Orange Bowl To Pay For Poor Teams Miami UP) There was a time when $440,000 would buy a whale of a football bowl game, but the Orange Bowl Commit tee realized today it would be paying that much next Jan. 1 for two low-rated teams. The New Year's game will be the "off year" under the Orange Bowl's tieup with the Atlantic Coast and Big seven confer ences. And it may turn into such an "off year" as to spell an end to the pact when it expires after the 1958 game. Under Big Seven rules, Okla homa, the perennial conference champ, cannot return to Miami two years in a row. The Sooners beat Maryland in last year's Orange tussle. That means the Big Seven will furnished its second-rated team and, by national standards, that outfit may even be third rate. The ACC still will send its champion, but its teams have had great fun so far this season losing to each other and particu larly to teams outside their con ference. Van C. Kussrow, past presi dent of the Orange Bowl Com mittee who lined up the original Big Seven-ACC pact two years ago, commented, "It's just as well Oklahoma can't come back next January; we wouldn't have anyone to match them."

King of Brush Ape Albert Horsley was born on March 18, 1866, in the Ontario Province, James Jerome Hill, had begun his career in West ern transportation. Hill and Horsley both began as poor boys on Canadian farms. Both took out for the U. S. A. as soon as tney were ame. aoia eventually made tracks for the Rocky Mountains. They wound up differently because they were of breeds far apart. Poor boy Hill, bush-bred, was a born empire builder. Poor boy Horsley was a natural brush ape who lived it up as the bloodiest killer of men that the Wild West ever knew. With him, gunplay was childish. His weapon was Roy Heffernan Rematched With Bull Montana Grants Pass Roy Heffernan, the sensational wrestling star from Australia, asked for and was granted a rematch with Bull Montana after their battle of last week. Action, as usual will be at the Josephine county fair grounds arena. There is only one catch in that Bull Montana, who lost last week on a foul, insisted that, if he met Heffernan again, there t BULL MONTANA Heffernan Foe Again would be no disqualification rule on the match. Heffernan agreed to this and offered to bet $100 on the side that he could beat Montana. Montana accepted and the match was made. The big boy from Australia wowed the crowd last week with his ability to come back and clobber Montana. He rocked Montana time and again with his wicked throat smashes and bulled his way out of a lot of holds through sheer strength. Every Trick Bull resorted to every trick that he could use which even tually led to his disqualification. This was a real brawl last week and anything can happen in this rematch. Bill Fletcher, just as tricky as- ever, will meet a fast and high ly rated newcomer in Frenchy Robierre from Montreal. Fletch er defeated Reg Siki in great style last week with his pet jack- knife and will be favored over Frenchy. Robierre was highly recommended by Luigi Macera. Extra seats will be set up to take care of the crowd. GOLF COURSE SOLD Portland U.P.)

He employed it to murder specified persons, singly, in fours or by the dozen for a price. Stewart Holbrook has told the true and inspiring Horatio Alger story of James J. Hill in a book that is prized by old "hoggers" and English profressors alike. Now he tells, in a new book entitled, "The Rocky Mountain Revolution," the blood-chilling true tale of Albert Horsley, alias Harry Orchard, a real-quill hell ion, horrible, hairy human. Saginaw Pinetop "The old Rocky Mountain dynamite man" became a Chris tian in his latter years. Orchard was indeed a complex charac ter with many stories in his makeup. Stewart Holbrook gives each his due, while shaping and gluing all of them into a fright ful image of the diabolic in the so-called human race. The latest story of all lets the soul of a saint shine through the being of the brush ape and mass murder er. Hols saw this aged Harry Orchard face to face, through long hours of interview at Ida ho State Penitentiary. He states the facts, most plainly. Yet they bear an aura of the miraculous. While Harry Orchard was yet youthful Albert Horsley, he worked his way down into the white pines of Michigan. Christ mas week, 1888, brought him, with some seven thousand oth er pinetop lumberjacks, down the sleigh hauls to Saginaw and Bay City then the lumber capitals of the world. Each town had its river front street, where the saloons roared and the red lights blazed, and each was cor rectly called "Hell's Half-Mile." Soon young Albert returned to Ontario. He married in haste, got into honest business, got out of it by way of larceny and ar son, abandoned wife and child, made off with another man's wife, and at last lit out for Idaho as "Harry Orchard." Hard Rock At first Harry Orchard was a mild-mannered milk-wagon dri ver in the Coeur d'Alenes mining town of Burke. Business oppor tunities came his way, but he failed them. He lived to gamble and was commonly a loser.

Hazardous Jobs Said Usually Safer Chicago (U.R) "Hazard ous jobs usually are safer than routine ones," a safety supervis or for the Northwestern Bell Telephone Co. told the 44th Na tional Safety Congress today. Glen Latshaw, Minneapolis, said the "large majority of seri ous or fatal injuries occur on everyday, routine jobs and most ly are caused by supervisory countenance of . . . so-called minor wrong habits." Latshaw said minor bad habits of an individual can be correct ed by observing his or her work operation during the progress of a job, thus providing for the worker's safety. ' he drifted into a job of mucking in the h Tiger-Poorman mine. Orchard joined the Western Federation of Miners' local. Thus he enter ed a war that had been raging since 1891 between the Federa tion and the Rocky Mountain Mine Owners Protective associ ation. Holbrook begins the history of his war on Page 31 of his 318 page book. He sets a vast stage of tragedy, in depth to the or ganization of the first union of hard-rock miners, year of 1863, and projecting the birth of the Industrial Woskers of the World from the revolutionary elements in the Western Federation of Miners. It was all hell, for it was all war. Orchard, Federation dyn amiter, typified one side of it. Charlie Siringo, spy and gunman for the association, was another breed of hellion. In the end, Wil liam Edgar Borah and Clarence Darrow were opposing champ ions of the war. The Orchards and the Siringos only did the killings. The crimes of Harry Orchard in the Rocky Mountains were concluded with the dynamiting of ex-Governor Frank Steunen berg at Caldwell, Idaho, after nightfall on December 30, 1905. Orchard confessed, and thus was spared the rope. He died in Boise prison April 13, 1954. And now lives again in Stewart Hol brook's surging prose.

Nixon's campaign party whistle stopped through the heart of la bor powerful Michigan today ra diating confidence every mile of the way. Nixon himself exudes confi dence at every stop and he is plugging hard for the GOP state and congressional tickets. Votes Said in Bag Michingan Republican leaders have expressed confidence that the state's 20 electoral votes are 'in the bag" for President Eis enhower and Nixon. State Chair man John Feikens predicted the GOP presidential ticket will win by more than its 320,000 victory margin of four years ago. But GOP strategists privately are far less optimistic about the congressional and gubernatorial battles in the state where Walter Reuther's United Auto Workers are a potent force. Presidential Race Rivaled The gubernatorial battle, in which Democratic Gov. G. Men nen Williams is seeking an un precedented fifth term, is rival ing the presidential race in in terest. Williams is opposed by Detroit Mayor Albert E. Cobo, who was slated to accompany the Nixon party today. Nixon, whose 13-car "Dick Nixon Special," is following vir tually the same route Adlai E. Stevenson took last week, is striking back at Democratic cam paign charges that President Eisenhower's is "a big business" administration .
