dale. Saturday: Roseburg over
Corvallis.
THE 43RD ROSE BOWL (Press,
Radio and TV) information book
let reached our desk Thursday. It
gives complete data on both teams,
players, coaches along with past
Rose Bowl history.
Douglas County will be well rep
resented, having two outstanding
players on the Beaver roster in
the persons of Tony Arana, whose
folks reside at nearby Sutherlin,
and local product Nub Beamer.
Arana is a good passer and run
ner, lie is also one of the better
punters of the team and has an
average of 36 8 for eight kicks.
Beamer is rated as an extremely
hard runner, and lacks only expe
rience. He carried the ball 35
times for 164 net yards (4.7 aver
age). He is hard to bring down
and capable of going all the way.
Beamer has been used as lineback
er during a good portion of the
past season.
Coach Tommy Prothro says he
could be one of the best fullbacks
in the PCC next year.
Waterfowl
Hunting Poor
PORTLAND in Waterfowl
hunting prospects for the coming
weekend are the poorest in some
time, the weekly summary issued
by the state Game Commission in
dicates.
In none of the five shooting
areas summarized is the outlook
better than fair. This is the situa
tion: Northwest
Ducks are still plentiful in the
north Willamette Valley, but flood
watera have dispersed birds wide
ly. Duck hunting in the south
Willamette Valley has again
slowed up.
Southwest
Waterfowl shooting remains fair
in the desert pothole country
around Camp White in the Rogue
Valley.
Central
Most of the birds in the Klam
ath area have migrated south.
Upper and Lower Klamath Lakes
are poor, but some mallards and
honkers are using Swan Lake and
Yonna valleys.
Northeast
There are small bands of mal
lards in Baker Valley. Pair hunt
ing will be found near Keating
and Richland, and along Burnt
River near Hereford. Ducks are
becoming more numerous in
I nion County.
Southeast
Most of the birds are gone from
Summer Lake and Warner Val
ley, but duck hunting should he
fair along the Snake River in Mal
heur County.

Roseburg
Shoot For
! Basketball rivalry between
! Grants Pass and Roseburg will
I blaze anew tonight wben the Cave
men of Coach Kay Davis come to
town for a night encounter against
the BUI Harper coached Indians.
! Game time is S p m.
Saturday night, the Indians trav
lel to Corvallis for a rematch with
the Spartans. Roseburg won the
first meeting between the two
schools. 54-31.
Experience Limited
i Grants Pass brings a hoop crew
: boasting four returning lettermen,
j although only one, Larry llender
1 son is a seasoned veteran. Several
I have plenty of jayvee experience,
however.
! Grants Pass hosted both Marsh-
field and North Bend last week
end and dropped both encounters,
losing to the Pirates, 50-42, and to
the Bulldogs, 55-53.
Starting nods will probably go to
Henderson who stands 6-5Mi at cen
ter; Jim Smith, 6-1 junior guard;
Mike Spar ho. 6-0 junior: and Jer
ry Putnam, 6-3 sophomore in the
forward slots. Junior Chuck Rem
bert will probably get the other
guard assignment. He stands 5-11.
Sparlin and Rambert played jay
vee ball last year, and Putnam,
being a sophomore, has had only
freshman-squad experience. First
line reserves include 6-3Va Larry
Walker, 6-3 Bruce Marks, 6-2 Bob
Fowler, 6-1 Bob Linquist 5-11 Gary
Walker and 5-7 Chuck Lasher.
Roseburg will be after its fifth
consecutive win, but Coach Harper
is undecided as to whom will get
the starting nods. A lot will depend
on whether 6-3 transfer center
John Caudill is ready for action.
The first string pivotman injured
his hip last week and has missed
the past two encounters. i
His replacement on the other
hand. Tom "'.arrong. has looked
terrific and could get the starting
nod anyhow. Forward spots will be
held by 6-2 Fred Skeels and 6-2
Wes Jackson. Center duty will be
handled by either Caudill or Bar
rong. Guards are sure to be 5-7
Brady Montgomery and 5-10 Bill
Oerding. The latter two are both
deceptive and fleet afoot. They us
ually do most of the scoring.
Ready for reserve action are
Gary Cripps, Marvin Fray, Tom
my Burgess, Rod Hoenish, who
was moved back to the varsity
roster, Bill Kelly and Larry Sloan.
Jayvee action between the two
schools gets the show under way
at 6:30 p.m.
