Basin Cage League Shaping Br HALE 8CARBR0UGH The much - discussed ' Basin Basketball league, burled for four years during the war, had a breath o life blown into it last night 'and -there is a good chance that the loot) will get Into operation shortly alter Christmas. Representatives of several teams already formed and In the process of being formed met last night in the council rooms of the city hall to make plans for the league's resurrec tion. Teams on the probable list Include at least one and maybe two from Tulolako, one each from Chlloquin, Henley, Bon anza, Malin, Merrill and the Latter Day Saint's church here, and a number of other business teams may possibly be formed in Klamath Falls after a little work by the league backers. The biggest problem before' the conclave last night was the selection of a league leader, someone to put the motivating power into the loop and get the ball rolling. Finally a general plan of having a three-man com mittee locate a man to head the sporting enterprise and to lo cate a contact man connected with each team was decided upon. The leader may 1 be se lected today, i Playing space was another problem discussed. There is a good chance that the KUHS gym will be used for most of the games here if the schedule does not interfere with the schedules of the Victory league and high school games, and the Marine Barracks gym may also be used. Floors in Malln, Chlloquin, Tulelake and other towns put ting up teams can also be used. . A $25 entrance fee will be assessed each team, this money going to pay for courts, of ficials and other game expenses. Sponsors of the aulntcts would equip the teams. That fee was based on eight to 10 games. The pre-war basin loop fee was $10, but as many as 16-22 squads were in play. A great many men who played in the pre-war league are back from the service now and many have shown an inter est in reviving the competition. There is a great need for recrea tion facilities for the out-of-school young men here and the smaller towns are highly inter ested in being included In the loop because of the lack of other sports in those localities. The out-of-town competition is expected to arouse more spirit in the league play than purely local competition would. Any players, coaches, officials or sponsors interested in the new loop may contact E. E. Hambrick at (lie city hall. His office at present is being used as a clearing house for the Basin league until a leader is found.' .(Men Drub Eureka To Pace Meet ! Grants Pass, Cottage ! Grove And Weed 'A' !

The Martinelli-Sherman af fair is scheduled for four ten minute rounds, and is sure to be a lively scrap between two of the most exuberant musclers on the circuit. , A five-canto Belcastro-ParksJ matcn ngures to be nearly as fast as. the opener. Old Pete, despite his years of mat warfare, goes about his mauling with the en thusiasm of a youngster and Parks, with fewer summers to his- credit, is a nimble and ac complished grappler. Herb prefers to keep his work clean but doesn't object to fol lowing his opponent's lead in roughing it up. And with the Weed Assassin in the ring there's very little chance that the fight will stay clean much after the first canto. The Jones versus Hood scuffle doesn't have a chance to be clean after the first gong.
