Br Uu Associated Press Oregon State'! basketball team, the one all the scribes and coaches are "fingering" as this year's northern division title threat, won lt first pre season hoop test at Salem last night while Oregon dropped its second straight on its eastern barnstorming tour. Slats Gill's veteran gang of O.S.C. Beavers slid past Wil lamette, 44 to 34. The tall but still unmeshed Webfoots from Oregon, who lost the night before to Wayne university at Detroit, shuffled off to Buffalo where they were outlasted by Canlslus college, 42 to 34. The Webfoots held a 20-19 lead at halftime, but Canislus started canning 'em in the sec ond half with Bob Gauchat, holder of the school's all-time coring record, setting the tor rid pace with 13 points. Canislus simply outspeeded the lanky westerners. Oregon four times declined free throws In the clos ing minutes to take the ball out of bounds and try to "go for two" and close the gap. Catfoot Johnny Katica scored IS points, making it 33 in two nights, as he led St Martin's touring Rangers to their second straight road victory last night, 81 to 34. Pacific university was the victim on its home floor at Forest Grove. The Rangers took an early lead and seldom were approached by less than 10 points.

Ashland, Dec. 12 Spl.) Students, faculty, and business men are working hard to make the official SOCE inter-collegiate basketball conference open ing a success, when EOCE of La Grande invades the locals' court tonight and Saturday night. Both teams are rated very strong and equally matched. To date, SOCE has won from the Klamath Falls All Stars, and Rubensteln's Oregonlans; SOCE has won one and dropped one. both to the college of Idaho. SOCE will have six returning lettermen to EOCE's seven. Last year these two teams tied for first place honors in the conference, having won 6 and lost 2 games. This should place the teams on comparatively even footing. The games will both start at 8:00 o'clock Friday, and Satur day evenings with a preliminary and half time entertainment scheduled. The junior high squad will play the Klamath Falls freshmen in the opener Friday night and Saturday will find the Southern Oregon "B" coaches tangling with the Little Sons. On the first night the SOCE students will provide en tertainment with different groups participating during the half as well as the pep band. The second encounter will find the Ashland Quarterback club, during the lapse, holding its initiation for the new members. Starting lineup for the Sons has Capt. Bob Mulder at center; Wes Peters and either Darrell Copcland or Joe Spayde at the forward posts; Bob Hoefs and either Joe Barry or Bruce Wall as guards. No definite informa tion has yet been received as to the starting lineup for the east ern squad. OF SEEKS TILT HERE The House of David basket ball team would like to play in Medford between January 15 and 22, with either a local team or the Colored Ghosts, it was stated in a letter received here today from H. Witte. If no local team is available, arrangements can be made for the game with the Ghosts, Witte wrote. Both outfits are well known here, especially through their baseball teams. Any local man ager interested in promoting the basketball game may communi cate directly with Mr. Witte at the Witte Agency, 606 Olympian Boulevard, Beloit, Wis. G.P.I TO E FIVE Eugene, Ore., Dec. 12 (AP) The University High basketball squad of Eugene opened its sea son by dropping a rugged Grants Pass five here Thursday night at McArthur Court, 26-22. The game was a close checking struggle, with the quick whistle of Referee Siegerseth for minor infractions noticeably hampering the Cavemen. Grants Pass led, 8-6, at the end of the first quarter, but after that "Unl" led until the fourth quarter, when the Cavemen forged ahead, 22-21, with three minutes to play. The eviction of Bob Havard and Chet Lathrop of Grants Pass In the final quarter aided the University team to come behind a win, however.. Closing ur iin cUMiried Ada 0 . m.

KIP) It takes more than a few greens guarding traps to keep the na tion's top pros, Ben Hogan, espe cially, from tearing a golf course apart. Miami Springs officials tried to put a curb on low-scoring in the $10,000 Miami open by in stalling pitfalls where the good players' drives and approach shots usually drop. But in the 11 traps placed around the greens since last year didn't bother Hogan at all yesterday as he fired a blazing 64 that tied the course mark and gave him a first-round lead of two strokes over a record field of more than 200. Good as that round was, it by no means sewed up first money for the diminutive Hershey, Pa., star. Ky Laffoon of Chicago who stroked a five-under-par 30 on the back nine, was Just two shots off the pace, and 11 other pros were under par 70 for the opening round.

FILL IN THIS OF CARDINALS GOES TO GIANTS' FOLD Slugging First Baseman Brings Catcher, Pitcher And Undisclosed Amount. Chicago, Dec. 12. (AP) The big merry-go-round of the major league winter baseball meeting had Just about run down last night when the St. Louis Cardi nals suddenly turned Johnny Mize over to the New York Giants and there was the deal for which bosses of the 16 clubs had been watching since Mon day. Coming as it did, the move found most of the major league chiefs already homeward bound, but not Branch Rickey of the Cardinals and Bill Terry of the Giants. Rickey let go of his big slug ging first baseman only after Terry had promised to hand over Catcher Ken O'Dea and Pitcher Bill Lohrmann plus a chunk of cash of unstated denomination. O'Dea had played in only 59 Giant games and Lohrmann had won only nine of 19 decisions last season, so Terry figured he could spare the boys. And Rickey knew what he'd do about the Cardinal first base Job. Sanders Successor Coming up from Columbus Is Ray Sanders, a competent first sackcr, as well as versatile John ny Hopp, who filled in for Mize on occasions last season. Regard ing O'Dea, Rickey said he need ed a catcher and "liked the looks of Ken." He also never is reluct ant to take the other fellow's spare cash. Yesterday's other develop ments reflected the chieftains' concern over the nation's In volvement in the war, an item that detracted considerably from their efforts to discuss baseball.
