It was blood and thundred at Ash­
land’s Eagles hall Tuesday night
with a capacity crowd of over 200
fight fans going home talking to
themselves.
From the opening bout, a three-
rounder between Joe Scott and
Charles Warren, both Junior high
basketball players at 104 pounds,
until the main event when Harold
Wright, 125, from Chiloquin,
klunked Buddy Jacks, same weight
from Medford's CCC camp, on the
button twice to win a technical
ko, the paying customers were
treated to as nifty a card as could
be hoped for.
In the main go Wright, a Klam­
ath Indian, swarmed over, around
and figuratively through the game
Jacks to take the first two rounds
by a wide margin and finished it
up in the third with a crushing left
hook to the chin that put Jacks
down for what would have surely
been the count if Jack's second
hadn't thrown in the towel.
Frank Redke, alias Max Baer,
alias King Kong, alias Lon Chaney,
the pride of Southern Oregon Nor­
mal school, grimaced, laughed out
loud and scowled his way to a
decision over Red Handsaker in
the four round semi-windup. Both
weighed 160 pounds. Redke had the
crowd near hysterics by his clown­
ing tactics, but he had to do some
tall fighting to eke out the de­
cision.
Blood ran freely in the four-
rounder between Billy Hawkins
and Chuck Abel, both of Ashland
and middleweights. The fight was
the best of the evening, with both
boys slugging it out toe to toe
from the opening gong and the
draw decision was well received.
Art LuCore and John Berberick,
CCC students from th«* Portland
branch, went four tough frames to
a draw in the second match of the
evening, each scaling 160 and each
plenty willing to mix it. And doing
so.
The card was the second held
under the auspices of the Ashland
Eagles and if succeeding ones
prove as thrilling, little old Ash­
land will be a fight town in any
man’s league. Next card will be
held in two weeks and some equal­
ly willing boys are expected to be
signed up.

Flashes With Close
IS NEAR CERTAINTY Games Under Parr
With their long-hoped for trip
to the national AAU basketball
tournament in Denver early in
March almost assured due to the
fine cooperation of the Ashland
city council and Medford chamber
of commerce, Howard Hobson’s
Southern Oregon Normal school
quintet will begin a month of se­
rious conditioning when they tan­
gle with the Klamath Falls Peli­
cans, an independent outfit, to­
morrow night in the junior high
gym. Game will start at 8:15
sharp.
Of the $600 needed to send the
SONS on their way to match field
goals with the best teams in
America, $200 has been raised
through the medium of an appro­
priation from the Ashland city
council Tuesday night. Two hun­
dred more is expected almost Im­
mediately from the Medford cham­
ber of commerce and the remain­
der will probably be raised through
like channels in other southern
Oregon cities.
Thar's basketball bein' played

If you don't believe it, ask Roy
Parr who does the coaching at his
grammar school way up Wagner
Creek. His team has played five
games and all have been pretty
tough affairs. In one high scoring
battle, Talent beat his team 8-4.
Then, Wagner Creek turned around
and took Sams Valley 8-4. Came
Jacksonville to take a 7-5 walk-
away from the Wagner Creekers.
Reversing the tablea, Wagner
Creek went field-goal crazy to
trounce Jacksonville, 5-4.
And, to top it all off, and give
the score keeper a real case of
writer’s cramp, Talent ran all over
Roy's team by the score of 1-0.
