ARC Gives Trials OK American Kennel club (AKC) of ficial approval has been given the Shasta Cascade Retriever club to hold a licensed field trial here April 10 and 11. The local club has held two sanc tioned trials one last fall and the latest Just two weeks ago but this is the first time the AKC has given the okay for a licensed dog trial lor the Klamath area. The two sanctioned meets had the blessing of AKC but were on the order of a proof test to see if the Shasta Cascade group was capable of putting on a real show. Differ ence between the two types is that in a licensed trial points are award ed toward the national champion ship for retrievers. In a licensed trial it is manda tory that pheasants be used in the crowning event, the open all-age. Virtually all the outstanding dogs on the Pacific coast will be entered In the April trial The local club will meet Monday night at the chamber of commerce building to make plans for the li censed meet Figure Skate Titles Going South Fast SEATTLE.

Hanson was the night's high point man despite the fact that close guarding kept him from sinking a field goal until midway In the first half. Dick Ballantyne led the Beav ers with IS and Cliff Crandall added 12. In the southern dtvtsio. the Cali fornia Bears clinched first place last night with a ragged 41-37 victory over UCLA.

"This does not mean that Baroudl could not have boxed ten rounds, but does mean that permission was not asked for him to box the extra four rounds. "I did not think Spinelll was guilty of Intent to defraud, although he may have been gutity In theory." Talon Has Favor In Handicap ARCADIA, Calif., Feb. 28 P Rich man. poor man and quite a few thousand others head to Santa Anita park today for the eleventh running of the $100,000 handicap. Fourteen stakes contenders, rang ing from the highly favored Talcn to such longshots as Class Day and Brabancon, and heavily backed on Trust and Autocrat, were groomed for the golden gallop at a mile and one quarter for a gross purse of $139,600 and f 102,500 net to the win ner. Clear weather and a fast track were promised a crowd expected to rival the record 83.500 which turned out a year ago to see Olhaverry, pride of Chile, capture the fat pot. Post time was set for approxi mately 5:02 o'clock (Pacific stand ard time). The draw for the post positions went like this: 1 Terry Bargello, S Talon, 3 On Trust, 4 Autocrat, 5 Miss Doreen, 6 Double Jay, 7 Endeavor II. 8 Elpls, 9 Shannon II, 10 Class Day, 11 Amble In, 12 Bridal Flower. 13 Brabancon, 14 Flashco. Barring a doublecross by the weatherman, bringing rain and mud, the crack team of Talon, the six-year-old grey from Argentina, and Eddie Arcaro, who rode the Argen tine to victory here two weeks ago against the same competition, figured to be the big threat. Rated Just behind, however, were On Trust, with Johnny Longden in the Irons; Autocrat, owned by Bert Baronl and Dominic Battalani of Reno, Nev., and Double Jay, the eastern four-year-old who has been in the money in 25 out of 30 starts. Amble In, speedy lightweight, is owned by Mr. and Mrs. Irving J. Levlne of Seattle.

Stojack Can Get Scrappy Franklc Stojack. flKhthiR here for his second time, successfully defend ed his good grnpple record last night In the main event- against Salem's Tony Ross. Round one proved slow, with lit tle work on either side, both men feeling out their opponent's style, but round two ushered In the work both men nro marked for. First fall of the five-rounder went to Ross In Die third frame when he slugged Stojack Into a daze and then snapped him Into a back breaker followed by a body press. Late In the fourth period Stojack more than evened the score up. toss ing Ross out of the ring on several occasions and finally pinning htm with a prolonged airplane spin that finished off Tough Tony for the evening. The bell for the fifth and ftniil round found Ross still In the center of the ring, still down. Cagy, old-timer Buck Weaver and flashy Frankle Hurt, from Canada way, scrapped It out to a draw In the four-round seml-wiudup. fall number one going to Hart In the third when he clamped a twisting leg lock on the slippery Weaver and got an uncle out of him. Weaver evened the match up. after some pretty fast and exciting running around the ropes, by lead ing Hart Into an argument and clamping a chiropractor on him lor the count. A newcomer showed up In the opener In the person of George Curtis, a long, lanky Inexperienced lad from South of the Line, who was matched with Joe Dorsettl. the New York gypsy. Dorsettl took a taste of his own medicine when Cur tis used a handful of hair to spring Jo- from the ring on several occa sions, but Dorsettl took full number one In the second frame with a flurry of body punches and a body slam. The Southerner came back In the third to pin Dorsettl for the count with a Boston crab, but lost the match, after a rough and tumble display that kept the spectators hol lering by falling Into a hangman's hold that he couldn't break.
