July 36. (AP) Amer ica's hopes of recapturing the Davis cup, lost in 1927, soared today as Wllmer Allison, veteran Texan, was drawn to meet England's H. W. (Bunny) Austin In the opening sin gles match of the challenge round, starting tomorrow at Wimbledon. The second match of the opening day's program will pit Donald Budge, red -headed Callfornlan, against Fred Perry, king of the world's amateurs. Their chance of lifting the cup apparently resting entirely on the ability of both Allison and Budge to whip Austin, the Americans were openly delighted by the luck of the draw, which gives the 31-year-old Texan his crack at England's second string singles ace on the first day while he still will be fresh.

Dean -won the first fall crushing the 356-pound Teuton with a varia tion of the gravity hold, called the backward mountain fly.

The stroke of the hammer must have been sweet music in the slender Texan's ears, as he gritted his teeth and kept from giving up despite Bel castro's straining and prying, until Timekeeper Johnny Millard's watch had ticked off the last three minutes. Clean and replete with fancy leg work as well as other scientific holds, the match nevertheless lacked the ac tion that featured a bout two weeks ago when Belcastro and Wolfe tussled to a gruelling draw. Belcastro was without his usual fire, and was plain ly "burned" when the elusive Texan evaded holds and dodged drop-kicks that would have flattened many a grappier. Al Stecher. veteran Canadian, fell over backwards on his head In the other half of the double main event, when Sad Sam Lethers of Dallas, Texas, suddenly pulled away with the aid of the hopes. Al had such a head ache that he was an easy victim to the giant Texan's rolling scissors for the third and deciding tumble. The fall came in two minutes. The stocky Canadian champion drew lusty booes from the crowd when he started using foul tactics early In the match, but popular Sad Sam con vinced the fans that he can still take care of himself by taking the first fall In 14 minutes with his spectacu lar rolling scissors. His 1B7 pounds was 17 less than the Texan's weight, but nevertheless Stecher handled the big southerner like a real champion with effective arm bars, winning the middle fall with his favorite hammer lock In 6 minutes. Curly Woods, young former middle weight champion of the coast, who returned to Medford this week for the first time since he began- the wrest ling game here nine years ago. out smarted and out-toughled Roland Warren of Klamath Falls in the 20 minute opening bout, which ended with no falls. Woods. 157, demonstrated some of the fastest leg-work seen here In years and showed, a knowledge of many unique holds that surprised both Warren and the fans. Promoter LI Hard said last night's crowd was the largest since the Savoldl -Lethers match here a year ago. Floyd Wolfgang, local middle weight; Chester Wood, 150-pounder from Ashland; Al Karaslck, Johnny Soos and Bob Kennaston all Issued challenges. POLICE OPEN DRIVE ON SALEM.

If, on the other hand, the Levlnsky match Is viewed as a chance to pick up some easy money Louis had better watch his step. There have been too many in stances In the ring game where the "sucker" turned out to be a "socker." You Just can't depend on these sup posedly soft touches being soft. Little Lou Ambers could enlighten Joe on the subject as the result of an incident that happened in his recent bout with Eddie Zlvlc In Pittsburgh. That is, of course. If Lou could open his mouth enough to talk with the way It's wired up. For eight rounds Lou had a lot of fun with Zlvlc, piling up points on the local favorite about as he pleased. In the ninth round he was chewing his mouthpiece when Zlvlc caught him with a right hander on the open Jaw the net result being one broken Jawbone for Ambers. That momen tary lapse against a fighter he took for an easy mark will keep Ambers out of action for several months. No telling how much It will cost him in ca ncelled engagements. Yarosz Caught One. Too The very first bout of 1935 turned out to be Just such a boomerang for Teddy Yarosz, middleweight title holder. On the afternoon of January 1st Teddy took on an unknown by the name of Babe Rlsko in an over weight bout. Collecting 81,500 guar antee for giving Rlsko a boxing lesson was a good way to start the new year, the champion figured. You can Imagine Teddy's amaze-1 ment when Rlsko bounced out of his corner and started throwing punches with reckless abandon. In the first few rounds Yarosz took a terrific lac ing and was saved from being count ed out when one of his seconds mer cifully tossed in a towel. He had the 1,500, and his precious title, thanks to an extra pound or two of weight that Risko was forced to carry into the ring, but it cost him plenty of prestige. Max Baer thought It would be a swell plan to pick up some easy money and at the same time fight himself Into shape by taking on a lot of push-overs in exhibition matches. Well, he made some money and got into pretty good shape, too. but he also wound up with a pair of badly battered hands to remember the tour by. Experience Needed Had Max taken Jimmy Braddock even a bit seriously he quite likely would still be wearing the world's heavyweight crown. But he wouldn't there wasn't anything in Brad dock's record to lndfcate to Baer that he belonged in the same ring with the champion. All through the early rounds of their bout Max acted as though he could toss in the old crusher any time he so desired and end the fight but before he knew It he was running out of rounds and Braddock was still very much around and piling up a winning margin. There is little- or nothing to indi cate that King Levlnsky has any hope of weathering Joe Louis' devastating punch for more than a couple of rounds, much less having a chance of beating the Detroit negro. The Klngflsh Is nothing more than a tough trial horse. Why, Mnx Baer stopped him In an exhibition match. ; But Just the same he is a tough cus- j tomer and not the sort of a fighter 1 to make Louis look good even In win ning. j Louis la young and with but a year's experience in the professional 1 ranks he can stand the experience the bout Is sure! to give him. The higher he climbs up the fistic ladder the less frequent his bouts will be and consequently lessen his oppor tunities to gain knowledge by experi ence In the ring. REALLY FINE BEERS" SAW SOLON LEAVE HOTEL WITH BOX (Continued from P?e One.) "Nothing has transpired that the light of day cannot shine on. I hope I may be struck dead here if that la not the truth and the whole expose of the business." When Sellers was dismissed, Patton took the stand again, obviously ner vous and shaken. "I never was so profoundly fooled in my life than I am at the testimony you have Just heard," he began, slow ly, standing at the witness table. He added that he had met Sellers at his hotel and they had become In timate friends. "I have never been so shaken and chagrined in all my life," he added. "My bank account is open and the cancelled checks are there." Never Heard of Box "I have never heard tell of the little box Mr. Sellers tells aoout." "I've? told you the straight, honest-to-Qod truth about the situation," I Patton said. "I never carried any other box away from there. I can bring my little wife down here and Mrs. Carpenter to substantiate this." He said he had known Sellers a long time and his testimony came "out of & clear sky." He termed him "one of the nicest gentlemen I know." "What he said has got me," Patton said. "I Just dont' know what to say." Meanwhile. In a room nearby, con gressional conferees on the utility holding bill broke up another row over whether Benjamin Cohen, ad ministration advisor on the legisla tion, should be permitted to attend their meeting. On the senate floor, a proposal by Senator Nye (R., N.D.( to establish a central government-owned bank was defeated, 59 to 10.
