Fight Card Topped With
Lightweight Main Event
Two top "ranking lightweights
headline tonight's Armory boxing
card that promoter Mack Llllard
has planned as the Beitty
Bomber Ralph Weiser, and Teddy
Hall, the Vancouver, B.C. sensa
tion, getting the 10 round main
event call.
Doors open at 7:30 and the first
of five or six ring bouts will get
underway at 1:30, one hour later.
Both fighters are known to be
dangerous and have plenty of
power behind each punch, and
mai.y observers don't think that
the main bout on the stellar card
will go the full distance.
Weiser is known throughout the
Nor a west as a good one punch
artist and can hit well with either
hand, especially with that favored
left hook that caught Jimmy Crow
on several occasions, and hurt him
three or four times during their
recent armory battle.
1'ltAISE
For the fast moving British Co
lumbia fighter, wiio draws raves of
praise from both Jimmy Byrne
and "Moe" Smith, Grow s mana
ger, he loo Is a hard puncher and
his camp is looking for a surprise
knockout over the slightly favored
Bomber.
According to his manager and
trainer, Hall is In good shape and
will be a definite threat to Weiser
as the two clash In tonight's 10
rounder that should bring another
chapter of top flight boxing into
the local picture.
Late lust night, Llllard received
a phone call from Lewis Jones,
of Chlloquin, and learned that
that two Chiloquin lads who were
to appear on tonight's card have
been sidelined due to illness and
accidents; Chuck Ruff, due to an
Injured foot, and Don Plcard be
cause of a stomach illness will be
unable to fight.
But Lillard who wasn't taking
any chances on this week's box
ing card, had things worked out
In fine shape this morning with a
bit of Juggling and rearranging of
the fighters and the bouts.
In the six round semi windup
Joe Jackson of Tacoma faces Ed
die Brown, in what could be a
standout bout as both fighters pos
sess that vital knockout punch and
are able to find the mark often.
WARRIOR
Jackson Is a well known ring
Warrior from the Tacoma-Seattle
circles and will undoubtedly give
Brown some trouble, but If Brown
can duplicate his last showing in
the armory ring when he KOeil
Bobby Barney In the first round,
Jackson, loo will have his hands
luii.
In another six rounder Little
Papa Brown, who made a couple
of nnneaiances here before. Is
-afitaln back in front of the fight
" fans of the Basin, this time against
Bruce Miller, a top replacement
lor Plcard.
Miller Is a well known Basin
fighter and might be a stronger
opponent for Little Papa than Plc
ard could have been. The Seattle
fighter Is also filling In as he
takes Colvln's spot on tonight's
card. i
To make up for some of the
changes, if any of the such Is
needed, Lillard has added two
rounds to the already planned four
round bout between heavyweights
Al Thompson, the Beatty big man,
and Joe Qutnlon of Seattle giving
the fans their third six rounder.
PUNCH
Both of these big ring warriors
are dangerous and can land that
damaging punch at any time, which
means 'trouble is brewing for one
of the two fighters if not for both
of them before the evening Is over.
This will be the first heavy
weight bout held in the armory
since- Jimmy Byrne made his last
appearance before the local fight
fans, and should bring on all of
the excitement of a heavy tiff.
Dualn McDaniel of Chlloquin
one of the finest young boxers
around this locality meets Orin
Gamble of Seattle in a four round
er that should keep the ring fans
happy.
Gamble and McDaniel are both
top flight preliminary boxers and
have a good style for the ring.
wmcn might pay on for them in
the future years.
The local boxing and wrestling
promoter has also stated that he

event will be Teddy Hall, the fait rising Vancouver, B.C.,
lightweight who meets Ralph Weiser of Beatty in the ring
headliner of Promoter Mack Lillard's ring program. Hall, one
of the top Pacific Northwest's hardest punchers and Weiser
will top off what should be an outstanding card.

