Halm's big game s 209, while his match total of 569 was right behind Henning's top score, sut, wnile the two were fighting it out for the scoring laurels, their teammattes were doing the decid- to which team should be the match winner, with Haim's Knox rollers geeting an edge on the Hen- ning’s Lehigh mates, “Old Siwash” taking the first two games to cinch the match. i In the other matches on the even- ill, Richmond took two out of s to grab off the opening ., and Oregon took three E t games from Vanderbilt in the closing fray.

If fle had fol- | lowed instructions, and boxed Louis some more, instead of mixing pun- ches, it might have been different.” In the pargon of the ring Louis |is a counter-puncher; and at his best when the attack is brought to him. But Brescia, in the brief time he lasted, also showed counter punching talent. So much for him. | | High above Broadway Philadelphia !Jack is still doing business at his lold stand, a gymnasium, where he teaches young men-about-town the manly art of self defense and barks setting up exercises to both sexes. Time was when Jack hopped into the ring to tight. That's all past now, though he still looks plenty fit. Into the building where his gym is located, bound for Jack's place, come old-time fighters, to sit around and talk over the old days, and young men of powerful build and hefty beam, to doff their street clothes don fighting trunks and ‘put up their mitts under O'Brien’s sharp gaze. They are the young hcpefuls who believe that if Phila- ‘delphia Jack O'Brien places his stamp of approval on them, cham- 'pionships may be within their reach.

A right hand smash to the jaw finished Quintana one minute and 35 seconds after the opening of the first round. The sudden ending of the bout started a number of fist fights in the gallery which were quelled by the police. Escobar weighed 118 pounds and Quintana tipped the scales at 117% pounds. o A species of snail, found in| limestone waters around Americus, Ga., can rise to the top of a pond | or sink to the bottom by pumping | This is the same principle | used by under-water boats. 3 BUTCH ROGERS SAN DIEGO, Cal, Nov. 14. — Tommy Loughran, Philadelphia cision last night over Butch Rog- ers, of Los Angeles.

Suckling Pigs To Replace Turkeys On Thanksgiving ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Nov. 14— Matanuska Colony Agricultural Ag- ent Joseph Flakne announced that the colonists can furnish Alaskans with suckling pigs if turkeys are not available for Thanksgiving. YES—BUT The above proposition is probably made in absolute good faith, but pigs do not have wings, there is no freight service to Southeast Alaska ports, planes are loaded with pas- sengers—so how are Juneauites po- —=- —— water into or out of an air cham- |ing to decorate the Thanksgiving 546—1516 ber. dinner table with the Matanuska product? e perienced Abe Feldman. The Finn showed himself to be tireless, with a cool head and a stiff right hand punch that he knows how to use intelligently. It took Barlund a couple of rounds to solve Feld- man’s style, but, once he did, he gave his more experienced oppo- nent a mighty busy and most un- pleasant evening. | His marvelous physical condition served to make Barland look all the more impressive in the second fight he has had in this country. His entire professional experience has been crowded into 18 bouts, most of which ended in short or- der. It was George Godfrey, the giant| negro fighter, who recommended Barlund to Paul Damski, who now handles the Finn. Godfrey oould!' do nothing with the youngster in six rounds and was so impressed that he urged Damski to sign the Finn. After watching Barlund score over |Ben Foord, present heavyweight ’champion of the British empire, Damsgi went after the boy. The |first bout Barlund had under Dam- ski's management was against Pat |Marrinan, the heavyweight cham-| ‘plon of Ireland, whom Gunnar stopped in two rounds. Then he| !headed for America.

UNALASKA BOOMS WITH MANY AIDS TO BETTER LIVING The shortage of 5,000 barrels of herring, as represented by the Un- alaska pack this year as compare with 1935, will be more than offset by the good prices that prevail be- lieves Deputy U. S. Marshal W. C. Brown, who was in town the other day on his way to his Westward headquarters from Valdez, says the Seward Gateway. There are seven shore stations about Unalaska and Dutch Harbor. Herring Coming Back But, the fact that herring did not run strong this season, does not dampen the ardor of Unalaska peo- ple, who feel that the lessened run is but a temporary affair. Anyhow “there was plenty to do for all hands that wanted to work.
