    Fingerlings to
Be Legal Size
In Clear Lake
Lebanon Angling In Clear
Lake will be good again next
year, member! of the Santiam
Fish and Game association were
told by Howard Crockett, re-
sort manager, at this week's
meeting of the group.
The state game commission
has planted 50.000 fingerlings,
all of which will be legal size:
by opening day next year, Crock
ett said.
Kenneth Mayer reported the
season's profit for the resort was
$1,200, which will be placed
into future improvement at the
lake. The resort is a non-profit
project owned and operated by
the local game association.
Improvements made this year
included the remodeling of the
lodge room, finishing of three
upstairs rooms, new flooring in
cabins, and new stoves in all of
them.
A three-man committee was
appointed to arrange for the an
nual fish and game banquet in
January. Chairman Vern
Reeves will be assisted by El
mer Fitzgerald and Kenneth
Lanning.

Jim started his tour from
Washington about three months

worth much, and has been trad

One of them was a left-hind

The tooth now is the posses

Brooklyn, N.Y. Practically
every time a Dodger farm hand
goes south with the parent club
the rookie draws rave notices.
The National league champions
had something like 13 rookies
on their roster when they open
ed the 1948 season. Next spring
there will be about the same
number on the big club. Of
course, players on Dodger farm
clubs still can make the big
jump.
But from this corner only one
appears to be the real thing. He
is Bobby Morgan, the most val
uable player in the International
league last season.
Since the Dodgers used
three men at third base last
summer, Morgan, normally a
shortstop, is slated to take
over the hot corner. He can
field, steal bases and hit. He
batted .345 to lead the Int. cir
cuit in 1949.
Two other rookies certain to
stick, because they are bonus
players, are Billy Loes, the Long
Island City pitcher, and First
Baseman Wayne Belardi from St.
Paul. Belardi is supposed to be
the real thing but how can he
oust a solid sticker and a good
fielder like Hodges from first
base remains to be seen. He prob
ably won't.
The Dodgers, due to a wealth
of material among their 26 farm
clubs, already have parted with
some of their so-called prizes.
More will go in the Nov. 17 mi
nor league draft.
Already departed are Preston
ward to the Cubs, Sammy Jeth-
roe and Bob Addis to the Braves,
Dick Whitman to the Phillies
Irv Noren to the Senators, Mar
vin Backley to the Reds, Ed
Chandler, Paul Minner and Har
ry Taylor.
The sale of such players as
Addis and Noren was inevitable.
They were subject to the draft
anyway. Both are outfielders
and the Dodgers are deep in
gardeners. Jethroe's sale to the
Braves was the result of his age.
Though he stole 89 bases and hit
.328 at Montreal the former
Cleveland Buckeye Negro play
er is 29, too old to fit into
Branch Rickey's youth move
ment. Dan Bankhead, the Negro
fastballer is up in years at 28
but Brooklyn needs pitching
and they're going to try him
again. Two years ago he look
ed better than Newcnmhe.
They were in the same Negro
league. But Newcombe was
only 21 then. At the World
Series many experts said
Newcombe la the best pitcher
in the majors, without reser
vation. "He has marvelous
control for a fastbal' pitcher,"
said Allie Reynolds who beat
Don 1-0 In the Series opener.
While the Dodger farms have
been very productive, the parent
club still is faced with a pitch
ing shortage. Of the 16 pitch
ers scheduled to go into training
at the Vero Beach, Fla., convey
( orbelt camp next March, nine
must be considered in the first

Knorek, former University of
Detroit cage ace, is left from the

other member of that original
squad has departed.

