WIN NCAA TITLE:
FOR SIXTH TIME
Stanford Squad Second
Track Soaked by Rains-
New Records Set.
Minneapolis June 22. (IP)
Southern California'! mighty
Trojans handed the field and
the element! a thoroufh licking
today to aweep to their alxth
atraight national collegiate track
and field ehampionihip.
Under the wont weather con
ditlons In the meet'a IB-year
hiatory, Southern California
piled up 44 polntf to turn back
the challenge of Stanford, lee
ond place team finisher. In a
meet which saw the establish
ment of new N. C. A. A. marks
in the shot put and 120-yard
high hurdles.
Southern California's complete
domination of the team battle
almost was overshadowed by
the day's biggest upset defeat
of Fred Wolcott of Rice Insti
tute In the 120-yard high hurdle
vent. Winner of this event two
atraight years and holder of the
American mark of 13.9 seconds
for this race, Wolcott lost his
crown to big Ed Dugger, negro
star from Tufts.
Running on track soaked
by a long rain which delayed
the start of the races almost
two hours, Dugger stepped over
the highs in 13.0 to clip one
tenth of a second off the meet
record set by Wolcott two years
ago. The Tufts star, charging
up from behind, gained a deci
sion of inches over Wolcott,
whose 13.9 American mark was
made so recently that it has not
yet been entered in the record
books.
Al Blozis, 248-pound sopho
more from Georgetown, contrib
uted the shot put record, tossing
the ball 58 feet, V4 Inch in the
qualifying tests to crack the old
meet and American mark of 55
feet, lOtt Inches.
Southern California scored an
undisputed first in the pole
vault, won by Ken Dills, and tied
'for first place with Michigan
.In the high jump. The Tro
jans showed remarkable bal
ance, placing in eight of the 14
.events.
Stanford's point total was
28 2-3, with California and
Penn State tying at 24 each.
The hectic afternoon, which
saw heavy rain squalls rake the
Minnesota stadium four times
.before the skies finally cleared,
created such confusion at the
.scorers table that it was an hour
after the meet ended before a
corrected point total was finally
announced.
Norwood Ewell, negro star
from Penn State, won both the
.100-yard and 220-yard dash
.titles. He ran the 100 In 9.6
seconds, nosing out Stanford's
Clyde Jeffrey, who did not de
fend his title in the 220 because
of a muscle injury. Ewell won
this race in 21.1, bettering the
listed American mark for 220
yards around one turn, made by
Ralph Metcalfe In 1933.
ZALEJNJULY 19
Seattle, June 22. (IP) Al
Hostak, NBA middleweight
champion, will defend his title
here July 19 over the 15-round
route against Tony Zale, the
tough Gary, Ind., steel worker.
Promoter Nate Druxman an
nounced signing the match to
day after he unsuccessfully
sought to match Hostak with
either Ken Overlin, present
holder of the New York-California
middleweight title, or
Ceferino Garcia, who surren
dered that bauble to Overlin.
Zale holds a non-title decision
over Hostak, defeating the Se
attle Slav in Chicago last win
ter when Hostak cracked his
left fist over Zale's eye in a
10-round Dennybrook.

Cleveland, June 22. (IP)
The rampaging Cleveland In
dians found Boston pitching to
their liking today and rolled
up their seventh straight vic
tory. The 7 to 5 decision gave
Boston its sixth setback in a
row.
The first-place Indians club
bed young Jim Bagby for four
runs In the fourth and scored
three more in the sixth, getting
four hits each inning, to stay
ahead all the way. Mel Harder,
the winning pitcher, was shaky,
however, and required Joe Dob-
son a assistance before a three-
run Red Sox uprising was
quenched in the eighth.
Boston's defeat, coupled with
Detroit's close victory over the
New York Yankees, allowed
the Tigers to slip Into second
place ahead of Boston.

