From the Ritter Hot Springs
i came a report that the beaver

j The same mail brought a com
i plaint of the reported activities
of deer damming up an irriga

i The district agent is won
', dering if this could be some
i cooperative agreement where
I by the deer were taking over
' the normal work of the beaver
' while the latter took the cure
. for rheumatism, without pay
' ment of fee, no doubt.

Friday night, as Oregon high
school football teams start down
the home stretch of the race
for the state championship.
With quarter-final playoffs
only two weeks away, prep
squads throughout the state will
put on the final drive toward
playoff berths.
Only two of the eight fi

But the clash of McMinnville
and Hillsboro both unbeaten and
untied in district 6, will award
third playoff berth tonight.
And next Thursday, a special
game between the two Portland
leaders Grant and Roosevelt
will decide the Portland and
district 8 winner.
All the district 4 title con
tenders meet out-of-district op
ponents this week-end. Albany,
which has been bouncing along

Record for Ducks
The trouble is, the teammates
didn't make quite enough
touchdowns.
He's got this kicking business
down to an exact science and
most of the science is keeping
his head down.
Last year Daniels missed quite
a few, mainly because he want
ed to watch the ball. He'd lift
his head as he kicked to see
where the ball was going. Any
good golfer who has spent hours
in the rough will tell you why
that's the wrong way.
Cool Papa trained himself
to reach down and pick up a
blade of grass and put it in his

in the air. And instead of
looking at the ball, he finally
looks at the referee to see
whether the conversion was

Writer 'Burned
In LeBaron Feud
Stockton, Calif., Nov. 4 "PI
The controversy over whether
Eddie Le Baron or Bob Celeri
is the coast's best quarterback
reached such fever heat here
that a sports editor was burned
in effigy.
Five hundred shouting, jeer
ing College of the Pacific stu
dents last night found Bill Lei
ser. sports editor of the San
Francisco Chronice, guilty of
slighting Eddie Le Baron, Pa
cific's great quarterback.
They used a copy of Leiser's
sports page as a torch to set fire
to his effigy hanging from a
lamppost.
The outburst was touched off
by the action of the northern
California football writers last
Monday in deciding to back
Celeri, the University of Califor
nia winning quarterback, for all-
America honors. Two weeks pre
viously the same group had se
lected Le fcaron. The switch was
motivated by Celeri's perform
ances for California against
UCLA and Washington.
Leiser remarked In San
Francisco:
"I would have enjoyed the
celebration, but I wasn't in
vited." Advance Time for

Student 'Strike' Follows
Ban for Luring Hoop Men
Jeffersonville, Ind., Nov. 4 (u.R)
The entire community flung its
weight today behind high school
students who walked out on
"strike" to force state athletic
officials to let their basketball
team compete for the state title.
Tempers boiled over yester
day and almost everybody in
town turned out last night for a
big demonstration and protest
parade that lasted three hours.
About 800 of the high
school's 1,100 students left
their classes shortly after the
state high school athletic as
sociation announced that the
Jeffersonville Red Devils had
been suspended from state
competition for allegedly lur
ing two team prospects from
the high school in nearby Sil

the striking students, their par

ends as:
"No team, no ball, no

Meanwhile, 98 business and
professional leaders signed i
petition, protesting the suspen

school board.
The petition said the athletic
association's action had put the
rights of the siRners' children
"in jeopardy." It indicated that
