And from his showing, for the evident enjoyment of the falthr ful, Allie impressed even the oldest inhabitants that the next time he tangles with Lightweight Lnamp bammy Angott, probably around October 2, he'll likely wind up taking the 135-pound crown away from stolid Samuel.

Hampton) That small, scurrying sound in the darkness is the die-hard remnant o( the once potent day-hours-for-day-sports associa tion, hastening to the ticket windows. The low moaning in the back ground comes from assorted business managers, for whom General DeWitt's dimout order was a lethal potion. Night sports has been the an swer to financial anemia, par ticularly in high school, small college and semi-pro circles. Now that the death knell has sounded, the , money handlers are seeing : spots before their eyes spots of red ledger ink that -splatter - ominously into distance. ' But purely ': on the esthetic side, there is some Joy. Football at night has not been football at its best. The lights have given but don't ask us to prove it an illusion of speed. Fans who have been conversant with the sport since the days o Pudge Heflefinger, have kept their affection warm in these ; latter days only by toasting it at the solar fires of the remaining day-time games. ' Baseball at night has lacked the atmosphere that comes (rom crunching peanuts picked from the pocket of an arm-carried coat; from watching a pitcher swelter in muscle-loosening heat; from the post-game . . . ah, lemonade . , . sipped in con genial baseball seminars at the corner discussion club. ', So those who have nostalgic memories of things as they, used to be. are lining up at the ticket windows. : But the reason for night games still exists most people work in the daytime and the happiness of a few can't over come the' disappointment of the many who now will take a smaller helping of sports for the duration. , In industrial centers such as Portland, the boys on the grave yard shift may swell the at tendance at day games, but elsewhere the gloom is as deep as the night. 1 Much of Oregon escaped the fateful edict and will carry on as usual with, perhaps, even 1 Oregon Sport Kotes Mellow-aged r-2 t r ! ii.-.&..vJr. al , -J and Calif.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7 Major league baseball reaches a new high for night competi tion today. Seven games are scheduled. Six of them will start under the lights while the seventh will finish under them, being a twi-night affair at Ebbets field. Only the Yankees and Athletics will not be in action. And just another indication how times have changed all of the International league and American Association games, all of them, are arc-light con. tests. Lewiston Roundup Cancelled; Shortage Of Help Blamed LEWISTON, Idaho, Aug. 7 (AP) The Lewiston Roundup scheduled for Sept. 25, 26 and 27 has been cancelled by di lectors because of the war emergency. M. L. Tyler, round-up asso ciation president, announced the action of the directors last night and said it "does not mean the end of the Lewiston roundups, but only a recess." Lack of local skilled helpers, a possible- shortage of hands and the general emergency ne cessitated the action, the di rectors said. JEFFERSON Light. eight LOGGERS HAVE HICH BUILT-UP - ARCHES 8-in.
