Baseball Slate; Seven Lettermen Out Central Point, Mar. 11 Seven lettermen are competing for places on the Central Point high baseball team this season but still the squad lacks depth as far as experience is concerned, Coach Clarence Mellbye said Saturday. The lettermen back from last season are Herb Colley, Merle Anhorn, Herb Trautman, Marlin Sandvig, Tom Rupp, John Big ham and Don Johnson. Bigham and Johnson are pitchers. Many Frosh Out Mellbye said the rest of his squad except for perhaps four or five sophomores and juniors, will be made up of freshman. Last year fans will remember Bigham in particular as show ing fairly good form as a pitcher. The Pointers will open their 1950 season against Eagle Point at the Camp White Veterans cen ter field March 24 in a practice game for both. This will be a non-conference tilt. Once again the Pointers will play in both the Southern Ore gon and the J-D-J conferences. The combined schedule for the two leagues follows: Battle Royal Slated Here Mack Lillard was having a tough time yesterday to line up enough wrestlers to make a bat tle royal as the feature match on Thursday's card. Lillard will have Gorgeous Gus. Billy Fox's wrestling bear, for the free-for-all and hopes to line up four grapplers to go in to the ring with the bruin. The Great Atlas, unbeaten here, said it is beneath his dig nity to grapple a bear but Lil lard believed yesterday that the "superman" could be convinced. Georges Dusette was uncertain yesterday if his foot, injured last Thursday here, would be suf ficiently healed to permit him to wrestle. - The promoter said he was try ing to sign an opening bout, in addition to the battle royal, add ing that the two regular matches between survivors would follow the melee. Tickets for the program are on sale at Brown's, 101 East Main street. Point second team by winning Friday gained the class B cham pionship finals. Other teams in B bracket ti the finals were decided Thursday night while one of the others in the consolation B title game was decided Thursday (Howard) and the other was decided Friday (Rogue River second team).
