Civilians and marines packed the barracks' gymnasium Satur day night to get a first-hand look at Jack Dempsey and watch 14 local and leatherneck boxers In action, Dempsey refereed tho three marine bouts, showing the agile footwork as third man in the ring, that made him, probably the greatest heavyweight fighter tile world has ever known a couple of decades ago. i. : Tho first four smoker bouts Saturday night, all between Klamath Falls youngsters, were . ,,. refereed by Wally Hyde,. marine boxing coach. :' HussXerlson TKO'd Harry Tavenner in one minute and 10 .seconds of the curtain . raiser's second round, .Will Knock got a technical kayo 'over Jim Croiiley in 37 sec : onds of the second canto, after i flooring Crossley for a count of nine In the first.

Ben Devore, captain of the iv una Doxing team, mspiayea a terrific leftr hook in getting a TIs O over Clarence Hamilton In OA seconds of their second round. Devore did all .his damage with his left and 'had Hamilton's face bloody when .Hyde stopped the fight. , .'On the marine side of the card, With Dempsey refereeing, John Childs was unable to come out for the third round of his scrap witn lorn juoenmer and. Boefr mer was awarded a TKO. ;George Tenhaaf took a three- round decision over sionx Indian John Thompson after resting on the canvas for a nine-count in their initial frame. Tenhaaf rocked the Indian with rights in the second canto and went on to get the nod in the third. Bill Moyer - decisioned iWU Wheo In RENO.

Moyer was In better shape and more aggressive all the way through than Curlanis, but the Detroit boy showed flashes of good box ing ability early in the fight. After the fights, Frank Van torn, who sang with the Metro politan opera in New York be fore coming in the marine corps, sang a trio of songs on a variety program emceed by Sgt. Paul G. Smith. Wencll Danelc's firt-Ung backfired slightly and the ma rine entertainer was scorched around the faco when gaso line he was using in the act ignited suddenly. Danek fell to the canvas to smother out the flames. James Turnace and Don Lang. don, guitarists, put on a novelty act and Thurman Miller, assisted by Jim Weaver, rounded out the program with a blackface act. The smoker and variety show was sponsored by the Victory Loan drive's special events com mittee and purchase of a bond was the admission price. Albert Pilots Pro Team To Win LOS ANGELES.

