Harry Pelsinger has been working like a champion ill his daily work outs with Niel Zimmerman and other local boxers and looks better than he had ever appeared before for a bout here. Harry is just getting used to the ten-round bouts and the fans can look for a good deal of improvement in his work. Pelsinger fought his first ten-round bout in Portland and likes the long distance Antwerp internationals. The applica tion was received here by Secretary F. W. Rubien of the American Ohm- pic committee, from H. Wilfrid Ma- loney, Stanford university track coach, who also was coach and cap tain of the American team in the inter-allied games held in France last year. His letter reads in part as follows: "The track is one of the best, if not the best, on the Pacific coast and was re-leveled and renovated during the Christmas holidays.

In the second half each team marked up three field baskets, but "Push" Watson converted two fouls for the blue and gold five, which was Just enough for them to win. The James John- team was some what crippled yesterday by the ab sence of Dick Girt, who was kept out of the game on account of ill ness. The team showed a big im provement over the showing they made last week, when" they were beaten by the Hill Military academy. and with Girt in the game they will give tne other teams in the league plenty of trouble. Brame and Captain Huck Hiatt for James John played a great defensive game and Brame added two points to the Saints' score by dropping one through the hoop from the center of the floor. For Jefferson the entire team worked well together, with Chet Froude getting four baskets from the floor. The lineup: Jefferson (18) .
