Cavemen
Tonight
Tha Pelicans finish thtlr
traveling toaion tonight and
tomorrow night by masting
tha Grants Pais Caveman at
Grants Pass. Tha Pals hava
dacisively trounced tha Cava
man three times this season.
Jerry Thorne, starting cen
ter who was twice injured in
tha exhibition tilt against the
Marines last Wednesday night,
will go along on tha Grants
Pass trip, but thore Is little
likelihood he will play again
this season.
His ankle is badly sprained
and stitches were required to
close a split finger. Thorne is
the hard-luck guy of the Peli
can squad. Last summer ha
underwent a knee operation
and has had the joint bound
up all season.
After the Caveman series
the Pelicans may rake up one
mora game hero, and then go
to the Ashland conference

Vets Jobless Due
To Training Lack
PORTLAND, Fob. 15 (IP)
Large numbers of unemployed
veterans an estimated 10,000 in
Multnomah, Columbia and Wash
ington counties are jobless be
cause they have not been trained
for skilled work, the U. S. Em
ployment service said today.
Total unemployed in tho area
stands at 35,000. Nevertheless,
there wore 1928 job openings
here in January, the report stat
ed. Most were for office help,
domestics, sewing machine op
orators, body nnd fender work
ers, and other skilled, or low
pny positions. ;

Chick tried for the spin five
times in the third round, twice
managing to flip Joe into the
giant ring llghtshadc. He got his
favored hold curly in the fourth
but Lynam grabbed the ropes
and slid out into the press sec
tion on the first go-round.
Dude Chick evidently didn't
like the ringside photographer
because twico more he heaved
Lynam at the cameraman. Joo
would mutter, "I'm sorry," and
clamber back into the ring ior
more.
Wally Moss, the referee, with
official aid came out on top of
the semi-final. He awarded the
bout to Bob Kcnoston after two
rounds and Stove Pctroll didn't
like it a bit. Ho swung on Wally
in the ring, chased him to the
shower room where the battle
raged.
An enthusiastic spectator, who
didn't like the decision either,
olso joined in and the city gen
darmes waded in to quell the
riot. The spectator was given a
heave and the fight stopped.
Gloomy Gust Johnson and the
shaved-lre a d e d, be-whiskcred
Red (Curly) Dawson grappled to
a tie in the opener. Johnson took
the first flop with a leg strap
and the ruffianly Dawson got his
with a straight arm bar.

Hogaiii Byrd
Set Pace At
New Orleans
.. NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 15 (P)
Still swinging away at the pace
they set in the, Texas Open last
week, little Ben Hogan of Her
shey, Pa., and handsome Sam
Byrd of Detroit. Mich., led the
field into the second round of
the $7500 New Orleans Open
golf tournament here today
Hogan and Byrd, with.;7rs,
were the only players among 144
starters who nicked the 72 par
in, yesterday's first round over
the long, flat city park course.
Fresh and chilling north winds
blew most of the scores away
up. For today, fair and slightly
warmer weather with gentle to
moderate winds was forecast.
The -two leaders were on-tinuing-wlth
the momentunvthey
gained last week at San Antonio,
when Hogan. set a record 264
to win the Texas title and Byrd
scorched through the last 36
holes in 129 strokes. .-
Three long . putts brought
birdies for. Byrd, who won the
1944 tournament here. A trap
and a three-put caused him
bogeys. He topped one drive,
but recovered for a par.
Hogan got birdies by virtue
of two excellent approaches and
a 15-foot putt. . Short second
shots were responsible for his
two bogeys.
Byron Nelson of Toledo, Ohio,
defending champion and last
year's leading money winner,
shot a 36-37 73 to share the
third-place slot with four others.
