Semi-Windup Likely To Steal Spotlight On Pro Boxing Card A match which promises to steal the spotlight on the all professional boxing card at Hed rick Junior high school gym on Saturday night, Oct. 19, has been signed. Promoter Harry Chipman an nounced yesterday that he has paired LeRoy Flamond, 160, Portland, against Bob Milne, 156, Seattle, for the six-round semi-windup. They fought a real pier sixer in Portland last Tues day night, a match that had the crowd cheering wildly all the way, with Flamond winning a narrow decision. Chipman said there is a lot of bad blood between Flamond and Milne and they are anxious to settle their differences in Medford. Hails From Alberts Flamond is a Cree Indian who h3ils from Edmonton, Alberta, where he is under contract to Gordy Grayston, former Empire middleweight champion. His ap pearances in the United States are being handled by Ted Walk er. Flamond never had an ama teur bout and is undefeated in 25 professional matches. He has boxed main events in western Canada and headlined two cards since coming to the states, where he has boxed in Montana, Wash ington, Idaho, Nevada and Ore gon. He is saving his ring earnings and when his fighting days are over he plans to go into the farm implement business in Edmon ton. Phil Mover, Portland, and Roy Ray, San Francisco, clash in the eight-round main event. Three four-rounders will complete the program. Tickets are on sale at Lam port's sporting goods store in Medford and at the Greyhound Tavern in Ashland.

BOSTON CELEBRATES Boston (IP) Boston base ball fans rejoiced quietly today over the fact that a baseball team which represented the bean town for more than 75 years had toppled the New York Yankees as kingpins of profes sional baseball. B3 conference encounter at Hay ward field. Oregon State, with three vic tories under its belt, is a solid 18-point favorite to knock off the Vandals. However, Coach Tommy Prothro and his assist ants aren't taking the odds mat-ter-of-factly. They remember all too well last year's game at Moscow when a desperation late game touchdown pass was all that saved the Beavers, 14-10, ancTput them in the Rose Bowl. Except for tackle Dave Jesmer, who is out of the game with a torn cartilage in his side, the Beavers will be at full strength for the contest. At Oregon, the Webfoots, fresh from their startling 21-0 win over UCLA, may have their hands full against pass-minded San Jose. The Spartans have completed 23 of 57 passes for 346 yards and three touchdowns this season and are expected to fill the air with passes against Oregon. Surplus of Snow Halts Lift Work Mount Shasta, Calif. A sur plus of snow has halted work until next spring on the lower ski lift being built by the Mt. Shasta Ski bowl. The heaviest early - season storms in many years have left two feet of snow at Panther meadows, where the lift starts, and more than four feet where it ends. The area ranges in altitude from 7,800 to 9,850 feet. Bowl Secretary George Schra der said the Panther meadows lodge would not be built until next year and that the entire project has now been set for completion by Sept. 1, 1958. A second lift is planned for 1959. Schrader said also that plans had been dropped to install a rope tow at Panther meadows and that the only skiing area would be that at Snowmen's hill at the base of the mountain.

Red Raiders Head for Vile Encounter Ashland A 26-man Southern Oregon college football squad was to have left this afternoon for Portland. The Red Raiders oppose the Portland State col lege Vikings Saturday night in their 1957 opener in the Oregon Collegiate conference. Illness threatened to hamper the hopes of the Raiders in their effort to make a good start in the loop. Back Eldon Francis and Guard Tom Findlay were reported as flu victims. Quarter back Lance Locke and Center Phil Sword were said to be un der the weather. SOC Mentor Al Akins called off practice last night because of threat of sickness among the players. In workouts on pre vious days offense got the at tention. Concentration was on correcting mistakes made in the line against the rugged Linfield club and on improving backfield timing. Defense did well against Lin field and therefore did not get such heavy work in this week's practices. Portland State also has had it troubles with the flu bug. Public Interest High In 2 Gridiron Tiffs Eighth Albany Pin Meet Set Albany Some 1,500 five-man teams will win more than $100, 000 in cash prizes at the eighth annual All-Coast Bowling tour nament, Feb. 15 to June 29 at Albany lanes. That was the forecast today as Albany merchants and Toye Lindblad, operator of the Lanes, cooperated in laying plans for the 20-week event which prom ises to be the "biggest and best" since the tourney's start in 1950.

A total of $25,000 in guar anteed cash prizes will be of fered, of which Albany mer chants are donating $6,000.
