o STATE A-l HOOP MEET BEGINS TUESDAY NIGHT; TEAMS' RECORDS TOLD University of Oregon, Eugene Oregon's greatest sports week, the 39th annual A-l high school basketball tournament, opens at McArthur Court Tuesday eve ning and when the 16 prep teams are through firing next Satur day night one will be crowned the 1957 state champion. The action begins with Lincoln playing St. Helens and the sec ond game of the opening session pits Benson against Astoria. The other six games of the first round will be played Wednesday with Marshfield and Klamath Falls tangling in the opener fol lowed by North Salem and On tario. In the afternoon the two games pit Grant against McMinn ville and Central Catholic aeainst Redmond. The final pair l the evening match Eugene with Medford and Albany with Pendleton. Lincoln, Central Catholic, Kla math Falls and Eugene have been installed as the early fav orites to replace Franklin as the champion, but past tournaments have proven that regular season records are not a guaranty of tournament success and a dark horse could easily move into the championship picture. Tourney-Wis Fi.ld The bulk of the field is tournament-wise, with only Grant of Portland more than three years away from its last appearance SUMMARY OF 19ST A-t STATE TOURNAMENT TEAMS Team - DiiL Albany 8-1 ...

Mustachioed Walt, the ex Marine who was a 6-1 underdog before he snapped the 12-straight winning streak of sensational Sugar Hart before 2.400 at Mad ison Square Garden Fri., night, attributed the victory to his re markable speed and turtle-shell attack. "I got my speed and elusive ness while playing basketball at Brandeis High school against taller fellows." explained Mr. Upset. "And I figured out the turtle-shell offense on my own because I was always boxin' taller fellows while learning in the Marines." Byars. weighing 144?4 pounds to Hart's 1454, won the. unani mous decision in. lopsided fash ion on a rounds basis: 6-2-2, 7-3 and 8-0-2.

Dave Gambee, leading scorer in the PCC, picked up 26 points, hitting nine from the field and having a perfect eight-for-eight night at the foul line. Oregon State held a 13 point bulge at 46-33 with 15 minutes to go in the game. Oregon, sparked by Hal Duffy, cut the spread to five points in the next ten minutes and trailed by only 48-43 with five minutes to go. Take Up Slack Gambee and Ken Nanson took up the slack in the Beaver scor ing at that point and quickly pulled Oregon State out of dan ger and into another 13 point margin at the game's end. The first half was give and take with the score knotted eight times before Oregon State finally went into the intermission with Cal Bears Keep 1st Place Hold by Beating Trojans By UNITED PRESS University of Caliornia re tained its lead in '.he Pacific Coast conference basketball race Friday night with a 61 to 55 vic tory over University of Southern California while University of Washington kept in the running for a co-title by barely salvaging a win from Washington State college, 73-72. In the other game Oregon State college clipped University of Oregon 75 to 62. California definitely had its eye on the title Friday night. The Bears raced to a 15 to 6 lead early in the game and held a 38 to 26 lead at halftime. Cali fornia stayed about 10 points in front right up to the closing min utes of the game, when the Tro jans rallied to make it 53 to 57. The Bears froze the ball and capitalized on Trojan fouls. Guard Earl Robinson of Cal led scorers with 17 poiiits, while Phil Dye had 13 for Troy. Cal's Larry Friend and USC's Danny Rogers, a pair of potent scorers, were held to 13 and 11 points, respectively. The Huskies started against Washington State according to the script, loafing to a 31 to 22 halftime lead. Then suddenly the Cougars were holding a one point edge with only four min utes remaining. Washington got back a one point lead and stalled out the last minute and 50 sec onds. Washington State won the battle of the sharpshooters, how ever.

However, Len nie Rosenbluth once again proved he is one of the nation's leading clutch players, pouring in three points in the final 46 seconds to earn North Carolina a 61-59 victory. South Carolina followed up its surprise victory over Duke by downing second - seeded Mary land, 74-64, in their semi-final game.

IOC Prexy Demands Site For Games San Francisco (U.R) Avery Brundage, president of the IOC, moved in on Squaw Valley's land row Saturday by demand ing "unqualified assurance" from the organizing committee that the 1960 Winter Olympic Games will be held there as planned. Negotiations for buying 32 acres of needed land bogged down yesterday when Wayne Poulsen, owner of the property, refused to sell the land to the state and submitted some count er proposals. Committee President Prentis C. Hale said that the land was essential for staging the games and "without it, we're dead." Brundage then sent a tele gram to Hale which concluded: "I have complete confidence that the California State Legis lature will give us the tools with which to complete the job of preparing for the 1960 winter Olvmpic Games, Hale said. Brundage has been one of Squaw Valley's strongest critics.

