P age 4 T he CHEMAWA AMERICAN PUGILISTS SHOW GOOD FORM In their first real bout of the year the redskins showed some excellent form and tied the Salem “Y” last Wednesday. The boxers are under the direction of coach Rickard, a past master of the game, have- ing been the man about town in the apple district at Inchelium, Washington. In a main eventer, Peter Seltice, burly Chemawa lad, showed some mean technique and a healthy punch to cleanly knock out Tommy Winslow, a. former marine fighter, in the second round of a feature match at the Salem Y. M. C. A. Pete was hardly touched in the first round which was easily his on all counts. Ray Griffin, 120, Salem scored a technical knockout over David James, Chemawa. James Tory, 158, Chemawa, was given a decision over Wilbur Traglio, Salem. Jim Rogers, 157, Salem, was given a decision over Ben Palmer, 160, Chemawa. Henry Newman, 145, won easily from Wallace Zün dle, 145, Chemawa. Newman had too much reach for Zundle and Wallace was unable to get in any blows. REDSKINS TAKE SOUTHERN JAUNT Chemawa 29, Myrtle Creek 28. On the first day out from Chemawa the braves en countered Myrtle Creek, and unlooked for piece of competition which almost upset the dope bucket. However, George Vanderburg, one of last year’s “B” flashes pulled the “meat” out of the fire and the result was a hair breath score, 29 to 28. Chemawa 10, Ashland 37. Ashland not only scalped the braves but also rub bed salt in the wound! They defeated the braves handily and with ease. The Ashland group were a tall quint, the team averaging in height of over six feet. Chmawa 18, Medford 30. The first game with Medford was a plain slaughter with the Burghermasters sinking long shots from all corners of the gym as if there were no one on the floor but themselves. Chemawa 24, Medford 25. The braves finally awoke to the fact that Medford was about to give them two drubbings in a row and they decided the Burghermaster’s couldn’t do it. The citizens of Medford said that this game was one of the best they had ever seen for sometime. How ever, the braves came back with that well known “em- ty sack”. Even if they didn’t win they gave all they had toward the winning of every game and never once let up in any part of the tilts. Sam Shoulderblade was high point man on the trip. A lot of credit goes to Matt “Grayson” Adams, who helped keep the score down to the minimum by his excellent checking. This is Matt’s first year in basketball and with a little more experience will prove an exceptional player. The braves who made the trip were: Matt Adams, Joe Russell George Vanderburg, Edward Case, Sam Shoulderblade, Edward Archambeau, Capt. Pressley Labreche, Dave Archambeau, Willie Spotted Eagle and Noble Sanderville. They reported a wonderful trip and are looking forward to another.
