tmmm fawn ACADEMIC ADVENTURE Huge John Warren and Happy Hobby Hobson, mainsprings in the U of O grid, cage and dia mond departments, stopped by last week on the prowl for Web foot student material you'll note, Mr. Atherton, we said stu dent material. Tho gentlemen were accom panied by or accompanying, de pending on who is looking at it, a trio of student leaders interest ed 'in student material. Which made it unanimosuly academic, unouestionnbly. Among the academic questions which came up were, unfailingly, how about Webfoot FB and BB teams of autumn and winter? Huge John was of the opinion that there would be one in his department but he says Uncle Sam still has all the high cards, which leaves Huge John with practically nothing but pros pects. Nothing is certain, he offered. We did not ask him about re-scheduling Texas. ' Mr. Warren was hesitant about releasing information rel ative even distantly to his autumnal plans in the sectors of defense and attack. Fearful, he said, that the information might leak into the bands of those who would know more exactly what to do with it. Additionally Huge John was piqued concerning the Klamath county talent which annually fails to find its way to Eugene and asked an accounting. We, who spent a sufficient time but no more at Northwestern, could not furnish it but did point out that In Vic Keginato and Nello Giovaninnl the webfoots pos sessed two Klamath first string ers of recent memory. While at the same time, those Oregon Staters had none. Mr. Warren conceded the point and went on to reflect over the appointment of Frank Ramsey, the fourth Oregon Stater in a row, as chief pilot at KUHS Mr. Happy Hobson was less Jaundiced. He said the Tall Firs, whose stature has been trimmed scarcely less than con siderably in the past two seasons, will have quite a fair ball club and Wally Borrovik as well. Borrovik, a runt-sized fellow of 6 feet and 7 inches is expected to provide the nucleus of the 1942-43 squad. And there's Bob Wewland, once of Medford. And Bob Erlandson, once of Klamath Falls and more recently once of the Duck Frosh squad. Greying Mr. Hobson figured that Erlandson might possibly land a place among the first five or close thereto. The Ducks, he bared, will not make a trip to Madison Square garden, or even to McCredie springs if it's not necessary on account of it's almost impossible to secure train reservations at a given time for a given number of people. Neither Mr. Huge Warren nor Mr. Happy Hobson were able to point with certainty to acad emic successes in the near vicin ity although there were a couple of Henley lads with visible po tentialities as Psychology majors. One was 6 feet, 4 inches tall. GRANT COACH QUITS PORTLAND, Aug. 13 (P) Portland public school officials yesterday received the resigna tion of Paul G.

Stagg, 80, Sees More Football Coaching Dean Thinks War Will Effect Grid Little STOCKTON, Calif., Aug. 13 (JP) Hale and hearty as his 80th birthday approaches, veteran Football Coach Amos Alonzo Stagg believes the war will have but little effect on the game, and when it's over there will be an expansion in gridiron inter est. "I don't think the war will af fect the quality of the teams very much, especially at the larger universities,'' said the white haired College of the Pacific mentor who coached University of Chicago teams through the Spanish-American , and World wars. ,. 'The big schools have so much material in normal times that they never utilize all of it. There is still plenty of it available for good football teams." And after the war, Stagg said in an interview, interest in foot ball should pick up because so many service men will have play. ea tne game,, perhaps for the first time. "There will always be a strong inclination for outdoor life and sports, and I have an idea that if the war lasts a long time, sports admission prices will go down, which will not be a bad thing." ; ; ..,... Stagg's 53rd football campaign this year will be tougher than usual, for he will tr;in his Paci fic squad without the help of an assistant. Ralph Francis, the sec ond in command last year, is now a lieutenant in the army. Pacific, always a tough little team with a reputation for knocking over the big fellows, faces a schedule including Uni versity of Washington and the star-studded navy pre-flight school at Moraga. j Front Runners By The Aaaocialed Prat National Laasua BalttnK RelMT.

