a II if : i . i -lit i.i; an I hi f State Hoop Tourney Competition to be Closed; Fast T With the state high school has ketball tournament only four weeks in the offing, the following teams appear to be favorites to win th hnnnr nf rar irinat inn far -- - - - -r the championship: Salem. Bandon, Medford. McLoughlin Union. Tilla mook. Bend. University high of Eugene, Baker, Astoria, and Ben son high of Portland. If the prediction is fulfilled, only half the teams which ap peared here last spring will be re entered. Wallowa, Franklin high of Portland, Eugene. Marshfield. and Pendleton are those which probably will not win out in their districts this year. Salem, Medford, McLoughlin Union and Tillamook are "doped" as the schools which will make it the hottest in the tournament. In the Coos Bay district, Bandon high, coached by John Fasnacht. former Willamette university hoop star, has defeated all leading con tenders except Marshfield. This game was cancelled on account of the infantile paralysis scare, but the two teams probably will meet tj) the finals of the district tourna nient, with Bandon the favorite to win. McLoughlin. Union high of Milton-Freewater is mowing down opponents in the far eastern Ore gon district, and Baker looms as the champion in the neighboring district. The situation there is a bit uncertain, however, as dis trict tournaments will be held March 2 and 3 to determine the representatives. Ry Abbot, stellar Ashland high forward, is out for the season with a broken arm so Medford is con sidered the best chance of coming out of southern Oregon. The two schools meet each other in a ser ies of four games this week-end and next. Ashland and Medford both toppled Grants Pass, Klam ath Falls and Roseburg." Corvallis high will run Univer sity high a close race in the dis trict adjoining Salem, but Univer sity high, coached by Roy Oker berg. all-coast center, is expected to pull out. " Tillamook has conquered all tams in Its district and has fifteen straight victories, one of them by a 55 to 0 score. Russell Rarey. Willamette graduate, coaches that team. Benson and Washington lead the divisions in the Portland city title race. Benson has a better balanced team than Washington which relies mostly upon its stel lar, high scoring center, Lewis. Bend npset Hood River in a game last week-end at the mld Oregou city. They play again at Hood River this week to decide who will enter the tournament Hood River used the percentage 'ycra against, Bend and scored only two points in each quarter. Astoria has little competition in I's district of small schools, and wttn a veteran team will make trouble for some of th t it !- con lenuers. Astoria dropped two eari season games, however, to Salem. raiem nas only West Linn to L II . i nuraie in. two games before its claim to the district title is secure BECK TO DEPART FOR S. F. TRYOUT Johnny Beck, pitcher for the Sa im Senators last season, will leave tomorrow for San Francisco where he will report to the Seals for spring training. The aquad will go to Monterey next Monday His home is at Mt. Angel. Fans here who recall the effec tive pitching Beck did for Salem and especially his remarkable re Uef chucking in a game at Port land when he saved the Senators' chance to win the first half cham plonship. are confident that he will make a go of it in coast league ball. In case heJloesn't. however Manager Frisco Etnrards of the Senators says that Beck will find a place on the roster of the loca' quad awaiting him at any time That crucial game at Portland was the first that Beck pitched pHyed in the City league, but the Why Risk the Dangers that result from A Bad Cold It is easier and safer to stop that cough now with SCHAEFER'S THROAT AND LUNG BALSAM ' v Schaefer's DRUGSTORE 135 North Commercial St t 'f .

DIAMOND DROLLERIES j A jear ago the baseball world in reneral bad not heard of Frank Hogan. Bis. law-boned, inexpert eiiced. but full of pep, he joinrd the Boston fttsives tor a tryout and remained to become th . team's first string receiver. Frank avcl Jimmy Walsh, out fielder, wtre sent to the Giants recently in the odd deal that hunted Rogers Hornsby, out standing player of the league, to Boston. When the news of the trade was carried to Hogan. he pondered the matter a moment and then re marked : "Well, that's one deal the Gi ants got the better of." Andy Cohen, young Jewish star to be tried out by the New York Giants in the spring, was with Buffalo in the International League last season. He tells this one on himself: He was sent in to pinch hit, for Eddie Murphy. The announcer. through his megaphone, yowled out the message: "Cohen batting for Murphy! Cohen hatting for Murphy!" Over behind the first base line a big truck driver yawned, arose, picked up his hat and coat and started for the exit. And as he did so he yelled out in a voice that put the megaphone man to shame: "Flanagan leaving the park! Flanagan leaving the park!" NEW YORK. Feb. 14.

