FDR May Settle Question
On Army-Navy Tilt Today

By PAUL HAINES
GOLF SHOTS
Bill Selkirk, assistant pro at
Reames, is planning on leav
ing this Saturday lor Portland
wnere he will match shots
with the biggest names in golt
in the Portland Open to be
held, November 23-26, inelu-
tive- ... .
Other golfers who will partici
pate in tne battle lor gold and
glory from this vicinity are Ed
die Simmons and Leland Clark,
both amateurs from Jledford.
Bill says that his game has
been "pretty good" lately, and
taking that to mean he has
traversed the 18 hole route in
the high 60's and low 70's, we
should say that it is "pretty
good" indeed, especially when
we feel fortunate if we break
90.
Bill also says he'll feel satis
fied if he finishes in the first 20
as that':: where the old moola
lies.
Anyway, here's all the luck
in the world to Bill when he
tees off in Portland , next
Thursday and we hope he slaps
the old apple into the cup like
a homing pigeon coming to
roost.
ROOKIE OF YEAR
In a poll taken by Sports
Week of the newspaper sports
editors of the country to deter
mine the baseball rookie of the
year, Bill Voiselle, hurler for the
New York Giants, came in un
der the wire first.
A previous poll had given
Voiselle the nod in the Nation
al circuit along with George
Stixnweiss of the Yanks in the
American loop as rookies of
the year and this other vcte
was tor the outstanding begin
ner of both leagues combined.
Ted Wilks. St. Louis Card
twirler, came in a close second
and Stirnweiss was not "even a
close third in this final poll. .
Aside from Wilks, Voiselle
had virtually, no competition
but the Card pitcher gave him
a battle all the way down the .
stretch.
ONE BUCK. PLEASE
It cost Charlie Frank Wil
liams one simoleon to intro
duce Actress Bette Davis to
the Monday Quarterback club
of Columbus, Ga. At a club
meeting there, it is against the
rules to talk about anything
but football, so perhaps Miss
Davis was a trifle non-plussed.
She and her sister, Mrs. Rob
ert Telgram; are staying at Wil
liams residence during their
visit there.
Well, Columbus may have
Bette Davis for a member but
we bet we have a better Quar
terback club in Klamath Falls.
We like Lana Turner better,

Evans not only runs and

Pete Gets Second Crack
At "Grey Mask" Tonight
For the second time in two
weeks, Pete Belcastro, the Weed
Assassin, will attempt to flop
the savage "Grey Mask" in the
top event on the rassling card
at the armory tonight.
Belcastro gave the hooded
heel a troublesome evening in
their last joust, and . may well
force the masked mauler to re
move his hood this time with a
victory.

Amateur Barred
From Portland
Golf Tournament
PORLAND, Ore., Nov.. 17 (P)
Vic Ripley, low scoring amateur
in the recent Portland qualifying
round,-was barred today from
the Portland open golf tourna
ment later this month as an
amateur,
Ripley, who shot a 72, former
ly was a golf pro and a profes
sional hockey player, but had
sought reinstatement as an
amateur from the United States
Golf association. The associa
tion advised him that he cannot
qualify until December 9. The
tournament opens November 23.
He said he would not compete
in the tournament, which has
attracted most of the biggest
names in eolf. as a pro.
"I've started on the road
toward regaining my amateur
status, and X intend to iinisn,
he said.
Nine amateurs qualified for
entry in the $15,500 tournament.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17 m
Pardon us please if, before
plunging into this week's foot
ball selections, we point out that
we had only three defeats last
week as compared to 35 victor
ies and two ties. Rice, Indiana
and Muhlenberg failed to co
operate. :
Here's how the crystal ball
says they should finish this
week:
Army-Penn Penn, with two
good tackles in Savitsky and
Stickel, may put up an argument
for the first half but ; Army's
power will wear the Quakers
down for another one-sided
score for the cadets. ,

definitely aren't fooling these
days but they may find a tough
nut to crack In tho Boilermakers
before winning by two or threo

two rugged maulers, Belcastro
was apparently on the high road
to success after having ridded
himself of the unwelcome at
tentions of Referee Tex Porter
by the simple, but effective, pro
cess of heaving the arbitrator
clean out of the ring. Porter
climbed back in the square,
however, and pummeled Bel
castro until his ascendency over
his nDoonent was "gone with the
wind," enabling the "Mask" to
grab the bout with a cannonball.
Pete made the hooded heel
take a Brodie from the ring
time after time in their last tilt
and vows ,that this time the
"Mask" will either stay in
there and take It or he win
chase him out of the armory in
to the cold, cold street in his
BVD's.
This re-match of the two
grapplers was arranged by Pro
motor Mack Lillard both be
cause of Pete's fine showing last
week and the popular demand
of local rassling fans.
Despite Belcastro's animosity
to Wally Moss in the referceing
department, Wally will be the
third man in the ring. Maybe
Pete feels that he can't do any
worse than Porter, and he's
dead right there, as Tex prac
tically cost him the duke last
Friday, while Wally Is always

of major league officials mot to
consider the big league iigieo
ment which, among oilier things,
provides for procedure to be
taken in event of vacancy in the
office.
For the past several months
there lu.vo doom unconfirmed re
ports In baseball circles (hat Lm
dis, who- assumed baseball's
highest office when the present
major lciiguo pact was signed
on Jniuuiry 12, 1021, was to bo
n candidate for reelection when
the agreement expires on Janu
ary 12, 1048. The rumors havu
increased in hot stove talks since
Landis' recent illness, which has
confined him to St. Luke's hospi
tal for the last six weeks.
William Hiirridge, American
league i resident, In announcing
today's meeting, said only the of
ficials will "give consideration
to tho major league ugrccmcnt
which perpetuates the offlco of
baseball commissioner." Ho add
ed that the rccnnimendntlons of
the joint committee will be sub
mitted for consideration at the
annual major league meeting
here next month.
The major league pact, as now
in force, provides for tho proce
dure to be followed In event of
the resignation or death of Lan
dis during his term, or the ex
piration of his term, -lection
would bo by majority vote of
club owners and In event of a
deadlock three months after n
vacancy, cither league could re
quest the "president of the Unit

sioner." Other parts of the agreement
cover the respective playing ter
ritories oi tne majors, piayer lim
its, uniform contracts, waiver
prices, and other phases of the
game.
The condition of Landis, who
will be 78 years old on Novem
ber 20, was reported last night
as "not as satisfactory ns it wns
a day or so ago." Leslie M.
O'Connor, Landis' secretary, said
he was not making ns much
headway as we had expected.
We had hoped he would bo back
at the office by this time." The
commissioner entered the hospi
tal on uctobcr I lor a physical
checkup, and for tho first time
since he took over his bnsehall
job he was unable to attend a
world series.
