By HALE SCARBHOUGH Look Out, Earl Probably I shouldn't think luch thoughts as this, but I can't help it. I hope Bob Keneston mauls the liv- , lng daylights out of fcarJ Malone at the rasslcs Thurs day night, and here's the rea son why. Malone un suspecti n e 1 y bears an al most overpow ering resem blance to a character whom was once my ac quaintance but never my friend tnat 1 coma see, That person was a first lieu tenant in the marine corps who, bv some unmerciful disaster, was leader of the platoon in which I was a blooming corporal overseas. That person, whose name I'm religiously trying to forget, was a sereeant. as I recall, wnen we embarked on our guided tour of the Soutn Pacific c-acK in He was commissioned a f i r s lieutenant by some exigency of the field and after the come-up- Dance assigned back to our pla toon to replace another first looie who had departed hence. That person then proceeded to lead the rest of us through as trying an existence as ever be fell thirty-odd young men in a locality where life at best is a pain in the neck. Every man in the detachment, from the platoon sergeant down to the newest replacement pri vate, fell victim to the barbed- wire tongue and autocratic be havior of this gentleman who, in fact, seemed conscience-stricken by the cost of the war and did his best to reduce expenses by" endeavoring to remove every stripe In the outfit. When he had that accom plished down to a rock-bottom level he then set about a course of giving one and all a dose of corrective treatment in the is land brig. Indeed, it was only the Intervention of ljt. Col. George Van Orden, later of the Klamath Falls Marine Barracks, that saved the aforementioned Corporal Scarbrough a lengthy . term in tne basule for some triv ial misdeed. This eentleman and Earl Ma lone, the Salt Lake City grap pler, could pass for twin broth ers, even to the stringy hair, tat tooed forearm, paunchy mid riff, dark skin, matted hair on chest and general beer-barrel proportions of torso, Judging by Malone's antics in the ring, the two gentlemen even tninK along the same lines. Of course, I have nothing against Earl. He might be the salt of tne earth as well as the salt of Salt Lake, probably is. But, because he by chance happens to resemble this other person which heaven should have forbade my sympathies riae witn Keneston. Watch out. Earl! Edged Out Of Tourney Spot By Rogue River Vandals Will Need Expert Marksmen BERKELEY, Calif., March S JP) Unless they have an un commonly stringent defense. Idaho's Vandals will need sharp shooters enough to bucket at least 47 points per game when they bring their ambitions for a conference basketball title here this weekend. Their opposition in the best two out of three games for the Pacific coast crown, California's Golden Bears, has a habit of making the other side need that much to win. For the season, in which the Bears won 27 in 30 games, they recorded an average of 46.2 points for each encounter. In 12 conference carries thev aver aged 46.7 points, winning all but one to take the southern division championship. NEW YORK Chuck Taylor, 143, Pittsburgh, outpointed Freddy Archer, 144, Newark, N.

March 5 (JP) A Columbia Kiver packers as sociation officer declared here that commercial fishermen are the only group fighting to pre serve the salmon runs m the Columbia river. "Most people are sitting idly Dy, not lilting a hand to prevent destruction of this great re source," Thomas S. Sandoz, ex ecutive vice president, told a chamber of commerce meeting. He said thousands of fingerline salmon die annually in un screened irrigation ditches and from stream pollution. He con demned what he said was un heeded" power and irrigation de velopment and protested con struction of more dams in tne Columbia river basin. "I defy you to show the need for more power. You haven't beeun to develop uses for pro jects you now have," he declared.

March 5 (IP) A state fish commission first year program to revive smelt runs in the Sandy continued here with transfer of 4000 more smelt from the Cowlitz river in Washington into the Sandy river. Officials said the experiment will be conducted three more years in an effort to develop a yearly smelt run in tne bandy. The Cowlitz run has never been known to fail, while the Sandy run has been interrupted six times between laii and 1845. Happy Stumped By Problem Of Mexican Loops WEST PALM BEACH, March 5 (IP) All is confusing on the Latin-American baseball front, so far as Commissioner A. C. "Happy" Chandler is concerned. Before leaving for Cuba to day, baseball's new head man confessed that he did not know what if anything would be done about the big leaguers who are jumping to the "outlaw" Mexican league. He said, however, he was in process of making an extensive investigation, that each case would be considered individual ly, and implied he mieht even make a trip to Mexico if it were necessary to do so to get a com plete understanding of the situation. "One thing I can tell you for sure," he said, "is that there is no rule ' of organized baseball SIMPSON'S PET SHOP Virginia StmpiM Bird SvcclmlUI Canaries Goldfish Dogs Aquariums HarntMct CoIUri Leaihei Tan Sprstt'a bb Bartf Mt.
