?S0 Conference Holds
Jamboree On Friday
On KF Pelican Floor
Southern Oregon Conference
will present its preview of com
ing basketball attractions Friday
night.
(S)Tl& event will be the third
annual hoop jamboree of the cir
cuit. Scene will be the Klamath
union kigh school gymnasium.
Participants will be the Big Four
of southern Oregon prep ath
letics, tl A-l schools, Medford,
Grants Pass, Ashland and host
Klamath FaliS,
Most of the clubs will be mak
ing their first public appearance
of the season at the jamboree.
Klamath stole a bit of a march
by demonstrating rules this
weejc at a clinic of the Klamath
County Basketball Officials as
sociation. Each club will play the equiva
lent of three quarters of a game,
facing each of the other league
contingents for one quarter or
eight minutes. It fiSds up to IV2
games of basketball for Klam
ath Falls fans who turn out to
see all clubs cthiQoop perform
in the same evening under one
roof.
Jamboree action will give
coaches the first opportunity of
the new season to test their pro
teges under fire. It will also give
the mentors and the players at
least a hint of the opposition
they'll face when regular con
fetnce play begins in January.
Because of the early season and
because theshort action against
any one club Friday, no team
will get a full or accurate pic
ture, however, of the caliber of
rivals.
Winning Secondary
And, while clubs will be out
to do their best, winning won't
be the important issue at the
jamboree. Coaches plan to give
all or most of their players a
chance to play and likely will
experiment with a number of
combinations.
Coach Frank Roelandt of Med
ford has already said he'll take
a squad of 14 players to Klam
ath and that he hopes to give
every eager some opportunity
to play. For a number of play
ers on each of the clubs it will
be the first taste of varsity com
petition, o
Medford starters will be se
lected from among John Foust,
Dick McLaughlin, Bob Tisdel,
Lloyd Cearley, Dick Copple, Lar
ry Perkins and Mike Stearns.
Ashland will put the most ex
perienced veterans on the floor,
since it has four regulars back.
Grants Pass boasts the most let
termen with eight and Medford
follows with five. Klamath Falls
has only two lettermen from last
season's squad but will have an
advantage in good height to
make up for inexperience.
Grants Pass has the most 6
footers, however, some 12 boys
of that height or better have
been engaged in Cavemen drills.
Jerry Donovan Appointed
General Manager of Seals
Columbus Ohio -j- (y.R) Jer
ry Donovan, who was the first
Pacific Coast league player to hit
a home un in vast Seals Sta
dium, took over today as presi
dent and general manager of
his old San Francisco ball club
as the Boston Red Sox launch
ed a, "new deal" for the city's
fans.
Donovan was named to the
post yesterday by Genera Man
ager Joe Cronin of the Red Sox
less than 48 hours after the Am
erican league- club bought the
debt-ridd club in a surprise
move at the Minor league meet
ing here.
Bob Freitas, general manager
of the San Jose Red Sox of the
California State league, was
liamed business manager of the
Seals. ,
San Jose was a Boston team
until the end of this season when
the Red Sox pulled out and the
club was taken over by a local
group headed by San Jose pub
licist Chuck Mallory.
San Francisco Meeting
Cronin said a meeting would
held in Sam Francisco later
where further plans for the club
would be worked out. This will
include the shifting of, many
players in the Boston farm sys
tem to the Seals "so that we can
build them into a real pennant
contender."
The status of Damon Miller,
president of the defunct Little
Corporation which ran the
Seals for two seasons, remain
ed undecided. Indications were
that he might not be retained as
Cronin sought to rebuild the
club with members of the Red
friend 0 of
Sox organization.
Donovan, an old
Cronin's, was executive secre
tary of the Pacific Coast league
last season while also president
of the California league.
His appointment to the Seals
post meant that the PCL, which
is expected to accept Claire
Goodwin's resignation as presi
dent Dec. 12, also will have to
find:a man for the secretary's
spot while the state league elects
a new prexy.
Plqtjed Outfield ......
Donovan, who will be 47 on
Dec. 19, is a native San Francis
can and got to know Cronin on
the town's sandlots. q
While Cronin ent on to
make a name for fcamself as
manager with the Washington
Senators and Boston Red Sox,
Jerry stayed behind in the Coast
league where he was an outfield
er from 1928 to the 1938 season.
