After deciding to return to the ring, Kenaston went to the mid-west to try his luck and returned west after being satisfied with his condi tion. Just what Kenaston'i cam paign plan is like now remains to be seen but when lie last ap peared hereabouts, it took a tough cookie to hold up to him. Johnson, on the other hand. Is capable of taking care of the best of them with his smooth- working tactics. PORTLAND FIGHT Portland, Feb. S Joe Kahut tlie Woodburn farmer boy, will make his first ring appearance since his one-round knockout at the hands of world light-heavy weight champion Gus Lesnevich when he goes against Johnny "Smack" Butler, Los Angeles Negro, in one of three ten round feature bouts here Feb. 15. Butler, 180, Is said to be no champion but is a clever belter who Is expected to give Kahut the needed test to see If he was hurt by the Lesnevich knockout If Kahut loses to Butler he will go back on the farm and stay there but. If he wins, he will continue in the business of beak busting, his handlers said. Tommy Moyer, Oregon's wel terweight champion, draws tough Lincoln Stanley, young Oakland Negro, in another ten round scrap and Duane (Buzz- Saw) Hoag tangles with "Pee- Wee Lewis, tiny Los Angeles knockout specialist, in the other ten round affair.

HWm WhiJuy, 6 fnof 61 Gran Ntutnl Spiriu UMITIO, MOAIA, ILLINOIS L WITH POINTERS AS TOP CABERS As the Southern Oregon class "B" basketball league neured the halfway mark today it appeared that Jacksonville, leading divi sion one, and Central Point, top division two team, would be the quintets to play off for the league championship the first part of March. Jacksonville, with three wins and two defeats, is being pressed by Phoenix, Gold Hill and Butte Falls, all tied for second place with two wins and two loses. Prospect brings up the rear with a win and three defeats. Jack sonville, with a bye Friday, is certain to be tied for first place after week-end games. Gold Hill goes to Butte Falls and Phoenix moves to Prospect. The "game of the year" in di vision two will be at Rogue Riv er Friday night when the lead ing Pointers go against the Rogues. If Rogue River can come through with a win It will knot first place in the loop but If they lose Central Point is practically a cinch to grab the crown. Eagle Point, in third place, goes against last place Kerby at Eagle Point while Talent, in fourth place, entertains fifth place St. Mary's of Medford. League Standings Division One W L Pet.

Falls Oregon State Rooks took a 41 to 40 win from the Medford high school Black Tornado at Corvallis last night. The win evened the- series between the two squads, Medford squeezing out a 50 to 49 win here Jan. 19.

Medford is on top of the Southern Oregon league with four wins and no defeats, hav ing licked the Pelicans and Ash land once each and Grants Pass twice.

But not here In the Pacific coast area. Here, many vegetables re main in the ground all winter, to be harvested as needed. Our own present garden sup plies us with seven varieties of vegetables. Many farmers have an even greater number from which to choose. Experimenting with several kinds of cabbage, I am better pleased with the Savoy than any other. Not only Is It very little affected by our light frosts but It retains a crispness lacking in the smooth leaved varieties. So far, neither cows nor horses bother the cabbages or turnips. And goodness knows they have had plenty of opportunity to do so, getting in as often as they do. Jerry, the horse, on being dis covered in the garden, shows an historinic ability which would take him far, did he have stage ambitions. First, he registers delighted surprise at my appear ance and comes to meet me, his lips spilling partially munched carrots. He has been, he would have me Infer, simply palpitat ing with eagerness for our ren dezvous amid the vegetables. There was a time, which he no doubt remembers and hopes wlli come again, when 1 tell for WE HAVE STOCK 1350 Eaton Axle, Complete 1350 Eaton Housings 39M1 Brown Lipe Trans. 5531 Brown Lipe Trans.

But even a woman worm will turn, so I thwack his rump and remain unmoved by his look of injured innocense. I sense well enough what he would say, could he talk. "What's all the fuss about? There are more carrots than you folks will eat, even after I have nipped off all the crowns. In' fact, I did you a favor to crown those carrots. Now they won't start growing the first warm days, and become tough." But I'm tough already and so Jerry is spanked through the gate. Of course he knows as well as I do, there are three weak places in the fence and that, come night, he will make his way back. And in the morning, there he will be again, his technique - unchanged. Again there will be delighted surprise, carrot crumbles, charming wel come and all. Yet someway the garden keeps on providing us with vegetables. Guess nothing can defeat the vegetables grow ing on the Pacific coast. JEWELRY STOLEN Providence, R.
