C.IED
By FRANK CALIBE
Wayne Scott Is giving his boys
a light workout and gradually
rw.rlnff off for the tilt that is
1 to happen in me
valley at Asn
land. The first
nlcht will so
something like
this: The Peli
cans will have
a hooD battle
with Grants
Pass in the 8:30
game and Med-
CxIIh ford and North
Bend will perform the first
show.
Now the two winners of the
Friday night battle will play in
the 8:30 tiif Saturday night and
the two losers will be the first
game at 7:30 Saturday evening.
The winner of District 7 will
then venture higher to the state
tournament in Salem and grasp
for the hoop title for the state
of Oregon.
HUSKIES IN LEAD
Oregon State's basketball
team faces its final and most
important series of the present
Northern division campaign this
weekend at Seattle against the
first place University of Wash
ington quintet.
By winning two straight the
Beavers can put the race into a
three-way tie among Washing
ton, Oregon and themselves, and
would have to have a playoff
to see who would be the champ
Ions. As a result of winning
over the Idaho Vandals twice
last weekend, the Huskies have
the Inside way for the pennant
with 10 wins and four losses. .
Oregon rests in second place
and it .has its schedule complet-'
ed with 10 wins and six losses.
All they have to do is sit and
hold tight that the Beavers
throw the Huskies for a loss
twice. The Beavers hold down
third with eight won- and six
lost. Therefore, a split in the
final series would give Wash
ington the championship and
Oregon State would be no bet
ter than third.
NEW IDEAS
Emil Piluso, the cousin to the
great wrestler, Earnie, still has
the idea of raising the hoop
baskets to 11 feet, and is getting
pro and con opinions.
If the baskets were raised to
that height it would tend to
make the all-star boys lose their
"eye" for the basket. And when
they did get used to rt they
wouldn't be hitting as well as
they did. It would be just the
same as inventing a new game
and many plays would, have to
be altered. '
This would give the small
boys a bad break anyway. Some
of them are having a bad time
the way it is. why not leave
the baskets where they are and
lust forget the whole matter.
Jean iSberhart, the coach at
Ashland, had an idea of having
an official on each basket. It
has been practiced at many
places but the public doesn t go
too much for it because it slows
up the game. A good rough
game is liked by the public
and the public likes to boo the
referee.
DEER ME
Don Fisher stopped In and
gave us a report that the deer
are doing fine in the Lava Beds.
The grass is beginning to come
up and with the snow gone
they are beginning to get fatter.
Trains didn't get too many of
them this year as sometimes
happens. Fisher claims that
within six miles he counted. 726
heads, so you can see there is
plenty of deer.
HEARD AT RANDOM
Jack Neil, a one time Wild
cat player for Klamath Union
has just enrolled back. Jack
played in the backfield and was
plenty good, but after complet
ing his first year he decided
to do some traveling and he did
just that too. He has been
practically all over the United
States and is now ready to
settle down and get some edu
cation and football.

Beavers
Ready to Square Off;
Oregon Webfeet Tense
SEATTLE. March 4 UP) Oregon State and Washington will
square off here tomorrow and Saturday nights in the major en
gagements of the northern division season finale a season of
tense campaigning until Washington State faded from the picture
during its Oregon campaign.
The Cougars will meet the University, of Idaho on the same
nights to close the season for all teams.
The entire burden of stopping the Huskies' bid for the title
now rests with Oregon State
which must win both games to
keep Washington from gaining
undisputed possession. A double
victory for the Beavers will
bring about a tie between them,
Oregon and the Huskies. The
Huskies need but one victory
to take the crown.
The Huskies will close prepa
ration for the final series with
a light workout today. The
squad is in top physical shape
and an added interest in the
series will be Guard Bill Mor
ris' attempt to establish a new
division scoring record. He
needs but 16 points in the two
games.
The Oregon State squad, also
at top strength, is expected to-
nieht. Coach Slats GUI has given
no indication as to whether his
Beavers would try to keep pace
with the fire-department Husky
game or attempt to slow it
down.

Deer Survive On
Haystack Meals
BAKER, March 4 m Most
of the deer in the Lower Powder

ter by helping themselves to hay
stacks on ' foothill ranches,
Rancher Sam Coon reported to
day. . ' '
He said that between 50 and
250 deer were daily visitors to
his stacks during January and
February and "stole" more than
30 tons of hay.
Johnny McCarthy
Should Make Good
BOSTON, March 4 Johnny
McCarthy, for whom the Giants
paid the Yankees' Newark sub
sidiary $40,000 in 1936, is likely
to make good as the Braves'
first baseman this year in this
third National league trial, He
broke in with Dodgers in '35, hit
.295 for Indianapolis last season
and led the American associ
ation in runs-battcd-in with 133.
McCarthy is married and 3A
in the draft.
His coming sends Max West
back to the outfield, and gives
the Braves a good one, with him
and Chet Ross providing punch
and Tommy Holmes the speed.
New harps, i unlike other
stringed instruments, are con
sidered better than old ones.

The post war period will see
the biggest national competitive

of the war department.
Bank predicted the coming of
professional football to Pacific

Bank said men in the armed

benefitting from a tremendous
sports program "so large in
some respects it defies compre

come back they'll be keenly
conscious of combative sports,"
he observed.

NEW YORK, March 4 W')
Gus Welch, the old Carlisle foot
ball star now a coach at George
town Prep, has come up with a
plan for "mass production" box
ing in high schools under govern
ment supervision . . . Wo figure
the schools can do their own job
of supervising pretty well, but
there's no doubt that school box
ing and wrestling could do
with a little cncourugemvnt . . .
The army and navy can toll you
about the value of these sports
in teaching a kid to take care of
himself when he has to fight . . .
The drawback always has been
that too many parents confused
boxing with professional fight
ing . . . There's a difference that
anyone' can see this weekend
when they hold the Eastern In
tercollegiate tournament at Syra
cuse. SHORT SPORT STORY

TODAY'S GUEST STAR
Bill Reddy, Syracuse, N. Y.,
Post-Standard: "The army al
ready has moved in on football at
Syracuse university. The roomy

Coach Ossie Solem and his assist
ants have become 'war college'
headquarters. Ossie has moved
to a smaller room next door. If
your mind runs that way, it
could be called symbolic."
HOT STUFF
Frank Mitchell, the vcrce of
Jacksonville, Fla., figures that
this business of having baseball
teams train in the north will be a
good thing for his state (which
hasn't room for 'em anyway) . . .
He argues: "After a couple of
years they'll be happier than
ever to get back where it's
warm."
This painful fight, because of
its ideological character, is a
revolution the greatest revolu
tion of all time. As Abraham
Lincoln expressed it, "It is a
quality of revolution not to go
by old ideas or old laws, but to
break up both and make new
ones." Mexican Ambassador
Dr. Don Francisco C. Najera.
