DOW Br HALE SCARBROUGH I? "J Nothing Wrong Another indication that Klam ath Falls is returning to normal cy can be seen in the fact that the Basin basketball teams, operating for the first time since the war, now has 10 teams functioning, compared to the 16 and 18 in the good old days be fore Pearl Harbor. If the players cared to wear discharge buttons on their bas- the gold but tons would be almost as nu merous as the players on the floor. Take the Ashley Chev rolet team, for instance. Ex servicemen now playing . ball for Ash ley in the Ba sin loop in clude Georee Cooley .Byron Cody, Harold and Mike Eittreim, Sam Redkey, Neil Mayfield, Rex Young, Bob Perkins, Pat Moses, Allen Cline and Bob Erlingson, all of whom played on pre-war Pelican teams and some of whom were on league teams before the great struggle. A survey of any of the other nine teams would bare just about the same situation. There's nothing wrong with the youth of a nation who can quit basket ball to go off and fight a war, then come back and play some more basketball. Up at the high school 17 teams are operating in the Vic tory league, in addition to the three school teams. Taking the county as a whole there must be at least luu teams, school and town, scrambling for the scat tered playing space. Writing At Random Latest on the one-man-gang situation is that Rough Rufus Jones has decided that his rass- ling career in the northwest is a used firecracker and the dusky one has returned east to bestow his favors on unwary Toledo, unio. .The Cleveland Rams, pro foot ball champs, may move their franchise out to Los Angeles for the reason that LA will probably become the greatest football town in the country . . . the only thing against it is that all the big teams are still back in the east and there aren't enough towns out here large enough to support the kind of competition the Rams have been used to playing. .. " - Next game for the Pelicans is with Medford and we'll be able to tell a little more about how good the local boys are after they meet the Tornado, Wildcats. Frosh Get Easy Wins Over Bonanza Br JOHN LARSON -KUHS Kraier Repeating a win gained earl ler in the season the KUHS Wildcats walloped Bonanza 37 21 on the Bonanza home court Saturday night and the Fresh men took a prelim from the Bonanza B squad to a lopsided 48-1 & count. Despite the small bandbox court which hampered the Wild cats' fast break and added ma terially to the roughness of the game the 'Cats had little trouble In downing their opponents. The 'Cats got off to an early lead on quick baskets by Zaro- zinsiu and urisman and the Bon anza quint was never in reach of the lead again. Half time score was 18-8. Don Zarozinski had 10 points for the Wildcats and Charles Heilbronner hit eight. Smith tallied six for Bonanza. Paced by Jack Lust's 15 points the Rooks won easily over the Bonanza Bs in the open er. The Frosh were just too tall for the Bonanza five and Coach ,d Hyan only left his first string in a few minutes. Dearborn made eight of the losers' 15 points.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 14 W) Col- lego football teums may show i more offen.slvA imuini- nvi full if coaches take advantage of enunges in the rules made by uie iwuonai ainictic associa tion's football rules committee. William J. Bingham of Har vard, committee chairman, an nounced the chuuges yesterday me cioso oi uie uiree day meeting. He explained one revision pro vides that t h e quarterback, reaching under the contcr with his hands in position io receive the ball, is in a leual txisltlrm even though less than a yard be- iiiua uie tine oi scrimmage when the ball is passed. Previously Uie quarterback had to either receive the bull or withdraw nis minds to a point behind the line of scrimmage. Adding deception, this rule change aids the T-formntlon nnrl the single wing and may result in a new "T-wing formation," committee members said. Other revisions announced in clude: 1. On an illegal pass by cither team the penalty Is five yards from the spot of the pass; and also involves tho loss of down if made by the team which put the ball into play by scrimmage. The rule formerly provided that in case of an Illegal pass, the ball was brought back to whero it originally was put In play for the penalty. 2. The number of time-outs In each half has been Increased from three to four but when the watch is stopped by substitution only sufficient time to complete the substitution will be allowed. 3. The size of numerals on players' jerseys will be Increased from six to eight inches in front and from eight to ten inches on the back. Numerals must be single contrasting colors. 4. The penalty for a foul com mitted on a kicked ball when the foul occurs after the ball has crossed the line of scrimmage and before it has been touched by the receiving team is made from whero the ball is put Into play. This removes an unduly severe penalty under which the ball went to the offending team at the spot of the foul, committee members said. It's Bobby Jones : rh.:r '. . A bit on the heavy side.
