wck SOS Sclom, Oregon. Snndcry Morning. February 8. 1911 t Soup? Regardless of whether the Western International loop opens the 1942 campaign with the usual six clubs or the four that are rumored to be all that will take off when the bell rings, the lineups of the: respective clubs will look like anything but the ones that finished up the '41 scramble. According to a list compiled by the Tacoma Tribune's Dan rn&xffe.fM J! i I- X i I ILL. X HfcJi XJ I V t'-j v v. . . . sy- CHARLIE PETERSEN th0se mentioned herewith: SALEM: Fred "Lanny" Lanifero, recalled by San Diego but now in the army. "Morty Snerd" Fallin, last reported in the parachute troops of Uncle Sam's team, and coaching a nine in his division. Charlie Petersen, holding down a foundry job in Portland, and as Pete is a pappa now, working twelve months out of a year may be a lot more appealing than the four he'd have scooting around in front of the Water's park scoreboard. Clint Cameron, ringing the ball of the time-piece at a door dis pensary in Portland. Dell Oliver and Charlie Shanz, recalled by San Diego and 'Frisco. Bob Bergstrom, recalled by Portland but last seen in New York attending the OSC-Long Island U hoop session last month. Jack Warren, pulling down $66 per weekly pay day at a Portland shipyard. TACOMA: Ray Perry and Milt Cadinha recalled by the Seals. Fay Starr and Mai Mallory recalled by Los Angeles. Jack Hanson, returned to Angels. Bill Gray, recalled by Holly wood. Bryan Stephens, recalled by Cleveland. Ray Stoeber, in the army, Marv Rickert, now with Tulsa of the Texas league. Earl Porter, Del Holmes, Morr Abbott, and Gene Kiley, working in shipyards and unlikely to report. Manager Pip Koehler, employed in shipyards, but probably available if Tacoma con tinues in circuit play. SPOKANE: Bob Kinnaman, Levi McCormack, Henry Mar tinez and Pete Hughes, sold to Portland. Joe Gerzius, sold to San TJipeo. Billv Beard, assigned to Seattle. Mike Budnick, recalled by the Sick-men. . YAKIMA: (Rumored to be unloading players before un loading franchise on league.) Ronnie Bryant, Roy Younker, Al Lien, and Bill Johnson, sold conditionally to Hollywood. Sal Madrid, sold to San Diego but enlisted in the army. Bill Reese and Howard Johnson, working in Tacoma shipyards. VANCOUVER: Bill Brenner, in Uncle Sam's air force. Paul McGinnis, in the army along with Quentin Thompson. Ernie Kershaw, in the Canadian armed forces. Tex Goldman, recalled by Seattle. Smead Jolley, working in San Francisco shipyards. Al Lingua and Cy Greenlaw, belong to the Boston Red Sox and may be moved up in that chain. WENATCHEE:. Al Libke, Earl Torgerson, Ernie "Desperate Dan" Endress and George Farrell, recalled by Seattle, and Far rell already in the army. Carl Cox and Alex Weldon, recalled by Hollywood. Beans Marionetti, recalled by Oakland. Of course some of those mentioned who are returning to mother clubs this spring may be sent back to the W. I. for more seasoning, along with other youngsters picked up as replacements for the dwindling player personnel, but the caliber of play main tained by past performers in the loop seems certain to be lowered this year with so many stalwarts gone but not forgotten. Reports have it that the Portland Pilots are in for a nice eve ning's entertainment come Tuesday night in the college hoop haven. Seems that Paul O'Toole, last year's all-state high school center, and now pivoting for the Pilots, still thinks he's an all state man even though he has graduated into faster company; and the college 'Cats didn't particularly like the way the former Columbia prep star did his deeds last Friday night when the two teams met in Portland. Appears that the points potted by Mr. O'Toole in said contest didn't bother the Maplemen nearly so much as the way Paul conducted himself on the floor. O According to a communique from the Oregon state game commission there will be open hunting seasons this year for both large and small game so far as the commission is concerned, thereby spiking all such rumors as the "entire state being closed this year. The commission indicates that it "sees no necessity for such closure, and plans to meet in June, the time specified by law, to set the hunting seasons and bag limits on game birds and animals for the current year. o Word comes from Vern Gilmore, director of athletics at the Vik Villa, that the date for the District 8 high school wrestling tournament to be held on the Salem high mats would be Satur day, February 21. Schools competing in District 8 competition will be the Oregon School for Blind, Chemawa, Silverton and Salem. Preliminaries are to start at 10 a.m. with the semi-finals and finals to be grappled off starting at 2 p.m. Final event, winners will qualify for entry in the 11th annual state high school wrestling tournament, which, incidently, for the first time in its history, will be held in Corvallis this year. The past ten tourneys have been held in Salem. This year's finals are slated for Friday and Saturday, February 27 and 28. Salem1 has copped the crown the last two years, and is one o the three teams that have "priority" on the title. Benson high and Hill Military Academy of Portland are the only other prep schools whose trophy cases are adorned by state high school wrestling championship awards.

