TUESDAY, 'AUGUST 10, 1937.v- MAT BATTLE t Sammy Kohen of New York Olty and Prankle Clemen of Oklahoma, two of Promoter Mack Ullard'a Tery toughest grapplers. went 00 beetle jnlnutc In the main event at the high school arena last night and when It waa all aald and done, the boy ataagered to their corner with honor even. Each grabbed one fail In the ding-dong battle. Toots Efctes returned after a long absence to surprise villainous Jack La Rue in two straight tumbles In the middle event and Danny Savlch foul ed his way to an unpopular win over Curio Rodrlguex In the opening squabble. ' The Kohen -Clemens dog-fight, which was previously llgured by ad dicts to be not so hot, turned out to be one of the wannest affairs wit nessed here In many moons. It was the first match In a long time that went the entire time limit, and the two received an ovation as they drooped their way to the dressing room, both considerably the worse for wear. Kohen, mixing foul tactic with really great grappling, manufactured the first tumble after over 44 min utes of strenuous work on the part of both boys. Clemens cut loose with three sonnenberg'a the last of which missed fire, and the New York Jaw promptly alapped on his painful leg breaker to get Referee Toy Aho'a nod. Until that point, It was all Kohen, and he deserved the fall. For fully 35 minutes he applied the pressure on a pinching head lock, a maneuver that forced Clemens on the defensive at all times. The Indian, still befuddled, hop ped on hi bicycle until his head cleared and then roared off the ropes to win the second fall in 8:03. He won It with what he termed the In dian Bow-Knot, one of the most pe culiar holds ever displayed here. He grabbed K oh en's hands, pulled his arms through his legs, and stood him on his shoulder blade. Helplejs si a baby. Kohen couldn't make a move to break the hold. In the remaining seven minutes of wrestling time, both hoya tried des perately to take the deciding rail, but both were too tired to do much damage. Only threo tlmea aid Clemen at tempt to use his fomoua Indian par alyser, and only once did he really clamp It on tho .Jew. However, Kohen managed to break loose and hit for the ropea. Tlie othfli two tlmea, Kohen squirmed for the strands at the first ai'n of what was coming. Toots Entes, lashter and appar ently a uottcr wrestler than ever, used sor.nenborg'A In the third round to pin La Rue and ended the match in the fourth frame with sonnen berg's and a rebounding scissors. It waj a tough, dirty match, with La Rue pulling everything In the book In an attempt to clamp on hla effec tive hammer lock. Ho did Just once but Toots managed to wriggle out. Danny Snvlch beat Carlos Rodri guez. Mexico's "hot tamale." In the third round with a well-aimed clout to the button, a blow that knocked the Mexican to the floor outalde the ring and Also, unconscious. Savlch waa given tho first fall In the second round after applying a figure eight leg-breaker, but Heforee Aho reversed his decision when the dirty Danny refUM'd to brenk the hold, and award ed the tumble to Rodrtguea on a foul. Ending the match, Savlch grabbed Rodriguez by the hair and hurled i him through the rope. The Mexican j landed on hla head outside the ring and Just managed to rigger back at ' the count of 1H. Agoln Savlch heaved the "hot tamnle" outside the arena nd ARain Rodrlguet attempted to climb back In. Aa he waa about to throw a leg through the strands and continue. Snvlch let fly a right-foot kick that landed flush on the Hod tiguea chin, catapulted him to the feet of ilivisldtirn, and wound up pro ceedings. Itndrlguee waa out so cold that 10 minutes Inter ho had to be carried to the dressing room. 9 ir ; f - , V'' 11 . Y CATCHING AT DIAMOND LAKE DIAMOND LAK, Auj. 10. (BrA.)

Pluhrers vs. Office Boys, Plche vs. Catholic Men. HUMBS vs. Lamport. Commercial Softball leagues most crucial battle will take place tonight at 7:45 when Tlmbjr Products, un defeated this season, tangles with Jennings Tire company. The Timber men, who have belted out 13 straight wins, are leading the sccond-nall pennant chase with four wins, while Jennings, runners-up tho first-halt, are right behind with three victories and one loss. A Jennings win will tie up the race. Earl Dale, scnsatlonsl "wind-mill" pitcher from armies pass has been signed by Timber Products and will probably work on the mound against the Tlremen.

