THE KLAMATH NEWS. "KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON June 80, 1933 PAGE TWO Advice For State Track Officials Interest in InterichoUi tie Meet Depend on Date of Annual State Event. Ray Allen Back from East. Paul Thill Given Chance at Portland. Famil iar Face Absent from Madison Square Gar den. Forrest E. Cooper, ardent nd public spirited citizen of Lakevlew, bss soma words of wisdom tor the state high school athletic assoclattoi and the graduate managers of the University of Or-gou and Ore gon State college. A state-wide program of stimulating track and field ' tlTlties among interscholattie athletes was Inrented and pro moted to southern and central Oregon, particularly ' Cooper and Joe Knndson of Klamath Falls. Now they have become disturbed over the prospect of seeing their work upset. Their worries arise from t data of the annual state track meet alternating between Ore gon's two major schools, e e Thesa men succeeded In es- MUMn lha nrnrtAiltlnn Ore gon high schools shculd meet on the track aa near the close of the school year aa possible. They knew unless this Ides was accepted the hop ot cre ating Interest In other -tee's would be lost. The three erents of Impor tance In the southern Ore a and northern California dis tricts the annual meet at Klamath Falls, the one at Grants Pass snd the other at Alturaa would csrry little color or Interest if they were sehedLled tollowir- the Ore gon state meet. It would be anti-climax, and the tcar.ij. Instead ot building up for a championship event, would be going away from it. The huge Oreson meet at Eugene last spring was suc cessful because the youth of the state had an excellent op portunity to prepare for It. A vigorous schedule developed them tor an assault on state marks and more than one rec ord tell away. So, for the sake of continu ing interest In In r.chol-jtlc track activities, these two en hare taken the lead In recom mending to the university and college and to the officials of the high school association every effort should be exerted to keep the date of the Oregon meet as deep In the spring as possible. - Rsy Allen, the curly-haired athlete who aided Klamath hlsh in maintaining Its pres tige In both football and basketball, has returned to Klamath Falls after a trip to the worlds fair. This ath lete, graduated last mouth, has accumulated an abundance ot experiences to help him along the road. Be saw his first msjor league baseball game and has turned his newly acquired knowledge of the sport Into practical application as a pitcher on a Klamath inde pendent team. Allen has considered enrol ling In a college or university next year and becoming a var sity candidate. Toung Paul Thill, the only dependable fighter In Klamath county with, perhaps, the ex ception of Frankie Monroe and Jerry Zimmerman boxea at the Legion hail Friday night for hie last appearance before moving on to Portland. At Portland Thill, algned by Joe Waterman, tackles an able featherweight opponent, Andy Bundy, In a aemi-windup bout on July 7. It will be a long step for ward for a youth who has never fought ontslds the Le gion hall ring. He meets a colored athlete with reputation and experience already estab lished. If he wins, It will mean an advancement; if he loses, It only means he will have to try again. Thill Is one ot the most ad mirable of Klamath's list of boxers, and, while he Is dis liked by the ordinary run of fighters here, Legion hall spec tators have recognized his pos sibilities and will wish blm success at Portland. Joe Humphreys.l nationally known iporta figure, couldn't announce the Bharkey-Cnrnera fight, and that made difficul ties at Madison Square Gar den. Humphreys, 111 for sev eral weeks, haa been a tradi tion at every major prize fight for years. He has been lord of an nouncers for over 40 yeara and no one has ever been able to equal bis ability of the lungs. For the future, the Garden of ficials have considered select ing an announcer and sending him Into training for several weeks along with the fighters.
