PA(JB 'TWELVE The OREGON STATESMAN, Salem, Oregon, Thursday Morning:, December 17, 1931 ener Nose Out Vicftom Oveir Fmrsheivm Op 3Si Willamette's Shooting Good To Make up for Ragged ' : Offensive Tactics ha cam tilled with numerous deft fouls and some open ones, Willamette unlTerslty's Bearcat iron their opening basketball con test of the season at the expense of the Salem Florsheim team, su to 25; Wednesday night. The Bearcats overcame an ear ly margin held by the shoemen and from that time were In the lead all the while, thougn mat lead was slim in the closing min utes of play. Two of the Florshelm players were allowed to remain in the game after having four fouls, since substitutes were scarce. Ash by remained in until he had six fouls called on him and Drager left the game when the fifth was registered against him. Play started fast, but was slow ed down considerably by freauent fouls. Kloostra got the first score of the game with a follow-up shot under the basket, but Florsheims took the lead when Adams con verted a foul shot and then a field goal. The score was tied at five points and again at eight. At that juncture Scales and Kloostra made field goals and the town boys began to have tough luck on cripples. During the first half Coach 'Spec" Keen sub stituted freely and by. the middle of playing time had used an even dozen players. Two additional men saw action In the second can to. Team of Reserves Also Looks Good The team of reserves looked good with Moore and Benjamin boosting the score and Allen play ing a cool game on offense. Kitch en also showed up well in his first college contest as did a number of other freshmen who played. The score at half time was 19 to 11 for Willamette, but this comfortable lead "was threatened seriously in the second period when Adams and Flake began scoring. Dwlght Adams, a four year basketball letterman of Wil lamette, showed his old team mates that he still knows how to bait fouls and that he still con verts most of his attempts. The rise of Florsheim's score came after "Spec's" regulars had left the game, but the "big boys" were able to cope with the the sit uation and by being careful to not let go of the ball needlessly, re-J tained a five point lead when the final gun barked. Meanwhile they had also done some scoring. Florsheim's defense was parti cularly strong at the first of the contest and a good share of the Willamette baskets came from follow-up shots, made by tall Bearcats. Adams led individual scoring with 15 points, three fifths of the total scoring for his team. Ashby played a consistent game at guard. The Bearcats failet to work smoothly in their first game, apparently- surprised by the close checking and hindered by the many fouls.

MlMC V? lt-tfc rwuibTtKb LATE 'TEX" leiCKAiSD" REVIVING BOXlJtS S 1931, King Features Syndicate. Inc. J AMES JOY JOHNSTON, boxer, promotor and man of few words, has fallen heir to the mantle of the late Tex Rickard as fight promotor extraordinary. Johnston, recently placed at the helm of boxing at the Palace of Swat, Madison Square Garden, started his job with a bang. His first show, presenting Tony Can zoncri and Kid Chocolate in a 15 round battle for the lightweight crown, wa3 a sellout. And, in ad dition, gave New York's bpxing fans the most thrilling, sensational bout between little fellows in many years. Johnston, like perhaps the ma jority of fight fans, leans toward the heavyweights. He likes to see the big boys go to it, likes to see them fall and bounce and, inci dentally, likes to hear the click of the turnstiles as the crowd pushes in for the very same reasons. Scien Coach Beal will take Leland Miller, Max Long, Eldred Burfon, Alan Freitag, Eldon Todd, Elvin Gallagley, Alfred Yunker, How ard Shelton, Marley Sims, Keith Burton, Willie Rainbolt, Leonard Luckenbach and Bruce Quarry on the trip.

