FIRST GAME 17TH CENTRAL HOWELL, March 10 The school boys are busy practicing baseball and getting the ball grounds ready for the practice game they expect to have Friday The first league game they will play will be Friday, March 17. Salem High Eight Men for State Tourney are Chosen; Outlook Good as Anybody's NINE GUIS SIDED Coach Hollis Huntington of the Salem high school basketball team, host team in the state tournament which opens next Wednesday in the Willamette university gymnasium, has se lected his eight players for tour nament competition. They are: Forwards, John Kelley, Ira Wintermute, John Perrine. Centers, Oswald Morley, Ben Thomas. Guards, Harry Mosher, Melvln En gel, Vern DeJardin. Salem's chances appear to be practically on a par with those of at least half a dozen teams classed as contenders, inasmuch as the red and black divided games with Astoria, Silverton, Eugene and Corvallls, and these teams played on even terms with some of the other leaders. The only high school to defeat Salem twice was Tillamook, and both those defeats were by two- point margins. One factor wmcn is disturbing Coach Huntington, however, is that his team never seemed able to build up a big margin, but always scored Just about even with all opponents, weak, or strong. Salem was not beaten by a high school team by more than four nointa. except by Corrallis on the Corvallls floor. On the other hand Salem won six high school games by less .than rive points. Against other high schools, Salem won eight games and lost six; counting all games it won 12 and lost eight. Kelley led in scoring for the season with 183 points. Other individual nolnt totals were: Wintermute 162, Mosher 70, Morlev 83. Thomas 39. En eel 36. Brownell 18, Perrine 17, Pickens 12, DeJardin 7. LEFORS SCORES 218 THIS M, DALLAS DALLAS, March 10 "Dutch" LeFors, forward on Dallas high's basketball team, finished h? high school basketball career tais year by scoring 218 points for his team. "Dutch" started his basket ball at Dallas high four years ago as a forward on Dave Wright's midget team which went to the state tournament. Since that time LeFors has been a star on three more Dallas teams but has not played in the state tourney. Last year he and his team mates were beaten In the final of the district meet by Corvallls by a 20 to 19 score and again this year they came within a few points of gain ing that goal only to lose to Cor vallls 16 to 14 in an overtime game. Dallas high will lose four play ers off her 1932-33 A squad by graduation but will retain six members of this squad in addition to several players who will move up from the B squad. LeFors, Lewis, Cadle, and Bollman will be lost by graduation while Webb, Hunter, Pleasant, Jones, Kliever, and Robinson will be back next year. Fred Lewis, another player who will graduate, turned in the sec ond best scoring record with 141 points this season. Webb,, center on Shreeve's team, took third place for the season with 119 points. Webb also led the scoring for the locals In the county tour nament with 29 points and took high scoring honors in the district meet with another 29 points. The next three high scorers for Dallas this year were: Pleasant, 117; Hunter, 103; and Bollman, 57. Monmouth High Beats Antioch OPE ARE ONE- Silver Foxes win 54 to 21 And Linn Champs Beat Tangent 28 to 18 Opening contests in the district No. 12 basketball tournament In the Willamette university gymna sium were ratbej, one-sided, with the A teams of both Marion ana Linn counties defeating the B out fits from the same counties and winning their way to the finals tdnight. Albany won over Tangent 28 to 18 and Silverton swamped Gates, 54 to 31. Albany and Silverton will engage in tbe finals at 8:30 tonight, following a Tangent- Gates consolation game at 7:30. Tangent threatened strongly in the early part of the second half, and might have had a chance ex cept for the exceptional long range shooting the Albany boys achieved, reputedly for the first time this season. Silverton's smooth attack was entirely too much for Gates, but the south end boys put on a cou ple of rallies, late in the first and third periods, when they momen tarily outshone the favorites. Ball, fast moving and accurate shooting lad, was mainly responsible for these rallies, along with Cline, the fastest man on the floor who however did not figure in the ac tual scoring. Ball divided high scoring hon ors with Scott of Silverton at 14 points. Albany Barnes 4 F. Arthur 10 F. rojiw Klelblock 4 , Bates 10. . . Robertson . Referee, Bashor.

Soma unnul elements or. color and sentiment 4f there ever is anything sentimental about this grim business re embodied In the wrestling pro gram for next Tuesday night. Main event, Henry J one vs. Bobby Roecoe. Nothing in that to excite the fans, but read on. Away back In 1921 Henry Jones and Bobby Roscoe were outstand ing candidates for the welter weight belt the 147 - pound championship held for so long by Jack Reynolds, not the 145- pound title whicn jones now nas cornered. November 1, 1931, they met at Provo, Utah, Henry's home town, and battled for an hour and 38 minutes before Roscoe won the lone fall, putting Henry out of commission with a leg strangle. So Roecoe went on to win the welterweight crown, taking It a ay from Matty Matsuda, Japanese, who had won It from Reynolds. Reynolds turned around and won it back from Roscoe, with 4500 fans look ing on at Columbus, O. That was said to be a record crowd for wrestling at the time. No question that .this Roscoe, of Finnish descent, and also world lightweight champion at one time, has color. He was wrestling in structor at Kansas U., where he was a student. One of his tricks. in younger days, was to drift in to a new town in the guise of a bum," make disparaging remarks about the "joy and pride" of the village, and then dump him, col lectlng numerous side bets. There will be no greenhorns on Tuesday night's program. Bobby Novak and Bulldok Jack son will provide the one-hour bout. The Siege Gun of Philly By BURNLEY TOURNEY TO OPEN MI y hePhilsy .

Kileen Beats Ernie Peters In Fast Bout The old adage that "youth will be served" worked in the case of Jackie Kileen, and enabled him to earn a decision, by an unmis takable but not too wide mar gin, over Ernie Peters, the In dian battler from Chicago, in the main event at the armory Friday night. Kileen seemed to be learning a number of things as he went along, and was not out-foxed by the more experienced 'glove thrower. It was a good fight and the fans got their money'B worth Mickey Barker, sensational youngster, from Portland, also took the eyes of the fans as he hammered out a decision over Bobby Ambrose of Salem.

There were three leagues in the association last year, and at least four are certain this year, with a six-team Linn county circuit add ed. There will be north and south Marion county leagues, and one for Polk and Yamhill, or possibly each of those counties will have a league. Champion teams in "all of the leagues will engage In a final playoff. Last year this super-title was won by Oervals, northern Marlon county champion. In a playoff with Grand Ronde and stayton. ONCE upon a time well, h was in l2&-the Phillies planked down $7,500 and got ball player from the Fort Wayne Central League dob. That wasnt mock money in 1928. None could tell at that time who got the better part ef the barter, but the answer Is a lot easier today. The ballplayer was Chock Klein. - Hone ether than Gerald Nugent, wresident ef the Phillies, recent! kt h be known that he thinks Klein Is the creates! nlayar in baseball The reasons: because Klein can do .everything the ether stars can do; he's a wondtrfol hitter; a superb - emtfielder: he can throw with the . best rrm the bases and so en and 'an.
