New Manager Acquires
Flock Of Talent Three
Experienced Hurlers Re
quired Round Out Staff.

BAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 35. (AP)
The Portland Beavers may prova a
surprise In the 1035 Coast league pen'
Bant race as the climax of a "new
deal" that has turned the club Inside
out.
Talkative Tom Turner haa gone on
bis way with a pocltettul of money
that formerly belonged to E. J. Schef
ter. new owner. Schefter'e first move
was to Install Buddy Ryan as man
ager. Ryan, who managed Sacra
mento for many yeara, knowa bis
baseball.
The new combine already has given
evidence of Intent to develop a real
team. At this time they hava the
backbone of a fair looking club. Addi
tional material la needed to make It
a, threat to the leaders.
Money Being Spent
With Schetter's money flowlnc
somewhat freely, Manager Ryan has
acquired "Jumbo" Jim Elliott, who
did a big league stretch after gradu
ating from Seattle and still la sn ef
fective pitcher; Bill Cronln, catcher,
who served a hitch with Los Angeles
a few yeara ago; Chalmer Clasell and
Harry Davis, clever first basemen.
Not many years ago Clsaell's sale to
the major brought Fortland an esti
mated 1125,000. He comes back to
bis old stamping ground by trade.
These newcomers, given some help,
may restore the Beavers to their for
mer high standing. Besides Elliott
the pitching stsff has Ed Bryan, Hnl
Turpln aad Hank Ullrich for regulars.
Recruit moundsmen Include Ted
Brady, Ouerney Jonea and Neal Mon
tank. all from Los Angeles; Bob
Hnutchens, from Portland, and Ralph
(Sutherland, a La Crescents, Cel., boy.
At leaat three experienced hurlers are
required to round out the staff.
The catching crop sines up strong
with Cronln, Prank Cox and Harold
Soerr already proven, and youngsters
James Lyke and Verne Richards.
Ryan thinks he has a find In Rich
ards, a Portland youth.
Infield All Set
The Infield appears to be set with
Davis at first, Clssell at second, Ches
ter Wllburn at short and OH English
at third. Davis comes from the De
troit Tigers. He played with Toledo
last year and hit around .330. Clsssll
played quite a bit of second base for
the Red Sox last season. Wllburn
and English are holdovers.
The coscorat boys, Pete and Steve,
will be at training camp. Theae
youngsters, Inflelders. undoubtedly
lrtlt develop Into real plsyors but are
a trifle Inexperienced and hardly rate
with the regulars st this time.
Rysn's outfield will Include Oeorge
Blackerby, Tony Bongtovanl, "Moose"
Claybaugh and Rookie BUI Bvlllch
from Sacramento. Help Is needed In
this department. There Is talk a deal
Is under way for the purchase of
Bchulmerlch from Toronto of the In
ternational league, Schulmerlch, for
mer Oregon State college athlet who
started his professional career with
Los Angeles snd grsduated to the ma
jors, la still a capable player. His
acquisition would round out a hard
hitting outfield for the Beavers.
TO FACE HEALY
The appearance of "Chief" Btrong
bow, behemoth Shawnee Indian
wrestler. In one of the matches of
this week's double main vent grap
pling card, li stirring up considerable
interest among grunt and grimace
Jans. The 375-pound redskin will tus
ale with Jimmy Healy, pugnacious
San Pranctscon. and promises him a
thorough scalping.
Strong bow haa been disqualified
three times In a row In Portland
matches for unnecessary roughnoss
and fouls. He uses queer Indian holds
such as the "dathtork" and the
"paralyzer." that mnke him one of
the most dangerous of the man
mountain grnpplers.
In the second half of the program.
Masked Marvel, the mystery man. will
tangle with hlg pon Wagner, ex-football

Here Is one group of baseball play

to prove that their effectiveness has
not been Impaired.
The veteran "Rabbit" Maranvllle,
refusing to be relegated to the

