An ROTC unit will be estab lished at OSC in September, but navy regulations stipulate the students, under ROTC must be In residence one quarter before becoming eligible for intercol legiate sports.

Y Aug. 8 (U.R) Titan Hanover, the bay wonder colt of harness racing, went after the winner's purse of one of the richest of all Hambleton ian stakes- today and was re garded such a sure thing that he was barred from the betting in the record field of 19 horses. Winner of all his 10 starts. eight of them as a two year old when the ran the mile in two minutes flat, the fleet colt pur chased at a yearling sale In November, 1943, for $3,000 was rated such a heavy favorite by the operators of the Good Time track they took the unprecedent ed action of barring him from the Pari-Mutuel wagering on the race. They couldn't, however, bar him from the winner's purse should he come home in front in the best two out of three one mile heats so if he lives up to his advance billing he would return his owners, E. Roland Harriman and Capt. Elbridge Gerry, many times more than their original investment if all 19 start. That would make first place worth $27,608.33 and should Titan Hanover win it, it would be in addition to the $30,000 which the bargain basement colt already has won in his previous starts.

STORE Sport Chips BY IIIJV mi I JMI 1 Harry Chipman Mall Tribune Sports Editor We do not always agree with Paul Freer nor with the manner in which he runs the Medford Craters but we feel something should be said In his defense for removing Jess Van Horn from the game with Klamath Falls Navy here Sunday. Freer drew considerable boos from the stands when he replaced Van Horn after a couple of well-plac ed hits had gotten past Freer, who was playing third base. The Yakima, Wash., pitcher had been bothered slightly by a bad arm and wasn't sure, he would be able to play Sunday, After pitching a few innings the arm became more sore and con tinned to pain Van Horn more each time he threw the ball. In the fifth inning, with the bags full and none out, Freer took Van Horn out amid lusty jeers from the spectators. Van Horn who had never before in his career been taken out of a game, wanted to go to center field and allow Dick Fawcett to pitch but Freer thought differently and took him out of the contest. Monday Van's aim was no better so he went to a physi cian, who discovered the trou ble to be aggrevated by ma laria, which had been con tracted in the Pacific ""ir, and not by throwing a baseball. Had not Freer aciej wisely. Van Horn might hr.?e suffered a permanent injii. y by contin uing to aggrev.. the sore arm. Floyd Lawson regained his batting average leadership over Paul (Hoosier) Hoffard over the week-end. Lawson's figure now stands at -500, six hits out of 12 times up, while Hoffard is hit ting -441, eight blows out of 18 trips to the plate. Other averages are Dick Fawcett .400. Paul Freer .385, Steve CrinDen .384. Al Kirchcr .341, Herb Burnham 318, Dick Kidwell .294. Georee Gitzen .250, Fred Stammen .244, Homer Sullivan .225, Harold Lange .216, Carl Reich -200 and Don Waldron-167. Team aver age Is .269-. John Feedy, the Ashland southpaw who had a short but brilliant career with Medford baseball team this year, is do ing alright for himself at Butte, Mont., according to news clippings received. Reedy, in the navy V-5 pro gram is attending the Montana School of Mines at Butte and working as a pitcher with the M 6W i vm MSM Engineers.