OF I BALL LEAGUE CHICAGO. Feb. 14. (AP Support of the American legion's nation-wide junior baseball pro gram by the major leagues was assured today when the advisory council guaranteed 550,000 to ward its development. The program of the legion will bring 100,000 boys into baseball competition each year, culminat ing in a little world's series be tween representatives of the east and west. The plan as presented to Com missioner K. M. Landis. President John A. Heydler of the National league, and President E. S. Bar nard, of the American league, by Dan Sowers, national director of the Americanism movement of the American Legion, is comprehen sive. It calls for the division of each state into sections, the sev eral winners playing off for the state championship. The state champions will clash n regional! tournaments late in Jnly. Thenj the regional tltlenolders win meet to decide the two teams to com pete in the finals. "It will arouse a greater inter est in the national game among thousands of boys throughout the country," said Judge Landis. "I feel that we have taken part iu a great work today to establish the permanent and healthy growth of baseball." "This is the most compre hensive and creditable thing the majors have ever done for the boys and the perpetuation of the game," said President Heydler. "It will automatically result, in thousands of players being re served throughout the nation un der the supervision of a well governed and patriotic body." "In voting unanimously to stand behiud the American Legion mi its campaign to foster greater interest in baseball and Ameri canism in general among the boys of the nation, I believe the major leagues have taken a step that will neet with the endorsement of the public." commented President W t. 11 U 1 u. Two years ago the legion sought to develop its junior baseball pro gram into a national event, but ast year was forced to abandon it when the national convention was held in Paris. The division of the states into regions Include: Number 1 Washington, Ore gon, Idaho. Montana. Number 2 California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona. Number 3 North Dakota, south Dakota, Wyoming, Ne braska.

(AP) Establishing a new mark for women by skiing from Upper Wood river valley to the Crater lake rim and return, a listance of 32 miles. Delia Mal ory, 22, of Crescent, defeated Ida Sriscoe, of Fort Klamath, in a stir ring race today, with record time of 7 hours five minutes. Miss Briscoe's time was 7 hours 20 min utes. Miss Mallory started at 6:55 a. iu. on the long trek up the snow covered slopes of the moun tains to the rim of Crater lake, 2,200 feet above the valley. Miss Briscoe had left 15 minutes earlier but she was overtaken at Crater lake lodge, 16 miles from their starting point. The two girls then rested a few minutes and a 11:52 a. m. skimmed down the hill from the lodge on their homeward' jour aey. Yesterday Miss Billy Gray made the trip on skU in 9 hours 15 minutes, thereby breaking all pre vious records. PORTLAND. Feb. 14. (AP) Charlie Belanger, light" heavy weight of Vancouver, B. C, scored technical knockout in the fourth round tonight in his scheduled ten round battle with Bob Mariels, Portland. Belanger. the more ex perienced fighter, tied Mariels up in such thorough fashion that the Portland boy was unable to con tinue. The referee stopped the fight. Belanger weighed 179 and Mariels one pound less. In the second of the two ten round, main event bouts Joe Mar cus, Portland, won a decision from Johnny Woods of Seattle. It was a hard fought battle although not spectacular. Marcus wfn the margin on points by his excellent ringmanship. They are 133 pounders.

