McFarland Has Fittic
Plan and g Good One
Packy" McFarland, the pint-
sized villager who took up referee
ing beak-busting parties after he
busted up quite a few beaks him
self in his mid-western days as a
bantam and who has been con
spicuous by his absence In what's
left of the state's fistic picture
lately, doesn't intend remaining
off-scene. Packy has a plan, and
he's already discussed it with Sa
lem Boxing-Wrestling Commission
Chairman Harry Levy. Mr. Levy,
who himself likes a front seat at
most any boxing or grappling par
ty, has assured diminutive "Mac"
his plan sounds okeh.
McFarland would produce In
the village armory one topnotch
amateur punching party featuring
wnat never iails to totally wow
clout customers, high schoolers I
from in and around the town. He
says he can get the Simon Pures
all right. They would be the lads
who have been battling off these
extremely successful smokers you
hear about in Stayton, Chemawa,
Woodburn, etc. The kis are al
most entirely without finesse or
class, but more than make up fdr
it with aggressiveness and all-out
efforts to knock an opponent's
block off. Many fight fans would
rather see go at it kids such as
these than they would the pay-for-punch
boys.
Who's to get the proceeds of the
McFarland proposal? Every dime
beyond what's needed for bare ex
penses would go to the Red Cross.
Sounds good. Especially so since
the village is ripe for a good fis
tic show.

Pause-Sarazen
WASHINGTON, April 7--
Gene Sarazen, who occasionally
speaks for golf, thinks the sport
would make a mistake by "rushing
back into things" on a big scale, if
V-E day comes soon.
Before teeing off on a friendly
round with Bob Hannegan, nation
al democratic chairman, and Sen
ator Tydings (D-Md), the little
professional said: "The best thing
that the professionals, in particu
lar, can do is to concentrate on
helping out at rehabilitation; cen
ters. Doctors say that golf is won
derful for war veterans. It gets
them out into the fresh air and
takes their minds off themselves."
If the war were to end tomor
row, Sarazen feels that golf would
be wise to devote this year to "lay
ing the groundwork for 1946."
