An epidemic of Injuries has track the Faculty nasKeiDaii team on the eve of it crucial game tonight with Parrish Junior hlrh. and the pedagogue were looking op rale books last night to determine) whether strew ner hearers would be allowed to carry them around the court. Every nlarer Is Injured; Hank has "busted" Jaw, Fresher a "fractur ed" knee, Cranor a "cared-In" rib, Gilmore a "mashed" nose, Dry nan a black eye and Brown Is suf fering from "lardosis." seriously speaking, this is an important game, and last year a similar contest drew the biggest erowd of the season aside from the state tournament. Three of the faculty hoopsters teach at Parrish, and they are anxious to win in order to retain the proper respect among the underclassmen. And, In very truth, all of them are a little bunged up from re cent competition, but that may not hamper them greatly. Coach Brown, who tells the Par rish boys what to do and plays for the Faculty, heard while in McMinnvllle last week that some of his boys were ineligible, and is planning to file a protest against them. However it has been agreed to delay the protest until after the game, when. In case the. Faculty wins, it will not be necessary. The preliminary game tonight will be at 7 o'clock, between the Parrish Trojans and Albany jun ior high, on the Parrish floor. The Parrish-Faculty game will follow Immediately. Lincoln Champ; Benson Second Tourney Quint DALLAS FIVE WIN'S The Junior high school All-Stars of Dallas won a close basketball game at the Salem Y. M. C. A. last night from the local Junior high gym class by a 16-15 score. In a second game another team from Dallas, the boy scout "Midgets," defeated a Salem Y prep gym class five, 13-8. Scoring Stars of Hockey By BURNLEY Lyness Also Bests Reed: Going Rough Any hopes the wrestling fans here had of deciding whether Robin Reed is really a better wrestler than Henry Jones, were blasted when Ray Lyness, the Vancouver, Wash., middleweight, defeated Reed as he had four times won from Jones. Reed par tisans however, claimed Lyness had a harder time going in beat ing their favorite, and pointed out tnat In the deciding round. Reed had Lyness "down, but the fall wasn't allowed because one arm was outside the ropes. It wasn't the clean match that gome fans had anticipated. Early In the game Lyness did some ex pert flesh-pulling and Reed re taliated wth some ear - twisting and then the trouble started. Reed won the first fall after 20 minutes, 35 seconds of fast ac tion, with a series of whip wrist locks and a body press. Lyness won the second in 11:30 with an arm bar and the third In 14 with a short arm bar and body press. Mutt Eddy defeated Bob An derson in the one-hour bout which also had its rough moments. Eddy took the first fall-In 15 flat with Boston crab, and the third In 1:20 with a body slam. Ander son won the second in 7:10 with a body press.

(AP) The basketball tossers of Lin coln high clinched the 1933 Port land Interscholastic league hoop title today by defeating the Ben son Tech quintet, 38 to 24. Lincoln has lost but one contest of 12 engagements and with but one remaining game on the sched ule leads Benson in second place with 10 wins and three losses. The Rail-Splitters will be the number one team from Portland In the state tournament at Salem while the Techmen will be entered as the number two squad. After having already defeat-. ed Lebanon by a cloee score for the official Linn county A league championship, Albany high won out in the county tournament sponsored by Al bany college last week end, and will be here for the district tourney Friday. Sllverton, Gate and Tangent are we other entries. SUverton hasn't played Albany, as fa as we re call, but had rather an easy time with Lebanon, so Silver ton will be big favorite to cop the honors here Saturday nlgnt. In connection with our sugges tion the other day that high school basketball teams coached by Willamette grads could put on a fast tournament f they could be gotter together, it should be men tioned that one Bearcat-coached team, possibily two, will be heTe for the state tournament, but they won't meet unless they reach the finals. The team that la sure to come is West Linn, coached by John Paul Brown, 21. Drown didn't play basketball In col lege, but was a highly efficient guard and tackle on tne loot- ball team and catcher in base ball season. A deadly serious, hard worker, fiery in a game,1 and a cloee student of all sports. He coached at Grants Pass for a while, then followed Rein Jackson, another Bearcat, at West Linn. SEATTLE. March 1 (AP) Breaking the scoring record of the Pacific Coast northwest dlvf- sion basketball conference, Ed Lewis, lanky center of the cham pionship Oregon State college quad, made 17S points during the past season, figures compiled today revealed. The previous record of 171 points was set by Harold Stowell of the University of Idaho In 1930, and tied in 1931 by Hunt ley Gordon of Washington State college. The 1C high scorers In the 16 .games played were as follows PG FT TP Lewis, O. S. C C7 Roberts, Ore 50 Barrett, Ida 51 Gordon, W. 8. C. ...38 Cross, W. S. C 37 Wills. W. S.

Its mis fortune was to be in the same district with Salem. Each year there was a hectic struggle be tween West Linn and Salem, but Salem always nosed out ahead. Brown's teams have been threats, but didn't quite make It until this year. Two or three factors have contributed to his success: one is his habit of giving a lot of at tention to his "B" team, building for the future; another is care ful attention to fundamentals, re sulting In the unique record that in the last two seasons, no west Linn player has left the tioor witn four personal fouls. Anotner is Brown's own strategy. This year Oregon City had defeated his team twice, but in the tourna ment, he uncovered a new style of play that his boys had been practicing in secret all season, and won out. The other Bearcat - coached team likely to come to the tourney la Tillamook, from dis trict IS, hich la baring Its de cisive series, but not exactly a tournament, this week. Mc Minnvllle, Newberg, Gaston, Nehalem and Hillsboro are in the race. Check off Lincoln, Benson and Eugene high as coming, and make the present score 7 to 2 for our side. Portland Club's Permit to Keep Park is Delayed PORTLAND, March 7. (AP) The permission sought by the Portland Baseball club to use the Vaughn Street park for games during the coming season was de layed again in the city council chamber today. An ordinance with an emer gency clause, which required un animous council action, was pre sented to allow them use of a vacated street that runs through the ball grounds. Commissioner A. L. Barbur objected. Futher action will be taken next week. 95 94 92 89 88 87 84 83 83 1 FORE PLUS TURNER GIRLS LOSE AUMSVILLE, March 7 The Turner Town team girls were de feated by the Aumsville Alumni team on the local floor Friday night by a score of 13-15. f ' '( - j P A c It's no longer just "fore" on the lf links.

