George M. Leader signed a new boxing code into law. Leader's signature was the sig nal for the Rooney-McGinley boxing club in Pittsburgh to dust off plans for a Bob Baker- Bob Satterfield heavyweight bout late next month. The bout apparently would mark the first test of a provision of the new code that a co-promo ter (International Boxing club) must take out a permit to partic ipate in a bout. A permit now is needed for every bout. The IBC was said to have giv en the provision full approval after confabs in Scranton and Philadelphia with members of the three-man State Athletic commission. Commission Chairman James G. Sleepy Jim Crowley and Com missioners Alfred M. Klein and Paul G. Sullivan were among boxing figures who witnessed Leader's signing of the "clean- boxing" code. The code, planned fbr tome- time by the new commission, was speeded to completion after the governor imposed the boxing ban in the wakt of the HaroUl JKhnson-Julio Mederot fiasco in Philadelphia last May; Johnson, allecedly drugged before the bout collapfled t the and of tha ate- ond rounfl. locd tax ax Ira. wug et! a. 9 o DARRELL X1ILLER COMPANY, 415 S.

Coos Bay; A spokesman for the governor said the code will arm the com mission with the "necessary tools" to make boxing a clean sport "rather than a crooked bus iness." The code calls for the finger printing of all applicants for li censes and strict standards for the "safety, health and welfare" of fighters and permits the box ing commission to suspend any fighter, manager, promoter or handler without a hearing. The governor said an amend ment prohibiting a matchmaker from having a financial interest in a boxer would be added later. Fish Lake Stays Open To Fishing J Portland (U.R) The Oregon State Game Commission said to day Fish lake in the Rogue drainage area of southern Ore gon will remain open to fishing, despite reuests for closure by many interested persons. The requests for closure were made because of the drawdown of the reservoir by irrigationists. Fear was ' expressed by some conservationists that the lake might be overfished during the low water period. The commission said, how ever, that it did not feel the fish in the reservoir needed fur ther protection at this time.

Coast Conference Gridders Begin Practice By HAL WOOD Unitod Prii Sports Wiiior San Francisco (U.R) The rush for the Rose Bowl gets under way in the West tomor row when nearly 600 athletes in the Pacific Coast Conference start their annual fall football practice. While the advance predictions say it will be a two-team race between Southern California and UCLA for tits conferepce title and only UCLA is eligible between these two for the New Year's assignment the other teams haven't given up. With the exception of Oregon and California, there is a great supply of experienced talent. The Webfoots will start the sea son with only 14 lettermen. And Coach Pappy Waldorf at Cal will have only 11 men back who earned their letters last year. But neither Coach Len Casa nova of the Webfoots nor Wal dorf has lost a game yet. "And this club of mine might surprise quite a few," says the usually pessimistic Waldorf. All told, there are 183 letter men returning to the nine schools. Oregon State, which has the only new coach in the con ference, has the most returning experienced men 26. Southern California has 24 coming back; Washington and Washington 0 ' "Il Let Us Tell You How They Will Save You Money Give You More Recaps, Etc. You Can Thursday State 22 each. UCLA has 23, Stanford 21 and Idaho 20. But California, which has the fewest number of returning let termen, will have the biggest turnout for practice. The roster lists 83 men and Waldorf hopes he might find a few diamonds in the rough iiuJliis big listing. The . new coach at Oregon State is Tommy Prothro, late of the UCLA Bruins, the club that administered a 61-0 lacing to the Beavers last year. He is chang ing to the single wing, but that is about the only change in style or play in the entire loop. USC, Washington and Stan ford each have 70 men reporting for practice: UCLA has 60; Idaho, Oregon, Oregon State and Washington State about 50 each, Fullback Jack Morris and Cen ter Norm Chapman, ex-Medford high stars, will report to Univer sity of Oregon for grid drills Both are sophomores. AmeS, la. (U.R) Iowa State college researchers use an elec trical "activity recorder" to check when pheasant hens leave and return to their nests during incubation. Results of the study will be tabulated in hopes farm ers can be induced to mow hy fields when hens are aipt to be off the nests, thus cutting the fatality rate of the birds.
