In southern Oregon, Medlord and North Bend are expected to keep their slates unmarred. What's puizllng prep lenders mora thun weekend reiiults is the title choosing. Tho Oregon High School Activities associa tion has ordered that tltllnts be chosen by vota of tho district schools votes to bo cast for "tcuin winning tho most gumus." lint thu rules nro sovoroly silent on a few vital points: 1. If tho team with tho most victories has uluyod only little schools, will It still get tho nod over a more powerful school which has hid a defeat? This rears a puz.ling head particularly In district 3's south , cm division, where little Wood burn und Cottage Grovo bid fair to ond tho aeason undefvat ed. Yet neither Is reckoned is strong as beaten Corvallls. Tho OHSAA and the district chairman both presume tho vot ing schools would consider the caliber of the teams but It's not In the rules, and If they want to voto for a little unilo fvutod school that's alrictly lloylc, 2. Sunposo two teams, which don't pluy each olhoi', emorgo with unbeutan, untied records? This may pop up in district 3's northern division, whero Co lumbia prep has no games sched uled against either tho other two so lar unbeaten squads; Mc Mlnnvlllo and Bcuverton. And tho titllst Is to be elected be fore tho end of the regular schedule. It's almost certain to occur In southern Oregon, but that district has already arranged for the contingency by sched uling a November 16 or 17 playoff between North Bend and Medford If both continue undetailed. 3. Should the voting schools, obligated to elect the "team winning mo mosi games count only Inter-dlstrlct tills or all games? Tha OHSAA and most district chairmen except district 3's northern , division, which says dofinltnlv It will count all games feel only games within the district should be consid ered. That system would give The Dalles as good a record as Hood f would also solve one district 3 I problem, by bringing Grcsham and Corvallls on a par with lit ' tie Woodburn and Cottage Grove as undefeated In the dis trict. But It promptly poses a now perplexity. If a schoolas many do plays many of its games out of the district, would all thoso victories be discounted? Tossing out tho inter-dlstrlct gomes If carried out to the let ter results in somo startling oddities. For Instance: Bend, defeated four times, has as perfect a record as Med ford. Bend's undefeated in Its district It's played only ono gome there. Roscburg Is also perfect In the district. It hasn't played thero at all. Dallas could lose every game ' and still claim an undefeated record In Its district. It doesn't even play In Its district. Discarding the palpable ab surdities, there remain aoma baffling problema in the titllst selection. Tha OHSAA'a atand on all of them ia that lt'a up f. to tha opinion of tha voting achoola. That's what the squads with championship hopes are study ing while Oregon's elevens roll onto tho gridiron for this week end's round. Threo points vital to hunters and sportsmen In this area came up -for discussion during the muetlng of tho Klamath Modoc chuptvr of tho Izaak Walton leuguo at the Wlllord hotel last night. Tho first was a discussion of gumo munugemcm In this coun try and tho chaptor moved to suggest to the stuto gnmn com mlHslon that tho state bo divided into six or alght districts, each in charge of a competent game management man who would conduct tho commissions busi ness In his district. With a local representative of tha game commission at hind, sportsman would b more able to air their opin ions and suggestions for lm- firovement of hunting and fisti ng conditions and the local man would be able to convey to the commission the needs and dealrea of hla territory, thereby working for better re latione between Individual aportsmen and the atate commission. The second point brought up regards the federal government s Eollcy in releasing ammunition, portmion have expressed their dlspleasura in the present dis tribution setup, wmcn nan al lowed shells to set Into chan nels not expected to receive ship ments and has left returning servicemen, enger to do a little hunting, faced with a lock of shells. The chapter hopes that some thing Is done In Washington within tho next ten daya to re lieve that situation before tne end of tho current season. Also the Klamath Modoe chapter la going to try to open new public shooting grounds In this area. There la a chance that some sectors on this side of the California Una may be opened up to public hunting but the lands will have to be developed and ponds created to make the spots mora at tractive to game blrda. At present most of the open hunting grounds are tn iaii fornln. No Pheasant Tags Needed In California No pheasant tags will be re quired for the coming pheasant season In California, November 20 to November 27, Inclusive, the ' i i wniiiuriiiu usil una game aivr sion has announced. In past years hunters have had to purchase a set of tags and tie ono to the neck of each pheasant killed. This year, however, sportsmen can hunt on their California licenses. Tho bag limit for pheasant Is limited to 10 roostors during the season. Shooters may have in tneir possession only two on opening day and no more than four any day after the season's opener.

Jacobs Takes No Chances Wiih $3,000,000 Gate By HARHY GRAYSON NEA Sports Editor NEW YORK, Oct. 25 Out of tho army have Come a couple of fighters who want to fight, only to find themselves shackled by commercialism. Signing Joe Louis and Billy Conn to again battle for the world heavyweight champion ship next June, Mike Jacobs in sisted on a no tunc-up match agreement. Louis, who will be 32 and out of action five years when he I u Joe Louis Billy Conn again engages Conn, realizes that he desperately needs to regain the feel of competition beforo a crowd. He mode this clear when he signed with the proviso that if Conn were allowed to engage in any tunc-up bouts, the same priv ilege would be accorded the champion. Johnny Ray, managing Conn, balked at the clause, held up his signing for a day, then haggled for a couple of hours before yielding to pressure and affixing Ills signature. By tho terms tho performers are permitted to Indulge In exhi bitions, take on refcrecing chores and moke radio appearances, but real battles aro taboo until they sidle through the hemp together. Jacobs will even pass on op ponent In the exhibitions. Talk about a dictator! Promoter Jacobs simply Isn't taking any chance of anything happening to a prospective $3,000,000 gate. After having done phenomenal business throughout the war while having practically nothing to sell, the hungry Jacobs fig ures he can feed the dear patrons most any old pig in a poke. And at tho record bucks office prico of $100 a rattle. Once the dough is in the till, the old Broadway ticket scalper won't care if Louis and Conn fight like a pair of Bummy Davlscs. "What could I do?" complains manager Ray, the one-tlmo feath erweight. 'Jacobs had the champion. I am confident Conn can still fisht. but Dcrhans some of the fight public might be skep tical. It wouldn't hurt to let them see for themselves whether Conn has gone back or not. We d like to make sure ourselves. "You can't tell me a flchtor can do his best following a long lay-off unless he has a couple of tune-up bouts." Conn appeared in 325 exhibi tion bouts in Europe, and says they didn't do him much good. It was strictly entertainment for GI's. Nobody got hurt. Billy the Kid thinks It not only fair to the public, but to them selves that Louis and he be per mitted to prove themselves to be what everybody contends is a $3,000,000 attraction. At that Conn considers the non-combat clause a break in his favor, for at 27 he is five years younger than Louis. "Personally, I thought Louis was developing a bit of a bay window when I saw him In Eng land two years ago," he beams. The bucks office-protecting clause means that there will be some pretty stiff competition in training camp rings. Cigar Store Brave Now Grid Trophy EVANSTON. 111..