That pair of crowd pleasers will mix it up in one half of a spilt mam event. Belcastro, the north Califor nia timberwolf, is jutt about the fanciest thing on the mar ket in cain-raising mat action and will be an uproarious fa vorite to throttle the dark skinned evil genius of back alley brawling. There's not a shv note in Pete's repertory and he doesn't mina at an taxing a Dealing in order to dish one out. For the second half of the main attraction, Angelo Marti nelli will tangle again with the Grey Mask. The return match is Angelo's Idea. He demanded another crack at the Hood after last week's brawl on any basis, winner take all, no referee, no time limit, any place ar.d any time. But the veiled one wouldn't agree to anything quite so infor mal, so they'll get together Fri day night in a normal six-round go. Martlnelli has a huge beef on against the deal he got last week when the Mask temporarily blinded him by grinding his rub berized veil into Angelo's eyes. The Buckeye Beauty got tired of Referee Wally Moss' interfer ence and heaved him out of the ring once, then slugged him again later on. , Even that didn't hurt the handsome guy's fan following and the Mask had to be con voyed to the dressing room by police after getting his win. The curtain - raiser Fridav night will introduce a new face. uen nerman of Seattle, to ar mory patrons. Sherman will vie with Herbie Parks, the Canadian champ. Both Sherman and Parks go in for science more than slaughter, but Herb has demon strated here that he can get rough if necessary. 111:1 Honkers Pile 150 Points In Five Tilts TULELAKE With the Tule- lake high school Honkers piling up a score ot loo points in live conference games, the football weather vane points to a pos sible county title for the local boys in the final play-off sched uled after the official end of the season "Wednesday. , ' Coach Tanzy's Honkers are now tied with Mt. Shasta and Etna, but each school has one game yet to go. Combined points of the two opposing teams are only seven. Yreka, McCloud ana nuiie valley nave already Deen eliminated on losses from the final round. The playoff will be on neutral ground, yet to be decided upon. In the next scheduled games among runners-up for the title Etna plays Yreka, Mt. Shasta plays McCloud and Tulelake plays the Dorris Bulldogs. Tule lake plays Alturas this weekend at Alturas for a non-conference game. The Honkers have played close-knit ball all season and have wiped out their 1944 record in which they lost every game but one and that a tie. Coach Tanzy is completing his first year with the Tulelake string, having come here at the begin ning of the term from Fort Worth, Tex. Dempsey Still Packing Them In Not onlv has Jack Dcmusov token a huge part In four' war bond drives in Oregon, but he'lins stacked away a pcvsonul nest egg ot $200,000 in bonds. Jack played to unotlieu highly appre dative audience out at mo Murine nun-nous gym last Saturday night, refereeing tho murine, smoker bouts and giving out with a very tact ful and interesting interview from the ring, questions by John J. Sirica, his attorney, and answers by the Manassa Mauler. Among other things. Jack said that his tight with Firpo was the wildest he ever had, that his friends were insistent in their belief that ho licked Tunney, that he was glad Joe Louis wasn't among the contenders in his era and that the Louis-Conn show "will bring In plenty of money." Concerning Nazi Mnxie Schmcltng, Dempsey had very little good to say. Dempsey was In strumental in getting Schmeling to come over here from Germany the first time, boosted the Black Uhlan along In his ring career and was generally a great buddy to tho German fighter. Then in 1932,- when Scnmofing's fatherland was beginning to flex its muscles in Europe, with the result that Max's plaudits over hero were turning into Bronx cheers. Jack suggested to Max that ho become an American citi zen and offered to help him with his naturalization. Max Jumped up, clicked his heels, snapped "Hell Hitler. He's the greatest man the world ever saw. Germany is the only country in the world I'd aver live in. I'm surprised and ashamed you'd ever suggest I give up my German citlienshlp. Good after, noon, Mr. Dempsey." That was Jack's last dealing with Der Maxio. and DcniDsev admits now that he's ashamed he ever asked Schmeling to becomo an American. - And now the military government in Berlin is talking of us ing Nazi Maxie to make good Americans out of German brats. As Dempsey said, once a nazi, always a nazi." . ' ' Still looking as fit as a million dollars, Dempsey posed for pictures with marines, boxers, high school kids, the beauty, con test entrants and anyone else who wanted to have their profiles treasured ror posterity wnn mat ot tne Mauler. In answer to a query about his chances In a hypothetical bout with Louis, Jack replied that, although boxers aren't supposed to know what words the size of "hypothetical" mean, he figured he could "take care of himself." And, from the looks of the guy, SO years old now, he could take care of himself with the great majority of today's crop of heavyweights. Dempsey wouldn't stick his ntck out about the coming Louis Conn fight, as his erstwhile adversary Gen Tunney recently did, and said that from three to five weeks In a training camn would be necessary before you could tell anything about either of the ugnters. During the course of the cveninc. Jack also offered to takn on anyone in the house. There were no takers. - Rose Bowl Pendulum Swings Back South I, I KIMSEY ' ,'S4.1.2r.f Dmiilitim 100 Grain Niuthl Spirit! ' MHiyDhMntCtrpmiitn.LinJliUl.r, . I J17 WMSg I By RUSS NEWLAND SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 19 OP) -Pacific Coast conference standings will be tossed into the football whirlpool again this weekend. Among the six teams involved in the three leaeue games is the one which will rep resent tne west in tne annual Rose Bowl classic, in Pasadena New Year's Day. The choice may go to either the University of California at L.03 Angeles Bruins or the South ern California Trojans. They are the top teams of the circuit, each defeated once in confer ence play. Their second meeting of the season, December 1 in Los Angeles, should determine the Rose Bowl choice. Southern California, incidentally, won from UCLA 13-6 last September. Anything can happen, of course, between now and when the schedule runs out. But UCLA rates strongly over California in their clash at Berkeley, Satur day. In the first of their home and home series, UCLA won 13-0 and from all indications is the most improved club of the lot. The Bruins eave themselves a tremendous lift by toppling St. Mary's college from the nation's unbeaten, untied ranks last week. The 13-7 win had no bearing on-the conference race but for morale purposes it was just what the doctor ordered. St. Mary's knocked over Southern Califor- TRUCKS AND PICKUPS FOR RENT You Drive-Long, Short Trips Move Yourself Save H STILES' BEACON SERVICE Phone 8304 1201 East Main nia 28-0 a few weeks ago, the same team that two months ago beat UCLA. Meanwhile, Southern Califor nia, the conference co-leader, comes to grips with Oregon State college In Los Angeles. The USC Trojans were idle last week and should come up strong for Oregon State, just defeated 13-6 by Washington State college. The third conference en counter pits Washington against Washington State on the letter's Pullman field. This figures to be a close one, Washington hav ing won the first of their two engagements, 6-0.
