CUT TO RIBBONS
By I.OYD BL'LMCR
Seattle, Sept. 11 (U.RI Pacific
northwest football teams have
certainly followed the lead of
the I'nlversity of Washington In
bringing "big-name" schools In
to their football schedules.
This year alone, the three
northwest members of the Pa
cific coast conference, Washing
Ion, Washington State and
Idaho, will face intersectional
competition ranked among the
best and toughest In the coun
try. Idaho, for years languishing
in the PCX' cellar, will jour
ney to Austin, Tex., October
1 to meet the Longhorns of
the University of Texas.
Washington beards Notre
Dame, at Seattle, plays Min
nesota at the Gophers' home
stadium and also faces Utah.
Washington State takes on
Utah State.
And the prospect for more
"top-drawer" competition in
succeeding years is bright.
Washington has a home-and
home scries scheduled with Illi
nois, while Washington State
signed up Oklahoma A. & M.
for a twin-bill. Last year the
Cougars met Penn State, losing
by only a slight margin.
The University of Montana,
acknowledged "weak-sister" of
the PCC, has a number of inter
sectional battles. South Dakota,
Utah State, Colorado A. & M.
and Brigham Young all appear
on the 1949 Grizzly schedule.
The rest of the Pacific coast
conference teams also have some
hefty opposition approaching.
Southern California takes on
Notre Dame and Ohio State.
UCLA and Oregon both meet
Iowa. California invades Wis
consin: Stanford plays Harvard
and Michigan and Oregon State
takes on Michigan State.
Northwest schools are using
the inter-sectional games for a
twin purpose. First, to draw
larger crowds. Second, to prove
to the rest of the nation that
despite poor showings in the
last three Rose Bowl games, the
Pacific coast can produce teams
comparable with the rest of the
country.
The "little" schools of the
Pacific northwest haven't
been backward about contact
ing inter-sectional opposition.
But with a smaller budget, the
range is limited.
Nevertheless, Evergreen
conference teams this year
will play a total of IS squads
outside the conference.
Angel Watches His Dream Slashed
New York, Sept. 1.1 Ufi)
Angel Lopez, a dapper little
man with a passion for prize
fighters and rhumba music, was
"awfool opset" today at the
manner In which a Harlem knife
fight almost cut his champion
lliip dream to rihhons.
Lopez is the self-admitted
"hot sports" who can blow
five-figure wager on a horse
race or a leather pushing contest
without a quiver of his tiny
black moustache.
But the suave night club
owner who has "much mon
ies" was an amateur boxer in
his hectic youth, the days when
he came to the United States
from Spain and set out to
found his rhythmic fortune.
So always he admired the
champions and, when he fin
ally admitted to himself that
he never would he a fistic
champ, Lopez built himself a
shining dream of some day
managing one.
It was a long-delayed vision.
But as Angel's bankroll increas
ed, ' so did his prospects. He
bought the contracts of one
fighter after another.
Finally he thought he had a
lad who would make the grade,
I puncher named Jose Basora.
But in 1945, Jose folder up in
the late going against Ray Rob
inson and the disgusted Lopez
peddles him off quickly.
Then came a youngster out
of Camaguay, Cuba, who
seemed like a sure shot. His
name was Gerardo Gonzales
and they called him "Kid
Gavllan."
Gerardo, It seemed, had been
Jiscovered by a manager named
Fernando Balldo. The latter
ran a candy shop called "El
Gavllan." So Gerardo was nam
d after the candy store and
be was a real sweet swinger.
Not only that, but he could
rhumba like a professional danc
er. That sold Lopez, and he
bought the "keeds's" contract.
"El Gavilan" in Spanish
moans "The Hawk," and the
"kecd" fought like one. Soon
Ihey were calling him the best
thing to come out of Cuba since
Kid Chocolate invaded the Unit
fd States in 1928.
So It appeared, finally, as if
I.oipez would realize his long
time dream and come up with
a champion. They got their
shot last July against Knhin
son hut Gavilan lost the deci
sion. Still, there was a ehanre.
for Robinson is ready to va
cate the welterweight crown
and Gavilan looked like the
best possible successor.
Much of it depended on the
Jake Lamotta-Marcel C e r d a n
middleweight title fight Sept.
28. If Lamotta wins, he will de
fend against Robinson. That
meant he would abandon the
welter title and leave it to be
fought for by Gavilan and Char
ley Fusari.
The "Keed's" chances would
By OSCAR FRALEY
be better than even to finally
make Angel's dream come true.
But early Sunday morning
Gavilan was slashed on the neck
when he became involved in a
harlem street argument. He es
caped with five stitches in his
neck.
"I should be ver-ee hap-ee
Lopez said as he considered the
slight damage. "Bot when I
thecnk how close thee keed came
to mavbeee getting keeled, wal
I m steel awfool opset.

Vikings Receive
Uniforms, Polish
For Friday Start
Uniforms were issued to the
Salem high school football team
Monday afternon as Coach Loren
Mort prepared to put the final
polish on the team for the open

Despite improved action on
the part of the Viking crew in
virtually every department, the
Salems face a stiff test when
they meet the Trappers.
Coach Roy Sandberg, while
hampered by a lack of exper
ienced linemen on the Vancou
ver squad is reported to be toy

After two operations to im
prove his wind, Trainer Harry
Richards of Lexington, Ky.,
obtained the tube from Ire
land, his former home. The
operation involved the remov
al of two or three cartilages
In the horse's windpipe for
the insertion of the tube.
The gadget fits through an
opening in the windpipe. It is
like a T-joint in a plumbing
fixture. The T portion of the
pipe extends up and down in
the windpipe with the base of
the T coming through the open
ing in the neck where it is fitted
with a round metal plate. The
plate has a shutter that can
be closed when the horse isn't
exercising or racing.
To date Ballawee has raced
four times and shows one vic
tory, a second and a third. His
only time out of money was at
Riverdowns near Cincinnati
when it is believed that rain in
terfered with his breathing.
Trainer Richards is very care
ful about conditions when he
enters his charge. A muddy
track could cause trouble if a
clump of mud were to be thrown
against the windpipe opening.
He avoids racing the gelding on
humid or rainy days.
The gelding was purchased
at the Lexington Sales by
Judge F. V. Barbour.
"The horse has considerable
promise, ' says Richards, "lhe
tube is removed daily for sterili
zation. At night, or when the
horse is resting the tube is
closed and he breathes normally."
Ballawee has been campaign
ng at Dade Park in Henderson.
