Their last game was a lop-sided 69-49 triumph over tho Navycats. These Leatherneck - Wcbfoot tussles will be basketball of a high calibre and the IniHe! clam bake is being played on the high school court especially for the benefit of local townspeople. So let's get behind the boys from the barracks with a good turn out and get this year's basketball season off to a flying start.

The I'uclfic side lads arc dead ly In their accuracy with this method of shooting. Back there thi. set shot is used mostly, and although it is effective, it neces sitates coming to a complete stop before shooting and getting set before letting the ball go. The push shot employed by westorn schools is a fastor way of shooting and can bo used from any place on the floor. It is alio much easior for the man shooting to koep his bal anco and follow the ball in whon tho push shot is used and Increases scoring from rebounds. The set or spot shot is seldom seen out here but all ono need do Is take a jaunt to Indiana, tho most enthusiastic basketball state in the nation, to sec it every day in the week and twice on Sundays.

Wolverines Battle Bucks For '10' Toga By HAROLD HARRISON COLUMBUS. O.. Nov. 22 (Pi The dopesters say it will be Ohio State's backfield against Michi gan s line in their Big Ten cham pionship football tilt here Satur day, and that it might turn out to be a preview of the Army (backfield)-Navy (line) engage ments but don't overlook that buck forward wall. bxact y five of those seven storting linemen for Ohio are veterans of one or moro seasons of Big Ten gridiron warfare. Ana wen mere is the little matter of statistics. A recapitulation of figures an nounced at me eight Ohio vic tories shows a game average of 1231 yards made against the bucks by rushing. Official figures on all gains, however, give the Wolverines tne edge, 215 to 200, and even Ohio coaches say Michigan's line will be the toughest to be faced this year. On the other hand, Ohio State leads the Big Ten in net gains, having picked up 282 yards a tilt by rushing and 94 yards a game by passing. Moro than 500 yards of the passing gains have been amassed in tho last four games. The Michigan line is built around Milan Lazctlch, a big tackle from Anaconda, Mont., who once was sheriff in his home community. He's the No. 1 All- America candidate from the Wolverine camp, so the reports say, oui nes oniy one of a stal wart line which held Illinois' tjpecdstars without a score sometning Ohio failed to do.

BROOKLYN Al "Bummy" Davis, 154, Brooklyn, knocked out Frankie Ross, 147, Boston,, 2. By The Associated Press Oregon Prepdom's "Big Four" the clubs that hammered their way through impressive regular season schedules to capture dis trict championships open their playoffs for the 1944 state foot ball title tomorrow (Thanksgiv ing Day.) Not one of the teams has suf fered defeat thus far, and even the closest observers give little edge to any of the elevens against its semi-final opponent. Both contests look like strictly toss-up affairs. At La Grande it will be the district 1 champion Tigers, a T-formation outfit, meeting Port land's Roosevelt Teddies, district 4 kings. And at Medford it will be the giant Black Tornado, district 2 title-holder, facing perhaps the finest "small school" team de veloped in the state in years Uresnam s uopners. Emerging from those two clashes will be the contestants for the December 2 state cham pionship fracas in Portland's Multnomah stadium. Roosevelt, sparked by the running and passing of Fullback Dick Gray, whipped seven foes and was tied once in grabbing the Portland diadem. Operating from the double-wing, they downed Corvallis, 13-0; Lincoln, 32- 0; Benson, 6-0; Commerce, 33- 7; Franklin, 20-12; Jefferson, 13-7; Grant, 6-0 and were dead locked, 6-6 by Washington. La Grande ran roughshod over the following nine oppon ents: The Dalles, 18-0; Baker, 26-6 and 37-0; Mac High, 19-12 and 26-0; Pendleton, 37-7 and 27-6; Enterprise, 32-6 and Nampa, Idaho, 13-0. Medford, employing the un adulterated "T" behind a 191- pound forward wall and with a heavy, fleet-footed quartet of backs, registered lopsided vic tories over eight foes as fol lows: Weed, Calif., 42-6; Marsh field, 33-0; Eureka, Calif., 28-6; Klamath Falls, 21-0; Grants Pass, 41-0; Bend, 34-13; Ashland, 42-13 and Coquille, 32-14. Gresham, which uses both the "T" and the Notre Dame box, ran up the state's loftiest point total 278 in eight games dur ing a schedule which saw the Gophers wallop Sabin of Port land, 26-0; Parkrose, 26-6; Camas. Wash., 44-13; Hood River, 38-0; Sandy. 21-0; Oregon City, 21-0; Estacada, 70-0 and Newberg, 32-0.
