( Two Big -Boers' Is Fitting Title For This Tale; But Max hi Champ At Telling 'em Too By MARIAN LOWRY As versatile with his public as with his right, ready answers for 10 questions at once, "Champeen" Max Baer won Eugene completely In his visit here, and proved himself a thoroughly charming fellow away from tho ring, with personality enough for two ordinary boxers, champion or otherwise. He has what It takes to be a "popular champ." He made a special visit to the Register-Guard offlco Friday. "Old Camera really hurt his ankle in his fight with you?" "Well, van know, there are a lot ot follows, when you hit them on the chin, flm! something wrong with their lega," came the quick reply. "Do you like fighting or the movies best?" A fleeting, speculative look was followed by this: "There are many of them who can he actors, but only ons who can be a champion. And while I am champion, I'm going to make all I can. I am not going to hi) one of the guys who come to where they have to lump in the ring and challenge anyone for twenty dollars!" i ' - "Do yon like to win your fights with knockouts? "You bet, that's the only way you are sure of your decision." "Hnw much did you make the past year?" "Oh, something like $100,000. . . .. But I was on the small end. From now on, it's 33 1-3 per cent!" Smartly attired in flannels and a mildly plaid tan coat, a white flannel sport shirt with sipper, Baer attained the jaunty appearance to go with his jaunty manner. Standing in the background, looking over the cluster of a dozen around the champion waa "Little" brother Buddy. Bat wnteb out for "Uttle Brother" in future headlines, he's only a bend taller than big brother and he's only 18. And traveling with brother Isn't just because be has to have a guard ian. Baer remarked Thursday even ing that the title was going to stay In the Baer family for some tlmel "What's your next picture?" "It's railed 'Kids On the Cuff.' That's the name now, anyway," Baer reuUeil, and entertained his audience with highlights of his acting in the plrture. "Tell us something about It." "Oh, I don't know much except that 30 CCC Men Sent To F ight Class "C" Five On Big Creek A class C" fire was reported in the Big Crek section of the Siuslaw national forest In the northwestern part of La he county Thursday after noon and a, crew of 30 CCC men was sent out fpom the Mapleton camp to fight it, aKording to word sent to It. S. Shelley, supervisor of the forest. Class "C" firei cover an area of ten acres or mora but it was not learned how much territory over that acreage nfis one had spread. No fur ther wod had been received by the supervisor up to noon Friday. The fitre is burning in new growth timber and is not near any old growth, the supervisor learned. The ferns and other undergrowth in the coast sec tion are now extremely dry and fire haznrds are now as great or greater than nn:r previous time this season, it was sinned.
