Allison Signs Contract
Those who have known of Dick Allison's ambition to become
a professional baseball player are not surprised that he has
signed a contract with the Boston Red Sox. His yearning to
get a chance with the pros has been uppermost in his thoughts
ever since he donned a catcher's mask for Salem high a few
years ago. That desire influenced his work with his books,
which in turn cut short his career at Willamette. However,
Coach Johnny Lewis recognized Dick's hustle and ability and
was largely responsible in getting the young fellow his great
opportunity. Since determination and hustle play a large part
in all lines of athletic endeavor, we have a feeling that Dick will
make the grade.
Well Timed Retirement v
We know of no better way to taper off on a life of extra
' ordinary business activity than to spend the first few weeks
of freedom sitting in on a spring baseball training camp.
That is what Harry Collins, former district manager
for the P.T. & T. company is doing. Comfortably located In
Riverside, Harry is in a position to take in all of the Port
land Beaver activities, Including many of the exhibition
games down that way. He was impressed with Jack Creel
who worked against the Chicago Cubs the other day. "This
fellow Creel will help Portland a lot this year. Saw him
work five innings twice and no runs were scored and only
four hits." Collins has picked up no gossip concerning the
players Portland will turn to Salem but reports Manager
Ad Liska is "in good shape." .

sasketeers is no exception to the well known fact that all mem
bers of the clan have been highly competitive athletic per
formers. None of them from the time of Luke and Zeke Girod
of Willamette baseball fame of several years ago, has been
large of stature. But none has ever taken a back seat when it
comes to competitive spirit. They always play for keeps in
whatever line of sports they participate. May the tribe in
crease and prosper.
Jake Leicht Through
Jake Leicht, one time University of Oregon grid great
has returned to the Eugene campus where he expects to
complete work this spring for his master's degree in physical
education. After that he hopes to land a coaching job at
one of the state's larger high schools or one of California's
junior colleges. Two season of professional football have
convinced Jake that the sport is not for him. His legs took
a terrific beating while playing for money.
Licenses Going Up
With 394,000 fishing and hunting licenses issued during 1949
the time is not far distant when there will be more anglers than
there are fish. Of course an increase is to be expected in view
of the numerous folk who have come to Oregon to make their
homes. During the decade licenses sold more than doubled.
Non-residents purchased close to 20,000 fishing licenses and
1800 hunting licenses during the past year. Fishermen pre
dominated with 181,000 angling licenses being sold. It takes
money to operate a successful fish and game program and in
this connection it can be pointed out that elk and deer winter
ranges in the Tillamook burn are now being planted with
various trees, shrubs, legumes and grasses on a trial basis.
Incidentally those careless folk who leave camp fires burning
or throw away cigarette stubs should be forced to make a
tour of the Tillamook burn. While time has healed a few of
the scars there is still evident of destruction wrought by the
flames that roared unchecked through the virgin forests for days.

Woodburn Ball
Team Goes Into
Action March 20
Woodburn The 1950 Bulldogs
of Woodburn high school will
make their first baseball appear
ance at home in a game Monday,
March 20, against the Newberg
Tigers on the Woodburn Legion
baseball field. The Willamette
valley league opener will be
against the Mt. Angel Preps on
the local diamond on Friday,
March 24.
The Newberg game will be
called at 2 p.m. and the starting
lineup will include eight letter-
men from last year's squad ac
cording to Coach Charles Sher
on. Starting behind the home
plate will be Lyle Henderson
with Oscar Larson expected to
take over the opening pitcher
assignment. Jim Vandehey is
slated at first base, Scott Odgers
at second, Art Nelson at short
stop and Merle Henn at third
base. Eldon Erb will be in right
field with Jim Hall at center. No
veteran is available for left
field.
Among promising prospects on
the squad of more than 30 as
pirants are Harley Dew and Har
old Deshon as catchers, John
Schocnbecher, Johnny T'.cknor,
Bob Withers and Larry Berkey
as infielders: Arnold Evans and
Ed and Joe Kelley as pitchers,
Leonard Pavlicek, Ralph Und-
seth and Pat Huiras as outfield-
s.
Woodburn will have only two
home league games during the
season Mt. Angel here March
24 and Dallas here April 21.
However Sheron has arranged at
least two home practice games,
the Newberg tilt Monday and
with McMinnville April 28. All
home games will be played at
the Legion park. i
Leahy Optimistic
On Eve of Irish
Spring Training
South Bend, Ind., March 18
VP) It was a weird St. Patrick's
day for the football Irish of
Notre Dame bringing snow
from the sky and optimism from
Coach Frank Leahy.
The snow postponed the tra
ditional start of spring practice.
The squad will try again Mon
day.
Leahy surveyed 1950 pros
pects and said, "If we can get by
North Carolina in our opener
here on Sept. 30, it may take a
pretty good college team to
beat us."
That, for Leahy, was extreme
optimism. A year ago he said his
team might lose five games. He
was just five games overcautious
then.

