Boiler Bay Next Standard Photo Few people know the number of state parks which dot the Oregon coast, and few realize that so many of the real beauty spots along the coast have been taken into the state park system and thus preserved for public use. Two Oregonians, closely identified with the develop ment of the state park system, are Sam Boardman. Superintendent of slate parks, (right) and Ray Conway, manager of the Oregon State Motor Association. Both Boardman and Conway are enthusiastic about the natural color photograph of Boiler Bay state park which Standard Oil Company has elected as the fourth in its series of pictures of Oregon beauty spots. Full color prints of this Boiler Bay picture will be given away at Standard Stations and by Standard Oil dealers beginning Monday, September 5. Boiler Bay state park is located about twelve miles south of Taft near Depoe Bay. Its name is said to derive from the fact that a huge marine boiler from a wrecked steamer has been a landmark in the bay for many years. The Oregon state park system was created by legislative enactment in 1929. There are now 130 parks in the system. The parks are administered by a commission which serves without pay and which is appointed by the governor. u FOR TITLE GAMES Negotiations were atlll being car ried on today between officials of the Medford and Crescent City baseball teams regarding the location of the first game of their three-game aeries for the Southern Oregon league pen nant.

Pete's younger brother and his second, had been carted from the armory by olty policemen while the crowd went nuts. The big ex-logger sent Belcastro to the floor three times In the sec ond round before clouting nun on the chin with a wild, round-house right. Pete dropped to his knees and waa counted out by Toakley. and then the fun started. Por no ap parent reason, Tom Belcastro, one of Pete's seven brothers, leaped In the ring and started arguing with the referee. After a few hot words the pslr started swinging rights and lefts, snd the super, colossal squab ble waa on In earnest.

In the second canto they both forgot they were supposed to box. and atarted wrestling. Pete applied a headjock to Sockeye and worked him over with his free hand, and McDonald retaliated by giving Pete several body slams. It was In this round that Yoakley took his beating. Pete belt Ing the ref on the button time after time when the latter attempted to keep order In the ring. McDonald threw his knockout punch Imme diately after Yoakley had managed to break up a ellnch. The entire program was one of the best seen here. In the middle wrestling event, Jusn Sebastlsn beat tha villainous'-Ken Mollis by taking falls In the third and fourth rounds with a flying head scissors and a body slam, after Rollls won the first tumble In the second with- a body slam.
