step up to the tee and blast one
out, and you can hear them ooh
all around you"
Argentine and Chilean fans
who followed Snead's recent
matches had plenty of cause for
exclamation He played with the
smaller, faster ball still in vogue
there and smacked it farther
than he can hit the larger one
now used in the United States.
Its hard to say how much
farther the small ball goes"
Snead explained. But I played

CHICAGO, Nov. 20-When the

here early in December, Manager
Jimmy Dykes and the Chicago
White Sox definitely will be on the
market for a hard hitting out
fielder.
Dykes, back from California

everything to get one-two if we
can-even if I have to sacrifice a
top-notch pitcher"
However, that top-notch pitcher
will be neither Ted Lyons nor Thorn

i've got to keep Dario Lodigiani,"
Dykes continued. He played some
good baseball for me last season.
And we positively will not trade
Luke Appling, Taft Wright or Joe

And there he ended baseball dis

Cougars Vision Rose Bowl Bid
Because OF Finishing Drive

gon State and Washington State
have the strongest claims, the
former because it has more confer
ence wins and no more losses than
the others. and w. s. c. because it
has completed its conference sched-
ule with five wins and three defeats
Those who have failed TO include
victories over Idaho and Montana in
the standings may be travelling on
the wrong track. These two schools
are full-time members of the con-
ference and have equal voting rights
in naming the Rose Bowl repre-
sentative. The fact they do not play
a complete round robin schedule is
not their fault. They have been will
ing to play any and all teams, if
given the games.
Although the Rose Bowl nomina-
ton usually has gone to the team
with the best record in the stand
ings, there is no conference rule re-
lating to standings. Commissioner
Edwin N. Atherton is authority for
the statement. 1t is also his unoffi-
clal opinion, lacking a rule to ex-
press himself officially. that games
scheduled with Idaho and Montana
should be included in any win-and-

An official of the Fish and Wild

extension of the closing hour foI
waterfowl shooting and a later sea
son running at least to January Is
in two ways. He first expressed
concern because We were not able tC
get good shooting and then asked
J if the early season did not con-
serve ducks?
As matter Of fact. we had oul
limit on both the first and second
day We shot. Over a period of &c
years our days in blind would not
average two season. which should
be proof Of no hope of personal gain
in advocating a later season we
believe would be far more conserva-
tive because it would cut down on
cripples
The early shooting this season
has been consistently at long range
and the number of wounded birds
appalling. This is based not only
on personal observation. but also or
the comments of wildfoWlers who
know the game better than We ever
can hope to know it.
The excuse for not extending the
open season into January IS the
need for rest period before the
birds start their northing in March
The same period in early fall woulc
be just rs valuable.
