delphia some
Jack D.mpi.y years back. A
moment's digging and we learn
ed it was September 23, 1926.
Our questioner then informed
us that the parents ol a local boy
were unsure of .whether their
offspring had been born on the
22nd or 23rd but knew it was on
the day that the Manassa Mauler
had come to the end of his reign
over the heavies.
Our. hope is that they are
sura of the year, for Dempsey'f
unsuccessful attempt to regain
the throne from Tunney occurred
on September 22, 1927 one year
within a day of his initial de
feat. . Speaking of Tunney and
' Dempsey, the thought occurs that
nere are two champions who
are not living out their span in
the traditional splatter-brained,
financially-dependent manner of
lots of ex-kings. Tunney, of the
training ca m p Shakespearian
'.fetish, is wealthy and currently
ling the navy's athletic pro
am. Dempsey, victim of Dave
s rry's controversial long-count
on that historic 1927 meeting, is
also well fixed and trying to en
list in the army.
GRAPPLING? -Still
speaking of ring matters,
we bear tell that Mack Lillard,
promoter of this town's whistle
and heave business, is consider
ing bringing the grappling art
back beginning later this month.
Mack, intrigued by the report
ed success of heavyweights in
Portland and elsewhere, is dick
ering with Portland and San
Francisco talent which hasn't
been locked up in shipyard con
struction work:
i Further announcement is ex
pected early next week.
ICE
" Here it is middle January and
the city is still undergoing tem
peratures which are a military
secret but also suitable for ice
skating and there's still no ice
skating.
, A couple of weeks ago we
mentioned the situation in this
column, pointing out the facility,
economy and celerity, with
which a sizeable rink or rinks
could be established on any va
cant lot or field.
' Later Dave Bridge, city recrea
tion officer, informed us that
such a project was being at
tempted at Recreation park but
that frozen water pipes had tem
porarily stymied it
' Nothing, however, has been
accomplished since. And the
weather is still such that a warm
fire is not unwelcome.

Klamath's Crippled
For First District
Three Encounter
In their first district 3 encounter-of the new year, Klamath's
Pelicans go out on what is more
night at 8 o'clock against Bend's
maples.
The contest, which under normal conditions would shape up
as a runaway for the Bigbills, may be closer than your winter
underwear what with one Pelican completely bedded, another
a doubtful starter and a third with a playable but gimpy ankle.
A fourth is in the middle environs ot dark brown slump.

The Giants of the mid-Columbia region. Hood River and The
Dalles, meet tonight in a game that may indicate which quintet
will represent the region at the Oregon high school basketball
tournament in March.
One of the two is favored to reach the tourney, but there is
little to choose between them. Hood River defeated eight oppo
nents before dropping a 36-32 decision to Baker last week, and
comparative scores Indicate The
Dalles is on a par with the Blue

