THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON PAOE ELEVEN THREE VETERANS CARRY ON HILLCREST TOURNEY THURSDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1929 LARRUPING LEO IS FAVORED TO COME THROUGH Los Angeles W) Three veterans of the Uiiks. on whose determined brows at one time rested the pro fessional golfer's association crown Thursday will carry their campaign for another title to the third round of match play over the Hillcrest course In the annual s tournament bent on repeating. Heading the list of Wednesday's eight survivors, and out-standing among the former champions who '- won their way through the second 36 hole round, are Leo Diegei, au- gua Caliente, professional and de fending title holder, and Walter Hagen, five times victor in the event. Gene Sarazen, New York, who boasts a brace of P. O. A. triumphs, com pletes the trio. Of the five others who stroked their way through the second round of match play, only one, Al Espinosa of Chicago, ever reached the final bracket. The reign of this trio of elite pro fessionals Is destined to be Drier, for before this day is done, either the former open champion from the metropolitan district, or "Larrup-, ing Leo" wearer of the crown, will have been left behind. Dlegel, by virtue of his remarkable steady game coupled with his great back ground. Is favored to come through. The great Haig also Is picked up to parade through the third brack et, despite the fact that his op ponent. Tony Manero, New York, ""has displayed remarkable form. Should these favored sons of the fairways pass Thursday's obstacles, they will clash Friday in the semi finals, i as they did a year ago. The match In that event bids fair to over shadow even the final book ed for Saturday. ORF.GON PPPAntrs FOR ATTACK ON F!

ALLEN TO WORK HERE TWO DAYS BEFORE FIGHT Del Allen, claimant of the north west welterweight championship, who next Wednesday night fights Pat Dundee In the 10 round main event, Is expected In Salem Mon day. He plans to work out In the armory gymnasium on at least two occasions before tke night of the bout. Persons who know Allen and have seen him work say he is of the ag gresslve type of fighter; keeps In condition and is a bard worker. This will be the second meeting between AUen and Dundee, their first having resulted In a draw at Astoria. Although' Allen has done considerable fighting In the western part of the state, most of his bouts have been staged In eastern Ore gon, where he la best known. Blackwell, who with Terry K la teen, will furnish the six round semi-final entertainment, has decided to get In shape after having been caught in a slump by spud Murphy. He Is working out at the armory gym each night around 7:30. A new crop of preliminary boys will be seen on Wednesday night's card, Matchmaker Plant has an nounced. Just who they will be he has not divulged. Tom Louttit telephoned from Portland Wednesday that he would be available for the next card. PORTLAND BOOKS FACE VICTORIA Portand Victoria, with virtually the same linoun as last year, will make its initial appearance in Port land Thursday nlht when it mets the Portland Buckaroos at the Coli seum in a Pacific coast hockey league gap.e. Bobby Ivov.-e, manager of the Bucks, 'is not a little worried about the outcom" o! the game. Victoria has yet to break into the win col umn and Rnwe feels the Cubs are .hound to have a change in luck and -TiVflrs Portland may be the victims. The thicks .should be in full strengUi with Red Conn, captain, fully recovered from the severe cold which kept him out of a suit. Portland is now in second place In the league, with Seattle at the top, JUNIORS BEAT OPHS, 6 TO 0 A second Csconce Stadlcman was discovered Wednesday afternoon when the Junior lootball team of Salem hih school defeated the sophomores 6 to 0 at Olinger field. He Is young Bowden, who played tackle for the sophs. Coach Hunt- , inctn.says Bowden has the build and appearance of Stadleman- and moves about like a real player. He predicts big things for the young ster. Two other promising players were uncovered during the game. One was Foreman, playing quarter for the juniors and the other, Sanford. back field man for the sopiis. All three will prcbably be teen in red and black uniforms next fall. ' The Juniors were much too strong for the sophomores and it was only through inflicting heavy penalties that they were kept from running up a score. Four of their linesmen had played some with the regular team during the season. OLjen. playing center for the Juniors, went Jack and Gene