J. Hammond, who had kayoed 12 'of his previous 30 rivals six of them in the first round, tried to blast little Willie, the former featherweight champion, right from the opening bell. But the veteran from Hart ford, Conn., neatly sidestepped Hammond's rushes and speared him with brilliant jabs to take charge of the fight. Hammond never stopped boring in, but it was Pep who landed the hardest blow of the fight a booming right to the jaw in the fifth round that knocked Hammond from one rope to the other in the corner.

(U.R) Poker- faced J&ck Hurley nearly smiled Thursday as he considered the increasing likelihood of a million-dollar July fight between his Harry (Kid) Matthews and Rocky Marciano in New York. The wily manager of the be- attle heavyweight said it ap peared that the breach with the International Boxing club would be healed. IBC president Jim Norris telephoned Wednesday night to invite Hurley to New ward 19 runs in the opening series against Coquille.

Volunteers Given Instructions in Rescue Technique Washington (U.R) A build ing project of "bomb ruins is rising at Olney, Md., to instruct civilian defense volunteers in the best methods of rescue technique. At the federal civil defense staff college at Olney, the gov ernment is spending about $200,- 000 on a street of ruins to be used in simulated disaster class es. Five buildings representing a cross-section of American archi tecture, from a four-family brick house to a five-story rein forced concrete building, will be ready by July in their new but shattered shapes. To Be Realistic To emphasize the most realis tic destruction possible, the trainees will encounter, during a theoretical air attack and its consequent search for "victims. the sound of planes and explod ing bombs and fires in the streets. Once in the wrecked buildings, they will face jagged girders, tons of rubble, broken water mains flooding the base ments, leaky gas pipes requiring the use of gas masks, and live wires which give the careless trainee a mild shock. This project is a result of in tensive planning. The irregular ity of construction has required special skill because these "per manent wrecks" must be struc turally sound models that will be put to constant use. Get Ideas Abroad Civilian Defense Agency (CDA) members travelled to Ja pan and Europe to view the re sults of bomb and atom-scar red buildings. They also visited England s famous model "bomb ed village," Falfield, for ideas on the first U. S. rescue "street, The builders of the project claim that it is more difficult than straight building because the substantial "alterations' must wtihstand continuous dem onstrations. The steel beams, for instance, though twisted and broken must, at the same time, perform the load-bearing func tions. York to discuss a Matthews Marciano fight. At Loggerheads Huricy and the IBC have been at loggerheads for the past year. Hurley wanted light - heavy weight champion Joey Maxim for Matthews but the IBC re fused. Late last year, after Mat thews whipped Bob Murphy, the IBC agreed to a Matthews-Maxim bout but Hurley said no thanks. He was after a title fight with heavyweight champion Joe Wal-cott. Hurley said Norris told him he wanted to discuss terms for a match to be held in one of the New York ball parks. This could be a million-dollar gate, Hurley said. Norris also offered congratu lations for Harry's win over Rex Layne Monday in Portland, Hurley said. It was the Kid's 78th professional victory. Hurley said he would leave for New York this weekend and expected to confer with Norris next Tuesday. He said he hoped to have the fight signed within a week.

Main Phon 2-S4I7 Indian Affairs Director Denies Fraud Knowledge Portland (U.R) A director of Indian affairs for the Pacific Northwest states denied Wednes day that he knew Mrs. Ernestine Siniscal was not the actual pur chaser of 800 acres of Indian timberland near Gold Beach, Ore. "There were no papers in the files to indicate this sale was to anyone but Mrs. Siniscal," E. Morgan Pryse told a federal court hearing a federal suit to void the sale of the land on grounds of fraud. Swamped With Work He told Judge Gus J. Solo- man he was swamped with work after returning from a trip to Washington, D. C, when he signed the papers executing the sale. The government charges the land was sold to Mrs. Siniscal, an Indian, to comply with bur eau regulations that such sales without public bid must be to Indians. Testimony showed that cashier's check for $135,000 purchased by Henry B. Taylor, The Dalles, and made out to the treasurer of the United States, was given Francis La France, Indian Bureau employee and an other for $25,000 was made out to Mrs. Siniscal. Mrs. Siniscal tranferred title to the land the same day she bought it to Taylor and his wife. Also on the same day, Wil liam Brenner and Fred M. Marsh took an option to buy it for $300,000. The option hus lapsed. 60-SECOND TASTE TEST SHOWS HOW TO , Be your own whiskey expert ! .

Then' we can tell you this: It will cer tainly be worth your while to read this brief story of Buick's new Airpower carburetor. Truth is a skillful driver can just about double the bonus we mention, if he makes the most of what this year's Roadmaster has to offer. Xhe reason you can get such a bonus traces to a pair of simple facts: (1) It's a mixture of gasoline and air that gives you power. (2) Buick engineers have come up with a four-barrel automatic carburetor that lets you use more gallons of air per gallon of fuel. Most of the time, only two of these barrels are needed and they feed such a thrifty mixture that you use less gaso line at 40 mph than you'd formerly use at 30. But when you want a quick burst of eager power you can double the air supply as well as the gasoline feed-and come up with the highest horsepower that Buick's Fireball 8 Engine ever delivered. Of course, any man who's buying a car as fine as a Roadmaster wants a lot more than extra miles from a tank ful of gas. I le wants the distinction of extra room, extra comfort, richer fabrics and all the other refinements that make a car truly fine. He wants to ride with solid security, confident poise and lordly silence. And, while he may not admit it, he yearns for a car that's full of fun. All this, we promise you, and more will be yours when you take the responsive wheel of a Roadmaster. How about doing that-soon?
