 ROUNDUP

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 3 = The word going round the Big Ten is that the battle for the 1945 foot ball championship will be between Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota and Ohio State (listed alphabetically The dope is that the first three are well stocked with veterans while the Bucks, defending champions, have come up with another crop of freshmen that seem perfectly able to take care of themselves in any kind of competition. And among the veterans Ohio State will have American Bill Hackett at guard and Paul Sarringhaus, star of the 1942 team, in the backfield. Ohio State and Michigan each will play the other three top-rated con- tenders, but Illinois and Minne- sota no not meet.

CI5 COUNTING LARGE IN BIG LEAGUE RACES
Returned Vets Deciding Fatfors in All Con-
 ests Yesterday
tBy Associated Press)

Returning servicemen are hold ing the balance of power in both major leagues. Yesterdays pig league scores showed a former SOL dier or sailor the decisive factor Ill each of the six scheduled contests.
 Detroit's ex-star Al Benton blanked the h ampion St. Lotus Browns, GO, scattering seven hts. Jack Kramer, his mound opponent, did a turn in the Seabees but that didn't save him from his fourth straight loss. Red Ruffing, 41-year- old veteran of the New York Yankees. showed he had lost little of his pre- war cunning in stopping Boston.
 Out in Cleveland, the Indians and Chicago White Sox held an old-fashioned slug-fest, captured by the Tribe, 1871 Pat Seerey's grand slam homer in an eight-run third inning was an important factor but a neat job of relief chucking by Pete Center, an ex- GI. saved the day for Cleveland.
 Chicago reversed the score of Wednesdays game by handing Pittsburgh a To blanklng in the only scheduled contest in the Ma tional League, and once again a former soldier was the hereditary Peanuts Lowrey, who rejoined the Bruins this spring.
 Washington twice shaded Phila- delphia, even though Steve Gerkin, Philadelphia luckless and winless pitcher who spent two years in the Army, out-pitched Marine Pieretti in the nightcap. The double win gave the Mats a clear hold on second spot.

Council Discusses
Plans for Airpori

Improvement of the city's Mob
Hill airport was discussed at the
Tuesday night meeting of the
city council. Operator HerD
Henne appeared and reported
that increasing numbers Of out
siders are using the local field.
One reason for this, he stated,
is that during the recent unset
tied weather this por4, was sat
isfactory at all times while many
other localities were shrouded in
fog and mist.
However, the accumulation Of
junk and old auto bodies ada
cent to the field provide an
eyesore and are especially ap-
parent from the air. The council
agreed to make every effort to
cooperate in improving this site
uation.
The question Of improving the
runways was also discussed. "A
study will be made of various
methods and costs will be de-
ternined.
Curling Of First avenue from
Washington to Cascade street was
considered. Street Commissioner
Joe Stradling reported that it
would be possible to provide a
So foot street, a foot wider than
Kennewick avenue. Trees planted
are close to the sidewalk and it
will not be necessary to disturb
them in any way. Besides im-
proving the street it is believed
that this will provide sufficient
parking space outside Of the met
cred area.

took over his new duties at the
Thursday noon meeting from u.
L. ,Keolker, retiring president.
The term runs for full year. In
his final address as president Mr.,
Keolker pointed out that the or
ganization faces a full program
in the coming months. "There is
a dam to be built, an irrigation
project to be constructed, a hos
pital to be pushed, and numer-
+ous other smaller projects to be
considered" he said. He express
ed his pleasure at having had
the opportunity to serve.
Mr.. Dorothy in response pledg-
ed his fullest abilities in carry
ing on the program and express
ed his faith in the cooperation of
the membership.
Maps of the proposedchanges
in the Sacajawea park to protect
it after the construction Of the
Umatilla dam were brought be-
fore the body for consideration
by Secretary Dick Rector. Two
plans considered call for either
the construction Of protecting le-
vies around the present park or
the filling to raise the level Of
the entire park. The latter plan
was endorsed by the chamber as
the best solution. This would re-
quire moving the museum to a
higher spot and charging the
north side of the park to COM
pensate for. some lower ground
that would be flooded.
Members rejected a suggestion
to close stores on December "a.
but endorsed a motion to close
the day before New Years.
