Sport Sparks - By RON G EMM ELL That the negro race Is fast tak ing over the American boxing scene u farther emphasized in the recent national Golden Gloves tournament la Los Angeles, where six of the nine champions crowned were colored. Not only that, but better than half the field which progressed as far at the national meet consisted of ebony hued scrappers. We already have two col ored champions : The mighty Joe Louis, heavyweight titlist who takes on the Chilean, Co rtoy, tonight; and Hauimrrin' Henry Armstrong, lightweight king who at one time held three of the lower division champion ships and who has announced himself in pnrsnit of the mid dleweight crown now worn, ac cording to the NBA by Al Hos tak. Tommy Mover lost the Golden Gloves lightweight title to Tom my Campbell, a negro, and the boy he beat in the semi-finals was also colored. M oyer's loss, by the wsy. left a very bad taste in the mouth of Eddie Volk, his man ager and instrnetor at Multnomah club In Portland. Volk was un able to accompany Moyer to the LA meet, and Moyer was forced to get himself another second. That -second tossed In Moy er" towel, stopping the bout, because the Portland boy sus tained, according to Volk. n bit of a cnt over one eye. Get that picture: Stopping a bout because of a minor cut In n championship bout! We don't wonder Volk was peeved. Titular 'Sizzle? Set. Those high-flying Astoria Flnns, who hoop-it-up with the Vikings here tomorrow night, will have played no less than 26 en counters already this season when they lope onto Salem high's hoop ry. That's five more than the locals have played, and they've averaged better than two a week since the f-eason opened. . . Pulled from the mail this morning: An 18-page publicity brochure of an athletic team. No. there isn't any thing strange about that, for all ports deoks are littered with 'em. But tbe fact that it is from a high school is not only strange but slightly shocking. . . Univer sity high of Eugene put the well filled pamphlet out, and with more than a little pride, it can well bo seen without reading be tween the lines. . . The edition is dedicated to Gord Ridings, former Unl high hooper, whom you may remember as a husky star with the Oregon of the late 20s. Past: Willamette and the Portland Packers are going to play another one of those siz xlers, this time for the sizzling championship. . . The game is scheduled for neat Tuesday night, here. . . jOame number one between the 'two went into an overtime, with Willamette winning by a 5147 count, and game number two wast that scorcher the otlncr night, won by the Pacifies via a free toss in the lat two second, 5t50. Dallas Gets big Test. Whether Bobby Volk wins, loses or draws with Eugene's Jim my Pfeiffer tonight, fans will get their money's worth if they like to watch sweet boxing skill . . . Young Bobby, who also packs a bit of potency in his leather lodes, is fast becoming one of the best amateur boxers ever devel oped in Oregon. . .This was proved two weeks ago when he decisioned Oregon State's Merle Johnson here. Johnson, twice victorious over Bobby last season, is a capable, hard punching youngster who is not easily whip ped on boxing skill alone. But Volk did it, pecking away with clean left hooks and short right shots to stave off Johnson's every rush and pile up an abundance of points. . . See where someone in the east insists Hank LulsettL the famous ex-Stanford star, origin ated the running one-handed hoop shot. . . Humph! That shot had penetrated the wilds of eastern Oregon before we were old enough to lift a -basketball. . The one-hander