Past Scores May Mean Little
In Ashland-C rater Conflict
Past figures could very well
well prove meaningless when
the two clabs clash on Friday
night, but going by compara
tive scores Crater high's foot
ball eleven rates as at least a
slight favorite for its conflict
with Ashland.
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

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. Lake Mead
Yacht club members and the
sponsoring Sahara hotel could
not solve the mystery- of
whether the buoys sank, were
stolen or just drifted out into
the outer confines of the huge
lake behind Hoover dam.

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.

Chicago - (UPD - Compliance
with National Collegiate Ath

"improved markedly" in the
past two years and hence the

first time in 12 meetings, fail

rules violations.

Walter Byers disclosed that
15 cases of alleged violations
are pending and that 20 oth
ers are under preliminary in
vestigation. -
Two schools, Indiana and
