Sunday. Hevtmber T, 1134 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NI IK SPORTS O c z X Peoria Cats Gain World Hoop Crown Rio De Janiero U.R) Coach Warren Womble hailed his vic torious Peoria, III., Caterpillars as a "great team" but predicted Brazil's swift although smaller team "will be a factor in the 1956 basketball tournament of the Olympic games." The taller United States rep resentative won the world ama teur basketball tournament with a 62-41 triumph over Brazil Fri day night, climaxing a sweep of all its round-robin final round games. The U.S. team surged off to a 35-19 half time lead and nev er was seriously threatened. The Philippines gained third place in the tournament by beat ing Uruguay, 67-63, and China downed Israel, 51-28, for fifth place. Baker Victor Over Slade PhiladelDhia (U.R) Bi2 Bob Baker of Pittsburgh, turning over a new leaf, joined the line outside Rockv Marciano's throne room after a sparkling, unani mous decision over slippery Jimmy Slade of New York. "I think Nino Valdes should fisht me to decide who meets Marciano," the 28-year-old Ba ker said. "I beat Valdes already in Huntineton. W. Va." Baker, ranked seventh before Friday nights bout with the sixth-rated Slade, revealed that his triumDh was fashioned from two months of intensive train ing, one of his most serious prep arations in years. "I worked hard for this fight, tne 211-pound Baker said. 1 did two months of roadwork alone. I even boxed with light heavy weight Joey Maxim to get me set for Slade." Even Slade's manager, Al Joy ner praised Baker as one of the ring's best mechanics after hefty Bob displayed a crowding type of battle to smother Slade, and punch fast with both hands to the body. "It was a case of meeting a man who was in shape for the first time in his career," Joyner said. The strategy paid off as Baker, pressing throughout the nation ally televised and broadcast bout, did not give . the nimble Slade a chance to get off first base. Slade gave away 2lVt pounds to Baker. Sports Bulletin Boston (U.R) Tony Da Marco, a whirlwind welter weight from Boston's North End, blasted Pat Menzi, Syra cuse. N. Y., for a first round TKO victory last night before a national television audience could settle into its chair. Even the ringside officials and the near capacity crowd of 7.000 persons had hardly settled in their chairs when the end came at 1:06. Referee Mel Manning stopped the bout after Menzi had been knocked to his knees three times by a succession of - left and right ' hooks and a powerful right cioss. i''T a""' minima FIGHTERS HONORED Former heavyweight champion -; Jack Dempsey (left) presents trophies to .Barney Ross cen . ter), ex-light and welterweight, and James J.

RIVERSIDE 11-5-54 Sam Bateman, Owner Lions Sock Colts, 27-3 Baltimore U.R) Sharp passing Bobby Layne led the champion "Detroit" Lions to an easy 27-3 victory over the last place Baltimore Colts last night in brisk autumn weather before a Memorial stadium crowd of 25,287. The victory gave Detroit a league record of 7-1 and left the outclassed Colts- at the bottom of the conference standings with a 1-7 record. The Colts scored first on a 34 yard field goal by defensive halfback Bert Rechichar. But Detroit bounced right back to score on a blocked kick later in the same period and a field goal in the second. Layne s deadly short passes kept the Colts off balance as the confer ence leading Lions went on to roll up a touchdown and a field goal in the third period and a touchdown in the fourth. . The Colts played without the services of their best running back, injured Buddy Young, and as a result their running game against the hard-charging De troit line was virtually non existent.

(U.R) Rep resentatives of several Washing ton, Oregon and Idaho cities met here Saturday to discuss the pos sibility of organizing a class "B" baseball league of six or eight teams to replace the defunct Western International league.

WIL members who may form the nucleus of the new league are Yakima, Wenatchee, Salem, Tri-City, and Lewiston, Ida. Also reported as strong possibilities for league membership are Eu gene and Coos Bay, Ore., and Tacoma and Longview, Wash. mm? BEWARE OF IMITATIONS LOOK FOR THE HAPPY UTILE DOG TOPS IN QUALITY!
