Color Problem In Chandler's Lap
A wire story yesterday from Washington reported that
Sen. Happy Chandler of Kentucky, baseball's now high com
missioner, would resign from the senate November 1, Ostensibly
tn devote his full time to the job of running . , . ,
major league baseball. And right now Chandler
is faced with the first really big controversial
hunk of meat he's been called to bite into since
taking over Kenesaw Mountain Landis' old job
the color problem In big-time ball.
Branch Rick? Jr.. who teemi to be fol
lowing his old man's example in keeping the
baseball commisiionor up nights, has bought
Jackie Roblson from the Kansas City negro
Monarchs and plans to use the former UCLA
grldster In the Infield of the Montreal Royals.
Montreal is the International league farm
club of the Brooklyn Dodgers and Roblson Is
the first negro player ever signed for organized
1 1 1 y 1, ! In nmnnM in hfl OIllV 0110 Of
a couple of dozen colored players acquired by "..!
the Brooklyn chain, but the controversy is going to center around
him. Rickey expects trouble and expects some players in the
Dodgers' organization to quit, but he hopes the situation will be
ironed out "jwr. rsc. problom thl0ugh hU long
career as commissioner, but Chandler is getting it dumped
xlght In his lap.
Ferrari's Buck Leads Sweepstakes
A 287-pound four-point buck bagged by Frank Ferrari of
Klamath' Falls on Horsefly mountain now tops this seasons
entries in Ed Bell's annual mule deer sweepstakes Ferrari made
hta klU with a .300 Savage. Another heavy buck entered recent y
was brought down by Lewis Payne, also on Horsefly mountain
and also with a .300 Savage. Payne's buck weighed 271.
There have been a number of reports drifting in that the
deer are on the move now, with cold weather coming to the
mountains, but conditions this weekend should make for good
hunting at the end of the season. The large number of hunters
expected to take to the woods for their last crack at a buck will
keep the deer stirred up and be a big help to shooters.
Recently a Washington news release announced that the navy
was going to release some 40,000,000 rounds of ammunition,
much to the gratification of a lot of local nimrods who have been
scouring the town for shells. j
Well, the shells came but they were all skeet loads, sum
ber eight shot with three drams of powder, and hardly suit
able for hunting migratory waterfowl. Dealers and sportsmen
alike have turned thumbs down and are again looking ex
pectantly toward the navy.
Pelicans Up Against Another Tough One
Fans who saw Medford play Eureka a couple of weeks ago
say that the Klamath boys are up against another classy outfit.
One local said the Logger eleven was the slickest, cleverest, best
coached small squad he's seen in a long time, and the 38-0 score
was no indication of the battle they gave the Tornado. Versatility
Is their strong point, plays being pulled from the T, single wing,
double wing and box formations.
And I know a guy who claims never to have won a bet who
, has Klamath and 13 polntsagainst Eureka.

LOS ANGELES. Oct. 26 ()
Two of the Pacific coast's three
great backs of the season match
tricks tonight as Jake L e I c h t
leads the Oregon Webfoots into
the coliseum against Cal Rossi
and the UCLA Bruins.
Leicht and Rossi rate as per
haps the top runners of the far
west, with St. Mary's Herman
Wedemeyer the region's most
sensational passer and also a fine
ball-carrier.

