Best way to avoid buying mistakes is to use the basic rule of sound buy ing: A good brand is your best guarantee. Whatever you buy, you know the maker stands behind a good brand. You can't go wrong.

Backing him is Eldon Francis a capable ball player from Medford in his freshman year of play. Phil Sword is slated for catching chores and may al ternate with Ron Maurer in the outfield. Sword, too, is a long ball hitter. The outfield is made up of Leroy King in left, Ron Maurer in center and Jim McAbee in right. King has a fine throwing arm according to Schopf and all three can hit the ball solid. Ray Weinhold and Al Ki mura are the outfield reserves in any field. Weinhold has been hitting the ball extreme ly solid in practice and quite possibly will see action in the coming games. For relief hurling duties Kermit McLemore is on Ijand along with Dale Walters and Jim Eggers. Eggers has the big fast ball and has been ef fective in early season play. To date the Raiders have a one win and two lost rec ord and will be out to bring up the win side this next week of play. LA Dodgers Like Early Grid Pros Phoenix, Ariz. (IP) Chica go Cub owner i'nii wrigiey today compared the move of the Dodgers to Los Angeles to play baseball in the Coliseum to the early days of profes- ! sional football when games I were played almost exclusive ; ly in baseball parks. "It didn't look like football until it got on its own field," said Wrigiey. But Wrigiey angrily denied ! -he ever said the .huge co1-- seum was unfit for baseball. The Cub executive, contact ed at his palatia" nome over looking the exclusive Bilt more Estates in Northeast Phoenix, said that with the 105,000 seat capacity of the coliseum, the Dodgers un doubtedly would haye high attendance records. More Adequate Wrigiey agreed that the Wrigiey field in Los Angeles where the Cubs' former prin cipal .farm club, the Angels, once held forth, would have been more adequate for base ball. "I'm sorry big league base ball had to come to Los An geles to be played in a foot ball stadium, because first impressions are important," he said. But Wrigiey said he could understand the Dodgers choice of the coliseum for the first couple of seasons. Dodger owner Walter O'Malley has plans for a "fine baseball park" in Los Angeles as soon as various complica tions including the Chav ez Ravine referendum are cleared up, Wrigiey went on. Wrigiey maintains a winter residence here, and the Cubs train at nearby Mesa, Ariz. ansa NBA Stars Have Array Of Talent University of Oregon, Eu gene Oregon basketball fans will be treated to one of the greatest arrays of scoring tal ent in the world at McArthur Court on Friday, April 18, when the Oregon club pre sents the National Basketball Association all-star game be tween the top players from the eastern and western divi sions of the league. Nine of the top 10 scorers in the NBA wil be on hand here for the game with five on the east squad and four on the west team. The group includes George Yardley of Detroit for the West, who set a new NBA record for a sin gle season this year when he tallied over 2,000 points, and Adolph Schayes of the Syra cuse Nationals, who broke the all-time career record this winter when he ran his total to 12,565 points. Yardley and Schayes ran one-two in the . scoring race in 1958 and were followed by Bob Pettit of St. Louis (24.6 points per game), Clyde Lovelette of Cincinnati (23.4), Paul Arizin of Philadelphia (20.7), Bill Sharman of Boston (22.3), Cliff Hagan of St. Louis (19.9), Neil Johnston of Philadelphia (19.5) and Ken Sears of New York (18.6). Yardley, Pettit, Lovellette, and Hagan are members of the Western team and the oth er five are set to play for the East. Boston's sensational Bob Cousy was not among the top 10 for the first time in several years because in juries sidelined him for about 10 games and limited his ac tion to part-time duty in a number of others. NBA figures for the past season show that it doesn't pay to foul the Easterners as the top four sharpshooters from the foul line all will be playing for the East. Schayes hit a amazing .904 percentage or better than nine out of 10, while Sharman was right behind him with a !893 aver age. Cousy hit 85 per cent of his .'chances and the fourth man was Carl Braun of New York, who connected 84.9 per cent-of the time. Tickets for the all-star at traction are now on sale at McArthur Court. I Major Loopers May Be Found At Young Age Portland IIPI Dr. Creigh ton Hale, director of research for Little League baseball, says major leaguers of the future may be discovered at the age of 12 or even young er. Dr. Hale, speaker at the closing' banquet of the Pa cific District Recreation con ference, said a series of phys ical and mental tests have been developed which can be used to determine necessary characteristics of a major leaguer. He said that from these tests it is possible to compare the youngster with his counterparti n the major leagues. The tests include 77 differ ent studies of the human body plus finding on reflexes and reactions. Dr. Hale said the tests could tell who was a long ball hitter without . the player being seen in. action. U. S. Leadership Said Lacking in Creative Thinking (Continued from Page 1 How then could anyone construe this as any kind of victory for the Russians?, At most this propaganda might, for a short time, tend to im press certain groups here and abroad who by now ought to know better. There is, of course, only one reason why even this ob vious propaganda is having some effect on some people, and that is because our lead ership is lacking in action and creative thinking and a clear cut and consistent program. Such lack of leadership pro vides opportunities for the Soviets to practice their crafty propaganda techniques. Danger Growing We have been sitting still while Russia has been act ing and advancing. As a con sequence of our failure to ! act and to lead, Russian ex pansion and penetration in the Middle East and the Far East is continuing and the danger to the West is growing. Yet we have been hard oif our friends and at times have driven them to despair by our vacillating policies. It is not Russian propa ganda that gained expansion for the Soviets. It has been Russian action as against our inaction. . I would say,, therefore, our leadership lead. Let us have bold and imaginative pro grams and let us act in a way that will restore the confi dence of the free world in our Jrue strength and pur poses! And let us keep in mind, as we are faced with the monumental problem of deal ing with unrestricted nuclear experiments and atomic wea pons, tnat 4U,uuu,uuu peopie were killed in the last war by conventional weapons. The real test facing human ity is how to prevent another war. Unless we can prevent g another war in this age, the , g choice of clean bombs or dirty ' 5 bombs or tests or suspension of tests are secondary. History of Uncertainity I realize, of course, that one of the difficulties of deal in? with tile Russians is the incf oHilit-ir nf thmi" loarlprchin ! Soviet dictatorships have a j history of uncertainty of j tenure and reversals of policy i as succeeding dictators seek to discredit or disavow their predecessors. (. What are the chances of any : commitments made by a Rus- sian dictator having validity j or durability? Khrushchev is now supreme : ruler in the Kremlin. He has j been pressing for another meeting at the summit. - Khrushchev has been ex- j ploiting Russian scientific j achievements to browbeat the I West and intimidate the satel- ; lites. Khrushchev prefers bi-; lateral meetings to working through the United Nations. In fact, Khrushchev wants to use a summit meeting to get around the United Na tions, especially on the ques tion of disarmament. Let Him Come To UN There can be no genuine disarmament except through the United Nations and a system of international con trol and inspection. Therefore if Khrushchev seeks another summit con ference let him come to New York and make his proposals before the United Nations. And our Government should invite and encourage him to do so. This may provide a' fitting ocasion to take up the ques tion of a joint common ef fort by the United States, Great Britain and Russia for development and control of atomic energy for the benefit and security of all nations, and for peace.

The President will be look ing for a lew-altitude spot with good golf course and good fishing nearby. The mountains are out because of the heart attack he suffered in Denver, Colo., in 1955.
