The game, which is expected to bring money into the Shrine Hospital for Crippled Children, will be played on Multnomah field August 28 and will open the 1948 gridiron season. Only high school players of last : season, who have graduated from school, will be eligible to compete In the game, thereby taking It out from under the Jurisdiction of the Oregon high school activities asso ciation which has frowned on all atar games. Dick Sutherland, upstate coach, will have as his first assistant Ed Ryan of Klamath Falls, who led the KUHS Pelicans Into the quarter finals of last year's football playoff gainst The Dalles.

April S OPt Uncanny accuracy from the foul line had the Portland Indians leading Seat tle 3-0 today in their best-of-five series for the Pacific coast profes sional basketball league crown. The Indians collected 13 points on 17 tries from the charity line last night to squeeze out a 73-72 win over the fading Athletics. With all remaining games of the eerie to be played on the Portland floor, the Indians are overwhelm ing favorites to take the crown. The series will be renewed Thurs day. Next to their efforts from the foul line, it was the Indian's bal anced scoring power that pulled them through last night. Seattle's Boody Gilbertson and Player -Coach Al Brightman each hit for 21 points to lead the tally makers, but four of the Portland starters counted 15 or more points to offset them. Noble Jorgenson led the Portland Parade with 18. Al Popick added 17, Erland Anderson 16 and Smith 15. Eight College Boxers Okay For Tryouts MADISON. Wis.. April 5 (TV-The eight best collegiate boxers In the country hope to represent the U.S. In the Olympics. The top ringmen from colleges won their championships in the NCAA meet here Saturday night and qualified automatically for the V S. Olympic tryouts, scheduled June 28-29 at Boston. University of Wisconsin boxers again monopolized the NCAA awards, winning the team title for the fourth straight year and tak ing half of the championships. Wisconsin fighters won 17 of their 20 tournament bouts for a total of 45 points. Lightweight Charley Davey of Michigan State and Middleweight Herb Carlson of Idaho were the only champions to repeat from last year. Carlson took a split decision from Eddie Rieder of Maryland. Look At The Phils They're Being Picked For Third Place Finish Gill Stays On As OSC Mentor CORVALLI8, Ore.. April 5 (IP) Amory "Slate" Gill has decided o remain at Oregon State as head basketball coach. The veteran Beaver mentor an nounced he has rejected offers from Minnesota and UCLA and will re main at his alma mater. He has been here for 21 years. Student demonstrations urging him to remain were held on the campus all last week. He said he also had been besieged by tele grams from alumni and friends to stay on at OSC. Baseball fans of our town perhaps feel no particular allegiance to the Philadelphia Phillies, but since the National league club Is going to be a foster parent of the Klamath Falls Gems professional baseball outfit this spring and summer, let's take a gander at what the Phils have in the way of talent for the coming season. Behold, the experts arc saying the Jays might finish up around third place in the National behind Brooklyn and St. Louis, of course. The mind of man. especially young man. can hardly grasp such a prediction because when the Phils do what comes natcherly they place somewhere around seventh in an eight-team race. Spring training camp palaver is about as cheap a commodity as there is left in this high-priced world, but if even half the hot air coming out of the Phillies' camp at Clearwater proves to be some thing other than seasonal wind, maybe third place isn't too high to spot Klamath's baseball foster father. Bob Carpenter, moneybags of the Phils, just paid Curt Simmons, a high school pitcher. 60.000 for signing a contract, and that at least should prove that the front office is interested in seeing some nice things happen to the Bluejays on the diamond. As manager the Philadelphia Nationals have Ben Chapman, a great hitter and speedy fly-chaser with the Yankees. Top coaches are George "Moose" Earnshaw, some years ago one of the game's first-water pitchers, and Dusty Cooke, a flashy outfielder. But the brain-trusters don't play, so have a look at the active talent, Good Hurlers and Solid Infield The pitchers an old staff, overall, but potentially a fine one if each can take his regular turn. Knuckleball Dutch Leonard. Schoolboy Rowe. Oscar Judd. Biix Donnelly and Walt Dubiel should be the starters. young Simmons and Ken Heintzelman could add the spark that will keep the old-umers working like maniacs. The infield the Phils have acquired Emu Verban and Eddie Miller who should be as good as a shortstop-second base combination as to be found in the National circuit. Chubby Al Flair, a rookie who like Major Hoople's find can really pole the apple, is working at first base and the veteran Bert Haas is stable at third. Pair Of Rookie Beauts In Garden The outfield Harry Walker, league-leading hitter. Roy Collenbine and Del Ennis normally would be plenty to start In the gardens, but Manager Chapman seems to have found a couple of petunias in his rookie onion patch. Johnny Blatnlk. up from Wilkes-Barre. and Ritchie Ashburn, from UUca, N. .. have been subbing for Walker and Cullen bine in exhibition games. Both are hitting well and are faster than Walker and Cullenbine ever dared be. Harry Walker probably will be back in the lineup as a regular, but camp talk has Cullenbine down as a fourth wheel. Chapman declares Ashburn can't miss being a Philly standby within two seasons. Catching Is A Problem Everywhere weaKesi spot in me ciuejay varsity lineup is oenind tne plate, but the same can be said for all but a handful of clubs In the big time. Andy Seminik probably will be No. 1 receiver. Veteran Don Padgett No. 2. and Al Lakeman No. 3. Another factor to the credit of the Phils Is that Bobo Newsom. inveterate traveler of the big leagues, is being given a chance to prove he can stifle National league hitters. Newsom is reportedly working for Chapman on a "$10,000 if I win. nothing if I don't" agreement. Newsom came to the Yankees late last season and won seven games to assure the New Yorkers the American league flag. Late Entry Into Chain-Store Ball Only recently have the Phils come into chain baseball, but it's now an often proven fact that championship teams aren't developed without a farm system. President Bob Carpenter, while gaining notice as one of the game's free-handedest spenders, is also corraling the Phillies a farm string he hopes will keep a steady stream of talent coming up. The link between the Klamath Gems and the Phils is only a slight one the major club can put players here if needed and have first option on buying those whose contracts are owned by the Gems. But who knows? Maybe three-four years from now some boys who got their start here will be described as "second Ty Cobbs or second Walter Johnsons" by the Bluejays' publicity writers. Ann Curtis Triumphs In AAU Splash Meet Seals Remain Sole Unbeaten Coast Outfit Portland Divides Week-End Twin Bill With Oakland, 6-5 By The Associated Trent The tirst week ot baseball in the Pacific Coast league produced some prodigious hitting, a few good pitch ing performances, and left the Snu Francisco Seals the only undefeated team.
