C$yt, David
At Modrick This Evening
Only iwo defeats in two years!
That is the almost unbeliev
able record of the Harlem
Clowps ho play the House of
David quint this evening in a
tussle between barnstorming
basketball teams at Hedrick Jun
ior High school gym. Game time
is 8 p.m.
Clown record is all the more
unbelievable when it is realized
that the club has played almost
300 ball Barnes in the two years
The Haxlems actually had a total
win skein of 253 games before
dropping a close contest in Can
ada last season. They finished
the 1955 campaign with 98
straight (vins and went on to
take 143 consecutive scraps in
the 1955-1956 campaign. They
were beaten early in the 1956-
1957 slate.
Long David History
While the Clowns have a col
orful history, the records of
their foes dates back farther
and involve baseball as well as
basketball. House of David
basketball originated in the
1920s in Benton Harbor, Mich.,
home of the David colony. Play
ers of the team have a special
distinction inJthat all are beard
ed. Whiskers"' are their trade
markThe Davids have develop
ed a popular following over the
years, o
The Davids currently are
playing a series of tilts with
the Clowns.
; George Anderson is the long
time member of the Davids
traveling contingent. He's been
manager since the 1930s. The
younger hands do the playing
these days.
Remarkable
Clown record for last season
was 148 wins and two defeats.
This is all the more remarkable
when it is considered that the
Clowns play a different team
every night, often seven nights
a week, and travel from 150 to
300 miles between each game.
Unlike some traveling clubs
that always carry their own op
position, the Harlem Clowns
lake on a variety of foes and
some ofCJhem are very rough.
Home town teams would like-l
very much to beat the Clowns.
With their razzle dazzle pass
ing routines and comedy stuff,
the Clowns often find them
selves in tight situations, hav
ing only a one or two point
advantage with seconds left to
play. A long field goal by the
opposition in such a situation
could easily upset the tremend
ous record they have compiled.
Victory is essential but not
all-important to the Harlem
Clowns. Fans come to see them
put on a good basketball show
plus a lot of comedy and the
Harlem boys try their best to
please.
Score 188 in Game
John Barber, 6-6, is the tall
est of the Harlem club. He was
a Los (Angeles State collegian
where he once scored 188 points
in a game. He was seventh rank
ing scorer in the nation one sea
son Snri gained All-American
laurels. Next tallest is Ken Mc-
Bride, 6-4, long range shooter
from Maryland State. Bob
Woods follows at 6-3, comic star

Warning of
Lawmaker
Washington (IP) Baseball
has been warned that any at
tempt by the New York Yankees
to bar the switch of a National
league team to New York City
could lead to congressional ac
tion. ' 'Self-serving efforts to main
tain a baseball monopoly in New
York City is proof positive that
Congress must curb the powers
of these baseball magnates,"
Chairman Emanuel Celler (D
N.Y.), of the House anti-trust
subcommittee said Wednesday.
The Yankees, citing the terms
of their original American
league charter, have claimed the
entire New York area becomes
their territory with the transfer
of the New York Giants and
Brooklyn Dodgers to San Fran
cisco. Another Team
Baseball Commissioner Ford
Frick, on the other hand, has
expressed the belief that the way
should be kept open for another
team to move into New York.
The matter came up at the re
cent major league meetings in
Colorado Springs but was post
poned until the next joint meet
ing on Jan. 25.
The city of New York has ap
pointed a four-man committee to
investigate the possibility of lur
ing another team to New York.
However, the committee is hold
ing off direct action until the
territorial status is cleared up.

