Knockout
Seen For
Headliner
Boxing returns to the Klamath
Falls Armory this Friday night,
sod ft grand slam program is be
ing planned by promoter Mack Lil
lard as Idaho's lightweight champ,
Jimmy Crow will be making a re
turn appearance in the armory
ring this time against Ralph Weis
er of Beatty.
The 10 round main event between
Grow and Vie Beatty Bomber
should be one of the finest 10
rounders held In the local ring for
some time, with both fighters
pointing - for ft knockout, - - -
Weiser, who has been in train
ing for some time, is working hard
for this fight with Die talented
Lewiston battler, and is known by
many to possess a powerful punch
in both hands, which might give
Grow some trouble should the
Bomber connect with either a sol
id right or left.
. It is unlikely that the fight will
go the lull distance, as both boys
have the fighting ability to stop
his opponent should they get tbe
chance to throw their "Sunday
punch."
Grow, who has run up three wins
and a draw in four fights since ap
pearing before the local ring public
will weigh in for this fight in the
neighborhood of 133 pounds, while
Weiser will be close to the 133
pound mark, his best fighting
weight.
These two fighters have never
fought before, but since Grow's
knockout victory Over Merrill's
Georgie Price last August, Weiser
has been clamoring for a matchc
with the Idaho sensation who has
speed and power behind each
punch he throws.
Lillard is also planning to give
th fans their money's worth In
the four and possibly five support
ing bouts that are lined up for the
preliminary to the Grow - Weiser
10 round headliner.
In a six round semi windup
bout, itc ".on should be fast and furi
ous as Chuck Rough meets Johnny
Mark of Seattle. Rough, a Chilo
quln battler with a sharp fighting
style, is future main event mater
ial, according to several of his fol
lowers, and will be out to prove
this point at the expense of Mark.
The Seattle youth is not to be
taken lightly, as are any of Bob
Wark's fighters have shown quite
wcu in receub armory meetings,
such, as Frankie Sharp, the boy
who stopped Bobby Barney's string
of KOs on the supporting card of
the Grow Price battle last sum
mer. In another scheduled six rounder,
Barney, the Sprague River knock
out artist, is Blated to tangle with
Eddie Brown of Beatty, one of
Weiser's SDarrintr nartners.
in what Is shaping to be a dupli
cate of the main event as both
boys are pointing for a knockout
and keeping the fight from going
the full distance.
In one four round bout, P. K.
Watson of Willow Ranch, will meet
Junior Riddle, another Weiser sta
ble mate, in a preview for Watson,
who is an ex-KUHS boxer. Riddle,
who has also been training with
the Beatty Bomber should prove
to be a tough test for the Willow
Ranch fighter.
In two other four round matches.
Dick Henry, of Beatty and the
Weiser fighting machine, will prob
ably meet Billy Plummer of Bly
while Don Ficard of Chiloquin is
still short an opponent, but Wark
is bringing another fighter from
Seattle with him for the brilliant
punching Picard, according to lat
est word received by Lillard.
Tickets for the first boxing
match of the season are on sale
at Dick Reeder's Store for Men in
Klamath Falls at the corner of
Fifth and Main streets for the re
served seat sections. The early
sale of tickets has been moving
very good and quite a few of the
choice ring side seats have already
been taken.

NEW YORK MV-No doubt about
it. The three best passers in col
lege football this year are Ore
gon's George Shaw, California's
Paul Larson and Purdue's Lennie
Dawson. All three wrap up their
season's this Saturday and each
apparently has a national title
clinched.
According to NCAA statistics re

No. l in total offense, with Larson
making a strong bid to overtake
the leader and win the crown two

Dawson, the youngster who UP'
set Notre Dame, holds the lead
in pass yardage.
YARDAGE
Shaw, leading all season, has a'
total yardage net of 1,413 yard's
as he winds Up against Oregon
State. Larson takes a 1.375-yard
total against Oregon State. Lar
son takes a 1.375-yard total against
Stanford. Dawson, with 1,309,
opposes Indiana. - .
Larson could become the sec'
ond collegian to win the total
yardage crown in successive
years Oklahoma A&M's Bob Ferti-
more did it in 1944-45 and Drake's
Johnny Bright pulled it off in 1946'
50 but at worse he'll be tops in
completions. Thus far he's hitting

this time I cannot go alonff with
the ' ruling of the Wcrtd Boxing

While Weill dissented from the
year-old committee, which was set
up to standardize championships,
Hobert Christenberry of the New

"For the first time in the history
of boxing we have a committee
which is determined to control the
sport all over the world.
"I am confident the committee
will stop the unhappy incident
which have occurred in the past.'
