Detroit Capital City of Sport World. ?PT9 PELICANS TITLE ; Tho state basketball district having Klamntli mid Bend high schools as ila chief contenders for the title la one o( the simp lest in Oregon. Normally the winner of the annual Bend Klamath games goes to the state tournament. Competition la almost entirely limited to these two schools for geograph ical reaiom. Unlesi some secondary school steps to the front something that occurs only Infrequently either the . Bears or the Pell cans are assured of the trip to Salem. 5 Klamath, with fine material and good coaching, has domi nated the district since It was formed in IS 31. This season, however, Dwlght French, coach, finds himself with a young, in experienced team. It is a team that is developing rapidly but there Is some question whether or not It will come to the front with sufficient speed to make a successful defense of the dis trict title. Bend, shoved Into the back ground by the Pelicans for four straight years, is pretty much worked up to take the title. It means if these young Pelicans hope to win the fifth successive championship, they will have to be a fighting organization next Friday night when they tackle the Lava Bears in central Ore gon. ' Detroit, the motor car city, was really the capital of the sports world for 1935. The Detroit Tigers won the world series. Detroit's Joe Louis is the leading heavyweight boxer in the world.

Magglo, young San Francisco Seals baseball player, has received orders to re port to the New York Yankees training camp at St. Petersburg, Fla., several days in advance of the other players. Joe McCarthy, manager of the Yankees, and Col. Ruppert, club owner,, believed the San Fran oisco Italian outfielder is shy and they wont to avoid throwing him into the middle of training camp excitement. So he'll pre cede even the pitchers and the catchers, it was said. Di Magglo intends to begin working out within a few days by batting and fielding with the semi-pros at Funston field. He has been taking long walks to trongthen an injured knee. Auto License Sale Above Last Year's SALEM, Ore., Jan. 6..

Although the victor will not he assured of the Jnunt to Salem, the outcome should reveal comparative strength for the district tourna ment at the end of the season. Redmond, like Bend, is a strong contender from the north ern half of the zone. Saturday night's game should be as diffi cult S3 Friday's. Klamath won the district title ever since it was formed from the season of 1931-32., I American League Teams Show Class of 1935 Season By WILL HARRIDGR President, The American League CHICAGO, Jan. C OP) We American leaguers well can be proud of our players during 1935, for they not only - won the all- star game for the third time but also were triumphant la the world series when the Detroit Tigers vanquished the Chicago Cubs in; six games. The Tigers did not look like champions in the spring. In tact, it seemed as if New York, Chi cago or Cleveland would finish In front, but, Detroit, after a very poor start, settled down and gradually overcame the lead owned by four of their rivals, finally going to the front and remaining there. . Sox Hit Bad Luck Chicago, after a most spectac ular spurt at the outset of the season, again experienced the bad luck that beset the White Sox in 1934, and, with most of their regulars being Wd .t one 1 time or another, slipped down to fiftb. place. Cleveland was hand- icapped because of - accidents. while New York lacked its sus- pected strength in pitching. Bos ton has Its trouble in its infield and those two veterans. Grove and Ferrell, pitching sensation ally, could not bring the Red Sox home in better than fourth place. There were numerous Incidents which made the American league season of 1935 one to be remem bered. " Lou Gehrig stretched bis string of consecutive games to 1,653. No-hit Game Recalled Vernon Kennedy, rookie White Sox pitcher, - pitched -a no-hit game against Cleveland. . Roger Cramer of Philadelphia made six hits In six times at bat, being the first American league batsman to do so twice. Ted Lyons of Chicago became I the first pitcher ever to make two two-base hits In an inning. Buddy Myer of Washington won the batting championship from Joe Vosmlk of Cleveland on . the very last day ol the sea son. Trades May Be Effective To forecast the season's race several months in advance is a most difficult task. Naturally, the question Is: "What club or clubs can prevent Detroit from winning its third consecutive pennant?" How can I make such prediction at this time when we do not know how the eight clubB will shape up at the start of the season? A few trades or deals already have been made, Boston has WOOD What Is more colorful about Xmas season than warm, cozy home? Most homes are warmed with our fuel and we appreciate your business.

' "Wood to Burn" Dlft Market St. Phone BBS George Sisler Urges Schools For Baseball ST. LOUIS, Jan. 6, (TV George Sisler, once one of base ball's greatest players, suggest ed today that the major leagues conduct their own baseball The former St I.ouls Browns first baseman, now in tho sport ing goods business, asserted sueh schools would "tend to im prove materially tho caliber of minor league players, besides giv ing the green youngsters a chance to break Into tho game." "1 think the majors owe It to themselves, organized baseball I "i ,he D"" ,hvV".,.''yc sponsor numerous schools," Sis ler snid. "You hear ever year about the shortage of material and how this club and that club has plen ty of money available, but can't find any likely prospects to buy. Baseball schools are one answer to tho problem. 'At the average minor league camp the manager decides In a day or two whether a caudidate for a tryout will do tho club any good. That is not a fair test. The school could give the boy a sixweok course of Instruc tion and In that time be would really learn something. 'The minor leagues would even do well to have their seho61s where their players could learn the things that their malingers don't take the time to teach them." bought Jimmie Foxx, great bats man, and John Marcum, Phila delphia's best pitcher. Detroit has bought outfielder Al Sim mons. Boston also consummated a deal with Washington where It exchanged Outfielders Johnson and Reynolds for Outfielder! Manuab. New York traded Pitcher Allen for Pitchers Pear son and Sundra, Other trades are. no doubt, in contemplation, which may change entirely the complexion of the 1936 race.
