On the team at present are Ken Acheson, Gerald Walling, Ed McDonald, Norman Carter, Rod Lento, Ernest Loy, Gordon Hansen and Eddie Blackshear. Johannson Ruled Out of Olympics WASlll.vnTON (UP) Sven Johansson, Alaskan. skier formerly of Astoria. Ore., has been ruled in eligible tor the 1!.")6 U.S. Olympic cross-country ski team because of an Immigration law provision. Johansson, -who came to the United States from his native Sweden in 1950, applied for U.S. citizenship at Anchorage last Dec. 19. A 30-day waiting period re quired by the MeCaiTan - Walter Act slowed his naturalization, how ever. Tie skier placed second in Olym pic ski team trials held at Spout Springs, Ore., last week, but he could not be listed on the team rosier until he obtained his citizen ship. The U.S. ski learn was due to leave for Italy Jan. 16 to take part in the winter games hum Jan. 26 through Feb. 5. Johansson would not he eligible for the team until Feb. 2. when his 30-day waiting period had expired.

Cleveland Will Have Strong Entry for '56 Rookie Title y OSCAIC FRAI.KV United Prewt Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP) -The Cleve land Indians took rookie of the year honors with a strikeout whiz named Herb Score and the chatter around the hot stove league today is that they'll be up there in the 1956 freshman race again3t strong bids by Chicago and Washington The Indians have high hopes for another pitcher and a blasting out fielder, but the White Sox will have three strong contenders for rookie honors and the Senators are tout ing a young outfielder who hits big. Practically every other club in the league looks to be strength ened by young blood but the In dians, White Sox and Senators may have the prize packages. Home-Court Play Thought Key in Race EUGENE (UP) Coach Bill Borcher of me University of Ore gon basketball team predicted to day that the home-court advantage! would piny a mnior role In the forthcoming Pncitic Coast Confer ence basketball season. He cited figures whiii showed that so far this season PCC teams have won 24 and lost 10 games played on their home courts. In games on the opponent's, home .turt the same teams have won only three and lost 25. On neutral courts, which include pre - season tournament games, I'LL teams have won 10 out o! 17 contests. "It's hard to pin down the causei of the problem," Borcher said But it pmlwihly can be charged off to psychological reasons and unfamiliarity with the courts dur ing the non-confercnoe road games California is the only team to have a perfect road record to date among conference teams, winning from Arizona and Arizona State in its only road game. UCLA is the only oliher road winner, taking a decision from St. Johns of Brook lyn. These figuros do not include tourney games against opponents on neutral courts. Split Decision Taken by Fullmer CLEVELAND. Ohio (UP) The1 one judge who voted against him may cost you or Gene Fullmer of West Jordan, Utah, a chance for n re-match with Eduardo Laussej of Argentina j While Fullmer seemed to bo iintvuiK hi n nruising ii-rounn victory Wednesday night over RtK'ky Cnstellani, Judce Charlie stellanl at .Hidge had ble too, saw ihe Mormon on top bv a OR 91 spread. The winner of the bout w:is sup. nosed to get a shot al Lnusse, ihe cnwd-plrasing Argentine slusgrr wio k-ws after his 3trd straight victory Friday night. Because Fullmer gained only a sp'M ver dict, and because he brought out the tiger" in Castcllani in a rousing finish to please Ihe sparse home town gathering of I.IS7. a re-match between those same two seemed more prohahle, Matchmaker I .any Atkin was nnncominitnl. Earlier in the week de hud talked of a Laussc match here Feb. "I thought I had tt all tl wav a somewhat hsappointrl Fullmer siiHi. "That split decision suirisd me. Hillmor. ti wildcat who threw mmches from evtM-vwhere, was nf his b.st w?ien he workxf on Cas- tellani's stomach. The Clewlnnder tried his usual style nf grabbing for his opponent, but sion changed' the tactic when Fullmer sailed in! with the left, then followed with! rights over Uic back. Cleveland likes six foot, four inch Hank Aguirre, who was only U-9 at Indianapolis but came up at season's end and beat Boston and then Detroit on a three-hitter. Also drawing raves is Rocco Co In vito, with 29 homers and 104 RBI's at Indianapolis. Cleveland says it could have obtained Mickey Vernon if it threw Rocco in on the deal. Sot Have Three The White Sox are booming shortstop Luis Apariclo, outfielder Ed White and pitcher Joe Dahlke. Aparicio, 21, Is a sure fielder whose speed led the Southern Assn. at Memphis with 48 stolen bases. White, a 29-yearold former Alabama grid ace, hit M2 at Memphis with 107 RBI's, '. Dahlke, 25, looks like a potentially great relief man. At (Memphis he paced the Southern Assn. with a 1.85 ERA, posting a 19-5 mark and refusing to give up a. home run in 44 games. Washington's major hope Is out fielder Noil Chrisley, 22, a strap ping six foot, two slugger who hit .320 at Nashville: It also likes pitcher Vibert Clarke, 25, who was 16-12 at Charlotte. The Yankees, equipped as well as they are, may have to make room for shortstop Jerry Lumpe and first baseman Marv Throne- herry, 21, who led the American Assn. with 36 homers and batted in 117 runs at Denver. Lumpe, 22 and si? feet, two, Is a "Marty Marion type shortstop who; hit .301 at Birmingham. Rod Sox Catcher There will be a flood of rookies in the Red Sox camp hut appar ently certain to stick is catcher Haywood Sullivan, 25 and six, four. He has good power and is a graceful receiver. Baltimore Is high on two speed ball pitchers, Charlie Locke. 23. and chunky Blb Harrison, 25. Locke was 18-13 at San Antonio, hurling five shutouts. Harrison was only 11-12 at Wichita bu! fanned 270 in 208 innings. He Won three games in the W es ter n League playoffs,' including a hitter and a one-hitter. In those 28 Innings he allowed only one run and struck out 37. . Best looking prospect amon many in the A's camp is pitcher Glenn Cox. who had an 11-5 mark at Montreal. This 24-year-old is the pitcher for whom the A's gave Brooklyn 515,000. There are, naturally, many other rookies who will get their shot next spring and many nf them are fine prospects for stardom. But these are the ones counted on to reallyj blossom in 1956 and from their midst probably will come the American league rookie ,of fhe year. Weak Cougars Await Week End Games With OSC PULLMAM.

