Bobby O'Dell, Jockey, Says Sande Best of, All Bobby Odell, a jockey who is well known on the Central v cir cuit, comprising Kansas, Colorado, Benrasha, Oklahoma ' end Texas, landed In Salem yesterday frem Canada where he has been . for several months, end left again last night by automobile with a friend for Ashland, 4he first lap" of a trip to Tia Juana where he hopes to ride again soon.- Odell says he never . has ridden in a race with Earl Sande, but he is well ac quainted with the world's premier jockey and says he ia the cleverest and sqnarest jockey he ever met. "Sande Is different from most of the jockeys," aays Oden. "As soon ' as the race is over, he is away, and , doesn't : hang . around with the other - boys, and doesn't have anything to do with their gay parties. - If he can't ride square. , he' won't , ride, that's all there Is to it. He wins it he can, and if he sees 'a hole as "big as your hat, he is going to try to go through it. He always looks his horse over before a race and if he doesn't! like the way he is rubbed down, Sande rubs him down himself." Odell last saw Sande at the big derby at "Lexington, Ky., - where Sande rode Zev to victory. Odell is a native of Indiana. He has ridden such well known racers as Evelyn Thaw, Unconcerned. Way , Behind and others. , He rides at 102 pounds, but just now weighs 115. In Canada recently he ias kicked by t a horse and received some fractured ribs that may make it difficult for him to get back into the racing game for awhile. Besides racing he . has followed carnivals and circuses es a con tortionist, i He started as a news boy, and says he has gone .back to It several times. ' "I landed An Salem with 3 cents In my pocket," said Odell. "I hope to get back on my feet pretty soon." fi : l jv . -r ... Announcement PAIGE and JEWETT AUTOMOBILES ARE NOW SOLD BY Wm.

After trotting over the land scape for many miles, knocking the stuff in out of wo punching bags and more or less crippling up several of the local boys who of fered to lend a hand out of civic pride, Big Bill Hunt, Salem's su perdreadnaught In the squared cir cle, is confident that he will gather in the posies tonight - when , he meets up with Eddie Richards, a heavyweight slugger from Port land. ''. Matchmaker . Burris announces that he has made everything ready for the big go at the armory, and that if either : of i the heavies breaks a ropeor pulls down a ring post, some somebody in that ring is going to get terribly walloped. From a close-up of these two hefty gents, they seem to be in very good condition. ; Of late they have been "knocking our Bill around" con siderably, but on this festive oc casion. William . has decided that someone else has got5 to drop and that if Mr. Richards feels he is en- to Call and ' ' ' 1 titled to more than four rounds in good condition he must show the folks something he never showed before in the way of defending himself. ' v - !, Just to give the fans a little ex citement in the way of some fast going, there has been included on the car a six-round affair between Willie Murphy of Salem, and Bud Taylor of Portland. These lads are lightweights, and the dope sheet shows both of them are fast, foxy and gritty to the nth degree. While looking about for a pair of likelies to fill out the card from the standpoint of. the fan who en joys seeing plenty of rough going. Matchmaker Burris ran onto Brick Buchanan, of Independence,' and Jim Robinson, of McMinnviUe, both welterweights. While ; the fighting pedigree of these out-of-town boxers might ' be a ' trifle short, past performances . advise one that Brick and Jim really crave to knock somebody out when they show up in the ring.
