Fee's Make Bid for AAU Toga Tonight SEATTLE, March 10 (VP) Fee's Music Makers of Portland will challenge the three-year reign of Alpine Dairy of Seattle as northwest AAU basketball champions tonight. The powerful Rose City club, favored to lift the title, had its hands full In the first round of the annual tourney last night witli the Seattle Coast Guard quintet. Fee's rallied from a 10-24 hnlftimc deficit to hang up a 48-45 victory, paced by Jimmy Garbcr, Red O'Conncll and Chuck Patterson.

Titania Youngest Dog to Win Amateur Quail Championship PINEHURST, N. C, March 10 (p) Dr. Sam's Titaniu, a 23-month-old white and liver point er owned by Dr. Sam Black of Spartanburg, S. C, goes down in the record books as the youngest winner of tho National Amateur Quail championship. Titania, who made no mis takes during her two-hour heat earlier in the week, was judged the winner yesterday. Tho only other dog to find birds and make no mistakes was second place winner Lebanon Mary, owned by E. S. Vare of Philadelphia. By PAUL HAINES Georges Dusette put on a one man rassling exhibition last night at the Klamath armory by withstanding the combined ef forts of two musclers to throw him in the "battle royal" and then continuing to strut his stuff by walloping "Blood and Guts" Davidson in the main event in two straight falls. He captured each flop with his famed and powerful full-Nelson lo win the coveted match with the "Grey Mask" next Friday. Davidson never had a prayer against tho French strongman, although he put up a game bat tle. No fall was gained in the first canto, but Dusette clamped a Nelson on David.wn in the sec ond heat to grab a fall and fol lowed up with another aftcr the third stanza was less than a min ute old. In the- scml-wlndup, Jack Kiscr was awarded the decision over Tough' Tony Ross by Ref eree Wally Moss due to Tony's quaint use of the ropes. Jack took the first tumble with a series of dropkicks, fol lowed by a full body slam and a body press. Ross knotted the count in the third frame with a grapevine, but in the fourth heat Tony's exuberance got out of bounds when he playfully hooked Riser's chin over the up permost rope and then gave the rope a terrific jerk which all but decapitated the hapless Kiser. At in is point, moss stopped in and gave Jack the nod while Tony stormed to no avail. In the opening scuffle, Pete Bclcastro and r Gust . Johnson tussled to a draw. Pete copped the first flop with a series of forearm wallops followed by a body slam and body press. Gust evened matters in the third round with a leg stretch that caused Pete to toss In the towel and the last frame saw neither grappicr aoie to ct a tan. So next week, same time. same place, the powerful Dusette will try his luck and his full-Nelson on the savage, invincible, Mr. Stoncface, WIN BASKETBALL CROWN LONDON. March 10. M3) Led by TSgt.

Ted Clarke, USN, won the Seattle city squash title for the eighth straight time last night, defeating Dudes Pelly in straight sets. Webfoots Meet WSC Tonight Oponing Joust of Series Will Be Played At Pullman; Ken Hayet Doubtful Starter PULLMAN, March 10 (P) For the second time in eight years the Webfoots of the Uni versity of Oregon and Cougars of Washington State college are meeting tonight to crack a tie and decide the northern division, Puciiie coast conference basket ball championship. As the teams made final plans for the 8 n. m. scramble. Coach Jack Fricl of WSC predicted it would be a "battle of back boards" and Coach John Warren said his Oregon crew might be handicapped in the rebound tus sles by Ken Hayes' ailing toes. Hayes, who stands 8 feet 7 inches, was counted upon by Warren to check State's Vince Hanson, who is an inch taller. Sprained toes, said the coach, might force Hayes to remain on the bench in this crucial opening argument ot a three-game ser ies, which winds up next week in Eugene. Oregon and Washington State met in a sudden-death playoff in 1037 and the Cougars won the division crown, 'ihey lost to Stanford in the coast conference title series, which will not be played this year. Instead, the di vision winner will go to Kansas City for the western NCAA tour nament. Each team carries a red hot scoring ace. Hanson wound up the regular schedule with a new division scoring record. Dick Wilkins of Oregon led the di vision and the nation in the tally chase through the first half of the season. Each team also has a Hamil ton playing guard, and not mere ly to confuse the scorers. Bob Hamilton is a sparkplug for the Webfoots and George Hamilton has been labeled by Friel one of the nest guards ever to wear the WbU colors. Fremont Wins Grade School Cage Crown In the citv grade school cham pionship game, Fremont tipped Roosevelt 20-16, Friday at KUHS. - 4- Roosevelt got off to an early lead and maintained an 11-8 half- time advantage. However. Fre mont forged slowly -ahead and with three minutes to play led the score and then went -on to win. The game was generally slow as each team, showed some good defensive playing. Derrah tallied six for Roosevelt, as did Johnson, Lowell, and Elliot of Fremont.. Jack Is Nimble1 ilitary Service Reqn Baseball's Contin irements May Aid uance Throughout '45 Rv QTloa .- uuhANCISC.

