Zivic Holds McCoy to Draw As Four BlIITlS Given Both Welterweights Injured t . . , . m iui Miry vQuyiin NEW YORK, Dec. 13 (UPJ Ac tivity in the welterweight division was halted today until physicians report on the condition of the two badly battered eyes suffered by ;Fritzie Zivic of Pittsburgh and ! Young Kid McCoy of Detroit in -their 10-round draw at Madison ' Square Garden last night. Both of the 147-pounders came out of their furious battle with i orbs badly puffed and possibly cut. Zivic, whose eye was hurt as early as the fifth round, was believed more severely injured. McCoy's eye didn't begin to swell until near the end of the bout. KjJ Promoter Mike Jacobs had an nounced that the winner ol the match would meet Ray (Sugar) Robinson, undefeated Harlem ne erom. but the draw upset his plans 'and a rematch may be scheduled. bThe 9571 customers who paid $22,- ,678 to see Jacobs' first wartime Jbout probably would return for a X tipcat. No Knockdowns - ' Although there were no knock' 'downs and neither boy was stag gered, the bout was a fast and furious one. McCoy, whose real name is Adam Planga, solved Ziv ic's peculiar style late in the . match .and earned his draw with a spectacular last round rally during which he rocked Zivic all 'around the ring. The fight was rough, replete .with low blows, thumbing, el bowing and liberal use of shoul 'ders but Referee Arthur Donovan 'only once called a halt to the pro ceedings he penalized Zivic in ,the fourth round for hitting below the belt. Judges Say Draw The United Press score card gave McCoy the edge at five, four and one, but Donovan and both judges called it a draw one at four, four and two and others at five, five. Zivic won his rounds with his usual clever display of infighting while the 23-year-old McCoy, who has risen swiftly since he left the Ford Motor company three years ago, relied on a sharp left and a chopping right cross. Pianga, or McCoy, hit the hardest punches but Zivic hit oftener.

(U.R) Brooklyn said goodbye to four of the beloved Bums today but the brief ceremony was obscured by general rejoicing that Arky Vaugh- an, for 10 years one of the most potent batters in the National lea gue, would play for the Dodgers in 1942, Vaughan was procured yester day in one of the biggest deals of the annual winter trading season and one which removed two of General Manager Larry MacPhail's nutating problems Pitcher Luke (Home Run Ball) Hamlin and Catcher Babe (The Blimp) Phelps from the Dodger roster. Hamlin, Phelps, Reserve Intieid- er Pete Coscarart and Outfielder Jimmy Wasdell were traded to the Pittsburgh Pirates for the stocky Buc infielder. Although the cost appears high, it actually wasn't. Four Are So-So That's because Phelps had play ed only 16 games when he quit the Dodgers on a western trip last year; Hamlin fell far from the form which won him 20 games two years ago; and Coscarart was used mainly as a runner in a few con tests, wasden was the most im portant Dodger in the trade. He hit .299 in 94 games and was an excellent performer in the field, The deal, more or less expected, came as a slight surprise because the National league meeting in Chicago ended officially Thursday. MacPhail had announced he was after two men Vaughan and John ny Mize oi St. Louis, who was stolen away by the New York Giants. Plugs Gap Vaughan will plug at least one and maybe two gaps in the Brook lyn infield. He is 30, married and not likely to be called for military service. He will take over the shortstop position if Pee Wee Reese, now classed 1-A, is inducted into the army. Until then, however, MacPhail and Manager Leo Durocher are expected to oust Cookie Lavagetto at third base. Vaughan will play there as long as Reese remains with the team and his batting prowess is certain to add punch to the Dodger attack. Vaughan has played in the Pitts burgh infield for 10 years and while no Zorina in the field, he has compiled a life-time batting average of .320. His best average was in 1935 when he won the Na tional league championship at .385 and was selected as the league's most valuable player. Last year he played in only 106 games and hit .316. He hit two home runs against the American league in the All-star game. FIELD HOCKEY SITE WELLESLEY, Mass.

Wally Mold and Ace Flath won the game for the Rubes, Mold notching 13 points and I'lath 15, for game's high scormg honors. The game was closely-fought all the way, but the Hillbillies just could not find a defense capable of throttling the Rube two-man scoring attack. The Rubes led all the way, taking a 7-5 lead at the first quarter, holding it at 14- 12 at halftime, and stretching it a bit to 21-18 at the close of the third quarter. The fourth period saw both Mold and Plath in top form, and the game was iced for the Rubes. Tom my Staley and Ed Dowdy sparked the Hillbillies, with 7 and 8 points respectively.

The war emergency blacked out their Pacific Coast service men's football championship game, which had been scheduled for the Uni versity of Washington stadium to day. It had been scheduled as a colorful "khaki bowl" carnival, with the stands to be packed with uniforms. Civic leaders had been ballyhooing the battle for days. But late yesterday, a cancella tion order came from Lieut. Gen. John L. DeWitt of San Francisco, commander of the West Coast military forces. . Appeals from Gov. Arthur B. Langlie and Mayor Earl Millikan of Seattle were to no avail. Lieut Ray (Butch) Morse, former Ore gon gridiron star, headed his Moffett squad back toward its California base.

For your rods, reels, lines and hooks, visit LIGHTNING'S 1151 Willamette rhonc 131S either team well, almost none, Coach Lon Stiner of OSC pro- Dosed to Coach Wallace Wade of Duke, "I won't scout if you won't." Said Coach Wade, "Okay, but it can't be a complete no-scouting agreement. I already have obtain ed information about your team, but agree to eliminate moving pictures." So the agreement, as finally reached and stated by Stiner: Yours received concerning scouting. Agree whole-heartedly to obtain information from nor mal sources and not use moving pictures other than newsreels, of which none has been shown yet. Sorry I did not think of complete non-scouting agreement earlier. Believe it would have been fun." This, to the initiate, means that there will be scouting of sorts. It does mean, however, that there will be no periscope sniping of pictures, no spying on secret practices and such things. Which, both coaches agree, should put the boys on their met tle at Pasadena to watch for novel plays they haven't mapped in ad vance. War Does Not Affect Rose Bowl Skirmish CORVALLIS, Ore., Dec. 13 (U.R) Plans for the Oregon State- JJuke Hose Bowl football game are progressing in a normal way despite the Pacific war, Percy Lo cey, OSC athletic directors, wired his office from Pasadena today. Locey said ticket sales were good and that mail orders of tickets yesterday were the heavi est since he arrived at the Rose Bowl headquarters. A big Oregon State rooting sec tion was assured yesterday when student ticket sales on the cam- 100 band members and the rally pus passed the 1,000 mark. About committee were also scheduled to attend the game. York open the college basketball season in Madison Square Garden tonight. It is the eighth season for the collegiate twin bills there. Oregon, which has never yet been successful on its trips to New York, tangles again with Long Island, already winner of eight straight this season. L. I. U. has built its squad around a horde of sophomores. The far western squad lost to both Wayne university of Detroit and Canisius on the way here. Oklahoma A&M, unbeaten In Gotham, collides with City Col lege, probably the best physically equipped team in the metropolitan area and winner of its first two starts.
