FAGB RIGHT HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON I'Tiioay, jui.y 11. inna WOlUFli, 1 TIME OUT! HOW MANY, I wonder, would like to aee 6unday afternoon JooU bill nerer I would, and It's my guess there's a flock of grid fans who would, enough to make Oregon Tech foot ball paying proposition. Despite the Owl's most success ful season last year, they didnt get rich from football. Unfortunately, too, It was the type of football designed for fan Ppeal. But fall night weather here ISN'T designed for fan-appeal, thus this pitch although somewhat belated Inasmuch as schedules have been drawn up. BUT MAYBE 11 isnl too late The Owls have five home dates. Four of them are scheduled for Saturday night. Moving back the dates less than 34 hours from Saturday night to Sunday after noonmay not be too much of a chore. , And It seems to me the visitors would go for it if they felt they would be plsying before, a larger crowd. The other home game Is a Fri day tut. think Sunday afternoon football would be successiut u. auumuu w the warmer weather. THERE ARE two Instances this season where both Klamath Union High School and Oregon Tech are home the Pels Friday night, the UW1S on iuiubi ......... . Sitting in sub-freezing weather two nights In a row is too much for even me raoio pigskin .. It's Oregon Tech that would be hurt, holding down the Saturday night date.

SATURDAY NIGHT Interference Ik & biff obstacle. There are always three or four dances going on. Traditionally, it's the "night to bowl", not to watch football on a irost-coverea ueio. Although Klamath Falls cus tomers supported Oregon Tech's football more last year than in nrevtous years because of the Owls' fielding a high-stepping team that dished out the thrills the turnstiles didn't click me tney should for GOOD COLLEGE FOOTBALL. And supporters of Oretech will testify to the fact that they saw a good brand of football when the Owls took the field. - It seems certain the Owls will have an even better team this year with all but three or lour of last year's freshmen back with another year of experience plus a flock of highly-rated newcomers. It's my guess the mile-high school will at least triple gate re ceipt); cf last year IF SUNDAY AFTERNOON - games - arc ar ranged. IT'S MY understanding Dick Ma- glare, K?JI manager, conferred with Oretech Director Winston Purvine on this matter before the schedule was completed. Maguire was interested, of course, in broadcasting the home Sames and Sunday afternoon would ave been an advantageous time for the radio station. Purvine naturally turned the matter over to the athletic depart ment. It apparently died there, was pigeon-holed for "future con sideration." It's too bad. This year has all the early ear marks of being Oregon Tech's BIG YEAR in football. It's too bad the Sunday afternoon sugges tion wasnt given more considera tion. MAYBE IT'S not to late yet too contact schools that are scheduled for Klamath Falls appearances this season and feel them out on the subject. It's worth more than Just a half hearted try. That is, if Oretech oflclsls are Interested In making the grid sport a financial success rather than a financial drain. I think they are. If nothing is done along this line for the 1952 season, then efforts should be made to institute Sunday afternoon football in the 1953 sea con. It strikes me as being a sure fire way to make music at the turnstiles. "7V "-t..W'.'v- i - - .;y . Those Cardinals Mean Business By The Auocalrd 1'rru Dodiirrs and New York Omuls.

Ring Foes Clash Saturday To Settle Seething Controversy Locke Wins British Open ST. ANNE'S ON SEA, England I Big Bobby Locke of South Africa burst from behind In the final round to win his third British Open Golf Championship Friday. Locke, who had been see-sawing within range of the lead throughout the past two days of play, turned in a trim 73 in the payoff round of 18 holes. This gave him an aggregate score of 287 for the crucial 72 holes, two strokes better than for Irishman Fred Daly. Harness driver Harry Miller scored five victories in one night recently at Lebanon Raceway, Lebanon, O. He is the first driver to accomplish that feat this year. LIGHT OLYMPIA BEER ue75SesT!a uwtiowing 1!irsture j youhave a) I WEEK-END SUPPLYl AT HOME. By RED HURD Newly-crowned Dick Wolfe and Challenger Earl Turner tapered off today to await the bell tomorrow night at the Klamath Armory that will see them settle with stinging leather whether Wolfe has been sitting in the Pacific Northwest middleweight throne room on bor rowed time. It was just three weeks ago to night that Wolfe, a hard-hitting Indian lad who calls Alturas home but got bis fistic start In Klamath Falls, placed the middleweight crown in his trophy room along side the welterweight diadem In a toe-to-toe slug-fest with then-champion Turner. ine split decision that made Wolfe a double champion touched off a fistic argument that has never before been equalled on the local fight front. BOILING Rather than simmer down, the controversy reached the boiling point and stayed there, forcing Matchmaker Mack Lillard to give the Earl of Richmond another crack at the title virtually all of the fight customers that jammed the Armory claim he never really lost. Fan-clamor was so insistent that Lillard decided to bring in new ring officials. Earl Yoakley of Med ford will referee the title squabble. Bob Ross Sr. and another yei to be rimed will act as judges. The Richmond Negro is a vet eran who has mingled with the elite, including a meeting with Sugar Ray Robinson, and wants to get back In the charmed circle but needs the title back to do it. He's 32. WAY UP Wolfe, a comparative youngster at 25, is on his way up but will need a decisive win tomorrow night to prove it. Adding even more spice to the most-highly ballyhooed bout here in many years is the "rubber tag" attached. Turner and Wolfe have met three times. In the first meeting In Port land. Turner won a close decision In the semi-windup to the Joe Kahut-Ezzard Charles bout. The brawl was voted the most action- filled of the evening. The second meetfog. in Klamath Falls, ended in a draw, a verdict that generally proved popular with the fans. Then came the recent (June 201 title soiree when the referee and one judge lit a fuse by voting for Wolfe. Even Wolfe's acting manager. Harry Eagles, labeled the decision "a gift for my boy." Fans stormed the ring in protest and the echoes of complaint still haven't com pletely died. One glib-tongued fan called H' "the biggest unarmed robbery since the Klamath Billiards epi sode" when a character knocked over the establishment with just a badge and an authoritative "this is it. boys." NO KNOCKDOWNS In the three meetings, although all were rousing donnybrooks. neither fighter has hit the deck. But it's generally agreed that one would likely have dusted the canvas with his trunks If there bad been more than 10 rounds. The Klamath Falls Boxing Com mission has made tomorrow s scrap a 12-round affair. Many nng experts look for a knockdown In the late chapters, maybe a knockout. BOTH HIT Both can punch.

Turner has the ring savvv and superior boxing skill. It's a bout that carries potential dynamite made even more at tractive by the underlying stigma of the weird verdict June 20. It has gate appeal.
