It was a slam-bang affair from start to finish with the Mask drawing first blood with a leg strap, forcing Davidson to con cede the first fall. Referee Stops Bout The ex-Marine returned to the fray with a series of elbow and knee blows that left the Mask groggy. A Sonnenberg and body press gave Davidson the next fall, but he was unable to maintain the pace and the ref eree stopped the match near the end of the fourth round with Davidson prone on the canvas from a series of head butts. In the jeemi-wlndup, Pete Bel castro and Terrible Tony Ross went to a four round draw with each man taking a fall and Ref eree Earl Yokely taking about as much punishment as either contestant in his efforts to keep the bout on a reasonably clean basis a futile endeavor. Surprise Event The surprise event of the evening was the Georges Du- sette-Tarzan Potvin three-round preliminary, In which Dusette, a Canadian making his first ap pearance on the coast, gave as fine an exhibition of strong-arm tactics as has been seen in the Medford arena in many a month. The match was Dusette all the way as the Canadian muscle man broke out of hold after hold by sheer brute strength, tossed Potvin clear across the ring repeatedly and took the one fall of the contest in the last stanza by seizing Potvin in a full Nelson and shaking him into a coma as a wolverine might shake a rabbit. .

' THI PACIFIC TIUPHONI AND TILIORAPH COMPANY 148 No. Bartlett Medford Telephone 2101 Washington, Feb. 2 (U.R) The United States made it clear today that It intends to punish Nazis who committed crimes against their own peolpe in Ger many. Acting Secretary of State Jo seph C. Grew, in the clearest statement yet Issued on this government's view toward war criminals and offenses against minority groups, said the gov ernment intends to punish Ger man leaders and their associates "for the whole broad criminal enterprise devised and execut ed with ruthless disregard of the very foundation of law and morality." Grew said this would include offenses wherever committed against the rules of war and aganst minority elements, Jew ish and other groups, and individuals." This view aligned the state department with the British view that Nazi crimes against German Jews and other Ger man Nationals should be pun ished, but not necessarily by the machinery that punishes war criminals those guilty of vio lating the rules of war.
