Beavers Co-Lead i. A Soectator Speaks Printed below Is the gist received by this corner, signed Snnrtu Erlilnr Herald and I am Inclined to view with QCM,BR0POH of someone in youf" department 10 put ai ieasi; one foot down and take a stern line in regard to the alleged fights that are chronically oeing perpetrated in our city. . I refer particularly to the Woods-Snapp affair 1 , I. - ,:amBanni mmmjttMl hv RflV and a ehan whose but who probably was a fugitive from the title role of "Uncle Tom's Cabin." J, This eight-ball succumbed in the first round from the combined auacus 01 tar. mwiuu uu extreme senility. The audience was greatly vexed by such a caper and booed no little . . . some held that be had gotten into the ring without his crutches, a feat that most dooks neia o w a s'i"i. ... The lata Snapp-Woods fiasco figured to be a good fight as fights go. but whan gtntlaman of fancy . . . war offering oven money not on the winnar but on the round in which the KO would occur, grave doubts could reasonably be enter tained. Tha round, incidentally, was the third, v Now. such things have been known to happen in this world .a K.,t ci.h information is Generally highly confidential. if not top secret. And so, in this instance, it may have been that information of such remarkable accuracy was obtained through another agency, such as the Delphian Oracle, tea leaves or a "But 'after considerable deliberation, I hold that while one . or two might have the knack of getting such information from the beyond, it stands to reason that everyone can't be psychic. Particularly some of those gentlemen who were so willing to name the round of the swoon. .... There is more to the extremely interesting message, but that will give you a good idea of where Mr. Butt stands. There isn't very much more that I can say. The Hawkins-Dixon matter was a real stinker . . . even Hawkins and Dixon will agree to that, and the real catch was that nobody around here or in Portland had ever seen Dixon in a fight before. . He came in a package, along with Sonny - Kelly, and there's no denying that Kelly was good. He 11 prob ably bis down here again before long, but Dixon won t. As for the fight between Snapp and Joe Woods, I don t think it was quite as bad as the above letter has it pictured. The punch which Snapp landed in the third round would have put out a much better man than Woods. I didn't bet and didnt know or care what odds might have been quoted on the fight up and down the street, but I thought Woods was going to win. That's nothing, I also thought UCLA was going to win. ' One thing yon and I have to remember we can expect and demand a measure of quality in o ur fights, and scream . like wounded eagles if wa don't get it. but this ain't Madison . ' Square Garden. Y'know, in big city sportit parlance, Klamath Falls would be called a tank town. - .

AtniDHd ' Grizzlies1, the Klamath -'Pels weren't doing anything right and trailed 10-5 at the end of the first quarter. But the Pelicans got in to the game in the second period and went on to tneir secona straight triumph over the visit ors from the valley, 54 to 22. That leaves Klamath right on top of the Southern Oregon prep hoop standings, along with Med ford, at two wins and no losses each. Ashland hung up a foul shot and two quick baskets as the game started to lead 6-0, and Klamath called time to cool the Trout Season Dates Marked PORTLAND, Jan. 13 V The Oregon game commission set the general trout season for six -inch minimum size from May' 3 to October 15 at late ses sions Saturday night.

Tag Team Fight Being Arranged - A tag team match, two falls ou of three and no time limit. is being cooked up for the rail birds' pleasure at the armory Thursday night.

Herbert (D-La.), Introduced legislation today setting out heavy penalties for attempts to bribe athletes and sports offi cials, asserting that "sports is big business and the public must be protected from me fixers, the chislers and the grafters. Herbert said In a statement his action stemmed from "the i e c e n t nrofp.tsiorwll football scandal Involving Alvln Paris for allegedly attempting to oriDe Fmnkie Filchock and Merle Hapes of the New York Giants." Paris was convicted in New York last week on the bribery charge. National League t-om missioner Bert Bell now Is study, ins the future status of Fil' chock and Hanes in nrofesslonal football, although both have been paid their full cut irom the league championship game. Herbert introduced a second measure covering only .the Dis trict of Columbia, a Dill pat. terned after the New York state statute under which Paris was nrosecuted. But his federal legislation the first, he said, of its kind ever presented is based on the firemise that athletes and ath otic teams come under the jurisdiction of the federal gov ernment "Just as do interstate carriers, corporations and trade BOWLING No less than 22 Klamath Falls bowlers 10 men and a .dozen of the ladies will take part in the sixth annual state championship kegling tourney at Seaside ,and Astoria this. coming week-end..
