Tors Scourge
Of Mid-South
Cage Circuit
MEMPHIS, Jan. 18 (VP)
Scourge of the mid-south bas
ketball circuit is an unortho
dox, hip-shooting band of Tors
from the Memphis Naval Air
Technical Training center
whose only formula is:
Get tliur fustest with the
mostost."
A team without a single name
player or, for that matter, a
simile nlav. these cage "no
bodies" hove racked up 1404
points in rolling over 18 foes
an average oi to a game.
Thev scored more than iou
nnlnti aaalnst four teama. in
eluding Henderson biaie ana
Ouchitu colleges of Arkansas.
Most wins have been over mid
south service combines.
The bovs walloned the Uni
versity of Mexico, 01 to 34, last
night and then settled down for
a long spell of idleness. Nobody
wants 'cm.
"We've tried for games with
every big college team in the
section," says the coach, Lt.
Vincent Schacffer. formerly an
assistant high school mentor at
Miami, fla., " , . . Aiooama,
Tennessee, Mississippi and Ar
kansas. But they just say, no,
much obliged.
Schaeffer's athletes are defi
nitely an offense-minded crew.
"We don't have- a single de
fensive play." declaros the
coach. "In fact, come to think
of it, we don't have any plays
at all. I just give the boys the
ball and tell them to go for the
buckot,"
High scorer is a high school
lad from Newark. O.. Fred
Schous, with 204 points. Dallas
Zubcr of the University of To.
ledo, O., and Ernie Rostock of
La Grande. Ore., vho had
good scoring mark at a Junior
college in Oregon, are the top
college, talent.
Most of the boys are prep
and small college graduates with
just an uncanny eye for the
basket. As Coach Schacffer says:
"Thev can shoot 'cm out of
their ears."

HERALD AND NEWS SEVEN
Only the weather is holding
Up the beginning of winter
sports activities at the Murine
uarracKs, Ma, iienry raus, posi
recreation director, announced
today.
As soon as tho temperature
drops to below freezing and a
fairly good snow falls, two skat
ing rlnKs built on the old parade
ground can be flooded and read
ied for use. Both rinks are 100
by 130 feet. Another rink, 200
by 250 feet, will be opened if
the demand for skating space is
great enough, and it may also be
used for racing. An ex-World's
Fair figure skater, PFC R. A.
Franz, will be on hand to teach
that specialty.
AH work on the bob-sled run
and ski slide await only the wea
therman s nod. men me sled
run w.111 have to be allowed to
freeze hard over the surface and
be banked with snow on the
curves. The course is 3000 feet
long, and riders may expect to
attain a speed of 40 to 50 miles
per hour over It.
A BoD-sied designed ty i;oi.
George Van Orden, an ardent
sportsman, is being built in the
carpentry shop. If it proves to
be worthy, rnoro will be built
from tho surnc pattern.
Both the sled run and ski
course are built along the east
side of the hills bordering the
Barracks, as that side gets less
sun and snow lies longer on its
banks, ine ski slide win run
cross-country through adjacent
property owned by T. E. Carl
son, and skiers may travel as
far as three miles on the course.
The skating rinks and bad
curves on the sled run will be
lighted. All the facilities arc to
be used, not only for pure rec
reational sport, but as a part of
the Barracks' athletic and train
ing program. Winter sports have
been endorsed by Com. Cog
gcshall, medical officer, as high
ly beneficial to tho health of the
marines here, and excellent In
structors will handle novices in
each activity.
Construction of the rinks and
courses was under the supervi
sion of Lt. Albert W. Martin,
navy public works officer here.
Byrnes Request for Ban
Of Night Lighting Denied
WASHINGTON. Jan. 15 OP)
The lights will stay on. . . . at
least temporarily ... for war
time athletic events.
Observers felt that way today
in view of .disclosure by a .war
roductlon board official that
aseball will be exempt from
the government's night lighting
restrictions.
War Mobilization Director
Byrnes recently asked that out
door display and ornamental
lighting be curtailed as meaning
that other sports events requif
ing lighting, both indoor and out
door, will be allowed to continue
as well as baseball.
These Include Softball, bowl
ing, basketball, hockey and boxing.
ror organized baseball, both
major and minor, the exemption
came as the most welcome news
in months. It was taken as an
indication that the government
wants the game to carry on de
spite manpower handicaps.
Baseball, its backers say, has
proved a beneficial morale factor
not only on war workers and
civilians generally, but also on
the armed forces. Major leagues
Played zjts games under tne
lights In 1944 and minor leagues
aoout two-thirds of their con
tests.

Jack Riser
Meets 'Mask'
Friday Night
The battle of the century is
booked for the Klamath Punch
pluza Friday night when Joltin'
Jack Kiser, light-heavywoight
king of the murders, clashes
with the highly vaunted and
dang'jrous "Grey Mask." Kiser
wun the right to meet tho
masked menace by taking top
honors in the "battle royal held
at the armory last week.
Jack is a really good rasslcr
and if he can avoid the dreaded
head butts of the hooded hood
lum he may guzzle him for the
first time in the Klamath arena.
Kiter will be going all out to
topple the veiled villain as he
feels that the Mask is stealing his
tnunder uirougnoui the norm
west passage.
Mr. Stonefaee is reported to
have been recuperating in Cali
fornia from the effects of his last
few bouts with the biccp boys in
tnese parts, hacn and an of r.ne
cranium crunchers are out to
dump the hooded heel as a win
over him would add consider
ably to the prestige of the muscle
man that turns the trick.
Promoter Mack Lillard an
nounced Monday that the prico
of pasteboards for the clambake
would remain the same and
ducats are going fast. This bout
will be, without doubt, one of
the finest brawls witnessed at
the Klamath arena In many
months with both gladiators
tops in their line and the armory
will be bulging at the sides
when the prelims get underway

still want to know all the de
tails. This was the report brought

"We showed them pictures of
the 1944 world series, gave them
baseballs, autographed their
'short snorter' bills or anything
else they wanted us to.
"After we had completed our
show, we asked if there were
anv Questions.
"You should have seen them
let us have it."
