Then there also was the de

into the possibility that base
ball was violating the anti-trust
laws because of its restrictions
on radio broadcasting.
Chandler settled both and the
game came out with a clean bill
of health.
The Mexican league jump
ers dropped their suits and
baseball came up with new
broadcasting rules which the
anti-trust officials endorsed.
Chandler was almost solely
responsible for settling these
differences without hurting
the game.

Albany had refused to waiver
any longer its territorial rights
which meant that Schenectady
no longer would have minor
league baseball because it lies
within Albany's territorial juris

bany. Then Chandler stepped into
the situation. He was determin

continue to have minor league

Southern Oregon Angling
Prospects Best in Years
By HARRY CHIPMAN
(United Preu Stiff correspondent)
Medford, Ore., March 8 .K
Fishing prospects in Southern
Oregon are the best they have
been in the past four years In
the opinion of those who fish
the many lakes and streams of
the famous Rogue River Valley.
Old timers say that a good
year, of fishing comes every four
years and that the 1950 season
should be a good one. Anglers
have returned home with empty
or nearly empty creels for the
past three years but are getting
their equipment ready for a busy
time when the season opens on
May 1.
Deeper snow In the hills as
a result of an unusually hard
winter will mean a better run
off in the Rogne river, thus
providing high water for a
longer period of time to enable
the fish to get up the stream.
An unusually heavy run-off
of near- flood proportions
would nullify this but there
Is no reason at the present
time to believe this will hap

ger for the second straight year
was Hungary's Ede Kiraly, who
had 1,344.92 points.
The United States has won
every championship so ar and
will be seeking the women's
crown tonight.
Aja Vrazanova, Czechoslova
kia's defending champion, held
a slender lead of less than one
point after yesterday's compul
sory skating.
Sonya Klopfer of Brooklyn

of southern Oregon's most popu
lar resorts, is expected to be
better than in recent years. A
restocking program, which was
undertaken last year, is due to
be started again as soon as pos
sible this spring and a poison
ing program to rid the lake of
trash fish will continue. Bait
fishing at the lake has been stop
ped but trailers are expected to
have little trouble getting their
limit of rainbow trout.
Reports from Lake O'
Woods, nestled In the Cascades
between Medford and Klamath
Falls, also Indicate food fish
ing this year. The lake was
stocked with 110,000 finger-.
lings last year and promises
have been made to stock the
water heavily with legal sized
fish this year, the fourth con
secutive year this has been
done. Toward the end of last
season catches averaged one
foot In length.
A good fish trap has been In
stalled at the head of the lake
and more control is being taken
on trash fish.
A good planting of rainbow
and eastern brook trout was
made at Fish Lake last year and
another has been promised for
early spring. Better results
with bigger fish are expected
than at any time in the past few
years, those familiar with the
lake claim.
A hard winter generally means
an early spring which would go
a long way to aid game birds.
With an early .spring, birds
would nest early and in many
cases birds would nest twice in
stead of the usual once in an
ordinary spring. This would
mean from 20 to 24 birds to a
hatching instead of the usual 10
or 12.
Floods in the southern Ore
gon area are highly uncommon
and practically no high water to
flood nests Is expected at this
time. Although there was an
unusual amount of snow in the

valley this year, it did not last
long enough at any one time to
seriously affect feeding of game
birds, it is believed.
While there has been some
loss of deer due to lack of nat
ural feed in the mountains,
it is not believed the losses
will seriously affect the count.
The greatest toll of deer oc
curred among young fawns of
last year which did not have
the necessary strength to buck
the snow drifts, many dying
of exhaustion and exposure.
A continuous campaign by
government trappers against
cougars has greatly lowered the
toll of deer in the southern Ore

That is 160 points above the old

Fans, who flocked to watch
his court antics, swear he did
not make an orthodox pass or
shot all season. Although he
stands but 6 feet, three inches,
he outjumped most players six
feet six and above. He can palm
a basketball as easily as he can a
baseball.
Coach Marv Marsnman says
it takes bis players half a sea
son to get used to McLaugh
lin's passing. He fires them
from any direction. Sometimes
he even passes the ball to him
self by rolling it between an
opponent's legs or bouncing It
off the backboard.

basket. Then he will slowly lift
his leg high, turn his head and
drive the ball off the backboard.
If they're laying for that 1 one,
he shoots a variety of under
handed shots.
McLaughlin has been cavort
ing for Pacific Lutheran for four
years. Last season he joined the
McCord Field Packets in the
national AAU tournament and
ended up with offers from sev
eral professional teams and the
amateur Oakland Blttners (now
the Blue and Gold Nuggets). He
was all for joining them until
he was talked into completing
his education.
His effectiveness is heightened
by a perfect dead-pan expres
sion.
Now that his college playing
days are over, McLaughlin is
thinking about going into high
school coaching. But first he
wants a crack at professional or
top AAU basketball.
'He won't have any trouble
making the grade," Coach
Harshaman says, "if the other
players can get used to him.'
