Flagman Reece Found Place
On Sidelines After Crash
Dick Reece, 27, of Route 1 Box
1176, is the competent flagman at
the Roseburg Speedway and is a
familiar figure on the flag rtand
. at, the center of the grandstand.
" Reece and his wife, Francine,
were married March IS, 1950, in
Roseburg. They nave two daugn
ters, Debra, S and Diana 3.
Having been a driver for three
years himself, Reece is familiar
Twitb all the rules and regulations
-for cars on the track and is well
qualified to handle the job.
He is one of a group of five or
six men who first got interested
men together in order, to start the
Pacific Racing Assn. in Roseburg
and is one of the charter members
of the organization.
The flagman was the first elected
.secretary after the organization
was active. He first became inter
ested in driving in '51 when a few
races were held at the fairgrounds.
""" He drove nearly three years, un
til near the end of the last year's
season, when he rolled his sar six
or seven times and was sent to
the hospital for the night with'
many bruises. Mrs. Reece then
took a "no driving" stand and
Reece decided he'd better settle for
a different type of job with the
association, so he took the position
of flagman when asked to do so.
While he was driving, he won
several heats and a few B mains.
He didn't win an A main, but was
able to place in many. He holds two
A trophies from this track and one
trophy from the Eugene track.
In 1953, he held the track record
here until the last day of the sea
son. He held it with a time of
18.01 seconds.
, He drove car 27, a '37 Chevrolet
with a 270 hp motor.
He is employed by the Umpqua
pjywooa uo. as pona sawyer.

ding, who were both members of
the Junior Legion team, missed
the initial contest and the added
strength in the backfield was quite
noticeable.
With the injury to Fray, Bill
Oerding probably will move into
the vacant spot and will be run
ning with teammates Eddie La
Roque at quarter, Lee Stone at
the other, halfback spot and Brown,
the fast-stepping transfer from
Kelso, in the tailback slot. Gary
Welch, who made a 15-yard carry
against the Grizzlies, will no doubt
see plenty of action. also.
The balance of the lineup will
probably be the same as what

find Fred Skeels and fluss Pinard

hold any real hope for the Na
tional League pennant. And after
losing 2-1 to Pittsburgh in 10 in
nings yesterday, even winning all
their seven remaining games
won't guarantee a thing for the
Braves who have been able to win
as many as three in a row only
once in the last two weeks.
Even by winning all seven, Mil
waukee can t gain as much as a
tie for the pennant unless Brook
lyn's world champion Dodgers
lose two of their remaining nine.
The Brooks, beginning to hear the
jingle of another world series pay-
off, have won nine of their last
11 and took a full-game lead while
idle yesterday.
The Braves had to battle from
behind yesterday against Bob
Friend, who gave just four hits
but almost missed his 16th victory
when two errors on one tlav bv
first baseman Dale Long gave
Milwaukee the tying run in the
ninth. Then Roberto Clemente
tagged reliefer Ray Crone for a
two-out single Billy Bruton just
couldn't get to in center field and
Bill Mazeroski scrambled home
with the winner.
The only hits off Friend, win
ning his first since Aug. 26 and
defeating the Braves a third time
this season, were, fifth and 10th
inning singles bv Johnny Logan,
Hank Aaron's single and Bobby
lnomson s double, both in the sev
enth. Logan's first single came
with two out in the fifth after
Friend had retired the first 14 men
in order.
Buhl was in on this one, too,
giving three hits one Jack Shep
ard's seventh home run in the
seventh inning before being lift
ed for a pinch-hitter in the 9th.
Going into a four-game series
at Pittsburgh tonight, the Dodgers
now are 3-1 favorites to win the
pennant. It's 8-1 the race won't
end in a tie.

Marshfield, defending state
champion, will try to make it 26
games without a defeat when it
meets Grants Pass in the feature
game of Oregon high school foot
ball action Friday night.
Marshfield, favored to retain its
Class A-l district 5 title, was a
lopsided winner in its first two
games. But Grants Pass, a strong
district 6 contender and always a
power, is expected to give a good
account of itself on the Coos Bay
field.
There are several district games
counting toward state champion
ship playoffs.
Four of these are in district 8.
Albany, an easy victor in its first
two games, will be tested by
Bend. Corvallis, defending district
champion, will meet Lebanon,
and South Salem plays Sweet
Home. North Salem is at Prine
ville. In district 5 a strong Eugene
team will clash with Cottage
Grove and North Bend will meet
Springfield.
District 4 action sends St. Hel

