PfOVE IT I The Montana State college Bobcats opened their 1932-33 basketball sea-eon Friday night before a good crowd In the local high school gymnasium as they handed the Murphy-Maclays a 59 to 26 defeat. The new edition of the famous Bobcat machine functioned better than that which opened the season here last winter.

At times the passing: attack reminded one of that exhibited by the Golden Bobcats of a few years back. But when the collegians let down on defense they discovered the local aggregation was strong enough to make things interesting. The Murphys actually utscored the delegation from Bozerhan In the last half, making 22 points to 21 for the college. But the big advantage run up by the Bobcats Jn.the. tlrst was enough to provide a comfortable margin all of the way.

The Home Oils got revenge on the Monarch Lumbers in the preliminary game, turning in a 22 to 18 victory over their Y. M. C. A. league rivals.

Wednesday' night the Monarcha won 34 to 33 In a league contest. Bobcats start Early The Bobcats, using long passes, short shots and a minimum of dribbling, completely outclassed the Mur-phy-Maclay quintet in the first 10 minutes of the game, scoring 20 points while holding the locals to a single field goal by stocking. Another field goal by the University player and a goal and free toss by Ario, who starred for Montana State recently, constituted the scoring for the Murphys in the first half, which ended with the collegians on the long end of a 35 to 7 score. Ronald Woods, Murphy center, led the scoring attack by the locals In the second half, accounting for 10 points. This encouraged some or the rest of the boys and Knutson came through with three baskets.

Flanagan two and Ario contributed another, before going out of the game on personal fouls. Wallv Wendt, who starred at center for Great Falls high' school 'a few years ago. was high scorer for the evening with 17 points. Benny Craln, 6 foot 4 center, -who' Is' la his -flrsc year at the college, came through with 12 points, three baskets in each half. Crain Is EDeedvand uses his height to advantage all of tfle time.

He promises to be the regular center during the coming conference campaign. Jimmy Young, another Great Falls product, proved to be a ball rustler and was as accurate at the free throw line as he was from the field. He mafic three baskets and three gift tosses for nine points. Monarchs Take Lead The Monarch Lumber aggregation led 12 to 8 at the end of the first half of the preliminary game but could not retain their advantage and finally fell before a last minute attack. They also suffered under the handicap of playing the closing minutes of the game with only four men on the floor.

The Monarchs got off to a nice start and were leading the Home Oils 8 to 2 when the first quarter ended. The count was 12 to 8 in their favor as the half ended. The teams battled on virtually even terms in the third quarter and still the Monarch led, this time 16 to 12. Gradually the Home 'Oilers cut down the lead. Finally they went ahead 17 to 16.

The score was tied at 17-17 and again at 18-all. Then free throws by Patton and Wilson gave the Refiners a two-point lead and a second or two before the final gun Patton made the margin four points with a long field goal.

The gleaming Cuban bon" bon, slender "Keed" Chocolate, beat off the 15-round challenge of Chunky Fidel La- Barba Friday night to retain his claim to the featherweight championship, but only after as close and bitter a battle as the big pit has seen this season. Shaded off a trifle from the spec tacular form he has shown In three years of battling topnotch feathers and lightweights as fast as they could be thrown against him. Chocolate had Just enough extra sparkle to catch the eyes of the two Judges, Sam Austin and Eddie Farrell, while the referee, Willie Lewis, voted the slam-bang duel a draw at the close of the 15th round. A crowd of 15,000, one of the best of the season, saw the two little gamecocks, as far apart in style as they were In the tints of their skins. slug along at such an even pace that The Associated Press score sheet chalked up six rounds for each, with three even.

No Knockdowns There were no knockdowns, but the thrills piled one on another in the closing round as first LaBarba. then Chocolate, staged one rocking rally after another, with both winding up finally in the loth round so spent and exhausted they could only stand in mldrlng and go through the motions of fighting. LaBarba, a chunky, good looking. curly headed youth from Los Angeles, once the flyweight champion, pressed the slim negro most of the way, bobbing under Chocolate's long left hand to dart to close quarters and a thumping body attack. He won the first, fifth, seventh, ninth, 11th and 14th rounds, with his whipping left hand that dug deep In the "keed's" body, or flashed up from their close embraces to the head.

In the 12th he made his major bid, catching Chocolate along the ropes as the round started with a looping left to the head that bandied the negro's lees and forced him to clinch. The "keed" held, desperately as LaBarba scenting a chance to end it all, battered him across the ring and back again. Chocolate Comes Back But Just when he needed it most. Chocolate's reserve strength came to the fore. He dug hi feet into the canvas and started punching.

