FANDOM RANDOM Bv DICK APPLEOATB Word has been received from the University of Oregon at Eugene that of the 40 prospective football play ers now out for spring practice ses sion. Bob Hlnman of Med ford Is the most promising freshman. Hlnman, who graduated laat aprlng from the Medford high school, played regular end on the Prosh team laat fall, and waa rated the fastest lineman In school, either freshman or varalty. He carried on hla great record for paas snatching that he established In high school and In aeveral gamea waa Hated aa the most valuable man to his team. He now weighs over 300 and will undoubtedly see much action aa a varalty wlngman thla year. Bob Smith, great halfback from thla city who started at Oregon at mid year, la also a veritable cinch to nab a flrat string berth on the Proah eleven. Clifford "Red" Strom, fullbsck for the SONS of Ashland laat year, la a transfer to Oregon, and will be given a crack at the fullback post In aprlng session.

According to those who should know, the gresteat racing thrllla of all come on water, not the land. Kay Don, the noted British auto racer. takes to the aqua when he wants s real thrill. Major Seagrave, another Britisher who brought his Sunbeam racing car to Daytona Beach, Pla, to establish a new land apeed rec ord, finally decided he'd rather have the water course record then held by Oar Wood of America, and was well on his way toward grabbing It when a sunken log ripped the bot tom out of his racing hull at close to 100 miles an hour at a trial at Lake Windermere, England. Seagrave was killed. Sir Malcolm Campbell, who holda the land apeed record of more than 300 mllea per hour, haa also taken an occasions! fling at the water rec ord. Oar Wood, the grand old man or American speed boating, sticks to his boats and now holda the official and unofficial world'a record for un limited hydro-planea, 134.88 a.m.p.h. set st Algonao, Michigan, In 18.13. Wood'a record waa, of courae, made with an Inboard motor. In fact there were two motors, X-type Psckarda. The outboard record, as far aa we can determine Is 81.780 m p h.. set In a class r hull at Cedar Lake, In diana, In 1033, by O. Coleman, Jr'. of Miami, Oklahoma. For sheer thrills the skittering. leaping outboarda are supposed to shade sny of the Inboard craft. In the flrat plaoe the outboard hulls are uaually tiny thlnga, weighing less than one of the motora In tne big boats. Negotiating a turn In one of the things at 40 miles an hour la equivalent to coming down off Rosy Ann at 80 In a car, with juat about as much danger. Smacking water at high apeed lan't much easier on the hide than crashing Into the ground, and If one hits the around and Uvea through the experience, he won't drown. t least. In 1033. when the last races wero held on Emigrant lake aouth of Ash land, all three hydroplane aventa were won by one man, Ward Angll ley of Maryavllle, Calif. Angllley will be here for the races Easter Sunday, primed to repeat hla phenomenal performance. Fi SKEPTICS BY TAKING CHAMPIONS FOR RIDE Bt the AwodatM Press.

The total sale of atgs last year waa slightly higher than to date this year, with good weather adding greatly to the early season intereat. Prospects of a larger take of fish during the approaching aeason seem good, however, with most observers foreseeing a heavy Increase In the number of fish In the Rogue river end tributary atreams. The lakes of the vicinity were not good Isst year, and, although It la hoped that Pish Lake, Lake o' the Woods and Diamond Lake will be better thla ear, It Is too early in the season to definitely say at the pres ent time. A trip to Fish lake Involves a trek of seven or eight miles, whereas st the same time isst year the Journey could be negotiated largely by ma chine, and consequently opening day Is not expected to produce a hesvy Influx to that region.

(UP) The last cf Jerusalem's famous fleet of ram shackle open horse-drawn cabs his been relegated to the Junk heap. In their place modern tax (cabs will convey the cltzens of Jerusalem and visitors up and down the precipitous slopes of the Holy City. Practically every visitor to Jeru salem used to take at least one drive In one of these horse-cabs, or "ghar ries." They seemed aa typical a part of the Jerusalem scene as gondolas In Venice or rickshas In Shanghai. Unfortunately for the cab drivers, however, the steep city streets re cently were asphalted for the neneflt of automobile traffic. Aa a result. the cab horses continual!; slipped and fell. The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals intervened and made representations to the govern ment, resulting In the withdrawal of horsfv drawn cabs frdm the streets. Incidentally, the change-over start ed a minor racket In cab licenses. The government planned to Issue a taxicab license to every previous holi er of a gharry license. The transfer value of one of these licenses In the open market stands at present at about 9600. Some sharp wit ted automobile agents obtained advance Information on the government's intentions and Immediately bought up all horse-crb licenses they could find. Their Idva was to "be in on the ground floor" when the new taxi licenses were Issu ed. They may discover, however, that the government has a defense plan, PORTLAND AUTO RACING SEASON OPENS APRIL 12 PORTLAND, April 2.

PECK AND PETE TO MONDAY'S LINEUP Wrestling fana who prefer their grappling clean, fast and clever, have a clean sweep of their favorite dish next week, according to the an nouncement of the lineup made today by Promoter Mack Llllard. Prank le Peck, rugged San Francisco grappler who last week lost a har-J fought match to Pacific coast Junior heavyweight wrestling champion Pate Belcastro when the big Italian con nected with a trip-hammer kick to Peck's Jaw, haa issued & challenge for a rematch with the clever coast king. In his plea to Promoter Llllard for another bout, peck admitted that Bel castro defeated him fairly Mondav night, but expressed the belief that he could not repeat the performance "I wasn't expecting that kick. That Is no excuse for getting licked, ol course, since Belcastro isn't supposed to let me know what he's planning on doing, but I'd like to meet him again I think that if my headlocks hadn t slipped off because Belcastro's head waa soaking wet at the start of she second fall, I'd have had him. (Bel castro's second had poured a bucket of water over his head to revive mm after Peck had taken the first tum ble with viselike headlocks.) After making arrangement with the Los Angeles booking office, Lll lard agreed to the return bout. whlh will be the main event on next weed's card. Belcastro has agreed to the match, but has refused to stake hlfi title belt.
