LOS ANGELES, Jan. 17 (iP
President Don Stewart of the
Los Angeles Angels says he
hasn't heard a thing about the
Cubs sending out Charley Trippi,
"but we'd certainly be glad to
get him."
"That'a a lot of money for a
class AAA ball player," Stew
art added when informed of the
$30,000 bonus arrangement re
portedly made for the Georgia
athlete.

the county headquarters.
GARDEN HEADLINE!.
ON KFLW TONIGHT
Billy Graham (above), battler from
New York's East Side, appears in the
feature event at Madison Square
Garden tonight. His opponent is
Ruby Kessler, a box office click
from Brooklyn. Bill Corum and Don
Dunphy report this welterweight
ten-rounder over the ABC network.
The artful East Sider is a grand
boxer and has suffered only two de
feats in 70 starts both highly con
troversial decision!. A well-rounded
performer, Billy refuses to get rattled
and has a knack for shifting his
attack from head to body to head.
Kessler is a fast, sharp, efficient
assault artist. He has a driving style,
mixes his punches and complements
a jolting left hook with a bangingright.

also undergone a paring, from 15
onlv fall charged up to his team
after four minutes of muscling
with Jack Lipscomb. 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.

Britton's Aides Work
On Defensive Lapse
Murray (Red) Britton, working out nt the Salvation Army
gym for his coming fight with Roy Hawkins, appears fast on his
feet for a big man' (215 pounds) and has a devastating punch,
but his cohorts are working on one serious fluw in his ilcftMiae.
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. Operation Takes

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

Trippi's Pay
Is Peanuts
CHICAGO, Jnn 17 (AM It was
Red GrtuiKn on the telephone.
"So this Charley Trippi think,
he's getting the most money In
pro football history, el?"
boomed the old Gullopin' Ghost
of Illinois. "Why, that $100,001)
contract with the (Chicugo) Car
dinals is peanuts absolutely
peanuts."
"But, Red, whutcha mean,
'peanuts" tluit they and $100,
000 contracts grow on trees, or
bushes or somethln'T"
"I mean that $100,000 contract
over a four-season period the
Georgia Ind Is going to sign for
amounts to $25,000 per season.
Even 1 can figure tiiat. And I
used to get $25,000 or moro for
one game. That's what I mean by
peanuts."
Guess Trippi was a little over
onthusiastlc yesterday. Red. He
said in New York Unit when he
signs with Charley Bidwell and
the Cardinals It will be for "the
biggest salary In the history of
pro football even more than
Red Grange got."
"Again, I say peanuts when he
compares what lie's going to get
with what 1 got," continued ol'
77. "It would tuko me a couple
of hours to figure out what I
made playing football from 1025
