In food -short Britain It's been a big problem satisfying the appetites of eight husky yeong men. And both crews are heavy weights this year, averaging 175 pounds a man. Pre-war training meant thick Juicy steaks. Naturally they're gone, along with many ether delicacies of the training tables. Bat Cambridge knew It had a good crew. It whipped Oxford by It lengths last year. This year the British Olympic crew will probably come from the Oxford-Cambridge level. So Cambridge bought a cow. One cow didn't mean steaks, but It did mean a steady supply of fresh, rich milk. And milk haa been the center of the Cambridge diet during winter training.

KoMh' Along By Jerry Stone Churchmen's Forum Hears Rosebraugh Scripture reading as a guide to overcoming today's problem's was urged by W. W. Rosebraugh, Sa lem Industrialist, at Thursday's luncheon of the Churchmen's forum at the YMCA. Dedication of time, thought, money and obedience are essen tial to overcome- wrong, he as serted. Rosebraugh decried the Idea that "because men both In side and out of the church gin, wo take It for granted that we can't do anything about It" Oth er groups of men, he said, citing Babylon, Greece and Rome, have found that sin brings man's de struction "now the U.

A, afaaBsas"1 '"'aaanaanttf 1eV ' A lot of the lads who dished out news reports of the Hostak Snapp scrap In Portland Tuesday night must have dosed off during the battle or else still have been la the throes of Income tax fever. That's the Impression you would get if you would go by accounts which called Snapp an easy victor. General feeling round the ring side held that Hostak, the erstwhile middle champ, was simply toying with the Klamath Falls Lad over the 1 round route. Mebbe Al didn't want to discourage tho fledgling rings ter for the es titlist threw nary a single punch through tho Initial couple of rounds and over the distance ho tossed not more than two dosen. But brothess when Hostak chose to uncork his Jab and his right cross be hit fast and he hit hard.

In Tuesday eve's semi-final Chuck displayed a poise and a punching finest which Indicates he's come a long way since lust Initial appearance in tho armory ring two years ago . . . Happy Ending Happy should be Washington's Huskies and Indeed the entire Northwest that Jack Nichols has overcome the entanglements of In eligibility and eaa bow concern his mind with the task at hand helping Art McClarney's eulnt the NCAA title. The entire rumpus waa silly in the first place and occasioned because tho NCAA rales have been only sectional In too many cases. Inconsistency reigned for if the NCAA, papas were of a mind to lower the boom oa Nichols why dldnt they do such before the last hoop campaign got under way instead of saving the blow for a moment when the Huskies were battling for the Coast crown. It's well that Jack was reinstated, and might even mean an Olympic trip for the Seattle quint . . . Never kaow when youll run onto Interesting gents and one we met ap with recently was Ted Torgesen. Ted's a former heavyweight fighter and brother of Earl Torgesen, the Boston Braves' first base man. He's new employed oa the Detroit dam project but he's still filled with memories of the fight game for Ted did a whale of a lot of anftt slinging la the heavy ranks along the coast In the early '3 as. Torgesen fought under the name of Ted KJlraln then and vividly recalls tho occasion when ho served aa sparring partner for Max Baer and aeedleas to say Ted has a lot of respect for Max's punch ing power. "1 always took most of Baer's wallop on my shoulder," says Ted. "but nonetheless I felt like Td been hit by a house. That gay could hit!" Despite the fact that Earl has hit tho majors Ted la still proudest of his youngest brad whom he tows Is going to be a real stager one of these clays . .

If confidence waa everything Bobo would go oa forever ... through the period. Houck and tall Keith Farnum were the big guns in this spurt, capturing most of the rebounds and turning them into points. It was 41-28 for Salem at the finish of the quarter, and Astoria was still finding the Salem defense willing to yield only the lengthy corner casts by Morse and Bill Korpela. The Finns spurted briefly at the start of the fourth quarter, creeping up to 33-41 as Salem seemed to go to pieces. But the rally didn't last long. Just as suddenly as they had chilled, the Viks warmed up ai.d blasted home nine points while the Finns were idle. This made it 50-33, and if there had been any doubt be fore as to which of them should win there was none now. Jn came all the reserves for both sides and they finished it off in a maze of fouls and foul shooting. Houck pitched 14 points to lead the Salems and played a brilliant all-around game before fouling out with 1:30 left Big Farnum, although fouling out late in the third quarter, was a standout also, as was Chamberlain. Morse came in with 13 markers for As toria. The Finns were whacked with 23 fouls to Salem's 18, but the Vikings hurled 21 field goals u u ror Astoria. MarshCeld's quint had to come from behind to notch their win after trailing at the half, 15-13. The coast club began hitting long shots in the third period and had a 28-17 margin at the three quarter gun. They breezed on in. Corvallis' Spartans also were forced to make up a deficit in coming out on top. The Spartans were behind the Washingtons, 20-13, but tightened their rone defense in the third stanza and moved into a 25-24 lead at the third heat intermission from which they rolled on to the vic tory. Four Washington players fouled out in the final period. Bob Edwards naced Corvallis with 19 points. In the consolation bracket New berg whipped Pendleton, 53-41, Jefferson of Portland poured it on Baker, 68-42, Springfield got by Prineville, 54-48, and Klamath Falls topped West LJnn, 43-40. The consolation winners have a chance for fifth place. fighter. Two more four-rounders will be added to the card later, and tickets go on sale at Maple's next Monday morning.

The 72-hole event over the 6,720-yard Sedgefield country club course with a par of 72, will wind up Sunday with 36 holes. In the absence of a standout favorite, the winner of the last two events here loomed as likely choices.. Big Vic Ghezzi, winner last year over the Starmount For est club course, and Sam Snead, 1946 victor at Sedgefield, were given as much chance as any of the others of the fast field in pre tournament talk. Lloyd Mangrura, who staged a brilliant last day putting exhi bition to finish third to Snead two years back and later went on to take the national open, also had his backers. With Ben Hogan and Bobby Locke the principal absentees. most of the standouts of the game were on hand to take a crack at the top prize of $2,000.