San IVancUco 8-0, Att.t 4-1 (lit ftmi 10 inninm). By The Associated Preu ' The last-place Portland Beav ers are , not playing the way their Pacific Coast leage base ball record indicates they should and the result is embarrassing the top Los Angeles club. Last night the Beavers just missed sweeping a doublehcader from the Angels, who won the seven-inning opener. 5-4. in the final inning, but dropped a free hitting second-game 6-4. In the nightcap Portland amassed 14 safeties to 11 hits collected by the Angels'. Ad Liska dueled Ken Raffens berger and Roy Davis, Angel hurlers, in the first game, as the Beavers played one of their i rare error-less games. The An gels collected nine hits and the Beavers seven. Portland won on the previous night Sacramento, the second-place club, climbed to within two and one-half games of the Angels by thumping Oakland for the sec ond consecutive night, o-J. The Solons trailed, 2-3, going into the seventh when they scored five runs after the usually steady Jack Salveson blew up to yield four bases on balls and three hits. John Yelovic gave up two additional mis m ine ninth for a total of 10 safeties collected by Sacramento. The third-place Seattle Haul iers dropped a 'ten-inning first game of a doubleheader to San Francisco, 6-4, but Carl Fischer hurled the Rainiers to a 1-0 win with his two-hit performance in the seven-inning after piece. Veteran Rainier hurler, Hal Tuipin, was the victim of a 12' hit assault in the opener, but his teammates pounded Tom Seats and Larry Jansen for 13 safeties. At Hollywood, Bill Thomas yielded ten hits but defeated his former employers, the San Diego Padres, 4-3. It was Thomas sixth straight win since joining Hollywood. He had lost nine straight while on the Padre club earlier this season. Triple Tops Mike Jacobs Garden Card NEW YORK, Aug. 13 (JP) Three ten-round fights are on the card at Madison Square gar den tonight and if you can pick the one that deserves the top billing, you're a lot better than most fight fans. They'll run off In this order Cleo Shans, Los Angeles light weight, vs. Maxie Shapiro, New York; Fritzie Zivic, Pittsburgh, former welterweight champion, vs. Garvey Young, a marine who fight out of Boston, and Bobby Ruffin, New York lightweight, vs. Bob Montgomery, Phila delphia. The main reason for that ar rangement is that Mike Jacobs. who hasn't liked all-star cards since his ill-fated tournament of champions, had to step in to save his matchmaking and pub licity departments from madness. Each of the six boxers had a representative who was trying to get his boy most of the pub licity and for a while it looked as if there might be more battling around 49th street and Broad way than in the garden ring. Vancouver Gains Notch in Tight Western Loop Race By The Associated Press Vancouver gained another notch in the tight battle for leadership of the Western Inter national Baseball league as Man ager Don Osborn pitched his team to a 4-3 victory over the Spokane Indians last night but it took the Caps 11 innings to down the usually weak cellar team. Osborn's usually good pitch ing was lacking, however, as he allowed the Indians 10 hits while his matps were collecting 14 for the necessary winning runs. At Tacoma the Salem Senators knocked over the Tigers, 6-4, for their second straight game as Del Holmes gave up seven hits, and nine walks and his mates bobbled eight times In the field.

Managers Vouch for Fitness Coast Leaders Volunteer Programs in Colleges MORAGA, Cnlif., Aug. 13 (IP) Graduate manngers of the Pa clfic Coast conference intend that each of the conference's 10 members shall participate active ly in the army-navy physical fitness programs, and are ready to help any other far western college, university or high school do the same. inetr willingness in this re spect was expressed yesterday In a resolution adopted unanimous ly after a visit to the St. Mary's college campus here, western center of the navy's pre-flight training activities. The Managers' association, headed by Alfred R. Masters of Stanford university, formed a three-man committee to assem ble data on the development of physical fitness programs at the separate conference schools and additionally to serve as a me dium of exchanging information between other schools and the armed forces on matters of train ing procedure. Besides the general supervis ory work to be undertaken by the committee, each graduate manager volunteered individual ly to help promote the program in his own school.

By AUSTIN BEALMEAR Associated Prett Sportt Writer While it may never earn them a citation from the office of defense transportation, the New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers appear determined to save themselves and the baseball fans a lot of travel by keeping the 1942 world scries within range of a 5-cent subway ride. Yesterday at Ebbets Field, the Dodgers went to bat In the ntnfl- Innlner fit a Rpnrflfa nllr-h. ing duel between their ace, Lefty Larry French, and Rube Melton of the Philadelphia Phils. They loaded the bases on two singles and a walk and sent dangerous Dolph Camllll to the plate. Camilli, however, didn't lay a bt on the ball. He merely wait ed out a walk which forced the winning run across, giving the Dodgers the verdict, 1-0. Meanwhile, over in the Bronx, the Yankees went to bat against the Boston Red Sox with the score tied in the last half of the ninth. They also loaded the bas es with one away and brought up Charlie (King Kong) Keller. Keller picked out a pitch he liked, slammed it 420 feet into the right-center field bleachers for his 18th homer of the year and presented the Yankees with an 8-4 triumph. The uaros downed mo uni- cago Cubs twice, 0-4 and B-3. John Boazley registered his 13lh pitching victory in the opener, although ho yielded 10 of the 11 hits and failed to finish.
