TOVH MEOfOBD MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday. Aug. f, 1(44 PILUSO EXPECTED TO TOUGH MAT TEST Tony Morelll and Jack Lips comb Meet In Other Main Event Thursday Night Popular Ernie Piluso, who made a futile attempt to wrest the Pacific Coast light-heavy-weight grappling championship from Paavo Katonen In Port land Monday night, will get an other crack at the big Finnish matman here Thursday night in one half of a double main event. And, while the match is of the non-title variety, the flashy Italian is expected to operate in the same fashion he would if the bout were for the coveted belt, In short, Piluso will bend every effort to nab a victory from the crown-wearer. Piluso put up a great scrap against Katonen In the title con test in Portland. He took one fall, with his favorite headlock and Dress, but was finally worn down by his more powerful op ponent and lost the third and de ciding tumble when he was slammed to the mat. Clean Bout The match will be a spark ling exhibition of clean ana fancy wrestling, as both adhere to legitimate matwork. Katonen is the bigger and stronger, but Piluso Is the faster. Both know all the scientific answers. The other half of the double main will find two of the ring s most unorthodox characters mak ing life miserable for each other. They are Tony Morelll and Jack Lipscomb, both of them mean gents who would rather tear off an arm or a leg for a fall than obtain It by legitimate tactics. Herb Parks, Canadian light heavyweight champion, and Tex Porter will stage a clean match In the opener. A coin will be flipped to de termine which of the two main events goes on first.

Ore., Aug. 9 U.R1 There are more than 280,000 fin gerprints and more than 100,000 photographs, most of them of known lawbreakers, on file in the Oregon state capitol build ings with the State Bureau of Identification, an agency of the state police. Created as a separate bureau by act of legislature in 1941, after ten years of struggling along with one man in charge, using prisoner labor at the peni tentiary, it now has a staff of experts and assistants, and is housed on the fourth floor of the building, in the same suite as the police offices. More than 21.U00 prints come into the bureau each year, ac cording to George Kanz, direct or. The prints of nearly every known criminal in the northwest are in the files, and prints are exchanged with a great many law enforcing agencies, includ ing the Federal Bureau of In vestigation and with states as far away as Michigan. Filing Efficient Main feature of the organiza tion of the bureau is the filing system which has been worked out, and which permits ready Identification of thousands of criminals. The files are card in dexed, and cross indexed, and re cross indexed. A man can be traced by his fingerprints, or by his last name, or his first name, or even by his nickname. The majority of the work done by the bureau is the finding of criminal records of persons ar rested in various parts of the state or by agencies outside of the state. The arresting officers send the prints and name and whatever other Information they have to the bureau, which then checks the man and sends -what ever informatio!) they have to the originating office. Descriptions of criminals are on file, along with the finger prints. The name of the man, his aliases, his height, coloring and age are all available in the complex system of files. Perhaps the second most Im portant job of the bureau is the tracing of "latent fingerprints," those which are discovered at the scene of a crime. There is a well worked out system for that, too, as the prints are filed ac cording to type and each charac teristic can be traced down. Fascinating Study The study of fingemrints In itself is fascinating to the lay man. Kanz explained the well known principle that no two persons have fingerprints exact ly alike, but further said that out of the 20 billion-odd fingers in ine world, there are no two prints alike. One of the major achievements of the bureau was the identification of a kidnaped baby last year, who was stolen from the Albany hospital one day after she was born. That particular type of identification, which used the footprints of the child, is an unique case, at least 'on the Pacific coast, Kanz said. Even In the case of Identical FTIiiiaMi7iSMairBla HUBBARD -WRAY CO, 29 NORTH RIVERSIDE twins, there may fce great dis parity, as, he said, there is In the case of his own children, identical twins. On the other hand, he has on file the prints of another set of twins, and while the prints are not Iden tical, they are more nearly so than any other prints he has ever seen. Only the very smallest portion of the print Is necessary to make a positive identification, he said.
