Midland Jnnunry 23, liM.'l By WEB OUDERIAK Wo got bawled out the otlicr day by ono of our gentle rend ers ho w n h gentle who De clined im of not giving n o null Httentlon to flail- . Ing at this time J o( your. It scorns he belongs t o the lona wolf vii r loty of sports mun who Is not n n t h uslnst over group amort In which Ouderlan he can participate, but Is a rabid outdoors sports mun. He enjoys tho thliins ho enn do ' himself such as fishing, tennis, aknllng, skiing, hunting and tho like. He doesn't glvo two hoots for watching events like bnsket bnll or football games. Thor are a lot of fellows Ilk that, and a lot of fellows Ilk fishing any time even In (ha winter. However, w chocked with Matt Flnnlgan on angling poiilbllHUs and h told us that with the ex ception of Upper Klamath lake which has special sea sons, fishing through the Ic Is generally prohibited throughout Oregon. However, some hardy souls are vontur. Ing through slush and Ice to open waters of Klamath river and making good catches, After the Globe Trotter-All Star guma Monday night, tho authorities discovered that they must pay ten per cent of tho gross gnts to the Oregon AAU in Portlnnd. In fact, the high school office received a tele gram from Rny Brooks, presi dent of tho Oregon AAU, de manding ton per cent or tho amateur plnyors Involved would be declared Ineligible. It seems that the AAU ruling on situations whe.ro the ama teurs piny professionals la that amateurs must obtain permis sion from tho AAU to play or otherwise be declared Ineligible, and that the feo for permission J .ten per cent of tho gate, ) This puts a reason behind the tan per cent fee, which on the faca of the Oregon president's demand appears to b 'hush' money to prevent Ineligibility of players who might need the opportunity to pi a y In othar amateur games. The Globe Trotter manager tells us that Oregon is tha only state where the AAU ; bothers to collect the ten per cent from small by-tho-wsy games. Wa ara taking the stand that player Is either eligible or Ineligible that ten per cent of tho gatn doesn't make him eligible again. There Is some thing wrong with that AAU ruling and it should bo changed. Dad weather has put the hush )on some traveling hoop games and haltpd any attempts to get gamo with Salem or Astoria for tho Pelicans. It doesn't seem to bother tho Victory league boys, however, they play every game scheduled. FIBHTS By Iht AHoclitMf Ptm olltCAOO Havold, ni. !

Briefs NEW YORK, Jan. 23 UP) Looking farther ahead than a good many folks, Elmer Ripley, Georgetown basketball coach, sees a comeback in store for pro basketball under wartime condi tions . . . His idea is that the pros can cash in on the current popularity of the college game and the fact that basketball courts can be put in places where gas-rationed fans can reach them. . . . Colleges are turning out more good players than ever before, and those boys want a chance to play," Elmer recently told the Washington star s Lew Atchison. ... There's no doubt about what kind of basketball the fans like. You can see for yourself in Mad ison Square garden, where we once sat through a pro game yawning in unison with about 200 other spectators. . . . , But pro basketball has a long way to come back. It still survives in the American and National leagues and a few "independent" and traveling teams, but even in its best days it never was a big-time or a big-money sport. "v TODXY'3 GVEST BTAR -j J.