Batty of Los Angeles reported hooking a 7-pound rainbow on a fly. Stream fishing In Lake creek and the North Umpqua remain good witn liy. Roads to both are in good conaition. Many from San Francisco and Los Angeles, who form what has become almost a permanent summer colony at Diamond Lake, are back renewing oia aoquaintancea and fishing part nerships this month. Some are re turning for their eighth year at the resort. H. A. Strong, vice-president of Electrolut, Inc., accompanied by his two brothers and families from Cleve land, Ohio, were registered over the week-end. Oregon officials of Elec- trolui accompanying Mr. Strong were Erland Orotn, northwest divisional mansger, Portland; O. A. Olson, manager, Eugene, and Clyde O'Neal of Klamath Palls. While here Mr. Oleon made arrangements with the forest service to hold a picnic at the south end of the lake for all em ployees in his territory. tumn, the more W4 wonder and mar vel at ths cuprente confidence of the lanky mentor. Fared with the task of rebuilding almost an entire Hue wrecked by graduation, Bowsrman, nevertheless, went r.gbt out and got himself the toughest schedule ever faced by a local aggregation, or any southern Oregon high school. There la no doubt but that Bower- man, disregarding the seemingly Im possible Job of . manufacturing a tup eleven, la t hooting for the state cham pionship, official, mythical or what have you. If the Tigers get over Eu gene, Hood River, fiend and Klamath Falls, there will remain no doubt as to Oregoa's best nih school football team outside Portland. Those teams represent the cream of every section In the stite. If they are all Beaten Oregon's prep plgekin championship will be undlsputedly awarded to Mod rford. There Just won't be anything left to do but hand the Tigers the honors. FOR NATIONAL FLAG Hitless Wonder Now a Graduate CHICAGO. Aug. 10.

UPPER RIVER BEST FOR FLY FISHING Ply fishing In Rogue river, except on the upper forks and tributaries. has been only mediocre the paat week, according to a report from Joe Wharton of GranU Pass. Prom Trail on down, some fair catches have been made with crawfish and spinners, but fly angling has been almost negli gible. Below Savage Rapids dam, where nearly a third of the normal flow of the river la diverted Into Irrigation ditches, the water la extremely low and warm. There la an overabund ance of natural food which makes the fish disinterested In artificial stuff. Fishing at Diamond Lake haa shown considerable improvement the past few weeks, reports from' the lake state, and good catches have been made with baltd tandem spinners and trouterlnos. Ply fishing la also exceptionally good in all mountain streams. SEALS GIVE K. F. KLAMATH PALLS. Aug. 10. IAP) San Franc t scos Seals, en route north for Coast league aeries with Portland and Seattle, stopped off here long enough yesterday to ad minister a 13-1 beating to the Klam ath Rod Sox, local members of the Northern California league. , The Box went scoreleaa until the eighth Inning, when Walter Malla. league pitching great, took a turn on the mound and allowed two hits which produced the single run. The seals collected 18 hlte off two Red Sox hu rlers, spreading their 13 runs over six of the eight Innings played. On naper. It appears that If Medford goes through undefeat ed, nothing leu than a major miracle will have occurred. In addition to the above named out fits, there will remain the not -so-small '-ask of licking Orants Pass, Rose burg and Atuland, and any one who doesn't figure the lat ter emlimgilo mil prove plent tough nad better look up the rec ord of Ashland-Medford squab bles In years ptut. In fact, the Grizzlies may turn out to be MedfoM's Hharpe! thorn. But back to Bowerman and hla dis regard of the sma.i matter of pro duclng a new forward wall, there must be an ace or two up the head man's aleeve. Wo can't w how any football coach In hla right mind could alat- a series of games like Bowerman has done untesu he ha-i some surprises In store for the boys. Hill frankly admits that his hue is shot and that the new one will be green as the turf It ca vorts upon. It .'it doesn't seem natural that Uowcrmnn. or any coach, would lake on a "killer" sched ule such as that arranged for the IwhIs without having something to lake It on wtth Hill arranged the schedule himself, did all the negotiating, and look rare of the entire tuslness. And when It was completed, he mis as happy as a kid with pajtse to the circus. There ;iit be a reason for his frame 'if mind; there has to be.
