HOLLIS RETAINS MEANIE TITLE BY FLOPPING CLEET Toughy Clect of New York, balled M one of primitive passions and bulging muscles, ' Just wasn't tough enough In hU match last night wltb Ke'n Hollls, the original bad bad- man, and he took a terrlflo lacing from the Arkansas meanfe, losing two falls. The opening fall went to Hollls on body slams and a body pin. after the two had slugged and kicked around the ring several times, Hollls making hotly for the ropes every time the going got stiff. . He was too much for the New Yorker, however, and after Clset had oome back to take the second fall with body slams, Hollls exhibited all his best brutality and took the de elding fall. Cleat had Hollls tied, up on. the ropes when a blow to his stomach loosed the bold and the Ar kansas wrestler pinned him with body press. The big thrill of the evening was the winning of the middle main event by. Frankle Feck over big Bhlnuchl Shlkuma, Japanese - belt Jtu Jlteu champion, In a mixed match. The victory was the first for any white man in such a contest, although Shlkuma has been defeated In straight catch-as-catch-can wrestling match several times. Peck took the first fall In four minutes and one second with a punishing headlock, followed by butts and body slams. Never letting bis opponent get set, the big Irishman from ban Francisco kept boring In with Deadlocks and and arm bars, The middle fall, under the Jlu rules with Jlu Jackets, went to Shl kuma In eight minutes, but only af ter terrlflo struggle, and with Feck applying most as many Jlu Jlteu holds as his opponent. His breaking of one strangle hold by the expedient of ramming his thumbs under Shlku-ma-'e ears left the Jspaneae weakened after the fall.. The final frame went to Peck In short order as he again clamped his vise-like headlock on, ending the bout with a Boston crab. In "Dude" Chick, Promoter Mack Llllard presented a . man against "Tiger" Taskoff who Immediately took popular favor. The big blond ex-cowpuncher heaved the Bulgarian around with such virile vigor that the orowd howled tbelr enthusiasm, as Chick presented his "lariat apln" ao effectively that Taskoff was un able to return for the third fall and the bout went to Chick by default. Chick ahowed three holda seldom seen here. Hla first spectacular showing was when ha threw Taskoff high In the air with a shoulder butt, pulling the "Tiger" to him, and then straightening up under him. Tas koff came down on the mat as though he had fallen oft a barn, and repeat ing this maneuver loft him. In poor condition. Another' hold that met with popular acclaim was when Chick picked up his opponent and held him with his throat resting on the top strand of the ropes, ' almost, choking him to death. ; . The climax was the "lariat spin," an airplane spin so fast and so pro longed that It loft the Bulgarian as woozy as a sailor on a three-weeks' drunk. Taskoff was so dlazy after the apln that he was physically In capable of voluntary movement for 10 minutes after Referee Rry Friable stopped the match. i ' SKMl-ANNUAi.

' At RANDOM By Dick Applegate It baa been called to our attention by John Redden that Wednesday night wouldn't be such a hot night for the Initial meeting of the Med ford Tennis club, In that the theaters usually manage to take the center of the stage aa far aa popular Interest Is concerned. So the meeting has been postponed and will be held Thursday night at 8 o'clock at the Smoke House bowl. There seems to be considerable doubt In the minds of those who have not watched a game of table tennis for some years, aa to the powers of the game In producing perspiration, or .In more delicate terms, the ef fectlvenesa of table tennis aa a train. Ing meaeure to take off a few extra pounds. With the new forehand serve, and the speed with which the ball la aklttered across the net, praa- tlcally anyone we know can get a very effective workout at the tables. Either that or he'll take some un merciful beatings when hie opponent starta placing his shots first on one corner and then on the other. We know of no other game In which It Is necessary to move ao faat ao often. Ken Hollls Is still head toughy ' In these parts, regardless of the efforts of "Toughy" fleet last night. The way Hollls whammed the mat with Cleet, and the ease with which "Dude" Chirk tossed "Tiger" Taskorr around, brings to mind the Idea that there would be a rear match Chick against Hollls. Chick Is rugged enough to withstand the battering Hollls assault, and Is colorful enoogh to draw .a ..crowd no., matter who might be wrestling. After watch ing Hollls pummel foes who are on the mat, for several weeks now, It would be refreshing to see him' the victim of that "lar iat spin, or that devastating shoulder butt. The "Tiger," he of the bristly jnoustache, doesn't look hla real age If you started to guess, you would already have two atrlkes on you. From an Inside couroe. but not from Taskoff himself, we. discovered how old he Is... He hasn't reached his 60th birthday yet. In fact, he hasn't reached his Both, or his 40th. The man la actually only 83 years old. The moustache and bald bean make him look four years older than Roxy Ann, but those who have seen him out of the brush are startled by hla young appearance. The entire Japanese colony turned out to see Shlnuohl Shlkuma against Frankle Peck last night. Every time the big black belt champion would whirl Peck around in a hip lock like a sack of rice, the pleas ed beam on the faces of the Nip ponese gave one the Idea as ' to why Japan' la called . the land of the rising sun They didn't look so happy about It when Peck finally won, but they were awfully good sports about It. We are told every Japanese In the valley who could possibly get there was represented at the ringside, and those who couldn't make It stayed home and listened to the radio. Were the rest of us ever In Japan we'd un doubtedly feel the Dame about some of our home talent. WHITMAN WINS 42-25 IN TILT WITH PACIFIC FOREST OROVI, Ore., Jan. 14.