$275,000
Among Nut
The board of directors of Northwest Nut Growers at a meeting
held March 14 authorized prompt distribution of $275,000 to
local member associations on all poundage of filberts delivered
into the special filbert pool which closed October 5, 1949.
Annoucement of the payment was made by John E. Trunk
general manager of Northwest
Nut Growers.
According to the figures as
sembled by Dean Pfouts secretary-treasurer
of Northwest Nut
Growers, the distribution will
average 3 cents per pound, or
$60 per ton. This will bring the
average credit value of special
pool cash advances to the locals
up to 12.5 cents per pound, and
is being made in keeping with
the board s policy of distributing
funds to locals for the growers
just as rapidly as inventory li
quidation permits, Trunk said.
The special pool is not being
paid completely at this time as
the average sales value of the
crop cannot yet be projected,
Trunk pointed out. However, it
will close before Pool No. 1,
which includes all filberts deliv
ered by locals to Northwest Nut
Growers between October 5 and
November 10, and in Trunk's
opinion, should pay out more
than Pool No. 1 by reason of
less cost accruing to it.
Pool Surprisingly Big
Last fall it was anticipated
that locals might deliver 500
tons of merchantable filberts to
the special pool, but at the clos
ing date there was on hand 2250
tons, or four and one-half times
as many, Trunk reported. In
spite of the unexpected size of
the pool, substantial distribution
is justified at this time.

Consider Special
Sports Division
For Larae Schools
Eugene, March 18 (IP) There
still is a chance a special sports
division will be set up for the
state's largest high schools.
Frank O'Neil, president of the
State Coaches association, re
ported yesterday that the matter
still is under consideration by
the Oregon School Activities As
sociation's board of control.
The coaches proposed the new
division a Class AA group to go
on top of the present Class A
and Class B. It was rejected
last year by the delegate assem
bly of the OSAA.
In the meeting yesterday, the
coaches asked the OSAA to un
derwrite the annual state base
ball tournament.

crop would have gone unheeded
if the board of directors and
management of Northwest Nut
Growers had not requested the
industry hearing which led to
the establishment of the filbert
marketing agreement.
The first diversion payment
from the commodity credit
board, amounting to about 1
cent per pound on the total 1949
crop merchantable pack will be
paid direct to growers by the
filbert control board.
A second diversion program
has just been approved in which
payments will be made to the
participating packers. This is
expected to be approximately
1.2 cents per pound for grower
members of Northwest Nut
Growers. When these payments
are made they should be consid
ered additional pool credit be
yond that which members of
Northwest Nut Growers nor
mally receive.
Walnut Position Studied
The board of directors also
reviewed the position of the
1948 walnut pool which was
closed last fall on a very con
servative inventory basis There
are pool proceeds of about 1.5
cents per pound still available
for distribution and since the
inventory is now completely
sold this money was ordered
paid to local units. This final
distribution will bring the aver
age net pool value to locals to
16 cents per pound on the 1948
walnut pool. Since nearly 50
percent of the 1948 crop was cull
shelling stock, the return is con
sidered quite favorable.
Checks are being mailed
promptly from the central office
of Northwest Nut Growers to lo
cal managers covering both the
1948 walnut pool final settle
ment and the 1949 special filbert
pool progress payments Locals
participating in the payments
are the Amity-Gaston Nut Grow

Small Fire at
Ward Store
Fire started In a trash box in
a rest room at the Montgomery
Ward store on North Liberty
early Friday night, and might
have done extensive damage had
it not been for the sprinkler
system In the store.
The fire was observed by a
police patrolman not long after
the store closed and he turned
in an alarm. The heat, however,
reached the sprinkler system on
the second floor and set it off,
flooding that floor with water.
The water driped through to
the main floor. Walls and floors
were damaged, but not exten
sively, and there was little dam
age to merchandise.
The store had closed at 9 p.m.
Patrolman V. F. Schmidt discov
ered the' blaze. Firemen held
the fire to the women's lounge
on the second floor where it ap
parently started from a cigarette
tossed into the trash box.

Greyhound Employee Council
Will Air Disputes at Meeting
San Francisco, March 18 JP) The joint council of employes of
the Greyhound bus system will meet here late this month to de
termine action over a series of disputes with the system man
agement, A. A. Baker, union business agent, said here today.
The Amalgamated Motor Coach Employes union, representing
approximately 2.7 5 0 drive rs
and station employes in
seven
western states, has been taking
strme vote lor several days.
Baker said.
He explained that the union
was divided into four locals.with
i n d e p e ndent headquarters at
San Francisco, P o r 1 1 and, Los
Angeles and Phoenix. Results
of the strike authorization vote
has been completed in the San
Francisco local and is expected
t o be returned by March 2 5
from all other divisions, he said.
After the vote has been tabu
lated, the Joint council, repre
senting all locals, will decide
and follow a single course of
action, Baker explained. No an
nouncement of the voting will
be made prior to decision by the
council.
The disDule with the enmnanv
involves the interpretation of
the arbitration clause in the
contract between the union and
tne company. Baker said that
under the clause, which has
been unchanged for eight or 1 0
years, points of disagreement
had all been solved hnfnrp
single abitration board. Howev
er, at tne present time, he said,
the Union has seven nnints fnr
arbitration and the company in
sists that seven different boards
be called.
"The result," Baker added,
'would be tn financial! ruin
the union and we believe that
the sudden chance in ntpmro.
tation of the clause by the com
pany is a breach of contract and
justifies the strike authorization
vote.