Wallops that had been slipping over LaBarba's bobbing head, bouncing off protecting gloves, suddenly whipped home. In a twinkling the advantage shifted as Chocolate volleyed one right and left after another Into the Call-fornian's tired head. For the last minute and a half of the 12th the Cuban negro, battling desperately against a defeat that had been a scant few punches away, had as great an advantage as was LaBarba's In the first half of the round, which ended with honors dead even. Once he settled down and gained control of his wild left hand and free-swinging right that missed as often as It landed. Chocolate came on to add Just the necessary touch of sparkle to his work to warrant a de cision that could easily have been a draw.

His deftness, boxing skill, and sweeping wallops that raised a lump on LaBarba's left cheek and cut the flesh there, gave Chocolate an edge In the third, fourth, sixth, eighth, 10th and the final rounds. The sec ond, 12th and 13th were even. Olin Dutra Is Out. of San Francisco's Open Golf Tourney SAN FRANCISCO. Dec; 9.

A new star has arisen on the far eastern tennis horizon, and for the first time In many years Japan In 1933 will be able to send two first-flight players into the battle for world tennis supremacy.

The new hope of Nippon la Ryosuke Nunol, 22-year-old student In Kobe Commercial college, who defeated Jiro Satoh, ace of Japan's 1932 Davis cup squad, in a brilliant five-set match In the finals of the all-Japan cham pionships here shortly after Satoh had returned home from a successful world tour. On his way to the finals Nunol also disposed of Takao Kuwabara, second member of the 1932 Davis cup team and the 1931 national champion. Satoh. rated by many experts among the world's 10 best, was fresh from recent California triumphs, which Included two victories over the world's No. 1, Ellsworth Vines, In Pacific coast tournaments.

In California Satoh also defeated H. W. "Bunny" Austin of Great Britain. During his summer's play In Eu rope his greatest success was In reaching the semifinal jround at Wimbledon, where he fell before Austin. Japanese tennis critics considered Satoh 's play on returning to Japan much im proved, but he met his master In the Kobe student.

Nunol, tall for a Japanese, is a gangling youth built on lines somewhat like those of Vines, the Ameri can champion. His most formidable tennis weapons are a powerf'il forehand drive and a fine volleying game. He has been among the best In Japan for three years, ranking second In 1931 and 1930 and third in 1929. but only this year has he reached his prime. Not since the famous team of ichlya Kumagae and Zenzo Shlmizu reached the Davis cup challenge round against Tllden and Johnston In 1921 has Japan been able to produce more than one first-flight tennis star In any year.

COAST CLUBS WIN RIGHT TO SET SALARIES Maximum Pay Rolls Are De termined for Four Minor League Classes COLUMBUS, Dec. 9. UP) A week- long fight over fixing a salary limit In minor league baseball ended today with adoption of an amendment to the original recommendation allowing class AA leagues to fix their own payroll maximums. The action was the last before the National Association of Professional Leagues adjourned to meet at Galveston. next year.

Adoption of the amendment was a partial victory for Pacific Coast league magnates, aligned against the American association and International league owners on the question. Original recommendations of the National association's "cpmmlttee of five," setting a limit in other classifications and fixing penalties for vio lations were adopted unanimously. William C. Bramhan of Durham, N. president of the Piedmont league, was elected president of the association.

The salarv limits adopted for the lower classification leagues will see maximum monthly payrolls of $4,250 in class A groups; $2,000 in class $1,800 in class C. and $1,000 in class D. At thfr same time a player limit was established In all leagues, 18 men In double 18 In 15 In and and 14 in D. Adoption of the amendment to the class AA salary limit was preceded by heated arguments between Branch Rickey, vice president of the St. Louis Cardinals, which own several minor league clubs, and clubowners la the Pacific Coast league.

The coast magnates argued that it would be poor business to set a limit at this time inasmuch as the public would immediately demand a reduction in admission prices and that It would cheapen the brand of baseball. These same officials admitted on the floor that their payrolls probably would be considerably less than the $6,500 a month recommended for that class. 47 Players Report as Cut Bank Opens Basketball Drills Special to The Tribune.

Several Inches of snow in the mountains some 60 miles from the football battlefield sent temperatures down and enthusiastic forecasters thought the day would bring an ideal football day, clear and cool. No less interested than the opposing players were some 100,000 customers, who were all set to establish a season's attendance record in the stadium which has not been filled since the Olympic games. Notre Dame reached Los Angeles in prime physical condition, in contrast to the condition prevailing part of the way on the westward Journey, whehlts train presented the appearance of a hospital unit. The warm air of the desert and a friendly Arizona sun seemed to have combined to rout the flu germs threatening Coach Hunk Anderson's peace of mind. Coach Howard Jones took his Trojan players away from the noise and excitement of the city to an unannounced seaside retreat and there they will remain until Just before the game.