Coach Howard Hobson, and the numerous transfers who followed him here from Southern Oregon normal, gave the other coast schools plenty to worry about by tbelr booming, fast-breaking offense. The Webfoot Olants, headed by six-foot-six Ward Howell, were ahead only 34 to 18 at the half. But, in the second canto their' shots the backboard beat a steady stsc cato and they kept the scorer busy registering 87 points while Idaho gained but 11. Idaho started out atrong and led to 8 early In the game. Oregon moved ahead, but Wally Oeraghty, the Vandals' all-conference guard, caged three 1 goala In rapid succes' slon to tie the score at 13-all. Oregon then moved ahead, and at the start of the second half ran up 18 points before Idaho scored again. Coach Hobson kept sending In fresh Olants to maintain the terrific pace and rest hla regulars for tonight's 'game here with tne Vandals and for Friday's significant game with Oregon State, defending northern division champion. The reaorvea had nearly as much success finding the hoop as did the regulars. Howell scored 18 points to bead the scoring, while Uebowlti fol lowed with 16. Willie Jones, Ore gon's high scorer last season, had to be content with only six points.

He Is Congress. man James W. Wadsworth of New York, whose name will be heard more frequently hereafter. The selection Is still In the dream stage, but the dreaming la being done by persons who have been able to make some of their dreams come true In the past. Wadsworth would probably be good astern balance wheel for any western Republican presidential can did ate, but he is particularly well suited technically to the Landon situ ation. He Is wet and conservative. The lack of Interest with which Governor Talmadge was greeted dur ing his recent visit to Washington bespoke a new policy toward him. The new dealers did not even take the trouble to hate him. All he was permitted to say was "New when his name was called on a reso lution lauding the new deal. One newsman bet him a quart tht he would not have a delegate to the next convention; another a hat that he would not have his home state delegation. They made safe bets.

Jobs were hard to find, partlcular- for a single woman, who had long before discarded feminine garb and went about dressed in rough male clothing. , But Jack Plottner had been up against hard luck before and won out. She atarted a woodlot, sawing, splitting and delivering.' She worked at anything that, would bring In a dollar. She picked prunes, helped In the hay harvest, worked In stores and begged odd Jobs. ' - At times she admits, the larder waa pretty low and the belt pulled up tighter, but her calloused, blis tered handa continued to slug away at Old Man Trouble. , Then late In December, aa If to orove the old adage, "It's darkest Just before dawn," she received a iheck for 3000 and notice that she had fallen heir to aome valuable stocks and bonds, a 160-acre farm In Indi ana, two houses and lota In Peru, Indiana, and other assets, assuring her of a oomfortable Income for the balance of her years. "It was a tremendous relief,'1 she said, In commenting upon her feel ings when a fortune fell In her lap. "It's no fun to have to live from hand to mouth. It'a depressing and j sometimes discouraging. "At first I enjoyed every waking moment and dreamed of my good fortune at night, but now I've suf fered a let-down. "I've always been busy and now with nothing to do I'm beginning to get restless. I must find something to do to keep me busy, or I'll go nuts."

"I'm going to live within my means, and stretch thla good fortune so It will Include the rest of the days of my life. My wants are few and easily cared for a bit to eat and wear, plenty of olgar ettea and an occasional glssa of beer.
