GRAPPLE IN MAIN
EVENT OF CARD
Fete Belcastro, Pacific const Jun

meets one of the severest tests of
bis career tonight when he clashes
with Prince Bltlkl Ibn All Hassan

Armory. The flashy Italian has been
In rigid training In Klamath county
In preparation for a struggle he
admits will be gruelling.
The champion's new rope swing
and back-drop, his giant swing.
Mexican death lock, flying mares,
drop kloka and flying tackles will
be pitted against the Arabian's two
man-klllers. the camel lock and the
dragon scissors, two complicated
paralysers which have brought him
victory In every match here. With
each man rattd as one of the clev
erest on the coast, and both as fast
as a middleweight, the match Is ex
pected to be one of the best seen
here In months.
Prince Mlhalakls has demanoea
that Belcastro post his title belt
for the fray, but his demand has
borne no fruit.
The middle main event pits George
"Wildcat" Wilson, alt-American foot.
ball ace from the University of
Washington, and Prankle Peck, head
lock artist from San Francisco and
Medford. The two have met before.
Wilson taking the nod when he
knocked Peck kicking with a Bon
nenberg. The ex-Washington star Is
rated as one of the hardeat hitting
men In the ring, and .Peck, having
onoa been the victim of the attack,
has promised to keep out of the Una
of flight tonight and wear his op
ponent down with headlocks.
The opener brlnga together Danny
Savlch, also an all-Amertcan foot
ball star, from Utah, and Prank Tay
lor. Ohio State athlete. Bavlch won
with Sonnenbergs last week, taking
the flret and third falls. In previous
matches here he depended on the
flying tackles, but also displayed a
wealth of other holds.
Promoter Mack Llltard has de
scribed the matches aa among the
best he has promoted here, and
antlclpatea one of the largest crowda
of the year. Attendance took a leap
last week, with the coming of good
weather, and Llllard states that that
record will be shattered easily to
night. Advance ticket aales have
been far ahead of last week.

Trying to get an stlmi.t of how
many people were at yesterday's boat
racea at Emigrant lake waa like try-
lng to count the ante on a picnic
lunch. Not that there was such
tremendous gathering, but they kept
moving around and were scattered
over such a substantial area that
they were practically Impossible to
count. We did, however, determine
the fact that M cars were parked
along the roadway off the pavement.
Whether they paid or not we don't
know, but have a suspicion they
watched the races free from there,
Tak, tsk.
The races were good, particu
larly since no races have been
held In this part of the state for
such a long time. There's some
thing about the high whine of
one of those dinky motors that
Is really thrilling. We wouldn't
care abont seeing any more boat
races for a while, but are glad we
saw these.
Odds and ends: Danny Savle, all-
American guard from the University
of Utah, came from a town about
the size of Medford and thinks small
tows are preferable to the cities. Sa
vlch weighed 160 pounda when he
got out of college and now tips the
Fairbanks at 190. The motor with
which Heinle Fluhrer raced yester
day, until It klunked out with a
burned piston, la a special racing Job
which Bud Hayes brought back from
the factory in the east, In Its first
race, the boat, and Henle, got thor
oughly dunked In Devil's lake, wher
ever that la. It Is our personal opin
ion that Parker Bundy, skippering
a class A hydroplane, did some of
the best driving of the day yester
day, and had he had a faster boat
would have won all his races. He
waa sloughing along the turns with
only inches to spare and losing very
little time on the corners, but would
lose his advantage down the straight
stretch.
We've been Into Frank Menke's
All Sports Record Book again (the
one that olalmed a guy on a bicycle
rode 78 miles, 603 yards In one hour
flat, (paced by .motorcycles) and now
discover the alarming fact that the
world la struggling along without a
face slapping champion. Mtchalko
OonlusK and Woayi Bezeborodny, of
Kiev, Russia, decided to get together
here a while baok and alap each
other silly, the first one to get tired
of the pasting In the puss to yell
uncle (we must write to Al Karaslck
and find out how to say uncle In
Russian). After 30 hours of good
steady pounding, they declared the
matchkl a drawovltch and went on
home and went to bed, the big ba
bies. There la no Ice sitting champion,
either. At White City Casino In Chl-

No Ladies will be

for buying Chintz!
HERE'S a funny little item about sales-tax troubles 160
years ago in London.
To protect the English weavers of linen and wool,
cotton chintz was stiffly taxed, and the Lord Mayor
was "shocked and grieved" to see three gentlewomen
walking in St. James Park on Sunday dressed in chintz
gowns. On Monday morning, the three ladies were
haled into court but all promptly paid their fines . . .
because chintz was so pretty and so cool !
It still is. Crisp little dot and flower chintz for warm
weather frocks. Red-rambler-rose chintz for summer
bedrooms. Chintz slip-covers for dining-room chairs.
Chintz blinds when you take the winter draperies down.
Right now is the time to do your chintz-choosing. Or

TRIO OF PILOTS
TAKE CREAM OF
REGATTA PURSE
A crowd estimated at approximate
ly 6000 yesterday afternoon swarmed
to the Emigrant lake racing regatta
sponsored by the 20-30 club of Med
ford, and saw most of the day's $470
In prize money go to three drivers-
Ward Angllley of Maryevllle. Calif.:
Ernie Mlllot of Stockton and Latham
Ooble of Seattle.
Heine Fluhrer, Medford sportsman
who entered his "Black Friday" on
the last day of entry, was dogged by
bad luck and after getting away to a
poor atari In the claas O hydro event
burned a cylinder In his fast motor
as he tried to overhaul the leaders by
alammlng Into the south turn wide
open. Hla boat waa out for the day.
Parker Bundy, the only other Med
ford entrant, finished second In the
class A hydro event, flret heat, be
hind a wildly driving young lady,
Dorothy. Dennle of Seattle. Mlsa
Dennis was mounted In a faster boat,
although Bundy picked up distance
on nearly every turn. Hla boat fal
tered and quit cold In the second
heat and he was forced Into third
place In the event. Miss Dennis won
both races. ,
The fastest time of the day was
turned In by Val Plue of Portland In
his 0 hydro "Stymie", when he nego
tiated the five mile course In 8 min
utes, 47 seconds. Next fastest time
was made by Angllley In his "Lolly
pop" In a minutes, 49 seconds, In the
F hydro class.
One of the biggest thrills of the
day was In the first hsat of the F
hydro race, ooble, in bis fleet "Fly
ing Oyster" was leading the pack
by a quarter of a lap, hla quad mo
tor hitting so beautifully that he was
still drawing away at that distance.
Anxious to make the raos closer he
missed a south end buoy on purpose,
Clroled behind the other boats, and
then rapidly overhauled them and
sped Into the lead again only to have
his motor balk. He finished In third
