Baylor Brightens
Hoop Prospects
For Seattle U
Seattle One of the most ex
citing player prospects in the
Northwest, six returning letter-
men and a brand new coach
makes the 1956-57 basketball pic
ture at Seattle University the
brightest since back in 1949
when Chieftain fans hailed the
arrival of their first All-Amer
ica combination:, Eddie and
Johnny O'Brien.
The top- news in the talent de
partment centers around a 6-foot
6-inch Negro player, Elgin Bay
lor, described enthusiastically
by Al Lightner, Pacific Coast
conference official and sports
editor of the Salem (Oregon)
Statesman, as "the greatest bas
ketball player I have ever seen.
Baylor is originally from
Washington, D. C, where he
played for Spingarn high school,
leading his prep mates to a city
title in 1954 and All-American
high school honors for himself.
He enrolled at the College of
Idaho and played one year dur
ing the 1954-1955 season. He
topped all scorers in the North
west that year both major and
(mall colleges with 814 points
in 26 games for a 31.3 average.
He transferred to SU a year ago
but, under eligibility require
ments, was forced to "sit out" a
year.

Crater Girds for District
Engagement With Ashland
Crater The Crater - high
Comets, expecting to meet an
improved Ashland Grizzly foot
ball team in District 6 A-l action
at Ashland Friday, have been
adapting their defense to meet
the threat of Grizzly split form
ation plays and passing.
The Comets have had a two
weeks lay-off from competition
and should be at near full
strength for the engagement.
They took it fairly light last
week but had one good scrim
mage. Fundamentals got much
review.
Earlier in the season Crater
would have been a heavy fav
orite for the skirmish. But the
Ashlanders seem to have finally
found themselves and are ex
pected to give the Comets just
about all the football they want.
The Grizzlies lost by a decisive
St. Mary's, Talent Fight
For Lone Lead in B Loop
St. Mary's of Medford and
Talent high collide on the Med
ford Senior high field Friday
night in the game which may
be the decider in the Jackson
County B league football chase.
Both clubs are unbeaten in
the circuit. Talent has licked
both Jacksonville and Rogue
River and will get a forfeit win
from Prospect. Friday's game
thereby completes its regular
loop slate. St. Mary's has bounc
ed Jacksonville and has taken
a forfeit from Prospect. It has
Rogue River yet to play. Friday
winner will be lone loop leader.
At St. Mary's this week coach
Millard Webb has aimed at im
proving the timing of the St.
Mary's offense. The squad may
be in healthy shape with the
exception of Jim Darland, full
back, who ran a knife in his
arm. Francis Murphy, tackle is
Swaps' Life
Depends on
Special Cast
Camden, N. J. (U.PJ The
life of Swaps, a million dollar's
worth of horseflesh, hung today
on two metal rods, a sling and
some plaster of plastic.
The items make up a specially-
designed cast around Swaps'
broken left hind leg and a rig to
keep it two inches off the floor
of his Garden State Park stall.
The cast, devised by Dr.
Jacques Jenney of the University
of Pennsylvania veterinary hos
pital, has immobilized Swaps'
maimed leg from the hock down
to promote healing and prevent
recurrence of last Sunday's bad
bump which aggravated a still
tender bone break below the
knee.

record-breaker four times and
fourth highest money winner in
American racing history with
earnings of $848,000.
Swaps, 1955 Kentucky Derby
winner, was reported resting
compfortably by his trainer, Me-
shack Tenney. But Tenney ad
mitted that additional injuries
or further aggravation of his
present plight, could put the
thoroughbred on the critical list.

offense this week to make up
for the loss of halfback Errol

Jim Duncan, who has been at
fullback, has taken over the
chores at the right half position
where Tresham played.
The Eagles go to Brookings

Brookings is in the southern

Prospect was cancelled last week
end the Crusaders of Medford
did not go idle. They played
the Crater high junior varsity
on Saturday evening and won
19 to 14. Due to a busy tele
phone earlier this week, the
outcome of the game did not
reach the Mail Tribune.
At Talent coach Dick Thorpe
has stressed offense this week
making alterations in the attack
in part to make up for the loss
of Phil Combs, tailback. Fred
Helm will step into the slot since
Combs is out with a hurt knee.
Thorpe feels that the Bulldogs
will be "up" for the game and
says that they are looking their
best of the season in practice.
Making their first start offense
will be Buzz Heard, end, nd
Jerry Rice and Bill Snyder,
guards. Other possible starters
are Ray Kaiser, end, Dick Brad

Leonard Warren may start Jerry
Kime and Fred Herrmann at
ends, Bill Morse and Dick Davis
at tackles, Roger Seaman and
Don Hubbard at guards and
Neil Green at center with Ray
Birge alternating. In the back-
field it should be Wayne Allen

McQuade are pushing Allen
Barnes at right half.
Carl Koellner probably will
pair with Kime at the defensive
flanks with Green and Birge
spelling Seaman and Hubbard
at guards. McQuade and Barnes
may be the linebackers with
Harrison and Lee Gossett at half

Possible starters for Ashland

"I don't know what the future

studying offers to move the club
to Los Angeles, San Francisco or
Louisville. "I am trying to work
out a solution, and I can't give
an answer as to whether the club

until after the club's board of

Sport of Kings, Court
Tennis Enjoying Revival
Washington The 700-year-
old game of court tennis
grandsire of lawn tennis, table
tennis, squash, rackets, and bad
minton at last has gone col
legiate.
The first International inter
collegiate match in this med
ieval game of kings was played
earlier this year in England be
tween American and British
teams. Though they lost the
meet, the eight American play
ers from Harvard, Yale, Prince
ton, and Pennsylvania, never
the less scored a triumph.
When the undergraduates
first took up the game two years
ago, hardly a one had even seen
a court, for none of their schools
maintain a place to play tennis.
Moreover, experts who trained
them on private courts claimed
that the exacting game couldn't
be mastered within five years.
The cc'.legians not only proved
the experts wrong but gave
their more experienced Oxford
Cambridge opponents a good
fight, and went on to play in
France, the original home of
court tennis.
Rackets Came Last
The game, as devised by
monks in the 13th century, was
first played with the hand. It
is still known in France as le
jeu de paurae." Frenchmen later
played with a glove, then with a
paddle and finally, a racket.
By 1600, the peak of the game's
popularity. Paris boasted some
1,800 courts. The game was well
established in England, too.
Henry VIII built several courts,
one of which, at Hampton Court
Palace, is still used.
Though clerics were barred
early from tennis play, the game
did not come into general dis
repute until the 17th century
when betting at public matches
became scandalous. Kings and
gentry continued to play priv
ately, but court tennis never
regained its former popularity.
Today, France has only two
courts; England, about 20. In
Braitain, where commoners
once jeeringly called the game
"Royal Tennis," it is now known
as tennis, or real tennis. The
total of American courts has
dropped from a high of 30, be
fore the World War I, to 7. The
reason, in part, lies in the min
imum price of a court: $175,000
Played on Walls and Roof
The court's 110-by-38-f o o t
cement floor is enclosed by four
cement walls 30 feet high. A
roofed shed, called the pent
house, runs around three walls.
It, and the several recesses in
the walls to which plays are
made are throwbacks to early
monastery architecture.
