om State Salem Hi Rooks Defeat: Qrainitel 31 to ORANGE SQUAD REVEALS SPEED Players Handle Basketball Like Baseball, and Shoot ing is Accurate ; A strapping big crew of lads who handled a basketball a s though It were a base-ball, repre entlne the Oregon State college "rook" class, descended upon the lair of the Salem high quintet Wednesday night and mopped up to the tune of 31 to 12. These boys fired the ball at each other In dazzling fashion and handled it at top speed; and when thsy got anywhere In scoring dis tance they looped it througn tne basket with almost unbelievable accuracy. , When the Salem team got pos session of the ball, these same orange shirted men checked so 'closely and bo fiercely that the lighter local boys were unable to i break In close to the basnet, ana for once their offense, which ap- pears lightning fast against other high school teams, looked posl- t tlvely: slow. , i A lack of deceptlTeness, not no tlcceble In Salem high's other . games, here, showed up In the ' nlavera' unsuccessful efforts to ' maneuver for shooting clearance But they fought hard, and their effective defense was demonstra ted when they held the fast colleg- tans to so low a score. Late Rally Stag! The" Salem team showed to the best ' advantage shortly after th' second half opened, when it gain ed back part of the 12 to 5 lead which the Rooks held at half time. : Bnt after this sDurt. the Rooks "rot hot" on cripple shots and ran their score up to a safe lead This was Salem high's last game on the home floor, except for pos lle challenges.

Copyright, 1929. by Ctntral PrtM AMocUUoa, lac vm m m TROUBLE LOOMS OVER OED ME Salem High School Demand Hearing on Action of Mc Minnville to Collect $30 Salem high school has demand ed a hearing before the board of control of the state high school athletic association as a result of notice from Roy A. 6annon. sec retary of the association, that tht local school shall send its first team to McMinnville for a game with that high school or forfeit $30 for a breach of contract. Principal J. C. Nelson, following a conference with Coach Louie Anderson, informed Cannon b y letter Wednesday that Salem, felt a hearing was In order. History of Case The present action grew out of a game with McMinnville at that city February 8, when Salem's second team represented this school. The Monday following the game. Principal William J. Max well and Coach G. L. Allison of McMlnnvlllie paid Nelson a call to protest the local's action in sending the second team. Mr. Nel son immediately told them he agreed Salem had been at fault In not notifying McMinnville that the Salem second team was being sent over and offered to arrange another game-, at McMinnvllle's convenience between the first teams of each school. The offer for another game and attempts to explain the situation to the McMinnville student body were ignored when Barney Cam eron, Salem student body pres ident, and Joe Cameron, athletic manager, appear in McMinnville for that purpose the day following the visit to this city. Nelon SUtee Position So the matter rested until Can non wrote Principal Nelson for Sa lem's version of the affair, to which Nelson replied, stating ir. part that failure to inform the Yamhill school that it was sending the second team was a grevious error on the partf Salem, and that Salem had made a proposi tion for another game, Mr. Nelson pointed out, however, that since McMinnville was expecting the first team up to the evening of the game there had been no fi nancial loss and that Salem had easily, defeated McMinnville in a previous game. The contract only stipulates twt games "between the teams ol these schools," Mr. Nelson point? out, and inasmuch as Salem made overtures for a third game, offi cials here believe the McMinnville case Is akin to some of the pretty breach of promise cases that find their way to the front pages; with the school suffering not so much from a broken heart as a desire to collect on the $30 forfeiture. In his letter demanding a hear ing. Nelson says: "We have offer ed them -an opportunity to make more money with another game, but they have refused to consider It. and I shall not repeat the offer as long as you try to attach a pen alty to it." The principal holds that Cannon has violated article four, section five of the athletic association constitution providing that the board shall give the ac cused school due notice of the time and place of the hearing and an opportunity to be heard' in its own defense before it shall have been Judged guilty of breaking a contract. Cannon has no right to impose such action as he has taken with out a hearing. Nelson believes, and s ready for a show-down. r turw aqoond here. AMD LET f-l TlW C3ACK 'FORE r RJft. pity's SAK OHAT'S ALO-THIS? " UC I tOASHCf OFF I'LL New Rule on Fumble Will Aid Grid Game, Coaches Opine; Heroes Dethroned The new rule on fumbling In football, whereby a Idefensive play er in prevented from running with the ball after recovering, a fumble, will permit the offense to take more chances in handling the ball than before, and that will have a tendency to open up" the game even more than at present and make It more spectacular. Such Is the verdict of both Coach "Spec' Keene of Willam ette and Coach Louis Anderson of Salem high. , "It will result in more trick and open plays," said Anderson, and since that type of play is the one that he has used consistently here, he believes it will be a fa vorable change for his teams. While agreeing that In general the new rule will open up the game and make it more spectac ular. Coach Keene pointed out that by eliminating the run for touchdown after a defensive play, er recovers a fumble, another fea ture of the game which has made Stayton Plays Pleasant Hill Quint Thursday 'STAYTON, Feb. 20. (Special) Stayton high school basketball team will meet Pleasant Hill high of Lane county in a double head er on the local floor Thursday evening.

"If this rule had been In effect 15 years ago. Brazier Small never would have been a hero," Coach Keene pointed out, referring to the time when the present Justice of the pe-ace, playing halfback for WlHamtte. scooped up a loose bail and galloped for a touchdown that presented the. local school wun a !torv over the University of Oregon. "Go back into football history and apply this rule to all the games that have been played, and a lot of games would be awarded to the teams that lost them, and a lot of championships would be upset," Keene said' "But after all those thrilling runs nave been few, while the new rule will give the offensive team more confidence on every play, knowing that a fumble will not be so costly, and the total effect will be a gain rather than a loss from the spectators' stand point.

Sports Writer MIAMI BEACH. Fla., Feb. 20. (AP) The business activities of Jack Sharkey and Young Strib llng, two prominent young heavy weights, regained a place in the , sun today, with the smoothing away of the problem of selecting a referee for their engagement here one week from tonight. The furrowed brow of sun blackened Jack Dempsey, making a troubled debut as a sports pro- moter. was clearing rapidly ae he left for Palm Beach tonight to take part with Babe Ruth in a charity-performance. The former champion carried a telegram rn his pocket from James A. Farlty, chairman of the New York State, Athletic commission, granting rugged Lou Magnolia the right to act as referee when the Boston tar and the Georgian square off in. Glamlgo park. . Johnny Buckley, manager of Sharkey and Pa Stribling, father of the southern ace. met with. Dempsey today, and adopted the New York commission rules in general as the governing la. This was necessary since Florida has no boxing commission and no fistic ' code of its own. Some changes may be made at another meeting Monday when the ques tion of Judges will be decided. 1 iniNGll DAY IN IS Charles W.
