IMT, Itfhl 71 J1 vM I ' Big Hole Of ' Hdcaho l&eady For Anglers Zae-Grozano Bout In Wrigley St odium Wi Out draw Lous The big light of the year, between Tony Zale and Rockaby Rock Orazlano, la announced for Wednesday, July 18, In Chicago's spacious Wrlglcy field. The Illinois athletic commission has snatched the fistic plum away from New York and a dozen other cities after the N;w York boxing commission slapped a year s suspension on Oraiiano lor not reporting- a bribe offer ,' This might be the big break in the grip New York and Mike Jacobs have long held on big-Ume boxing for so many years. Almost without a doubt the Zale-Oraiiano middleweight title bout will draw the bigscst gate of the year, bigger than anything Louis would draw If he chooses to slap around one of the contenders to his crown. Boxing has been dominated by Madison Square Garden and the Yankee stadium for so lonr some people have gotten the notion that the blr show can't be held anywhere else and be a financial success. But that attitude wont stand up when you remember that the second Dempsey-Tunney fight was staged in Chicago and brought down a gate of S2.650.00O the largest ever. Raiders Schedule Game On Modoc Sport notes on the local scene: Southern Oregon college at Ashland has tentatively lined up one of its games to be played here at Modoc field, that with Humboldt State October 11 . . . last fall we wanted the Raiders to come over here but It couldn't be arranged ... ...... Softball here is in for a splurge this summer, if various plans being tinkered with ever crystallze ... In addition to the eight and possibly more teams In the independent city league, there is talk of an all-star squad to represent our town on the road, and the YMCA is out to or ganize s couple of church Softball circuits . . . where they are all going to play is anybody's guess, because at this writing Klamath Falls isnt top heavy with ball diamonds . . . Sons Have To Show Improvement Jimmle West allowed only one hit In seven innings against Medford Sunday, much to the surprise of several hundred fans back of the wire netting . . . Last year Jimmy could never hit any sort of stride on the mound, but he may be in for some good games this summer . . . The Sons looked classy in spots during the opening games, but leaked a lot in other spots. Ill Hatfield proved that he can roam eenlerfield with the best in this league, and Bart C.olbar showed Jhat straightaway left center hitting knack was still there ... Earl Brooks and Dale Gra ham performed creditably at second and short . . . Nevertheless the Sons aren't in any pennant-winning shape yet . . . Portand Puts Ginger Into Snapp Portland sports writers were much taken with the way Ursal Snapp took care of Wayne Parker up there the other night, and are plugging for Ursal to get the next main event assignment . . . Incidentally he has been tabbed "Ginger" Snapp by the City of Roses scriveners . . . Snapp now has 17 knockouts in 19 professional fights, and has lost only one defeat marked up against him ... He broke Parker's jaw. There is a possibility that Ursal will fight the next 10-rounder here, although there is a growing scarcity of opponents for the hard-punching Merrill middleweight.

April 29 tffV-College basketball has grown too big for its abbreviated britches in an attendance way. and it may be seven to ten years before it can tailor its seating capacity to accom modate even today's public demand. And if public basketball interest continues to grow at the same pace of the last decade, it may be a quar ter of a century before both the Beavers Take On Seals In Fight To Retain Lead By The Associated Press The Pacific Coast league, start ing a new series today, finds the top-rung Portland Beavers taking on the fifth place San Francisco Seals in a race In which only five games separate the leaders from the cellar occupants. The Los Angeles Angels, only a few percentage points behind the Beavers, tangle with last place Seattle. The Angels have yet to lose a series; the Rainiers haven't won one. Other contests find the Oakland Oaks facing the Sacramento Solons. while the Hollywood Stars meet San Diego. Infielder Tony York of Seattle, hitting .482 in 15 games, leads Pa cific Coast league regulars today. Frank Kerr, San Diego catcher, batted safely in 16 contests for an average of .425. " Joe Marty, Sacramento outfield er playing in 25 engagements of the first four weeks of the season, rounded up at a .388 clip. Phalanx Favored In Derby LOUISVILLE. Ky.. April 59 iPu Practically everyone in Derbvtown today was telling you that Phalanx was the "big" horse in Suturdav's Kentucky derby and Faultless was the horse to bet to win the pot. But Sylvester Veltcli. the collegiate-looking young fellow who put the saddle on Phalanx and there fore is only the trainer of the derby favorite, has thrown in his vote against Faultless as the horse his "gentleman from Virginia" has to worry about. He Is scared, he admits, of Jet Pilot, the "cosmetics kid" from the barn of lipstick princess Elisabeth i Ardent Graham, and On Trust, the Plumber Earl Stice's horse from California, in this running of the chase after the roses Saturday at Churchill Downs. The hardboots and the "hare heads." who are arriving with every train and bus and plane for Satur day's scramble and its record ex pected 125.000 crowd, are thinking about what Plain Ben Jones might do. Plain Ben is Faultless' trainer and is looking toward his fourth derby triumph with the tall son of Bull Lea. Season Opened On Sea Lions PORTLAND. Ore.. April 29 Pv The Oregon state fish commission has reinstated the open season on sea lions, allowing the animals to be shot in Rogue river waters as a fish conservation measure. Arnie J.

This conclusion is substantiated by an Associated Press survey of the nation's leading colleges in all sec tions of the nation. Basketball used to be a stopgap winter sport, in many cases being "carried'' by fooCall receipts. . But suddenly the college moguls have painfully awakened to the fact they've got a tremendous money maker on their hands and hand cuffs in the box office. There just aren't enough available seats for the sports-hungry public. In vir tually all schools the students have first priority, and the public get its basketball on the air or from the rafters.

A 29 M 6-13-20-27 No 704 By The Associated Press Should the suddenly home run conscious National league continue anywhere near its present race. Ford Frlck's loop will easily set a major league record for tour-baggers in a single season. Not since the early thirties has the senior circuit been so homer hnnnv Tn 41 cames to date. Na tional league players have walloped 69 for the distance, a far belter I average than their record-breaking season of 1930 when 892 homers were hit.

Ruth III Again Its best home run output was 1940 when 883 were hammered. With such a dearth of home runs In the American league, naturally the pitchers have had a holiday. Ten hurlers have held their oppo nents scoreless in the Junior circuit with Cleveland's Bobby Feller and New York's Allie Reynolds boasting two shutouts apiece. National league pitchers, on the other hand, have twirled only five games In which their opponents have failed lo cross the plate. In yesterday's only scheduled game in the big leagues, Detroit's Dizzy Trout Joined the rapidly growing list of shutout flingers by blanking exposure and the excitement of his iippearance at Yankee stadium Sun day when 58.339 funs honored him. Mrs. Ruth said that the former home run king's participation in the ceremonies had proved very tiring and that he "was completely over whelmed" by the festivities.
