Maccra And Foti Face Tag Experts Two Canadian boys, Luigi Ma cera and Johnny Foti, have com bined to form a new wresfline team in Northwest grappling cir cles, ana tney get a chance to prove their worth Saturday night at the Armory. The chance will be their non title go against the confident North west tag team champions. Killer tt-amerott and Dirty Doug Dono van, in main event action. A best of three falls or one hour semifinal preliminary is also on tap for fans with Gory Guerrero meeting George Drake of Catalina in this one. Referee will be John Arjon. Kameroff and Donovan, two of the meanest characters to ever an- pear in the Northwest, refused to put up the title when challenged oy tne Canadian pair. They claim ed that they never heard of these "punks" as a team and asked for some suffer opposition. This could become the case, for in audition to teaming for the NW title, Kameroff has added the Northwest heavyweight toga to his collection after his win over Luther Lindsey last week at the Armory. Lindsey, badly treated by Kam eroff last week, says that he will probably have a knee operation be fore resuming a wrestling career. The night's semifinal brings back George Drake to the arena after the latter's invasion of Texas and California. He is said to have pick ed up valuable experience and he says that he is now ready for the Dig lime. Guerrero stayed on even terms with Macera last week and has proved to be a hit with Rose burg fans. Nordic Plywood Still Undefeated INDUSTRIAL LEAGUE W L Pet.

While Sox By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS H the Ohieaeo White Sox are here to stay, Manager Marty Mar ion can bow low to his relief pitch ing. The Pale Hose seldom have had it so good. Twelve victories in the last 16 games have got the Go-Go Sox going, yet Marty's starters have managed only four complete games in the surge. It's been the bullpen boys who have kept Chicago within reach for late rallies and who have made early leads stand up. Sox Take Lead It was that way again last night when the Sox thumped Boston 10-7 and took the American League lead by two percentage points over the New York Yankees. The Yanks were made fully aware of their plight by losing to Kansas City 3-1 after the A's had lost 10 Straight. The Sox belted Boston for five runs in the first and five in the third, till, Marion had to go to the relief staff, calling in Mike For niels and finally Morrie Martin to pull it off. Martin recieved credit Pee Wee Reese Honored Friday BROOKLYN m Pee Wee Reese, Brooklyn Dodgers shortstop the past 15 years, probably still was in a daze today. Reese was given a "night" in Ebbets Field last night and what a night it turned out to be. A" crowd of 33,003, largest of the season, turned out to honor the Brooklyn captain, who helped the celebration along by contributing two doubles to the Brooks' 8-4 vic tory over Milwaukee. Reese who celebrates his 36th birthday today was loaded down with a staggering array of gifts from fans. Brooklyn merchants and a moving company in the borough said it would move ev erything free to Reese's home in Louisville, Ky. He had his pick of seven dif ferent make cars. His 11-year-old daughter, Barbara, selected a key out of a bowl. Each of the cars was driven up to her until the key fit into one. That was the new Reese car. Dozens of telegrams were read over the loudspeaker, including one from Vice President Nixon. Dodger President Walter O'Mal ley said later he had received a cablegram from President Eisen hower wishing Reese well. drivers Louis Donelan and Del Graves continued to steal the thun der in the race for top money for the season. Donelan captured the night's top prize with a first place finish in the A main event. He also took first in the third heat race. Graves, in a tremendous mid season surge of scoring, won the A trophy dash and the fourth heat race, and set a new track lap record of 18.01 in the process. Graves currently holds down third spot among the hardtop scorers, while Donelan is first. Other first placers Friday night were Don Hein in the first heat race and Jack Beavers in the sec ond heat.

But the com mission has good reason to believe someone took out a lot of fish be fore the salvage crew arrived. William E. Pitnev. field biolo gist in charge of Umpqua River studies, reports that salvage crews took 62 adult spring chinooks and eight steelhead from the pool un der the falls. Removal was made necessary because of preparations for a large blast soon to be set off to remove rock during construc tion of a fishway over the falls. The game commission is dynamit ing "steps ' into the rock o the river bed to make it easier for fish to reach the upper river. It is expected the fishway will greatly increase the river's spawning ca pacity. Many fish at present are unable to negotiate the' falls, par ticularly after the water level drops in late spring. In salvaging fish from the pool, water was diverted by sandbags into a new channel. A dam also was built at the lower end of the pool. Water then was pumped out and big fish removed, together with a number of trout. The fish taken by the salvage crew were removed to a point a safe distance downstream from the site of the blast. Evidence was found. Pitney re ports, that the pool had been dy namited by poachers earlier in the season. In addition to signs of explosions, the crew found a bomb containing three sticks of unex ploded dynamite.
