We sat out a Portland-Seattle ball game the other night with MaDon, now back in Molalla working out the summer until school takes up in Pendleton again next f all, and - v.-.,-.- through him learned that the three Molalla prizes Earl Hamp ton, Bud Larsen and Don Hilton who did a year; at Willamette be fore being called into the service, are definitely planning on return-, ing to WU for further education after the wor. All three are sopho mores when they came back.

Also a I baseball and basketball prospect t first cabin. Earl was after his navy air corps wings out wasnea ouf Fallon. But he was transferred to Bainbridge training station, became : a chief specitlist and is now training "boots" in San Diego.

"As 1 get the Statesman regularly,'' writes Seaman 1c Bob Warren, the former Viking athlete now stationed at. Jacksonville naval air station in Florida, "I noted a piece you wrote some tune ago about Lou Nova. He fought a newcomer Bill Peterson here re cently, and although winning a Promoter Nate Lewis (ask Packy McFarland about him) thinks so much of this Peterson that he bought his contract Hs is to fight Gunnar Barlund here and Lee Savold has already signed to take on the winner. All of -which proves you say. He's really on the way is also. ' J '."' - "Anyway, yours truly likes here in Jacksonville." Searine out Roberts, the Lewis is a 63-year-oldster of the ancient school and has traveled almost all over the world with fighters.
