Crippen, Lewis Fight in Portland Steve Crippen, Medford bat tler who will headline the Po lice Athletic league boxing card here Saturday night, provided some of the top action of the evening in a losing cause last Saturday in bouts at Multnomah Athletic club in Portland. An other Medfordite, Larry Lewis, came through with a victory. Crippen dropped a decision to Rich Sodarte, Seattle buzz saw fighter. The Medford slug ger connected with some solid punches but was victimized by the faster punching of "his 'foe. Lewis got the verdict over Mike Crader, Portland PAL. Lewis, too, will be on the card here. Phil Moyer, Portland Ramb lers, who will be Crippen's riv al here, stopped a stablemate of Sdarte's, Lisco Jones, in the third round.

(U.R) Su gar Ray Robinson, who return ed to the ring for the first time in 28 months Monday night, and appeared as classy as ever, ex pressed disappointment today at the fan's reaction. "They always want blood," Robinson said. "They don't seem to realize I'm just trying to fight myself into shape. I'm not trying to knock anybody out in the first minute. It wouldn't do me any good." Robinson,"now 32 boxed six exhibition rounds in the forum at Hamilton with Gene Burton, a 31-year-old middleweight who held decisions over Johnny Brat ton and Kid Gavilan when he quit active -fight 'three years ago. Called For Kayo Robinson, the former world middleweight and welterweight champion, was so clearly super ior to Burton in the exhibition that ringsiders called for him to deliver a kayo punch. Robinson has spent the past two years as a song and dance man and his legs showed it They never looked "better. He was travelling around the ring like a cyclist, bearing in, suck- ering Burton into corners, run ning around him, chasing him, making Burton chase. . Robinson said he had boxed only three days prior to the ex hibition. He now plans a series or similar no-decision contests. tne next in Detroit sometime in December, and then at least a dozen 10-rounders. "If I think I can make it then.' he said, "I'll let everybody know. If I think I can't, I'll step ngnt out of the picture again." Turner to Get More Coachinq New York (U.R). Middle weight Gil Turner of Philadel phia, Who Stonned Rav TtraVa Monday night, will go to Chi cago next Monday for two more weeks of instruction under Joe Louis on the comeback trail Turner, ex-welterweight chal lenger, showed the benefits; of Louis' teaching' as he scored a technical knockout over Drake ot New York at 1:27 of the ninth round before 1,754 in Brooklyn's Eastern parkway arena : Registering his second victory as a pupil of the former heavy weight champion, Turner , used me snuiiung approach and solid left jabs taught him by Bomber Joe, instead of his -own former windmill tactics. He also weak ened Drake with hooks to the body. " , - SHAW.

Fanfare Congratulations are in order for Rocky Stone and Bud Kast ner, back and end, respectively, for the Medford Black Tornado, who were chosen on the second team in the Portland Oregon ian's state prep all-star football poll. There's considerable feeling here that ' Stone should have rated higher. It's possible that, had Medford advanced farther in state title eliminations, the Tornado gridder would have made the top backfield. How ever, according to our observa tion, most ballots likely were turned in by the week end of the quarter-finals. Stars of schools in this section of the- state are at a disadvant age since the heavy concentra tion of poll participants, coaches, officials and sportswriters is in the northern area of the state. While selection of four first stringers this year from south ern Oregon counties seems to belie ' this argument, the dis advantage nevertheless exists. Still, with all the talent in the state, both Medford players can feel honored to rate so high. BASKETBALL STARTS A and B class championship games wrote an end last week nd to prep football in Oregon but there'll be little respite in high school sports. Basketball starts with a rush this week nd. Many schools, of course, have been practicing for some weeks. In Jackson county all the preps go into action with participation in two jambor ees the highlight. Medford and Ashland jour ney to .Grants Pass Friday night for the second annual Southern Oregon Conference jamboree. The Jackson county Bees, all six of them. Butte Falls, Rogue River, Prospect, Jacksonville, Talent and St. Mary's have a jam session Sal day night at the St. Mary's gym in Medford. Then there's a number of regular games.' On Friday Cra ter will be host lo Glandale, Eagle Point will travel to Oakridge,' Phoenix will go to Jacksonville and Rogue River will entertain Illinois Valley. On Saturday night Medford will be host to Eureka, Calif Crater will be at Glendale and Eagle Point will be at Oak ridge again. : PREVIEWS The jamborees are looked upon as previews of the South ern ; - Oregon Conference and Jackson County B Leagues. Re sults, however, cannot be con sidered too indicative of how the races will go. There'll be some clubs concentrating on winning but coaches of others likely will give a good number of boys a chance to play and will experi ment with several combinations, Medford likely will be in the latter group but the Black Tor nado yet will aim at better re sults than in the jam at Ashland last year. The Tornado was on the short end in all three quar ters it played. Scores in each period were close and Medford wound up with the same total of points , as did Ashland which came out on top in its three cantos of action. GIRLS SHOW TALENT There are reports that some fine talent as seen in the Tri-Hi-Y girls' flag football tussle. Penn. Suspends Joey Giardello Philadelphia (U.R) Joey Giardello, leading contender for the middleweight boxing crown, was under suspension by the Pennsylvania State Athletic com mission today for being accused of beating a gasoline station at tendant on the head, with one of his crutches. The alleged beating of How ard Short, 36, took place four weeks ago when Giardello was using crutches for a knee in jury that cost him a crack at the , middleweight title against champion .Carl (Bobo) Olson, Pierre Langlois of France since was selected to face Olson at San Francisco on Dec. 15. - Commission Chairman Frank Wiener, in announcing the sus pension Monday, said the 24-year-old South Philadelphia fighter will not be reinstated "until he clears himself' of the charges. : .

John McCamant, who led the Carleton college harriers to the Midwest Conference champion ship recently, was clocked ! in 16.06 over the three-mile title course.

In fact, the starting Leahy Raps Bowl Choice Chicago U.R) Frank Leahy, former Notre Dame - football coach, rapped exclusion of un beaten UCLA from the Rose Bowl game today as a "penalty for being good." He said that the Uclans, rat ed No. 1 in the nation, should be put into the contest against second ranked Ohio State, also unbeaten in nine games, so that, the two could play for the na tional championship. "What a game that would be," he said. "If they had UCLA in that game, I wouldn't miss it for anything." "I can't figure the thing out, Leahy said. "It's unusual to have a team in the Rose Bowl that's been beaten three times, . and one by a score of 34-0 by a team in its own confernce. I can't go along with the ruling.". Southern California, named by the Pacific Coast conference as its bowl representative by virtue of its finish as runner-up to UCLA' in the title chase, has lost to , Texas Christian, Notre Dame and UCLA with the lat ter taking a 34-0 decision. The xrujaus wuii eiguk games. "It's probably a hard earned honor for Southern California, Leahy said; "and certainly it's a good football team. But for the big one like the Rose Bowl, you ought to get the best you can locate. : ."It doesn't seem like Ameri canism to me. You penalize a team for being good:" Season Tickets Still on Sale Season reserved seat 'tickets for Medford high school basket ball games are still on sale at the senior high office.
