The main event will send
Pete Balcastro, the wild Weed
Italian, against the Great Atlas

Bowerman Track
Team Scheduled
Eugene, Apr. 20 Another
1 busy week faces Oregon's spring
sports squads at the 1950 North
ern Division schedule swings
into the second round.
Coach Bill Bowerman s track
squad faces Washington State at
Hayward field Saturday in what
should be one of the better dual
meets in recent years. The Cou
gars are undefeated in 19
straight starts and are also the
only northern division squad to
defeat a Bowerman coached
Oregon team.
1 Coach Bowerman has high
hopes that his cripples. Jack
Hutchins and Bill Fell, will be
in toD shape for the Cougars.
Hutchins has been hampered by
a bad leg for two weeks ana
Fell missed last week's meet
with Idaho with a muscle injury.
i The meet is rated as a tossup
and one of the largest track
crowds in recent years is ex
pected to be on hand.
over treatment dished out to him
by the strong man In last week s
tag match 'and has announced
that he plans to waste no time
in evening the score tonight.
The Atlas, on the other hand,
figures Belfastro a push-over
and so informed Lillard when
the match was in the making.
The Weed walloper doesn't con
sider himself a push-over for
anyone and the remark just
added more fuel to the fire as
far as the Californian is con
cerned. It can't be denied that the At
las is a fine wrestler when he
wants to be, but he usually
would rather turn to the dirty
stuff. Belcastro is no slouch
when incomes to fine points of
the game but he also isn't a
cream puff when the slugging
and eye gouging starts. ,
A maWi which could hold the
main event spot on any card in
the country is slated for the mid
dle spot. It pits Leo Mallick, he
of the vicious pile driver, against
Lee Grable, Los Angeles flash.
Wallick is the guy who put
Grable on the shelf for some
time recently with a leg injury
and Lee would delight over a
chance to cool his adversary.
They have grappled three times
recently in Portland with their
last match there beaking all
wrestling atendance records at
the Labor Temple.
The opener promises as much
action as each of the other two
bouts but it will be of a differ
ent kind. The principals, George
Strickland and Ted Bell, are
smooth operators who combine
a bag of tricks with a lot of
speed in their bouts.
Saltzman, Ex-Portland
Hurler, Sent San Diego
New York, Apr. 20 U.Pj Six
Dlavers were returned to the
minor leagues and two others
added to major league rosters
today.
Pitcher Harold Saltzman, who
cost the Cleveland Indians a
bundle of cash and five players
when they purchased him from
Portland last December 6, was
returned to the Pacific Coast
league. The Indians released the
tall righthander who won 23
games for the Beavers in 1949
to their San Diego farm ciud on
24-hour recall.

531,000 Silver
Salmon in Rogue
Liberations of S31.000 finger
ling silver salmon below Sav
age Rapids dam on the Rogue
river have been completed by
the state game commission.
The fingerling silvers were dis
tributed below the dam to avoid
losses in the turbines during the
irrigation season. Another 50,
000 tiny silver salmon are be
ing held at the Butte Falls fish
hatchery for release in the spring
of 1951.
The yearling silvers will have
a much better chance for survival
than the fingerlings as they will
range from six to eight inches
long when released.
These fingerling silvers were
all hatched from eggs taken at
the hatchery. The entire output
of this hatchery Is devoted to
the Rogue river system.

National League
Has More Balks
New York. Aer. 20 (U.R)
Have American league umpires,
been advised to disregard the!
strict new interpretation of tne
balk rule?
If not, the testimony of two
days of the new season offers
evidence that American league
pitchers are simply smarter than
National leaguers. Not a single
balk has been called by an Amer
ican league umpire in cigiu
games while National league ar
biters have called eight in seven
games.
Johnny Sain of the Boston
Braves and Russ Meyer and Jim
Konstantv of the Philadelphia
Phillies were charged with balks
in yesterday's National league
games.
Only 25 balks were called in
the National league all last sea
son compared to the eight called
in two days this season. A total
of 30 balks were called in the
American league last season.
