Clear The Air "But I want to clear the air before we get into the ring," he explained. "When Humez and I accepted this match, it was with the understanding that the win ner would get the . next title shot. I've got a lot of respect for Humez. I expect a hard fight, but I expect to win, and get the title fight I was promised." Humez is rated No. 1 among the world's contenders; Fullmer No. 2. But the betting was at "even money" today.

Riverside Ave. PHONE 2-6209 COME IN TODAY tEARN WHY NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO BUY AN OLDSMOHLEI Pat Flaherty In Pole Spot For Big Race By FRED FREUDENTHAL Indianapolis, Ind. (U.R) Pat Klaherty, a happy-go-lucky Irishman, just wanted to make sure he will fit into the front row. when the bomb sends 33 high-powered cars into the auto race on Memorial Day. The 30- year- old Chicagoan wound up with more than that he'll be leading the rolling roadsters, by virtue of winning the pole position with the rec ord average of 145.596 miles an hour last Saturday. Flaherty thus becomes one of the leading choices to pick up the rich jackpot at the payoff banquet the night following the race, and the experts , figured it was about time, too, that his racing luck changes. Only once before did he re ceive the checkered flag of vic tory in a major event. That was the 250-miler at Milwaukee last summer. Ten years ago this freckle faced youngster had no ambi tions to get . mixed up in this hazardous profession. He was a mechanic by trade but caught the racing bug while working for one of the speed merchants. Rest Was Easy The rest was easy. He started with jalopies, then graduated to midgets, sprints, finally winding up with big cars. He took his "500" driving test in 1949 and finished tenth in his first start the next year. Flaherty had his share of troubles. In 1953 he suffered a concussion while hitting the northeast wall. The following year he tangled with Jimmy Daywalt in a spectacular wreck and again glanced off the wall. Last year he drove the distance with bad shocks and again fin ished 10th. So this year he wants every thing to go correctly. He drove about 300 miles practice, then hurtled his new white-and-pink racer around the oval for new records. and his handlers were consider ing a defense against Basilio of Chittenango, N.Y., ex-welterweight champion. Washington Tops Oregon Seattle (U.R) The Wash ington Huskies ended their 1956 Northern Division baseball sea son on a victory note yesterday by dumping Oregon 11-8, in an error filled contest that saw 12 miscues committed. The Huskies rallied for five runs in the last of the eighth on a walk, three errors, a triple by Jack Brady and a single to ice the game. The win, credited to Bob Reimer who came on in relief in the sixth, was Wash ington's fifth against nine con ference defeats. RECORD-BREAKER Pat Flaherty of Chicago smiles after winning the pole posi tion for the 500-mile Me morial Day atrto race at In dianapolis, Ind. He topped 17 qualifiers with a record breaking 145.596. mph. Terry Leads ND in RBis Corvallis (U.R) Oregon's Johnny Keller continued to hold the Northern Division batting lead in games through last Sat urday, according to figures re leased here today. . - . Keller, shortstop on the de fending champion Webf oots, was hitting at a .488 clip, 29 points ahead of Bill Rich of Washington State. Oregon outfielder pitcher Terry Maddox led in runs-batted- in with 21, seven more than Dan Love joy of Oregon State. Jim Pihfer of Oregon led in dou bles with 5 while teammate Jim Pingree shared the triple , lead with OSC's Jack Bowen at 3 Four players have two home runs each Jerry Exley of OSC, Jerry Bettendorff of OSC, Jack Ballard of Washington and Joe Tremley of WSC.
