The high-flying Linf ields roost atop the conference standings with two wins and no defeats while the Maplemen have hit the won and lost columns once each. Fresh from their two overtime period win against Pacific Tues day night, the Methodists rate a better than even chance 'of up setting the McMinnville Maroons regardless of the 49 to 39 defeat suffered by 'Cats at the hands of the Linfield five last week. In that game Willamette 'blew a 28 to 24 lead midway into the sec ond half when Ted Frazier, Wild cat center, cut loose with a bar rage of baskets. In last year's "battle of the Cats" each team took a win, Wil lamette taking a close 36 to 34 victory here, and Linfield return ing the compliment 56 to 37 at Mc Minnville. The outcome of tonight's bat tle will undoubtedly have a strong tendency to point out this season's championship quintet, although Linfield doesn't play the strong Whitman five this year while the Bearcats have s future Jaunt to make to the Missionary school. Linfield and Willamette meet College of Ida ho and College of Puget Sound in respective home games and each of tonight's Jeams has one more game with the other mem-.-ber of the conference, Pacific Maple announced that his prob able starting line-up would in elude Gallaher and Toolson or Medley, who sparked the Pacific win, at forwards, Joe Murray, who shoulders the assignment of guarding Frazier at center, Jim mie Robertson and lightning fast Orv Ragsdale or Don Barnick at the guard spots.

Ml T' V: .At- y North Against South as Top 'Murals Meet Parrish and Leslie junior high schools begin their annual "little civil war" series tonight at 8 p.m. when Coach Gurnee Flesh- er's southenders play host to Frank Brown's northern Pioneers in the first of a three-game se ries. Both teams are unbeaten in In tramural league play and neither has been pressed by other loop members in previous competition. Leslie recently set a new In tramural league scoring record when they downed the Yankees 95 to 18. Although such a score would indicate the superior scor ing strength of the Leslians, past records, scores and comparisons mean nothing when these two giants of intramural activities get together.

On a miserable turf, Hogan proceeded to take the course apart He chalked up a 32-33, score so unusual under ad verse conditions it prompted Jimmy Demaret of Detroit, one of the better wise-crackers among the touring pros, to re mark: "We don't say how many strokes over par any more. Its how many strokes over Hogan." The score tied the competitive course record, set by Lawson Lit tle as an amateur. Hogan, who hit 17 of the 18 greens in standard fashion, racked up seven birdies. On the four par 5 holes his tremendous shots car ried him to the edge of the green and he chipped up each time to leave himself 3-foot putts. Hogan finished the day three strokes ahead of Harry Cooper, veteran from Minneapolis and who, like the leader, was not bothered by the condition of the course. Cooper put together a 33-3568. Seven others of the starting field of 150 managed to get around the course under par fig ures. They were Horton Smith 69; stitution.

Coach Hauk announced his starting line-up would be Bill Ransom, Flying Dutch Sim mons, Don Cutler, Bud Coons and Crordy McMorris. Wally Gemmell, who opened at guard position in last night's Rook game, ' will not be eligible for high school competition until Monday. Adams' cagers, whom he be lieves are better than his 1939 Dallas quintet, held Roosevelt of Portland to a 37 to 36 win in tussle early this month. The Bulldogs use a fast break and play a running game. They have improved with each game and are expected to give the capital city preps a busy night. The two schools' Bee squads will engage in the preliminary. Bob Mentzer put to upset the dope. Brandle sustained a p a i r of badly sprained ankles last week, but is expected to see plenty of action. Earl Clark, Bud Smith and Deb McLoughlin are the Leslie offen sive mainstays, while Eugene Lowe, Howard McCaully and Jack Slater are the demons on defense. JOE MURRAY Novikoff Would Tear Down Derricks to Get in Shape By ROBERT MYERS LOS ANGELES, Jan. 22-()-Baseball's Lou Novikoff got on the scales and proved to one and all he hasn't been idle this winter. , Yes, a very busy man has been the Chicago Cub outfielder, because, amidst much groaning on the part of the scales and ob servers the needle journeyed up to 206 pounds. "I'd have fainted dead if it'd gone a notch higher," confessed witness, Coach Bill Sweeney f the Los Angeles club. "Ill get down to 195 in two weeks and 185 by the time spring training comes," promised the em barrassed Mr. Novikoff, whose best hitting poundage is around 182. There was some conflict over the exact nature of big Lm's oc cupation this winter, but it was eenerally understood he's been toiling in the nearby oil fields. It seemed probable, too, that's he's been doing heavy work in the lunch rooms and chop houses. "He must have been working overtime,' commented the ex Cub executive, now Los Angeles president, Clarence Rowland, neglecting to specify in which endeavor Lou had been labor ing the most. One thing is certain about the likeable Russian, who -was a hero last spring, a bum last. summer and a hero again last fall in some places.

