    Arch Moore
Found Okeh
Physically
San Francisco (U.R) Ex
amining physicians for the Cali
fornia Athletic commission said
today that world light heavy
weight champion Archie Moore
was a "perfect physical speci
men," despite the fact he had
been banned from fighting last
month because of a bad heart.
Athletic Commission Dr. Rob
ert Laddon said that he would
"recommend that Moore be is
sued a license to box in this
state on the basis of this exam
ination." A month ago Moore had been
denied permission to go through
with a bout in San Diego after
an examination by Dr. James
Ryan who stated Moore had a
slight heart condition.
Dr. Laddon called into con
sultation here Dr. Meyer Fried
man, well-known local heart
specialist. Dr. Friedman said a
cardiograph showed no heart de
ficiency and that Moore's chest
and lungs were in fine shape
and that he was "a perfect phys
ical specimen."

Leahy Sees Grid
De-Emphasis
Portland (U.R) Frank
Leahy, former Notre Dame foot

being overemphasized, college
sports " if anything," are going
through a period of de-emphasis.
Leahy, here on a business trip
said a good example was that
spring football has been cut to
a total of 20 days. He said this
could adversely affect the col
lege game especially since pro
football was gaining.
Leahy was here to confer with
Montgomery Ward company
stockholders. He is a representa
tive of financier Louis Wolfson
who seeks control of the comp

Pro Hells Canyon Material Said
Kept Out of Papers by Big Money
Pasco, Wash. (U.R) A
joint Senate-House subcommit
tee touring the Northwest for
testimony on the proposed fed
eral dam in Halls canyon on
the Snake river resumed its
hearing here today.
Charges that "big money" had
kept pro Hells canyon dam ma
terial off radio stations and out
of newspapers and a description
of public power as "pool room
prosperity," highlighted the
hearing in Idaho yesterday.
At Lewiston, Ida., the first
witness, Sam Fretwell, Parma,
Ida., president of the Washington-Idaho
Hells canyon associa
tion, charged that Idaho Power
company, the Idaho Reclamation
association and the Idaho Cham
ber of Commerce had joined
forces to cause radio stations
and newspapers in southern Ida
ho to refuse to use material from
the Hells Canyon associatin.
He did not identify any sta
tions or papers but claimed that
advertising had been withdrawn
from mediums which used asso
ciation material and in one case
the owners of a weekly paper
had been forced to sell.
Ed Mathews Blasts
Three Round Trippers
Louisville, Ky. (U.R) It
took Ed Mathews a while to get
the range but the Milwaukee
Braves' slugger is back today on
the home run beam.
Mathews blasted three hom
ers in Nashville, Tenn., Mon
day. They weren't quite enough
however, as the Dodgers pound
ed out a 10-8 victory to square
the spring series with Milwau
kee at four wins each.
Hank Aaron also homered for
the Braves while Sandy Amoros
hit two two-run homers for the
Dodgers.
The "pool room prosperity"
remark, which drew laughter
from about 800 persons jammed
into the Lewis and Clark hotel,
came from A. B. Curtis, mayor
of Orofino, Ida.
"Hells canyon dam would cost
us money without providing any
taxes," Curtis said.
He cited Bonner County, Ida.,
which he said collected $3,480 a
year annually from Washington
Water Power company before
the firm built its Box canyon
dam there. Now, he said, the
county collects nearly $500,000
a year from WWP.
John George, Lewiston, na
tional vice - president of the
Rural Electrification association,
another proponent of the high
federal dam, said "Idaho is far
behind her sister states because
our high officials are against
public power." He said the
"largest aluminum .deposit in
America" lies in Latah county
Election To Select
Seamen's Union Ends
San Francisco (U.R) Bal
loting has ended in a National
Labor Relations board election
to choose a union for Pacific
Coast seamen.
However, an NLRB spokes
man said the vote count may be
delayed because of an appeal
by Harry Bridges' longshore un
ion to the TJ. S. Supreme Court
to invalidate the election.
The vote was conducted
among unlicensed seamen on
ships belonging to members of
the Pacific Maritime association.
The contestants were Harry
Lundeberg's AFL Seamen's In
ternational Union and Interna
tional Longshoremen's Ware
housemen's union.
north of Lewiston and could be
developed if cheap electric pow
er were available.
Robert Werner, publisher of
the weekly Clearwater Tribune
at Orofino, Ida., said Idaho was
the "most solvent state in the
Northwest" and "does, not want
its resources exploited by other
states and public utility dist
ricts." ;
The three and a quarter hour
hearing adjourned at 6 p.m. af
ter 30 witnesses had been heard.
About twice that many persons
added written statements to the
committee record.
In a morning meeting at Boise,
Idaho Gov. Robert E. Smylie
suggested that Congress would
do better than to let the Federal
Power commission decide on the
feasibility of Hells Canyon dam.
. The congressional committee
moves to Portland tomorrow af
ter its hearing here.
