1 I jj ! i I aAL A BltMMtl. rails. Or. Duseffe Lays $500 On Line For Title Go Br HALE SCARBROUGH I am now holding $500 in 20s, 10s and Ss and held together by a good prewar rubber band which belongs to Georges Dusette but with which ha is willing to part forever and ever if his con temporary in northwest mat circles, Martino Angelo, will be so kind as to step in the ring with him at the armory next Thursday n'SAside from lust appearing in the ring physically, Dusette has attached other strings to the head of lettuce. The bout must be a no-limit, finish match with Angelo's Pacific coast Junior heavy weight belt at stake. This all came about last night at the armory when Dusette commandeered the public address system mike from Jack Franey in the middle of an announcement and told the world that he thought his good showing r cgainst Angelo two wins and draw in three fights rated him a return title shot, and that he was tired of begging lor it. Angelo, he said, was continu ally bringing the word 'money' into the discussions, so he, Du sette. had brought along $500 which he would present to Martino for a championship bout next week. Martino riffled through the sheaf of bills and quickly de cided that the offer was much to his liking, and the dough was passed over to me to keep until next Thursday, at which time I am to hand it to Angelo when he comes into the ring to fight Georges. Mot Wagtr The money Is a sort of gift, not a bet, because Angelo isn't putting up anything in a finan cial way, and is over and above the winner's purse for the match. In addition to this by-play, there were three regularly scheduled wrestles at the arm ory last night, with the feature attraction a showing of Ernie Piluso, former Klamathite and present lightheavy champion of the world. Ernie did battle with the selfsame Martino Angelo, men tioned above, and came out second best although Referee Norval Stockstill raised his hand in token of triumph. Initial Meeting Piluso and Angelo, meeting for the first time, took an in stant dislike to each other and were pounding away from the opening gong. In the first canto Ernie pulled a Hollywood trick by lacing Martino into a corner and head-butting him several times in the midriff, and in the second he combined two Sonnenburgs, a back drop and press to gain a fall. Angelo began to get in his licks in the next inning, latch ing a hammerlock on Ernie's muscular left arm and stamping it viciously, meanwhile getting in some eye-gouging on the side. Stockstill pulled him off but Martino broke away and grabbed the hammerlock again before Ernie could Bet off the floor. This happened another time or two. then Angelo dis pensed with the referee by heaving him overboard. Referee Tossed Stockstill clambered back into the ring only to gracefully sail out again, while Angelo con tinued his stamping work, and when Norval crawled through the ropes the second time he awarded the match to Piluso on a disqualification. In the semi-winduo Paavo Ka tonen and Georges Dusette went through a couple of active heats with Katonen trying one strangle and choke after an other, then in the third Dusette broke out of a hangman's noose, back-flipped Paavo and applied his full Nelson. Katonen was out on the canvas and the light ended there. Bob Keneston and Mike Na- zarian drew in the opener, with Mike getting a second-round fall with a reverse crab and Ken eston retaliating in the fourth witn nis uold Hill specialty.

Opponents for the day will be the Weed town team which currently roosts on top of the Northern California league pile. Weed has won four straight without a loss, including a 6-5 edge over McCloud in 11 heats last Sunday, The Sons are rocking along with three straight against no losses, right behind the leaders. Sunday's game will be played on Recreation field, starting at 1:30, and will be broadcast play-by-play over KFLW. Recreation field is in very good shape now, the fence patched, the stands bolstered and the whole affair moved end-around so that the diamond is now in the old centerfield area. Approximately 300 seats in the grandstand will be covered for shade and in case of a hot, beaming sun, those spots will be gathered in by early comers to the field. The game with Redding, which was supposed to start off the Sons' home season and was postponed two weeks ago, has been ordered rescheduled by League President Felix Gas pari of Mt. Shasta, and will be put on the calendar for here later in the summer. Oaks Lead By Points By The Associated Press The ban Jtrancisco seals gained a virtual tie in the ra cmc Coast iiaseoail league tnrough tneir tnira successive defeat of Oakland Acorns ana toaay stood only a fraction in the percentages behind the faltering Oakland club. On an B-tt victory last night the Seals forged anead, 44 to 43, in games won but had lost 26, one more than the Acorns. This gave Casey Stengel's troubled Oaklanders a percent age edge of .632 to .629. Oak Huxlers Nicked San Francisco, leader of the circuit until the Oaks overtook them last month, nicked three Oakland chuckers for 11 hits for the triumph. Frank Sew ard, winning pitcher, went into the sixth frame with a 7-1 lead, but the Acorns rallied for two runs 'in that frame and put over three in the seventh. Hollywood's Stars continued their rampage at the expense of me L.os Angeles Angels, win ning their third consecutive vic tory, 7 to 3, in an 11-inning contest. The Stars broke a 2-2 tie and shoved across five runs in the last inning, and the Angels came back with an abortive at tempt in their half which pro duced only one run. Solont Shut Out Dick Barrett pitched five-hit ball to shut out the Sacramento Solons for a 6-0 Portland vic tory, the second in a row for the Beavers. Portland fashion ed three runs in the fourth inning out of singles by Danny Escobar and Harvey Storey, Herman Reich's double, an in field out and a wild pitch, and scored three more in the fifth. The San Diego Padres re gained fourth place on a 6-2 de cision over the Seattle Rainiers, as the Solons dropped down to sixth place.