The main difficulty, though, is that a couple of torn down oil derricks won't Help Novikoff, the Cubs or the man who owns the derricks. You'll remember that Lon was the "rookie of the year" until the year got started. Then his vaunted hitting power be came almost extinct, and off he went to Milwaukee. There Manager Charley Grimm applied something miraculous, be cause the Novikoff bat bloomed again, and he wound up leading American Association hitters with a .370 average. His National league figure for his 54 games stands at a blushing .241, however, so the terror of five minor leagues has yet to prove his major league worth. And before he can do that hell have to prove to his manager, Jimmy Wilson, that he can leave 20 to 25 pounds In those oil fields.

The highlight of the day was provided by an old hand at the business of coming through with the unusual Clayton Heafner of Charlotte, NC. Two years ago the ex-candy maker made the head lines by hitting his ball into a tree during the Oakland open. He did the same thing again Thursday. On the 13th fairway his ball landed in a small tree, about three feet off the ground. Heafner pulled out a putter and attempted to bat it down. In stead, the ball bounced up a few inches and stayed in the limbs. He whacked it out on the next try. and then to his credit, calm Hiiskies Top NPCC Scorers the par 4 hole.

In these games, Turner has scored 41 points, averaging 13.7 points a game, compared with 11.9 points a game scored by Oregon's Laddie Gale in 1938. Gale's total for the season was 191 points. Washington's Bobby Lindh, however, is the circuit's current scoring leader with 53 points in six games, twice the number that Turner has played.

However, some . tall shooting by Flying Dutch. Simmons and Bud Coons kept the Vikings in front of the Rooks most of the game. The Viks held a 13 to 11 lead at half time and a 21 to 18 advan tage at the three-quarter role. Using a snappy tip-off play. Cutler to Coons to Ransom, Sa lem hit the hemp tot two points five seconds into the game. A minute and a half later Reginato, last year's all-state guard from Klamath Falls, tied it up, only to have Simmons put the Viks in the lead again with a one hander from the foul line. Johnson put the Rooks into the lead, 5 to 4, with a lay-in just before the end of the first quarter. Gemmell tied it up again at the outset of the second quarter on ex-mate Bower's foul, but Ander son sneaked in for another set-up to make the score 5 to 7, then looped a long one to jump it 5 to 9. Coons sank a gift toss and a lay-in, followed closely by an other gift to Ransom to tie it up once more; then Coons pocketed a one-handed beauty followed by a lay-in by Simmons. Bower looped a.one-hander to make the score read Salem 13, Rooks 11 at half time. ' The fast set-ups and a foul shot by Simmons, plus Ransom's gift, a bucket by Gemmell and three quick field goals by Anderson ended the scoring for the third quarter. Reginato closed the gap to 21 ! to 20 as the heretofore close guarding game picked up mo mentum. Anderson tied it with a gift as the clock said four min utes to play. Finley, after being closely checked by CoonS, got set and swished a long high one from half way out to put the Rooks into a lead they never re linquished, although with 35 sec onds left Coons tanked a difficult one-hander from the side to bring the margin to two points. The tall Rooks' backboard play was dominating, although the speedy Viks sneaked in for snatches to offset too much pos session by the visitors.

We already have mentioned that the players are on some thing of a spot In that, no mat ter how legitimate their de mands, they are bound to arouse some resentment if they yelp too loudly for; higher salaries when so many of their fellow Americans are;! toting guns at $21 a month and keep. The advantage this gives the owners is apparent. If Joe Hop per sent back bis contract with the hesitant suggestion that he thinks he is worth a litle more money as he hit .297 last year and didn't field too many balls with his skull, the owner, in announc ing that Joe is a holdout, imme diately gives the public the im pression that Joe is a selfish, run down heel with blackmail and second story work as sidelines. In fact, in normal times a too ardent holdout campaign reacts unfavorably for the athlete. Joe DiMaggio was booed lustily for quite some time a few years ago after he had declined to sign un til the season ' was already a week old. But, after al the players are entitled to some consideration. Sure, they are: playing a game, but it is a business with them, and just as legitimate a business as running a hardware store or flag pole sitting. ' And they can't be blamed for trying to get as much out of it as they can while the getting Is good, as their 'careers are over about the time a doctor or den tist is Just beginning to speak of his patients instead of his pa In a way a ball player is just collecting back, wages when he asks for a raise.

He might break a leg in the first game. , 1 tiis tauung point is past per- , formance, so hi reality he will be paid for what ' he already has '; done. If Joe DiMaggio gets a snb- stantial boost this year, which he ! unquestionably; is entitled to, it will be as a reward for his serv ices of last year both as a player and as a gate attraction.
