OSC Foils Before Gopher SSiorpshooters by By FRED ZIMMERMAN ' Corvallis, Ore.. Deo. 28 It ', was more than unfortunate that i Coach Slats Gill's Oregon State Beavers nlaved one of their : poorer games of the current . series at a time when the new Gill pavilion had its greatest s nj.tronaee since the $1,800,000 structure was opened to the pub lic. But that was the case Tues ' day night when the University of Minnesota scored a 51 to 41 decision over the Orangemen be fore a crowd of 73 G8 customers. In view of the fact that the cam pus was virtually deserted of stu dents because of the Christmas holidays, the outpouring of fans was considered remarkable. To those who cast an ap praising eye over the audience, there was some hesitancy to accept the figure of 7308. "If there are no more than that number here where will they put the 2832 others to bring it up to the capacity figure of 10, 200?" But, then it would be possible to squeeze hundreds nore Into the student and gen eral admission benches if the occasion demanded. Rut back to the ball game. Coach Osborne Cowles of the Gophers tossed an old fashioned zone defense against the Beavers and maintained it throughout. And why shouldn't he, since it worked so well. The two men out in front and the three be- nina Dotnered the Beavers no end in the first half and al though they led 7-3 at the end of four minutes, once the visitors found the range they tied the count at 8-all and then forged rapidly to the front to lead 27-14 at the half. Captain Whltey Skogg and Maynard Johnson, a couple of clissy Scandinavian ball han dlers, led the Minnesota at tack. Skogg, an expert at feinting his guard out of posi tion and then going in for easy lay-Ins, collected 13 points in the first half. He was held to two free points in the second, but Johnson took over to col- BASKETBALL BiGn scnooi, scours' (By the Associated Press) Olatakanle 47, Heppner 28. Lebanon 48, St. Mary'fl (Eugene) 39.

It was during this period that the Beavers threatened to close the gap, but they got no closer than 10 points with Johnson usually coming through to match the Staters' field goals. Coach Gill shuffled his men repeatedly after the first 10 min utes when it was evident that Payne, Len Rinearson, Jack De tour, Jim Padgett and Ray Sny der were not equal to the task of keeping the Gophers under control. Ken Storey and Dick Ballantyne provided most of the scoring punch for the Beavers during the late minutes of the second half. Ability of the Minnesotans to capture Beaver rebounds after the Iatter's hurried shots, played an important part in the win. This was particular ly true during the first half.

The flight Included unprecedented numbers of Canada geese and snow geese. Many an old time hunter who had been carrying a couple of goose loads for years Just in case," finally got a chance to fire away. A couple of large flocks of honkers, all tuckered out, even landed at Duluth airport. Geese flew virtually down Main street in Two Harbors. Minn. Both are Lake Superior shore communi ties, far off the acepted goose route which is generally through the Dakotas in these parts. Jimmy Robinson of Minnea polis, veteran duck hunter and trapshooting editor for Sports Afield, again "flew" the Mississ ippi route with the ducks and geese this season. He's been do ing it for years, starting in Man itoba, Canada, after the freeze up. . ' On his migration through Minnesota and Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois and down into Arkansas, Robinson heard nothing but fav orable shooting comment. Geese were shot in Iowa where they'd never been seen before, he says. If the great numbers of ducks and geese that come north next spring find the same favorable nesting conditions that account ed for 1949 s big flocks, says Robinson, the 1050 migration south should be "terrific."

Bowen, who comes from Bridgeton, N. J., said he is pretty sure the Dodgers will win the pennant in 1950, but "it's a bitter pill to swallow to win the pennant and then lose the ser ies." He said the St. Louis Cardin als are the only ones in the Na tional league that have hitters and the "only team in our lea gue that seem able to win a world series."

Three quintets tangled with cross-country foes last night. Each was manhandled. A fourth Washington State was shel lacked 87-44 by Eastern Wash ington college, a smaller and supposedly breather opponent.

And ask the men who played against him he never gave much, either. The long, raw-boned Ne braskan who won 373 games in a 20-year National league career may be near the end of the biggest game of all. He's pitching against a cancer that already has taken one ear and virtually deafened him. His words come haltingly from his county general hos pital bed. Doctors here have yet to re port their final diagnosis, but the cancer says his divorced wife, Amy stems from sun ir ritation on his fair skin during his long playing career. Nearing 63, Ol Pete Grover Cleveland Alexander in the rec ord books would prefer to for get about most of the last 20 years. Much of it, especially with poor health in recent years, hasn't been pleasant. Baseball is still foremost in his mind.
