Patterson Invited To Baltimore Baltimore-flJPD-Fight-hungry Baltimore cordially invited Floyd Patterson today to visit the city and be convinced that's where he should meet Sonny Liston in their return heavyweight title bout. Champion Liston is so Bal timore conscious that on Thursday he called off his tentatively scheduled match with Patterson at Miami Beach, April 4, and demand ed that Floyd fight him at Baltimore in May if he wants the return shot. Lou Grasmick, wealthy Baltimore lumber dealer, and civic leader, said today, "I've wired an invitation to Floyd to come and inspect Baltimore s new $ 4 million civic center, and meet our Civic Center commissioners and our boxing commission ers and a flock of other people." Grasmick added that he had told Floyd to bring his advisor, attorney Julius No vember, and members of his training-camp entourage, and the promoters from Cham pionship Sports, Inc., and other friends. "I told Floyd that Balti more is hungry for a fig fight and that no metropolis in the world would welcome his fight more heartily."

This week's games have a starting time of 8 p.m. The Raiders expect a tough game against OCE after suf fering three defeats and win ning one from the Wolves dur ing the course of last season.

Southern Oregon hit 26 of 64 attempts the first game to give them a .406 average. In the second game the SOC team put in 24 of 56 for a .482. The Raiders finished the week end with an impressive 441. Predictions are hampered by the fact that OCE and SOC did not meet at the tip-off tourney which saw Oregon College in the finals. The Wolves last defeat came Tues day night when they dropped a game to Pacific 70-54. COOLING OFF ASKED Los Angeles -(UPD- Herschel Smith, who as director of the Los Angeles Invitational in door meet is one of the men caught in the middle of the track and field dispute, called this week for a "cooling-off" period in the battle. HEADQUARTERS MOVED San Diego, Calif. - IUPD - American Football league headquarters will be In New York City effective June 1. The AFL franchise owners voted unanimously Thursday night to move from Dallas. League commissioner Joe Foss, who opposed the move in the past, told the owners he has spent so much time in New York lately that he feels at home there. Valley Denies Oakland Raider Shift Report San Diego -(UPD- Will the Oakland Raiders be playing next season in Portland? Yes, says a report from New York. No, says Wayne Valley, president of the Raid ers. Doubt also was expressed in Portland. The report said Valley had been given permission by oth er American Football league owners to move his franchise to Portland. Formal approval of the move could come this week end during a meeting of own ers here, the report said. Meanwhile, Valley, who also is president of the AFL, Issued a statement Thursday that there is "no truth" to the report. The Raiders, the week sis ter of the American league both on the field and at the gate for the past three years, recently acquired the draft rights to Oregon State's Terry Baker from the San Diego Chargers. Baker also has been drafted by the Los Angeles Rams of the National Football league. So far Baker has not Indi cated with whom he will sign.

Whitman 51 Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DaVoss Sport fishing regulations for the 1963 season were open for discussion at a public hearing today, at the game commissions Portland headquarters. During the hearing winter and summer regulations for all game fish will be consider ed. Following a two-week in terval and publication of ten tative rules, a second hearing will be called on Friday, Jan. 25. At the second hearing the game commission will adopt the final angling regulations for the 1963 season. SAY YOUR PIECE Although all parsons are invited to attend tha regula tions hearing, it's a far place from hart to there and lh only way those of us in tha southern part of tha state get much of a hearing is by writ ing tha gams commission re garding our reactions to tha tentativ rules for this year or tha rules of last year. Another way of getting your oar in Is by talking to tha local fisheries biolglst either as an individual or as a member of a sportsman's or ganisation. Public reaction to tha tentativ regulations can have an affect upon tha final regulations, but this may be viewed with soma skepticism by those who disagree with gam commission policy. Be that as it may, in policy of th commission must have a sounder bas than ih pre judices of a few. TURN IT IN Salmon and steelhead an glers are reminded by the game commission that the time is at hand to return their 1962 salmon and steelhead punch cards. Outlets for fish ing and hunting licenses have been provided with boxes in which the cards may be placed. The expired punch cards may also be mailed di rectly to the commission of fice in Portland. Information recorded on the punch cards is used to estimate the total annual catch of salmon and steelhead as well as the catch distribu tion by stream. The law re quires that the punch cards be returned regardless of whether or not the holder caught salmon or steelhead during the year. PROTECTION NEEDED Pressure is mounting against th taking of th great whit polar bear of Alaska and th Bering Strait. Several organisations hav mad and ar planning furthar appeals to ih Alaskan government that greater restrictions be placed against thos hunting th polar bear. Many conserv ationists fear that this bear will soon b extinct if hunt ing pressure Is not mitigated. and this could happen very aslly du io th manner of hunting and also du to th slow reproductive cycl of th polar bear. UGH. MIGHTY HUNTERS Quite a few articles have appeared of late in our sport ing literature in which a mighty hunter describes how he shot his big polar bear. The method of stalking con sists of using an airplane to find a bear, then landing ahead of the bear's apparent path and waiting until it gets close enough to shoot. Al though there appears to be some risk in getting lost while flying around, and greater risk of a smashed plane while landing or taking off, there may be some doubt as to the sportsmanship involved in us ing the airplane as a means of stalking this game animal. Certainly it is a sport for the well-heeled hunter who does not have the time or inclina tion to stalk by boat and on foot, and certainly it has enough of an clement of dan ger to appear worthy; but the bear hasn't much of a chance against a magnum rifle at a safe distance. Let the mlghtly hunter earn his trophy with out use of an airplane. He doesn't have to prove to the bear that he can afford It. THE ANGLER'S LOG Th weatherman sounds in an uncooperative mood de spite repealed calls to try to get him to find a storm mov ing this way. Colder and cold er is th forecast, and fisher man might as wall accept an other unusual season mad so by weather. Appleeale River Has some wat er and a few very dark fall fish that might be available. Although there will be fishermen who will expect to catch a fish, most of inose who will be out tnls week end will be out Just to practice casting to keep warm. t'hetro River Is so low and clear that all the rith have per petual stage fright and refuse to come out. 11 inols River Is a so low and clear. Rumors of a few fish be. low Brigga creek should be be lieved omy ny those who 1 ke to walk for the exercise. Klamath River still bas a lot of water in it that makes it hard for the veterans. There are plenty of fish, but they're hard to get interested. Rosue River Renorta of a large gathering of fish in the lower river around Agnesa indi cate a need for some nigh water in both the Illinois and the Rogue. Smith River Low and clear, tackle may find a few fish. THE OPTIMIST S CORNER Mayb ih weather will be better next month. GOOD LUCKI Comet Wrestlers Host Grants Pass B 3 Tag Team Match on Thursday Wild Bill Savage, a rough but likeable crowd-pleaser, will team with Haru Sasaki, detested Japanese flash, In a tag team match headlining a heavywegiht wrestling card at Medford armory next Thursday night, Jan. 17.

There were 46 professionals and one amateur who broke par Thursday. Of these 30 shot In the sixties and still none of them caught Billy Casper. Casper fired a seven-under- par 64 on the par-71 course. Tony Lema, PGA champion Gary Player and Canada's Stan Leonard each shot a 85 and all that got them was a tie for second place. The Stardust Country Club Is a short 6,800 yards on flat terrain. But on top of that, it has some of the finest greens in the world. The result is a field day for the professionals. If the players can't putt on these greens, they Just don't know how to putt," said E. J. (Dutch) Harrison, the veteran shotmaker who had a none-too-good par 71.
