BOB KELLY IS
Red and Black Players Have
"Off Day" in Shooting;
Visitors Fast
Speed in getting down the floor
and a new scoring system which
might be termed the "Beech-tree"
style of - play, enabled the Salem
high school basketball team to de
feat the scrappy Dallas high quin
tet SO to 18 on the local high
school floor Wednesday night. .
The red and black didn't look
nearly so good in .this game as It
did against Roosevelt high of
Portland last week, even taking
Into account Dallas' stubborn op
position. The local players with
the exception of Bob Kelly were
consistently wild in shooting, and
repeatedly failed to get rid of the
ball until they had taken too
.many steps. Half a dozen clean
shots went for naught because of
traveling" Just before they were
made.
Dallas Has Fight
The Dallas players were fast in
dividually, a fact which showed
up principally on ' defense; but
they wasted too much time getting
down the floor, allowing the Sa
lem defense to form before they
reached scoring position; and they
"were too small to break through;.
However, they proved extremely
'accurate on long shots, and kept
trying; in spite of the odds
The Salem team showed conclu
sively in this game what had been
suspected previously, that its
members are inclined to suffer
from "buck fever" early in the
game. Easy shots were missed re
peatedly until Bob Kelly, who ap
parently was immune to this dis
ease, sank a long one. The score
at half time wu.lt to 8 for Sa
lem, and in the second half the
visitors came nearer holding their
own than in the first two quarters.
Height Is Utilized
Aside from Kelly's long shots,
Salem's most effective method of
scoring was the aforementioned
"Beech-tree" effect in which
Beechler camped near the free
throw line, received a high pass
and shot, with no opponent tall
enough to reach up and guard
him. '
KUever, LeFors and Vaughn all
made spectacular long shots to pile
up the visitors' 18 points, one of
the largest scores made against
Salem high on its own floor in
several years.

They set the calendar back eight

Effective in 1930 by order of

power but with "far more color,
will replace the tiny machines
that since 1922 have annually de

The decision brings victory - to
automobile manufacturers most
of whom have been crowded from

the near future" with , two-man
cars capable of equalling ' if not

NEW YORK, Jan. 9. (AP)
Tex Rickard was buried today
after funeral services in a crepe
draped Madison Square Oardenhe
leaves behind as a monument to
his vision. After brief and simple
services, which were in marked
contrast to the spectacular things
in which the sports promoter
dealt in life, his body was interred
In a cemetery where a wife and
child rest.
A crowd of 10.000 sat in awed
silence in the seats whose occu
pants in other days and nights
have alternately cheered or hurled
jeers and boos at referees and
athletes.
The hash was profound as an
organ played, a quartet sang and
two clergymen and two laymen
paid tribute to Rickard. "A man
without meanness In his heart.
Many Sports Represented
Every branch of sport was rep
resented in the throng and many
who had no connection with ath
letics Joined. The man tor whom
the last rites were being said had
aided scores of charities and rep
resentatives of these bodies were
there to add their tribute.
Available ' seats in the huge
Garden were filled when the doors
were closed at 1:30 o'clock after
thousands had passed In double
lines past the bier in a seemingly
endless procession. Many, after
passing the palm covered and
flower banked resting place of the
casket on the lower floor, went to
the seats on the Mezzanine set
aside for the public and awaited
the funeral hour 2 o'clock.
Draped In black and purple mourn
ing, the Garden awaited tne nnai
Dassare from it of its builder,
There was no scraping of chairs.
little craning of necks and vir
tually no exchange of whispers as
an organ. Installed for the funeral,
boomed forth the stately notes of
"Lead. Kindly Light."
"Friends" In Section
One thousand seats were set
aside on the main floor for
"friends." This space was dotted
with boxers friends Indeed of the
man they were honoring.
Dbscure preliminary fighters to
nen who have reached the heights
Df fame or stand on the threshold
they sat in sol men ; dignity, one
here with a discolored eye and an
other there with a cut Up. All
were thinking, perhaps, as a pro
motor who had come 1.000 miles
o attend the funeral said: "Those
boys have lost their best friend."
As the organ continued to play
l requiem, the honorary pallbear
ers, two score In number, entered.
This group Included the Madison
Sqnsre Garden Corporation direc
tors. Men who loom big In the
affairs of business, well-known
figures in boxing, i hockey, the
stage -and sports jrriters.
Baptist Pastor Gives Service
The Rev. Dr. George Cales
Moor, pastor of the Madison Ave
nue Baptist church, started the
service. j
"Taps" i sounded 1 and a band
played Chopin's Funeral March as
the great crowd stood with bowed
heads.
The persons Inside the Garden
remained until the -body was re
moved, but another great crowd
lined Fiftieth street all the way
to Fifth Avenue, as the SO auto
mobiles in the funeral procession
moved up the avenue the streets
were lined with other crowds.
; At the cemetery the casket was
opened again and members of the
Garden staff looked at their for
mer chief for the last time. Mrs
Rickard was escorted by Jack
Dempsey and Walter Fields to
$ive a final caress and the casket
was lowered into the earth.

NEW YORK, Jan. 9. (AP)
Describing as "unfair to our Amer
ican athletes" the plan of Paavo
Nurml to remain indefinitely in
this country, training for the 19S2
Olympics, Charles L. Ornstein of
Washington. D. C, a member of
the board of governors of the am
ateur athletic union, today chal
lenged the right of the Metropol
itan A. A. IT., to register the fa
mous Finnish runner without au
thorlty from the national body.
Ornstein, In a telegram to Dan
iel J. Ferris, national secretary
questioned the policy as well as
the authority of local officials In
registering Nurml under the same
conditions as an American ath
lete.
Ferris explained that under In
ternational athletic law, athletes
resident for a month or more in a
foreign country automatically
come under the jurisdiction of the
national governing body of that
country. He asserted the registra
tlon of Nurml was referred to the
Metropolitan A. A. U.. because
Nurml now resides in New York
and is subject, therefore, to local
Jurisdiction. Ferris said he con
sidered proper action had been
taken and would notify Ornstein
to this effect.

Colo., and John Junor of Portland,
Ore., both of whom played over

ter Hagen, peer of the profession
als, describes as the longest driver
in the ' realm of golf, set a new

around, stroking a 69. He took
73 in the afternoon. Junor
played consistently, traversing the
course each time in 71.
Frank Rodla of SeatUe, fol

THEN fattening sweets tempt and you

common sense method of retaining a slexv
der figure.
The finest tobaccos are skilfully blended to
make Lucky Strike. Then, 'It's Toasted."
This secret process brings out every essence
in the tobaccos and produces a flavor which
makes Lucky Strike a delightful alternative
when you crave fattening sweets there
is no interference with a natural appetite
tor healthful foods. That's why folks says
It's good to smoke Luckies."
-
At the same time toasting removes impuri
ties. That's why 20,679 physicians are en
record that Lucky Strike is less irritating
than other cigarettes. That's why prominent
athletes have testified that Luckies steady
their nerves and do not impair their physi
cal condition. No wonder that this was dis
covered long ago by many men, who pride
themselves on keeping trim and fit, who love
the "pep" that comes with health and vigor. .
A reasonable proportion of sugar in the diet
is recommended, bat the authorities are

sweets are harmful and that too many such
are eaten by the American people. So, for