Late laat March MnranvlUe's leg

The bone failed to mend properly and

One refugee has become Insane.
Others wander through the refugee

A Saarlander chauffeur, who said
his former employer had threatened

France has told the League that
the task of caring for these emigres

(ielbert Determined to Play
Charlie Oelbert, former Cardinal
shortstop, has steadfaatly refused to
admit that the accidental discharge
of a ahotgun ended his playing ca
reer when It tore the mucles of his
left leg. His persistent efforts, after
several operations, have resulted In
such Improvements, his physicians
said, that there Is an excellent chance
that he will be able to play bal this
season,
Oelbert hss been signed by the Car
dinals snd will try to prove his worth.
Quite a Job he has cut out for him
self, trying to regain a place on the
team which won the world's cham
pionship In such dramatic fashion
last fall.
Tho New York Yankees have three
"crlpplea" to look over at St. Petera
burg Earl Combs, Bill Dickey and
Dixie Walker.
The gray-haired Combs was near
lng the end of hla big league days
when he crashed Into the wall In St.
Louis snd seriously Injured himself.
For many days after the crash his
very Ufa was despaired of, the ques
tion of playing ball again seemed too
remote to evon consider. Bu time
and proper attention hava worked
wonders for this popular outfielder,
and today, to all outward appear
ances, he looks ready to pick up tha
the plebiscite. Many of them may
yet be used before the Saar reverts
to aeremany on March 1.
France, however, haa admitted only
bona-flde s&arlanders with good rec
ords and good excuses for fleeing
naeldom. Turned back are suspected
criminals, German anti-hazls. Includ
ing Jews, who fled Into the Saar when
Hitler attained power, and former
Rhlneland separatists who left Ger
many when their movement failed In
1923.
Preference has been given S&ar
landers who had applied for French
citizenship or sent their children to
French schools In the Saar, thus In
curring nasi wrath.
After having trudged the snow
packed frontier roads to Frobach and
Snaregucmlnes, lugging suitcases or
sacks of meager possessions, the ac
cepted refugees are started south
ward on the hard wooden seats of
third-class railroad cars within 24
hours, to avoid any congestion of
frontier posts.
War days, when frontier towns
were evacuated ahead of the advanc
ing German army, are recalled as
the fugitives are given hot choco
late, soup and sandwiches at Red
Cross canteens.
No Tarrying At Border
Most of them would rather have
remained In Lorraine or Alsace, where
German la spoken.
But France has a policy of keep
ing political refugees away from fron
tiers to avoid espionage, agitation,
propaganda and border Incidents.
Hence all but those who have rela
tive In France with whom to live
are sent to Toulouse or Montauban
and from there scattered. In groups
of 30 to 300. among nearby towns.
Employment is virtually dented
the refugees, for aside from their ig
norance of French, they must cope
with the regulation that foreigners
may hold only those Jobs for which
no French xinemployed are available
With more than 400.000 Frenchmen
on the unemployment dole, work is
scarce.
"The future of these poor people
certatnly la not enviable, although
we are doing everything possible to
soften the hardship of their exile."
said a French official.
"Having left everything behind
them, they must endure a life simi
lar to that of a soldier In camp.

