The OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, Thursday Morning, December 19, 1920 Wist era Lightweight Wrestlin g Title Brought to REFEREE PUT FASTVASLEEP Anderson Kayoes Official by Delivering Unexpected Kick in Fray Dec Anderson, Salem, today is western lightweight wrestling champion as a result of his sen sational Tictory oTer Harry Kuehne, Newberg, in a wrestling bout staged at the Salem armoy Wednesday night. The incidents leading up to the final fall which was obtained by ArderEon are thought to be with out precedent in the history of the mat sport. Anderson knocked the referee unconscious when be accidentally ticked him in the mouth during a mlxup with Kuehne and while the re ferae was lying on the floor, both wrestlers frantically attempted to get a fall. The champion from Newherg was gradually pinning the shoulders of Anderson to the mat when be noticed that the ref eree was lying unconscious. For a flioment he relaxed. Anderson quickly took advantage of this relaxation and tossed his oppon ent orer his head and pinned him 'with a body-pin. At this juncture the referee reeled groggily to his feet and became conscious enough to pat Anderson on the shoulders. giving him the final fall and the 'C U R, T S OMMEM" BYCUIl X -I S S Hurray! We picked a local man and for once, he won. Guessing average .639; 46 right and 26 wrong. Seems like the more wrest line cards we have, the rougher they get. Now they've taken to knocking out the referee. It sounds too good to be true, but anybody who saw It happen and saw the referee's Jaw after ward, knows it Just happened. Personally, we were watching the referee and didn't see Ander son get the hold on Kuehne that won the match .and the Newbers man's precious belt. Aside from the question as to whether Kuehne slipped a lit tie outside the rules with his rough stuff occasionally we thought his comedy Wednesday night was a bit cheap and gross ly overdone. How any of the fans got excited over his mon keysliine exits from the ring. Is beyond us. A lot of fans certainly missed a lot of excitement. The little lada who put on the preliminary know their stuff, too. Just like any pair of brothers, they aren't a bit afraid of hurting each other. The referee. Jack Brentano, Is reported to be quite a wrest ler himself, even if be couldn't Anderson's hoofs flying in his direction. He's the Canadian middleweight champion, and claims he's been trying for a year to get a match with the world champion in that weight, Stanislaus Zbyszko. In discussing the University of Oregon's chances of getting some recognition in the Coast confer ence yesterday, we neglected to mention one possibility. With no "big three" opponents next year, Oregon may go through the sea son without a conference defeat, and if the rest of them wind up as they did this year, Oregon will have the championship all sewed up.

Inasmuch as Ander son had won the first fall and Kuehne the second, that final third round was the decisive af fair. Anderson's time for the last fall was seven minutes. Wednesday night's match was the second In which Kuehne and Anderson have participated in the local arena. Anderson won two falls in the first encounter but did not get the championship belt which was held by Kuehne, because of unmatched weights. The Salem youth took off five pounds to make ,the 142 pound limit and it was plain that he had been weakened ' by the sweating process. Only during the first fall did he display his usual flashy wrestling style. For the opening fall. Anderson scored a victory with his favorite hold the leg-split. He worked this hold at every opportunity during the 21 minutes and 20 seconds vpf the first period and held the advantage over the cham p'on throughout the bout. But Kuehne had his inning in the second bout. There was no doubt of that in the minds of the fans who sat through 17 minutes and 17 seconds of a demonstra tion of headlocks. Kuehne dazed Anderson with a couple of rabbit punches, but stopped these tac tics when warned by the referee. The damage was done, however, and a series of punishing chiro practic headlocks used by Kuehne prooved too much for his youthful opponent. Then came that uproarious third bout. Both grappiers were primed for action and Anderson began to get his leg-split hold. Kuehne jumped over the ropes several times to evade Anderson's attempts to get his legs. The action was so fast and the com petition bo hot that the referee came in for considerable rough treatment before he was finally knocked out. Shortly before his K. O. he was tripped by Kuehne and even slapped by the furious Kuehne who disagreed with a rul ing made by the referee. A peppy group of fans wit nessed the match and the attend ance showed a marked growth over the two previous cardR held here. Henry Jones of Provo, Utah, challenged the winner of the bout. Jones held the belt Just won by Anderson for a per iod of IS years. He is anxious o regain the title and should the affair be staged here, another good match is expected to resa.lt. An interesting bout between Raymond Davis, 15. and El don Davis, 13, brothers from Browns ville, featured the preliminary event. The scrappy youngsters displayed unusual knowledge of the mat sport and gave a fine ex hibition. Their bout was a draw. The referee who was treated so unceremoniously during the final bout of the Anderson-Kuehne tus sle was Jack Brentano, Canadian welterweight wrestling champion. game, and they were played that way because the Monmouth team, scheduled for a full game, was late in arriving.

By RUSSELL J. NEWLAND Associated Press Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 18 (AP) Smoke of the annual bat tle of words; football schedules, the rules cleared up today as graduate managers and faculty athletic representatives of the Pa cific coast conference finished their three-day J929 confab and departed for home campuses. Election of officers by both bo- dies, selection of places for the 1930 spring and fall meetings and settlement of two questions, of some Import were worked in today's brief sessions. Southern Californian licked for Presidency Gwlnn Wilson of Southern California" was elected president of the graduate manager's asso ciation while Earl Campbell of Washington was named secretary. They succeed Carl Lodell of Ore gon State and Steve Cunningham of the University of California at Los Angeles, respectively. The faculty representatives made no change in their adminis trative offices, returning W. B. Owens (Stanford) as president and H. C. Willett (Southern Cali fornia) as secretary. Graduate managers turned down a proposal to open the foot ball practice season, September 10 instead of September 15. The latter opening date has been in effect for many years. O. 8. C. Ruled Against In Jerseys Issue Another problem, pertaining to colors of Jersies, was decided In Stanford's favor. Both Stan ford and Oregon State have adopted white jersies fof foot ball games. It was brought out that when these teams met, con fusion necessarily would result with 22 players all garbed in the same color. In such cases it was decided the home team would hare the preference .but also that each college would have priority rights to its own colors. It gave Stanford the "break" as the for mer's college are cardinal and white while Oregon State's are orange and black.