is as natural, if not more natural, than the two-hand-er, so it wouldn't surprise us if it wasn't first used that day Mr. Nalsmlth strung up his first peach baskets. Dallas fine hoop club, which has won nine consecutive games in the tongher-than-you-might-think Willamette valley league, : gets Its supreme test tonight nt Chemawa. . . If Mer rill Hagen's Dragons can stop Backbone and mates In their own dlggins, they not only will ove the WTI y title In their pup but will be able to coast mto the district meet without further exertion. Master-Minding? Sure! Marse Joe Has 2. Sessions SAX FRAXCLSOOr Feb. S (ip)Joe McCarthy, manager of the New York Yankees, has the art of master-minding his club Into pennant and world series championships reduced to a simple matter, take tbe word of his star outfielder, Joe Di Mag gio. I During a baseball program of San Rafael fraternal organi sation last night, Di Magglo was asked If McCarthy holds meetings with the players. MSure, be holds meetings, twice av season," Di Magglo re plied, "One la on opening day and the other before the world's series. On opening day he told us Youve got the best club. I want you to win tbe pennant. You've got to.' ; Before the world's series he aid. I want you to win. Now go to it. j "He wrenches confidence and all the playena set It from him. Tbe rest of the time he issues tnstnctlousi through Conch Art . Fletcher." , - Louis by Kayo Is Prediction Champ Joe Heavy Favorite in His 9th Defense of Heavyweight Crown By SID FEDER NEW YORK, Feb. 8-(;P)-Joe Louis makes the ninth defense in his record-breaking run as world's heavyweight champion In Madison Square Garden tomorrow night, and at this writing not a creature was stirring who would predict Arturo Godoy of Chile could take the title away from him. A crowd of between 18.000 and 19,000 customers is expected to sit in on the proceedings, con tribute to a gate of over $100,000 and thereby make the fifth straight appearance for Louis in the garden with a "pot" running into six figures. The first pre liminary is slated for 5:30 p. m. (PST; and the big doings at 10 p. m. The Brown Bomber is 1 to 7 to continue bombing against tbe Chilesn fisherman where he left off against Bob Pastor in Detroit last September, and most betting is on just how long the rough, tough South American way can last before becoming the dusky destroyer's eighth straight knock out victim. Since Joe won the championship from old Jim Brad dock in '37, only Tommy Farr, the durable Welshman, has gone the 15-roand derby distance against Louis. IjOuIm. After Fifth Godoy, as long as he stays in his crouch, will be fully conscious of the evening's proceedings. Tony Oalento showed that a crouching, bobbing fellow can enjoy himself with Joe. However, the first time Tony "came to the surface" last June, the roof fell in on him. So wfth Arturo and this department picks him to stay submerged and on hand for one-third of the route, with Louis flattening him any time after the fifth. Both fighters were as confident tonight ss Babe Ruth calling his heme run shot. Louis, who has made a few predictions since Max Schmeling made him eat his words in their first fight, said his. usual brief piece about the fight ending "Jes" as soon as I tag him a solid punch." 0CE Frosh Five Wins two Tilts MONMOUTH The Frosh team of Oregon College of Education defeated Sweet Home high school's hoop squad here Tuesday Bight, 30-16. with Maulding, Ma har and Rush leading the fire works. Wednesday afternoon the Frosh quintet took Falls City high into camp to the tune of 38 21. At half time the score was 18-8.

