Lloyd Merk, member of the SHS class of '44 and who was killed in action in Normandy July 28 after .having injured the previous day, was a victim of circumstances in the City Intramural basketball league several years ago when he was playing for Gurnee ilesher's Leslie hoopsters. Merk had shown a . ; great deal of ability through the season while spearheading the Missionaries. Came the season's end and lime for the annual All Star selections. Coach Frank Brown of Parrish (now head hoop man at SHS) was high in his praises for Merk and insisted he be placed on one of the star teams. But Frank, coach of the cross town Pioneers,' had fouled him self up -in Identifying Merk from Bobby Zeller. Consequently, when the placements were made it was Zeller and not Merk who was cho sen, i Nothing was - said and the matter was dropped. Now, with Merk a victim of the war, we thought we'd let it be known I . " . No mistaken Identity here, : how ever. Three - fourths of "Jiggs Burnett's Woodburn high back- field this fall is made up of Wood burn Post 48 American Legion junior baseballers, and the trio might down combination in the Duration league. Al "Superman" Zuber, who played third base during the summer and rah wild in the Duration last fall, is the present left half. Big Babe Reed, who handled the back stopping chores, now fullbacks. And Harold McKee, the shortstop, transferred over from Hubbard high, and plays quarterback. Now if Burnett only had, Dick Twenge, the outfielder who was such a ter rific mail carrier at Newberg high last fall I 11 Sports Fan? Many Types of Same j What makes for a sports fan, you ask? Noah Webster has no pon-! derous definition for the animal, although he goes to lengths exem- j plifying "sport", "sporting", .. "sportive", etc Noah is satisfied that a "sport fan" Is: A bon vivant interested in sports chiefly for the gambling opportunities presented hence, a gambler , . . To which gents like Kenesaw Mountain Landis, Elmer Layden, Judge W. G. Bramham, et aL immediately turn fie on the dictionarist 1 Picking up. where Noah left off, a sports fan is divided Into dis tinct, groups. Group A buggies or goofs, B not so buggy or goofy, C average citizen, D too busy to be average citizen, E Individualist, F "so what" attitudist and Z pest 1 Elaborating on each, group A holds the guys n gals who are up to snuff on everything. They catch all the radio ports casts, dive for the sports pages even before the funnies, know full well that the Tigers, Browns and Yanks are having one helluva battle in the American league, know itll be the first pennant ever for the Browns if they win out know that Babe Ruth isn't a candy bar and that he hit 60 homers in 1927 for the all-time major league high, know that the "Four - Horsemen" of Notre Dame weren't a quartet of hot bangtail jockeys, know that the "T" formation Isn't the afternoon party gals lined up for the drinks and that a one-two punch isn't a spiked lemonade. They're a walking edition of a sports encyclopedia, mildly. Gradually Tapers to Type 'Z9 Group B Isn't quite so whacky members turn to the funny pages first but can offer argumentative bits in any hot stove or corner session.-Group C consists of the average patron who glimpses at the sports page through habit goes to most all local games be they football, basketball or baseball and isn't immune to letting the umpire know what a first-class louse he is. Group D would step up a notch if mem bers Iweren't always "too busy to go, darn it? " Group E boasts the individualists, the journeymen who first fly into the page to find their own names in front of that bowling score or touchdown before resorting to casual reading. Harmless and legion in number. Group F involves Jhe "so what" attitudists don't care if Yanks win or lose the pennant or if Waldo Zilch of the hometown team is a sure-fire Ail-American this fait Almost the direct, opposite of Group A, the F clan often bears members who think the Washington Redskins are actually Injuns tee-peeing at the nation's capital. Group Z bears those whom we could do well without They go, to the season al extravaganzas when coaxed and then proceed to ask 782 questions per hou? ranging from "who's playing?" to "now what'd hevdo that fer?

Woodburn Joe Fails to Gain I Coast Crown PORTLAND, Ore, Sept 23-( CpL Costello Cruz, 168, Los An geles, won on a technical knock out in the 8th round over Joe Kahut, Woodburn, 175, tonight In a match that was billed for the Pacific coast i light heavyweight tifle. The scheduled 15-rounder was stopped midway in the 8th after the Mexican opened a vi cious two-handed head attack that laid Kahut's forehead wide open Over his left eye. ? Cruz had a wide margin In points when the fight was stop ped. The scoe Card showed three rounds for Cruz, three even and one for Kahut The soldier piled up his points by a shifting left and right jabbing attack. The Woodburn farm lad, appar ently baffled by Cruz's lightning jabs, spent most of the time deep in a crouch, head covered, lashing out 'only occasionally with hay' makers. His best round; was the 7th when he staggered Cruz with three hard lefts to the body.1 Cruz kept out of reach the remainder of the round. 1 ViksEyelCF, o Emerging from Friday night's 20418 victory: over Lincoln ' high of j Portland sans serious injury to any player, Salem high's Vik ings are ready to settle down to another week's practice, this time in -preparation for the tilt with Klamath Falls on Sweetiand field Friday. .-- ' ; i; . ; . i . :'-.; Por the Viks, this Friday's fra- cas will offer a chance for them to gain their third : consecutive vic tory, the Salem touchd owners ha ving copped an 18-6 triumph over Milwaukie in their Initial grid en counter i of the current pigskin season.

Coach Duke Trotter's troupe, try as it did, was plainly and simply baffled all the way. ' Three times In the first quarter, twice In the second twice more In the third and fouri times. In the fourth the bruising biggies who re fused to make a single, mistake all day despite it being their opener struck down the Navycats, around 'em, through 'em, over 'em and with badly backfired .passes, the Huskies seemed to score almost and monotonously at will.
