The card calls for an opener of three rounds, a semi-final of four rounds and the six-canto main offering with Joe Lynam and Buck Lipscomb. In the opener. Earl Malone. muscular Utah meanie, tics up with Newcomer Joe Smolinski, just out of the army and trying to get along in civilian life by grappling. Malone, appearing here last week after a lengthy layoff, drew a round of catcalls from the fans by his brute- strength type of fighting. His opponent last Tuesday was Canadian Herbie Parks. Likable Herbie goes in with Weed's fa vorite son, Pete Belcastro, for the semi-windup tonight. Ordinarily Parks likes to keep his grappling on the clean side, breaking fair and no eye-gouging or hair-pulling, but experi ence in the past few months with northwest circuit fighters has taught him what to expect when he plays the gentleman, so now Herbie pitches right In with the rest. With Pete Belcastro in the ring, about one round is all Parks can hope for of pure rass ling because when Pete gets warmed up he forgets incidentals such as rules of the game. Brutal Jack Lipscomb, fight ing the main go with Lynam, ap parently doesn't know there is such a thing as rules. He goes about his business of destroying opponents with gleeful abandon but has probably caught a tartar in Lynam. Jumping Joe from Redmond has already whipped Buck a few times and now holds the coast junior heavy crown formerly worn by Lipscomb. Lynam is probably the mast able mauler on the circuit today, having beat an comers uiciuuiug uie uiey Mask. NEW YORK Cleo Shans, 139i, Los Angeles, knocked out Pat Foley, 1311, Worcester, Mass., (4).

A win over Medford will al most certainly make the local boys top-heavy favorites to com mand tlie Southern Oregon con ference playoffs late In Febru ary. Klamath already holds de cisive victories over Grants Puis and Ashland, the other teams in the league. The Tornado has been doing all right this season, losing only to Longview by two points, 43 to 41. The Pelicans, however, beat Longview the next night over here, 39-33. Medford ignored the Rogue River tourney at Grants Pass last month, which Klamath Falls won. and undoubtedly averted a meeting there. Dutch French, Pelican coach, who saw the Tornado in action, says the Tornado cage team Is very much like their football machine of last year, the bovs have played together three years in high school and probably some before that, and are big, rugged and experienced. Al Simpson coaches the Med ford basketball squad and on his roster includes many of the same names that were on the Tornado gridiron lineup.
