Wash., in the 10-round main event of the Portland boxing commission's smoker, held in the Armory arena Thursdav niaht. and It was a well- earned verdict. The Portland welterweight made his best showing in the Infighting, for Is that department he i peppered. Davis with so many snappy blowa that blood was drawn from the fifth round on. Davis took two rounds, the first and the eighth, and in the eighth It looked as if he had Harper on the way to Queer street. After landing a terrific jolt on Bobby's chin which sent him flying into the ropes, Davis attempted another swing, but this time Harper forced himself into a clinch and weath ered the storm In great fashion. TENTH IS WHIRLWIND Although Harper had the better of the argument for six - of the rounds-- It was the whirlwind 10th "which made certain the decision rendered by Ref eree Ralph Gruman. Harper didn't let Davis get set during the final three minutes and he kept coming In all the time. Not once during the entire bat tle did Harper go Into his shell, and to his credit it must be said that he did everything to make the battle well worth the time and admission. Both athletes appeared in great con dition and for a time it looked as If Davis wag rain frig strength as the con test . progressed, . particularly In the eighth. However, the Oregonlan didn't back water, but stood up and met the rushes of his opponent. At long range, Davis had the better of the argument in that he landed the most hard blows but In the clinches. Harper peppered the Northerner : about five to one and was this angle of the . fracas that CARDINALS BEAST FOR GAME WITH HENDERSON'S TROJANS ' Stanford University, Cal. Nov. 10. L N. "S.)

CALLAHAN SUBSTITUTES In the six round ' semi-windup, Tim Callahan substituted on r couple ot hours notice' for Joe Hoff, who was stricken' with appendicitis early in the evening- and was rushed to a hospital for an operation. Callahan met Mike DePinto and -there was plenty of ex citement. Callahan took the lead until the third, when he ran into a haymaker which floored him. That one punch overcame the "red headed athlete's good start and the rest of the battle was nip-and-tuck. Referee Gruman pleased everyone by calling it a draw. Chick Rocco i surprised the fans by taking the decision from Ah Fong In the first six round encounter of the evening and Chick deserved everything he was given.' At that. Ah Fong cer tainly showed that he couid take 'em and still come back for more.

Most ; people-; considered that there was something more behind Calv- fornja'e withdrawal than the highly altruistic reason given officially that it "was someone else s turn Rumors were flying thick and fast. but diplomatic silence was the rule everywhere. The undercurrent of gossip, however. seemed to give basis for a belief that all was not serene within the highest circles of 'the coast conference and an outburst might follow. Should the University of Southern California be chosen as the Western competitor the East will go up against the team that has held Calif prnia to a 13 to 0 score in the toughest game the Bears have played this year.