Unusual Rainfall
Boon in Midwest
Chicago TP) Unusually
heavy rainfall this year has been
a boon to midwestern farmers,
but it may cost industry thous
ands of dollars because of rust.
A study by the Foundation for
Management Research, (under
taken for Rust-Oleum Corp.), said
that the nation's annual rust loss
of 71 2 billion dollars "may show
a decided increase."
The foundation said unusually
heavy rainfall occurred over in
dustrialized western New York,
western Pennsylvania, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois, Missouri and Ken
tucky. Th& rate of industrial rust is
determined by metal test panels
placed at factory sites.
The study showed that rust
loss in Ne England for the first
half of 1957 was below normal.
But corrosion reports from
Buffalo, Detroit, Cleveland,
Youngstown, Toledo, Akron,
South Bend, Gary, Grand Rapids,
Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Louis,
Cincinnati, Pittsburgh and other
industrial areas in the Great
Lakes, Mississippi Valley and
Ohio River regions indicate high
er than usual rust damage.
Burlington, Vt. (IP) An ad
vertisement in a Vermont news
paper read: "Grow rich with
poultry! Immediate action advis
able as the opportunity may not
exist after the next winastorm."
Raiders Will Battle
Linf ield Contingent
Ashland A rugged early sea

Saturday night.
They are hosts in their spaci

college. The Wildcats are defend
ing Northwest conference cham
pions and brag two loop all-stars
in Bill Machamer and Jack
Riley.
The Red Raiders of the Rogue
were to have a light drill today
as they tapered off for the two
game stand. They scrimmaged
last night, runing what is expect
ed to be Linfield's offense
against their own defense.
Probable Starters
There were indications that
Jim McAbee and Ron Maurer, a
pair of rugged guards will get
the assignments of guarding the
'Cat one-two punch Machamer
and Riley. Other probable start
ers for SOC are Norm Oliva and
Dave D'Olivo, forwards, and
Bill Hollingsworth, center. Cliff
Sutherland, tall freshman who
did fine backboard work against
Humboldt State, and Chuck
Crandall, hard-working guard,
probably will see much duty.

Fanfare
Larry Copple, all-state hoop
ster for Medford high in 1955,
has been the talk of the town
in Corvallis this week. Copple
is a junior at Oregon State col
lege. As a sophomoer he did not
see action on the OSC varsity
last season and this year he
wasn't particularly being count
ed. But in three games the ex
Tornado has picked up 22 points
to rank third in scoring on the
Orange squad.
Beaver fans are hoping that
the previously unsung reserve
will continue to show accuracy,
thereby bolstering the depth of
the OSC roster. All of Larry's
points have been on field goals.
MORRIS HONORED AGAIN
Howard Morris, Ihe Linfield

achievement is selection to the
Williamson rating system Lit

he was named to the Asso

and to All-Coast and con
ference and northwest all-star
teams. Morris was starter in
every game for Linfield
throughout his four-year 'col
legiate grid career.
JACK GREB STARS

, Brisbane, Australia (IP) Jit
tery Herb Flam, who turned ti

poised Vic Seixas, who ignored
the taunts of the crowd, scored
wins today that virtually put
the United States into the Davis
Cup challenge round against
Australia.
Singles victories by the two
Americans in man-killing 100
degree heat at Milton Courts
gave the United States an almost
unbeatable 2-0 lead over Bel
gium in the interzone cup finals.
Flam, brooding and nervous
for the last two weeks, forgot
his cares and rallied to beat Bel
gium's Jacques Brichant, in a
6-3, 4-6, 1-6, 6-3, 6-3 battle that
lasted one hour and 12 minutes
and broke the Belgians' hearts.
Seixas did it the easy way,
overwhelming 33-year-old Phil
ippe Washer, 6-0, 6-3, 6-4, in the
last of today's two matches.
Now all the United States
needs is a doubles victory Fri
day by Seixas and Gardner Mul

to clinch this series and with it
a berth in the challenge round
against cup-holding Australia at

FRONT OFFICE STYMIES
Bobby Gene Smith, ex-Hood

comment recently in the Hood

year, his star burned bright early
in the season, then faded to ob
scurity due to the kind of front
office strategy you can always
criticize but never accurately
second guess."
Smith was the victim of line
up shuffling and changes which
had him playing in spots as a
utility man on a team which
couldn't find a regular outfield
combination. However, he seem