it has been two' years since tne
two schools mixed In varsity com
petition and the Owls hold six
straight victories over the Cou
gars, who are in the process of
rebuilding with some top freshman
material. ,
The Cougar athletic system has
been trying to garner some ol
the top prepsters for some time,
and could very well be making the
showing this season If the young
ball club should jell.
Last week, Lassen opened their
season against powerful Shasta
J.C. and dropped two games, but
showed a deiinite improvement
over the first night's battle by
throwing a scare or two into the
homestanding Shasta quintet
urday evening.
Leading the nay for the Lassen
five will be L o n n i e Robinson,
Dwlght Tincr, Art Orons, Jesse
Connacho and Buz Fiammottl
The first three hoppsters are all
products of a fine Lassen High
team last season while the latter
pair are from Westwood High.
In his first season at Lassen Is
Paul Smith, who made his coach
ing stay at Westwood High a very
productive one during the past few
season,
Seeking their first taste of the
official basketball season, the
Klamath Union High School Peli
cans travel south today for a two
game encounter with the, Reno
Huskies at Reno.
Tonight and Saturday night on
the Nevada city's high school
maple court, the Pels will ofli
cially open their 1954-55 hoop sea
son under the coaching of Don
Peterson, who Is seeking out his
first season as head man of the
local prepsters.
The Job seems to be a big one
for the new mentor as he makes
his debut, as the Huskies are the
defending Nevada state champions
and have seven lettermen back
Including Len Mardian, an all - r
stater from last year's state tourn- J-
ament. -.-
To make the job even tougher is
the fact that Reno has a 6 foot 8
Inch center that is regarded as
one of the best "big men to come
out of the Reno basketball system
in sometime in Stan "The Man"
Valentine.
Besides Valentine and Mardian,
who is in the neighborhood of a
feet, the Huskies will probaby open
with Bobby Clements and Jeff
Morby at the forward spots, while
Dean Paddy will team with Mar
dian at the guard positions. Paddy
is 5-0. with Morby and Clements
at 6 feet or better.
Two other lettermen who are
sure to see duty against the in
vading Whlloblrt!s from Oregon
are Don Watts a 6-1 forward, who
Is one of the best rebounders Reno
has on its roster, and Mao Fry
a 5-11 snapshooting guard.
Last year, the Pels split with
Reno in a set of cage battles
played on Pelican Court, this
eventually turned out to be the
sole loss on the 195344 record of
the Wolves who won 25 while drop,
ping tho single encounter.
Peterson will probably open with
Larry Yarnell and Guy Munsell at
the forward slots, Dave D Ollvo
at center and Jack Sunltsch and
Danny Lowe getting the call for
the two guard positions.
Others making the trip to the
Nevada city and who will undoubt

Berra
Receives
Award
NEW YORK 11 Yogi Berra
alill expressing surprise at being
named the American League's
Most Valuable Player, said today
he's willing to play the outfield
for the New York Yankees In 1955.
"I'll play anywhere they want
me," said Yogi, "third base,
catcher, outfield. Just say Uie
word. ' But I wouldn't mind the
outfield a bit if this boy Howard
comes along."
"This boy Howard" Is Elston
Howard, regarded ns one of the
hottest Yankee rookie 'prospects In
years. Normally an outfielder, the
young Negro spent the past year
at Toronto learning to be a
catcher.
"I know Bill (Dickey) will work
hard with him," Yogi said. "Bill
taught me an awful lot when I
came up and he probably can do
the same for Howard. The only
time I've seen Howard was at
spring-straining - last year and I
know he's a hard worker. He don't
grumble and he's willing to try.
That's Important.1
Berra, the MVP In 1951, is the
first repeater for the honor since
Ted Williams won In 1946 and 1949.
He polled 230 points in the ballot
ing by 24 members of the Baseball
Writers Assn. from the eight
American League cities. Larry
Doby of Cleveland was a close
second with 21 and Bobby Avlla
of Cleveland was third with 203.
Minnie Minoso of the Chlcaso
White Sox and Bob Lemon, an
other Cleveland star, linished off
the top five.
