SPORTS • Spot with je « M c M ahon Sports Editor Coquille high school's victory- blooded Red Devils will be ham pered with a few Injuries when they meet the Roseburg Indians in the first league game of the young grid season at Roseburg Friday night. The Coquille gridders have two wins and no defeats as they meet the highly touted Indians who thumped Springfield by o touchdown last week-end. The Red Devils came out of their first encounter with the Myrtle Point Bobcats without an ailing ankle, but the wet Ashland play mg surface plus one Jerry Langer, rated the hardest running back in southern Oregon, raised havoc with the Red Devil defense. Coach Spike Leslie is nursing along his boys this week and hopes the bruises will be healed by whistle time Friday. If not Leslie wishes to withhold the names of the injured in order to let the Indians'find the key to a perfect offense. » This week the Red Devils have been strengthening their defense to cope with the hard-running Cohn of the Indians' backfield. This boy is rated high on the list of District Three grid greats and to stop Roseburg it is necessary to stop Cohn. The Indians are also rated to be a hard passing team and are re puted to gain much ground via the airways. Coquille may equal them in this field due to the e f forts of Larry Schweinfurt and Gerard Jeub, the pass combination that clicked twice for touchdowns at Ash'and last week. . The veteran Coquille mentor announced a tentative starting lineup of Bob Pingleton at cen ter, Bob Groves at a guard spot; Len Scolari and Don Laird at tackle; Lynn Purvis plus Larry Schweinfurt at the wing births.

These county permits are in addition to the regular state hunting license which must be shown before the county permit will be issued. No attempt it being made to restrict the hunting on the forests. The hunting permits are being issued in the interests of protect ing the stock of the persons who have grazing leases on the forests and to keep a record of persons using the forest in the event of fire. Both forests have young trees growing on them that would be killed by any kind of fire and there is little possibility of a nat ural reseeding of the burned area as the mature trees have been logged. In several areas hand planting has already been neces sary where natural reseeding has failed. The Coos county forests were established to grow timber. This timber when mature will be sold and the revenue will be distri buted to the various school, port and other taxing units of the county and- wiH - materially de crease the amount of money that would have been raised by tax ation.
