Oregon University Quint
Drops Second Straight On
Barnstorming Trip East.
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.
Oregon College of Education
squeezed past Albany in an
other college game at Mon
mouth, 37 to 33.

Inter-collegiate Conference
Opener Slated for Normal
Court Repeat Saturday.
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.

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..

BEN HOGAN HOT
DESPITE TRAPS
Miami, Fla.. Dec. 12. 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.
As the field teed off on the
second day of the four-day.
72-hole grind, Bill Heinlein of
Noblesville, Ind., and Jim Fer
rier, former Australian cham
pion who now resides at Elm
hurst, 111., were right behind
Hogan and Laffoon with 67's

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.
They set up a $25,000 fund to
buy diamond equipment for ser-
