OSAA May Poll Board ior
Corvallis Reinstatement
Added significance was given
to the Armistice day clash be
tween Salem and Eugene high
schools with the announcement
that Corvallis had been suspend
ed by the Oregon School Activi
ties association.
The suspension, which may be
altered by a poll of OSAA mem
bers, came after five Corvallis
upperclassmen painted Albany's
Hudson field stands with "Beat
Albany" slogans.
Lifting of the suspension is
considered most likely, but
should It continue, the Salem
Eugene game would deter
mine the winner of the Big
Six league championship and
give the victor of that contest
a strong bid for District 4
football honors.
If Corvallis is reinstated, the
Spartans will play Albany on
Friday night, and the victor of
that contest will share the Big
Six title with the winner of the
Viking-Axemen game.
Both Friday victors would be
considered for the district crown
along with Lebanon, which lost
to Corvallis and tied with Al
bany, and University high of
Eugene, which lost to Lebanon
and tied Eugene.
Meanwhile, Coach Loren
Mort said his Vikings were in
peak mental condition for the
traditional battle with Eugene
Friday.
"As far as I can see, if we
can carry on as we did against
Astoria, we'll have an even
chance of handling Eugene,"
Mort predicted cautiously.
The only injury which is like
ly to keep a Salem player out
of uniform for the final game
on Armistice day is the old
sHoulder injury to Burt Harp.
From Coos Bay, united Press
reported that Leo Mayfield,
OSAA chairman, said there was
a good chance a telephonic poll
would be taken among board
members Wednesday to deter
mine whether Corvallis high
school should be reinstated in
interscholastic athletic competi
tion with other Oregon high
schools.
Mayfield said the board
wanted to act on the matter as
soon as possible. "If we can't
clear it up by phone today,"
he said, "we'll have to get to
gether somewhere Thursday."
Meanwhile, Corvallis Princi
pal Ray Hardman said if the
game was not played Friday, it
could never be played. Mayfield
said he didn't know how such a
possible missed game would be
counted in the standings if Cor
vallis were reinstated to the
OSAA.
Hardman said the five up
perclassmen involved in the
Albany raid will be dealt with
at a later meeting of the board
of education in Corvallis.
At Albany, School Super
intendent I. R. llalseth said
restitution had been made by
Corvallis for the damage and
that "so far as Albany is con
cerned, Albany would not ob
ject to immediate reinstate
ment of Corvallis."
A three-quarters vote . of
OSAA board members is re
quired before a school can be
reinstated to the association aft
er restitution has been made to
the damaged school.

Estacada Wins WVL Title
Wood burn A combination of
Canby's 12 to 7 win over Wood-
burn and Estacada's 38 to 7 tri
umph over Sandy Tuesday night
enabled the Estacada Rangers to
annex the Willamette Valley
league grid championship.
Canby's win, engineered by a
hard-driving Cougar backfield,
was in the nature of an upset
that left the Bulldog fans dazed
momentarily. The visitors tal
lied two touchdowns in the sec
ond quarter, to match one fash
ioned by the Bulldogs. And
while Canby flubbed both at
tempts at conversion, events
proved that they were not need

Northwest Loop Stages
Two Weekend Grid Games
The Northwest conference
will stage two football games
this week, with one of them,
College of Idaho versus Pacific
university at Forest Grove, con
stituting the big event of the
season. Willamette will enter-
,f tain its arch rival. Whitman col
lege, Friday night.
Idaho needs a victory over
Pacific if it is to protect the
crown gained from last year's
operations. A victory for the
Badgers would deadlock the
Coyotes from Caldwell and Lew
is & Clark for the first place.
The Badgers, by defeating Wil
lamette a week later, could cut
in on the championship.
The Badger-Coyote contest,
booked for Saturday night, will
mark the final competition for
two outstanding Northwest con
ference aces Tom Winbigler of
the College of Idaho and Stan
Russell of Pacific.
In its game with the Mis
sionaries, Willamette will be
fighting to keep out of the
cellar. Neither club has won
a conference engagement to
date.