May Appear In New York Ring New York (P) Jack Demp sey and Gene Tunney may meet without combat in the ring at Madison Square Gar den Monday night if the plans of the promoters? of the annual Christmas fond boxing show go through, Dempsey is sought as referee for the fight card and an announcement from the New York state athletic commis sion that he had been given permission to serve in that capacity is expected daily. An invitation has been ex tended to Tunney to serve as one of the judges for the same program but he has given no indication whether or not he will accept. through the soph line repeatedly. Juniors and seniors will fight It out for the school championship Friday afternoon, with the Juniors apparently having the best team. Speculation Turns To East; Trojans Picked For Rose Bowl Play Los Angeles (AP) The University of Southern Cali fornia will represent the west in the annual New Year's day football classic in the Rose Bowl, Pasadena. Coming from the Trojan general athletic com- mittee Wednesday night like KEENE SELECTS ALL-STAR TEAM PITTSBURGH MAY PLAY SUM'S San Francisco (LP) Telegrams were sent Wednesday night by the San Francisco junior chamber of commerce inviting the University 01 Pittsburgh to play St. Mary's col lege in San Francisco on December 21 and expressing willingness to un derwrite the game for $20,000. Since the selection of U. 8. C. to play in the tournament of roses contest at Pasadena, St. Marys would, in all probability, accept such a game at San Francisco and the board of athletic control is meeting Thursday to act on the chamber's invitation. The Rose Bowl committee Is also understood to be considering Pitts burgh among other eastern oppon- enst for the Trojans and whether that school would accept the San Francisco invitation if offered a choice of either game, was In doubt. Pittsburgh, if It chose, could play in both contests, since the Pasadena game is not played until New Year's day. Seven Willamette men are among the eleven players making up an all Northwest conference football team as selected by Coach Spec Keene. Linfield is represented by one man, while Whitman places four. Coach Kcene's first team follows: Holm gren. Whitman and Cardinal, Wil lamette, ends; Jones and Carpenter, Willamette, tackles; Philpott. Wil lamette, and Mengel, Whitman, guards; Ackerman, Willamette, cen ter: Applegate, Whitman, quarter; Erickson, Willamette, and warren, Linfield, halves; Lang, Willamette, fullback. ! A second team named by Keene has the following makeup: Llndman, Whitman and Haldane, Willamette, ends; Cartwright, Whit man, and Ganero, C. P. S., tackles; Gottfried and Ruch, Willamete, guards; Anderson, Whitman, cen ter; Gillihan, C. P. 8., quarter; Reese, Whitman and Rutlede, Ida ho, halves; Grewch, Willamette, fullback. Haldane Is the best offensive end in the northwest. In the opinion of Keene. He Is one of the few ends who takes the tackles out as he should, the Willamette mentor states. thunderbolt, announcement of TJ. S. C.'s acceptance dispersed half the heavy cloud of conjecture which hangs over the selection of repre sentatives of the west and for the blue ribbon contest each year. Declining to talk to the last, the selection committee of the Pasadena Rose tournament, heaved a sigh of relief, and promptly washed Its hands of the whole affair when the following simple announcement was made by the U. S. C. committee: "The University of Southern Cali fornia, with the approval of Presi dent R. B. Von Klein sin id. accepts the Invitation of the Pasadena Tournament of Roses to be the western representative at the Jan uary 1, 1930 game at the Pasadena Rose Bowl." All the, rumors, which- had been spread over both west and east, concerning selection of teams to participate, Thursday were concen trated in the east. Purdue, big ten champion and undefeated, Pitts burgh, with an equally remarkable record in the east. Tulane, a south ern team with' an unspotted escutcheon, and Southern Metho dist University of Texas were the focal points. The Trotan officials said they re ceived the invitation Tuesday after the University of California had eliminated Itself from the running because of a defeat at the hands of Stanford a week ago Saturday and had not had time to consider what school in the east would be invited. They said however, negotiations would be started immediately but carefully avoided saying with whom. Observers saw In it the passing of a quarrel between the school and the tournament committee which had arisen under previous tourna ment management.
