Oregon, Tuesday Morning, February 14 1933 Fans are Sport Variety of At&radtiom r77iT t: ! -4- i : KAiSniL OPPOSE SAILOR Strong Linfield Five Will Oppose Bearcats Tonight; May Spoil Title Chances T ILLAW100K TO SEND HOOPERS Russian Lion Expected to Make Good boy out of Obstreperous gob Al Karasick, the Lion from Rus sia who heeds the advice of a Sa lem professor that the Willamette valley la the only sale place in the United States for blondes and makes bis home in Portland, will pay Salem his third formal visit tonight, coming for a mat contest with Sailor Frantz. Matchmaker Harry Plant has let It be known that his principal thought la signing Karasick at this time, was to see If somebody, short of the referee and the box ing and wrestling commission, could make the sailor behave and wrestle somewhere close to the limits the Police Gazette rules prescribe. Frants was stopped last week but the bout had to stop at the same time, as he was disqual ified on a foul. Plant thinks Karasick will be able to make a good sailor out of a bad one. Meanwhile, the fans will be given their first opportun ity to see what Karasick can do against a man of his own weight, as his two previous appearances were against lighter men. Wildcat McCann and Ernie Arthur, whom be found fairly easy to handle. Karasick is a bull-necked, ferocious-looking individual who puts lots of color into his work, and his recent bouts In Portland have be lied bis announcement on return ing from the south seas, that he would be gentle as a lamb from now on. The one-hour bout will feature a reappearance of Herman Olson, who has grappled here previously, against Tom Ray of Seattle. Though not able to furnish much detailed Information about these men. Plant guarantees some live ly developments. N. W. CONFERENCE W. L. Pet.

Summaries: Congregational Presbyterian Humphries 2 F 5 I. Hale Peters 12 F 9 N. Hale C..6 Goodfellow -O 8 Moore ....G 8 Pence 3 5 Mohr 3 4 Barclay The Linfield college hoopsters, regarded by Coach "Spec" Keene of Willamette as stronger than Whitman which divided a two game series with the Bearcats last weekend, will invade the Willamette court tonight in the hope of gaining revenge for the unexpected defeat the Wildcats suffered at Willamette's hands at Linfield several weeks ago. Since dropping that game to Keene's squad 28-21, the result of a surplus showing of "fight" rather than science on Willam ette's part, Henry Lever's Wild cats have given Indication of ra pid improvement, the most strik ing being a victory, 50 to 33, over Columbia university on Co lumbia's floor. Columbia had pre viously beaten Linflera and split a pair of close games with Wil lamette. Linfield also won from Pacific, 44 to 38. a week ago, and bas won from Albany college. Taken all together, the "dope" aside from Willamette's victory in the first game, favors Lin field tonight. "Mutt" Eckman, playing bis last season at guard and always a scoring threat either close In or from long range, has been Lin field's chief hope heretofore but George Sergeant, another veteran at forward, has been setting the pace in the more recent games. Darby, a third old timer, was Lever's regular center early in the season but a freshman, Dur ham, seems to have nosed him, out of the Job. The team has also been strengthened this sem ester by the return of Stewart, a star from last year. The Helser brothers, one an all-state high school man from Benson Tech, will also be seen In action. Willamette's chief concern Is that a defeat by Linfield would Irrevocably wipe out any pros pects of a championship for the local school, as Whitman with but one defeat bas finished its conference season. Tonight's game will be at 7:30, with the Bearklttens playing a prelimin ary prior to that hour.

Gibson Calbreath 1 .... 8 Stupka 1 S State Title Contender to Oppose Salem High on Court Here Tonight At least three high school bas ketball teams which have distinct state championship possibilities have appeared against Salem high here already this season and two more are to come; Tillamook high, perhaps the strongest of the entire gToup, will be enter tained tonight. The game will start about 8 o'clock, with the Salem B team and the Presbyter ians, Church league leaders, en gaging in a preliminary at 7 p. ni The Tillamook Cheesemakers, always a colorful outfit In their numerous trips to the tourney, have In the past included perhaps one or two notable performers, all-state men or candidates for the honor, and have always been well coached. But as a rule the teams have not been well bal anced, the rest of the quintet not measuring up to the speed and ability of the one or two stars. This year all that appears to be changed; Coach Russ Rarey, a notable football and basketball player at Willamette university In the days of Bob Mathews, for once has plenty of material. That Tillamook high Is well equipped with athletes this season, was evl denced when Rareya football team last fall went undefeated and was considered by competent critics to be the strongest In the state with the possible exception of Jefferson of Portland. Held to Two-Point Victory at Coast Nevertheless Salem's prospects for a victory tonight are not over ly gloomy, for Hollis Hunting ton' squad held Tillamook to a two-point victory on Tillamook's owji floor recently, and the home nor advantage snonid amount to a little more than that many points. Baumgartner, a deceptive floor worker who Is able to find the hoop from any distance or angle, is regarded as Tillamook's strong. est threat though he did not score heavily against Salem in the game at the coast, Kinnamon doing the major part of the tallying la that contest. The Salem high team, which has looked especially impressive in its last two games against weaker opponents, will have to count on having more speed and better marksmanship, for It will be out-sized considerably by the visitors, especially at center. Coach Huntington has been utilizing Thomas in the tipoff po sition food share of the time recently, finding him a better ball handler than Money, who however, baa the edge In jumping and probably In shooting. Thomas will probably start tonight, as there Is little hope of getting any tipoffs from Tillamook's tall piv ot man. Kelley and Wintermute will be the starting- forwards and Engle and Mosher will line up at the other end of the court. Brownell 's ankle injury is not healing rapid ly, and there Is little possibility that he will play any more this season.

