Bend Beats Burns
In Close
Score Is 35 to 31
Burns, Jan. 20 (Special) Lulled
Jnto lethargy by two easy games
In Lakevlew, Bend's potent Bears,
runners up for the championship
of all Oregon last season, under
estimated the Burns Bulldogs here
last night, but managed to squeeze
through with a 35 to 31 win in the
final minutes of play, In a thrill
filled court battle. Against . the
powerful Bears, the Burns-quintet,
paced by Husman, Delaney
and Mundy, played one of its
finest games in recent. years. ;
The struggle was a crowd pleas
er, especially in the closing min
utes of play, and a near capacity
house is expected for the second
game of the series here tonight.
The confident Bears took, an
early lead over the Bulldogs, and
at the end of the first quarter
were out ahead 13 to 6. But by
. halftime.the Bulldogs had defi
nitely served notice that the con
test was far from over. At the
halfway mark, the Bulldogs
trailed by a mere four points, 19
to IS. i- . j
Burns Takes Lead '
The inter county hoop battle
raced into full fury Hear the end
of the third quarter, with the Bull
dogs taking a 24 to 22 lead. But
by the end of the quarter the
Bears were out in the lead again,
25 to 24. The final quarter was a
fierce affair, but the Bears grim
ly held to their small lead, trad
ing shot for shot and'adding a few
extra ones for good measure to
win.35to31. . ' i '
' Ball handling of the Bulldogs
. was brilliant, their shooting was
accurate and their guarding was
good. The Bears, however, were a
V bit ponderous in setting up their
defense patterns and their shoot
ing was off: It was Bob James,
whose total points for the evening
reached 11, who saved the Bears
.from probable defeat. Bend con
verted seven out of 12 free tosses.
'Burns made five out of 11.
'- The Bears came here yesterday
over the Yellowstone cutoff from
Lakeview; where they won two
'one-sided games from thei Honk
ers 47 to 21 and 49 to 2ft'

New York,- Jan. 20 Lt
Cmdr.- " Benny Leonard; believes
that Sgt: Joe Louis will! continue
campaigning as a top-flight heavy-weighty-
perhaps aschampion
for five or six more years. ' :
Leonard, sparring with a break
er of jamocha at Toots Shor s last
night, smilingly relegated Louis'
latest statement, about retiring
after one title defense against
Billy Conn, to the pigeon hole of
smart operations, '.'.- v
"Louis is a smart operator, anu
he has shrewd advisors,"', ex
plained the blue-garbed officer of
the U. S. maritime service who
ruled the lightweight division for
seven busy years-. "They dim' t
want the public to forget that
when peace comes the big fight
the million-dollar fight is that re
turn bout between Louis and
Conn. I wouldn't be surprised' If
Joe would keep promising retire
ment, until that bout is over.. This
woilld1 help concentrate attention
of fight fans on ,the bout. . . - ...
Benny, in charge of recreation
and morale at the big Sheepshead
bay maritime service trainingsta
tion, said he was convinced that
the Brown Bomber would con
tinue active for five or six years
for three reasons: (1) He loves
the fight game; it's his life
(2) He has the body to do it, and
(3) needing money when he gets
out of the service, Sgt. Joe will
try to hammer out enough wealth
to make him independent for the
rest oi ms lite.
: Leonard emphasized that Louis
has the physical equipment fur
long service in tho ring. The
heavyweight champion will be 31
in May. That would be a ripe, age
in divisions below tho 160pound,
middleweight class, where con
testants are "burned out". more
quickly by blistering pace, But
Benny stressed that heavies ma
ture later than smaller men. He
remarked that Bob Fltzslmmons
and Jack Johnson were both 37

BISHOP Hit. II S( OltFIt
Bremerton, Wash., Jan. 20 ttp
Gall Bishop, high-scoring former
Washington State star and an ail
American A.A.U. choice, rolled in
36 points last night as his Fort
Lewis Warriors defeated the
Bremerton Rockets of the North
west league, 63-51.
tlvely. Willard was 36 when he
took the Toledo beating from Jack
Dempsey, etc. . " .
He continued, "at 30, Louis has
a grand' fighting-body. When he
enteredtne army in V3V2, Joe had
about 53 bouts in nine years. He
had been active enough to keep
sharp; meanwhile his punch pre
vented most of his opponents
from doing him much damage or
lasting the scheduled distances.
He suffered no bad beatings, ex
cept in the first Schmeling fight;
and his shuffling style burns up
little tissue. Moreover, he has
been' a clean liver not given to
any dissipations. He has had no
illnesses; and his body still is
still comparatively young.
"Joe has been fortunate, since
entering the army, that his duties
have kept him going through the
motions of training and fighting.
That's very important. It's true
that tnere is no substitute far
tough" competition to keen one
rrazor-tharp; i but going through
the motions almost dally, like Jo1
has been doini?v will prevent him
from losing his speed, timing and
Judgment of distance. And his
sparmates are good enough to
Keep mm alert.
Benny knows how important it
is to "keep going through the mo
tions." He retired as undefeated
lightweight champion in 1924, and
concentrated on buslnos's quite un
successfully. Needing money, he
started a comeback in 1931 seven
long years after his retirement.
He trained for six months, paring
down from a blubbcry 180 pounds
to 150, and began campaigning as
a welterweight. After five exhibi
tions, he had 21 pro bouts, end
ing with his Madison Square Gar
den Knockout by nardmttlng Jim
my McLarnln. Considering his
long lay-off, and the age of 36
when he met McLarnln, Benny did
fairly well on his come-back. He
said, "I'm positive I would have
done much better might have
beaten McLarnln, if I had kept up
some sort of training during my
retirement, like Louis is doing in
the army.