Ho said he is bowing out to devote more time to his studies 'Patterson Eyes Marciano Fight NEW YORK (UP) Remarkable Floyd Patterson of Brooklyn will try to become the youngest heavy weight champion in ring history this year Instead of waiting until 1957 as previously planned. Just 21, the sleepy-eyed but cham-lightnin challenger said to day he would be ready to launch this title drive next month in a bout with big Bob Baker of Pitts burghdate and site ,to bo an nounced later.

Licenses Johnson Motoi Boats -&vJl' Gans K"ves ON BUS LINE On The Bend Bulletin, he Lowdown y GENE ANDEKSON Bulletin Sports Editor After having watched South Salem barely squeeze by McAlinn ville Tuesday, we are firmly con vinced the Lava Bears can win their opening district basketball game Friday if they really want to. It ail depends on their attitude. The Bruins, confident and too easy-going at times, took the open ing Ashland game lightly and got surprised with their first defeat Oi the year. Next night it was an all- together different story as the Bruins were ready and didn't take any chances. They won handily as all 11 players saw plenty of action. Grant Union was a simiiiar case. The first night the unheralded cagers from little John Day caught Bend off guard. Again it was a far-different story the second night. -' This time the Bend team didn't win. But relying on an offense they had only seen diagrammed TOM WINBIGLER Takes in East-West game that afternoon, they made a real battle of it, and were not counted out until the final seconds. Bend needn't fear the highly rated South Salem club, for per sonnel-wise they are on a par with the Saxons. If they really want to win bad enough, they will triumph in their opening district game. And an "upset" win would certainly be good for Central Oregon basket ball prestige. On the other hand, if the Bears just don't feel like playing, it could be a very disasterous and humiliating two-day valley inva sion. It is strictly up to 'the players.

Phone Thursday, January 5, 1956 I - e.irwj took in the annual East vs. West Shrine football game in San Fran cisco, Calif, last Saturday. "We were really disappointed in the way the East used Howard (Hopalong) Cassady, Ohio State's two-time All-American and Hois man award winner. Naturally we were all hoping to see the great halfback perform, but they used him primarily as a flanker. He ran a few dives and traps, but never ran the ends or off-tackle where he is the best", roporjpd Bend s head football coach. Don Schafer. Notre Dnme's highly-publicized fullback, failed to im press Winbigler. "He didn't do a whole lot, just carried it on a few straight bucks up the middle". "Preston Carpenter, Arkansas halfback, was about alt the West really had, continued, the Bruin boss. "Jim Contralto looked good throwing to Leon Clarke when he had a lot of room, but he just didn't have it in the clutch. Tho West was simply outmanned". "Iowa's Calvin Jones really played a .mean game. Man; you should have seen him on those traps", exclaimed Winbigler, "he really cleared his man out of there". Oregon's Lon Stincr played a good game, too. We listened to Clark Shaunessy, ex-Stanford coach who revolution ized football with the T-formation in 19-10 and currently scouting for the Chicago Bears, review the same with Gordy Soltau. 49er end. Shaunessy also noticed Stirter, and singled him out for special praise. Despite a few disappointments and the lop-sided score, Winbigler and McCauley were both thrilled with the gigantic benefit game and accompanying pageantry. "It is a sight just to see all those great football players out there", they concluded. Latest twist on t"ie Phil Shadoin tale, had the 7-foot er dissatisfied with present conditions and seek ing to quit. "Would you quit if you were first string?" asked Slats Gill. "No, probably not," replied Sha doin. '"Well if that is veur attitude, you mitrh just as well quit," came back Gill. A canvasliack duck has been Timber Jackets Chippewa, Coal Style, VItrIii Wool.