The Southern California players are hale and hearty. Notre Dame continued a slight favorite at odds of 10 to 7 and 10 to 8.

The Copyright. 1932. by the north American Carr to Sprint It has Hjen a long time since the track knew an athlete as versatile as Billy Carr, the Pennsylvania runner who ended the440-yard and the 400-meter reign of big Ben Eastman last summer.

Carr was picked as the smoothest piece of running machinery in the Olympic games as he cracked the old 47-seoond mark at almost every start. Now Lawson Robertson, his coach, says Carr will be returned to the old 100 and 200-meter distances next spring. "Carr, you know, first began as a sprinter," Robertson said. "I switched him into the longer distance because he had as well as speed, and we had all the 100 and 200 meter entries any nation would want. "I won't say that Bill will set any new world's records at the shorter range, but he will always be hard to beat.

There- is almost no waste motion In his running, and with his durability he will be especially hard to outrun over the 200-meter route." Carr's final sprint at Palo Alto and later at Los Angeles, slipping by Eastman without the slightest show ot extra effort, remains a picture of form perfection, which few who happened to be present will ever forget. Western Zeal Los Angeles will be about 60 percent madhouse today, with 100,000 spectators peering down from the massive Olympic stadium as Notre Dame and Southern California go to war. Only those who have visited this sector know what football frenzy really is. The same emotional flow features many football centers in the south, but there is no place in the south to park 100.000 spectators. Back In July, as the last Olympic games were starting, you could open up an argument at any moment about the Notre Dame-Southern California meeting.

It was easy enough to see that long ago both teams would be exceptionally strong, with two fast moving, massive lines in action. It was the havoc the South Bend line turned on against the Army that started the trouble, for the Cadets. Southern California's big forwards will be harder to break. It will be Interesting. In the ensuing postmortems, to see how the two forward walls split up the honors of the day.

Howard Jones said last rummer that he had no worry about his line. When I met Ernie Smith, his giant tackle, I could see part of the answer. Smith is somewhere around 6 feet 4 in height and somewhere around 225 in weight, and yet he looked on the lean side. At least there was no show of surplus weight. He has a pair of hands which can palm watermelons, and the right pair of hands means a lot In football.

(U.fi) Prlmo Camera of Italy won a hard, close fight Friday night from King Levin-sky of Chicago in their second meeting at Chicago stadium.

The fight proved three things, first that Camera not only better than Levinsky. but that he has learned to box and must be reckoned a contender in the heavyweight flight: second, that Levinsky has more courage than most men. and third that Le vinsky is funnier than the man mountain from Italy. A crowd of 14.000 persons saw pugi lism's two greatest freaks lambast each other for 10 rounds which were as filled with thrills as they were with laughs. Camera weighed 216 pounds, Levin sky a mere 197.

It was the second time they naa fought and the second time Camera had outswung the wild swinging fish peddler of Maxwell street. Friday night's decision was more popular than the first, however. Although Camera left the ring amid a chorus of boos it was not because the de cision was disputed, but because he had done considerable roughing. Levinsky, who does everything in a prize rins so wrong that he often becomes right, gave giant Italian a scare by actually reaching his chin twice in the first round and staggering him both times. Once Camera almost went down.

From then on, however, the battle became Just a matter of punch trading. Levinsky beat Camera's body until It was scarlet. Camera pounded the kingflsh's face until it looked like raw beefsteak. In several rounds the king took a terrific beating, but never backed up. Many who went to the fight to laugh at Camera's big feet and Le-vinsky'a awkwardness stayed to marvel at the Italian's Improvement as a boxer and to laud Levlnsky's courage in leading the fight to a man so apparently his superior In every respect.

Camera's ereatest improvement was in his left Jab, which he flicked to King's face time after time. Lewis Beats Dial PHOENIX. Dec. 9. U.R Knocking Tuffy Dial, Sioux City, to the' floor "for' three unfinished counts.

And part of this assignment will be a forward pass defense that can stop a high-class passing attack In which four or five passers and four or five receivers are above the average skill. Speed and Action Almost every early winter argument opens up with the old debate as to which is the fastest game the game that demands the most continued action.

One correspondent goes beyond this debate In asking that these games be listed in order. The list must Include football, basketball, hockey, baseball, lacrosse, track and field, tennis, golf, wrestling, squash, water polo and boxing. When it comes to combined speed and action, I should say that hockey comes first and basketball second. There is much more continued speed and action in hockey and basketball than in football or baseball. A football game usually takes up 2 hours for the four 15-minute periods.

But in this time only 12 or 13 minutes ever find the ball moving. Tennis isn't far from third place. When It comes to rough action, water polo is close to the top.