Feb; 14. (AP) Most of the streams and lakes of Oregon that have been closed to angling during the past three years witfbe opened. 'when the next 1 fishing eeason opens April 15. This was recommended by the deputy game wardens through out the state, meeting here in con vention today, and ordered by the tate game commission. It has been the theory of con servationists for many years, not oniy in tnis state nut m many others, to make game refuges from which fish will distribute thejnselves to adjacent waters, gam commission m'en pointed out; hut practical experience has convinced them that the applica tion of this theory does not work as planned. The plan decreases the amount of water that can be fished and concentrates the fish ing on fewer streams. "Talking- protection facts" said Ben Dorris of Eugene, member of the commission, "the law-abiding sportsmen respect these closed stream and are penalized to the extent that the number of places where ihey can fish are decreased. Violating fishermen slip in mean while and fish the streams; they practically have a private fish re serve maintained for them by the state. So the streams are fished heavily enough to defeat the pur- u.s, an first ST. MORITZ, Switzerland. Feb. 14.- (AP). A day of bickering and dispute ended tonight with the crowning of the United States' firflt champion of the 1928 Olym pic games. That honor fell to Irving Jaffee of New York, who was officially recognized as 10.000 meters speed skating champion by the executive commission of the international Olympic committee. The commission's action came after August T. Kirby. official representative of the United States, had proteated cancellation of the race because of the soggy condition of the ice at a time when six of the contestants already had completed their heats. The furore over the 10,000 me ters event came after, Clas Thun berg of Finland had captured the 1500 meters race, the only other event of the skaitng program to day. Jaffee by covering the longer distance in 18 minutes 36 5-10 seconda was leading the field and. was considered an almost certain winner when the race was called off by an official of the interna tional skating federation. Kirby and P. J. Malqueen, Can adian representative, immediately protested. Kirby pointed out that Eddie Murphy of Chicago had been forced to compete in the 500 me ters event yesterday in a blinding snowstorm. Both Kirby and Mul aueen were agreeable to a post niinement but vigorously com plained agalnet cancellation. Failing to obtain a reconsidera tion from the federation official, Kirby took his case to the interna tianal committee. OREGON CITY. Feb 14. (AP) With sensational team work that at times took on un canny speed and dash, the Salem high school basketball team swept to a 64 to 30 victory tonight over the highly rated West Linn five. The game was played on the West Linn court before a large and en thusiastic crowd. Duffy. Lyons and Beecher worked perfectly in the Salem scoring combination. West Linn waa powerless in its attempts to stop the Salem lads as they swept down the floor time and time again in perfectly-timed, splendid ly executed drives for points. Tuor of West Linn was the out 'standing player for the locals. Bv defeating West Linn on the floor by such an Impressive score Salem high school practically cliacned its claim to the district title and the right to enter the state basketball tournament here March 15. 16. and 17. The two teams m?et again in Salem, but the local should find no difficulty whatever in downing Coach Brown's men on the Salem floor. Coach Anderson has been point ing his men for West Linn all sea son as that was expected to be the greatest obstacle in winning the district title. - With Tom Duffy back in hte line-up. the team worked with precision and despite the fact that the West Linn lads piled up enough points themselves to win any ordinary game, the Sa lem players more than doubled the score on them. The dates for the games at Eu gene have been changed on ac count of conflicts with other ath letic events at University of Ore gon this week end. Salem plays the Oregon freshmen Thursday night Instead of Friday, and Eu gene high Friday night instead of Saturday. ... OLYMPIC 11 SALEM HIGH CAGERS CRUSH WEST LI 5 pose of the closing orders and no benefits accrue. "This is a large state and the finances of the commission will not permit the employment of enough wardens to prevent viola tors from considerably depleting, closed streams. "The commission haa changed its policy of planting large num-i bers of small fish and has gone to the other extreme of planting smaller numbers of large fish. Fish almost large enough to be caught lawfully immediately after planting. Planting this type of fish, the commission has come to the conclusion that we can stock these streams and open them up. Our idea Is not to preserve the fish in a museum, but to put them out to be caught. "We may be wrong but we're going to try it out. If it is proved that we aren't improving the qual ity and quantity of the fishing in the state, we will reconsider." The commiesion's order opens practically every bit of water in the state except that immediately adjacent to hatcheries and egg taking stations immediately above and below natural and artifical obstructions and fish ladders and a few lakes that have not been planted long enough to allow the young fish to become sizeable and habituated to their surroundings.
