CPS look the opening kickoff flt Salem and promptly marched 80 yards for a touchdown and a 7-0 lead. A homecoming crowd of 3,000 was stunned, but not for long.

Solomon again took a kick. And this time he put Willamette ahead to stay as he raced 67 yards into the end zone.

POETS Today's Sport Parade Southpaws Looked As 'Jinx1 By Fighters By OSCAR KRALEY I NEW YORK (UPD-Back in the days when Joe Louis was enlist ing various pugilists in his "bum of the month club" the dark de stroyer was offered a bout with a gladiator named Melio Bettina. Melio, recognized in New York state as the light heavyweight champion of the world, was a southpaw. This, in ordinary lan guage means, he was left-handed. And Louis had never engaged in hostilities with someone who took a menacing stance from this side of the torso. 'I will go down to the gym and work out with a southpaw," Louis said. Then I will let you know." Joe wasn't gone long. And his reply was emphatic. "I," he asserted firmly, "don't want absolutely nothing whatso ever to do with no southpaws Bettina is out." The Brown Bomber's reaction is typical of those - in the boxing trade. Managers shy away from left-handers and so do opponents "If he's your boy," explained one pilot, "nobody wants to fight him. If he's an opponent, he's lough to fight and usually he'll make your boy look bad even if you win. THINK LEFT-HANDED "The trouble with most of them," he added, "is that they think left-handed, too. This seems like a bad rap to hang on a lellow simply because he downs his vegetables with his left hand or labs with his right. You might think, to listen to the boxing folks, that southpaws were all left-handed shortstops. But one lad who has survived this attitude remarkably is Kenny Lane, the Muskegon, M I c h.. lightweight who tackles Lahouari Godih. the alphabet soup Algerian from Paris, in Friday night's tele vised fight from Syracuse. Lane has been very busy wun a total of 59 fights, and very suc cessful with 53 victories over that stretch. But the I told you so ' guys of boxing will point out that Lane never has won the lightweight title. ONLY NINE LEFTIES In rebuttal, you can say "al most." He boxed lightweight champion Joe Brown last July and it was so close that Brown hasn't been up on a soap box demanding that Lane fight him again. True there have been only nine left - handed champions in the whole history of boxing. These were Bettina. middleweights Lou Brouillard, Tiger Flowers, Al Mc Coy and Johnny Wilson: welter weight Young Corbett III; ban, tamweight Jimmy Carruthers: featherweight Freddie Miller and flyweight Jackie Paterson. But the truth is that most man agers, when they see a likely prospect who is left-handed, put him in the gym and convert him into a right-handed. Most of the good left hookers you see are nat ural left-handers. Dave Charnley, the British Em pire lightweight champion, is a southpaw and, along with Lane, may help to give the left-handers a new standing. It is to be doubted, however, because the prejudice is too ancient. But one thing is sure. Lane is a southpaw who will give you a good fight OSC Center In Right Spot CORVALLIS (AP) How did it (eel, center Doug Bashor was asked Sunday night, when he found himself in the right place when California quarterback Joe Kapp made a crucial pitchout. "It was unexpected," said the Portland sophomore, who stole the pitchout and raced 33 yards for Oregon State's first touch down. OSC eventually won Satur day 14-8. But then Bashor smiled and Kakl. well, it wasn't so unexpect ed after all. Bashor said OreRnn Slate's de fense was hinged on either stop ping the pitchouts, or the man who caught (hem. Bashor was covering the man for whom the ball was intended when "1 found myself in the right place, at the right time." "California was a real fine hall club, but we're looking ahead, however. "It probably will take an even Rrcater effort this Saturday than last. Washington State will be real tough in Pullman," Bashor said. But Bashor added: "We're a de termined ball club now."
