At least 18 young fighters are on the card Friday night, April 5, when Roseburg Recreation pre sents Its championship boxing bouis In the Armory, under direc tion of Coach Jimmie Garrison. In the double main event, Champion Dale Guse defends his featherweight title against Con tender Maynard Talley, and Fly weight Champion Cecil Zachery will fight the contender, Walt Wagner. Guse and Zachery are both good fighters. Garrison said, but Guse is a "public idol at best" and he goes against a boy who is "a very clever boxer and a hard hitter with either hand." As a sidelight to this champion ship bout, Garrison said he made Guse and Talley come in to prac tice at the Armory at different hours, because they "hate each other so." Garrison thinks that Talley is a "cinch to win." In the semi-finals. David Ha rem and Jack Wagoner are both contenders for the lightweight title; Fred Butler will fiht Jack Omarde, an "overrated out-of-town boy," who fought here the last time. A special event will feature Jimmie Garrison himself ex changing blows with Sgt. Bob Zachery, who is "a mighty clever boy."

O. punch; if he follows the fight game, he is a future pro cnamp, the coacn opines. Four blindfolded boxers, each with one glove and a can of peas which he must shake continuous ly, will provide comedy relief. If one of them falls, slips, or is knocked off his feet, he is disaual ified. Last man standing will be the winner.

More$oaps, BRIM If J U5EP FATS I E ll THIS country is short of in dustrial fats, mighty short The supply is so low that the government must decide how much fat can be released to make soap; how much for other peacetime goods. The shortage would be even worse without the wonderful help American housewives are giving by turn ing in used fats. Keep saving to tide us over this emergency. It will help you get more soaps and other products you want so much. OMX VHCLC SAM.
