' Both Tony Ross and Bob Ken eston have now agreed to a box ing match here Thursday night, the glove battle to come as the main event of the regular week's armory mat card. Ross, when contacted with the idea, was willing to box any dis tance up to 10 rounds but Kenes ton held out for a short, sweet scrap and four rounds was the length settled upon, four regular three minute rounds. The two battlers will use eight-ounce gloves, as provided by state law, and the fight will be controlled along strict boxing regulations. If the bout doesn't come to a definite finish, a KO or TKO, the decision will be left up to the referee and two ring side judges, picked just before the fight goes on. Both Ross and Keneston have had some ring experience along with their mat careers. Tony Ross lost a decision in Portland recently, to Joe Lynam, who is an adept a boxer as he is a wrestler. Keneston's boxing was done mostly in the marine corps but he has. done some prefessional ring work. In addition to this match, a six-round main event rassling match and a four-round opener are to be scheduled later. Reserve seat ducats for the combined card are now on sale at Castle berry's and the Klamath Billiards.

There are. plenty of trees, plenty of lumber mills, but very little lumber for Home Building. WHY? Here are the simple facts behind the lumber shortage these facts are stopping Home Building: 1. Over 50 of our lumber was once cut by small mills. Thousands of these mills were put out of business during the war by OPA ceiling prices. OPA still clings to wartime policies and these mills are still out of business. 2. OPA's blind "hold the line" policies, plus lack of enforcement, have led to the development of a huge Black Market in lumber. "Black Market" lumber is lumber that costs the people more money than they would pay if lumber were flow ing to them through the normal channels of dis tribution the retail lumber dealer. 3. Wartime ceiling prices made it profitable for the lumber manufacturer to cut sizes of lumber suitable for war uses, but not suitable for home construction. As OPA continues this unrealistic policy, manufacturers continue to cut lumber sizes which are unsuitable for home construc tion. In some cases premium prices granted by OPA encouraged production of lumber not usable for Home Building. Proper peacetime adjust ments have not yet been made to encourage pro duction of home construction lumber such as flooring, ceiling, siding, millwork, plywood all essential items in home constriction. This situ ation affects all lumber production. 4. The manufacturers of lumber have been provide with a hidden premium on export lumber. Th OPA has made it more profitable to prodixiH lumber for export to foreign countries than ti produce lumber for home construction. . These are merely examples from the lumber fit1!; which indicate the type of OPA action that is bloci ing the production of home building materials n many fields. The foct remains that homes cannot be built b any industry or Government agency without fw terials. Homes cannot be built without lumber whethf that home be wood frame, brick, concrete, or stom The lumber and building material dealers, the contractors of the nation can build all the home needed if they have the materials. But the flc of materials must be unblocked. Only increase production of building materials can solve the K- called housing problem and the unrealistic prici policy of OPA is the biggest present block to lr creased production! Any government program that doei not FIRST remove the obstacle Mock ing production of materials will simplf add additional difficulties to the prob lem facing the building industry. ir ic If you agree that present conditions should be corrected, mail this ad with vou i T , , y congressman. iou can get reprints by phoning any of the firm nuHicn IU.
