He will slick to his power packed single wing offense and balanced line alternated with a short punt formation. Although many quarters say the Bruins will be Just as tough as last year, especially if Knox really uncoils, Sanders only an swers.

Tne Yanks' game at Boston was rained out. Two hours and 47 minutes after the Sox took over first place, they succumbed to the Athletics in the nightcap 5-3 and slipped back Inio second place. Tonight the White Sox open an important four-game series with the fifth-place Detroit Tigers. Manager Martin Marion has chosen lefty Billy Pierce (9-81 to oppose Steve Gromek (11-7). The Sox have beaten Detroit 9 of 16 games, but only 3 at Comlskey park. - Mariqn got good news yesterday when Dick Donovan, after pitching batting practice for the second time since his appendectomy, told Marlon he's ready to take the mound. As a result, the big right-hander who had won 13 and lost four be fore his operation downed him, will pitch in Sunday's double-header against the Tigers. "This really is good news," said Marlon with a grin. "Keegan (Bob) I comes back to us tomorrow. He 11 pitch tomorrow against Detroit. We're all hoping Dick and Bob will pitch like they have In the past." Counting yesterday's two games with the Athletics, the White Sox seven-day schedule called for 10 games. Asked if the heavy pro gram worried him, Marion replied: "Four of those games come In two days against Baltimore. They'll have to dig up four pitch ers too, won't they?" Of the remaining 30 Sox games, only 14 are against iirst-division rivals. ' HOTELS OSBURN HOLLAND EUGENE, ORE. MEDFORI Thoroughly Modern Mrs. J. E.
