Timber Wolf Division
Fights, Field House
►
Heavyweight Contender Arrives
Tuesday; Guest of Lt. Bob Duffy
Two feature attractions are booked for the Field House Friday
nig" starting at 8 p. m. — one an exhibition bout by Lou Nova,
as; I: ant to Joe Louis’ vacated (for the duration) heavyweight throne
and the second the long awaited opening bouts to decide the Timber
Wolf Division individual and team boxing titles.
Nova
will accomplish three*
things during his visit to Camp
Adair as a guest of the Timber
Wulf Division:
He will visit with his friend and
former school days opponent on
the gridiron and basketball court,
Lt. R. C. Duffy, Division Athletic
Officer: he will entertain the per­
sonnel of the post with a boxing
exhibition and also give pointers
to the boys fihgting for titles
the Division tourney.
Eddie Collins
Trains for June 11
Ard he will start training for
his bout on June 11 in Portland,
when he will meet either Tony
Gale.nto, Mauriella or Hartneck in
a ten round battle.
The 28-year-old Alameda, Cali­
fornia. Adonis, fresh from his vic­
tort over “Chuck” Crowell in Port­
land last Friday evening, arrived
in camp Tuesday afternoon. He is
greatly interested in getting around
and working out with members of
the unit boxing teams who will be
participating in the championship
bout-, starting Friday night.
Lou Would Walk
His first question upon arriving
at camp was:
“Are they going on any 20 mile
hikes tomorrow?
If they are I
wart to go along.” He finally set­
tled for a bicycle trip around the
area, so if you see a baby tank
with curly hair pedaling a bike
around camp. just yell, “'Hello,
Lou!”
During his boxing career as
an amateur. he occupied the
United States and World ama-
teur heavyweight throne in 1935.
the year after it was held by Joe
Louis. He has had 36 pro fights,
losing four of them. He and
Louis drew the largest gate at
New York City in 1941 when he
was K.O.ed in six rounds by the
Brown Bombers. He would like
to meet Louis again.
His exhibition Friday evening
will probably be against three or
four men, going a round with each ’
one and if there aren’t that many
mer. who wish to box with him. he
wiij go four rounds with the boxing
coa h of the Mountaineers.
Wolves Split, Lose
One Game to 'Stars
The Timber Wolf Division nine snlit a double header
bill witi the Salem All Stars last Sunday at the George E.
Waters Park, winning the first slugfest 11 to 9 and dropping
the seven inning nightcap 13 to 6, before 1200 Salem and
soldier fans.
The win in the first contest ex­
tended the Timber Wolves’ winning
streak to six straight and every­
thing was going alore smoothly in
the second game until the All Sta*-«
staged an uprising in the third
inning that took three Wolf hiirler-
to put down and then orl- after
13 AU Stars bad been at the plate
and eight of them had scored with
two men still on the sack« when
Frye threw Manning out for the
final out.
The All Stars vent off to a two
run lead in the first game in the
first frame on a hit. an error, a
sacrifice, a hit batsman, a walk and
an infield out. The Timber Wolves
came back in their half of the
second inning to send eleven men
to the plate arid score seven runs
on seven hits as every one except
Gregory who walked and Rich who
struck out. collected a base knock.
The Stars picked up another mark­
er in the third as Cameron doubled
and scored on two successive balks
by Langsam. The Timber Wolves
garnered single runs in the fourth
145-pounder and
threat in Timber Wolf boxing and fifth as Connor hit safely to

Lou Nova Writes
Dear Pvt. Timber W»lf:—I guess
I got out of Portland just in the
nick of time. It seems everyone up
in the City of Roses was going
to make a bed of them for yours
truly, on account of “Chuck” Crow­
ell still being in a vertical position
at the end of the ten rounts of
leather pushing the other night at
the auditorium, anyway I win as
we say in the boxing business.

Revenge is sweet, particularly
when it is on someone else who
in 99 out of 100 possible situations
could pull his rank on you and
make you eat crow. The one ex-
ception in this case happened to
be a softball game last Wednesday
night on Post Headquarters dia­
mond. The MP Detachment took
advantage of the equalizing factors
by defeating the SCU Officers
Softball team 5 to 1.

Again Lt. Denton in short center­
field stole the show with his mag­
nificent . fielding of anything that
came within shouting distance. Lt.
Gill also looked good handling some
hot chances at third base.
For the MP’s, Charley Larkin
shone with his fielding at the short
patch and his timely hitting while
Joe Doran in right field added
much needed pepper to the out-
