
By JIM HUBBART
AMOclat. 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. '

today that fishermen should have
a good weekend in Oregon.

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.
