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.

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.

UOENE, Ore., Jan. 14. (AP)
University of Oregon's dark-horse
basketbsll team turned Into a dash
ing runaway In Its first coast con'
ference, northern division frame of
the aeason, and trampled Unlver
slty of Idaho under a terrlflo 81
to 39 score here last night.
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.
Twelve of Idaho's points were reg
istered by the sharp ahootlng Oer

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

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

"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

"I've always been busy and now
with nothing to do I'm beginning to

As soon as spring comes one of her
