Is Youngster McLean, who is but 31 year of age 1 one of the best looking pros pects yet to be developed In this vicinity. He Is not only an exception ally good pitcher but can play any other position well and Is a very hard hitter, having hit for an average of 023 to date In league games.

Pelicans will not only be out for revenge today due to their de feat at the hands of the Rogues in a previous meeting, but they will be fighting to maintain their second place standing in the league and possible tie for first place should they succeed In beating the Rogues and Roaeburg beat the Coqutlle Loggers in their game at Rose burg. A three- game series will be played between the first and second place teams to determine the league championship Due to the cooler weather, a large turnout Is anticipated which will In clude many fans who have been go ing to the mountains and river re sorts to evade the heat of the past month, Celebrating the completion of the Red Cross swimming course, offered in the Table Rock district this year, for the first time, the classes will be presented in a colorful water carnival Tuesday night at Bybee bridge under direction of Mis Evelyn Hamilton, Instructor.

The game li sched uled for next Sunday, August 13th at the fairgrounds. The Oold Hitlers have won ' 23 games without a defeat and have been after Halght for a gams for some time. The reason for not scheduling the game before was due to the fact that the Rogues had a league schedule to complete and was not due to fear of defeat as was the belief of many Gold Hill fana, says Halght. More Interest Is Involved In thla game than any other scheduled to data this year, a number of fans having written and contacted Halght, urging blm to schedule the game. . Tourney Gossip FEW CAN EXECUTE Lea Wolfe, the "rolling scissors" ex pert from Texas, who went to a draw with Al Karaaick- last Thursday night, and who meets Ted Thye on next week's card, follows closely upon the style of Jim Browning, claimant to tha world's heavyweight title. As far aa la known, Wolfe and Browning are the only two heavies In the game with atrength enough In their legs to enable them to. execute the "roll ing aclssors." With Thye one of the leading llghta In the grunt and grimace game, and Wolfe able to make It uncomfortable for Karaslck, next week's card should even surpass the bouta of last week, according to Mack Llllard, promoter. Wolfe, aocordlng to fans, would have thrown Karaslck If the match had gone another few minutes. Billy Newman of Denver, 105, will meet Karaslck In ths first bout or the evening. The Wolfe-Thve bout will be the main event. PORTLAND! Aug, (.(API The First National bank of Portland has made application to open a branch at Sllverton. Marlon county. I, B.