kept the westerners five and a
half games ahead of the fourtn
place Yanks.
The winning rally was made
at the expense of Oral Hilde
brand, who came to the relief
of Spud Chandler as the in
ning opened. Greenberg start
ed the session with a booming
double, went to third on an
infield out and scored on Hig
gins' blow.
Joe Gordon's sixth homer of
the year put the champions
ahead again, but Dick Bartell's
single and Barney McCoskey's
triple tied the score again in

McLean on third, Peterson in
left, Pacheco in center, Calvert
in right and Hawkins catching.
Al Wray, heavy-hitting outfield
er, is still limping with a pulled
leg-muscle, but may get into
the ball game.

negotiations for games with
three of the nation's outstanding
barnstorming nines. The Piney

With more youngsters In key
spots, the Portland Beavers de
feated San Diego, 5-4, today
and took a 1-2 lead in the cur
rent Pacific Coast league series.
Young Joe Orrell blanked
the Pauies in five of the nine
innings and never permitted
more than run per inning.
The Beavers, meanwhile, pro
fited by the wildness of Padre
pitchers Howard Craghead and
Morris.
In the eighth G1U drew a
walk. Rosenberg sacrificed and
Craghead hit Frederick. Catcher
Joe Schultz doubled, driving
home Gill. Morris relieved
Craghead and walked Hawkins
intentionally to fill the bases.

trol and Arland Schwab drew
an unintentional walk which
forced in Frederick. The final,
and what proved the winning
run, scored on Brown's long fly
off Tobin who had relieved
Morris.
Portland got another run
through pitching wildness In
the sixth. With two away Rov

"Bud" Ward, the national ama
teur champion from Spokane
who yesterday won the Pacific
northwest open title for the
second straight year, will at
tempt next week to add the
northwest amateur crown to
his collection.
And if Ward displays the
same torrid brand of golf at
Seattle's Broadmoor Golf club
that he showed in his nine-under-par
271 at the Sand Point
Country club in winning the
open, the curly-haired ex-Olympian
should become the first
amateur since Dr. O. F. Willing

ing did it in 1928.
The amateurs will qualify
over 36 holes Mondav inrl

Cheese parings and

Those who saved them used to be sneered at as stingy.
But why? Even cheese parings and candle ends have
their uses. And hasn't it always been smart to be
thrifty?
Yes. And that's why you ought to read the advertise
ments. A little money saved here and there can make
a whale of a difference by the end of the year!
So whether you want a dress, or a bathing suit, or
anything at all, don't run out and snap up the first thing
you see. Take your time, and save money. Read the
advertisements in this newspaper. It's just like having
a dozen bargain counters lined up beside your arm-chair!
PILUSO TO FIGHT
Ernie Piluso plans to fight fire
with fire, to give Just what he
receives, when he tangles with
Toughie Bob Kenaston of Gold
Hill in Monday night's main
event grappling match in the
Medford armory.
Kenaston, by virtue of some
of the dirtiest mat v. ik ever
witnessed here, defeated the
popular Portlander on last
week's card, and Ernie has
vowed vengeance. "I tried to
wrestle clean but Kenaston
wouldun't have it," Piluso ex
plained, "so tomorrow night he
will get plenty of his own
medicine."
Little hope is held out that
the Gold Hill ruffian will for
sake his vile tactics for a cleaner
brand of wrestling. He was suc
cessful in conquering Piluso via
illegitimate means, and is ex
pected to continue with that
method of battling.
Two clean matmen. Cowboy
Dude Chick and Prince Selaki
Mchalikis, will fire their best
shots in the six-round middle
event. Chick is returning after
several weeks' absence and is
anxious to start off another local
campaign with a victory. How
ever, the Prince has been going
great guns and may upset
Chick's hopes. At any rate, the
bout will be clean.
Frankie Clemens, Indian "Won
der Boy," will go to the post in
the six-round opener against a
newcomer, George Wagner of
Texas. Wagner is a scientific
performer and considered one of
the best In the business.
