good choice.

ular because they deliver the
goods. Heavy oil tanned leath

Ray Sales Wins
On GKost Punch
Oakland, Calif., Feb. 8 UP) Ray
Salas, 136, Berkeley, Calif., today
was credited witn a knockout vie
tory over Mike Gamiere, 139'Ai,
Cleveland, although the kayo
punch apparently didn't come
from Salas.
Gamiere last night fell to the
canvas after Salas landed a short
right to the body just as the
Cleveland fighter threw a left
hook. An examination by Dr. John
Coleman revealed a vertebra in
Gamiere's neck had snapped out
of place.
Ringside observers theorized
the injury came either from Gam
fore's fall on the canvas or that
in' some way his own wild punch
hrl caused a dislocation.
NICE NAME, ANYWAY
Southboro, Mass. UP) A local
dairy products firm is manufac
turing Cvinaya Tushonka. It's a
canned meat and vegetable hash
combination that serves as a type
of K-ration for Russia's armed
forces.
Sweden expects, by reducing
the cost of charcoal by collecting
and selling nil byproducts, to pro
duce a fuel for its charcoal burn
ing producer-gas automobile en
gines that will be at least as
cheap as imported gasoline.

ed by Howard Hobson, University
of Oregon basketball coach.
Columbia won the game 73 to
58 under the new scoring and
would have been a 59 to 44 victor

tional rules. It was regarded sig
nificant that the margin of dif
ference was the same in both
cases 15 points.
' Scoring Zone Set
The changes provided that all
field goals scored outside a 21-foot
arc counted three points and that
fouled players had an option of
taking their free throws from 21
feet for two points or from 15
feet for the regular one point. A
third change, with which coaches

plaint was widening of the "anti