His first six years were with
the Seals under Nick Williams.
Then he played at Sacramento
in 1934 and closed out his career
at Oakland in 1938.
Donovan alternated between
first base and the outfield.
He was president of the Far
West league from 1948 until
1951 when the loop disbanded.
He headed the state league from
1949 through last season.
TOO MANY HONKS
Indianapolis , (U.R) Bernard
Gray is a mild, long-suffering
person, but he finally decided
enouggs enough. He complain
ed to police that a horn-honking
neighbor has been disturbing
him for two years.

St. Mary's. In total score com
petition St.cMary's, Rogue River
and Butte Falls will oppose the
other three loop members. '
Each team will see only two
quarters or a half-game of action.
That will mean six quarters or a
game and orys-half of basket
ball. The action will enable the
teams to get a pre-conference
look at one another all on the
same evening and will give fans
an opportunity to get an advance
look at the aggregations.
Talent, with eight letter-winners
on the club, will appear as
the champion of the past two
seasons and one of the probable
strong clubs of the loop again.
But the Bulldogs are anticipat
ing strong rivalry this year from
Rogue River and St. Mary's and
look at Butte Falls as a dark
horse. Prospect has a combina
tion of two lettermen and three
iransiers wnicn could prove a
strong force.
The teams tonight will collide
in the following order: Talent
against Rogue River, Jackson
ville against St. Mary's, Pros
pect against Butte Falls, Talent
against St. Mary's, Rogue JJiver
against Prospect and Butte Falls

Nuclear Fuels Said
In Status of Plenty
Astoria (U.R) "We can stop
worrying about world energy
reserves for a long time to come"
when3 we learn to use nuclear
fuel efficiently and economical
ly, a Hanford atomic works sci
entist said last night.
William J. Davis, a General
-lectric company engineering
specialist in the Hanford design
section, told a group of 4-H club
leaders that known reserves of
nuclear fuels are many times the
known remaining reserves of oil,
gas and coal
He said atomic power prob
ably would "gradually pick up
the burden of supplying your
mounting energy needs with at
first no decrease in cost. Power
costs eventually will decline com
pared to other costs, he added.
AFL, CIO in Separate
Conventions Prior To
Organization Merger
New York (U.R) The AFL
and CIO today opened separate
conventions primarily to ratify
an agreement that, will merge
the two organizations into the
largest and most powerful labor
group in the nation s history.
The merger itself will take
place formally next Monday
when 1,800 representatives of
the two groups meet at the 71st
Regimental Armory for the in
augural convention of The
American Federation of Labor
and Congress of Industrial Or
ganizations.
John L. Lewis' independent!
.. . n. 1 TIT 1 S-?
unnea mine w oncers weunes
day night requested the CIO to
pay back $1,665,000 in old loans
before melting into the giant
new organization.
In a letter to CIO Secretary
Treasurer James B. Carey, UMW
Secretary Treasurer John Owens
dunned the CIO for repayment
so its members can "honor this
valid loan before you dissolve
your organization."
Says UMW Lent Money
A spokesman for the UMW
said the mine workers lent the
money after Lewis had led the
then Qpmmittee for Industrial
Organization out of the AFL in
the mid-1980s
But Carey replied directly to
Lewis that his union was "in
error" in claiming the CIO was
in arrears or was being dissolved.
Carey also referred to Lewis
refusal to bring the mine work
ers into the merged labor group.
In rejecting . an invitation,
Carey said, Lewis had "achieved
the momentary ripple of public
ity which you sought to relieve
the boredom of your isolation
from the democratic labor move
ment." -
Routine Meetings Expected
The separate, two-day "tran
sition" conventions were expect
ed to be routine, with over
whelming approval of the mer
ger and the new constitution
Both AFL President George
Meany and CIO Chieftain Walter
P. Reuther -and their executive
boards approved them earlier
this week.
A dissenting vote probably
will come, from Michael J. Quill,
president of the CIO (Transport
Workers Union and a militant .
foe of merger on the ground that
the new AFL-CIO constitution
does not offer adequate safe
guards against discrimination,
raiding and racketeering.
However, the executive board
of his union, meeting Monday. -was
expected to approve TWU
entry into the new AFL-CIO. -
