Pep Winner
By Decision
Willie Pep's famed boxing
prowess carried him a little fur
ther along the comeback trail
Thursday as a result of his clear
cut 10-round victory over hard
hitting Claude Hammond of
North Bergen, N. 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.

July Mattfiews-Marciano Fight
In New York Seen as Possible
Seattle, Wash. (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. The
Chies have good pitching, also,
in Dave Mann and Mickey Coen
with Buzz faporer in reserve,
Mann allowed five hits in his
turn on the mound and Coen per
muted only one.
Seek First Win
Mann, sensational gridder for
Oregon State college last fall,
will be on the hill for Roseburg
probably on Saturday night,
The Studs will gun for their
first league win in this week's
series. Loose fielding and lack of
hitting hurt the Studs in their
Drain series last week-end. Man
ager Hoosier Hoffard feels his
crew is capable of better base
ball and will settle down against
Roseburg.
Fans who thought the Saw
dust loop was fast last year are
finding it sizzling this season.
Former pros in the circuit are
Roy Helser, Harvey Storey, Bill
Beard, Ad Liska, Stew Fred
ericks, Bill Burgher, Paul Gehr
man, Frank Roelandt, Clyde
Blevins and Clarence Mellbye.
College talent includes Mann,
John Farrell, Al Simpson, Bailey
Brem, Joe Tom, Don White and
Jerry Cade.
Plans Told
For Play-Off
In District
San Francisco (U.R) Playoffs
for the right to represent the
world series of college play-offs
were announced Thursday by se
lection committee chairman Clint
Evans.
The series will be held in
Omaha June 12-16.
The Schedule:
USC, winner of the southern
division of the Pacific Coast con
ference, will play the northern
division winner either Wash
ington, Oregon or Oregon State
in a best two-of-three series
on the latter's field, May 30-31
The series will also decide the
Coast conference champion.
2 Fresno State will play the
winner of the California Colle
giate Athletic association
either Santa Barbara or San
Diego State at Fresno May 28-
27 in a two out of three game
series.
Seattle To Play
3 Seattle University will
play the winner of No. 2 on the
latter's grounds on May 30-31 in
a best two out of three game
series. The dates may be 'shifted
to June 2-3.
4 The PCC champion win
ner of No. 1 will play the win
ner of No. 3 on the PCC cham
pion's diamond June 6-7, best
two out of three to decide the
eighth district championship.
Evans said the selection com
mittee realized that Fresno State
or the CAA champion would
have to play two series as against
one for Seattle to get into the
finals. The committee tried to
balance this off by scheduling
them the home grounds advan
tage.
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.

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.

ness and freedom from bite. So we say compare
Calvert with any other whiskey and let your own
taste decide.
We're sure you will prefer Calvert Reserve, be
cause its taste is determined by folks like you who
make over 50,000 taste tests a year.
But, after your own test, if you still prefer an

It gives this old familiar sign
Would you be interested in getting
one gallon free with each tankful
oi gasoline you buy?
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?
