Efforts to secure fighters from Redding. Klamath Falls and Hap py Camp have not yet fallen through, Burdette said, but dimmed considerably yesterday when the "right persons" could not be contacted. "We'll have a good fight card for the fans Wednesday night," Burdette said reassuringly this morning. Joe Carothers of Grants Pass, who was to have met Wolfe in the lower half of the double main event, pulled out Saturday, Burdette said. Meanwhile, Burdette and Co Promoter Owen Thomas have lined up an unusually good sup porting card, which will see killer Dick Adkins, the Griffin Creek terror, move up to his first semi-final spot when he goes against Chief Super, clever lit tle Ford Jones Indian. Hugo Vernon, who won the hearts of the fans if not the de cision in his initial ring appear ance two weeks ago, takes on C. W. Lacy, Medford's fighting cop, in the special event. Lacy will have experience on Vernon, who hopes to rely on his boxing ability to upset the apple cart. Topping the preliminaries will lie a set-to between Corky King, formerly of Oakland, Cal., against Johnny Hamilton in a re match. Hamilton won the previ ous verdict and King is anxious to reverse the decision. Red Barnhart, slugging Grants Pass clouter, goes against Bar ney Harrie.

The card will consist of three 45 minute matches, each to go two out of three falls. Dusette and Stojack are not strangers to each other and since both have a big bag of tricks and a lot of speed, a good fast match is expected. Carr To Return The middle match will mark the return to Medford of Charley Carr of Shrevcport, La., who now holds the junior heavy weight championship of the Ha waiian Islands. Carr has not ap peared here in many years but will be remembered by the older wrestling fans for his clean and scientific way in which he car ries on his work. The-island champ will be pressed to the fullest, however, if he hopes to win his bout for he tangles with Tough Tony Ross, the Salem terror. The opener will send young Danno McDonald, Canadian sen sation, against Lee Grnble, pop ular Los Angeles muscle mang ier, starting at 8:30 p.m. PCL Hockey Playoffs Set By United Press The Pacific Coast Hockey league has wound up its regular season and seven teams in both divisions are getting set for this week's playoffs and a crack at the $37,250 prize money.

Mar. 20 OI.R) Can City college, the amazing unseeded team that rocketed to vinury hi ine iiuuuiicti invite i tion tournament, speed ahead to capture the N.C.A.A. basketball tourney, too? That's the question that has the college cage world in a whirl today, but no team in history ever has pulled the classic "drib ble double'' of winning both tournaments in the same year. But, then, no team ever had the chance that City college has for no team ever has won one tourney, and then gone into the other. For Instance, Utah of 1944 and Kentucky of 1949 each won the N.C.A.A., after they had already been elimintcd in the N.I.T. So. where do City's busy Beavers go from here? The team is enthusiastic about its chances, but Coach Nat Holman was look ing soberly ahead to next Thurs day's clash with Ohio State in the eastern N.C.A.A. semi-finals .
