Buck maneuvered Fox into the corner where Cohen, outside the ropes, landed an entirely illegal hay maker on the ex-marine's whisk- ers. A press accomplished the tumble. Lipscomb and Weidner were in the ring for the deciding fall and again Lipscomb tried the stunt of letting Sammie work on him. But Cohen's swing was off the beam and caught Lipscomb in the neck and Weidner was on toD in the resulting fall. That precipitated a scuffle be tween Lipscomb and Cohen and also between Lipscomb and Referee Wally Moss that gave the crowd a few anxious mo ments before it was settled. In the opener, Tough Tony Ross, back from an extended layoff and not changed a bit, took two falls from Little Bill Goelz after losinz the first. Goelz negotiated a dropkick and press in the third heat, but Ross used a back-breaker drop and press in the fourth and fifth lor tumbles. Umpqua Fishing Regulations Set PORTLAND.

The flaw is such that it will be tailor-mnile for a loft-hooker like Hawkins if it isn't corrected by next Tuesduy night. When Britton gets set for a righthand punch,, he pulls back too far and leaves the right side of his chin and jaw unprotected, Ducks Killed Hitting Wire Reports of 58 ducks killed by hitting Copco wires crossing the Klamath river near Keno were investigated today bv Copco of ficials and representatives of the fish and wildlife service. Doug Puckett of Keno said he picked up 58 ducks on the Ice on Klamath river under the power line. He notified Sam Ritchey, Copco district manager, and Ritchey spent yesterday after noon at Keno looking into the problem. Ritchey said the ducks are mostly lesser scaup, and evi dently struck the wires while flying In a straight line over the river just above the regulating dam. Jim Savage of the fish and wildlife service said there is a concentration of ducks in that area in extreme cold spells, prob ably accounting for the excep tional kill. Ritchey and Savage both said there Is a possibility that the hazard might be largely eliminated by hanging a strip of wood or steel across the river with the wires, so the birds will be more likely to see the obstruc tion.

He forgets o keep ins punch short, a jab rather man a swing, An opening like that would not be overlooked by Hawkins, whose principal stock in trade is a loft hook, so Britton's handlers are knocking their heads together trying tu figure out a way to keep Red remem bering to keep closed up. The boys who have been sparring with the big fellow have been Instructed to aim for that spot whenever it uncovers, and in all likelihood Britton will get the drift before Tues day. Red has been sparring with Bob (Cougar) Eastman, Jack Bezoff and some other boys every night and the fact that he can punch is testified by the fact that he virtually knocked out Lightheavy Bezoff and Bezoff was wearing a head guard. - Two other preliminaries have been lined up lor Tues day.
