Oregon State's Beavers lashed
out in revenge last night to score
the first victory a collegiate team
has won this your over Fee's
Music Makers, powerful Portland
independent basketball loam, 40
to 25.
The Music Makers were defin
itely off form, while the Oregon
Staters Increasingly looked like
the team to beat in the coming
northern division race.
Taking a first quarter 17-7 load,
the Beavers expanded their ad
vantage to 22-11 at the halftimo.
At the third quarter mark, the
collognns wore out In front, 31-20
and in the last quarter turned on
the heat to win by 15 points.
High point honors for the game
wont to Dick Strait, Beaver for
word, who made 10 points. He
was followed hy John Monte,
guard, with nine points. Bus
Kayloy of Fee's was high pointer
for his team with eight.

Habitues of bashed-beak boule
vard could bear with Baksi and
Oma if they were feuding over
dough or dames; but they are
not. The crux of their quarrel
is pride and fresh air. They are
feuding over who shall train at
Lake, N. J. This strikes gladia
tor's gully as the height of asin
Inity, because both big oafs hate
Teddy Gleason's camp, Greenwood
to train anywhere at any time.
Oma, who prefers "gin-nasl-
ums to gymnasiums and hot
spots- to spas, was hog-tied by
manager Sullivan and spirited
away to Gleason's Camp before his
last fight with Tarni Mauriello.
Exposed to fresh air for the first
time in his turbulent career, the
unorthodox Detroiter surprised
Tami Mauriello even more by
belting the daylights out of. the
Bron?fi heavyweight.
When Baksi decided that he
might fight Oma In January, he
journeyed to Gleason's camp
and then the fun began. From
camp attendants, Oma learned
that Baksl had been making "cer
tain remarks" about him, and
that Baksi had decided to com
plete his training there. Oma,
who had given the new camp a
reputation that attracted several
other boxers, delivered the ulti
matum that Baksi would got out
or he -would. Hence the phone
calls last night to Jacobs at Miami
beach. Baksl says he will not
fight Oma; he wants Jimmy Biv-
ins of Cleveland. Oma wou't
light Baksl, unless he pays
through the nose by giving up a
portion ol his percentage. Match
maker Rogers is caught in the
middle and he is going cur-azy.
And Miami beach has become an
other Jacobs' beach for sleepless,
fuming "uncle" Mike.

The navy stepped in today . to
smash George Callanan's brief
hope of being a two-twine Rose

Given his choice of sitting on
the bench or playing at the risk
of permanently injuring his bad

Jeff Cravath he was taking the
chance.
The navy heard of it and told
Seaman 2c Callanan that his
commanding officers didn't think
it was advisable. Callanan decided
he didn't either, what with only
two weeks to go before gradua

East-West Teams
Ready for Battle
San Francisco, Dec. '30 (IP)
Heavy work for the' East and
West Shrine teams was com
pleted today and the squads will
concentrate during the next 48
hours on light drills and black
board instructions as they pre
pare ior their New xear s nay
clash before 65,000 fans at Kezar
stadlum. "
While the odds remained at 3-1
In favor of the East on the bet
ting marts, newsmen covering the
workouts of the two squads were
inclined to rate the tussle as
strictly a toss-up, with whatever
edge there was going to the West
ream Includes stars
However, the big names on the
Eastern squad, such as Les Hor
vath and Bill Hackett, the Ohio
State all-Americans, and Frank
Dancewicz and Bob Kelly of Notre
Dame seemed to influence the bet
ting gentry. The weather forecast
was "cold" which raised hopes
that the game would be played in
dry weather.
Coaching headquarters on both
sides refused to pick starting line
ups but the chances were they
would come out something like
this:
East Ends, Jack Mead, Wis
consin, and Jim Harrison, North
Carolina; tackles, Rudy Sikich,
Minnesota, and George Savitsky,
Pennsylvania; guards, Ralph Ser
pico, Illinois, and Bill Hackett,
Ohio State; center, Frank Szy
manski, Notre Dame backs. Bob
Kelly and Frank Dancewicz,
Notre Dame, Les Horvath, Ohio
State, and either Dick Flanagan,
Ohio State, or Vic Kulbitski, Min
nesota.
Players Listed
West Ends, John Westrum.
San Francisco Coast Guard, and
Clarence Howell, Texas A. &M.;
tackles, Monte Moncrief, Texas A.
& M., and Bob McClure, Nevada;
guards, Jim Kekeris, Missouri,
and Al- Ratto, Alameda Coast
Guard; center, Roger Harding,
California; backs, Bob Waterfield,
UCLA, Forrest Hall, March Field,
Bob Kennedy, Washington State,
and either Harold Fischer, Texas,
or Walter Heap, San Francisco
Coast Guard.
The East named Szymanski as
defensive captain and Horvath
and Dancewicz as offensive co-
captains.
Turner and Pease
Card Completed'
Portland,, Ore., Dec. 30 (IP)
Chief interest in Portland's New
Year's fight card is centered on
Leo Turner and Mickey Pease
who meet for the state middle
weight title In the main event
brawl, but several other bouts
bid fair to supply much action.
Semi-final opponents will be
John L. Sullivan, youthful Port
land war plant fighter, and Jerry
Brown, an experienced campaign
er from Denver. They fought re
cently to a nice six round draw
and the two light heavyweights
are out to win by a knockout.
Other bouts listed are: Dave
Johnstpn and Steve Stralick,
heavyweights in a six rounder;
Lil' Abner and Joel Boone, wel
terweights, in a four-rounder;
Johnny Pancho and Johnny Su
arez, lightweights in a four-round
opener.

Girl Wilis Title
As Biggest Liar
Of Present Year
Burlington-, Wis., Dee. 30 IP C.
C. Hulett, president of the Bur
lington Liars' club, admitted to
day that judges of the club's an
nual New Year's contest to choose
the world's champion liar had
been hoodwinked by a girl, but
said they would award ner tne
title regardless.
The winner was Wac Cant,
Hope Harrin who signed her name
as capt. Hope riarnn and con
vinced the judges she was a GI
wolf who had a recipe for air
mailing dehydrated blondes to the
boys overseas.
The lie was chosen the biggest
whopper, of 1944 and marked the
first time since 1936 a woman has
won the championship.
"We've been hoaxed," Hulett ad
mitted, "but well stick by our
decision and award the title to her
anyway."
Capt. Harrin, a former Conway,
Ark., school teacher now assigned
to the quartermaster corps of the
European tneater oi operations,
won the judges nod on a recipe for
producing a dehydrated blonde to
add a feminine touch to GI iron
rations, a project on which some
of the most active GI minds have
been concentrating hopelessly
ever since the war began.
