Landsdowne summarily proved
that statement last night at the
armory when he capped a daz

himself In a" knot, wriggling out
of a supposedly unbreakable In

10:50.
Despite a blinding cut at the
s'de of his left eye. sustained

headed 'duke from Barring'on
tore into the third round, got
tirst a reverse, and then a

M'CARTHY SIGNED,
2-'
"NEW YORK, July 16.-;P)-The
answer to any and all. conjecture
about the future leadership of the
front-running New York Yankees,
including talk of a comeback by
Babe Ruth at the old stand, was
furnished today by the re-engagement
of Joe McCarthy as manag
er. McCarthy, who took charge of
the Yankees in 1931 after clos
ing a stormy session with the Chi
cago Cubs, signed a two-year ex
tension of his contracts covering
1936 and 1937. following a con
ference with Colonel Jacob Rup
per before today's game. It was
understood Joe will continue un
der the same salary, $35,000 an
nually.
RuDDert's surprise action was
accepted as a complete vote of
confidence in the McCarthy re
gime.

He stayed In the punishing grip
for six minutes, and then, adroit
ly maneuvering out, grabbed a
full nelson, Tushed Roy against
the ropes, and pinned him with a
flip on the rebound. -
:y Can Wrestle Xow
Landsdowne. self-styled noble
man, was expected by most of
the fans to put on the usual
showmanship, and to stay out of
punishing holds by acrobatics.
ThA hnv. who holds tha welter
weight title, has learned to wres
tle In the past two years, and he
and Rob Roy put up a clean con
tiBt. but a battle which never
theless kept fans on their feet.
He was all over Roy in the
first round,- never relinquishing a
hold unless it was to take anoth
er. He full-nelsoned Rob to the
ropes, pushed, fell behind him,
and as the lad from Michigan
fell over him, slapped on a re
verse Boston crab for the first
fall. He lost the second in a death
lock, with blood from his injured
eye impairing his sight.
Abdul Khan of Afghanistan
the ring was full of foreigners
and Pug Ryan of Los Angeles
went to a draw, neither gaining
a fall in the last round. Khan
displayed little in the field of
wrestling ability, and did nothing
but holler "Allah" and jam fin
gers in Ryan's eyes.
Bulldog Jackson of Portland
took two out of three over Larry
Tilman of Vancouver, Wash. His
now favorite hold took both falls,
and is based on the practice of
getting a hammerlock, laying the
arm on the canvas, and stamping
on It.

Oregonian from Portland sup
porters. George Self, who has
taken on himself the job of
rounding up votes for Grannis
yesterday mailed some 750
votes.
All the petitions circulated here
have been for Grannis alone but
for the next four days they will
bear also the names of Butch
Morse of Oregon for end and Hal

terback. All three have a fighting

whether It were better to go
without a vest and be ventil

the expense would be an item to

Softball players who may be
Injured in , gipies of the Salem
Softball association will be pro
vided medical or surgical care by
the league through a recent ac
tion of the executive committee
in setting up an emergency fund.
An effort was made to secure
insurance on the players and sev
eral local insurance men contact
ed but none brought forth a feas
ible plan. Consequently the league
took $100 from its general fund
as a foundation and adds 10
per cent of the gate receipts of
every game to the emergency
fund.
Several players have already
been injured this season nd
have received benefit of the fund.
The league also maintains a com
plete first aid kit at the field.
This has been used several times
already but league officials Kiie
it will not be called into use
often.
