Weekend wssh:
If you're one who can't so the deep tea fishing because of sea
sickness, have a try at some of those new pill prescribed; by the
medicos. Lota of folks tell us they're the McCoy and that your;itom
ach stays anchored after a doseage. A few other! insist , the pills
amount to Just that much more
food for the fish . . . Note to A. H.
Craven of Monmouth: We've no
Idea Just how old was that 72
pound salmon caught in Canada
by one Mrs. Lionel Pa tton recent-
ly. but will refer your letter , to
Don Harger our fact-finding out
doorsman. We'd like to know the
answer to. that one too' . . The
interest ini Oregon State's new-deal
football team i decidedly up, as
. a talk .with Beaver Athletic Info
' Director Jrwin tlarris emphasizes.
Irwin says the demand for ducats
- for the Montana, WSC, California
and Michigan Slate games is in
deed heavy, which is always a
good indication this early. The
Beavers play Montana and WSC
at Corvallis and California and
Michigan State at Portland. At
4he rate the calls for tickets are
now coming in, Harris figures both
Portland tilts will be sellouts. He
He also reminds, naturally, that
ducats can be had by applying to AL SIMPSON j '
either Athletic Director Spec Keene or Assistant tori Baker, MU
' building. Corvallis ... M6st publicity concerning th Oregon prepperi
expected to have big seasons as collegians this fall has been handed
: to ex-Medford Black Tornado lads Bob Watson and Darrell Riggs, now
at UCLA, and to former Grant high whiz Pat Duff, now at USC. Prac-
tically overlooked in comparison is Earl SteUe, Jim? Aiken's top hope
as successor to Norm Van Brocklin as Oregon's T-formatlon quarter
back. Stelle prepped at Medford also, right along with Watson and
Riggs. In fact he was the No. 2 quarterback on the Tornado teams
under Coach Al Simpson, and passing the pigskin wasn't his main
forte. Stelle has since learned to pitch the vat perhaps not as
expertly as Van Broklin, but effectively enoughs to warrant the
great hope Aiken has in him for the upcoming season.
Speaking of .Simpson, be feels nothing bat food aboat the
L prospects of his season at Southern Oregon. Doft Campbell, the
-former .Oregon Stater who couldn't see eye to eye With Lon Stiner
and transferred to Ashland, Is mw eligible and Simpson predicts
the little scat back will be another Charley D'AOtremont and Chock
Jandrean all in one piece . . . I I I
Committee Alone Can Handle it Appropriately j
There will be no mass crusade to Portland Wednesday to talk sale
with Bill Mulligan, for obvious reasons. The committee assigned by
the save-the-Senators movement to buzz with Mulligan on the possible
- purchase of the Solons unanimously agreed that any mob converging
on the general manager's office might louse up the whole deal. The
' " committee has been directed only to find out the pr&e tag on the local
holdings and just how a deal for them might be made. The men feel
that they can accomplish this easier by meeting With? Mulligan private
ly. i : i r -
;s1 v , The meetins? definitely has been
If necessary, the results of same will be delivered by the committee
men during another mass meeting here shortly after ... f
Perhaps Spokane's red-headed Jack Parks Isn't the red hot
major league prospect after all. We've .listened to three topnotch
scouts deliver on Parks (all three wish identity be. kept mum) and
they Insist Parks', throwing Is poor and that he doesn't have a
, "quick" and "sore" pair of hands. At the sam time the! Ivory
hunters add that he's - big enough, young enettgh, f sst enough
and powerful enough. But he's also gotta be ? a good receiver -with
a good as well as accurate arm. I f ;
To make matters worse, for Parks at least, the scouts watched him
v perform for almost a week after he got married; As it would happen,
that week was Parks' worst of the season . . . I j
, Glamorized Wagner Still Vp to Old Trlcki
Guess who was mixed up in this: ?
"One fan was knifed and at least two others tajered In th
: V free-for-all which followed the wrestling decision at the Los
Angeles Olympic auditorium last night. Police said the fight
started after one grappler bad tossed the other oat of the ring and
V was awarded the decision. Angry fans then Jumped Into the ring
and the general fight spread from the ring into the aisles and seats,
and finally outside the building. Auditorium f police, aided by
cores of reinforcements from the riot squad, restored order and
emptied the building." , ;
. ", Yep, you guessed right the first time.' Our Gorgeous George was
mack in the middle of that one and it was he who tossed the other
gladiator from the ring to start the brawl. The guy hasn't fchanged
a bit He started out inciting similar riots in our , village armory not
too many years ago when he was just plain George Wagner, and could
mooch a gas ration stamp from a member of the ration board . j .
Who will and whs won't be called In by the Portlands from
the Senators after Labor Day, and who ean be egpected back here,
again next year. If there la a next year? Your guess is as good as
anyone's so have at It Bill Burgher, Cal Mclrvin. Martyl Krug.
Art Pennington and Bud Peterson are on option from theiBevos
and are sure to be recalled. Whether they get to play Is question
able, as the Portlands are still after a finish in the first division.
The others are under Salem contracts arid jfrill be involved in
the sale discussion with Boss Mulligan, if there Is a chance for
local enthusisasts to purchase the Senators part of the Bevo .holdings.

By The Associated Press
Pacific Coast Conference schools launched their 1949 grid prac

turnout with 87 candidates. Generally the first-day squads "Were
smaller than a year ago.
Af Eugene Bill Fell, transfer
from Compton, Calif., junior col

halback, turned up here today as
the university of Oregon opened
practice. FelL a track star, was
one of the 54 candidates who took
part in the scrimmage session
Coach Jim Aiken always orders
,'for opening day.
Also on hand were 10 regulars
from last, year, 19 other letter
men, 9 players from last year's
frosh squad and 6 junior college
transfers.
Fifty-five Oregon state players
ran through their first workout
at Corvallis. ,
Coach La Verne "Kip" Taylor
sent the athletes through a varied
workout including chalk talks, sig
nal drills and a session in the tack
ling pits. Among those turning
out were 24 lettermen.
Coach Howie Odell sent a '61-
man squad through dumming
scrimmage and passing drills at
the University of Washington
with the emphasis on speed.
Only 16 lettermen are back to
form the nucleus of the 1949
Husky team.
Sixty members of the Washing
ton State college football skuad
ran the "Gridders Mile" just to

'nil Sarboe, Cougar coach, sent
his fully suited squad spinning
around the track under a broiling
sun.
Lynn Waldorf, coach of last

had to find replacements for: Jack
Jensen, last year's all Pacific full

last year decided to go into navy
civilian work.
Coach Marchie Schwartz of
Stanford university had several
pleasant surprises as practice
opened with 66 men out. The
first was the unannounced appear

injury. Schwartz also had the
pleasure of greeting seven top
notch junior college transfers.
The Southern California Tro
Jans, rated high in the Pacific
coast conference, turned out 82
strong.
With 25 lettermen returning,
Jeff Cravath had no trouble lin
ing up an all-veteran first string
for the photogs.
The men of Troy, as usual, are
counting on depth this year. UCLA
grid training opened in somewhat
gloomy fashion as Coach Red San

player. The coach, making his de

that Les Steiner, three letter right
