ROSEBURG ARMORY, JUNE 11.
8:30 P. M.
Weaver-Pacer Combat And
Hager-LaBelie Opener Menu
Offered Mat Fans Saturday
Although billed as a preliminary, the one-hour, three-fall wres
tling battle between Tex Hager and Pierre La Belle at the Roseburg
Armory Saturday night will carry more importance than the head
liner between Buck Weaver and Lefty Pacer.
Ben Sherman, great little grap
pier who holds the Pacific coast
light-heavyweight mat title, is
leaving soon for the Hawaiian
Islands where he is taking an
unusually fine business oppor
tunity. And because of this he
has turned over his coveted
crown to-Matchmaker Don Owen.
Owen has announced that a
double elimination tournament
will be staged throughout the
northwest mostly In Roseburg
to find a successor, and desig
nated the Hager-LaBelle bout as
the first of the series.
Hager was extremely Impres
sive here last week by defeating
tough Tony Filletti and is given
a slight edge over LaBelle, whose
only recent appearance was in
a tag-match in which he and
Rene LaBelle defeated Filletti
and Tony Ross.
The match should be a sci
entific classic in which LaBelle's
Hungarian leg clutch and drop
kicks will be matched by Hager's
flying head-scissors and drop
kicks. It should be a spectacular
skirmish. Although one defeat
does not eliminate a contender
from the tournament, & victory
will go a long way in deciding
the eventual winner of the Coast
light-heavyweight belt.
Weaver is also a contender for
the vacated championship, but
because Pacer holds a 15-pound
weight advantage, the headliner
will have no bearings on the
tournament. Weaver once held
the championship and is confi
dent he can regain the title. He
will have a rugged time against
Pacer, however. ,
The southpaw from Detroit
was impressive here recently
when he advanced into the finals
of a one-nig',it tournament, only
to lose to Rene LaBelle in the
final bout. Weaver, the former
fancy diver and football star at
the University of Indiana, is ex
pected to have too -many guns
for the 195-poundor. He uses
with considerable authority such
holds as the neck-breaker, drop
kick and flying tackle.
The opening bout will got un
der way at 8:30 p.m. Elton Owen'
is scheduled to reteree both
bouts.

Policeman Has Clost
Call In Vacation Mishap
NeaV tragedy marked Roseburg
City Police Sergeant Lloyd Lar
sen's two-week vacation, he re
lated upon return to duty this
week.
While motoring to Eastern Ore
gon with his wife and three chil
dren a front-tire blowout caused
the car to carom to the far side
of the road. The road paralleled
a river and the embankment
dropped "almost straight down
about 10 feet to the water's edge,"
Larsen related.
"If the car had gone another
two feet, It might not have been
such a good vacation," Larsen
reminded.
A pleasant aspect of Larson's
Vacation was time spent fishing
in Eastern Oregon's Owyhee res
ervoir, where bass and crappies
were plentiful, and fishing, for
salmon later, along the Oregon
Coast.

salmon run absent -
ASTORIA, June 10.ilP The
June salmon run, once the heavi
est of the year, failed to material
ize in the Columbia Kiver this
year.
Ushermen report that Bill-
netting has virtually ceased. There
was a brief run, but high water
hampered fishing and when the
river dropped back to normal the
salmon had disappeared.
However, this year's catch was
slightly better than a year ago
when disastrous floods ruined the
fishing.
