Many Injuries Ettlnger Is suffering from an In fected foot and was not in school yesterday. Earhart Is favoring a broken toe, snapped In scrimmage this week. Todd Is still complaining of a side Injury. To offset the gloomy angle Bay Lewis, universal-Jointed halfback out of the Alumni struggle because or a pulled muscle, has responded to treatment and last night raced through his ptays without a shadow of a limp. He will start the game, supplying the scoring punch locking In the earlier scuffle. In recent workout on the velvety turf field (which critics nave de clared without equal on the west coast) the kickers have been bomb ing out long twisting punts that have fired hopes of great defensive strength. Not only Olsen, who Is still receiving plaudit for a1 70-yara boot In the last game, but Maruysma and Bayllss have been booming out ST'.rsla fron: 45 to AO yards, tho most promising algn' that Couch Bower man has seen' to date.

Tills also applies to fish ing, camping and other recreational uses of the forest. To those, perhaps, who have looked forward to a hunting trip, this la disappointing, but there are other things to be considered. Those who live In Jackson and Klamath counties are probably not aa keenly aware of the potential destructlvenecs of a forest fire as are the people of Coos and Curry counties. However, the newspaper and the radio have given ua the picture cf what has happened and Is happening, and as a result. It Is not difficult to visualize what can happen in this locality. Weather conditions In thla territory were almost Identical with those on the coast, and while at times condi tions have Improved materially, there has been considerably less Improve ment In this territory. Accumulated dryness of tho forest cover stilt re mains, and Is, of course, more serious than during the summer months. Smoke drifting In from the fires Is seriously Interfering with the detec tion of firea by the lookouts. The humidity has remained as low as and even lower than summer levels. Con sequently, the extreme hazardous con dition still exists. As a result of a forest fire, every- j one experiences some loss. Approxi mately 61 per cent of forest fires are caused by man. Those all can be pre vented and everyone can aid mate rially In their reduction. Tills can be done by each Individual being care ful with the use of fire In the forest and by public opinion aligning against those who are careless with the use of fire In the forest Hotel Cornelius 5?3 g.VY Park Portland Feel at.

He Is also very much disgruntled. For years now the Lethal Latin has been led to suppose that his drop kick was the ultra-ultra in wrestling weapons, and his long string of victories by that route would indicate that there was some ground for the assumption. But Monday, before he had a chance to unltmber his own selge-gun feet, Gene Moore had landed a whistling heel to the Belcastro chops and the champion pin-wheeled through the ropes onto the floor. Belcastro never did see the kick that put the frost ing on him. He still has & vague suspicion that Referee Ray Frisble hit him with a hunk of water pipe when he wasn't looking. Of this much the Weed Avalanche Is certain nobody else is going to kick him. "Moore will think I'm a centipede, I'll kick him so often," the champion stated, adding that would come about If he ever met the kan garoo Moore again. The two are re matched on the main event at the Armory Monday. Pedro endeavoring to regain his lost prestige, and Moore hoping to continue hts winning streak. .In the middle event Joe Hubka, ex footballer from the University' of Ne braska, pits his talents against Les Wolfe of Texas. Wolfe has appar ently not yet made up his mind whether he Is going to be a meanie or not, but he has indicated that if he gets the right set-up he may take a few punches at Frisble, who dis qualified him in his match with Dude Chick last week. Fans are agreed that he had better not devoto too much time to the arbiter, for Hubka Is one of the most dangerous men In the game. In a grudge battle rematch, Prince Mlhalakls attempts to gain revenge for Monday's beating at the hands of the Georgia meanie. Billy Burns.