A year ago wbdi the Terrible Swedes? a traveling profession-. al basketball team, came to Sa lem the opportunity to see bas ketball at its best was recog nized generally, and a large crowd turned ont to see those experts play the Florshelms in the Willamette gym. This season the Swedes, con trary to early report, are not com ing back; they couldn't get enough games with big enough guarantees In this part of the country to make It worth while. Bat the Tloase of David hoopetera are coming this very week. These boys, with the same length nair and wnuKers as the House of David baseball players -so advance publicity informs will be here Friday night and will play the Salem All-Stars In the Willamette gym. The Davidltes are Just as big as the Swedes, or a little bigger; they range from feet 2 to 6 feet 7, and are all ex college stars. The All-Stars will Include some of the fellows who started the sea son under the Florshelm banner, and some others including Max Allen. all-Northwest conference guard for Willamette last year, and Buck Grayson, former Oregon fttata atar who was here wun Union Oil and Multnomah club this season. The recruits from tne Florshelm ranks will be Burrell, Marr, Foreman and Drager. That the House of David boys play the same class of ball as the Swedes, which means the best class of basketball piayea anywhere, is indicated by the fact that they defeated St. Mary's Gaels 40 to 31 several days ago. We see in a Walla Walla paper that Whitman Is at least assured of a tie for the Northwest confer ence unofficial title. Proving they haven't revised their mathematics up there a bit. Whitman will take the champonship if Willamette loses one game, but there can't be any tie. LOUGH RAN WINNER PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 18. (AP) Tommy Loughran, former light heavyweight champion, punched out a ten round decision over Walter Cobb of Baltimore in the feature match of a boxing card tonight. NEW YORK, Feb. 13 (AP) The country's football coaches and officials today gave a prompt and sweeping vote of approval to the action of the national rules committee in making only two changes in the gridiron eode for 1933, both calculated to improve the sport as well as further reduce possibile causes of injury to the players. The Associated Press found coaches in all sections particular ly pleased with the new sideline xone rule as an aid to the of fense. Their own rules group had recommended it beforehand and the general response today reveal ed little opposition to the new regulations, which automatically provides for the ball to be brought in 10 yards whenever it goes out side or is downed within the side line cone. George Yarn ell of Seattle, prominent west coast official, seemed somewhat skeptical as to Just how the new clipping rule will work out. He suggested it "might create a highly technical situation" but did not expand his meaning. CORBETT UNCHANGED NEW YORK.

In their game at Multnomah club house last Wednesday the. Wolves had a lead of 22 to 10 at half time but began to loaf In the final half, which turned victory Into defeat. Rea Smith of the club team proved the sensation of the even ing when in the last quarter he began slipping them through the rim from almost mid-floor.

Bush S ......a Gwran NOT until next month is half over will anyone be able to say whether the visit of the English women golfers was worth that long trip across the briny for Miss Diana Fishwkk and the five colleagues who accompanied her. The present tournament at Palm Beach Is only In the way of a warm up for the ladies, and if none of them manages to cop the Florida championship there are stQl three more title tournsys la which they plan to carry on. It will be recalled that when Diana Fishwick, then British wom en's champion, came hare In 1931, her showing was poor and she was disappointed. Now. she is third ranking player tn Britain, sad she hopes to do better. And why not? The records show that golf champions rarely do well on their- first visits to foreign shores. What they do later is an other matter. Take the Americans who have gone abroad for their initial at tempts at alien laurels) Bobby Jones, Glenna Collet Vare, Jerry Travers, Chick Evans, Francis Onimet are some who did dismally on their first tries. And then there was the case of Cyril Toller, Brit ish amateur champion, who bounced over in 1920 for a fling at the Am erican title, and promptly bounced back when he failed even to qualify. The English women golfers are well received at the tournaments this year. They lend color and In terest to the matches and aa Inter national Barer is always relished ky the fans. The business of teur standing, which tended to cloud the arrival of Hiss Fishwick, has been dispelled and the play hi on. The Americans are looking to great things from Maureen Orcutt of New Jersey, who seems to be having things her own way on the Florida links. In the last two years Miss Orcutt has won in the major ity of the Winter tournaments tn which she competed. Miss O. S. Hill is another fair lady of the links who is hard to beat in these tour neys. Following the current Florida championship tournament, the Eng lish golfers Will play at Ormond Beach in the South Atlantis cham pionship, at St. Augustine in the Florida East Coast champlonshiy and tn the Bellear tournament.
