small colleges, Saturday will
meet Lewis and Clark in Portland

And on Nov. 13, Willametle'wlll
play Arizona State of Flagstaff at
Yuma. With a 7-0 record thus far,
Willamette is one of but 21 un
defeated teams in the nation.
But even a powerhouse can be
feared once in a while, and the
Bearcats were ruffled a little Sa
turday early in their game with
College of Puget Sound.
CPS look the opening kickoff

80 yards for a touchdown and a
7-0 lead. A homecoming crowd
of 3,000 was stunned, but not for
long.
Stan Solomon, who some obser
vers have rated as good as any
Pacific Coast Conference back,
then took a CPS kick and raced
77 yards for a score.
After CPS failed on a short
series. Solomon again took a kick.
And this time he put Willamette
ahead to stay as he raced 67
yards into the end zone.
There was only one league

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."
