P o rtlan d O b server, M a y 6 1982 Page 9 Food drive returns for 11th year Project Second W ind, the annual canned food drive, is returning for the I Ith year to help feed hungry people in the Portland metropolitan area. On Saturday, M ay 8 th , stu dents will canvass neighborhoods in M u ltn o m a h , W ashing to n , and Clackamas Counties asking for do nations o f canned food. Elementary and m iddle schools w ill hold in school food collections from M ay 3rd-May 7th. This year’s goal is to raise 50,000 pounds o f non-perishable food for local emergency helping agencies. These agencies provide emergency food boxes to families and in d iv i duals with nowhere else to turn. Transportation for volunteers will be provided on M ay 8th by clubs from Region Three o f the Pacific Northwest 4-W heel Drive Associa tion. Community groups, churches, synagogues, and local businesses are supporting P ro ject Second W ind " P IL C o n ta c t" —L ea d -o ff h itte r K e tz la ff o f J a c k e o n H ig h S ch o ol m akes con tact on pitch in Tuesday's PIL actio n w ith Jackson at J e f ferson.

(Photo: J im m y Robinson) Cooney will win Sometime in June Jerry Cooney and Larry Holmes will square o ff to decide the heavyweight cham pion ship o f the world. Cooney will win. The time is past for Larry Holmes. He has certainly had a long and glo rious reign. Although he has never received the acclamation given M u hammad A li, he has certainly pros pered and should be fixed financial ly for life. T h e re ’ re only two serious con tenders on the h o rizo n , M ichael Dokes ranked number two by both W B A and W B C and Greg Page, ranked third by W B A and sixth by WBC. Page, who hails from Louisville, has all the tools but is lacking in that one im portant departm ent: deter m in a tio n . Page at 6-2 has all the tools necessary to become a great fighter. H e ’s nim ble. H e ’s quick, and has a great jab. Because o f his lack o f d ete rm in atio n , he often comes in overweight. And because o f the weight problem his upper body strength is not what one would expect from a legitim ate heavy weight contender. Page took on the atting Jimmv Young in a twelve-round U S W B A championship fight and was some thing less than impressive. In his prime Jimmy Young had a reputation for making fighters look bad and at 33 and 240 pounds, plus being on the other side o f the moun tain, he still made Page look bad. At this p o in t, Greg Page is only a dreamer in the heavy-weight d iv i sion. D yn am ite Dokes w ill p robably fight the w inner o f the H olm es- Cooney fracas and w ill win the heavy-weight championship within the next eighteen months. Dokes is a complete fighter who has heart, de termination, and a strong punch. In his earlier am ateur days, he. like Page, tried to emulate the great A li. A li had skills that no other heavy weight had ever had before or after. Dokes soon learned that A li’ s way was not his way. He came down o ff of his toes and became a flat-footed dynamite puncher. Dokes* handlers have brought him along well. The prediction here is that the Dokcs-Cooney match will set an a ll-tim e record for money earned. through c o n trib u tio n s o f fo o d , money and services. Due to so many people being out o f work, local hunger is becoming a more serious problem. According to Doug Rogers, D ire c to r o f Snow- C A P , and East M ultnom ah County helping agency, " W e are now help ing 50 per cent more people than we were a year ago. We must have the community’s support through Pro ject Second W ind or we will not be able to continue feeding people in desperate need.” Sen. H atfield and Rep. A uC oin are honorary co-chairpersons for P roject Second W in d . T he food drive is sponsored by the Food Bank and the T ualatin Valley Food Cen ter w ith support from the C ity o f P o rtla n d and M u ltn o m a h and Washington Counties.
