TWO-WAY MEET
AT LAKE AREA
TO DETERMINE
GROUP CHAMPS
The Crater Lake Ski club's
first slalom and downhill cham
pionships will be held on Sun
day, March 31, at Crater Lake
national park, it was disclosed
Wednesday night.
The organization, in their
regular semi-monthly meeting,
revealed that plans had been
underway for the past two
weeks, but that announcement
was held up pending official ap
proval Irom the park service.
Sponsored by the ski group
and with prizes donated by Matt
Finnigan, the event will be open
to all members of the club.
Champions Crowned
The tournament will see the
crowning of three champions
tne downhill winner, slalom,
titlist and the combined king of
Dotn events.
Starting at 11 o'clock, the
downhill race will be held on
the face of Garfield mountain
in the area known as the
"Slide," located about a quarter
of a mile above Government
camp on the road to the rim.
The slalom race, at the same
site, is slated to get underway
at 1:30 in the afternoon, and
will be run in two heats, the
winner to be determined by the
best total time for the two stan
zas.
Prises Announced
Matt Finnigan' announced
Wednesday a gold cup will be
awarded to the combined cham
pion and gold, silver and bronze
medals presented to the first
three places in the separate
events. The prizes will be on
display by the end of the week.
The ski club, in making the
announcement, expressed the
hope that the meet will inaug
urate a series of annual tourna
ments with the possibility of ex
panding to a point to allow a
greater1 division of competition.
It was suggested that the slalom
be split into expert and novice
classes in order to give a greater
number of skiers a chance at
competition, but the idea was
shelved until more experience
at : tournament management
could be garnered.
Entries, it was decided, may
be turned in to Matt Finnigan,
or by calling any member of the
meet committee Fred Schmidt
at 1848-W, Bob Morrison at
1265-R or Bob Leonard at
1923-J.
Jump Meet Cited
The tournament is the Crater
Lake club's first attempt at an
organized meet and one of the
first efforts to be made locally
in the field of controlled ski
competition. The cross-country
and jumping tournaments held
at Fort Klamath some years ago
were famed throughout the west
and brought some of the out-.

The past three years, however,
have witnessed a phenomenal
growth in winter sports interest

Hogan Shatters
PGA Golf Record
PINEHURST, N. C, March
21 (U.R) Ben Hogan, a long
driving, straight-putting Texan
from White Plains, N. Y., Wed
ncsday continued his onslaught
on par and Professional Golfers
association records by firing a
flve-undcr-par 67 to lead with
a two-day total of 133 strokes
at the midway mark of the
north and south open.
Hogan was not content with
tying tho course record In the
first round with a smoking 68,
but today came back with four
birdies and an eagle to set a
new PGA record for 36 holes of
championship play.
His nearest rivals, Summy
Snead and Johnny Revolta, were
four under par and seven
strokes back in the 36-hole
standings.
Fred Corcoran, tournament
manager for the PGA, said the
36-hole total of 133 not only was
a new record for the " north
south, but bettered the 133 set
by Walter Hagon in qualifying
rounds of the PGA champion
ship. Byron Nelson, north-south de
fending champion and notional
open champ, fired a 130 for the
first 36 holes In the Phoenix
open last year, but this is not
one of the five recognized cham
pionships. Henry Cotton, the
Britisher, shot a 132 back in
1933 in the British open.

NEW YORK. March 31 WR)
Lightweight Champion Lou Am
bers, a master boxer, and Lew
Jenkins, Texas knockout svnsa
tion. were signed at Wednes
day's commission meeting for
IB-round title fight at Madison
Square Garden, May 10.
Promoter Mike Jurohs said
Ambers will recelvo 40 per rent
of tho net gate and Jenkins 20,
He cxxct the bout to draw
about 70,0U0.
Ambers' manager, Al Weill,
also pilots Arturo Godoy of
Chile, the No. 1 heavyweight
contender. Weill revealed that
ho consented to the Ambers
Jenkins match only after
Jacobs guaranteed him verbally
that Godoy would get a return
tltlo shot with Heavyweight
Champion Joe Louis In June
or September.
Jacobs denied ttiat he had
guaranteed Weill a Louis shot
for Godoy. But his denials
were modified by his state
ment: "The National Boxing as
sociation made Godoy the No.
1 challenger. I didn't."
The Ambers-Jenkins contract
makes no provision for Jenkins
to give Ambers a return crack
at the crown In rase Jenkins
takes tho title on May 10. This
provision Is omitted because
Ambers will retire from the
ring It beaten by the Texan.
The National Boxing assocla
tion Is not expected to recognize
the bout as for the tltlo because
the association's No. 1 chal
lenger Is Dnvey Day of Chi
