TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday, March 25. 1955 Archie Moore's License Revoked Los Angeles (U.R) The Cali fornia Athletic Commission has revoked the state boxing license of 38-year-old Archie Moore be cause the light heavyweight champion "has an organic heart condition.1 . . . . Clayton Frye, Southern Cali fornia boxing inspector for the commission, said after reading a medical report on Moore, "It may mean the end of his career." Commission Physician Dr. James B. Ryan examined Moore, who currently weighs in at close to 200 pounds, before a sched uled non-title fight with Frankie Daniels in San Diego last Fri day. Ryan recommended that Moore be denied permission to enter the ring and the fight was called off. Locffler Takes Aggie Hoop Job New York (U.R) Canny Ken Loeffler, who built La Salle into a national basketball champion, switched to Texas A & M today to pull the Aggies out of the Southwest cellar by "filling the air with basketrjans.- His announcement that he has agreed to a three-year Aggie contract caught La Salle offi cials by surprise and without any idea who would succeed him at the Philadelphia school.

Br DICK FALES Mesa, Arid. UPJ The Chi cago Cubs finished seventh in the National League race last year, and although Manager Stan Hack feels otherwise, they'll be lucky to climb much higher in 1955. The Windy City's once-domi nant baseball team has gone steadily downhill in recent years and now is in the midst of a re building program. It's spring camp was loaded with rookies, and even if several should come through this year there are too many basic weaknesses to pro pel Chicago into a flag con tender's position. "We need pitching most of all," Hack said. "After that, we need catching and a regular out fielder. "I hope we do as well with rookies as -we did last year," he said. "We had three good ones Ernie Banks at short, Gene Baker at second and left-handed pitcher Jim Davis.". Infield Shapes Up Banks and Baker teamed to form one of Chicago's best double-play combinations in many seasons. In addition, both batted .275, respectable figures for their positions. Davis, purchased in early-season from Seattle, fin ished with an 11-7 mound record. "Those two boys around sec ond are going to be great ones," Hack said. "If they do as well as last year I'll be satisfied. Chicago's infield is the only place where Hack is set to start the season. Besides Banks and Baker, he has Dee Fondy at first and slugging Randy Jack son at third. The unit ranks high among the league's defensive groups, and offensively holds its own. The outfield is a problem. The sale of homeirun hitter Ralph Kiner to the Cleveland Indians vacated left field, so slugger Hank Sauer moves back to that spot. Frankie Baumholtz be- BOWLING COMMERCIAL LEAGUE. Mail Tribune lead in the Com mercial League was cut to one game it split 2-2 with Valentine cafe. A 236 game- by Andy An derson was best effort, giving him a 610 series. Alexander and Brown Insur ance closed the gap to top spot by taking Crater Lake Ford 3-1, with team game of 905. Bill Mey ers 211 had high individual game. Darling Real Estate beat C and C Loggers, with Ray Tres fcam and Joe Cabler fighting for honors. Ray had 214 high game and 604 series. Darling high score game of 905 was a tie with that of A and B. Quality Market ran into a hot Table Rock squad and a 2605 series by the lumbermen. Morn ing Fresh fell to Domestic laun dry and First National bank to Bates Candy by 3 to 1 series. The Bankers had low series again, fourth time in recent weeks, with 2188. Charles Thompson of Bates rolled 225 for high in the lower bracket. Standings: w. L.

Tennant Jack Cabler Bob Cabler cause of his hitting, leads in the race for the other two positions. The rookies are fighting for the centerfield post if Baum holtz holds down right. One, Gale Wade, came to the Cubs in the Kiner deal. He's one of the fastest men in the game, but a weak hitter. The other is Sollie Drake, who batted .282 with Des Moines a year ago. A second player who came to Chicago from Cleveland is Hack's greatest hope among the rookie pitchers. Workhorse Sam Jones has looked impressive in train ing camp games. The jump from the Class C California League, where he was 28-4 with Stock ton, may prove too much for Bob Thorpe, the club's most her alded rookie. The same may hold true for John Andre, a 21-9 righthander with Shreve port. Veterans round out the pitch ing corps. They are Howie Pol lett. Bob Rush, Paul Minner and Warren Hacker. The first two, according to Hack, have been "throwing real good'' in spring training. For catching, . Hack is in a quandary. He three - platooncd the position last year with vet erans Clyde McCullough and Walker Cooper and rookie El vin Tappe. None was of suffic ient calibre to hold the post, and this year returning serviceman Harry Chiti probably will get the first call.