Matchmaker Joe Waterman said
today.
He reported the match "signed.
sealed and delivered" after a
telephone conversation last night
with Tex Salkeld and Jack
Capri in New York. The New
York State Boxing commission
has approved, listing Kahut a
logical contender because of his
recent decision over Hilton
(Fitzy) Fitzpatrick of Los An
geles, Waterman reported.
Lesnevich has been guaran
teed $30,000 for the bout.
Quarterback Leaves
OSC Campus
CORVALLIS, Ore., Oct. 26 UP)
Bob Hamlin, Oregon State first
string quarterback, got the call
to report to Cal. Tech Nov. 1,
leaving only two regular quar
terbacks, Murl Anderson and
Jack Heaton in the lineup for
the Idaho game set for Nov. 3,
here.
The gap was partly offset by
the return of Sid Sythe, promis
ing frosh right guard, whose
draft board gave him permission
to finish his fall term. Letterman
Bob Stevens is again working
out and expected to be on hand
for the Nov. 3 show.
But Herman can weight The
Leicht-Rossl duel should furnish
thrills aplenty for the anticipat
ed crowd of 45,000. When Jump
In' Jake and Gallopln' Cal start
swinging those ends, the men
with the yardage chains are go
ing to be on the move.
Lelght can make the pigskin
do everything but squeal. He
runs, kicks and passos, and Is
a truly great defensive back.
He tackles with deadly ac
curacy. The finest ball-carrier to
come out of Stockton, Calif.,
high school, where he ran the
100 in 9.6 seconds, Leicht has
added finesse to blinding speed
in subsequent stops at Pasadena
J. C, Oregon, Randolph field
and the fourth air force.
Playing nothing but confer
ence games, Oregon has won two
and lost two. Aside from negro
Quarterback Bob Reynolds, Ore
gon has only inexperienced beef
to go with their guiding Leicht,
but witth him the Webfoots may
yet go a long way.
Rossi will be making his 1945
grid swan song tonight, as he has
been ordered, along with three
other Bruins, to report to Har
vard before UCLA's next game.
He will be ineligible to play at
Harvard.
Netting more than 100 yards
from scrimmage per game, the
rugged and speedy (10.1) Bruin
southpaw has established himself
as one of the best runners to the
left the conference has 'seen in
many moons. He is sturdy defen
sively, a good blocker and a fair
passer and punter, although sel
dom called on for the last two
duties.
Rossi Is fortunate In having
a better-balanced, if lighter,
supporting cast and the
UCLAni rule a six-point favor
ite. As usual, the feather-footed
bruins will be outweighed
this time 15 pounds per
man. UCLA's conference rec
ord reads one win, one lots. .

Gory Trio
To Appear
At Armory
Tonight's rassllng blll-of-fnrc
contains three of the goriest
crunchers on the Northwest cir
cuit in Brutal Jack Lipscomb,
Rough Rufus Jones and our old
veiled buddy, the Grey Mask.
Along with this gruesome
trio arc three more able-bodied
musclemen who have the same
penchant, if not tho same record,
for bloodshed as tho afore
mentioned triumvlrato, Herbie
Parks, Angclo Mnrtlncllt and
Joe Lynam.
Parks and the Mask have
the floor for one-half of the
scheduled double main event
and Lipscomb and Jones will
occupy the soft lights for the
other. Martlnilli and Lynam
get together in the curtain
raiser. Referee Wally Moss, who has
spent a part of the last two
armory grapple sessions on the
deck looking up, is scheduled to
be the third man in the ring and
his past experiences with Messrs
Jones, Lipscomb and Mask
should be fair warning against
leading with his chin.
Jones lost his first tiff on the
local canvas last week, dis
qualified for slugging Moss, and
that's how Clouting Canuck
Herbie got his shot at the seem
ingly Invincible Hood. Lipscomb
has been absent from the local
wars for several weeks and the
fans will be looking for him to
hand Jones just the trouncing
nes Dcen asKing ior.
The - fact that Brutal Jack
is the west coast junior heavy
weight champ forbids him to
fight anything less than top
bouts and the Dusky Detroit
er has signifed his utter con
tempt for anything less than
first money, so the idea of a
double main event two bouts
of six tne-minute cantos
was dreamed up to pacify
them.
The Hooded Hoodlum, who
may or may not be one Cyclone
Mackay, described as " an aging
wm.Hap mm Qnn Inlnnln "
should hnva no difficulty in
guxzllng Parks in much the same
manner as he's guzzlud everyone
else he's been Introduced to on
the local mat.
Show starts at 8:30.