Collids. Reports on the October con ference will be held, new officers elected and the 1940 program discussed. President Collins said announcement cards have been in the mail for 10 days, and that the response has been hearty. A banquet will follow the busi ness meeting, tentatively set for 6:30. 'Cat-Badger Mix On at Hillsboro Willamette's Bearcats will to night st Hillsboro attempt to put Northwest conference victory number three in their basketball warbag, meeting Pacific univer sity there. The local collegians took the Bndgers here, 33 to 24. but ex pect to encounter stiffer opposi tion tonight. Enscounsed In first place, wfth two conscutive wins, the Bearcats have high hopes of successfully defending the loop championship they earned last year. It is probable Happy Howard Maple will open with Howard Eb erly and Bob White at forwards, either Bruce Williams or Sum Gallaher at center and Otto Sko pil and Johnny Kolb at guards. Certain to see service, however, are big Ralph Farmer, Joe Mur ray and Cecil Quesseth.

Amateur Scrap O Volk-Pfeiffer Mix Tops Card Spl a vro-D ill ingha ra Also on Double Main Event; 7 Bouts Scheduled A double main event, featuring Multnomah club's Bobby Volk against Eugene's Jimmy Pfeiffer in one half and Multnomah club's Marvin Splawn against Eu gene's Wayne Dillingham In the other, tops tonight's seven-bout amateur slugfest at the armory. The opener is set for 8:30. Under auspices of the Salem Elks, the card will also feature, in a semifinal role, Chemawa's two-fisted welterweight, Kendall Van Pelt, in a four-round romp with either Jerry Buckley or Harry Hansen, both of Multno mah club. The Volk-Pfeiffer scrap brings together two of the top light weights In the northwest ama teur ranks. Volk Is rated Just a notch behind his stablemate. Tommy Moyer, while Pfeiffer, who was well received in two appearances here last year, in tends to prove Volk is not en titled to that rsnking. Splawn and Dillingham are light heavyweights, both of whom have this year decisioned Sa lem's Zeb Smith. Dillingham Is believed a trifle the better boxer, Splawn a trifle the harder hitter. At least four other bouts will balance out the card, the Elks club management announces, in which will be featured Salem, Chemawa, Eugene and Portland simon-pures. Western Sportsbag By LOUDON KELLY DENVER, Feb. 8-;P)-Pek-to-peak byplay: Cowboy Frankie Edgren, a bet ter than fair leather slinger be fore he retired to his south Den ver lumber yard, pinched his nos trils and crackled his lips in an nnpleasant noise. He had Just read that he was supposed to have dropped a de cision in West Palm Beach, Fla., seven years ago to Arturo Godoy, the South American, who'll see whether he's insulated against Joe Louis' high voltage tomorrow night. "I whipped that guy from here to Chile, cried the cauli flower cowboy, who claims he has newspaper clippings to back him np. "He couldn't knock the bead off a glass of boer. If Louis doesn't stop him In three heats, then Joe better go on the stage as Uncle Tom. He's made to order for Louis. Joe'U tear his head off with a right uppercut the first time Godoy comes billygoating his way inside. I straightened him up by jabbing my thumbs in his eyes. That's the only way to fight a rough baby like Godoy." Pardon us for pointing, but it looks as though the mountain country's top basketball teams could give any of them a large evening. The only game that Colorado, defending Big Seven champion, lost on its recent eastern junket was an overtime decision to Du quesne, and now the Dukes have won 12 of their 13 games, includ ing a victory over Long Island U last night. Utah twice beat Oregon State, which is running wild in the northern sector of the Pa cific Coast conference, and the best Utah can do now is share a tie for third In the Big Seven. Soon after it scored a hit with New York basketball crowds on a flying trip east, the New Mexico State team lost six players through poor grades, including Joe Jackson, the star who inher ited $50,000 recently. Even with their misfortunes. New Mexico Aggies are tied with Texas Mines for the border con ference lead. Virgil Newman majored in chemistry at the University of Washington and worked for a time as a cellulose chemist, but decided he was too "slaphappy" about skiing to stay in the labora tory. Now he's Instrnetor at the Mount Helena BU clnb in Mon tana and uses his chemistry talents to develop ski waxes for different kinds of snow. St. Joe Bags Win From Mt.

The Huskies, with only two victories in eight games, will be attempt ing to get their first two - game sweep of the season.

The Faculty-Leslie is schedul ed for 8 o'clock, preceded by the third clash between the Parrish and Leslie eighth grade teams at 7 o'clock. Leslie is given a better chance of defeating the teachers, inas much as a number of the latter who , played against Parrish will not be able to be la suit tonight. Baseball Picture To Show at YMCA The American league baseball film, brought to Salem by Biddy Bishop, business manager of the Salem Senators, will have a dou ble showing Saturday afternoon at the YMCA for all Salem young sters who care to see It. Bishop, in making the an nouncement last night, said ar rangement had been made for showing at 3 and 4 p. m.