Bums Due in LA Maybe Next Year Los Angeles (U.PJ Mayor Norris Poulson predicted Satur day that the Brooklyn Dodgers would move to Los Angeles soon possibly next year. Indicating that provision of a stadium and certain other nec essities was all that stood in the way, Poulson said that negoti ations with O'Malley had pro gressed to the point "that with any consummation the Dodgers would have to come out and play in temporary quarters next year for the simple reason they'll fail to draw crowds at Brooklyn if it is known they're going to move." Ball Official Claims Game 'Big Business' Washington (U.R) An official of the Washington Baseball club said Saturday that baseball is a business the Supreme Court notwithstanding and Congress should so declare it. "And it's Big Business," C. Leo DeOrsey, said in a United Press interview in which he pro posed a drastic overhaul of the present baseball system to coun ter congressional monopoly charges. DeOrsey. newest member of the Washington's club's direct orate and counsel for the Griff ith family which owns control- ing interest, proposed that: Coast Cities Included 1 The American and Nation- PAL Boxing Card To Be March 23rd Medford Police Athletic league will hold its next boxing card on Saturday, March 23, at Hed- nck Junior high gymnasium.

Le roy Umbarger, Chuck Kimball, Rex Howe, Doug Patten, Donald Eskew and Rusty Smith appear ed on the Prospect high smoker.

Boston Athlete Leaves Fiance Vienna U.R) Boston athlete Harold Connolly reluctantly left his Olympic sweetheart behind in Czechoslovakia Saturday. But he pledged "I am not going back to the States without her." Time ran out on Connolly's romance in Prague with Czech Olympic star Olga Fikotova whom he met in Melbourne. His visa expired and he had to fly to Vienna today. "I have applied for a Polish visa, and they promised to give it to me. If I get it I will leave for Poland within five days," Connolly said. "I also intend to apply for a new 'czech visa, and will con tinue the fight until I succeed," he added. EXPERT LUBE and WASH JOB $1.75 each SPEGIAL TBA SALES and SERVICE Motor Expertly Tuned $1250 Up At Your Service 24 Hours FREE PICKUP and DELIVERY Riverside and Jackson Call 3-3337 WALT'S TEXACO Sunday, March 10, 1957 al leagues be replaced by a sin gle league of 16 teams with an eastern and western division comprised of eight teams each. He said this would meet one of the chief criticisms that the present setup is monopolistic and would pave the way for Los Angeles and San Francisco to become Major League cities. 2 A limit be placed on the number of farm teams and farm players a Major League club can have because "The greatest monopoly in baseball is the farm system." DeOrsey said in this way, Big League baseball could "stop some of the New York Yankees dominance by limiting the number of players they can have." 3 Revise the controversial reserve clause because "you are going to arrive at a situation where you can't hold on to your ball player forever." -He sug gested an "option clause" type contract under which a club could hold on to a player for a "certain term of usefulness say under 10 years for so much for one year with an option for other years." Disagrees With Supreme Court DeOrsey, noted Washington tax lawyer who represents Ar thur Godfrey and other notables, said he disagrees with "the con clusion reached by the Supreme Court that there's a difference between football and baseball." "I disagree with the idea that baseball is a hobby," he said. "I think it is a business, and a big business. My vote as a mem ber of the Washington club's board of directors will be cast along business lines; not hobby lines." The Supreme Court ruled Feb. 25 that football is a business and subject to the anti-trust laws. In 1922 the tribunal held that baseball is a sport and not sub ject to the laws. The baseball ruling has gone undisturbed since. But the court, in its foot ball ruling, invited Congress to take a close look at baseball's exempt status. It said then that the "orderly way to eliminate error or discrimination, if any there be, is by legislation and not by court decision." The Axemen have compiled a record of 18 victories and four losses, dropping two games to Marshfield and one each to Bend and North Bend. Charles Warren, 6-4 all-starter, is the big gun of the Axemen. He has totaled 484 points for a 22 point . per game average this season. Warren has connect ed with 41 per cent accuracy from the field and 72 per cent from the free line. He Is the Axemen's leading rebound re triever. Don Lawrence, 6-2, and Craig Bushman, 6-2V4, are with War ren lettermen back from 1955 1956. Dave Coe, 5-11, follows Warren in the scoring totals with 194, while Lawrence has contributed 133. Neil Goldsmith, 6-1, has put in 95, Lynn Coons, 5-8, has 93 and Bushman 81. Izaak Waltonian State Directors Will Convene Portland State directors anc" local chapter presidents of Ore gon division, Izaak Walton league, will hold their annual meeting Saturday, March 23, at Salem, according to Dr. Alfred J.
