The New OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, Friday Morning, May 3, 1929 K X Red Fumnuny Stiaffff Brings Him Draw Decision Heire PAGE EIGHT Mulcts f U FLASHY YOUTH Speedy Work and Clown Tac tics Combine to Put Lad Across A ludicrous, pose attitude of prayer, perhaps, or an Imitation ot Babe Ruth about to swat a homer then bang! That was Red Millet, Portland's fighting clown. In action against "Spud" Murphy. Millet didn't appear to be fight ing, but every now and then his long arms crashed through the un. wary Irishman's guard and those short Jabs from queer angles hurt. ' A clown Millet undoubtedly is. but he doesn't take many chances. His laughable poses are all based on sound ring tactics, and he Is fast as lightning. That and his long arms 'enable him to clown safely. Murphy couldn't reach Millet at all except around the ears in the Infighting. A few times Murphy tried fun ny antics of his own, but every time his eyes wandered, MMIet was in like a flash. The come dian's Rtunts Included crouching to the floor, changing feet sudden ly, faking fatigue, a football charge, a "bear hug" dance In the clinches, and a lot of others. The referee- called the fight a draw. Jack Kentworth and Pat Dun dee didn't settle their grudge eith er, for they fought six rounds without apparent advantage for either inany of them. They bat tled viciously, but the only break rame in the fifth, when Kentworth lifted a hard;Be-to Dundee's sto mach and Pat "went down for the count of nine, meanwhile begging the referee to call a doctor. In spite of his claim of a foul, he got up and fought like a madman the rest of the round. Eddie Edelman of Portland won a decision over Russ Green, keep, ing the local lad doubled up most of the fight. Jack Nelson won on a foul from Jack Watenberger. who forgot himself and hit while coming out of a clinch. Nelson took the place of Doc Snell, who was overweight. Floyd Ambrose won over Harry Savage of Albany. The crowd was one of the biggest in recent weeks. KTAN DINU OF THE CLUBS COAST X2JLOTTB W L Pet.

Louis Anderson Expects to Organize More Clubs in Near Future Here Boys ranging from aft If downward, swarmed O linger field Thursday afternoon to Indicate their desire to participate In American Legion Junior league baseball, and as a result Louis Anderson, who Is In charge of the program locally, lined up tour teams and had a number of boys left over, so it is probable that more teams will be organized la ter. The first games will be played Monday afternoon, when each of the four teams will play three in nings. The Salem champions will be picked by May 20, and after that a district and then a state championship elimination will be held. If Salem can put a really classy team In the field, which appears entirely possible judging from the talent that appeared, some local boys may get some long trips with al expenses paid, for after the state championship is decided, sec tional championships between state winners remain to be settled, and then there will be contests between the winners in the va rious sections of the United States, after which the national championship is to be decided.
