He couldn’t hurt the little Weaver in the mid-section and he couldn't move a pair of well placed gloves from the Weaver head. And just to make the score look better, Weaver threw a few scattered head slams to hang up draw points.

Gordon got a great hand when he left the ring Bloodiest battle was that between Paul Rudolph at 160 and a tall bronzed lad from Petersburg by the name of Frank Britt at 155, who won the fight on a technical knockout in the third round. Rudolph was not in condition, but he a good sport. He took the decision with a grin through a mson smear. Brit was not a classy boxer, but he had a perfect- ly timed left jab with weight be- hind it. Rudolph stopped a number of those in the face and the fight was over.

With an office and six dwelling rocms, it will be the head- quarters for the bureau on Kenai Peninsula. It was built by the CCC under supervision of Mr. O'Connor. Trappers in the vicinity reported a shkortage of fur but plenty of beaver. In a few cases otter are on the increase.

BOB FELLER TALKS ABOUT PAST SEASON Then Switcl_le_s—;nd Discuss- es His Chances Dur- ing This Year VAN METER, March 1—A big league baseball and a garden pea haven’t much in common except their obvious rotundity, but to young Bob Feller of the Cleveland Indians, Wilson Heramnn 4741424 a definite relationship exists be- tween the two objects. The speedball pitcher d this unique kinship recently in a lengthy resume of the 1937 on. “If the ball feels like a pea you'll be hard to beat,” declared the nineteen-year-old boy wonder. “But if it feels heavy and large — then you'd better notify the management ta order motorcycles for the out- fielders.” Bob said the ball felt like a “very light pea” in his last appear- ance last year against the Chicago White Sox. Had Control In that encounter Bob discarded his tendencies toward wildness, is- sued only two passes and whiffed eleven men as his club belted out a 4 to 1 triumph. “I had lots.of control,” Bob com- mented, “but better yet, I felt se- cure and confident.” He complimented Charlie Gehr- inger of the Detroit Tigers and Joe DiMaggio of the New York Yankees then ventured a prediction for 1938. “Gehringer was the toughest bat- fer 1 faced all season, but DiMag- gio was another hard one to put away,” Feller said. He was modest in his forecasts, saying: “Tris Speaker said I should win thirty-five games, but I think I'll be lucky to win twenty.” Rabbit hunting and routine farm chores were cited as the best con- ditioners by the boy who tied the major league strikeout record of seventeen during his first season - - Sheep-raising is on the increase in North Carolina.

The Cards have a prob- lem child in Dizzy Dean.

Eddie Collins, 1ne gen-ra! mana- wer of the Red Sox, says that the White Sox under Gleason was the greatest team he ever played on, perhaps the greatest of them all, And, he added, there never was a club shaken with such political fire- wo! “T don’t think there were two players on that team on speaking terms,” he said. “Fights among ourselves were common occur- rences not only in the clubhouse but on the ball field. Gleason couldn't stop the battle, but he always had the players so charged up with the desire to win that they went on to take pennants.” r.
