PHYSICAL FITNESS
Joe Peak and Frank Ramsey are a little worried that the
Klamath Falls boys are not going to go into the armed forces
without adequate physical conditioning. Frank and Joe decided
- to go into a huddle and here is the play:
Starting soon there will be a physical fitness program for all
boys at the high school. This will take place mostly after school
and April 2 they plan on having a school Jamboree of a boxing
tournament. April 9 there will be an interclass contest. An ad
mission charge will be added so that the 30 gloves they bought
will be paid for.
On the same bills they Intend to have a dash of wrestling,
. too. This should be an exciting show and the public shouldn't
miss it.
Another thing mentioned in the huddle was that of an obstacle
course between the high school and the canal along Alameda
street. The course will consist of 12 obstacles. Most of the kids
, in this class will be from the physical education classes.
Now the only thing that's worrying the two geniuses is the
building material. Peak has already contacted Copco and they
, are ready to help and donate. And if anybody else has any tele
phone poles in their back yard, or a hunk of bridge timber that
they want removed, don't forget to get in touch with these men
at the high school.
This obstacle race track should be the thing now, because the
' army is stressing such matters seriously. And with Dave Bridge
; operating the boys' club maybe we will have a world champion
' from Klamath Falls, Ore.
This isn't all. They are working out a basketball tournament
; by playing during noon hours and after school and even on Sat
i urdays. It won't be long before track and baseball will be in full
? swing and they, too, will be added to the list.
To finish up the huddle the two men weren't satisfied. Maybe
i Uncle Sam would run out of manpower, so they decided to have
a physical fitness program for the females of the prep school.
They won't be out jumping the obstacle course or boxing, but
instead, a conditional body building exercise consisting of drills.

Clarence Hunnemiller, an out
standing sportsman of southern
Oregon relates this story to us:
It seems as though our friend
Clarence was hunting deer in
Wyoming. He found his buck
. . . aimed . . . and shot. His
deer fell dead. But when Clar
ence found his deer, he also
found that . his aim had been
very low and only shot off its
right front foot. But the deer
was dead.
That is a very unusual hunt
er's story, but we can go back
into medical history for its an
swer. A doctor once had the same
experience. Only with a coyote.
As he was passing in an open
country he spied a coyote . . .
stopped his car . . . took a shot
: at the animal . . . and the same
experience happened to him . . .
he shot only its right front
foot. It was deader than a ham
mer. The doctor, in amazement,
took the coyote with him to the
hospital and had eight doctors
look him over . . . they took
him all apart. Nothing could be
found, only that its right front
foot had been shot.
Their verdict was this. The
shot entered its foot at the ex
act moment when the animal
had its right strain on it and as
soon as the s h o t entered, it
struck a nerve and stopped its
heart instantly with no pain
whatsoever.
This explains Mr. Hunnemil
ler's odd experience.

The fond hopes of Henry Arm

Wins Right
To Tourney
LA GRANDE, March 3 (IP)
Eastern Oregon lost 53-49 last
night to Linfield, but neverthe
less won the right to represent
Oregon in the intercollegiate
basketball tourney at Kansas
City.
With time for but two play
off games, when the league sea
son ended in a tie, the teams
agreed to a total-point method
of selecting the tourney entry
should the series be split. On
this basis Eastern won out -by
one point, having defeated Lin
field 58-53 Monday night.
A last minute rally last night
which netted eight points while
Linfield could get but two did
tho trick for Eastern.
Don Andrews, high scoring
Eastern forward, left immedi

induction, through the reserve

San Francisco Club

($) purchase of three pitchers
from Utica of the war closed
Canadian-American league was
announced today by the San

are Rudolph Parson, Ed Selway
and Francis Malsecd, all rignt
handers.
Parson and Malseed are mar

not learned. President Charles
Graham of the Seals concluded
the deal by telephone with the
head of the Utica club. The
Seals now have 11 pitchers on
the roster.
ants had "nibbled" for Dahlgren,
but Rickey reported today that
"the nibble has now become nib
bles." "Of course," Branch of
coursed, "we'll expect more than
just cash now. We can always
use a ballplayer or two."
This would appear to put it
squarely up to the Giants, for if
the Phillies have a "ball player
or two" to spare, they've escaped
the naked eye.
Dahlgrcn's desire to get out of
Brooklyn dates from last year,
when Durocher shipped h'm
down the river to Montreal in
mid-season. At any rale, the
Babe doesn't think he rated the
treatment he got, as well as the
"helpful" words which accom
panied the treatment,, and he'd
just as soon earn his meat and
potatoes somewhere else.
