TWO Mm ii CflfiER 0 HE LOOP ilL-STM t : c-en tronv IDP1QID SNOW USE A needed boost to Crater Lake skiing and Crater Lake Ski club's efforts to Improve nation al park facilities we hope will result from the visit Monday and . Tuesday of Queen Dorothy Cast and her court of beautous skiing princesses. Despite some slightly Imper fect publicity connections with the Oregon Winter Sports associ ation Portland headquarters, the girls were well entertained dur ing their post-weekend stay in the city and at the lake. Thanks are due the Junior chamber of commerce for their cooper ation as hosts Monday evening. Enthused at Crater lake scen ery and Crater lake possibilities but not overjoyed at current lift facilities nor Government camp food were the gals, their chap erons and Warde Erwin and Har ry Miller, association officers in charge of the 2000-mile junket. Both men saw enormous poten tialities in Southern Oregon s winter playground, particularly Harry Miller, the dynamic Leb anon merchant who has been In the main responsible for the San- tiam area's outstanding develop ment by the National Forest ser vice. Miller was amazed at the pres ent snow depth and long-season skiing afforded at Crater and visualized a second Sun Valley with proper development. It's quite possible, we add, but not, by a long way, probable un der the present winter sports policy of the National Park ser vice. One stop before the queen and her court return to Portland will be made in the vicinity of the Umatilla national forest from which the following appeared PENDLETON W A moun tain lodge and other develop ments In the Tollgate winter sports area are in store for ski enthusiasts in this area of the Umatilla national forest.

Cleator. chief of recreation from Port land, inspected the Tollgate area yesterday with Umatilla forest representatives and lo cal ski club members to deter mine the type and amount of development needed.

Joe Drops 15th Tonite Manhattan Mostodoa Expected To Flotrea Quicker Than Camera DETROIT. Mich.. March 20 (UP) Joe Louis, defending his j heavyweight title for the 15th i time, will try to blast down his I second "Man-mountain" Friday j night when he meets huge Abe Simon of New York before a sell out crowd of 18,000 home-town fans. The Manhattan mastodon is ex pected to be levelled more quick ly than was Prime Camera, the ambling Alp, whom Louis! knocked out in the sixth round ! back in 1935. They're betting 2-1 Abe comes down in sections be-1 fore the fifth. j Jacobs Cock-Sure Even Promoter Mike Jacobs I seemed cock-sure of a Louis suc-i cess. He announced today a title; tilt between Louis and Tonyj Musto for St. Louis on April 8 and was negotiating for Joe to i battle at Los Angeles or Wash ington, D. C, in early May. Louis, too, shared the general confidence, despite the fact Big! Ahe will out-wcigh him about 47 pounds. Bomber Joe said, "Ii hope Abe gets up a couple time, anyway." Simon never has been knocked off his feet. He lost on a technical kByo to Buddy Baer in 1937 be cause of cuts, but no one ever had him on the canvas. Simon is a more compact giant than Camera and has better co ordination. Moreover he's right at his physical peak. 26 years old. Abe packs 250 pounds on a six foot four-inch beam. "Satchel Foot" Camera scaled 2 8 0 i pounds the night he met Louis, and Joe registered 196, a differ ence of 84 i pounds.

Looking for a Good Tim7 Com to Keno Dance 'EVERY SATURDAY NIGHT Music By OREGON HILLBILLIES 2 times in the first round, but got Olympics In Semi-Finals AAU Basketball Tourney Sees Hank Luisetti Got 22 Points in Contest DENVER. March 20 (UP) Hank Luisetti again tonight out shone all the assembled stars in the national AAU basketball tournament, as his San Francisco Olympics and two other Califor nia teams moved into the semi finals. Luisetti, basketball's most pub licized player, slipped in and out of the tall Seattle savidges with no apparent trouble, scoring 22 points as the Olympics defeated the Washington team 58-36. I The lightly -held Oakland, Calif., Athens scored a mild 48 38 upset victory over the Dallas, Tex., Wilsons, and the often rcpulsed Hollywood, Calif., Twentieth-Centuries smashed the Shrcvcport, La., Morris-Dicksons 47-38. Luisetti scored 16 points in the first half and six in the second, leaving the game with 12 min utes to play to receive a great ovation from the capacity crowd of 7000 spectators in City audi torium. The Wilsons, really the South ern Methodist university team under private sponsorship, were no match for the fast-break of the Athens that was almost as deceptive as that the Texans used in upsetting the Denver Legions last night. Chester Carlisle and Johnny McGcc were too much for the Wilsons, getting 18 and 14 points respectively. Dallas, principally through the aid of Grovcr Kce ton, who tallied 16 points, held Oakland to a 23-21 halftimc mar gin. Most of the portion of the sec ond half of the Seattle game in which Luisetti played lie spent in an entirely defensive capacity. Ed Liverirk. one-handed shoot ing artist of the Savidges, one of the 1940 semi-finalists, tallied 17 points but it was impossible to stop the point-making of the Olympics.

Buy All Your CAR NEEDS on One Bill Pay on Our Budget Plan 00ln ar A SI TIRES!; MA selection, three points for sec- ond team, and one point for hon orable mention. Seven ballots gave Horton first team rating and one put him on the second squad. Second place in the voting went to Marion Kirkpatrick. high-scoring Malm center, who was placed at forward on the all-star. He was named six times on first string ballots and twice on second team choices. To Ursa! Snapp, Merrill long shot ace, went thin place with 34 votes. The 170-pound guard who led Huskies through a gruel ling loop and post-season cam palgn drew (no top ratings and three runuerup selections. Snapp's team mate. Tommy Chatburn, was named four times on both first and second team ballots for a total of 32 points. Fifth place ended in a tic at 28 points between Bonanza's Bray and Jack Fleck of Merrill. Bray copped the honor by being named for the first team five times as aguinst four for Fleck Although the Huskies placed two men on the top squad, Chil oquin. according to ballot com pilation, nppeared to have the better balanced team. The Pan thers gained three spots in sec ond team selection for a total of four out of the first ten while Merrill could muster only one on the secondary and add up to but three. As a team the 1941 five-star combines speed, scoring ability and generalship. On paper it's a champion on both oflense and defense. It has height, weight, age and experience. Individu ally this is it: Chatburn A cool, unruffled, thoroughly experienced eager with a devastating eye. Tommy captained the Huskies In title and in practice. His leadership and ability to come through in the clutch saved more Uian one . ball game for the titlists. Chat- burn scored over 100 points dur ing conference play. Kirkpatrick Outstanding player on a mediocre team. He led Malin's scoring in 12 out of 14 games, shooting in 147 points during the season. Consistent on defense. Brny Six feet and three Inches of rebound excellence. Only a sophomore, his height overcame experience deficien cies and enabled him to often pace Antler scoring. Horton Called the "best bas ketball player in the county." the huge Panther was one of the fastest men in the B league de spite his weight. Eyed by more than one college coach for his football ability, Horton' coach believes him to be a better maple man than gridder. Of all 1040-41 Junior loop cagers. this is the one likely to go farthest in college athletics. Scored 114 points and was impassable on dc frnsp. Snapp High scorer of the high-scoring Merrills. Urgent Ursal tempered fight and aggres siveness with a cool head. A leader second only to Chatburn, he passed Tommy on the point chart about mid-season and in creased his lead with each game Snapp's 24 points against Bly near the campaign end clinched at least a tie for the Huskies and set a year's record for Indiv idual scoring. 1 Hi Hri!::o,rx,Yf Jil .BBS f SSLER eniVATS SLSNO - a BLINBIO WMISKIV.
