Bear Mountain, N.Y., the training camp for Leo Durocher's varsity it
self. May be only for a spell until the Brooks route him off to a farm

spend all the training period with
the Dodgers before being shipped .
oil, the prep whiz can t neip dui
learn plenty by just watching the
oldsters . . . Tony Fraiola, the Wil
lamette athletic man, up and
around again after that operation
for a serious case of stomach ul
cers, and telling that Marine Lt.
Teddy Ogdahl the halfback ram
bler is a member of that now fa
mous 5th division which helped in
. the taking of Iwo. Ogdahl and
Marines Buddy Reynolds and An
dy Rogers, all easily remembered
Bearcat touchdowners, are said to
, have "run across' each other in
the Pacific not too long ago . . .
. And here's abreak for Clint Cam
eron, the eiVU and Western In
ternational JtAllgamer who took to
catching so lllell prior to going into the navy. Bill Conroy, late of the
Boston Red Jox and Oakland Oaks' catching departments, has taken
- over the skipjpership of the San Diego Naval Training Center nine this
season, and is working with Clint on all the tricks of the backstopping
trade Incidentally, the SDNTS has already started its 1945 season.
Could happen "only in California -and Florida . . .'To basketball:
Here's .something for state tourney followers to mull. Oregon City
Coach Dan Jones, in scouting the recent district 9-10 tourney at Hills
boro says Bob Amacher of the Hillsboro champs is a wee 6-foot 6-inch-er
at center and quite a pivoteer at that. Danl shouldn's talk if his
Pioneers make it they'll display one Len Rinearson at center, a 6-foot
5-incher. . , .
Lesser Lights to Possibly Shine Again
. It's early yet and they've not made the final hump, but this year's
tourney team crop might even outdo last year's as lesser lights who
have made good. A year ago while such perennial tourney teams as
Salem, Astoria, Baker, Medford and
such westing entries as Ashland, Bend, Springfield and St. Helens bat
tled it cut But look what could happen this year. A Hood River win
over BfJcer in the districts 1-2 finals means the first visit by the Blue
uragon.'j in years n years. - same
, goes for Prineville if she dumps
Medford in the 3-4 finals. Like
wise Myrtle Point if she had upset
Eugene in 5-6 (PJS. She didn't.)
The .7-8 representative will be ei-
ther Lebanon or Newberg, both
smallies as "far a?" state tourney
chasing goes. 'Ditto Hillsboro, -already
assured a berth. And-Ver-nia
of 13-14 is in the same class.
If Woodburn should topple Ore
gon City in the 11-12 finals, add
one more. . !
' Only Baker', Medford, Eugene,
Oregon City and Washington have
in the past rated on the grade A
side, but right now only Wash
ington and .Eugene art certain of
the 3-day. stay, expenses paid in
our village text week. "
All of which adds up to nothing
as far as tie customers are con
cerned. , Last year's field was ac
tually one jof the most imattrac
tive .in hisjory. Yet . the tourna
ment was cjne of. the most closely,
fought in the same history. .
Duck Defense Reason
AW 1 of IO Victory
Beaver Skipper Slats Gill, now
looking fooward to next season,
, says allcridit should be due the
4 defense tossed at his OCS's by
. Oregon Saturday night as one big
' reason wh the Webfoot victory.
Slats admits it was the best de
'. fense Oregbn threw at him in all
four .gamed and, that it" disrupted
much, of thje Beaver scoring plans.
. v. - Speaking of coaches, you
should've seen ' Woodburn's Jiggs
Burnett ad Oregon City's . Dan
Jones jockeying for the time-and-place
advantages re" their current
districts 11-12 hoop playoff. Un-
, able, to. agj-ee while encircled by

ers, including' Salem High Princi
pal Harry' Johnson, Burnett and
Jones finajly hied off to a neutral
corner alone. They argued 25 min
utes before Jones finally conceded
to play the opener Wednesday in
stead of Tuesday ... As for ChairH
man Johhson of the district 11
committeef he's fed up with such
, as. the ( ultta-extensive double-elim
inatioiiIayoff system and next
year will Advocate district play on
a percentage oasis. In other words

Oregon City Tonight
WOODBURN,: March ,-7-(Spe;
cial)-Oregon City's favored and;
racing Pioneers took a long step
toward a berth in the state bas-
ketball tourney - here tonight by
caging out a 49-41 victory ove
the Woodburn Bulldogs in the!
opening clash of their districts llf
12: payoff series;" The game was a
were-off-to-a-fire affair all th
way with , Coach Jiggs Burnett!
Blue Bulldogs, actually fading in
only the last minute of play.
Game No. 2 of the series will be
battled; off at Oregon City tomor
row night, and;thethird tussle, if
necessary, goes- jtof neutral Mil
waukie's speedway v Friday night
Another nod for Coach Dan Jones
outfit tomorrow tickets it for the
blue ribbon classTcas Salem for
the ninth consecutive year." '
But the Bulldogs, who went
down with all flags flying tonight
after giving the feather-footedJPf-oheers
one whale of a scrap, aren't
conceding it yet. Only a basket-
battering last minute rush cave ft
to the visitors-'tonight after the
Bulldogs" had -climbed to a mere
41-38 deficit with slightly more
than : minutello so. Oregon City
had lepl 21-12 at the half and gali
loped jit to 27-14 in the third
frame before the.Bulldogs finally
clicked. Center Bill Austin, For
ward Hal McKee and Reserve Le
Roy Copeland Were the big guns in
the drive, closing the gap to 34-28
at the end of jthe third period.
Bob Misleyi,; sharpshooting for
ward for the Pioneers, was tooted
out on fouls midway through that
third frame and it seemed to af
fect both , quints. While the OC
quint l; was attempting to regain
smae tne tJuiiaogs. came near
catching up, a corner basket by
McKee bringing the . Bulldogs to
withiij three ppihts at 34-37. Auji
tin and Len Rinearson traded hits
and then Copeland and Jim Son
deren swapped a. pair as the bat
tle grew redl hot' But just Is
suddenly as it aU started In the
third canto, with slightly mole
than it minute left in the fourth,
the Pioneer fast breaks netted
three j quick baskets while' Wood
burn was being blanked, all appljr
ing the finishing touch. ' .? I-
Neither ball club could hit In
the first quarter, the period end
ing 6-6. ' Oregon City shook loose
the second while Woodburn, play
ing sloppy ball by passing badly
and shooting wildly, dropped back.
With 1 1:45 left in the first half lit
was 21-9 for i Oregon City. Then
little McKee, Woodburn's whiz to
night pulled his mates out of lit
with two buckets. I?
McKeen was hieh scorer for the
Bulldogs with 13 while Austin wis
next ! with 12;; Charley Sauvain,
usually a top man for the Bulldogs,
was held to a single field goal and
five free tosses for seven all tojd.
He was definitely not "on" and
missed numerous easy shots, for
the Pioneers it was 6-foot 4-incher
Rinearson with 14 and Misley with
13. v ! g
' Woodburn batted .300 with At
tempts at the hoop from the field
and pregon City had a .313 night
taking 67 shots to, Woodburn's; 50
and jhitting 21 field goals to J5.
Emil Piluso and Chappie King, s
signed states meet tasks, worked
the battle. A full house saw if as
one of the faitest scraps seen hre
