Weather Has Upper Hand Weather permitting, for the sec ond week In a row. the Klamath Sons have a baseball game scheduled for Recreation park tomorrow after noon. The Mt Shasta city team, which is hungering for a win after three straight losses this season, is the opposition.

On the sottball scene two more tilts were cancelled last "night be cause of wet grounds at Modoc field, and will have to be played later on this summer. There are a pair of contests on tap for tomorrow after noon at Modoc practice field.

Needs Essential Service THAT MEANS: JUNE 15 Yale's Great Guard Still Full Of Pep 01' Pudge Maintains Players Getting Soft By HARRY GRAYSON NKA Sports Writer NEW YORK. June 7 (NBA) Welter W. Hetfelflnser is an ex traordinary figure. He's been called the greatest of gridiron gladiators and nas been an almost legendary Idol of Yale men for 45 years. He s Puds-e Heffelfiiuter. better known by his nickname of starting as a is-year-oia scnoot- boy in Minneapolis In the days when the game of rugby was being modi fied to suit the American boy's yen for knocking people down. Pudge ended his active career at 65 by playing in a charity game In Min neapolis against kids young enough to be his grandsons. Al 75. Old f lit Aii-Anteriran guard of IsM-ve-gl climbed Into a uniform to give high school line men pointers. Crowding so now. he still takes time out to teach corner lot football teams. HetfelfiiiRcr lies been commis sioner of Hennepin county. Minne sota, which Includes Minneapolis, for many years, is vice president ol a New York advertising agency, has a ranch and oil Interests hard by the town of Blessing. Tex. He hasn't missed a football game played by the Oolden Gophers of Minnesota for years. Comparing the gridiron snort of his day with modern football, Hetfel- lingers one gripe is that modern players are too soft. 'They wear too much armor, he complains. He maintains there were less injuries in the old days when the athletes let their hair grow long and used nature's methods of protection. He does, however, rule out the old handlebar mustache. It put a handle on uie wearer lor an opponent to grab onto. radge says old-lime players were no heftier than those of today, and points to Yale's immortal end, the 160-pound Frank Hlnkey. In col lege Pudge welshed no more than Jot Bounds, whii-h la around ear for a good guard. Today you d exuect to see a wis. ened. doddering octogenarian. In stead, he's a marble statue six feet four Inches in height and weighing 340 pounds, and that is solid muscle. He has never lost the snan In his step, has a keenness of men Mil ty that Is astonishing. Walter Camp coached the Yale teams of Heffelflnger's era, and the only reason Pudge didn't make All America in his freshman year was that the All-America business didnt start in earnest until he was a sophomore. He never lost the steam that made him the terror of opposing footballers In fact, when he was 54 years old. In 1919, he was barred from Yale practices In the beet interest af a battered Bulldog squad he had been helping. Well, Anyhow OREGON CITY. June 7 ( V. C. Pedersen went fishing and caught a bear. It was on the east slope of Mt. Hood and Pedersen sighted the bear high up in a tree. He grabbed a .23 caliber rifle from the automobile and felled the bruin He told friends excitedly he shot a 700-pound bear. It dressed out 70 pounds. The United States navy band of Washington, D.
