Ken Hollls, Oaf of th Ozark
And pet hat of the Med ford wrestl
ing fraternity, who was tentatively
acheduled to tackle Pete Belcaatro.
Pacific coast junior heavyweight
champion, on Monday night's main
went at the Armory, la planning
a run-out, It wu learned today.
Hollls, who ha taken two atralght
beatings In the Med ford ring, at
the hand of Dude Chick and Al
Karaslck, Monday night wired to
the home booking office In Los An
geles requesting that his schedule
be altered and he be returned there.
Re gave no other reason than that
Referee Ray Prlsble was unfair to
him In the ring, and that he was
tired of wrestling In this commu
nity. The Arkansas meanle la ,under
the jurisdiction of Promoter Mack
Lillard jon a three weeks contract,
and Lillard holds a fourth week op
tion to hold Hollls over If he so
desires. He aald today that If Hollls
takes the run-out powder and re
turns to Los Angeles without meet
ing Belcastro he will ask the Med
ford boxing commission to suspend
Hollls indefinitely. Lillard also stated
that he would ask the Lc Angeles
booking office to have the Arkansan
barred from any ring coming under
the Los Angelea Jurisdiction, which
Includes all California arenas.
Hollls and Belcastro met in Klam
ath Falls several months ago end
Hollls won. In a later bout In Los
Angeles Belcastro avenged that de
feat with a resounding thumping
handed the unorthodox Hollls, al
though the Arkansan claims that
the defeat has nothing to do with
his determination to leave this dis
trict. There Is a possibility that either
Dr. Barney Cosneck or Al Karaslck
will meet Belcastro on the main
rent if Hollls departs, Lillard said.
Another possible opponent for the
versatile Italian Is the flre-eatlng
Mike Caddock, the promoter Indi
cated, . although he would make no
definite announcement until the
Hollls affair Is settled.
"A battle between Hollls and Pete
would be a natural, with the Med
ford fana well acquainted enough
with Belcastro to know what he can
probably do. Hundreds have asked
me to arrange that match and I In
tend to do It or have Hollls sus
pended." Lillard said.
Stanley Rogers, who appeared her
for the past three weeks, will not
be on next week's card. The loss of
Rogers, and the probable loss of
Hollls has resulted In the probability
of at least two new faces, according
to Lillard, who said that he is ma
neuvering for the pick of the Los
Angelea crop.

SPRING FOOTBALL
PRACTICE STARTS
NEW ITT TALENT
TO
ELKS RING
OF
Southern Oregon housewives will
be shown all the advantages of cook
ing with gas at a special demonstra
tion to be conducted in Medford to
morrow, Friday and Saturday under
the direction of Mrs. Ann Chaney, of
Portland, afternoon sessions being
acheduled for the three afternoons
from two to five o'clock at 38 South'
Grape street, south of the Liberty
building.
Mrs. Chaney, a well-known home
economics authority, was secured by
the Southern Oregon Gas corpora
tion to acquaint women of this lo
cality with Important features relat
ing to best results in cooking on gas
ranges. The visiting culinary expert
will work In cooperation with mem
bers of 4-H clubs of Jackson county,
according to D. E. York, manager of
the local branch of the Southern
Oregon Gaa corporation.
"Our company extends a cordial
invitation to all women of the valley
to attend the 'Gas Cooking Days,
regardless of whether they are now
usera of gas ranges." Mr. York stated
today. The cooking demonstration
will launch an extensive drive to
familiarize southern Oregon house
wives with the numerous sdvantages
nf cooklnc with rs.
Several new fighters will make
their appearance Thursday evening
when the second card In the new
Elks-CCC series is staged at the Elks'
Temple,
Anton Karaus, 160, Prescott. who I
has been training in Johnny RosdU's
Roxy Ann stables, will make his
debut against the slightly erratic Mr.
Wild Man Simmons, of Headquarters
Detachment, in one highly promising
event.
Karaus Is said to lean towards the
back-alley school of fisticuffs and
will depend on rugged nees rather
than polish to give him a win. Sim
mons, on the other hand, has decid
ed to climax his fighting career with
a knockout victory I Although he is
said to have knocked himself out by
hitting his chin on the canvas when
one of his wild swings missed fire.
Simmons has yet to feel the warm
glow of satisfaction a fighter experi
ences when his opponent bites the
dust. It will be Anton's misfortune
to encounter Simmons in this vici
ous mood.
Chester Tracy, 135, prescott, who
won by a technical knockout recent
ly over the highly touted Jhnny
Walker of South Fork, will meet Joe
Luohesi, 137. Oregon Caves, in a
match that should provide plenty of
action. Luchesi is a dependable per
former while Tracy has indications
of developing into a, big favorite
here.
Eddie Metz, 133, Detachment, will
meet John Dean, 131, Prescott, in a
bout that will bring together a pair
of willing but inexperienced boys.
Metz has been anxious for a bout
and has been training religiously at
the fairgrounds.
The main event, previously i
nounced. will bring together Robert
Barth, 180. Steamboat, and John
Dutcher, 180. Wimer, in the first
heavyweight bout the district has
seen in months. The two met be
fore in an exhibition and after tast
ing each other's leather expressed (
desire to mix in a serious bout.
John Rosdil, 118, Prescott, and
Nat Lombardo, 118, Oregon Caves,
will meet in another installment of
their continued battle that hasn't
yet been settled to everybody's satis
faction. Homer Butcher, 150. Steamboat,
will meet Russ Blacksmith, 152,
Wlmer, In a bout that will bring to
gether two tough, sturdy boxers.
The card will follow the election
of officers at the regular lodge meet
ing. Friends of Elks, as well as Elks
themselves, are invited.
Reversing an earlier decision to
hold back on spring football for an
other month. Coach Bill Bowerman
of the senior high school announced
today that, in view of the excellent
weather now prevailing, spring foot
ball will get under way next Monday.
The grid sport will not be strenu
ous, only light drill being Indulged
In for most of the season. Passing,
backfleld work and line fundamentals
will be stressed, the coach said. Since
football will have to be wedged in
between track and baseball, it is
probable that there will be no scrim
mage at all.
Russ Achison. Junior high school
coach, will bring his entire squad to
the senior high field, giving the Jun
iors the chance to learn the funda
mentals along with their older broth
ers. Achison, himself an outstanding
kicker while In college at Oregon
State, will utor the men on punting
and will als otake charge of the pass
ing Instructions.
Backfleld Coach Ed Klrtley' wilt
drill his charges on the pivot, kick-
over,, spin, cutback and otner intri
cacies of the backfleld art of return
ing the ball as far as possible, while
Bowerman will take over the line
duties. Included in the spring train
ing will be the use of the open for
mation, with Bowerman himself In
charge.
Prospects for a good grid season
next year are bright, with tne oniy
key men lost from last year's state
championship team being big Bob
Smith from the halfback post, ana
Stan Kunzman , veteran wl ngman
Part of the duties of the spring ses
sion will be the finding of men to
reolace these two stars, Bowerman
said.
