Tuesday. March 14, have! been
laid on the shelf at least In part.
Word was received yesterday
from Earl Snyder ; of Corvallis,
tbe top liner with Fred Hall of
Salem, that he cannot come. The
Illness of bis wife, and a rush of
work in bis place of! business,
where he cannot be sared with
out losing his loo, he claims,
make It necessary j to give! up he
match. Salem fans are not satis
fled with the explanation.
. Manager Overdorg at once wired
. to Portland, and secured the ser
vices of Art Richards, the middle
weight boxer who ! recently went
on against Basanta Silngh, the
Hindoo wresfjer, in a match of
gloves against grapples. Richards
will come to j the middleweight
limit, 15 pounds. " Hall has
weighed as low aa 155, btlt will
. enter tbe ring fully up to the lim
it, so that It will be an' even
match .The public will be disap
pointed In not seeing Snyder,
who was touted as having an im
pressive record of 18 knockouts
In his last 18 matches.; Richards,
however. Is known! to be a slash
ing battler, and He and Hall ought
to make a whirlwind match.
Ritchie of Portland was yester
day secured by wire, to take Syv
erson's place against Krim. Syr
erson bad been substituted for
. Hayes, and now he too has to give
it up, because of an Injury re
ceived In training. "'

Lwill also rtslgn his honors. One
or two other local matches will
be substituted for this one which
had been j slated between Arm
strong and Raymond of Salem.
Dan Healy, of Salem, who is to !
meet Joe Bittles of Chemawa in
the semi-final six-round event has
been working out for the past two
weeks at Portland with the fast
boys of the Rose City. He realizes
that in the Indian he has a worthy
apponent, a game, two-fisted lad
who has the strength of a welter
weight and a style that baffles
any but a resourceful or dead-in-luck
boxer. It hasn't been fully
decided whether the Indian is
phenomenally clever, or merely
efficiently awkward in his own pe
culiar style. There is nothing else
nearly like it. anywhere within
the ken of Salem ring fans. But
that he is a bad actor with the
gloves, all who have seen him
agree, and it is conceded that
Champ Healy is talking tbe only
safe coarse, by getting as ready
as a man can do for the clash.
Bittles and Krim are working
steadily out at Chemawa, and
there's no question of their being
tit. Some; of the lads out there
have worked up on -coal shove' in?
at the school heating plant. Some
of the splendidly athletic wrest
lers who did things to the Salem
high and the, Oregon City wrest
lers, had practiced up mostly with
coal shovels, and they appeared
without an ounce of surplus
weight and with figures like
bronze Apollos. o

farms.' I

Portland. Spearson also placed
second in the five-mile event put
on by the Portland News. Besides
Spearson. Joe Racine, a fellow
tribesman, is reckoned as a par
ticularly good prospect for the
distance runs. Both will go in
for the mile, or anything longer
They are running three or tour
miles every day, rain or shine,

tournaments.
The two Evans brothers, from
the Interior of Alaska, will go in

ABE ON MARKET
Spanish and German Makes
Found in Local Stores
Cost is Small
Considerable numbers of the
Spanish and German revolvers
and automatic, pistols have been
sold, even in Salem, enough to
make it an interesting topic for
gun men to discuss.
Revolvers made by Orbea
Brothers, at Eibar. Spain, are now
sold here, patterned so closely aft
er the Smith Wesson arms that
only an expert can tell the differ
ence save for the name. The Cas
tillans have a gold monogram set
Into the walnut grip, the same in
position though different in de
sign from the genuine American
arm, and the name is stamped
ever so lightly on the under side
of the grip frame, instead of n
on the barrel as the real S. ft W.
arms would have. The newcomer
Is made In several of the big.

where arms are not bought with
the Idea of long, heavy, accurate
shooting.
If the Spanish arms should
prove to be durable, and accurate,
they would soon run the high
priced Amerioan product off the
market.
The national arms market is
also being filled to the brim with
G-rmad-inade arms. , Luger pis
tols must be coming by the car
load, and are being retailed and
holesaled (rem the strangest
points. Over at Moscow, Idaho, a
strictly agricultural community
and a town of only a few thous
and population, there is a distrib
uting agency. The new Lugers
are apparently carved out with a
bucksaw and an axe, file-finished,
and if there is any good material
in them it is carefully disguised
by the crude, made-by-the-million
finish. They are made to sell for
less than half the old price, and
do not compare with the German
goods sold prior to the war In
finish or safety. They do not have
the complete double safety that'
used to make the Luger a formid
able arm. "Colt's automatics,"
made in Germany, are also in the
market, selling for less than half
the price of the genuine Ameri
can arm.
Dyer Elected President

TOLEDO, O., March 10. Mil
waukee was j awarded the 1923
tournament and Elmer C. Dyer of
Toledo was elected president of
the American Bowling congress,
to succeed John T. Smith of Buf
falo at the annual meeting .held
here this afternoon.
Standings in the two man divis
ion were shaken up considerably,
R. Ochs and F. Spreitzer of Joliet,
Ills, went Into first place with
1,259, displacing Peterson and
Zuhn of Chicago, who had held
the top .for a week.
A new pair also appeared in
sixth place when W. Bagnell and
J. Ladas of Joliet knocked down
1.208 pins. ' The 1.206 bowled by
L. Kerner and R. Kelly of Ligon
ier, Ind., gave the pair eighth
place in the list.