Rickey Hopes He'll Win
flight. Eight were with the team
in the Series, one which Rickey
would rather forget. The ninth
is bonus hurlcr Loes.
Of the second platoon of
pitchers, Bankhead and Phil
Hcugstad stand a good chance of
making the grade. Haugstad
won 22 and lost 7 for St. Paul
and was one of the 14 players
whose options were recalled last
August. Haugstad will be 26
next spring.
It will always be a Dodger
dilemma with a cast farm sys
tem. If only Rickey could get
a couple pitchers each year off
the farm. Sure, he likes the
speed of Robinson, the arm of
Furillo and the hustle of Her
manski. But it's pitching that
Brooklyn needs and from now
ort you can bet that that's where
the old master will do much
concentrating.
Here are the Dodgers who
will go south (Subject to change
with much notice.)
First basemen: Wayne Be
lardi, Kevin Connors, Dee Fondy
and Gil Hodges.
Infielders: Rocky Bridges,
Billy Cox, Buddy Hicks, John
Jorgensen. Ed Miksis, Bob Mor
gan, Pee Wee Reese. Jack Robin
son and Hank Schenz.
Outfielders: Cal Abrams, Bill
Antonello, Tommy Brown, Carl
Furillo, Gene Hermanski, Luis
Olmo, George Shuba and Duke
Snider.
Catchers: Roy Campanella,
Bruce Edwards and Steve Lem
bo.
Pitchers (First Flight): Jack
Banta, Rex Barney, Ralph
Branca, Carl Erskine, Joe Hat
ten, Billy Loes, Don New
combe, E r v i n Palira and
Preacher Roe. (Second
Flight): Dan Bankhead, Phil
Haugstad, Clem Labine, Morris

PRESS AGENT TURNS HONEST
Screwy Relics to Aid Victims
Of Sclerosis-Demon Disease
Bv HARMAN W. NICHOLS
(United Pre staff Ce-rreapnndenti
Washington, Nov. 12 (U.R) Jim Moran, the madcap press
agent, has turned honest.
I know because he picked up my lunch check. First time since
I've known him.
Seriously, Jim is working for a cause now. He has just com
pleted a 42,000-1"
raid. "Adolph and I can prove
it with documents took a big
bite out of this very rug when
he heard his troops were get
ting the business at Stalingrad."
One of Jim's items (I'd like
to keep it myself if it wasn't so
valuable) is a pair of Jap binoc
ulars. They can spot an infant
flea at 11 miles.
"If that doesn't bring a fancy
price from some New York
peeping Tom, I'll miss my guess."
Three Act Comedy
Slated for Gervais

comedy "Look Who's Here,
which was successfully present

Business and Professional club
at the Woodburn high school
last week, will be repeated No
vember 16 at the Gervais union

o'clock under the sponsorship of
the Gervais Parent-Teacher as

help furnish equipment for hot
lunches at the Gervais grade

Portland, Ore., Nov. 12 U
Doctors today postponed a deli
cate operation they had planned
to save the single good eye
which guides a family of three
through their daily lives.
Instead of having her good
left eye operated upon today,
Mary Hope Hodgdon will be op
erated upon next week.
The postponement was neces
sary because of an inflammation
that developed in her blind
right eye after a boy accidental
ly srralrhrri it with his fincer-
three-act lnaii while they were swimming.
Mary Hope's parents are com
pletely blind and she uses her
single good eye to aid them in
their daily tasks.

Vaughn Sponsored Track
Faces Jockey Rebellion
San Bruno, Calif., Nov. 12
0J.P.)The 1949 winter meet
ing at historic Tanforan race
track faced an uncertain fu
ture today in the face of out
right rebellion by Jockeys,
owners and trainers against a
proposed 1700 minimum
purse. , .
Track operators announced
yesterday minimum p u r t e i
would be cut from $2000 to
$1700, effective Monday, in a
move to pull the winter meet
ing out of the red. Sagging
parimutuel handles were
blamed for the track's predi
cament. '
The Jockey's Guild, howev
er, was having no part of the
"wage cut" and announced it
would boycott all races with
less than $2000 purses.
The jockeys were barked
firmly by the California Tho
roughbred Owners' and
Trainers' association, which
refused to enter $1700 races.
The Tanforan management
met in a two-hour session with
horse and jockey representa
tives yesterday afternoon In
the presence of Loyd Wright,
chairman of the California
horse racing board, but no
agreement was reached.
