PAL Ends Boxing Season Here
With 15-Bout Card on Saturday
Medford Police Athletic
League aims to wrap up the box
ing season on the local front
with a tremendous flourish
Saturday night.
Means of accomplishing this
objective is its 15-bout parade of
fights at the St. Mary's school
gymnasium. The card will be the
last held here during the current
PAL season.
Some of the top talent from
outside of the Portland area is
being brought here for the big
fistic show. The boxers will be
from the Klamath Falls Moose
Boys club, the Burns Elks Boys
club, from Medford PAL and
from Ashland. Bouts have been
arranged in a variety of weights
to assure one of the best bal
anced cards that the Police Ath
letic League has staged since its
organization.
The large number of bouts
which the sponsors say will be
run off with a minimum of delay
in between, is almost certain to
provide some lulu conflicts.
Puscas Battle
Jackie Puscas, 135. Medford
and Cliff Sams, 138, Burns, are
to provide the main dish of the
evening the final event but may
have to produce some whirlwind
action to top some of the 14
previous combats for thrills.
Puscas, feared for his knockout
punch, was the 1955 national
AAU champion. Sams has been
a national semi-finalist and is a
clever boxer who also packs a
KO wallop.
Larry Lewis, 114, Medford,
state AAU titlist, gets "another
chance" at Lloyd Louie, 115,
Burns, in the semi-main. Louie
got the nod over Larry in the
Portland Golden Gloves and
Lewis and a lot of others thought
he was robbed. The two also met
once at Burns in a bout which
was termed a draw.
Fans are expecting to see an
improved Loren Christean when
the 180-pound Medfordite tackles
Del Smith, 182, Burns, in the
special event. Christean. who
made a fine impression in the
Golden Gloves. Christean will
tune-up for the fight Saturday
afternoon by running a lap for
the Medford high mile relay
team in the Rogue Relays.
Dick Lopez, 179, a Medford
scrapper who attends Southern
Oregon college, will meet Mose
Martinez, Chiloquin in the fea
tured prelim.
There will be nine Medford
and nine Burns boys on the card
and they will be foes in seven
of the bouts.
First fight is set for 8:30 p.m.

Knocks Out Que

throwing Charlie Powell of San
Diego was back in business to
day as a kockout artist in the
wake of a crunching third round
victory over Charlie Que of Los
Angeles.
The enormous Powell, who
scaled 209 pounds and out
weighed his opponent by 21,
stopped Que in 24 seconds of
the third round after 'softening
him up just before the bell ended
the second.
Late in that second session
Powell staggered Que with an
explosive right to the jaw,-then
battered him with lefts and
rights just before the bell gave
his opponent a short reprieve.
The San Francisco Forty
Niner end lost little time ending
the fight in the third as he caught
Que again with a volley of lefts
and rights to the head which
seht him falling to the canvas.

Joe Giambra
2-1 Favorite
Syracuse, N.Y. (U.R) Flashy
Joey Giambra, who hopes to re
gain the middleweight ranking
he owned before serving a 2
year Army hitch, was rated a
2-1 favorite today to beat Bri
tain's Johnny Sullivan in to
night's nationally-televised 10
round bout.
In his only bout since doffing
khaki, the 24-year-old battler
from Buffalo, N.Y., was dull and
unimpressive in decisioning Al
Andrews last Jan. 25. He also
has been bothered by a series of
minor injuries.
Sullivan, also 24, hails from
Preston, England, but now lives
in Jersey City, N.J.. and is an
"American-style" fighter. Like
Giambra, he likes ,to whale his
rivals' bodies, so tonight's battle
could turn into a rib-thumping
endurance contest.
