LA BARB A ISK' I WINNER OVER I BENNY PELZ PORTLAND, pre., Dec. 16 Fidel La Barba, Los Angeles, tanner featherweight champion, left handed his way to a six-round decision' over Benny Pclz, Portland, here last night, before a capacity crowd at the' audi torium. Pelz, with a weight advant age of seven : pounds fought back gamely and showed to advantage in the early rounds. La Barba then changed his tactics and soon had the local boy missing vicious blows and at the same time played a tatoo- to Pclz' face with his skillful left. Pclz' face was quite puffed at trie t Irtish while La Barba, showed little Indica tion he had been In a fight. I Tho return match between Johnny Hansen, Portland i welter, and Tony Porttllo, Seattle, was the feature of the card and fulfilled expectation It would be a battle royal. Referee Tom Louttlt called It a draw which did no harm, although Hansen made a great finish In the sixth round, -just as Portlllo did In , their previous match. The only knockdown oame in the third when Hansen went down from a haymaker to the Jaw.. He crawled on his hands and knees to hlo corner to hear the advice of his second before getting up. This knockdown . undoubtedly Influenced the referee In his draw decision. Both boys' were staggered with fierce punches throughout the bout.

"I was Just having a lucky day," laughed Herman when some one suggested ho had made about 60 per cent of the tackles In the line. "It was a lot of fun." "Lucky?" snorted one, of his team mates, "Why, you were Just having an average day, Herman."

Returning Stars Give Sophomores Tough Hurdle To Pass In Breaking Into Big Ten Cage Picture By John W. Ktnhr CHICAGO: m It looks like a tough year, -for sharp -shooting sopho mores in Big Ten basketball. In most Western conference camps there'll be an abundance of return ing regulars to defy sophomorlc am bitions. -Two coaches will be able to put completely veteran quintets on the floor - from : the start; another has four 1631 regulars on deck, and five others each , will have three of their last year's regulars available. Unless new talent forces Its way into the picture, Michigan and Fur- due, both, consistently high-ranking teams, could start In right where they left off last March. But that's not to say they'll, have any distinct edge on Northwestern, which ran off with the 1031 title with the record of 11 victories and one loss. The Purple is well forti fied with replacements for two grad- uatcd regulars, Bert Riel and Frank Marshal. Craig Ruby, whose Illinois team dropped Its first five games last sea son and tli en sprinted to win seven In a row, the finale being the lone defeat handed Northwestern, has four highly-regarded regulars on hand.

Meeting In New York the naval aaademy graduates', association , de cided tho time had come to interest prep school gridiron stars in matric ulation at the academy. ; Long, lean years with no occasion for celebration because of victory and a possible return of Army to tho regular schedule, was pointed to as tho reason. Tho association will send out speakers to prep schools to interest football players in Annapolis. ' It will seek to have available congress men who will be willing to appoint these promising young players once accepted at the academy they will bo required to maintain the regular scholastic standing. Navy coaches reappointed yester day have expressed a need for play ers averaging fifteen pounds heavier than middle material in tho past and the graduates are determined to pro vide it.
