BATTLE THRILLER
OF SEMI-FINALS
By Bob Coil-is. t
Whoever It was who first got off
the now quaint old bromide of "the
third's the charm." will In all like
lihood -urn contentedly In his grave
as an added bit of verification will be
given ill theory when the boys who
have proven they've got what It takea
to mU In the finals of the big tour
ney tn the armory tonight. Prom
their rather dubious, slovenly start,
the amateur punchers moved Into an
entirely new category last eve; If the
same Improvement Is hown tonight
well, Its Just a case of warning
Max Baer that worse evils than Hit
ler abound In this particular year
of our Lord and that here on our
own coast.
Not that last night brought out
skill that cut down on thrills; for
while it is true the boss did their
bong and dance act with much more
finesse than In the opening bouts,
the canvas, nonetheless, took, just as
bad a drubbing In the yesterday go
es. Thirteen fights for the num
ber. If no other reason had to re
sult unluckily for some of the lada.

And -he fist f lingers who discovered

Earl Page, Medford; Arhcraft, Ash

o. route the first four via technical
and Hlil by the more to be deplored
method.
My penny or will that make the
boya pro, Mr. Showers for the most
exciting tiff of the cara goes to La
von Dunford and Eddie Joanas. They
can either divide the copper or fight
for It but If they decide to do the
latter, will someone please call 735J?
That's something I don't calculate
mlssln?, by heck not If the Med
ford boy and the Ashland all-around
star dupllcute their argument of
Tuesday. Dunford eked out the de
cision by as narrow an eke as any old
eke expert ever saw. And threw, and
took, a million punches in the do
ing. Things like that turn banker
and preachers and housewives Into

final test, and the one that counts.
