EOF ON 70TH BIRTHDAY TELL-TALE SERIES QUICK DEATH FOR vAv'.: - CHICAGO, Aug. 18. (,U) Amos Alonzo Stagg, dean ox America's root- hall coachea, celebrates bla 70th birthday today, hale, hearty and happy the moat engaging figure In ' the game. The grand old man of the midway, now working at a movie lot at Loa Angeles aa technical adviser to a gridiron thriller, will return to the University of Chicago next week to develop his forty-first Maroon team, which, advance reports Indicate, may be the thriller or the 1633 western conference season. The tide Is due to turn. Stagg believes, after years of defeats. Despite his 70 years, Stagg's face, tanned and seared by the lite that haa been rugged and clean, la not wrinkled, nor drawn, nor old. His body Is vibrant and tough, Just ss though It was when he made "end ruah" on Walter Camp's first alt- American team back in 1889, pitcnea Tale to five successful baseball .championships, lived on bread and milk, and spent his night hours studying for the Presbyterian min istry. Stagg's thatch of hair Is aa black as tt Is gray, . His dally tennis game Is as fast and seriously plsyed as It waa 30 years ago. The man who flrat thought of using the forward pass, the fake pass, and the triple pass, looks no older than 60 yeara. He la a marvel or physical fitness, capable today of undertaking exercises that would make an ordinary individual weary. "Thar In an agitation In Grants Psss and Medrord to have a three day fishing license for transients, as . a method of promoting the tourist trade. The idea la that If a license can be obtained for three days at a nominal fee, tourist will remain three days on' a stream and then when they move on to another county they can take out another temporary li cense, the license to be good only In the county where It Is Issued," re port Alexander O. Brown of Portland, who returned to Portland yesterday after a awing through the southeast ern part of the state. "Tourists do net care to buy a license for a year whan they are hurrying through the atate, but It Is argued that a tempo rary license would be an Inducement, and keep them longer." Mr. Brown ays that foreign cara are penetrating sections heretofore avoided. In Lake view, foreign car are becoming com mon, the .Yellowstone cut-off, the road to Bend and Klamath Falls cause tourists to swing Into Lakevlew, a town that only a short time ago never saw a car with an out-state license. The reault of this new de velopment Is that Lakevlew I pre senting a lively appearance. Nebraska, Illinois and Kansas cars, while not aa numerous as those bearing California plates, are not infrequently seen. The sheepmen of Lake county, says Mr. Brown, an wondering what la going to happen to that Industry, but ex press the opinion that It will Improve, Oregonlan. i OF ROYAL LADIES CANNES. France, Aug.

Oregory, Portland Oregonlan port writer, has the following to say regarding Prink Calllson, former Medford high school football coach. and Bill Morgan, ex -grid star of the same school: If Prink OalllsoB is half aa tough a taskmaster aj Doe Spears used to be, I foresee considerable grief about a month from now for big Bill Mor gan, captain of the University of Oregon football team. Bill haa grown aa big aa a mountain this summer. Whew I The young man weighs all of 336 pounds, on about a 300-pound chassis when In the pink that means at least 80 pounds to aweat off In the first couple of weeks of football. Doc would get It off Jf he had to swing an ax to supplement the ordinary conditioning methods, and I've never heard Prink mentioned aa tender hearted In that respect, either. BUI has a big sweat ..coming. BUI haa a good cxcum for Ms 335 pounds, however. For the last couple of years BUI and the doctors have gone into consultation every few months relative to pains In the young fellow's tummy. BUI was subject to spells of stomachache. Finally, this summer the doctors shoved a stomach pump down Bill's throat and put him flat In bed aa treatment for possible stomach ulcer. The remainder of the treatment con sisted In feeding BUI a diet of rich cream and other soothing foods. After two weeks of this dieting BUI made the scales shiver. Now the doctors say maybe BUI didn't have ulcere after all. hut that perhaps It waa Just nervousness. Anyway, for a gent subject either to real ulcere or only to possible ones. BUI Is disgustingly healthy and fat. Realising fully the ordeal he faces when Prink Calllson geta a glimpse of his present unholstered frame, Bill la smirt enough to beat Prink to It aa much aa he can. He already has staked out a Job In his old home town of Med ford, working In a pear packing plant. Bill's duties there will eonalat principally of lugging around hoavy boxes of pears about IB hours a day. The more weight he sweats off while toting pear boxes, the leas he will have to perspire off on the sawdust under Prlnk'a angry glare. BUI had a mighty narrow escape two weeka ago In Seattle from being crippled so that he could never play football again. He got a Job loading trucks on the Luckenbach dock. He waa walking along a plank from the warehouse platform to a truck, carrying a cou-1 pie of caea weighing about ISO pounds, when the plank broke BUI waa too heavy. In falling, his left elbow hit a steel spike, which punch ed a hole in it. BUI saw a whlt. stringy-looking thing hanging from the wound. It acared him Just enough ao that he niahed to a doctor to have It dressed. He hurried the faster becaxise all feeling had departed from his left forearm and hand. Lucky he did. The doctor found the nerve com pletely severed had BUI waited a couple of daya It would have been too late, but prompt splicing saved the nerve, and now the arm la as good again aa ever. Tho football outlook at Oregon to much brighter than It seemed laet aprlng. BUI la quite optimistic over the chances of the team he will cap tain. Now thera Isn't much doubt that virtually all the youngsters of that smaahtng freshman team will be Tishlng- Lore and Instruction By Toggery Bill back, trying for places on the var sity. The lads couldnt get Into Wiscon sin because the "Big Ten" wouldn't let them. Minnesota and other col leges of the "Big Ten" are strenu ously trying to persuade some of them to forsake their Oregon alleg iance, but there Isn't much chance. Is fact, Doc Spear himself won't let them, so It's almost certain that they will all be back. This Includes Pep e in Jack, the stocky, brisk halfback; huge Stan Kostka, who got append l cltt a month ago, but Is tough enough to play anyway, at either half or full; Roy Gagnon, a sweet 300-pound guard, who la playing handball four hours a day to keep in shape; Mike Mlkulak, who already baa won his spurs at fullback, and all the others, or most of them, any how. BUI Morgan better get that weight down, for he will have plenty of com petition at left tackle, despite his captaincy. One of the young and coming lads he must beat la Alex Eagle, 330-pound behemoth. Another Is Gardner Frye, SOS, who lifts heavy welghta for fun and tosses the shot 48 feet. BUI likes competition, how ever. The more the merrier. Is .his football motto.
