Notre Dame haa finished no

Teams In Majors
Shuffle Players
By RALPH RODEN
NEW YORK (.11 The flow of
talent from the minors to the major
leagues is over at least until
early December.
Midnight last night was the dead
line for the shifting of minor league
players to the majors or to any
other minor league club until the
second day of the minor league
meetings on Dec. 7. The annua
draft of minor league players by
the majors will take place on Dec.
4-5.
Three teams, the World Cham -
fiion New York Yankees, the Brook
yn Dodgers and Ihe Cleveland In
dians pulled last hour deals with
their minor league affiliations.
The Yanks brought up eight play
ers, Brooklyn four and Cleveland
one.
New York recalled pitchers Hugh
Radcliffe, Dirk Carr and first base
man Fenton Mole. The Yanks also
purchased catchers Clint Court
ney, Lou Rerberet, shortstops Jim
Bndeweser and Jerry Snyder and
outfielder Art Schult.
NEW YORK UF Ezzard
Charles will fight as a 14-car.it
champion for the first time in his
career when he defends his heavy
weight title against Nick Barone
in a 15-round bout at Cincinnati
Nov. 28.
Jake Mintz. Charles' manager, I Viking defenders out of position
made the announcement yesterday. ' ball on a handoff for what looked
next play, Neal Tester hit pay-
ain on an. end-round play.
In the third Bill Ghormley
blocked an Ashland punt to set
up the second Viking touchdown.
Dick Komp took it on the five,
where it was recovered, on a
quarterback sneak and ran it over.
Bob Wilder kicked both the extra
points.
The Ashland team scored on one
of Ihe trickiest plays of the game.
with only four minutes to go in
the game. Jim Jefferies took the
of adjustments in the lineup in an
effort to bolster the line. Milan
Foster, a 161 pound guard was
shifted to the tackle slot and Rcdell
Stonebreaker was moved to the
fuard spot to plug up the leaky
me.
Lions Hard te Step
The Indians are going to be
hard put to stop Ihe team which
has lost, only one game this season,
a 19-4 fall to Eugene two weeks
ago. In the Eugene lame, the Lions
used only 17 men during the whole
game and chalked up 250 yards
on the ground and in the air as
: well as 13 first downs to 9 for the
Axemen. They are still smarting
from that game against the unde
feated Axemen and are going to
be pointing for a win against the
Indians.
Pass Offense, Bast Btt
One thin'? in favor of the Indians I
is the potent pass ollense they
have, which may prove to good ad
vantage against an apparently
weak passing defense on the part
of the Lions.
The Roseburg team will also be
out for blood since they have lost
the last two contests in one of the
roughest schedules in the state.

A Demonstration
Does It!
Charles won the NBA title
June, 1949 when he defeated Jcr-
sey Joe Walcott. He was recog- j
nized in all states but New York, j
and there were some who refused I
to recognize him at all. No. while

But Charles whipped the Brown 1 against a strong Sutherlin eleven
like an end run. This drew the

to Bill Miles who went over with
out a hand being laid on him.
Final score, 14-7.
