Dizzy ELDER DEAN IS I1ER.TELLS Thinks American League Let Good Bet Go in Ruth's . Move to National By ALAN GOULD A.P. Sports Editor BRADENTON, Fla.. March 6.-(fl'J-rThere won't be any feud this year between the National lea gue's two most colorful and com manding personalities. -1 have the solemn word of Jer ome Herman "Dlizy" Dean that he holds nothing but admiration and the highest respect for George Herman "Babe" Ruth. In fact Dizzy asked me today to carry the olive branch back to the Babe at St. Petersburg and tell the vet ' eran slugger that he' "Dizzy" will do the best he can to strike him out when they meet in an-' exhi bition game on March 20 "Let's get this all straightened out now," said the elder of the celebrated Dean brothers as he sat In the club house of the world champion Cardinals' training camp. "They hare been putting me on the pan for what I said about Ruth, when I first heard v he was coming into the National league. Maybe I popped off sud-den-llke, but they got me wrong Nothing Personal About It, Dizzy Avers I haven't got a thing against Ruth, personally. I never have had.. I think he's as great a guy as there has ever- been in base ball. He's my friend and he's given me some good advice. If he goes good In our league this year and I hope he does, against every club but the Cards it 'will mean $5,000 more on my contract for im. "We wilt outdraw the American league all around this season, with Ruth helping to pull in the fans. I can't understand how the club owners of that league ever let tho Babe get away. That's what 1 jneant when I criticized the Amer ican league. How could they have been so shortsighted as not to give their greatest player a man ager's Job?" Will Pitch to Babe as To Other Tough Hitters How will Dizzy pitch to Ruth? "Just like any other tough hit ter and then hope for"the best," he replied. The irrepressible Dizzy already ' has wagered, even money, that Ruth Won't hit a home run off him in the first four times at bat ' passes excluded. Branch Rickey, vice-president of the world cham pions, bets the Babe won't hit for the circuit off the elder Dean all season but Dizzy says: "He's a cjnch to lose that bet."

Revenge on Salem Had, Multnomah The Multnomah club amateur wrestling team got their revenge for an upset handed them by the Salem Y. M. C. A. grapplers two weeks ago when they defeated the local team six matches to three in the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium last night. All of the matches were close and interesting with especially good wrestling being shown by the three Salem winners, Lee Knowles, Chester Pugh and Mc Loughlin. No heavyweight match was staged as the Multnomah man was unable to make the trip because of Illness. A fairly good crowd attended the event which was one of a series of amateur shows the Y. M. C.

Merriam Upheld By House; $200 Refused, Ballot The house came to the defense of Representative Howard Mer riam yesterday afternoon and flatly refused approval of an ap propriation measure which would provide 1200 for the state's share in the Merriam recall election to be held this month in Lane coun ty. Reconsideration of the house's action is expected since state of ficials said last night that it was mandatory for the secretary of state to provide . the necessary forms for the vote. In presenting the appropriation bill, Represen tative Semon apologized for the measure on the ground of legal necessity and said he hoped the recall would fall. Representative Hannah Martin commented that she thought the bill "out to pass out." Merriam faces recall because of his alleged failure to keep a campaign promise and support the Townsend old-age pension plan. ".- BEAVER SERIES STYLE SETTLED Man to Man Defense Will Be Employed by Gill Five This Weekend CORVALLIS, Ore., March (JP)-Th Oregon State college bas ketball team which turned in the best defensive record in the coast conference this season, will use man to man defense in its cham pionship playoff series here this weekend against University of Southern California. The announcement was made th'.i afternoon by Coach "Slats" Gill who has trained his Beaver basketeers this season 'in use of both the man to man and the zone system. The Beavers allowed con ference opponents an average of 25 points a game this season. Earl Conkllng, Beaver center, may be given the gigantic task of guarding Lee "Rubber Legs" Guttero, Southern California cen ter who has averaged 15 points a game this season. Alter nates for Conkllng are Cliff Fo len and Wilbur Kidder. Bob Bergstrom or Fred Hill probably will watch Jack Hupp, the Trojan's classy forward. Picking of Subs Aids In Success In all preparations for the ser ies Coach Gill has given the same attention to his substitutes as to his regulars. His uncanny ability in picking the right substitute at the right time Is considered one of the main reasons for Oregon State's success this season. An example of his acumen at substitution making was when he sent Art Merry man a fox-terrier-like player in to check Sonnedecker of Washington State college. Playing his substitution art again, Coach Gill inserted Hub Tuttle against Oregon and he pro vided the needed scoring punch, defensive bolstering and most of all, a contagious spark of aggres siveness. When the Beavers were slow ing down too much in their last game against Idaho, "Doctor" Gill diagnosed the case and sent in Merle Taylor and Cliff Folen, with the desired speeding up re sulting.

It all conies from coaching basketball, he says, and a few more years will make hinvr a real believer in the black art. Sooner or later it comes to all basketball coaches The jinx that has Prof. Sparks worried Is the fact that his fresh man teams for the last year or two haven't been able to get over the 13 hurdle. After winning 13 games in a row the team gets stuck and can't for the five lives of it add another win to the col umn. The Bearklttens won 13 and up to now have dropped six in a row. The Identical thing happened to last year's frosh outfit and It has Lestle worried. It seems that boundary dis putes are ticklish questions, whether it's a "54:40 or fight" proposition or a basketball dis trict. We guess we popped right into the middle of one when we brought up the Gates-Mill City Oregon's share in a state relief program for the next biennium was completed late yesterday when the senate gave its quick ap proval of a 11,000,000 general fund appropriation for the relief of unemployable and indigent persons.

Governor Martin has already approved another $1,006,000 gen eral fund appropriation for old age pensions, the funds to be used by the counties when federal funds are available as match mon eys. Provision for an additional $4, 000,000 for relief has been made by increasing the appropriation from state liquor funds to $5. 500,000. The state has already ad vanced 1,500.000 from these funds for relief purposes in the state.

Here's what Gene has to say: "Perhaps apologies had best be due the 'someone in the north end who aspires to a championship.' At no time was anyone in the north end of the county ambitious to have more than their Just rights.

TOLL REMOVAL IS After more than a month in committee, a bill providing the state highway commission with authority to take tolls off the coast bridges, came out In the house yesterday with a favorable report. The house committee on high ways and highway revenues made its report following a conference with Governor Martin in his of fice early Wednesday morning.
