rsOT5 FOUR arapFORD frfArr; trtbttnt;, medforp. orego. ttjesdat. October 20. 1936 - o-r: SUBDUES WOLFE IN GRAPPLING FILE It took several raonthi, but Lea Wolf finally ran Into the whistling right-hand punch that fam have been anxtouly awaiting. The punch was delivered by Jimmy Ooodrlch at t'na Armory laat night, and packed enough ateam to put the rufflaa eway for the count In their main event grapple After the two eurvlved oa wild a battle royal as one could Imagine. As In a three-ring circus, few of the fans In the packed houae could watch everything that went on In the opening melee, with Pete Bolcaa. tro, Billy Burns, Gene Moore and Jos Kubka as well as Wolfe and Ooodrlch In the ring at the start. At the gong they all seemed undecided as to what to do, each eyolng an oppo nent somewhat doubtfully. Goodrich made the first break and stslked out of his corner at Wolfe, standing mid way between posts on the far side of the ring. Moore, atandlng In the corner, took a punch at Ooodrlch as ha went by and .then -went on to tangle with Belcaatro. while Hubka chose big Burns. Belcastro. believing that forewarn ed la forearmed, dived outside the ring after an Initial aklrmlsb w.th Moore, and Moore turned hla atten tion to the wrestlers remaining In arena, while Belcastro sidled around ths apron of the ring. That seemed the most promising position of all, far as the others milled to the ropes Belcastro stood outside like an oxo cutloner and whanged, walloped and punched their hoods with vigor. Teamwork was noticeably absent. One grnppler would truss up an other for a sonnonberg to be deliv ered by a third, and a fourth would aneak around and . floor the trusser with a ringing smack behind the ear. Bums was the first out, the victim of a combined assault by Ooodrlch, Hubka and Wolfe, while Belcastro and Moore wars Joyously thumping eaoh other In a far corner where Ref eree Swede Anderson waa trying to pry them apart. Moore waa next out as Ooodrlch, Hubka and Wolfe piled him, with Belcastro mnklng running broadjumps onto the pile and then running for the ropes. With Moore out of the way the re maining three dlroctcd their atten tion to the Italian, still outside the ring. Hubka launched a foray out- aide after him and as the two ran around the apron those Inside took occasional kicks at them for good luck. Bclcastdo finally decided to tempt fate and try to lick all of them, but was finally pinned beneath a wriggling mass of men shortly sfler With one odd man left In the war, Ooodrlch and Wolfo ganged Hubka and sent him to the showers Just five minutes after the wild battle had started. Moore and Burns, the first two out, returned to wrestle the opener, with Burns kicking, biting and alugitlng. Onro Moore bit hla finger and he squawked loudly to the referee, only to have Moore aneak up behind him and dropklck him on the back of the neck. Burns survived that but wis disqualified by Hay Friable a few moments later when he kicked low to put Moore groveling on the mat. The bout lasted nine and a halt minutes. The Bclcaatro-Hubka match waa a near riot, with Swede Anderson mak ing hit with the crowd for at least attempting to break up dirty attacks hy Belcastro. Early In the match Hubka atartcd slapping hla hands down over Belcastro'a face, and the Italian launched a aeries of drcpklcka and aonnenbergs that missed their marka consistently as Hubka dived out of the way of each. Finally, aa Hubka was bounding off the ropes Belcastro hit him with a shoulder butt that Jarred ths whole building, and the Jolting sobered both men REMEMBER STARTS TODAY Suits valued at $35.00 This Week Only $2195 KLEIR THE TAILOR 128 E.

Lewis Is known as the moat deceptive gal toper on the squad, with a flair for blocking and tackling, and fans are wondering what spot he will fill when he re turns to harness, as he tecma likely to do for the Klamath Falls game two weeks away. Coaches Bowerman, Klrtley and Pinch wlU find It diffi cult to lose the advantage Olsen 'a kicking and passing give, and yet they can hardly afford to keep the whirling dervish, Lewis, on the bench The rest of tne Dacxfieia win oe ju&t as difficult to orack.

