BETHEL PARK TO BE REVAMPED Members of the
' Emerald Empire Baseball Club's building committee, con
ferring with Joe Zeigler of the Portland Beavers, is
shown here studying plans for reconstruction of Bethel
Park, home of the new Class B Northwest League club.
Shown at the ball park, left to rightare President Frank
Graham, General Manager Dick Richards, Ziegler, Busi
ness Manager Chuck Shulda, Jim Huser, chairman of the
committee, and Nat Giustina, member of the executive
committee. Design for the remodeling has been prepared
by Louis F. Bonson, calling for an increase of 300 seats
to the burned-out center section, an additional set of box
seats in front of the present boxes, new concession facili
ties and rest rooms. All of the old stands, destroyed by
fire last summer, have been cleared and construction is
scheduled to start Feb. 1. Other improvements will in
clude an electric scoreboard and new radio and press
facilities. In the meantime Bobby Doerr, member of the
executive committee in charge of field improvement and
the juvenile coaching program, is planning to start work
on the playing field as soon as weather conditions permit.

Meetings Monday; .
Friel, Cougars Guests
Coach Jack Friel and mem
bers of the Washington State var
sity basketball i team will be
guests of the Oregon Club Mon
day when the downtown sports
group resumes its regular Mon
day noon luncheons at the Eu
gene Hotel. Friel's Cougars, fol
lowing a series against OSC over
the weekend, will play Oregon at
McArthur Court Monday and
Tuesday nights. -Coach
Bill Borcher and mem
bers of the Oregon varsity will
also be on hand.
President Ted Reed has an
nounced that the Oregon Club
plans to sponsor a clinic at Mc
Arthur Court, January 19,
starting at 7:30 p.m., with Bor
cher and members of the varsity
squad demonstrating various
forms of offensive and defen
sive maneuvers as well as point
ing out the key rules of the
game. A short scrimmage ses
sion, with accredited officials,
will be held, followed by a ques-tion-and-answer
period handled
by Borcher. .,
Best-Ball Tourney In
Second Round at ECC
Second-round matches in the
second annual winter ' best-ball
golf tournament are due to be
completed by Sunday night,
along with first-round matches
in the consolation flight. No fa
vorites have been established,
with the defending championship
team, Norm Hampton-George
Pratt, not entered.
the statistics that season were Bill Elder, freshman and 19; Don
Fulgham, freshman and 17; Les Wright, freshman and 19; Marion
Huff, the only senior and 22; James Lee, freshman and 18; Floyd
Fredrickson, freshman and 17; Chuck Butler, freshman and 19;
Dwight Zulauf , freshman and 17, and Spike Corderio, freshman
and who eventually became a football backfield star at St. Mary's
College. ...
Oregon played a back-breaking schedule of 43 games that
season (38-13), plus a half-baked preseason jamboree at Astoria.
. . . The Webfoots also made an invasion of British Columbia
and the Webfoots saw lots of country. . . . Wilkins was one of
the nation's leading scorers with 544 points and at Kansas City
scored 44 points in two games, one more than Bob Kurland, the
AU-American center who led Oklahoma A & M to the National
Championship. - . . Oregon gave two tremendous performances
at the Kansas City Auditorium, losing 79-76 to Arkansas after
being hopelessly outclassed in the first half and then defeating
a good Utah quintet 69-66 for the mythical Far West NCAA
championship. ...
Others who made the trip were Athletic Manager Anse Cornell,
Student Manager Nick Weddle, and this, writer. . . . That was
a strange sports year and we doubled (or tripled) as Register
Guard sports editor, Oregon publicity man and a member of the
physical education (ASTP) staff under Dean Leighton. . . . Many
of the other squad members who did not make the Kansas City
trip will attend the banquet and post-game celebration, plus
George Guldager, team physician; George Tharp, McArthur Court
custodian, and Art McClarney, Portland U coach and at that
time one of the referees at Kansas City. .
There have been other title teams at Oregon, but the only
other one to play in the NCAA was the 1939 quintet that won
the National Championship.
MAIL-A-BUCK
if Local baseball fans who have been inquiring about
season tickets for the Emerald Empire Northwest League
Club will soon have the opportunity to make purchases at a
price of about S12.50. . . . Surprising how the announcement of
the signing of Cliff Dapper as manager has stimulated interest. . .
We have also been asked about the personnel signed to date
a bunch of guys named "Joe." . . . You fellows must remember
that Mickey Mantles and Joe Gordons don't step right out of
the sandlots and off the college diamonds to play in the Majors.'
. . . The long-range program planned by the local organization
calls for extensive juvenile baseball, not entirely Uie use of
Bethel Park, but stimulating baseball for the kids throughout
the area by a series of clinics headed by Bobby Doerr, former
Boston Red Sox secondbaseman. ...
Al Lightner, Salem Statesman sports editor, likes the name,
Emeralds, but there is a contest now in progress to have fans
select a name with the deadline for entries Jan. 15. . . . Light
ner, by the way, reports that Mel Krause might like to sign with
the local club, having obtained his release in January. . . . Man-,
ager Hugh Luby of the Salem Senators would like to have him
back, but Salem used him mostly as an outfielder. ... He is the
best young thirdbaseman we've ever seen and remember, he
can be a "fireman" on the mound, too. ...
Hub Kittle, former Klamath Falls manager, will pilot the
Yakima Bears in the Northwest League this season, after a term
at Tcrre Haute in the Three-I. . . . That means the local man
agement will have to add to its equipment cost a spittoon for '
the tobacco-chewing Kittle's dressingroom. ...
Leading pitcher in the Mexican PCL is Nick Genesta, the.
former Spanish-speaking pitcher for the Eugene Larks who has
a 20 record for the Navojoa club. . , . Luke Easter is hitting
.365 for third place in the same league, followed by Joe Brovia
at .362. . . . Howard Fox has been released from the Caracas
club of the Venezuela League because of arm trouble. ... He is .
still on the Baltimore roster
MAIL-A-BUCK
A- Don't blame Len Casanova for the questionable West
substituting in the Shrine game. He was on the phones in
the press box. . . . But as Prescott Sullivan of the San Francisco
Examiner said, "The West Shrine coaches ought to be thankful
that they didn't have Tony Morabito to deal with. The owner of
the 49ers would fire 'em in a minute for what they did. New
Year's Day."
Cas, by the way, was introduced at the pre-gamc luncheon
as the man who had booted the longest punt in. the East-West
series. . , . Cas never played in the game, but he does hold the
record for the longest kick in Kezar Stadium. In 1924 against
St. Mary's, standing three yards behind his goal line, he kicked
to the Gaels' one-yard line. . .'. ,
Duke Washington, WSC fullback, is the first Negro in Cougar
history to be named honorary captain. . . . Bob Garrison, the
great Idaho guard who transferred to Misissippi Southern, was
reported ineligible but is back in school. . . . Bob had attended
several schools. . . . The report also says that Chuck Finley
called Jack Friel of WSC and asked if he would be interested in
a 6-9 post man. Jack asked what was wrong with the boy and
Finley replied that colored boys do not compete in Mississippi
Southern. ...
Chet Noc scored nine points for the Ada (Tex.) Oilers in a
96-85 win over Buchan Bakers of Seattle in a recent game in
Houston. Ed Tucker, the ex-Stanford ace, scored 45, Ed Halberg
10 and Ken Wegner two for the losers. ...
'Hal Dunham (Oregon) was quarterback and Wayne Johnson
(Oregon), and John Thomas (OSC) were ends for the Air Force
All-Stars who beat the Marine All-Stars 21-14 in a New Year's
Day football game in Tokyo.