The hint that the Dodgers are

The conference was called to
announce that 65-year-old Burt

Neither Rickey nor Shotton
would come right out and say
so but it was learned that Raf

officials during their closing ses-
a rush. A bootleg play with
Leffler shielding the pigskin

yards to the Woodburn 20 and a
few plays later Ron Palmer, the
Cougars' 220 pound fullback
cracked over. The attempt at
conversion was missed and
Woodburn led 7 to 6.
The margin was quickly
erased after Woodburn had
fumbled deep in its own ter

the visitors a fresh start and a
repetitoin of the bootleg play
resulted in a second touch
down as Harry Blair went ov

Woodburn finished the season
with five wins, one loss and a

Named Lineman of Week
Coast League to
Seek Step Near
Major Status
Cincinnati, Nov. 9 (Pi The
Pacific coast league will try
again next month to nudge a
short step toward its long sought
recognition as a major league
baseball loop.
But the effort will be made
without any help from the major
league executive council.
Baseball Commissioner A. B.
Chandler disclosed Tuesday that
the council last week consider
ed a Pacific coast proposal that
its players be exempt from the
major league draft and finally
agreed to submit the proposal
to major club owners without
recommendation. The joint
meeting of major league teams
will be held in New York on
Dec. 14.
At present, the Pacific coast
loop is in the same class with
the American association and
the International league as a
class AAA minor league and cer
tain of its players are subject to
draft by the major loop teams.
sion Tuesday afternoon.
Opening games next spring
will include Tacoma at Salem,
April 18; Yakima at Wenatchee,
Vancouver at Tri-Cities and Vic
toria at Spokane. Each club will
play approximately 150 games,
with the season closing Septem
ber 10.
An effort was made in some
quarters to boost admission
prices, but the majority voted
against the proposal, taking
the attitude that a lift would
drive customers away.
The league inserted a rule re
stricting club rosters to the em
ployment of no more than 10
men who have played more than
three years of professional base
ball. This plan is calculated to
bring larger numbers of rookiei
into competition.
The Spalding baseball will ba
used.
When the Salem situation is
clarified as to ownership of
the franchise, President Rob
ert Abel said the league would
acknowledge the transfer if it
is made.

The western states may not gain

During his recent tour of Na
tional league cities Rickey is said
to have cornered Warren Giles,
head man of the Reds, and talk
ed to him about prospects of
landing the 32-year-old mound
vet.
"I think there might be a
chance of getting the pitcher
we're after before the season
opens next April," Rickey
said. He didn't identify play
ers offered In exchange. At the
same time he did not deny
that the names of Catcher
Bruce Edwards, infielder Ed
die Miksis and outfielders
Luis Olmo and Tommy Brown
were mentioned as possible
bait.
"I think the club is good
enough to win the pennant at it
stands right now,' Shotton said
"However, we're after the world
series. We have lots of good
kid pitchers. What we lack is a
good, reliable, old pitcher, who
can start games and relieve when
necessary."
Raffensberger, working both
as a starter and reliever last
season, won 18 games and lost
17 for the seventh place Reds.
Next season will be his 1 0th

tle Creek, Pa. Last week the
award went to Duke's Blaine
Earon from Altoona, Pa.
Frank Leahy, Notre Dame
coach, thinks so highly of his
six-foct-four end, he would like
to try him at fullback, carrying
the ball. However, Hart is too
good a blocker at end.
Besides he sometimes carries
the ball on end-around plays and
when he snares forward passes.
In one play of the Michigan
State game Hart caught a pass.
Two MSC tacklers tried to stop
him, but both were knocked flat.
Hart's performance surpassed
that of Jimmy Kynes, Florida
center, who sparked his team
to an upset triumph over Geor
gia. Playing on both offense
and defense Kynes turned in
one of the best games of his ca
reer. He was always in the
right spot at the right time.
Joe Cloidt, Washington end,
was the lone Pacific Coast line
man included in this week's
nominations.
