MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, MONDAY. JUNE 10, 1940.
Ernie Piluso, Don Sugai Trade Clean Tactics on Mat Card Tonight
BOTH GRAPPLERS
IN GREAT SHAPE;
Panther and Clemens in
Middle Event Parks and
Mehalikis to Open Show
The scientific grapple battle
of the year takei place In the
armory tonight when Ernie Pit-
uao of Portland goes to the post
against Don Sugai, Salem Jap
anese, In the one-hour feature
vent of a three-ply all-cleanie
program.
Both matmen are In excellent
shape for their titanic struggle,
and both are bubbling over with
confidence. Piluso figures on
onnenberglng Sugai into obllv
Ion far short of the 60-minutc
time limit. On the other hand,
Sugai believes he can pin Piluso
with any one of a wide variety
of legitimate maneuvers.
Tonight's bout will bring to
gether two of the cleverest,
speediest and most colorful
muscle-maulers ever to step
foot inside a southern Oregon
ting. Piluso, featuring a well
rounded attack that Includes
tonnenbergs, flying tackles,
dropkicks and all the known
leg and arm maneuvers, will
enter the fray a slight favorite
to whip his dark-skinned oppon
ent Jap Has Backers
However, Sugai has his quota
ef backers and there are many
persona who believe that Piluso
will be unable to defend him
self against the Jiu Jitsu sleeper
and other pet Sugai tactics. Su
gai. doubtless, boasts as many
potent holds as does Piluso, but
whether his attack has the
hocking power of the Italian's
is questionable.
It is because of that superior
Jolting, stunning offensive that
Piluso is certain of victory. He
feels sure that Sugai won't be
able to stand up against tor
pedo' shots to the midsection.
despite his admitted cleverness
and stamina. Piluso honestly be
lieves he will finish Sugai in
side 30 minutes, though he is
not underestimating the Jap's
capability.
Panther Wants Win
The Black Panther, defeated
by Piluso last Monday, will be
gunning to get back on the vic
tory trail when he meets
Frankie Clemens In the middle
event. Until Ernie pinned the
Panther twice without loss of
a fall, the latter was unbeaten
here, and he has been told by
Promoter Mack Lillard that a
win tonight will put him back
on top billing.
Clemens has enjoyed a good
rest the past week while wait
ing for a bou to heal and fig
ures to provide plenty of com
petition for the colored boy.
Herb Parks, popular Canad
ian and Prince Sclaki Mehali
kis, well-liked Arabian, open
the program. Like the main
vent, both preliminary matches
will be, or should be, clean as
a whistle.

Les Anderson Ready for Starter's Flag
, t ? ? ? J vr
I
One of the nationally-famous midget auto pilots who will compete en Tuesday night's
raee program at the new fairgrounds baseball park is Les (Death Takes a Holiday) Ander
son (above), of Oakland. Cal. Anderson is shown in his Riverside Special, In front of a
Ward tire display. Members ef Ward's Riverside pit crew are. left to right: Herby Koerner.
Bob Young. Dick Fanger and Lyle Schoppert. Anderson, one ef the best midget pilots In
the business. Is one of the fav-orites to cop the 35-lap reverse handicap feature event.
REVERSE HANDICAP
EVENT SCHEDULED
FOR MIDGET CARS
"Although the drivers ren't
especially keen about it. the fans
are, and that's why we are going
to make the main event a re
verse handicap affair Tuesday
night."
Such Is the latest message
from Bobby Rowe of Portland
regarding the big midget auto
race program at the new fair
grounds baseball field Tuesday
evening, starting at 7:30.
Rowe wrote to explain that
the faster cars would start In
the back rows and the slower
machines in front, Just reversing
the positions of regular main
events. While the pilots don't
exactly relish such a situation
because it means more hand-to-
hand battling on the curves and
straightaways as the speedier
"doodle-bugs" strive to eliminate
the handicaps given the slower
cars, Rowe explained that tt was
terrific stuff for the patrons.
' "Without doubt the reverse
handicap is the most thrilling
spectacle in the racing game,
Rowe wrote. "It gives all cars
an almost equal chance to win
and the) result of those little
power Jobs fighting for the lead
ership is something to behold.
We'll trv it Tuesday night and
if there aren't too many serious
crackups we may stage some
more of the same in other pro
grams to follow.
The reverse handicap main
event is slated for 33 laps, and
Rowe expects at least IS cars
to answer the starters gun. There
will be 17 machines ail told on
the program, including five
midgets driven by local pilots.
Time trials are slated to start
at 7:30. and these will be fol
lowed by a trophy dash and six
heat races. There will also be a
class B main event run In regu
lar fashion for machines slightly
slower than the fastest.

LITTLE DEFEATS
SARAZEN, 70-73
IN OPEN PLAYOFF
New Champion Wins First
Two Holes and Is Never
Headed; Gene Outclassed
By Earl KUliaan.
Cleveland, June 10. (P)
There waa little room today
for questioning burly Lawson
Little's rank as one of the great
golfers of the day and Gene
Sarazen'i right to a place In
the game's hall of fame.
The 30-year-old Little, profes
sional at Bretton Woods, N. H.,
held the open crown for the
44th national championship by
virtue of a 70-73 playoff victory
yesterday over the doughty Sar
azen at Canterbury Golf club.
His defeat of the bronzed vet
eran who twice had won the
event, refuted those who long
had claimed that Little, winner
of the American and British
amateur titlea in 1934 and 1935,
never would reach the top as
a medal play star.
Out In 34.
Little had the upper hand
in the playoff and showed as
much heart winning the crown
as Sarazen displayed in tying
for the lead Saturday. - He went
out in 34 and came home in
38 for a two-under-par 70 as
Sarazen took a 37-36 73. Lit
tle won the first two holes and
from then on he was in con
trol as he outslugged the 38-year-old
campaigner from tee
to green.
But back of Little's playoff
victory lay a Saturday which
will be long remembered. It
was a day climaxed by Sara
zen'i amazing stretch finish for
a deadlock at 287 over 72 holes
as a 23-year-old youth sat heart
broken in the clubhouse him
self possessor of a 287 score and
a message from tournament of
ficials he had been disqualified
for starting ahead of schedule.
The youth was Ed (Porky)
Oliver of Hornell, N. Y. He
had a fine one under par 71 on
his final round, but it was
thrown out as he and five
other over-anxious competitors
were disqualified.

Limit catches are now a daily
occurrence, Mr. Howard said.
Although troutereno and Dave
Davis spinners -with worms ars

results are being chalked up
with Andy Reeker and othei
lures. In the evening, anglen
are getting good results from
fly fishing through the use of
several different types of buck
tails. Largest fish caught at Dia
