UNDERWAY WITH RACE

SAN FRANCISCO, May g. CUP)-
The San Francisco bay area yacht
racing season, despite wartime diff
ficulties. gets underway today with
the annual race from Belvedere to
Vallejo and back.
A smaller field was in prospect
in both the sailing and power boat
divisions because many shippers have
Joined the armed forces or had their
craft rcquiSitioned. The coast guard
and Navy will patrol the course not
only to aid in case of accident but
to see there is no sailing in re-
stricted zones.
There won't even be a gun to
start the race. GunpoWder is ra-
toned and yachting enthusiasts said
they had no wish to start invasion
or bombing rumors by firing the

The fact that Imperial was out

honor as a result of his second
undefeated basketball season in a
row. The Bulldog cagers stretched
their win streak we'll over 20 games

ORTIZ IS kAyO VICTOR
STOPS CANADA
CHAMP IN SIXTH

Ell Centro's scrappy little
bantamweight, Manuel Ortiz,
had another feather in his
cap Saturday after knocking
out Kenny Lindsey, champion
of Canada, after min. 80 sec
onds of the sixth round Friday night
at Hollywood Legion.
Ortiz brought out his big guns
in the fourth round and hit Lind
sey with everything but the corner
stool and in the sixth he erased
any questions when he stopped
Lindsey cold. The first three rounds
had been comparatively Slow but
the outcome was never in doubt
after Ortiz smashing attack in
the fourth.
Thus was diSpelled any chance
for Lindsey, who was rated by the
National Boxing association as No.
3 challenger to Lou Salica's crown,
to take over Ortiz coveted No.
position.
The valley bantamWeight stole
the spotlight long ago by becoming
amateur champion of the United
States and since he turned profess
sional his climb has been steady.
Ortiz entered the spotlight when
he stopped San Jose's Jackie ZURICH
when Zurich was at the pinnacle of
his career. Only recently Ortiz cop

weight from Tony Olivera.
The next stop on the schedule
of the bantamWeight who hits like

he gets the fight or not is a ques-

UP TO THEIR NAME
By GEORGE KIRKSEY

NEW YORK, May 9. (UP)
The Brooklyn Dodgers still
lead the National league to-
day, but they aren't playing
championship ball.
But there's one Dodger who plays
championship ball every day, win,
lose or draw. Hes First BaSeman
Doll Camilh, the solid man of the
Buns He was the National leagues
and the Dodgers most valuable
player last season and from early
indications he may well repeat this
year
Dark-skinned Dolf won the Dodg-
erS' Navy relief game from the
Giants yesterday, and then saved
it. too. He smacked his seventh
homer of the season in the seventh
and that proved to be the winning
run But Camilli had to make a
couple of fancy plays around first
base 10 insure that run would de-
eide the first twilight game in major
league history before the forty-Some
odd thousands at Ebbets Field.
Camilh made a spectacular catch
of Arky Vaughan's wild throw in
the eighth when the Giants were
pressing hard to tie the score. Then
he repeated in the same inning on
a throw by Pewee Reese.
On the whole the Dodgers haven't
been impressive despite their game
and half lead. Nine of their l6 vic
tories have been from the last-place
Phils and the Braves. Whit Wyatt,
who paced the Dodgers with % vic
tories. was credited with his first
victory Yesterday, but he staggered
around until he finally was taken
out in the seventh. WAITS control
isn't as sharp as last year and he
hasn't shown the speed he demon
strated a year ago. He has been
complaining of arm trouble.
The Brooklyn infield has been de-
cidedly unstable and Camilli has
saved many errors. Billy Herman
made two boots yesterday. one on
a double-play roller which nearly
proved costly.
Pittsburgh took the Cubs over the
Jumps. GA, Rip Sewell beating the
Bruins for the second time this
season. Vince DiMaggio hit homer

feet. And the time required isn't
because Melvyn Is slow on the
take, not after all the experience
he's had. It's because of Holly
wood censorship on kissing.
No kiss must last longer than
80 seconds and in that time an
actor has to get across that love
has entered his life Tin most pic
lures, for the first time). Oddly
enough, directors have found
that dialogue doesn't help much
to convey the idea Of falling in
love. Even in real life, man
who can't get the idea across In
80 seconds doesn't deserve a kiss.
On the other hand, IL the hero
and heroine clutch at each other

enough. audiences don't feel
cheated.
Half way between the torrid
kisses and comic ones are the ro-
mantle kisses. These can be al
most anything so long as they
convey that the hero and heroine
are in love.
But these present the biggest
problems to the actors. They
can't squash their features, those
famous profiles, out of shape, or
the audience will laugh. If they
grip each other too tightly or
muss each others hair, the CEN
sor may object. II they turn
their heads, shadows may be cast
under their eyes or chins and
make them look i'll or old or
double-chinned.
Hollywood kisses may seem far
away from real life. but kissing
manners have changed since mo-
ton pictures were born. And
Melvyn. as a past master Of the
art, has certainly done his bit.

into a kiss in full expectation of
good-natured boots and kissing
sounds from the gallery. The
comedy clinch requires a whole
hearted approach usually accom-
panied by Melvyn's eyebrows
raising a half inch. This indicates
pleased surprise and is good for
a laugh.
His torrid technique is another
matter. This requires careful
timing and a slower approach.
Truly hot kisses In real life may
last from five minutes to an
hour, but on the screen they can
only last half a minute.
Melvyn gets around offending
the Hays office by cutting his
kiss. What this means, to the
film-goer. is that Melvyn is sean
about to kiss his girl. AS their
lips are meeting the scene is cut
and a new action takes its place.
This is a tantalizing trick. but