Mapleboard Murder Committed by Viks Overwhelm Milwaukie Maroons by 69-13 Count; Eddie Salstrom Scores 17, but All Local Lads Are Stars Mapleboard murder, no less, was committed out at the Viking villa last night. Salem high turned loose a 10-man as sault that left Milwaukie's helpless Maroons the victim of the mass killing, 69 to 13. Salem's sizzling attack, which allowed, Milwaukie pos session of the ball so rarely spectators at times wondered TELE MARKS By "Bus" Herren Now that the dedication of the new lodge on the Santiam pass is over, I wonder to whom the Hoo doo bowl really belongs? . Articles in the Portland papers last Sunday informed the public that the area was the."Skyllners bowl," and some groups of closer proximity have tried pretty hard to gain control of same.' But if these various groups will only come down to earth they will find that it wiU, without much doubt, remain plain "Hoodoo bowl." stay under forest service control and rightfully belong to the public at large. "What's mine is mine and what's yours is mine," would much better be "all for one and one for all." Get smart, fel lows, and let's be content to share alike. Now that's off my chest, I can say the dedication was 100 per cent a success and everyone see ing the new lodge reported it to be even better than expected. The spectators got to see some of the best Junior skiers of the state In action, among whom were our lo cal white hopes, right in there pitching and making a place for themselves well toward the top of the list. This coming Sunday will see plenty more action in Hoodoo as the second annual junior races take place. Bruce Gor don, Bill Bowes, George Hos teller and Pebble Rocque wUl battle, as a team, for the Jess Troeh trophy. They will practice Saturday in preparation for , the event, and will have all our hopes and best wishes for top honors in both slalom and downhill races which are on Sunday's program. Indi vidual trophies, which are also at stake, will add more interest for the contestants. Two consecutive weeks of racing will put these fellows in fine shape for the Anderson downhill races to be held at Mt Hood, Sunday, February 18. For the information of all skiers planning to enter this tour nament and wishing to practice for the event: The course will be approxi mately the same as that of the Arnold Lund race. Starting op posite the top of the chair lift, it will swing in toward Lone Fir, run on down to the big rock above the lodge and from there down around the right end of said lodge over or around the ampitheatre, onto the upper end of the Alpine trail, which it will follow to the bottom of Breakleg hill, marking the finish. The only exception will bo the men's expert event, which will continue down the trail to approximately M a z a m a hill. Tom Hill, Otto Lang's succes sor as head of the Timberlin Ski school, will set the course and I am assured he will keep in mind the safety of all con testants when establishing con trol gates at the tough spots. The Oregon Winter Sports as sociation has graciously offered the cooperation of its group in the timing of the event, so that important duty will be in the hands of competent and quali fied timers. It is going to be a lot of sport and a good time for everybody concerned, so obtain your entry blanks at Anderson's sporting goods store now. Well, what do you know! Willamette won their intercol legiate meet; Jim Whalen is getting a new outfit before the races; Gordon Hull bought a rack that wdVt work; the old argument about amateur and professional skiers is on again; there is five feet of snow at Timberiine and about as much at Hoodoo; lartha White sprained her ankle said can't ski for a while, so Bob has taken np trapping; Doe Sears says that old ducks ha vent any business racing, but they can certainly cheer; and we are aU going np and practice for the races. No 'Hoop Farm' At EOCE, Coach Bob Quinn Says LA GRANDE, Feb. 8-(P)-The University of Oregon and Ore gon State cannot claim Eastern Oregon College of Education as a ' basketball farm, Coach Bob Qninn said today. "We have no players sent here from either Oregon or Oregon State and have never had any sort of agreement with either school, consequently It Is impossible for them to recaU' players from here. Quinn commented on state ments attributed to Jack FrfeL, Washington State, coach, that normal schools were training grounds for the Pacific Coast conference members.

The second quint, of Salstrom, Kernes, Mason, Harms and Coons, ran It up to 26 to 6 at the half.

Driving like demons, and hav ing almost nothing in the way of opposition, each of the locals was a star in his own right. But it was Eddie Salstrom, reserve forward, who potted the most tallies, 17, followed by Russ Satter with 13 Both were fed a flock of easy cripples.
