KENNEDY AND
KONzE BATTLE
HIGHLY RATED

Extra supports have been ordered
for the ring at the Imperial Valley
Athletic club this week, SO as to take
no chances when the two big fell
lows, Les Kennedy and AL Konze.
get prancing around on the boards
Friday night.
Both men will weigh around 1870
pounds and that, with Bill Tackett's
455 pounds will make considerable
beef on the hoof.
The timekeeper has requested TO
have the gong moved back three or
four rows, not wanting TO find q
flock of behemoths in his lap il one
or more of the boys should fall out
OF the ring.
a few weeks ago Kennedy met
Paolino Uzcudun at Los Angeles and
ran into trouble in the fourth
round. Uzcudln, who has met all
the big shots, was too tough for the
coast boy. Too tough and too ex-
perienced.
This will be Kennedys first fight
since meeting Uzcudun and the
champion heavyweight os The state
is anxious to show the people that
man can be licked and come back.
champion to appear in bout in
He will be defending his title award
ed TO him by the California Athletic
Commission, for the rules of the
commission will not permit any
which his title is not at stake.
Konze, who was formerly q foot
ball star in the Northwest, has had
ii straight knockouts TO his credit
in rs many bouts at the Olympic
club in Los Angeles. AL is danger
Gus puncher A big, strong, husky
chap, he could make trouble for
any heavyweight If he can manage
TO land few blows on him.
The match has been made pos
sible through the friendship existing
between Harry Woodbury., match
maker for the local club, and Herb
White, Kennedy's manager. White
was formerly boxer in Woodbury's
stable before the war. and the two
have been buddics ever since.
Won Title Fairly
In making him tie state cham
pion the athletic commission did
not act until an elimination bout
had been held. Armando Emanuel,
San Francisco's entry, was matched
with al Moro, the boy trained by
Jim Jeffries. Moro won and was
then signed TO fight Kennedy, who
Knocked him out. He then beat
Dynamite jackson and Max Baer.
In the semi-final two more giants
will tangle. Old Chief Whitehorse,
the Yuma Indian. will meet Biff
Hoffman. The chief is one of those
fighters who goes along in mediocre
fashion and then gets remarkable

will remember the short work he
made of the big marine here last

Friday night, and Hoffman lives up
to expectations. there is certain to
be war party. The chief can hit

orthodox manner of boxing is a big
asset to him and a handicap to his
opponent.
In addition to the two top-liners,
Woodbury. has arranged for two
good preliminaries. Summer prices

pionship attraction and ladies with
escorts will be admitted to the arena

AN INDUSTRY THAT GREW.

on recent visit to the Island. Mr.,
and Mrs. Charles West OF Portland,
the orlginators Of RED Rock Cheese,
gave us a short interesting account OF
their industry which, by request. was
added TO by Mr.. VESTS sister, Mrs.
William Irle Of Portland, and is given
here not rs an advertisement for the
cheese-its reputation is long estab-
lished,-but to SHOW the possibilities
of small beginnings, mixed with per-
serverence, advertising and holding
true to quality.
In 1909, Mrs. West began making
the Red Rock cheese (Which by the
way received It's name from a large
rock In front OF their home which was
painted red) ON her kitchen stove, and
the first output was 10 pounds and as
the amount increased, was taken by
wheelbarrow to the street car and sent
into Portland miles distant AS the
business grew, they put up small
building and commenced on larger
scale, until now they have large
factory, fully equipped, use nine trucks
to collect the sweet milk from all over
Washington county
10 tons Of cheese has been the high
est amount sold in Portland in one
day.
There are five plants, at Portland,
Kent, Salem, Oakland and Los Angeles
which altogether keep so trucks busy,
and 1870 workers employed every day,
using as high as $4,000 pounds Of milk
in one day.
The old wheelbarrow is still In use,
but not to carry cheese to the station,
and our modest loyable Lady West has
turned her work over 10 machinery,
thus does the world move on-1n-
dustries are born with humble begin
nings and arrive at unbelievable pro-
portions in a short space of time.

ceeded all other localities. Others do
mating were, Colvas, vashon, Center,
Lisabeula, and Cross Landing. The
Portage Auxiliary also sent in large
donation.
The party at the hospital, Friday
was much enjoyed by those who at
tended. Tea was served to all yisi-
tors, while the Policeman's Band fur
nished music for the occasion. After
they finished playing the band visited
the children in the various wards
much to the delight of the little ones.

baskets at the two main doorways
were placed for money donations. All
those present enjoyed going through

Few Baseball Players Make
Good Golfers

WHEN a baseball player takes up
w golf he goes about 1t much the
same way that he plays baseball. Nat.
urally he grips club as he would a
rat. If the hands are close together
this Is not so bad. The worst fca.
ture of this is that he grips with the
palms Instead of the fingers.
The old fashioned way Of holding
a golf club was Just about the same
way that a baseball player grips. In
golf we soon learned that finger
grip was better and that by overlap
ping we could make the hands act
more us one which Is an additional
asset. Golfers with short fingers
might find 1t an advantage to stick
to the old fashioned grip but they
can still use finger grip.
