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. Denny Moyer,
brother of Phil, also scheduled
to fight here, got a split decision
over Robert Ratcliff, Seattle, in
the show at Portland.
Surprise of the Portland card
was the disputed triumph, of
Louie Cappellano, Seattle, over
Jackie Puscas, Eugene. Puscas
, was a finalist last spring in the
national AAU tournament.

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

held decisions over Johnny Brat

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.'

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

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:"

Dayton and Polk Robinson of
Texas Tech. Blackburn replaces
Pete Newell who left the Mid

Nearly--100 baseball players
from the minors' Class AAA
leagues on down through Class
D are expected to be drafted by
higher classification clubs in the
next two days. .
But the draft will take up only
a few hours time each day and
then the convention talk will
swing right back into the tick
lish problem of what league is
going to add what club and how
much indemnity will be involved
in each transfer case;;
One such case already, was on
record and it .was a precedent
making deal that of the Class
AAA American ' Association
"drafting" Denver.' out of the
Class A Western League. :
The draft method was re
sorted to. for the first time in
organized baseball history: after
the - American- Association re
jected the price set by the West
ern League as compensation for
taking that' baseball-rich town
out of the Western.
The Western set a price gen
erally estimated at $150,000 for
indemnity for loss of Denver.: r; :
