    Achiu-Belcastro
; The meanies. come into, their
own Tuesday night '.on the Ar
mory mat. For with the announce-
xnent by Matchmaker Don Owen
of , the completed - card for the
weekly muscle party, no less than
-five crunch; culprits ;Vniclimh

the 8:30 pm. opener. ; -
Even popular and Ju-jitsuing
" Walter "Sneezie" Achlu draws the
role of culprit In his main event
rematch with Peter Th WaUP?
er" Belcastro, V for Walter j has
vowed publicly that hell loose
every. trick he knows,. right from
ju-jitsu to bops on the kisser, at
the hairy gent who doled out : the
fierce shellacking last week. Bel
castro debuted locally by trying
to punch Achiu full of holes, and
despite failing to actually put
daylight through the Chinaman
he still succeeded in winning the
brawl after smashing and bash
ing out one of the liveliest ses-
slons seen here in weeks. Achiu,
usually a contented cuss who
"takes the bad with the good,
stormed the Owen fort for a re
match pronto, quick, nowl He got
r it and also a free hand" to use all
the tricks in the book.

of .the major leagues nines draw during a summer and probably more
than Tacoma has drawn aggregately during the latter six years
in the 'Western International . . . And if Tacomans wouldn't pay 55c

... A job well done, mates, and thanks again.
Ho ho div.: Seems they're ! on us this time we had the wrong
GUI refereeing the 'Eugene-Corvallis game last week. It wasn't
Blats, but Brother Luke, the V of Hawaii coach durationized at OSC.
. . . One or the other, he's probably, very unpopular down Eugene
way, especially so after reading accounts of the game as seen by
a Eugene reporter. As usual, the poor Axemen, who would have you
know they wouldn't hurt a defenseless fly, were blown for 19 fouls.
Corvallis was taxed with only eight Therefore, and not hidden be
tween the lines of the Eugene reporter's story, is another cry of
"robbery," which seems to emerge from our southern neighbor just
every time the Axemen play. The 19 blasts the Axemen got against
Corvallis, the 20 agin 'em with Cottage Grove and the 18 they had
coming (and got) against Salem 57 in three games added to the
fact that Coaches Hank Kuchera and Duane Mellem' closely re
semble the one and; only Wally Palmberg whenever a refs whistle
is blown,' is certain proof Messrs. Kuchera and Mellem might try
looking at a rule book for foul definitions. They'd be surprised, no
doubt " ' - . ' -