TO CLASH TONIGHT
ASHLAND. Feb. 35. (Spl) Two
of the northwest's most deadly ath
letlc rivals will meet for the first
time In two yeara when Howard
Hobson's Denver bound SONS bss-
Icetbsll team tangles with the Wolves
of Oregon Normal from Monmouth
In Ashlsnd's Junior high gym to
night and tomorrow night with
both games being called for 8:15
o'clock.
Lsst meeting of the two normal
schools wss in 1S35 when the
SONS, led by Wlllard Jones, Bud
Jones. Cliff McLean and Ward
Howell and Dick Jochlsch, trounced
the Wolves twice In Ashland after
losing a twin series at Monmouth.
Now, the Jones boys are members
of the University of Oregon quintet
but Howell, McLesn and Jocklscb
will be playing agalnat their old
rivals and attempting to revenge
the 7-8 football defeat of last fall.
Monmouth's roster resds like a
who's who of former Oregon All
State men. At the two forward
spots will be Bud Averlll and Herb
Ystad, both former members of a
couple of Astoria high state champ
ionship outfits and both all-state
men. Two flashes from Indiana
hold down the center and one
guard position, James Butterworth
and Ray Osborne respectively, and
both were all-state players In In
diana high schools. Butterworth Is
a huge fellow, standing six feet,
five Inches tall, and has run wild
all year to become the greatest
center In Mmmouth history. A bat
tle royal la expected when he and
the gigantic Howell tangle for the
first time.
Probably the outstanding player
on the Monmouth team,, however.
Is John Kelly. For two yeara Kelly
wasi named on the all-atate team
at, Salem In the tournament and
In 1933 was placed at captain and
called the most valuable man In
the tourney. He Is from Salem hlsh
and Is a player of the Cliff McLean
type; fast as a flash, a good drib
bler and an exceptional ball hawk.
Against that team, which has
scored victories over most of the
state's best teams, Hobson expects
to start the same lineup thst hss
hung up a record of 18 wins in
21 games: Howell at center, Mc
Lean and Patterson st forwards snd
uourtney and Jocklsch at the guard
positions.

HOW many times you see those two words in the course of a
day's shopping: "This article for sale "as advertised."
And those two words are as welcome as they are familiar,
for they form a bond of confidence between the merchant and
yourself. They are his guarantee to you of worth and value.
Here is an article that has been described in your newspaper.
Its merits have been told; possibly, too, its price. You know
exactly what you will get when you buy it. You know its quality,
its utility; you know how it fits into your need3. And when you
buy it, you know you are getting not some unproved substitute
but the specified article as represented.
It is easy to understand why that phrase, "as advertised,"
creates a feeling of confidence. You have learned to depend upon
consistently advertised products. You know that the maker has
confidence in them, else he would not spend money calling your
attention to them day after day, and month after month. You
know that they have been approved by the most critical of inves
tigatorsthe buying public. And above all you know from ex
perience that buying goods "as adertised" is the best investment
you can make.

LONDON (AP) Whether or not T.
O. M- Sopwlth decides to have an
other fling at the Amerlca'a cup with
his Endeavor In 1936, there Is pretty
certain to be a challenge from this
side.
Charles R. Falrey. one of Englsnd's
best known yachtmen and owner of
Thomas Llpton's lsst challenger, the
Shamrock V, admitted to The Asso
ciated Preas that he has been giving
tne matter "serious thought."
It all depends, probably, on wheth
er Sopwlth, one of Falrey's closest
friends, decides to try again. Since
he returned from last summer's vsln
attempt to lift the cup. all hot and
agitated, Sopwlth has given no Indi
cation of hla future plans.
"Of course I hsve given It serious
thought." Falrey said. "I suppose
every yachtsman In England has. but
that's as far as It has gone. At any
rate. I shall make no serious plsns
until Mr. Sopwlth has Indicated his
Intentions. He has the priority."
Falrey, who, like Sopwlth, Is the
head of a large aircraft manufactur-
lng corporation bearing his noma. Is
preparing to race the Shamrock
against such famous yachts as the
Endeavour, the American Yankee and
the King'a Britannia In British wat
ers this summer. He has no Inten
tions, however, of challenging for the
cup with the Shamrock.
"No fear." he laughed (which Is
British for "not a chsnce"). "If It
couldn't win for LIpton, I have no
reason to believe it would win for
me. No, I would build a new chal
lenger." If It does come about that Falrey
challenges, there Is no danger of hla
showing up In American waters with
an amateur crew or with a profes
sional crew that doesn't know Its
business. He has signed on the finest
crew of veteran professionals he
could find to handle the Shamrock
this summer and Intends to keep
them together as a unit In the event
he builds an America's cup racer.
Falrey, at 48, is president of the
Royal Aeronautical society and mem
ber of the Royal London Vacht club.