Cougars Claw Loop Lead Over By WSC After Sweep of Series 'Injured' Gilberg Gangs Up on Foe to Put Champs Back on Top PULLMAN, Wash., Feb. 7-(i?VWashington State, western collegiate basketball champion, took top spot in the Northern division of the Pacific Coast conference Saturday night by turn ing a ding-dong battle into a near rout in the second half to beat Washington, 54 to 43. State's Cougars, who won last night by 58-52, held a 30-28 half time edge The town of Pullman yelled itself hoarse in rooting its be loved Cougars into a half-came lead, rained at the expense of the favorite rival. Washington was pacing the field when it arrived for the series. The teams picked up Saturday night where they dropped the Fri day argument, the lead changing hands eight times during the opening half after Marv Gilberg, conference scoring leader, opened the bombardment. Four times in the 20 minutes the teams were tied. After five minutes of whirlwind action State was leading, 11-10, and after 10 minutes the count was 16-15, with the Cougars still in front But five minutes later the Washington Huskies, led by Norm Dalthorp, held a 26 to 19 advantage, their widest of the game. WSC countered with eight straight points to get back In the party and the teams swapped field goals as the half closed. The pace caught Washington first, although the Huskies con tinued the battle on even terms for nine minutes. Bobby Lindh knotted the count at the period's start and Dalthorp chucked Wash ington ahead. It was tied again at 32-all and big Chuck Gilmur's hook shot gave the Huskies their last lead, at 34-33. They were all even at 39-39 when Washington suddenly lost its drive. The State subs quick ly Tolled into the lead, pouring in 11 points before Washington could score again. Six of them j were flipped by speedy Al Akins. With the score at 50-39 and four minutes left the Cougars played casually, content to protect the advantage. Gilberg led the scoring With 14 points and Dalthorp had 12 for Washington. Owen Hunt, WSC guard, followed with 10. The Huskies took 63 shots from the field and the Staters 72.

En skies Indoor Vault Mark Raised By Warmerdam MacMitchell Takes Wanamaker Mile in Millrose Games NEW YORK, Feb. 7-()-Using borrowed poles when his own failed to arrive from California, Cornelius Warmerdam raised the world indoor pole vault record to 15 feet, inch, at the Millrose games in Madison Square garden Saturday night Warmerdam entered the com petition when the other vaulters reached 12 feet and hadn't reg istered a miss when the height moved to 14 feet, 7 inches, the former world record set by Earle Meadows last spring. He previously had cleared 15 feet 12 times in outdoor competition. He wasn't even breathing hard when he cleared 14 feet, 4 inches, one inch above the Millrose record Sueo Ohe of Japan hung up in 1937. Leslie MacMitchell, who learned to run on the sidewalks of New York, won the Wana maker mile by galloping the distance in 4:11.S, four seconds shy of the meet record set by Chuck -Fenske in 1940. The New York university sen ior led all but two of the 11 laps when Walter Mehl. the former Wisconsin ace, stepped out in front MacMitchell took charge again on the final lap and at the finish had an advantage of 11 yards. Joe Rafferty, once of Fordham, was second and John Borican of Asbury Park, NJ, third as Mehl faded to fourth with Ted Culp of Xavier of New Orleans, last. MacMitchell pounded through the first quarter in 1:00.4 and was still out in front when the half was reached in 2:05.4. Mehl was still in the driver's seat at the three-quarter mark where the time was 3:10.2. Little Greg Rice was forced to put on a tremendous spurt in the final lap of the two mile run to beat out Gilbert Dodds of Boston in the meet record time of 8T:52.8 for his twenty-first straight vic tory. Dodds was in front most of the way and Rice challenged as they entered the final lap but couldn't take the advantage away from the Bostonian until nearing the stretch. Dodds was only a stride behind at the finish. Fred Wilt of Indiana university was third. Gene Venzke, former Pennsyl vania stylist, had the 1000-yard run all but won when he and Earle Mitchell of Indiana uni versity, fell. Venzke passed Mit chell on the straightaway and the two were headed for the tape, stride for stride, when both went down. Yenzke's hands and chest were over the finish line but the officials ruled he had not crossed it and awarded the race to Lou Collado of New York. The time was 2:14.3. Fordham's great one-mile team nosed out Notre Dame In the fi nal race of the college relay and turning in the fastest time of 3:21.2 for the John G. Anderson memorial trophy.

Keizer, a 27-year-old product of the Ozark country which sent many a star into action on the na tion's links, toured the Phoenix Country club course in 66 blows, five under par, to go with his first round 68 for a total score of 134. Leaving- a toornament-tired bnt plucky Ben Horan to fade into the rear, seven strokes back, Keiser goes into tomor row's 36-hole final trind two strokes ahead of a trio that in cludes: ' Amateur Johnny Dawson of Hollywood, winner of the $5000 Bing Crosby tournament last week over much the same field of pros; Lanky Lloyd Manrrua of Chicago and Los Angeles, the first round pace setter, , and Chandler Harper, four-time Virginia state open champion bat a newcomer to major tour nament renown.