The 20-year-old flychaser he reaches his majority tomorrow whose organized baseball ex perience is limited to one year with Trenton in the class C Interstate league in 1943, took the big jump from the navy to the Phillies and made good right from the start. Ennis bashed out four blows yesterday to pace the Phils to a 9-3 triumph over the Cincinnati Reds for the Quakers' sixth tri umph in their last night games. Two of his hits were doubles to place him in a tie for the most two-base hits with St. Louis' Stan Musial. He also drove in a pair of runs to help drive Cincy's Joe Beggs off the hill for his initial setback of the year. The high - flying Brooklyn Dodgers increased their National league lead to four and a half games their largest of the sea son when they outslugged the guild-minded Pittsburgh Pirates 13-8 as the St. Louis Cardinals were beaten by the Boston Braves 9-5. The Boston Red Sox main tained their six and a half game American league advantage over the New York Yankees when they edged out the St.' Louis Browns 5-4 on the strength of Ted Williargs' 10th homer of the year. The victory was Bos ton's eighth straight without a defeat and kept their home rec ord clean against the western clubs. Umpire Hal Weafer ordered Brownie Pitcher Jack Kramer off the field in the fourth inning following a shoving match be tween the arbiter and the St. Louis hurler when Kramer ob jected to a close decision at first base. Kramer heaved the ball over the grandstand as he left the field. The Yankees made it three in Switch Made In Softball Field . Softball teams having games scheduled at an American Legion field will now use the diamond at Applegate and Mit chell for tilts, instead of Del Moro which has been used in the past. This change is effective to night and the game between the Moose and VFW teams will be played at Applegate and Mit chell. The Legion is using Del Moro field for hardball games. The other game tonight, on Recreation diamond, will be be tween the Four Star Merchants and Palmerton Lumber. The Moose softballers won their only game of the season so far, while the Vets have a one-and-one split. Palmerton has divided two and the Merchants have two losses.

Manager Bill Dickey, who was celebrating his 39th birthday, knocked in two runs. A pinch hit home run with the bases full by Frank Secory in the 12th inning gave the Chi cago Cubs a 10-6 victory over the New York Giants. Once again, Chicago's Hank Borowy failed to go the route as he blew a 6-0 lead' when the Giants tallied three times in each of the eighth and ninth innings to tie the game and force the con test into overtime. Sir Hudson hurled the Wash ington Senators to a 4-0 shutout win over the Cleveland Indians in an arc-light contest, limiting the Indians to four singles. Cops Break Up Speedway SEATTLE, June 7 P The state patrol moved in and broke up the biggest "Litue Indian apolis speedway classic in the northwest Wednesday night. As some 300 teen-age speed lovers lined a 20-block section of a Seattle highway, blocked off at intersections by parked cars, the young drivers roared down the stretch in souped-up ja lop pies, racing against a time-clock, with some of them hitting as high as 105 miles per hour. Sgt. W. H. Campbell of the patrol, said some of the 25 to 30 cars didn't even have lights. He said most of the machines had special carburetion to give the astonishing speeds. The officers arrested ten of the youths, and justice court charges including speeding, operating cars with defective equipment and disorderly conduct. Campbell said some of the crates were 15 years old, and some were new 1946 models. He said one speedster drove all the way up here from Chehalis for the "big race." Nothing Wrong With Louis' Right Hand SALEM, June 7 (JP) The Oregon State penitentiary base ball team strictly a non-traveling club has run out of home games, Warden George Alexan der reported today. Usually the Greys have more prospective opponents than they can meet, he said, but this year they have only one scheduled game left with the local Amer ican Legion Junior nine Satur day. The warden, booking agent for the nine, said he'd welcome correspondence from any team with an open date. Classified Ads Bring Results You hava to be smarter than tha fishl Use our tackle!

Feather Belt Due For Air NEW YORK, June 7 M'l Wee Willie Pep and bouncing Sal Bnrtulo, a couple of New Eng land car-scramblers, tangle In Madison Square Garden tonight ior the world featherweight championship in a 15-round fight which doesn't seem to have much point to it except to make one title grow where two bloomed before. Pep is recognized as the head man in New York and Connecti cut he lives in Hartford while Sal has the blessing of the National Boxing association as boss. So tonight's thumping first of three world champion ship tussles in New York this month will eliminate one of those dual title mcrry-go-aroumls which cause no end of confusion lor Gus fans and the missus by their silly spinning. Promoter Mike Jacobs expects a cozy crowd of some 14,000 to 15.00U for this one, and (inures on counting up a gate of $60,000 when it's over, which is nice counting if you can get it.

The line, hardest hit by the loss of IS boys, will have exactly one lettcrmnn. Hob Knstman, back next year. Three Juniors, with not quite enough quarters to their credit to make a letter last year, will also be on hand.

Hold-overs include speedy Tommy Kdwards, lrvln Whitt, Lcroy Coleman, and firebrand Hob Redkey in the secondary, but a green defense, which means green blocking, threatens the stability of the backfield.

Conch Ryan declared that two months, ruther than one week, is what next year's squud really needs, "Hut if the line clicks, then we'll be somewhere," he suld. Despite the fairly exper ienced backfield, Ryan rules out definitely any "triple threat" since the secondary has proved just average in passing and kicking. Weight in the backfield will be Just about the same as last year, very light, while the line, as planned, should average 106 pounds per man, or about 10 pounds heav ier than last seiison.

Mostly Juniors and seniors will make up next yeur's Peli can squad, with five or six sophomores the only underclass men on the team. Furthermore, stated Ryan, no seniors will buck up seniors as substitutes from the bench. "It's rugged," Ryan said, "but you have to start somewhere with Juniors." Three conches, two besides Ed himself, will handle the squad. Ryan will take all the. line except the ends, one conch will handle the ends, and the third will take the backfield.