The under-drafl-agcrs are Rocco Cardinalc, a good catching prospect; Walter Lister Jr., six-foot righthander who has pitching qualifications, and Harold Rabourn, a rangy lad from Santa Maria, Calif., who has inficlding aspirations. On the ovor-ago side of the fence were Joe Sprinz, 41, catcher, and Gus Suhr, first baseman, 39. What applies to the Seals will apply to tho other seven coast league clubs, whether the ratio is high or low.

Vic Plcetti, 17-year-old first base phenom from San Francisco, may open at the Initial sack with Manager Dolph Camllll moving himself into the outfield.

March 10, 1945 HERALD AND NEWS M la QPAin HAINESg., L1 HAINES Abolish One-Year Playing Rule Frank Murray, University of Virginia football coach, Is deffe nitely and frankly at odds with folks who have made the restore tion of the one-year rule their top post-war plan. He says. "For 25 years I have been asking, whv should ai legitimate siuuent in any regular university or college nave to wait around a year before being permitted to compete in intercollegiate ath letics? Nobody, as yet, has given me a suitable answer, though I have heard all the bromides and phony excuses." We are inclined to agree with Murray on the sheer stupidity of this rule. Why in the name of common sense, should a boy have to wait around a year before he is allowed to play for his school? We frankly do not believe there is an answer to the question that is logical and aboveboard. We would welcome any and all ideas on the subject from the readers of this pillar. Washington State Still Favored In our meanderings around town, we have talked to a num ber of people about the outcome of the Washington State-Oregon tussle tonight at Pullman and they all seem to be of about the same opinion they want Oregon to win, but they don't think the Webfoots can make it. That's about the way we feel about it, too. We would like to see the Ducks cop the first titular tilt, but from where we sit it looks like the Cougars. If Hays Is unable to play, Oregon will be in an extremely unfavorable position, as the Webfoots' bean pole is the only guy around who can come even close to stopping the Cougar record-breaker, Vince Hanson. Even if he is able to participate in the game, we don't fed that Hays will make much difference. When Oregon played the Leathernecks from the Marine Barracks here in Klamath Falls, we watched the altitudinous Webfoot center amble up and down the floor and he appeared to us to be of about as much use to the team as three tails on a cow. He has, of course, improved in the course of the season, but he still cannot be rated in a class with Hanson, even in our fondest dreams. t Anyway, we'll all know tonight how things shape up. We still say the Cougars, but we hope we're wrong. We've bean wrong so many times, once more won't hurt anything! Portland Eagles Squelch Stars In Puck Playoff PORTLAND, March 10 OP) Performing like an entirely dif ferent club before a hometown crowd, the Portland Eagles squelched the Seattle Stars last night 11 to 2 and thus evened their series in the northern di vision, Pacific Coast Hockey league playoff. Third game In the best-four-in-seven program will be played here Sunday night. Playing at home, Seattle won the opener 7 to 1. The teams played on even terms only through the first period, which closed in a 1-all standoff. Portland r u.s h e d In seven goals in the second stanza and coasted out. Four of the goals were made , in less than three minutes. Racing the Stars dizzy, Jim Planche whipped home four goals and earned an assist, and Bobby Morin had three goals and three assists.

Big Ten Commissioner May Be Selected at Meet Today CHICAGO, March 10 (P) The faculty representative com mittee of the Big Ten today unanimously appointed Kenneth L. (Tug) Wilson, Northwestern university athletic director, as conference athletic commissioner to succeed the late Major John L. Griffith, who died suddenly last December 7. By JIMMY JORDAN CHICAGO, March 10 (P) Of ficials of the Western conference, who have struggled for three months to select a successor to the late Mai. John L. Griffith as athletic commissioner, hoped to complete mat tasK today. Conference athletic directors have held four meetings and, after suggesting changes in the circuit's athletic code that would broaden the commissioner's pow ers, apparently reached an agreement Thursday. Yesterday they-met with fac ulty representatives from nine of the 10 conference schools, hoping to wind up the meeting by naming a successor to Grif fith, the Big Ten's only commis sioner. But the meeting broke up without a vote after Dr. W. F. Lorenz of the University of Wis consin, faculty committee chair man, suggested no vote should be taken without full represen tation of the group. He referred to the absence of Henry Rottschaeffer, University of Minnesota faculty representa tive, who was unable to attend yesterday's meeting.
