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.

Sons Will
Play Weed
Barring rain or the type of
weather which forced postpone
ment of their projected debut
two weeks ago, the Klamath
Sons baseball team will make
its appearance before the home
fans this coming Sunday.
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.

the percentages behind the
faltering Oakland club.
On an B-tt victory last night

San Francisco, leader of the
circuit until the Oaks overtook
them last month, nicked three
Oakland chuckers for 11 hits

Prize Major Rookie
Is Gl Bill Player
By The Associated Prtts
Dclmer Ennis, rookie Phila
delphia Phillies' outfielder, who
was saved from the minors by
the GI bill of rights, has risen
from virtual obscurity to be
come one of the most prized
chattels in baseball today.
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.

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."

SALEM, June 7 (JP) The

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.

Coach's Headache
Br WESLEY ROBINSON
Just about the biggest thing about the 1046-47 Pelican football
squud seems lo he a question murk at the present, according to
Head Coach Ed Ryan. New fuces, boys never before out for foot
ball, will bn turning out for practice next September to fill tip
the holes of the 20 seniors who vacated them when graduation
time rolled around.
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.
From the line goes first string Roger Vanderhoff at center
position, Bill Sari, Gene Yarnell, Dick Fount, Dob Thompinn,
Scott Reed at tackle slots: llar-
old Wlrth and Don C.ourley at I 1C t , .
guard; and Jim Pope. Hob' ,f, ', . i,,,i i
Sclby, Chuck Thurmiin, Dee
Nelson, Lyle Hicks uutl Howard
Shirley from the end positions.
Also with the ranks of sen
iors goes Herb Marker. Hen
DcVnrc and Karl Hitnuen out
of the backfield.
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.
Eleven Days Practice
With September I falling on
Sunday, practice wilt start the
next oay, acpicmner z, fol
lowed by a game with Princ
vllle Just 11 days Inter. 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.
Euqena The Touqhett
"Our toughest tenm next year
will probably be Eugene," com
mented Ryan. The Axemen had
almost all Juniors with two
years experience last yeor. he
said, and will be a definite
threat to all prep schools in the
state.
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.
Ryan will possibly be in one
of the most difficult coaching
spots in Oregon prep schools
