Valley Men Find Goose Hunting In Canada Good "Be prepared for the best duck and goose hunting in years," says John Glaser of Tan gent and Stan Olsen of Inde pendence, who have returned from a goose hunting trip in northern Alberta, Canada. Geese and ducks in that area are so numerous that they are in many instances becoming a serious menace to the wheat crops. Great numbers of the birds will take off from the" numerous small lakes and potholes in the area every morning and even ing and light in the surrounding wheat fields where the wheat has been cut and lays in wind rows but as yet has not been threshed. Because of shortage of help, insufficient modern machinery and adverse weather conditions it may not be threshed until next spring. Hunting pressure has been alight, duck hunting practically nil, except for a few who go out in the evening to shoot the birds as they come into the fields to feed (this is allowed and with in the law in Canada). Many farmers want the migra tory birds taken off the protect ed list for they fear greater dam age to be done as the migration gets under way from the north Peace river country.

Little Beaver will team ap with Tuffy McCrea In a tag match against Tom Thumb and Fuzzy Smith. Thumb, at 95 pounds, is the heaviest of the Jot. The midget match is a spe cial added attraction to a card which in Itself should be a crowd pleaser. Tony Ross and F.rio (The Perfect One) Pederson clash in the main event. Ross and Pederson didn't act exactly friendly to each other during last week's battle royal, and the fur should fly tonight.

LOCAL UNITED PRESS Page 10 Bearcats to Meet Lewis And Clark in Portland A hard-luck Willamette uni versity football squad Monday opened preparations for its Northwest Conference encounter with the Lewis and Clark Pio neers in Portland next Satur day at 2 o'clock. Still stingingly fresh in the minds of Coach Ted Ogdahl and his men is the slim 27-26 victory uie niniy lavoreu rMiruir "tin- gers racked over them at Forest Grove Friday night. It was inc second straight one-point set back for the Ogdahl club, the Methodists having bowed to Ida ho 7-6 two weeks ago. The pesky matter of conver sion kicks also deprived the WU club of a possible win over Col lege of Puget Sound three weeks ago. That one ended 20-20. So it's obvious that Og- Mighty Mifes T m Thumb (left) and Little Reaver (above) will be on opposite Ides in a midget tag team match at the Salem armory tonight. None of the four midgets to appear in the match weighs over (S pounds. it'll be Lou Macera of Quebec facing Jack Brltton of Detroit.

M I 7 ztft ASSOCIATED PRESS Salem, Oregon, Tuesday, October 21, 1952 dahl will be giving his place ment kickers, Benny Holt and Johnny Kent, plenty ef drilling this week. The Bearcat coach expressed satisfaction over the way his men performed against a Badger club that was supposed to be Oregon Ducks . , FOC AAOntCnO Face Montana In Eugene Game University of Oregon, Eugene Coach Len Casanova and his Oregon Ducks take a breather from Coast conference competi tion Saturday when they enter tain the Montana university Griz zlies at Hayward field. The con test marks the initial appearance of the season for the Webfoots on the Eugene gridiron. Skippered by Coach Ed Chin ske, the Grizzlies invade the Ducks' pond with many of the same performers from the 19S0 squad. The Ducks dropped Mon tana, 21-13, that year. In fact the Grizzlies have never taken the measure of an Oregon, squad. In five games the Webfoots have merged on the long end of the score. Top man in the Montana at tack is quarterback M u r d o Campbell, a slick ball handler and a top man on defense. Camp bell is only a sophomore but Coach Chinske thinks he will be Montana's greatest T-quarter- back. The Grizzlies are primarily a running team with most of the ground power supplied by full back Bob Dantic and hallfback Dean Brott. Dantic is currently lugging the ball at a 7-yards- per-carry clip. Brott has carried for 6 yards every time he gets his hands on the pigskin. Half backs Gene Carlson and Bo Laird, veterans of the '50 game, also do plenty of ball packing, averaging 4 yards a try. Realizing the Grizzlies are getting lean from want of a win, the Ducks aren't regarding the contest lightly. Oregon will prob ably give Montana a taste of its high-geared passing attack. The Ducks have two of the top pass ers on the coast In George Shaw and Hal Dunham. Shaw set a Coast conference record for passes and completions against California and figures to try and better his mark against the lads from the eopper country At one time there were about 13,000 men named John Smith on the U.S. veterans' adminis tration rolls.

Back at Seattle Seattle OP) Johnny and Ed die O'Brien, back for their last year of college basketball, head ed the 17-man Seattle univers ity squad which reported to Coach Al Brightman Monday. Most attention locussed on Johnny O'Brien who broke the national single-season scoring record last spring. The Chieftains' rugged sched ule includes games with Wyom ing, New York University, Georgetown, and St. Joseph's of Philadelphia. NEWS AND FEATURES two touchdowns better than the Methodists. The Willamettes displayed ability to put together sustained drives in getting their four touchdowns. The last two Pacific scores came the spectacular route Gerald Millis running back a third-quarter kickoff for 97 yards and a touchdown and Frank Buckiewicz, the fine PU star, zipping 80 yards in the fi nal period. The big break of the ball game might have been the Pa cific recovery of a WU fum ble on the Bearcat 20 early in the third quarter. That set up the second Bearcat six pointer. The passing of Benny Holt, the receiving of Bob Platenberg and the running of Chuck Lewis, Lou Lofland and Tex Kerken dall all played a big part in the Willamette offensive effort. Ogdahl reports that the Bear cats got out of the Pacific tus sle minus any serious injuries.

Ez Charles Meets Cesar Brion Friday By GAYLE TALBOT New York, (IP) Ezzard Char les the cautious pugilist starts up the long comeback trail this coming Friday night when he fights Cesar Brion, a big, awkward galoot from Argentine, at Madison Square Garden. Ezzard figures to win this one without too much trouble. Al most everyone over voting age has beaten Brion at one time or another. But m Ezzard's par ticular case, a simple victory will not be enough, and he knows it. If the former heavy weight champion is to become one of the foremost contenders for Rocky Marciano's title, he must win this one impressively, preferably by a knockout. The situation really is a very peculiar one. The Cincinnati Negro has proved on occasion that he comes close to being great lighter. Acually, he won the crown back from Jersey Joe Walcott in their last meeting at Philadelphia as several million televiewers oan testify. Just about the only ones who didn't think Ezzard deserved the de cision were the officials who vote. And now, such a short time later, Charles finds himself on the outer fringe, strivig desper ately to get back in the running. A purely personal hunch here is that no matter what he does, Ezzard will never get a shot at Marciano. On a given night, Ezzard might cut Rocky into ribbons. The men who guide the new champion's destinies are among the smartest in the busi- ness. They will make few mis- takes. OlP QUAKU 0ISTIUIN9 OMAN, UWIINCIIUtO, INDIANA Principal bit of business at hand will be the election of the five men who will serve as members of the board of directors for the coming year, Ben Pade and Tom Holman, current members of the board, have indicated that they will be glad to continue in their present positions, and judging from the fine work these two men have done in the past year, their re election seems inevitable.
