14 The Statesman. Salem. Oregon,
Just what the name Kahut means to an armory fistic excursion
was proved beyond doubt last week when less than $200 hit the till
for the VFW-Salkeld Kahut-less party. The Ferry Street Garden
shows for the past "few months - -
have been drawing well when . t .
young Eddie Kahut was listed
thereon. What happens when he's
not to fight was exhibited sor
rowfully last week. Worst part ol
it is, Eddie probably won't pull on
another glove for at least two
more months. He's up to his teen
aged ears in farm work, laboring
with grain, and says he won't be
through with it for another eight
or ten weeks, ... When Eddie
does return to the ring his official
manager is apt to be Big Brother
Joe! himself. When asked by Sal
keld here the other night just
what his managerial status was
going to be, Eddie "guessed" the
boss would be Brother Joe.
Speaking of fighters, the young
last WdnpsriavS
card, Jminy Byrnes, is the son RUFFY SILVERSTEIN
of Jim Sr who will be recalled by oldtimers as the southpaw heavy
who battled sbme of the big boys of his day, including Dempsey,
Striblirig and Lomski. He fought Dempsey in. a Eugene exhibition in
1932 and gave the former champ a real go of it. Salkeld figures the
current Byrnes, a strapping 212-pounder, as a prospect. Come to
think of it, if he can flatten his ring foes as easily as he did Lew
Ahgel here the other night hell be world champ one day. Angel
made like a yo-yo as he faded before the mere wind of Byrnes
swings. J, . "When did Johnny Tierney win his last game for the
Senators?" asks a reader who says he has a bet that the once wm
i n,,,.H nr iha Rninn Viill mrns "hasn't won one in two months.
Last victory for Tierney was posted

If He Bites or Shoots He Has Good Reason
Should one Jack Friel suddenly make the news by bitinr
himself or running down s baseball scout or two, be not sur
prised. He ha good reason to undertake either chore. It was
bad enough for the Washington State cage mentor to lose via
graduation the big wheel of his 1950 northern division champs
Eddie Gayda. Since then he's been shorn of two of his prise
sopfcs of last season, Ted Tappe and Gene Conley, who now cast
their athletic lot in professional baseball. It was upon these two

Making it doubly bad for the
of last season was a poor one with
talpnf on it. What with Conley and
a handful of undergrads on Friel's second platoon, Cougar faithful
figured all might be okeh even ,with Gayda gone, so didn't worry over
the punity of the freshman team: But now! It's rather easy to see just
who they'll be picking to bring up the rear in the upcoming derby
that is, unless a sudden rash of junior college transfers descends upon
the Pullman campus. - . .

Kochl Couldn't Catch Up
Sutton Cops 'RotT Win
in Hbllv-ioivl Program
Len (Li'l Abner) Sutton and his yellow No. 27 car last night
put the climax to the Hollywood Bowl roadster racing program be
fore almost 3000 fans by copping the 35-lap main event. He had to
fight off Ernie Koch in the No. 1 car for the last 15 laps of the
romp, but did it methodically as
well as convincingly. The win was
Sutton's second straight for the
bowl in hot rod meets.
The mainer was loaded with
spin-outs, but no serious crack
ups. One of the spins cost Howie
Osborne a possible second place as
he had the place position in com
fortable fashion when his No. 44
buggy took the east turn too fast
and went kaput. Koch then moved
up to do the chasing behind Sut
ton. j
Sutton was only a car length
ahead of Koch at the finish and
the two-car race was that close or
the last five laps. v
Osborne made - a spectacular re
covery from his spin (he lost a
full lap because of it) and finished
third. Wild Bill Hyde was fourth.
Thetime was 11:13.60.
Max Humra was a major threat
in the race also, but a spinout
ruined him early. Fred Gilbert and
Don Crockett also suffered the
costly spinouts. Humm had been
having bearing trouble all evening
with the 73 car he was herding.
but fast work in the pits had it
ready for the main event
Hyde put. an end to the winning
ways of Koch in the trophy dash,
taking the three-lap event in 53.73
seconds. Sutton was second and