or less a collective one leg to
weak Lava Bears on the KUHS
Coach Dutch French this
morning was in a red and white
quandary over his starting line
up but figured that It would be
Love and maybe Brosterhous at
forwards, Cox at center, and
Mickey Butler and Jim Bocchl at
guards.
Don Laird may start in Long
George Brosterhous' place It the
slim forward's injured foot can
not be suitably and painlessly
taped.
Captain Gene Love of the ath
letic intellect is still nursing an
ankle full of pulled ligaments
but will probably play most of
the game if needed. Aldo Bellot
ti, alternate forward, is definite
ly down with an infected knee
which is further complicated by
boils.
Mickey Butler, fast but small
guard, is being inserted in place
of Ingvar Swanson, currently in
the middle of an off-period.
French is counting heavily on
the continued sensationalism of
tall Jim Cox, the junior center
who banged in IS points last
week against Ashland, and Slim
Jim Bocchi, the dependable jun
ior veteran of last season's quin
tet. The Lava Bears, beaten twice
by Lakeview among others, are
not expected to whip the locals.
However, the Benders having
usually proven tough for Klam
ath teams, an upset is not out
side possibility.
Tonight's card will see the
Freshmen tangle with the Tule
lake B team at 6 o'clock and
Coach Wayne Scott's winning
Wildcats collide with the Honker
first team at 7.
The young Klamath team has
thus far had a very good season
and i Coach Scott believes they
will defeat the southern quint.
The Klamath Wildcats have
won five games and lost two.
They overcame the Chiloquin
Panthers who are leading the B
league basketball circuit and
who earlier won from the Honk
ers. Scott will start his regulars
against the Honkers in the per
sonages of Rex Young, Pat
Patzke, Wilbur Welch, Angelo
Giovaninni, and Charles Metz.
The same group will start in the
game Saturday night with Hen
ley. fend a strong Columblt prep
team from Portland to Astoria,
defending state champs and win
ners of nine of ten games this
season, and high-scoring Mc
Minnvllle to Tillamook. Farther
south North Bend will play
Myrtle Point.
In southern Oregon Medford
will challenge Ashland, current
ly leading the conference race
there.
Bend will go to Klamath Falls
for a two game series, Redmond
will play Prineville Friday and
the surprisingly strong Lapine
team Saturday.
In eastern Oregon Pendleton
and Milton-Freewater engage in
a two-game Blue Mountain con
ference series, and Baker plays
La Grande.

SEATTLE, Jan. 18 (P) The
University ot Washington Ca
gers, high on the crest of 10
game winning streak, will trun
dle into Eugene today for first of
two attempts to break Oregon's
traditional Jinx on the Huskies.
The second game will be played
tomorrow night.
Although the Huskies were
the sensation ot pre-season games
in the east and took two straight
from Idaho last weekend, it Is
still a mute question whether
Washington can dump Oregon.
The Webfeet split their series
with a powerful Washington
State squad.
With a one-day rest after the
Oregon series, the Huskies will
tangle with Oregon State at Cor
vallis Monday and Tuesday.
EUGENE, Ore., Jan. 16 (.)
The University of Oregon bas
ketball team, hopeful ot parry
ing the University of Washing
ton's early bid for the northern
division title, will start an all
letterman lineup tonight here
against the Huskies.
Coach Howard Hobson today
designated Rolph Fuhrman and
Warren Taylor, forwards; Arch
ie Marshik, center; George An
drews and Paul Jackson, guards.

Klamath County B league
standings were expected to re
main substantially the same
after tonight's sixth renewal ot
1941-42 hoop play.
The feature attraction will pit
Chiloquin's loop-leading Panth
ers against the Merrill Huskies
in the teams' first meeting since
the Spudpickers clipped the
northerners in the final tilt last
season for the 40-41 title. To
night, however, the Panthers
are heavily favored to plaster
the weakened Huskies who are
currently residing in fourth
place with a three and three rec
ord. The Chiloquins have won
all five of their starts.
Sole possession of fifth place
will be at stake when Bly tangles
with Gilchrist on the Bobcat
court. The north county five
Tuesday were bounced by Chilo
quin, 35-19, but hope to make
the 200-mile trip worth while
tonight. Both Bly and the Log
gers own two victories and three
beatings. The loser will drop to
sixth.
A victory for Henley tonight
over hapless Malin and a loss
by Bonanza to Keno could put
the Hornets into second place,
now held by Bonanza.
Henley, winner over Bly Tues
day night. Is almost a shoo-in
over the tail-end Mustangs who
have dropped all four ot their
loop encounters. They meet at
Henley. .
Bonanza, on the record, should
easily take Keno's Eagles in a
game at Keno. The' Antlers,
though hard pressed to floor Ma
lin Tuesday, have won four and
dropped only one game in B
loop competition. The Eagles
have won one and dropped five.
Bray of the Bonanza quint al
most personally accounted for
Malin's defeat by dropping In 17
points.

Fritzie was to have received

But Promoter Mike Jacobs has