The explanation for Northcott's sudden rise from the ranks fa sim cle.

Ton cant make goals from that position, no matter new good you are. sat tats Northcott was riven a chance to do a little playing and he did plenty. Bill Cook calls him one ox the most dangerous shots in the league, and Cook ought to know. Another puck plier wno nas oeen twisting them into the net persist ently is Paul Thompson of the Chi cago Black Hawks. Thompson backs up our argument anent Nortneou by talking right op and saying that he was kept in the shade by the uoau and outer nirn scorers, wnea he was with the Bangers, simply because he wasnt riven the chance to play. Youll recall that Thomp son asked tor us release zrom tne Rangers two years aro because he felt he could never shine en a team that had scoring aces galore. Well, Thompson proved his ability whea he earns to the Chicago aggrega tion. The arrumenti of course, ia bo way is a criticism of the tendency of manarers to nlar the men they think are their bast bets for win ning games. Not at all. But from the viewpoint of the youngsten (usually the excellent vantage poinl afforded by the bench) such a waj of the world is a distinct handicap Talking of high scorers and what not, the spotlight must needs lingei benignly on Nels Stewart of the Boston uroins.

(AP) Maybe the lure of the storming, admiring galleries will make the famous showman of the fairways change his mind, but Walter Hagen plans to retire from all ac tive competition after his 1933 golf .e ngagements here and abroad. His Plan, revealed today by a reliable source. Is to wage a ser ious campaign to recover his major titles on both side of the Atlantic, captain America's Ryder cup team to victory in England, and then retire to the business of designing golf clubs and equipment. Although "The Haig" has been one of the big money winners of the current winter campaign, with his total earnings placed at around 12000, he is 40 years old and anxious to say goodbye to ac tive big time golf while he's still regarded aa one of the truly great shot makers. Moreover, his connec tion with a golf elub manufac turing house Is demanding more and more of his time. mmi fin wmmmm . mV. mmmsi& vm VP ItlVli fjjir t A) J i wh 0 in i. i if fr U 'If -BECK IS BROOKLYN PRIZE ROOKIE HE IS RATEQ THE BEST RIGHT-HANDER THE SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION HAS PRODUCED SINCE VANCE!

(AP) Henry Woods, Yakima negro lightweight, knocked eat - Baby Sal Sorlo, Los Angeles Mexican, la the first round Of a scheduled six- round boat here tonight. DEPUTATION is a great! thing, and so is a price tag. But both of them have cer tain qualities that have been lik ened to a curved wooden missile used ia war and ia the chase by nativt Australians. And they do say that when a rep utation, or a price tag. hurled con fidently and with much eclat into the faces of the fans, comes hurtling back from the blue; there is noth ing that connects with such stun ning and decisive force. There are two baseball recruits who start the 1933 season with those things aad we are making bold to offer our fatherly warnings hers and now. The renuemea are Wal ter Beck, who makes his debut with the Dodgers midst a cloud of opti mistic now-wow coacernhur his abil- ities as a pitcher ; aad George Stain- back, who opens with the Cabs by virtue of a purchase price of 7S,000 many pennies, aad thay want yea to know it. It Is touch to Htb aa to a reouta- tloa, aad equally as ley to justify 375,000. Someone Is always yelling, "So YOU'RE the guy they said was Joe Genius," or, "Oh, you $76,000 Deny l- it's rude to shout out like that, but baseball fans don't wear lavendar socks. Beck and Stainback have their work cut out for them. Beck is to be used as a regular pitcher with the Dodgers and plenty is expected of him. He's not exactly a novice. rne Browns tried him out twice, and he has been with the minors for fire years, lie is touted as the best righthander the Southern Associa tion has arodueed since Dazxv Vance. Last year with Memphis he woa twenty -Tea games and lost six, and his record for three seasons with the outfit shows sixty-two vic tories aad twenty-five the other way around. A good record. Beck is a seasoned pitcher; you can see that. He's twenty-eerea years old aad carries 200 pounds spread ever 6 feet t inches. The larre zeuow is from Illinois. ? The big money lad, Stainback, to the Cabs after a sensa tional season ' with Los Angel, He's beea with the Coast League for three years. Major League scouts slate him for stardom and he shows every indication of ful filling their prophecies. His posi tion is ia the outfield and he ia aaid to be great guns as a batter. There is plenty money on the young gent. ms tegs are insured xor smmhw ana his throwing arm for 1 25.000. Here's hetrins? he wont over-reach himself in trying to Justify the price on his head. ' Another candidate for whom bis things are predicted is George Puc dnellL who comes to the Cards from Rochester.; -George did things in a Dig way last season, leading the International League in batting. Ano tne way things look tn the Car- dinal outfield, lie should have a good chance for a berth, - These three boys are the out standing National League rookies of the new season. It does seem as if the American League exceeded in quantity if not ia quality ia the rookie business this year, but yea cant tell about quality at this stage ex us season. You can only gu and. if you're a manager, pray. int. Dm rni-n SWnli, k