Scio's Firemen, High Hoopsters To Play Tuesday SCIO, Dec. 16 A basketball game will be played by the Scio Firemen and the Scio high school teams Tuesday, Dec. 22, at the local gym. All proceeds will go to the local charity fund. Preliminary to this game, the grade boys will attempt to defeat the high school freshmen. John Stlcha, charity committee chair man, and "Pat" Beal, high school coach, are in charge of all arrangements. Final Shoot at Shaw is Sunday The Shaw sportsmen will hold their last turkey shoot of the sea son at Shaw Sunday. These shoots have been well attended and the best patronage of the year Is ex pectea ror this usai shoot. IS IT 1 Si Of THE fii Great Brftaia Hgnts reserved. tific boxing is all right for "them that likes it," but Jimmy, liking to peer at a pier-six brawl himself, is smart enoueh to know that the average fight fan likes the knock down and drag-oat affairs and will pay to see them. And the heavy weights usually pat on that kind of a show. Hence Johnston's second show, in which he presented those two behe moths of the ring, Camera and Campolo, who battled for the Dreadnaught title. This show, while not as well attended as the Canzoneri-Chocolate affair fifteen-dollar tops being the reason was a success, fistically speaking. Primo upset the Gaucho in less than two rounds, bat it was excit ing while it lasted. And the main go was backed up by a series of heavyweight tussles that more than supplied the demand for heavy thumping and bouncing. Getting back to James J. and f CCyjJENTS Basketball as It shouldn't be played was demonstrated quite effectively in the Willamette Florsheim game Wednesday night. The trouble seemed to be that the boys were such good friends they couldn't keep from poking each other In the ribs, standing on each other's feet and the like. It's our earnest opinion that the Florsheims could have won that game if they had played ball in sieaa oi engaging in numerous little private wars. Adams and Scales had a lot of pet tricks to try on each other since it was their first game on opposing teams after working together for three seasons. But the horseplay wasn't connned to those two by any means. For the most part it was good natured. At that, the outcome Just goes to show that all else being nearly equal, the team that practices every day under def inite coaching has a big advan tage. The Bearcats were able to shoot accurately and do It while In rapid motion, a trick which comes only from much practice. The Florsheims probably tossed away their best chance of the sea son to beat Willamette, as Spec Keene's boys will Improve rapid ly from now on; Still, their next two games which, are expected to decide the city championship, will be nobody's setups. Mel Flake wasn't able -to play the full game Wednesday night, but after he went in Willamette's scoring was greany cut down. If the contest hadn't been so rough, Dan McCarthy might have been used after the Flor sheims committed their fourth fouls. Danny could have stood up under the roughness easily enough, but the crowd - might not have realised. It and per haps thought the whole busi ness Inhumane. we to been wonderinz how "Sqnee" Kitchen would look along with all those big hoys. A great high school player, but we had a few doubts. Not any more. He may Mantle 'L bis new job. He is eminently fit. ted for the post. He brings to the Garden a record of experience and knowledge of boxing ' second to none. Johnston began his career as a boxer many years ago, bat he quickly learned there waa more money and less wallops in the manaeerial end. In his time he managed several champions Fred die Welsh and the inimitable Mike McTigue coming to mind offhand and more recently he piloted that falling heavyweight of Eng land, Phil Scott, into several lucra tive purses. Then, a few years back, he embarked on a promotor 31 career, and it was his success in this field which led to the flat, tering offer of the Garden moguls to direct boxing there. Yes, it seems that the old man tle of Rickard is a perfect fit for James Jl OonrrUbt. 131. X!a( Vtttarea SyndlcaU. Ib not be a regular this season, but he's going to give somebody an awful battle for the honor, and will stir things up in lively fash lop, if he does get in there. Of the other new men, Allen looked pretty good and Bleke has the stuff but hasn't arrived yet. Benjamin is going to make some of last year's men hustle. Some of the big men aren't quite ready but they're all good pros pects. In the round robin interclass bowling series rolled by Salem high school girls, each class won a game. The sophomores defeat ed the Juniors, the Juniors beat the seniors and in Wednesday's affair the seniors won from the sophomores. Joyce Albee of the sophs was high scorer Wednesday with 128 Lotos Asplnwall leading the sen lors with 121. Scores were: Sophomores Chuen 80, Van Lydegraf 84, Young 105, Kelthe 115, Albee 128. Seniors Watson 115, Aspln wall 121, Mattson 110, Tucker 96, Coates 93.

The Stayton team outplayed Lebanon team in both offensive and defensive play. The five mas defense, on .hlch Coach H.

POWERFUL X-riAYS TO FIGHT New Treatment Is Revealed But Results .are not Fully Determined ; By HOWARD BLAKESLEB (Copyright, 1931, The Associated? Press) NEW YORK. Dee. 16 Cancer patients are basking for two-week periods In a lead-lined room at Memorial hospital here with a canary bird for a companion, un der the continuous beams of the most powerful x-rays ever given to human beings. The treatment is something new In cancer. It gives radiation "slowly," like a person taking sunshine on the beach In sum mer, permitting the x-rays to per meate the entire body. 'Some patients have been bene fitted." said the announcement of - this experiment, which was made public tonight at the New York Electrical society by Dr. G. Fail la, of the Memorial hospital. But he warned also that It Is too soon to say "whether distinctly better clinical results will be obtained." The sun" for this new treat ment is a 900,000 volt x-ray tube. Its "rays" in this case are 700, 000 volts, Almost equivalent, said Dr. Failla, to those of one pound of radium, or 122,000,000 worth. The tube was made by Dr. W. D. Cool id ge of tha. General, Electric company, and the voltages used compare with 550,000 recently tried on cancer at California in stitute of technology. Canary Sent With First of Patients Cancer patients, it was revealed tonight, have been living In this room since- last May. The apart ment Is 20 feet long, 16 feet wide and 10 feet higi. Its walls one- eigntn men or ieaa. With the first patient a can ary bird was placed In the room. Patients- changed, but the little bird did not. He was their mon itor, theif danger signal. This use of a bird for monitoring x-rays is something new. Daily the bird was observed for possible bad ef fects. Two weeks ago the canary's time was up, his work ended, the radiation at last having affected him. A new canary replaced him. Not all the rays from the great tube enter this room. First they must pass through a copper plate, to filter out all except deeply pen- etrating, slowly acting rays. The idea this slow permeation might be useful was credited by Dr. Failla to Dr. A. C. Hueblein oi Hartford, Conn., x-rays are known to kill some types of cancers more quickly than they injure the nor mal flesh and blood. The problem was to hit thess types in the body with x-rayi without at the same time harm ing the healthy flesh enclosing them. Protective Means Is Being Studied The following .analogy will bring out the method of attack," said Dr. Failla. "Everyone knows that sunlight promotes healing. But overexposure at the beach in summer results in painful sun burns, marked systemic effects and sometimes serious illness. If one is careful and exposes him self to the sun gradually he can nnaliy stay at the beach all day witnout Injury. In this case the tanned skin protects the under lying structures from the sua. in case of exposure to x-rays the protective mechanism Is en tirely different, and is not well known. But it is certain that the human body can tolerate appreci able amounts of radiation, admin istered at a very slow rate." "Since the greatest difficulty is encountered," he said, "In the treatment of tumors (cancers) wVIa1 , . . - 1 wweij aissemmaiea throughout the body, it was de- elded to treat patients of this type irradiating the whole bodr contlnnously for a week or Our experience with this new method Is too limited to permit of any definite conclusions. Some patients have been benefitted. On the whole the results have been encouraging and we expect to continue the experiment until we determine the advantages and limitations of the method."
