The good right hand of Ter
rible Tony Kahut may be of a
great deal more use to' him in
his championship chase with
Mitah Tunah' tonight than it
was against Powder Kid Proc
tor a month or so back. Es
pecially is this true now that the
Woodburn belter has shortened his
power punch and isn't telegraph
ing it in the too evident "here-it-comes"
manner he formerly
employed.
In the main, however, the same
premise holds in his battle with
Turner that proved so true
against Proctor: Tony can't af
ford to let Leo get in close to him.
The dusky one is pure dynamite
at inside punching, elbows or no
elbows.
Which reminds yours sincere
ly: How come Hammerin' Hen
ry Armstronr was able to "win
three championships with the
stuff no one around here has
yet allowed Turner to use?
As for the winner, how can you
name other than Kahut? While
Turner has the equipment to
emerge the victor, the fact re
mains that Kahut has been stead
ily improving, has been fighting a
better fight each time out and is
always in tophole condition, while
Turner hasn't fought a decent
fight since he stopped Barlund
and most certainly wasn't in
shape when he fought Proctor.

Casaba Celebration
' Casabas hardly had Quit spin

fore plans for observance of
' Basketball's Golden Jubilee" cel
ebration during the 1941-42 sea
son began to take form. A group
of prominent citizens in Spring
field, Mass., where Dr. James A.
Naismith nailed up his peach bas
kets and started the game, have
formed a central committee that
is to direct the celebration.
It is expected the AAU, the
national association of college'
basketball coaches, the NCAA,
the YMCA and many other
organizations Mill take part in
commemoration of basketball's
50th year.
South American countries,
where the game today is the most I
popular of all sports, as well as i
here in the US, Canada and Mex- i
ico, are to share in recognition of j
the sport Dr. Naismith originated ;
in lay i at tne international
Young Men's Christian Associa
tion Training school at Spring
field. o
Failing Flippers
Our Senators currently have
two arms, in camp that are not
what they should be. The worst
offender of the two is the left
upper branch of Gene Fenter,
who won six and lost 10 as a
rookie last year despite some
glaring lack of support. Gene, now
known as the squad's "fatty,"
tried to win 20 games the first
day out, and developed a shoulder
strain that may or may not prove
to be the dread bursitis.
The lesser offender is the
right uper limb of Third Base-
nun Lee Shinn, who was sorely
troubled by it throughout his
five-week stand last season.
Lee's 1940 ailment stemmed
from a point midway between
his shoulders. During the win
ter, he underwent some dental
excavation that was believed
responsible for the soreness, but
Lee still throws the baseball
like a shotput.
Shinn, never any gazelle, needs
plenty of arm to make up for his
natural lack of speed, and a sore
flipper in his base is therefore
serious business. Should the arm
foil to improve with warmer wea
ther and treatment, the Solons
may be deprived of a third base
man who can bust the baseball as
well as dig it out of the dirt.

From Billy Sherrard, the In
dependence oldtimer: "That
Turner-Kahut battle should be
a good one, but if Tony slips

Tony. Keep your left straight,

ue&tion: Can Turner
Retake
Answer Comes Tonight, When
Kahut Defends It at Armory
By RON GEMMELL
Statesman Sports Editor
Whether the -Oregon middleweight boxing crown changes
noggins for the fourth time in its history when Champion Tony
Kahut tonight defends it against Leo "The Lion" Turner, one
of two ex-champions, is believed by the boys along Salem's bash
boulevard to depend upoh one of two major items. They are:
1. The ability of Turner to make the required weight, 160
pounds, without weakening himself to the point he won't be able
to stand the pace Kahut will probably set for the full 10 rounds.

the finalists who will tee off Sun
day over the .36-hole titular route.
Utter has the advantage of, more
tournament experience.
