' Billy Hulen Says:
Coaching Suf f
Undergo Shakeup
In Loop Schools
Huskies Top Favorites to Cop 'Keepsie Race Wednesday
Unless the unexpected hap
.pens and Bill Bowerman, a re
serve officer, la called up for
active duty, Medford high will
be -the lone Southern Oregon
conference school to start the
-41-42 athletic year with the
same coaching sUff as that
.which operated during tha past
season.
All the other Institutions In
the loop, Klamath Falls, Grants
Tass and Ashland, have had
their mentoring staffs shaken
up, the latest change being at
Rnnta Pass where George Hlb-
basketball tutor for the
past five years, resigned his
post to accept a similar berth at
Portland's Jefferson high.
. Succeeding Hlbbard will be
! Arnold Bernard, who taught In
the Grants Pass high school the
past year after coaching prep
basketball for four seasons In
North Dakota. Bernard appar
iently has quite a reputation as
1 a cage coach, having lanen one
of his teams to the state tourna
ment finals.
Grants Pass, In fact, will op
en the 1941-42 season with an
entirely new head-coaching
staff. George Erickson, assistant
football mentor last season, has
been appointed top man follow
lnsr the calling Into active serv
ice of Lieut. Loren Tuttle, a re
serve officer.
Klamath Falls will still
have Dwlght French on hand
to teach the lads basketball,
but will have a naw head
grid coach In Frank Ramsey,
who moved up to fill the spot
made vacant when Arthur
(Snowy) Guataison, reserve
officer, was called up for ac
tive duty. At Ashland. Jerry
Oastineau will again do the
basketball coaching, but
Lelghtea Blake, football
coach, has resigned .to accept
another position.
Medford, unless Bowerman Is
called up or Russ Acheson, bas
ketball tutor, takes another Job,
will start next season with Its
coaching 'staff Intact, The others
are Ed Klrtley, assistant grid
mentor and Alex McDonald,
baseball bead man.

The beauty of a young ball
player Is that he never quits
hustling and trying; he goes af
ter everything In sight, and al
though he might boot one, per
haps an easy one, a play or so
later he Is Jiable to come up
with something that Jerks you
right out of your seat
A nice example of this youth
ful bustle was seen Saturday
night when the Craters beat Eu
gene 6,-3. In the second Inning
Bob Churchill, the Crater's rifle
armed third sacker, raced to his
left to field Wiltshire's easy hop
per, and kicked It. The ball, It
appeared, actually belonged to
Shortstop Del Schroer.
Undismayed by this error,
Churchill pulled a honey on
the very next ball hit. Joe
Spencer smashed a sissler
that appeared bound tor a
single Into left Held, but
Church took two quick steps
to his left stabbed the ball
with his gloved hand and
started a fast double play via
Volk at second.

WV-Since the day in April
when his varsity crew beat
California In a record-breaking
three-mile race. Coach Al Ul
brlckson's University of Wash
ington Huskies have been on the
spot.
Though tomorrow's intercolle
giate regatta then was more
than two months away, the
Huskies promptly were made
favorites to repeat their 1940
Hudson river victory.
"It's unfortunate, but I've giv
en up trying to talk people out
of It," Ulbrlckson said today.
'They forget a lot can happen
In two months and this time it
did."
What happened, chiefly, was
that the Washington! lost their
edge, and didn't have proper
weather conditions to regain it
Ulbrlckson, therefore, feels that
right now they are nowhere
near the class they were In
April.
Credit to Boys
"When we started this crew
season, we didn't expect a
thing," he explained. "We had
only three holdovers from the
1940 varsity Ted Garhart at
stroke, Charles Jackson at No. S
and the bow man, six-foot-seven
John Bracken. But the boys,
with a great display of will
power, went out on their own
to whip themselves Into a crew.
They did a great Job. Against
California they were as fine as
any eight I've ever seen. They
didn't miss or muff anything
from start to finish. But after
hitting that peak they apparent
ly decided they were a crew.
and could get it back any time
I think they've been finding
out here that's easier lost than
re-won."
It still Is a powerful crew
more powerful, the coach Is
sure, even than his 1938 Olym
pic champions. But they lack
that boat's polish. He doesn't
say they won't win, but he
doesn't think, either, they're the
sure-shots everyone is making
them.
Of the eight shells which will
line up against his varsity at
2:43 p. m. (PST) tomorrow, Ul
brlckson has the most regard
for California, his neighbor on
boathouse row.
West Not Threatened
The other seven starters look
like one great muddle. Cornell,
Syracuse, Columbia, new-comer
Rutgers, Princeton, with style
but perhaps without stamina,
M. I. T. and even lightweight
Wisconsin all figure to beat
somebody across the finish line
at the end of the four miles.
Not one of them, though, has
the stamp of a real threat to
the west.
American and Coast league
standings unchanged.

IN QUALIFY ROUNDS;
77
FAT FREDDIE IN
By Gall Fowler
Spokane, June 24. (IP) Big
names were a dime a dozen, but
a couple of unsung Spokaneites
elbowed to the front yesterday
In the opening day of the Paci
fic northwest men's and women's
amateur golf tourneys.
Marsh Hammond, who Sunday
won the city's municipal title,
tied for medalist honors at the
halfway mark of the 30-hole
qualifying round with a 70
sharing top billing with Louis
Jennings of Portland, one of
Oregon's top golfers. Par Is
38-3872.
Betty Jean Ruckner, husky
18-year-old high school girl
whose father, Mahlon Rucker, is
president of the P. N. G. A.,
made her dad beam by shooting
a 79 for medal honors in the
women's 18-hole qualifier.
In so doing, Betty Jean nosed
out none other than Betty Jame
son of San Antonio, Tex., the
national women's champion. Miss
jHmeson took an 80.
The men, meanwhile, were
shooting at Hammond and Jen
nings on their final 18 holes of
qualifying for the match play
which begins Wednesday for the
32 low scorers over the 36-hole
route.
The three gallery gods. Bud
Ward, former national amateur
champion, Blng Crosby, the
boop-a-dooper from Hollywood
who is bark In his old home
town here for the tourney, and
Ken Black, the Canadian ama
teur champion from Vancouver,
B. C, will have to step on it
today If they hope to overhaul
the leaders. But it looks like a
hopeless task.
Ward turned In a 78; Crosby
a 77, and Black 80.
NEW II" PLAN
FOR BUSH TEAMS
LICKS Pin, 9 TO 4
By Gayle Talbot
(Associated Press Writer)
What might prove one of the
most significant victories of the
National league race was scored
by fat Freddie Fitzslmmons of
the Dodgers yesterday when he
licked Pittsburgh, 9 to 4, in one
of the day's two big-league
games.
The win did more than Just
boost Brooklyn within a half
game of the idle St. Louis Cards.
It afforded almost positive proof
that Fitzslmmons, the wonder
veteran who won 18 and lost
only two last year. Is at last
ready to begin taking a weekly
turn for a team that has pennant
fever.
Meanwhile, at Chicago, Claude
Passeau of the Cubs and Hal
Schumacher of the Giants
hooked up In one of the season's
most brilliant duels, with Pas

Lou Novlkoff, who came to the
Cubs last spring as the most
highly publicized rookie in Na
lonal league history, will be
back In the minors tonight as a
member of the Milwaukee Brew
ers. He failed to meet major
league standards so was sent to
thr American association club
for more seasoning. His new
bnrs will be genial Charlie
Grimm, who still believes Lou
some day will develop into a
Sreat hitter.

so . . . the movies are the clear
