The two aggregations are adversaries in Southern Ore gon conference action at Ash land with kick-off time set for 8 p.m. By means of direct com parison Grants Pass beat Ash land 33 to 7 and Crater 26 to 7. Ashland edged Yreka, Calif., 6 to 0 and Crater tiirn med that same crew 33 to 18.

Unrestricted Draft Rule for Baseball Studied by New York -(UPD- A new un restricted draft rule, which also would curtail large bonus payments to untried players, is under study today by major league baseball officials. The proposal was made by a nine-man committee headed by Cleveland's Frank Lane and presented to Commission er Ford Frick Wednesday. The committee's recommen dations will be passed on of ficially to the club owners during the winter meetings in Washington, D. C, in Decem ber. Sahara Cup Run Buoys Disappear Los Angeles -fliPD- Off icials of the Sahara Cup powerboat races today hoped no further "missing buoy" mysteries would plague them as they tried to compress the two-day unlimited hydroplane events into a single day of action. - After hours of delay Wed nesday, trials for the powerful boats in quest of the national championship were postponed until this morning because tne buoys could not be replaced in time. 30-Mile Finals As a result two of the trials were rescheduled during the morning hours on Lake Mead Two were to be held in the afternoon and also the 30-mile final. The buoys had all been nlaced. surveyed and found satisfactory. But during the "night they disappeared. National Park service officials.

Grizzlies Win Four Friday's scrape will be the eighth betwen the Grizzlies and Crater. Ashland has won four of the previous tangles and Crater two. The 1954 tiff was tied 7 to 7. Ashland verdicts have been 19 to 6 in 1951, 26 to 7 in 1952, 20 to 14 in 11953 and 19 to 12 last year. Crater won 26 to 13 in 1955 and 32 to 12 in 1956. The Grizzlies decision over the Comets last year was earn- Majors The unrestricted draft idea which probably will be strongly opposed by such pow erful teams as the New York Yankees and Milwaukee Braves would enable clubs to draft any minor league player regardless of his ex perience in 1959. The majors can draft any players who have four years of minor league experience at $25,000 each under the present rule. Lane, speaking for the group, said "reasonable limi tations" on the payment of huge bonuses to untried play ers should be put into effect. There has tfeen strong oppo sition, even from the richer clubs, to the policy of handing out huge bonuses year after year. - ; Sam Smith, president of the Alabama-Florida league, said the proposed bonus curtail ment would leave the major league free to funnel addition al money to the hard-pressed minors.
