Fred Gay May Play Baseball In Klamath Fred Gay. lefthanded former Coast league pitcher and at one time chucker for the local navy air base's baseball team (1944). is now living in Klamath Falls, working for Ewauna. and is very likely to become a candidate for the city recreation spot : being vacated by E.

Coast Pro Basketball Loop Will Fold The Pacific Coast Professional Basketball league, which has in a manner pioneered the play-for-pay cage sport in the north west this season, will probably fold at the end of the schedule, If not before. ... Backers of the several clubs have been seeing a lot of money go in and not much come out. Portland and Vancouver clubs have shown a small profit, but the others haven't done so well. Reasons are many stadium troubles, too high costs, too small crowds, etc. Professional basketball is a good game, but there Is the fact that in basketball there are just too many games. There are more games played each week than there are specta tors willing to pay to see them. Klamath Falls was thought of for a league franchise last fall., but the arena facilities and cash customers aren't numerous enough for the professional game as a regular diet yet. Ex-Cowboy Beats Lipscomb In Armory Mainline Bout Billy Weidner, the Arizona ex-cowpoke, took two straight falls from Jack Lipscomb last night to win the armory main event, atop what was a .slow card all the way around. Lipscomb's extra-bad tactics of biting, kicking and rope work lost him the first fall in the opening round on a foul, but Weidner put the clincher on for himself. The winning fall was an in tricate affair, with Weidner on fop of a hodgepodge of limbs and torsos. The best, speediest bout of the evening was the one in the middle of the card between Billy Goelz and Billy Fox. The action went full blast for two rounds until Fox used his just- THOMPSON USED-CAR specials; 1940 Studebaker Commander Cruising Sedan.

AT FOUNTAINS Loop Laws Ruling Asked In Each State NEW YORK, Jan. 10 (VP) The National Football league, mov ing to prevent a recurrence of the attempt to rig its 1946 cham pionship playoff, intends to seek laws making bribery of athletes a criminal offense in every state in which the loop operates. Following the speedy convic tion of 'Alvin J. Paris on charges of offering bribes to two New York Giants players. League Commissioner Bert Bell said to day he already had asked the Detroit Lions to press for action in Michigan, and would ask all other clubs in the loop to seek such legislation. Bell announced his new move after suspending the Giants' Frank Tilchock and Merle Hapet pending disposi tion of their case sometime next week. They face possible lifetime banishment for fail ure to report bribe offers. In Washington yesterday. Fil- chock said he didn't tell the club of Paris' approach on the ground "my life wouldn't have been worth a nickel if I had. He said he feared physical harm from mobsters if he told any one. New Jersey authorities entered the continuing investigation after New York Assistant Dis trict Attorney George P. Mon- aghan said he believed Paris was an agent of a gambling syndi cate. In the league's drive for anti bribe legislation. Bell disclosed that he had asked his brother. Governor John C. Bell of Pennsylvania, to urge legislation in that slate, home of two NFL teams, the Philadelphia Eagles and the Pittsburgh Steeler. New York stale has had anti bribe legislation on its books since the Chicago Black Sox baseball scandal of 1919. The New York statute covers not only actual bribery, but holds that even an attempt to bribe or a promise of a bribe are crim inal offenses. The league commissioner said he is cooperating also with of ficials in Washington regarding possible federal legislation. Purity Code Ires South LEXINGTON, Ky., Jan. 10 JP) "Ridiculous."

GIANTS CLAIM ROOKIE HITTER NEW YORK, Jan. 10 (-Pi Ctint Hartung, 25-year-old New York Giant rookie with less than a half dozen games of triple-A baseball under his belt, appears certain to become one of the most publicized newcomers to the big leagues in the 1947 spring training season. Even if the big. raw-boned native of Hondo, Tex., for whom the Giants parted with $25,000 in casn in addition to four play. ers, fails to come anywhere near his terrific build-up, he should prove a bargain buy. If nothing else, he is sure to bring the Giants close to a million dollars worth of publicity. "He sounds too good to be lieve," said Mel Ott, Giants' manager. "I've never heard such raves about a kid ball player. The first thing I'll do when he reports to Phoenix, Ariz., next month will be to put a bat into his hands and see if he is real. I don't know where he fits Into mv plans simply because I don't know whether he is a pitcher or a hitter. If he is half as good as they say he is I may use him three days in the outfield and the fourth day on the mound." Hartung's biggest booster is Eddie Dyer, manager of the world champion St. Louis Car dinals. "The Giants came up with the best looking youngster In the last 10 years when they ob tained the kid." enthused Dyer. "He's a natural. He can't mils becoming one of the greatest right-handed hitters in base ball." Hartung. who went into the army air forces in the winter of 1941 and re-enlisted for a one year term after the Giants pur chased him from Minneapolis In the winter of 1945, is expected to be discharged next week. Dyer saw him play army base ball in Houston and vows he hits balls out of sight beyond fences that no one else can reach. Dyer tells about a game in which Har tung played first base and ac counted for the only run of the game with a tremendous homer. Along about the sixth inning, the pitcher tired, and Hartung relieved him. He faced 13 men, walked the first, made the second batter foul out and fanned the other 11. Buc Shortstop Not Satisfied PITTSBURGH, Jan. 10 WP Pittsburgh Pirate Shortstop Billy Cox, who batted .290 last year despite recurrent attacks of Euro pean malaria, said today he had returned his contract unsigned because he was not satisfied with the salary offered. Hut General Manager H. Roy Harney said the club had offered Cox "a very substantial increase" but the shortstop, who spent imi-a in tne armed services. declared there was "aulta a dif ference" between what he asked and what the Pirates offered.
