JULY HI, 1052 EARL TVRNER confustd me somewhat when tie displayed In difference t Uie choice of tudset before Saturday night's shindig With Indian Dick Wolfe. I was out of town when Wolfe lifted the Earl's Northwest middle wetsht title here. So when I caueht Turner at the Armory the first nlKht he hailed into town (or workout, two nichM before the rematch. I broached the Miblect as tactfully and deli cately as possible. "Yes. I thought I won the first HbM," he said softly with a Brln. in answer to my query. I assured him that every flRht Jan I could round up agreed with But Turner. modest, likeable boxing; veteran who looks as con tented, as a kitten full of milk when he's pounding the piano, didn't have a beef. "I could be wrong, he added. I REMINDKD him that three ; new olflcials had been rounded up for Uie rematch. What should have been Rood news to a' ftuv who lost his title because a couple of guys were looking the otlier way. made hlUe more impression on Turner than if he'd been told Uiat rain was pre dicted the next day. He shrugged, and with a twinkle in his eye. murmured "It aoesn I make any difference who the judges are." I no longer wondered at his in difference when he sprawled Wolfe on the canvas with one of the most wicked right-hand punches I've seen in two decades of watching box-fights. For all the Earl of Richmond was concerned, the judges could have "stood in bed." All he wanted was a referee who could count to ten. Turner's short right-hand bomb a sportsman to the end. the Oakland Negro called it a "lucky punch" cleared the air and sent a houseful of fans away satisfied. TURNER IS a polished work man who will always be welcomed by the fans here. The clout customers would now like to see Turner against either lirsal Snapp or Phil Sampson. - Eittier match sounds like a turn stile tune from here. Snapp. inactive for well over a year, intimates he'd like a tune-up bout first. Sampson challenged the winner of Saturday's fight. Turner, who did a first-class renovating: job Saturday night, will probably be called on before the summer turns to fall, to clear the air some more. 3ecause Snapp still lays claim to the Northwest middleweight crown. When Enapp left to finish his schooling in Southern California. Northwest boxing moguls felt be was. for an practical purposes, ab dicating the throne. An elimination tournament was held and Turner won. Regardless of who Is Tight in the controversy, there's just one wsy to settle it. 1 think it would pack the Armory. THE KOREAN squabble can be cut down as the main reason minor leagues are having trouble staying alive. But another reason Is lack of finances, as this city well knows when they waved goodbye to the Far West League. The Major Leagues admittedly need their farm clubs in the Minors. For this reason, this corner comes up with a suggestion: Instead of paying five and six figure bonus checks to untried rookies, why not spend that money to keep the minor league clubs open for business. , This matter hits home in Klam ath Falls. If the Philadelphia Nationals, the Gems' parent club, had helped-the Gems more and the same thing had been done by other parent clubs in the Far West League baseball-hungry fans would be watching baseball games this sum mer. And Gems Stadium, a good base ball park, would be filled with baseball fans, not termites. Hyde, DeWitts Go to Quarters : TACOMA m Top-seeded Hers chel Hyde, Berkeley, Calif., moved easily into the quarter-finals of the junior men's division of the Pacific Northwest Tennis Cham pionships here Tuesday by defeat ing Bon Martin, Tacoma, 6-0, 6-1. In another junior men's match, Jerry DeWltts, Oakland, Calif., advanced by beating Gerry Linden, Seattle, 6-2, 6-2. In a women's quarter-final match. Amy Yee, Seattle, downed Elizabeth Loeck, Mill Valley, Calif., 6-3, 1-6.

The first U. S. contingent to flex its muscles will be the soccer team. It meets the very good Ital ian eleven at Tampere. 100 miles out in the country from Helsinki, in a qualifying match. Soccer never has been a strong point in American sports competi tion. The U. S. team was beaten in the first round at London four years ago. Although the Olympics don't open oflicially for another three days, competition has been going on since Monday. Two qualifying rounds of basketball nave oeeu completed. The first round of field hockey and the first soccer matches were played Tuesday night. FREE PASS " ' The field hockey Is the only sport in which the United States is not represented. The basketball and soccer both are qualifying competitions for the later Olympic tournaments. The U. S. got a free pass in basketball. The last big contingent of the powerful Russian Olympic team arrives late Wednesday afternoon 10 railroad carloads including wrestlers, boxers and weight Wiers. More than 230 Russians came in last Saturday in a plush-lined train from Leningrad. The Russians probably will be happy to see the reinforcements alter their first venture into Olym pic competition Tuesday night. The highly - touted Red Army soccer team from Moscow had to come from behind in an overtime to put down neighboring Bulgaria, 2 to 1. The soccer matches are played on a o n e-1 o s s-and-you're-out plan and the Soviets had been labeled favorites for the Olympic gold medal. SIDELINED Joining Bulgaria on the sidelines were India. Romania, France and Greece who were beaten in order by Yugoslavia, Hungary, Poland and Denmark. The Yugoslavs looked th best nf the bunch.
