brought the Loggers victory in the

CONTROVERSIAL storms and
an avalanche of argument
were started early this year
by Tot Row's triumph in the rich
Santa Anita equine classic. Charges
were hurled hack and forth, and it
.was alleged that Jockey: Wayne
Wright, who rode the 'winning
horse, used rough tactics in booting
the Baroai colt home.
(Tommy Lather, rival jockey In
the race, took a poach at Wright
afterward because jof Wayne's al
leged cewboy tactics, but the com
plaints of foul riding were unavail
ing' as far as changing the result of
the race; ! .- ;ji - f .
Early this month the turf again
furnished dramatie debates over the
tmlooked for defeat of Brevity in
the famed Kentucky Derby. The
Widener boss, victim of typical
Widener bad luck at the start of
the Derby, came on only to be nosed
out of victory when this same
Wayne Wright got a taste of his
own rough riding tactics... Loud
shoots of fool by supporters of
Brevity filled the air, but, as usual,
nothing happened.!
Golf also f orniahed a controver
sial contest this spring, when Hor
ton Smith's victory in the Augusta
Masters' was laid open to question
because of an infraction of the
roles. Lawson Little, out of the
running, patted oat of tun at the
final hole, showing Smith the speed
of the rain-soaked green, and en
abling him to drop the winning putt
into the cup. -
Any mention of debatable sports
events inevitably brings up the
name of that greatest of storm cen
ters. Jack Dempsey. Almost all of
his big j rights aroused controversy
remember the Firpo mix-up, the
Sharked fool squabble and the Tmv

17 games. They will wind up
for good next Wednesday when
they play the members of the
undefeated 1030 ! team.: That
game, by the way should be a
classic. i 't

that's an impressive lineup. How
ever, with three coaches and a
physical director on the squad
there's a possibility of friction.
Yesterday iwsja an eventful
one for us f or we received a
post card from f3an Diego. Not
an ordinary post card of a ho
tel with a window marked with
an X and a note (X is my
room) . This I was different. It
was a post card! with a natural
color photograph of the San
Diego exposition nudist colony
on the front. It; was from Mar
vin Ritchie andj Don Stockwell,"
who are taking in the sights of
uiui om-ey-ay .
We were surprised that it dldnt
say "Having a fine time. Wish
you were here." Here's what the
boys said: "We iwent to the Padre-Beaver
games this afternoon
in San Diego,' The unofficial at
tendance was I announced as 11,
000 people-but comparisons with
Portland crowds revealed there
there were not more than 6,500 or
7,000. This wis Just to show how
Caiiiornians if exaggerate every
thing." We Suppose the nudist
colony picture was an exaggera
tion too, then.

Badminton III
! '
The badminton stroke Is not a
firm-arm follow through as in ten
nis but more of a wrist flick. The
main shots used are: j
The Drive should be struck
about net high, either lore or
backhand, and should be sent di
rectly at opponent or down side
lines. , i 1
Drop Shot is a delicate shot
with an easy wrist movement and
object is to drop the bird Just over
the net. .. r I.
The Lob is a high shot and is
played to the back court, j
The Flip Shot is one that Is
varied with the long volley and
is dropped close to the net with
quick flip of the wrist. T '
The Smash Shot is . known as
the "kill" and is the most power
ful shot Jn the game. j
A good deal of practice is re
quired to master these shots hot
tbis is where the fits comet. .
The Service !
-. There are a number of varia
tions in the service but one should
develop a technique of starting
all of them similarly. The corners
of receiver's coart) are best spots
to direct the following services:.
The Long Lob should be direct
ed over opponents head' and to
corner. ; ' : - ! ' 1
Short 8erriee hit Just ever net
so as to land just inside service
Una. - -j - , -
Fast Service hit about waist
high and: directed at opponents
left shoulder.;! I
The server mast stand with
both feet inihis court, and the
bird must be hit from below his
waist, on the 1 serve the bird
should be held by thumb and fore
finger of left hand, bird should
be held ontil Just before contact
with racket. It is essential to get
into positionj;; immediately after
the serve. A player should be on
his toes at all times, and in singles
it is advantageous to play the
middle of the; court. ": f ; ;

Hard
billiard people say that green is
definitely a bad color upon which
to focus the eyes constantly. Now
we have always found green very
restful to the eyes, especially that
shade j of green known as "the
long green." But then we're never
had at chance to focus our eyes
on It constantly. That's probably
why bankers always have that
tired, after-imagy look.

Tiny Cooper, Hubbard belter, to
whip when the two meet in a ten
round main event at the armory
Friday night
Frarier, who spent a year in Max
Baer's camp in California, has a
long list of wins to his credit,
plenty of them by the knockout
route. Among others he holds
knockout victories over Tiny Ab
bott of San Francisco and Big Boy
Morgan of Eureka,' both recog
nized as good heavyweight fight
ers. He also holds decisions in ten
round fights over Charley Bell and
Jimmy Burns.
Cooper, the lean and lanky fight

weight belt away from Riggi a
month ago, has been training in
Portland and is said to be in fine
condition.
Taylor Also Brings
Impressive Record
Elgin Taylor, another Seattle
light-heavy who will meet Frank
Riggi, in the six round event has
a record nearly as Impressive as
Fraiier's: Rlggi. is likely to take a
beating from Taylor, according to
Promoter CuTly.Feldtman. Feldt
man was recently, put on the car
pet by Mirion Post 661, Veterans
of Foreign Wars, for poor match
making on the last card,, on which
Rlggi was matched with a substi
tute obviously under his class.
Feldtman explained that finding
a last minute heavyweight substi
tute was not easy and that "it
was Just one of those things." He
assured the committee that Taylor
is equal if not superior to the
Brooks Italian in class and skill.