Muniing and Fashing
Southern (Oregon
By MEL
The question has often been
tossed about as to just how
lucky is a "lucky" sportsman.
By lucky angler or hunter I
refer to those who seem to get
the game they go after when the
average fail. How much then, of
this success is luck?
Several years ago in Portland
there were two or three men
who were eliminated from the
salmon derbies due to their un
canny ability to bring in the
largest fish year after year and
thus "hog" the contest. More
recently in Klamath Falls a boy
in his late teens was pointed out
as being able to bring in the
ducks "when there weren't any."
Luck? I don't think so.
It is understood readily that
there is an element of chance
in anything and two men of
equal skill could be in equal
spots as afar as possibilities
were concerned and the one find
a greater concentration of game
than the other. It would be hard
to find two equal sections of the
river for the schools of fish do
move upstream and more are
sometimes found in one place
than in the other, but I would
like to discuss the average over
all picture.
KNOWS HABITS
Generally the "lucky" sports
man is ihe one- who has made
a study of the game he seeks.
He knows the feeding, sleep
ing and moving habits to such
a degree that he is able to pre
dict with reasonable accuracy
where the game will be under
given conditions and relates
himself to these.
For instance, ihe irout fish
ermen knows that in ihe early
morning and late evening the
trout will be feeding at the
very tail end of the pool and
thus he carefully approaches
and drops his flies near the
break in ihe very shallow wa
ters. During the middle of the
day when ihe irout are in the
deeper waters or hiding near
obstructions he ignores these
shallow portions entirely.
The good duck hunter knows
that water and food are first
io be considered. A band of
ducks that swarm into a cer
tain field in the late evening
will return at the break of
day to ihe same field unless
a full moon has allowed them
to feed all night in which case
ihey usually go back to water
in the early dawn and skip
their morning flight.
DUCKS HAVE HIGHWAYS
The ducks usually fly into or
directly away from a strong
wind, not quartering. When the
wind changes so does the hunter
because he knows that the flight
will shift with the wind. Ducks
have "highways" to and from
their feeding grounds and many
times these will pass over hills
especially through gas or saddles.
On a windy or foggy day when
they have to fly "instruments"
the thinking hunter hies himself
to these spots and has a real ball.
FINDS PATHS
Migratory fish have definite
paths they follow upstream
and the successful fisherman
learns io find these places and
when fishing he concentrates
in working his bait only in
these places. The average fish
erman sees the river and all
that nice water and plunks
here and there at random then
wonders why he doesn't catch
fish. When he does he calls
it luck and that is what it is.

IMPORTANT
This knowing the bottom is
especially important in steel-
heading because they are very
strict in their adherence to fol
lowing certain well defined
routes. There are a couple of
methods of learning where the
steelhead run. One is to study
the currents of top water which
tell a tale of what is underneath
and the other is to map it with
the sinker. I shall take up these
two methods in detail in next
week's column.
NOT HAPHAZARD
Today I would like io em
phasise that hunting and fish
ing is not a haphazard pursuit
but one that will pay divi
dends if one loves it enough
to study and what an inter
esting study ii is. I believe
that much of ihe so-called luck
is not luck but planned action
that ultimately yields success.
Someone has said that in

Racehorse Play
Wine for lllini
By UNITED PRESS
Illinois' sophomore-reinforced
sharpshooters are shaping up as
a solid contender in the Big- Ten
with a racehorse strategy that
lets the rebounds fall where
they may.
The experts say . the lllini
can't go very far because they
lack an essential good big man.
But they're averaging 88.6
points for their first three games
and Wednesday night they
scored a 91-75 triumph over a
Butler team that conquered Big
Ten powerhouse Ohio State. The
lllini beat Marquette, 100-90,
and DePaul, 75-70, in their first
two games.
Mannie Jackson, 62Vi lllini
forward, canned 13 field goals
for 26 points while guard Bob
Plump of Butler was game high
scorer with 31 points.
