IS LI TIGER CAGE VET 3 Other Lettermen Available to Coach Grant First Loop Game on Jan. 7. San Francisco, Dec. 11 U.R A behind-the-scenes battle over the forthcoming Rose Bowl prof its looms here tomorrow when representatives of the 10 Pacific Coast Conference schools begin arriving for their annual winter meeting. i Although PCC rules officially V-prescribe the method of divid ing the heavy cash from the an nual Pasadena classic, this year finds the.faculty men and gradu ate managers beset with the fol lowing problems: 1. The participants will be Southern California and Wash ington, two conference schools, a phenomenon brought about by telegraphic affirmation of the view that to bring out a team from another section of the country would be almost impos sible. 2. Only four schools had teams on the field this fall USC, Washington, California and . UCLA. Should the six which gave up Stanford. Oregon, Ore gon State, Washington State, Montana and Idaho receive their customary share of the re ceipts? - In the past, this share for sach school has been about $29,000, besides approximately $100,000 collected by the eastern, south ern or southwestern visitor, and the $65,000 or so pocketed by the western representative. In addi tion, the Tournament of Roses committee retains around $70.- uoo, and this year, as lest, a "substantial sum" will be turned ever to a war charity. Conference men always have been close-mouthed about what goes on in their business meet ings, preferring to exude an out ward attitude of good-fellowship and trust. But officials of . the schools who carried on this season expressed dissatisfaction -."off the record" with those who Wolded. Discussions also will center round eliaibilitv rules (nr.ncrf year and may go Into the post war problems of players who will return from the armed forces. It was not learned wheth er the PCC would follow the lead of the Southeastern Conference in petitioning the army to allow its trainees to play. E 1 . 1 Those hunters who this fall A held special tags for the killing of doe deer, antelope, bull elk or , cow elk are requested to mall j: in lmmeaiaieiy me auaenca x check-out cards if they have not I already done so. : Several hundred persons have failed to check out although this is required by law. The check out card must be mailed in even if a hunter did not kill any game or go out hunting. . Hunters are being given this notice to comply with the law and the names of those falling to respondt hen will be compiled and turned over to the game law enforcement officers. LIEUT." HUNT TOPS New York, Dec. 11 (U.R) Lieut. (Jug) Joseph R. Hunt of Los Angeles, who won th- na V tional singles tennis title from .John A. Kramer, also of Los "Angeles, at Forest Hills, N. Y., last summer, won top ranking tonight in the annual listings of the U. S. Lawn Tennis asso ciations. . With only Dale Niedermeyer remaining of last year's regu lars, plus three other letter men, Medford high's basketball Tigers will start intensive daily drills Monday under the coach ing of Les Grant, elevated Fri day from his position as junior nign mentor.

Around Niedermeyer, me lanxy center, will be built a team that, on paper, looks in ferior to Klamath Pall and Ash. land and on a par with Grants rass ana Jtoseourg, the other Southern Oregon f!nnfornru members. Besides Niedermeyer, return ing lettermen are Bob Weisen burger, Harry Nordwick and Doug Plumley. . 35 Drilling The squad, some 35 strong, has been working out the past 10 days under J. C.

In addition to the four returning monogram win ners, a host of lads up from last year's junior. high team and oth ers from the sophomore quint of last season are making bids for varsity Derins.- . The Tigers' conference sched ule opens January 7 and 8, with the Roseburg high Indians com ing here for a two-game series. Each of the five conference teams will play the others four times., With Klamath Folic loot year's state champions, enjoying uie pre-season tavomes role. Ashland, with a veteran team, also looks strong. Grant, who sent his charges through their paces for the first time yesterday afternoon, said he favored the fn.t fense and would probably teach a comDinaiion zone and man-for-man defense.

New York, Dec. 11 U.B Forty-three major league play ers, including at least a dozen described as "irreplacable" un der present manpower stringen cies, have gone into military service since the- close of the baseball season and many more are slated to go soon, a poll of clubs indicated tonight. Among top players in both leagues who have- donned uni forms and who achieved . the following 1943 records are: Luke Appling, Chicago White Sox infielder and American league batting champion with an avenge of .328. Dick Wakefield, Detroit out fielder, who led American league in hits with 200 and in doubles with 37. He also won wide ac claim as top rookie outfielder of the year. Mickey Witek. New York Giant Infielder, who led the National league in singles with 173. Hiram Blthorn, Chicago Cubs pitcher, who topped both cir cuits in shutouts with seven. Harry Walker, St. Louis Car dinal outfielder who had the league's longest consecutive hit ting streak, 29 games. The St. Louis Cardinals, who already have lost five key men, are hardest hit and if Morton Cooper,, the National league's leading pitcher, passes his in duction physical exam Monday, their chances for repeating as pennant winners will be remote. WALLA WALLA NAG TO ENTER DERBY BILLY PICHE IS HE WRITES FOLKS Albert H. (Billy) Piche, Jr, specialist, first class in physical instruction in the U. S. Navy, writes his parents, Mr. and Mrs A. H. Piche of 47 North Peach street from "somewhere in Eng land" that he is busily engaged in whipping up a stage show to .be given with navy talent at a theatre in a- town close to his base. Piche, former Medford high football and basketball player, wrote that a station orchestra with "good old-fashioned Amerl can swing music" would be in cluded in the play, which he estl mated would last about an hour. "We have had a few German planes over at night," he wrote "but have been lucky so far. Don't worry about me, as I can run like heck if I haven't got a gun." Piche wrote that he enjoyed the. clippings sent him by his parents. He said that mail from the United States reached Eng land in much shorter time that it took mail from there to get here, because outgoing letters in England are held up in the Lon don ppstoffice. Portland, Ore., Dec. 11 U.F8 The northwest may place a con tender in the 1944 Kentucky derby, blue ribbon event of the American turf, by having "Sirde," a two-year-old owned by Allen Drumheller of Walla Walla, at the starting gates. Sirde, credited with the fast est six furlong time in the cur rent season for two-year-olds 1:11.5, with 114 pounds was sired by the German stallion Mio D'Arezzo, which also sired Moiland, a horse which finished fourth in 1840.

Mine Workers, and coal operators producing 87 per cent of the nation's coal supply, today agreed on a wage con tract embodying an $8.50 basic wage for an (m-hour day as provided in the existing mine wage agreement with the government. Coal Administrator Harold L. Ickes whn neffntinted the ffnv. ernment agreement with UMW President John L.

He called on those operators who were not parites to the new contract the Southern Ap palachian group "to reach an understanding with the miners at once."
