Saturday night.
Douglas County fans, however,
will watch with interest the per
formance of an 18-year-old new
comer mat critics believe Is the
best young prospect in the sport
today Dale Kiser or fortiana.
The youngster is still a "green
pea" among the veterans, but he
nas been given superb iunaa
mental training by his brother.
Jack, who at one time was the
youngest matman ever to win
the Coast light-heavyweight title.
He has an amazing physique and
is as fast if not a faster stepper
than his older brother. He has
been training under Jack for
two years and is now making his
first move into professional ranks
and has already knocked over a
couple of experienced grapplers.
Young Kiser will' meet Billy
Hunter in the one-fall opener on
Saturday's show here. While
Hunter Is not a veteran, the
young Canadian has had much
more experience than the Port
lander and may know too much
for the novice wrestler whose
only previous experience was in
amateur ranks.
Hayamakl vs. Williams
The semi-final between Al Wil
liams, ex-Navy champ from Chi
cago and one of the roughest and
toughest in the business, and
Sugi Hayamakl, should be a stel
lar skirmish that might well
turn Into a Donnybrook. The
Jap from Oklahoma will be able
to matcn Williams' ineviiaDie
rough tactics with Jiu-jitsu.
Interest, naturally, centers
around the Weaver-Klser one
hour main go. Weaver will be
seeking his fifth tourney victory
in tne matcn and a certain
berth in next week's semi-finals.
The former University of Indiana
football star, however, will be
meeting one of the most formid
able matmen in the game in the
popular Portlander. Kiser spe
cializes In the spectacular drop
kicks and flying maneuvers off
the ropes. He will find himself
the popular favorite, because
Weaver has collected a few local
enemies for recent tactics used
against Hayamakl and again in
defeating Georges Dusetto here
last week.
The opener will get under way
at 8:30 p. m., with Elton Owen
as referee for all three bouts. ,

Local Peewees
Win Twin Bill
At Myrtle Creek
Roseburg Peewees took both
ends of a double bill from the
Myrtle Creek small fry at Myrtle
creek yesterday, 7-b ana u-ii.
Both games were hard fought
and Roseburg was forced to en
ploy all its know-how to take
the tussle. . .
In the opening game, 14-year-
oias battled lor seven innings,
while In the nightcap, 12-year-olds
slugged it out for a torrid
four-inning session.
Parmeter's home run in the
seventh and Helllwell's triple in
the second inning sparked the
initial encounter, but Myrtle
Creek went ahead in the fifth
when Aiken, Jones and Kemp
scored on a single and a Rose
burg error. Roseburg, however,
came back with three runs in
the seventh, to take the tilt
Roseburg's. Kenney and start
ing pitcher Verrell did outstand
ing jobs on the hill, allowing
only three hits between them.
Myrtle Creek pitcher Phillips was
tapped lor lour scattered nits
including the three- and a four-
bagger.
In the closing contest, Hose-
burg 12-year-olds went wild in
the third Inning, tapping pitcher
J. Cavener for four hits good
for eight runs. Four more runs
by Roseburg in the final inning
was too much for the home team.
Myrtle Creek held the Initial
lead, however, and it looked bad
for Roseburg until the frantic
third frame. Goff was the out-'
standing 12-year-old with two
home runs in the first two in
nings. Shortstop Groff also hit
a homer in the first, which help
ed Coach Forrest Loghrey's boys
stay ahead for two frames.
Roseburg pitchers Sanders and
Sargent held the host club to
seven hits, but J. Gavener was
also able to limit Roseburg to
seven bingles.