Bel castro took the match with a tunnel back-over flip from the ropes In 17 minutes, and left the ring amid a shower of lemon drops from two Irahe ladles In the gallery. The final bout between Wolfe and Goodrich waa a brutal exhibition, with Wolfo abandoning the few scru ples he seemed to have left, and kneeing, slugging and elbowing his opponent In the groin consistently, without much dissent from Referee Friable, Several times It looked as though Wolfe's eye-gouging and simi lar tAotlcs would be too much for the ex -Notre Dame footballer, but on each occasion he managed to break loose. Once he picked Wolfe up in his arms and lammed him In a sit ting position so hard to the mat that Wolfo could hardly walk until after recovering outside the ring. The end came In 18 minutes. Wolfe had again kicked Goodrich In the groin, and the atocky gridiron star waa groaning In a comer, Friable pro tecting him from Wolfe's aaaault. But when Wolfe backed awny and started a running lunge Goodrich pushed Friable aside and met Wolfe's ohln with a or ashing smaah that sent htm sprawling over onto his back through the air. Goodrich dived on for a body press as the crowd yelled Itself honrae. RUGPNB. Ore.. Oct. 20. (AP) The charge that the Oregon We Moot played a dull, Ustleas game In win ning from Idaho fell on unheeding ears today as Coach "Prink" Calllson got ready for the first home stand of the season Saturday against the undefeated Washington Btate Cougars. Close followers of the team said the WVbfoots played deliberately gainst the Vandals In sn effort to hide their strength from Cougar scouts. Naturally, there won't be any holding back" In the tussle with Washington State. Calllson said he considered his squad making rapid progress and would be at Its peak far the first meeting with the Cougars In ten years. HUBBELL MOST VALUABLE NATIONAL LEAGUE PLAYER OLEVELAND, Oct. 20. (fl) Carl Owen Hubbell, the lanky left-hander who halls from Meeker, Okla., but does his pltohlng for tho New York Qlants, today brought New York a monopoly on baseball's "most valu able player" awards for 1936 to fol low up tho "subways" world scries. Hubbel! was unanimously chosen as the most valuable player In the National league. Lou Gehrig, iron man flrat-baneman of che Yankeos. was named the American league's most valuable performer last week. The "screw ball" aco, hailed during the season as the Giants' "one-mar. pitching staff," became the second player In National league history to win the award twice. In 1033. when the Olanta also won the pennant largely because of Jlubbcli's flinging. "King Carl" was named aa tho most valuable player. Rogers Hornsby, now manager of the Bt. Louis Browns, rccolved tho award, when It was made by tho league,- on two occasions. tHe was named In 1038 aa a member of the St. Louis Cardinals, and In 1029 with the Chicago Cubs. Tho 33-ycer-olrt Hubbell had only one serious rival In the voting, by a committee representing the Baseball Wrltora' association of America. That waa Jorome Herman "Dizzy" Dean of the Cardinals, tho only other pitcher over to take the award, Hubbell waa the unanimous first choice of the six writers who cast their votes. Counting on the basis of ton poLnta for a first-place vote, nine tor second, etc, Hubbell received 60 points and Dean 03. Third place In the voting went to Billy Herman of the Cubs with 37. fourth to Joe Medwlck of the Cnrds with 30. fifth to Paul Wa ller of Pittsburgh with HO, and sixth to Mel Ott of the Olanta with 28.

Mining Man Takes Issue With A. C. Burke Regarding Effect Of Corporate Surplus Tax (Ed. Note: A local citizen, for many ycara lnterestad In mining and business, baa written the following answer to Mr. A. C. Burch, who recently criticized the administration's corporate surplus tax, as a de terrent to the development of mining In this country. In the opinion of the writer, this tax will do the exact reverse, and more than that, benefit the small business man and stockholder, everywhere). Mr. Albert Burch, In his letter to the editor of October 15, 1936, criticized a law which was passed by the Roosevelt administration, and which taxes undistributed profits of corporations. Mr. Burch is a man learned In his mining profession, and big enough not to object to our talc Ing Issue with his conoluBlons. Re thinks that a "law taxing the undistributed profits of mining cor porations" will prevent such corpor ations from carrying a surplus, and therefore, prevent them from using their "current earnings for the ac quisition of new mines." In other words, the new law will cause these corporations to distribute In divi dends their earnings as made. Then will this money not be distributed dividends to the companies' stockholders? What will they do with it, will they not seek mining invest ments because they have made this money from mines? Will It not stim ulate the mining Industry? What happened under the old law was this: They held these profits in a sur plus account. Some carried millions of dollars over periods of years in such surplus accounts, but they Is sued stock dividends of new stock to those who would have received the cash dividends. They did this because the supreme court of the United States had held that stock dividends were not taxable as Income. Therefore, they got the benefit of these stock dividend! without pay ing any income tax thereon. But the money represented thereby was in the surplus. Tf and when It should be distributed as dividends they would only pay on the amounts so received, and still have the capital stock which had been Iwued for the rfoek dividends, and would never have to pay any Income tax on that stock, unless they sold It. Mr. Burch's dealings have been wIWi the lsrtre mining corporations. The former policy of allowing these earnings to escape taxation was wrong. If It had been invested In a building, the building would navo been subject to taxation: being money It ought to be subject to tax-ntlon. The old system resulted In a few big operators controlling their own particular-branch of the mining Industry. Take the Blue 1dgo for example More than n million dollars wna ex pended by Mr. Towne In the devel opment of that property. It is at our door. Whether or not It should be worked might depend on the prlco of copper. But when Mr. Towne died before the property waa oper ated, the property was sold to the Guggenheim, who controlled and still control the copper Industry in America. They put the title to the property in the name of a private Individual. It remained In that con dition and deteriorated long enough to make Inspection of this underground development work practically Im possible. Then It was offered for sale for the small sum of $20,000. Some of the corporations operated Imllarly In the dredging mining In dustry. Some of these companies casually examined properties and: turned them down, leaving them for! future acquisition. So that when we 1 have a field dominated by class of Investors, the development depends too much upon the will of the class and their particular intcrrsts. How does this act an eat corpor ations other than those engaged In mining? They keep these large amounts of money for which 'they have not paid any Income tax In cold storage, as It were, and away from stockholders who are entitled to their share thereof, and who often times sorely need this money that could be so distributed. Many dis pose of their stock which they would have been able to have held, If they had received the dividends which could have been properly distributed to ;them. And so those in the cor porate management use these sur pluses as they desire. Some of them use It to oppress labor, and create a very unequal struggle. But independent of these matters. It seems to Ua that the mining In dustry would be stimulated and new properties developed as result of the distribution of mining dividends. Instead of boarding tahem. It seems to ua that nothing could so stim ulate prospecting and legitimate de velopment, aa the distribution of mining profits legitimately earned In the mining business.

E PLANTS, OFFICES (Continued from Page One.) Ing distance of Madrid, As the workers fell In step with the capital's militia reserves, a .-hlftlng wind carried the sound of cannonad ing plainly into the city from the hllle on the west and plains to the south. On both fronts, the Fascists were well within a 30 mile radius of Ma drid. The ominous echoes aroused the populace. Plumbers and stesmflttera march ed beside storekeepers and white-collared accountants. The women, ahoutlng themselves hoarse, ran madly pasrt, hunting ne recruits.
