STEVE HAMAS
Gets KNOCKOUT
OVER L0UCHRAN
BY LEO II. PETERSEN
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Jan. 16. - No,
Tommy, they never come back.
You should be convinced of the
old axiom Of the ring. Everybody
thought You were through when
King Levinsky took you over two
weeks ago. You probably are think
ing so yourself now that Steve
Hamas has duplicated the feat of
the Chicago fish peddler.
But the failure is nothing to be
ashamed Of. You made a grand
stand and died game.
Take off your hat to Steve. He
must have something. When he
knocked you out in the second
round Of that scheduled l0-round
bout at the Garden last night he
looked like he might some day
bring the heavyweight champion
Ship Of the world back to the
United States. Of course, he has
a long way to go, but he's off to
nice start. A record of "a knock
outs in his 81 professional bouts
testifies to that.
The 5000 people saw 1t coming In
the first round, Tommy. And when
he shot that hard straight right
over TO your chin a minute after
the second round began, 1t was
taps. The crowd liked the way you
came back after the nine count.
But 1t was only question OF time
then.
The former Penn State football
star tore into you again, this time
with a furry of rights and lefts.
You went down for the nine count
again. Your knees were pretty
wobbly when you got UP.
Once more Steve caught You
with those lightning rights and
lefts and when you went down this
time Referee Gunboat Smith
stopped the bout. That was ! min
ute and 43 seconds after the round
had begun, Tommy, in case you
don't know just what happened.
They gave you mighty chez.
when you left the ring. There were
cheers for Steve. too.
Maybe 1t would be best not to
try to get that return match you
said you wanted when you got to
your dressing room. Steve said he
would give it to you. but he'll be
even better then. and you aren't
getting any younger. At 80, after
giving IL years of honest toll to
your trade, you deserve a good rest.
But even If you don't take 1t,
remember, Tommy, that they never
come back.

Joe Saldivar, a chunky little Mex
lean who used to be a good light
weight, is proud Of the fact that
he has never been knocked off his
feet in a boxing match.
He kept his record clear last
night in q 10 round bout with Al
Alicante and did bit better. walk
Ing off with the decision which he
richly deserved for standing up
against bigger opponent and one
Of the dirtiest fighters who ever
stepped into the local ring.
That sounds q bit hard but 1t
is true. Alcante's work last night
could only be approached by an
exhibition given here one time by
Sailor Fay Kofsky. which cost the
latter long suspension. Alicante
bounced a few low ones, wrestled
and mauled Saldivar, and at every
opportunity hceled, butted and
f, gouged.
4 Why a boxer with any ability,
and who has the advantage of
height. weight and reach on his
opponent, should feel 1t necessary
to fight as Alicante did. is beyond
us. Moreover Bill Tackett had to
stop the fight in the third round,
to remove illegal grease from Al
cante's face.
Saldivar fought q great defensive
fight, now and then varying 1t with
wicked smashes TO the stomach and
jaw which shook the Filipino who
looked more like a light heavy
weight last night than a middle
weight Little Joe withstood a
flock Of solid smashcs delivered
with all the force of Alicante be-
hind them, and he never WINGED.
He made Alicante look foolish
time and again when the Filipino
rushed to deliver his fayorite blow,
left hook to the body. Saldivar
evaded the rush more often than
not. leaving Alicante to founder
around the ring by the force OF
his own momentum.
Saldivar's victory was not alto
gether present becaust OF AL
cante's foul tactics. That weighed
heavily in the verdict, but Joe
legally earned at least a draw.
In justice to Bill Tackett, 1t
must be said that Alicante was not
putting anything over on him. He
let the Filipino get away with it,
not wishing to see him suspended
as long as Salvidar was not being
hurt, but the calling down the
boxer took in the dressing room
made his cars siZzle. It's a safe
bet that II he ever appears In the
ring with Tackett again, he will
fight clean.
However. the big palooka (Tac-
kett, this time, and not Alcante)
was all wet in his semi-final de-
cision which he gave TO Santiago

Oats Make Good
Hay and Silage

On many Ohio farms this year the
cat crop is so short that binder har-
vesting will be difficult, the yield low,
and the grain light in weight. Har-
vesting the crop for hay or silage may
be more profitable method of hand
ling it, if good use can be made of
the feed.
Dat hay is seldom made in Ohio be-
cause the clovers and grasses usually
supply all the hay needed. Occasion
ally, i'll an emergency, oat hay has
been made. West of the Rocky
Mountains, however, oat hay is as
common as timothy is here. Out
there, it is regarded highly as a
roughage
The feeding value of oat hay de-
pends somewhat upon the stage of
maturity during which it is harvested,
says L. +. Thatcher, associate agrono-
mist at the Ohio Experiment Station.
If cut in the soft dough stage of the
kernel, it will be equal to mixed clover
and timothy, containing about 8
to 9 per cent crude protein. Analysis
Ct oat hay cut at various stages shows
that the protein declines and the
crude fiber increases as the plant
natures. This is particularly true for
the straw because the feed nutrients
in the stem and leaves move into the
filling and ripening grain. Experience
ed farmers have noticed that oat
straw from poorly filled crop has a
higher feeding value than from crop
that matured a good yield Of heavy
nutrients did not have chance to be
translocated in the case of the poorly
filed crop.
For feeding to dairy COWS, oats
should be in the milk to the soft dough
stage of the kernel when cut for hay.
For stock cattle or horses, it may be
cut at little later date.
Oats make splendid silage. This
was demonstrated in a practical way
last year on the farm of Mr.. George
Wilber, near Marysvilie, Ohio. Mr..
Wilber harvested his oats in the
dough stage and put them at once in
to the silo. The silage was equal in
appearance, palatability, and feeding
value to good corn silage. 1t was fed
to sheep last winter. Mr.. Wilber was
so pleased with the results that he
