THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND.lDR'EGbNFRiDAY. JAN. 26, 1945 PAGE TWO Athletic Leaders Battling Bettors; Headway Shown By Walter Byers lUnited PreM SUIf Corraipomlent) Chicago, Jan. 26 Ui Athletic directors of Big Ten schools and other leading mldwestern univer sities are waging a winning war against gambling syndicates that nave turnca io coiienmic oyui " since the U. S. ban on norse rac ing ' A United Press survey showed today that bookies are experienc ing ntnnpwall oimosition on the collegiate front from midwest uni versities and several newspapers which have combined to cut off gamblers from "tip" sources. Some Firms Quit Unable to get information to make up their prediction sheets, many betting syndicates have folded, while others have been forced to drastically curtail their operations. ' Intent on blocking all organized gamblers' entrance into the col legiate sports field, athletic direc tors have issued Instructions to their coaches, university officials and players n-o-t to give any in formation to anonymous callers. There is also a standing rule at these schools to throw into the waste basket any letter apparent ly from a betting house asking for "dope." Sheets Unanswered "I never answer any informa tion sheets sent here," said K. L. (Tug) Wilson, Northwestern uni versity athletic director and secretary-treasurer of the N.C.A.A. "They go Into the waste basket and; I've Instructed our publicity department, coaches arid players not to answer any calls for infor mation." The report was the same from athletic directors L. W. St. John, Ohio State; Z. G. Clevenger, In diana; Conrad Jennings, Mar quette; Harry Stuhldreher, Wis consin; George Vecncker, Iowa State, and so on down the line. . The effect has been good, espe cially In local areas. Cindered Paths Quit By Dodds Los Angeles; Jan. 26 tUtGll Dodds, fleet footed track star, hung up his spiked shoes and-to-day prepared to go "wherever the Lord leads" as a minister r.,t Although he said he was through with competitive sports, Dodds said he would keep run ning for his health. In a brief workout at the Uni versity of Southern California's Bovard field yesterday he toured a quarter-mile in 51.5 seconds after a 10-minute warmup. "I expect to take workouts a .couple of times a week," he said. "I want to keep my body strong and healthy so I can serve more efficiently." After a brief southern Cali fornia preaching tour, Dodds will go to Texas where he will remain until Feb. 14 and then go to the state of Washington to await his preaching call. Dodds who completed his theo logical studies at the Gordon col lege of Theology ended his track career by winning a two-mile run in Boston last Saturday.

Now York, Jan. 26 u-When the major league owners meet In New York a week from tomorrow they will announce the continua tion of plans to play the 1943 baseball season. The meeting will n-o-t be con fronted with the possibility of closing the parks. No such crisis exists as yet, we learn irom an authoritative source. Instead, the heads of key agencies in the capi tal urge that - preparations for opening be, continued. According to our authoritative informant, these Washington' brass hats believe that baseball not only should be played during' the '45 season, But that it c a n bo played; and that only an unex pected emergency such as a grave, reversal In the European war theatercould cause a black out- of the national pastime. t Jloe.pXflcial opinion, as re layed W'us, is that the re-examinations and unjust reviews of 4-F's and dischargees will take' away enough seasoned perform ers to lower the standard of play In the majors and upper minors, but will not threaten the game's existence. A sufficient number of 4-F's and dischargees should be lett to form the nucleus of teams, since the physical standards for fighting men have not been low ered and there is no Increased demand for men In limited service. With reference to impending work-or-fight legislation, the Washington advice Is: Cross that bridge when you come to it. Because of this oalnnixlle at titude among key men in Wash ington, the chief business of the major league meeting on Feb. 3 will n-o-t concern opening or clos ing of the parks. Instead it will concern the election' of a commis sioner to succeed tho late Kene saw Landis. , Most major league owners agree that a commissioner should be named as soon as posible. The stigma cast upon professional ath letes by the unjust and discrimina tory directive calling for, war de partment reviews of cases in which 4-F and discharged ath letes are rejected in their re-ex amination has booted the moguls out or tneir lethargy, -: : They realize that such a direc tive never would have been is sued if a commissioner had gone to Washington and explained the 4-F situation to the right parties, presenting facts on cases that w e r e questioned ' or? criticized. They - realize also that a proper commissioner,- doing liaison jvorli between the game and the agency neaas, might prevent future kick-ings-around whenever Washington- biggies' get a bit panicky. They realize, too, that current bickerings between members of baseball's temporary advisory commission presage lack of uni- nea control. However, whether the owners can agree now upon the person wno snail Decome -commissioner Is a dish of another flavor. Ford Frick, president of the NaHonal league, has been most prominent ly mentioned as candidate for the job. But it is uncertain if he com mands sufficient votes to get it, If Frick is not elected, It is doubt ful that the Feb. 3 meeting will agree upon anyone else. Oreqon, Huskies Battle Tonight' Eugene, Ore., Jan. 26 ir Out to avenge four defeats at the hands of the Huskies last year, the University of Oregon Wehfeet will meet the University of Wash ington tonight In McArthur court here In the first of a two-game series. Oregon at present leader of the northern division race at least will have to win one of the games to keep its first-place posi tion. The Huskies have had plenty of warning about the basket-making abilities of Forward Dick Wil kins of Oregon and they probably will build their defense around plans to stop him. On the Huskies' side. Forwards Carnovale and Guard Jorgeasrn are the main threats, since both arcexcellent defensively and are also scoring threats. Bears Head North To Face Indians Eleven Bend high -basketball players, the same group which completed a successful Invasion of Lake and Harney counties last week, headed north this morning for The Dalles, where tho Bears and the Indians will tangle In a two-game series.