Coach Frank Doyel and his War

opened loop play last Friday with
a narrow 9-7 victory over Junction
City there. Creswell comes to town
with a 0-2 record which included
33-20 loss at the hands of Willan
ette High of Eugene in its league
opener last week.
Alyrtle Creek, still suffering from
injuries collected last Friday at
Glendale, will be the underdogs in
the battle at Myrtle Point. Two of
the Vikings backfield aces will
probably miss the game complete
ly due to battle scars inflicted
against the Pirates.
ine uoDcais started the year
with 14 veterans on hand and lost
but little from a year ago when it
handed Myrtle Creek a 19-6 de
feat. The coastal eleven has a 2-0

The NCAA football "game of

big league baseball "game of the

game will be played at Boston.
The Sunday pro football game win
feature the Detroit Lions vs. the
Washington Redskins starting at
10 a.m. It too will be carried over
KOIN-TV. . . , . . .
Some find that '.'beginners luck
can prove mighty costly. Such was
the case of Bob Colley, Roseburg
school teacher and local sports en
thusiast. A couple of weeks back,
Bob took his initial salmon ven
ture and had the misfortune of land
ing a nice silverside that weighed
around 14 pounds. Since then, it
has cost him around $75. This in
cludes fishing gear only. . . I
wonder if he knows hunting season
is just around the corner?. . . .
LAST WEEK I collected 4-6 win
ners in my initial pigskin predic
tios for the year. I missed on the
Myrtle Creek-Glendale tussle and
Viking coach Earl Miller has been
grinning from ear-to-ear ever since.
My shoulders are broad, here
ihey are: Glide over Sutherlin by
movement for the season to 7,791.
During the same period silver
salmon, a fall migrating species,
made their appearance, with six
adults counted.
The summer steelhead run con
tinued below normal, but the count
on salmon trout was the best ever
tallied by mid-September.
Comparative figures were report
ed as follows:
WESTERN
UNION
oi ipast one touchdown. This game
has caused a great deal of contro
versy in the local News-Review
newsroom and I still pick the Wild
cats. Skip Stillwell will be-off and
running, but 1 think Dick Smith
and Wayne Kcnnaday will be there
to greet him.
The Oakland-Riddle game looms
a tnss-uD. Both teams have one
game under its belt. 1 pick the
Oakcrs by two TDs, after all, an
A-2 school should beat a class B
aggregation. Yoncalla should
have no trouble setting Canyonviile
down by two TDs and chalk, up Us
second straight Douglas B League
victory along ine way.
Mvrtle Creek over Myrtle Point.
I can always retreat and say that
I got mixed up navuig iuu many
Myrtles around. The Vikings are
the underdogs but, I look for an
upset. The Bobcats are loaded
with veteran players and lost very
little from the same team which
racked Myrtle Creek, 19-6, last
year.
ONLY A DOPE (that's me)
would pick Glendale over Douglas
when he knows that both of the
Pirates hard-running backs are out
with injuries. Douglas looked ter
rible last week against Glide and
no doubt coaches Bob Williams and
Puss Hawk have worked the lads
mighty hard whipping them into
top shape. It will be a close one.
The Roseburg-Medford battle
looks like a case of too much
against too little. I took a wee
wager on this fracas. I got the In
dian tribe along with 18 ppints and
I think I got a good bet. Medford
has one of its biggest teams in
years and will average close to
180 per man. George's speed-merchants
could stage an upset.
Oregon should beat Colorado by
two Tds, even at Boulder. The Ore
gon State-Missouri game looks
pretty even. If Rossburger Nub
Bcamer sees much action, I'll
stand by the Beavers.
Southern Oregon College of Ed
ucation will initiate the grid sea
son Saturday night at Medford
when it hosts the Humboldt State
aggregation. Kickoff time is set
for 8 p.m. , .
VERN MARSHALL, who played
baseball with the Drain Black Sox
of the Southern Oregon League, is
tabbed for a Saturday starting
berlh in the Linfield College back
field. The Wildcats are managed
by Drain baseball manager Roy
Helscr. . .
On the subject of baseball: Ray
Stratton. athletic director at Drain
High School, who also held down
the hot corner for Drain's semi
pro baseball team, told us that at
the beginning of the past season.
17 left-handed hurlers were on the
five rosters of the league. This in
cluded five of the Black Sox staff. .
Vic Backland. football star while
attending Bandon High School a
couple years back, has again been
named on the Willamette Univers
ity starting team for Saturday's
opener. The 210-pound junior is
slated for left end duty. . . Back
land was picked on last year's all
conference first team. . .
Today marks tho first anniver
sary of Red Hat Day. We sin
cerely hope that all Sports-minded
citizens and hunters have signed
the pledge and live up to it. . .
