The second running of the mile and five furlong classic Is set for tomorrow at Belmont Park. Two European horses and three from this country probably will oppose the great Calumet Farm triple crown champion. Nathoo, a gray English three-year-old owned by the Aga Khan, is a definite starter among the foreign contenders. Final word is expected during the day on the Belgian champion, Bay eux. Other American horses be sides Citation are Phalanx, Miss Grillo, and Drumbeat, with a remote possibility Connlver might get another chance. Final verdict on Bayeux, which suffered bruised hocks during his plane ride from Brus sels earlier this week, will be given another light workout.

There'll be a top brand of at Sweetland field when Salem high's victory hungry Vikings get down to business with Springfield's Millers. The Viks are primed to reverse their 1948 record when they take to the field at 8 p.m., but the Millers' record has shown improvement, too, and the Springfielders have as much at stake in the game as the Salem team. Coach Loren Mort, whose team, even in defeat, has shown a tenacious defense, has worked the crew this week to polish an offense for the Springfield game. The game Friday night, while strictly a cellar club affair of the Big Six league, is expected to show two improved and de termined clubs to Sweetland field fans. It will be the Vikings' sec ond home game of the 1948 sea son. Salem opened its sched ule in September with a loss to Vancouver, Wash., on the local grid. Albany s Bulldogs, aiming for the state playoffs again this year, will run up against cen tral Oregon's top team, the Bend Lava Bears, an Associated Press report said. The undefeated, untied teams will be battling for the lead of the Big Six league and to stay in the select circle of clubs with unblemished records. Only four others still have perfect records, and they face easy tasks this week-end. Grants Pass will be host to oft-walloped Ashland. Hillsboro will take on a Forest Grove team that has yet to win. The two unbeaten, untied Portland teams are expected to win handily, Jefferson over Washington and Roosevelt over Cleveland. Southern Oregon also will see an important district 2 game as the strong Klamath Falls team travels to play powerful Medford.

Feller Says He'll Get New York, Oct. 15 W) Ru mors to the contrary, Bob Fel ler will not be asked to take a cut from his $80,000 salary of last season. Rapid Robert is the guy who says so and the one who should know. And if anyone is worried about the condition of his pay check right arm, Feller says "my arm feels strong and I aim to keep it that way by not go ing barnstorming this winter. I honestly feel I'm in for a fine season in 1949. "I'm not at liberty to give any details," Feller said at the end of the world scries, "but you'll not be wrong in writing that I won't receive any kind of a salary slash whatsoever. In fact some people might be sur prised when and if my 1949 sal ary is made public."

Following Cleveland's world series triumph, Veeck remark ed: "We have a pitching staff that is good for five more years. Bob Feller still is the best pitcher in baseball. He will prove that next year. He helped us tre mendously despite the fact he lost two world series games. Remember, he won seven straight during our stretch drive. Without him, we couldn't have won the pennant. Behind Feller we will have Bob Lemon, Gene Bearden and Steve Gro mek." That should spike any specu lation that Feller has pitched his last ball for the Indians, and that the tribe is ready to unload the highest paid pitcher in base ball.

Aiken stated that "we are going to take plenty of chances" against the Trojans. "We may be beaten badly but we win put on a good show. Further more we are not going to stand around picking our noses while they score on us." He admitted that it was "now or never" for the Webfoots, but intimated that victory over Southern Cal would constitute a long stride toward the Rose Bowl "We are not a bunchof shrink ing violets neither the players nor the coacnes ana we can play inspired football," con tinued Coach Aiken. He indi cated that his team was "up" for the USC contest, adding that an inspired club cnuia well "kick the pants off the opposi tion." Referring to last Saturday's game with Idaho, Aiken said the Vandals were "hot" and took advantage of every mistake made by Oregon. He praised his men for jheir showing against Michigan, pointing out that the "breaks" played an important part in the result. Aiken said that Wooley Lew is, speedster who has been held out of action since the season's first game, wll replace the in jured Johnny McKay, left half back. McKay will probably see service, however. An overflow crowd is expect ed for the contest which is ex pected to be played under fa vorable weather conditions.
