Indians Ready For Season's Toughest Tilt Grants Pass Eleven Will Be Foe Tonight In Last Home Game On Schedule Roseburg high school Coach Cece Sherwood said last night his squad of Indians are ready today for their roughest game of the season tonight's homecom ing tilt with the Grants Pass Cavemen. Both mentally and physically, the Roseburg squad is up for this one. This Is the last home appearance for the Indians this season and for 13 seniors on the squad, tonight is the last time they will play a game on Flnlay field. Coach Sherwood said the Injury plague which has bother ed Roseburg all season seems to have been licked, with all 27 players slated to suit up. No word has come out of Grants Pass, following their de feat at the hands of a hot Kla math Falls club last week. Prior to that time, Grants Pass was figured again as the team to beat in the state. With the chances that Grants Pass will be suffering a mental letdown this week, the Roseburg squad hopes to get the Jump on the invaders tonight. The Indians will be out to score first then stay ahead. Score Tied Last Year Prior to last Friday, the Cave men had swept by all opposition with comparative ease. But a glance at their schedule reveals that only two teams, Medford and Klamath Falls, were of first class caliber. Klamath demon strated clearly that Grants Pass can be beaten, and Roseburg coaches have been hammering away at that theme all week. Any doubts that the underdog Roseburg squad has more than a chance against the heavier Cavemen may be dispelled by Jointing to last year's score.

Sutherlin Gridders To Face Coquille Saturday The Sutherlin high football team will climax its first year In 11-man competition tomorrow by hosting Coquille in a non loague game to be played at Sutherlin, starting at 2 p.m. Coquille is rated as one of the weaker competitors In the strong Oregon coast "A" league. The Rod Devils were beaten, 14 0, by Roseburg in the season opener, and since then have had only in diffeercnt success. However, because of Suther lin's Inexperience In regulation football, Coquille will be favored to win. In other county football games, Myrtle Creek will travel south to Kerbv tomorrow for a JDJ lea gue tut.

Oregon's Coach Jim Aiken gave final proof of that yester day when he devoted his last heavy drill to passes with the of fensive unit, headed by quarter back Earl Stelle, pitching against the Duck defensive bloc. Only a light running drill is on tap for today. CORVALLIS, Ore., Nov. 4 m Two Oregon State regulars won't be around when the Beav ers tackle Idaho in Moscow Sat urday. Coach Kip Taylor, naming his traveling squad for today's de parture, left off the names of injured Don Mast and Dick Vail lancour. MOSCOW, Idaho, Nov. 4 WP) "Ten players injured. . . .not enough players in suit to hold a scrimmage." That was just part of the blues being sung last night by Idaho Coach Dixie Howell as he await ed arrival of the Oregon State college invaders for Saturday's clash. The only bright thing in the picture, Howell moaned, is the weather. The prediction is, for "clear and warm" at kickoff time. Sidelined with injuries during the week have been five backs, including sparkplug Johnny Bro gan, and an equal number of line men. Some of the boys may re vive by gametime, however, Howell admitted. BERKELEY, Calif., Nov. 4 (IP) California may go into its football game Saturday with Washington State without the services of both its lust string ends. But the odds makers lengthen ed the points by which they fa vored the Bears to take the Cou gars to 33. This was d touchdown advance in 24 hours. Norm Pressley, who returned to the lineup for the UCLA game and played a magnificent game at end for California, is out again with a muscle pulled in Tues day's drill. The other end, George Souza, hurt In the Wis consin game, stll was a doubt ful starter. Roy Ward ts expected to re place Pressley Saturday. Jack Swaner, out a great part of this year, is working out light and may be ready by next week's Oregon game.

PEETZ Phone 279 920 S. Stephens Golden Bears Lcok Like Sure Bowl Entrants Cougars Rated Losers In Saturday Game; Oregon Favored Over Huskies By BOB MYERS LOS ANGELES, Nov. 4-4P) Everyone Is shooting at the Unl versify of California and its un interrupted drive toward the Rose Bowl but this week the Golden Bears should rack up their eighth straight victory of the season without undue exer tion. An improving but still under manned Washington State squad takes a bite at the Bear hide at Berkeley and interest in the Pa cific Coast conference Bowl race naturally rides with any game Cal engages from here on out. Of greater portent as far as a tighter struggle goes, and carry ing bright hues of roses, too, is the conflict here between Stan ford and the University of South ern California. Each has dropped one confer ence game and both cling firmly to hopes that brave California may falter at least once in the coming three-week drive down the stretch, permitting one or the other to slip .by and on to the Pasadena date with the Big Ten invader. The Bruins of UCLA, which last week Joined USG on the list of California victims, hasn't for saken all its dreams, either, but they get another week to sleep. They draw a bye this Saturday.. Oregon Favored Oregon lost a 43-31 decision to rapidly improving Iowa in the mid-west last week, indicating that Jim Aiken's Webfoots should be favored over Washington at Portland tomorrow and might even give California a rough aft ernoon one week hence. Idaho invites trouble with Ore gon State at Moscow, and Mon tana should get past East Wash ington college at Missoula. Getting back to the leaders: California, once Washington State is out of the way, faces double trouble without rest from Oregon and traditionally tough Stanford; Southern California's last conference foe after Stan ford is UCLA; Stanford gets a breather from Idaho after USC and just before entertaining Cal ifornia, and UCLA encounters threatening Washington and then goes into ils cross town duel witii the Trojans of USC. California unquestionably dom inates the Rose Bowl race. This being a season of surprising up sets all over the land, however, it Is doubtful that conservative Cal has reserved room space in Pasadena for the holidays just yet, 'i Six Football Games Slated Here Saturday Saturday football games slated for Finlay field include a "main event" tilt between the Rose burg Jayvee. Warriors and Myr tle Point junior varsity, begin ning at 2 p.m. Preseding the Jayvee game, Coach Eddie Wyatt's seventh graders will meet Cottage Grove youngsters, starting at 12:30. rour games, billed as prelim inaries on Saturday's football card, will match grade school teams in heavyweight and pee- wee divisions. Minnows do not grow to be 1strra ficVi iViotr ora o Hlctlrif species themselves. the coast's best quarterback reached such fever heat here that a snorts' editor was burned in effigy. f ive hundred shouting, leering college of the Pacific students last night found Bill Lelser, sports editor of the San Francis co Chronicle, guilty of slighting Eddie LeBaron, , Pacific's great quarterback. They used a copy or Lelser s sports page as a torch to set fire to his effigy hanging from a lamppost. The outburst was touched off by the action of the Northern California football writers last Monday in deciding to back Ce leri, the University of California winning quarterback, for All Am erica honors. Two weeks pre viously the same group had se lected LeBaron. The switch was motivated by Celeri's perform ances for California against UCLA and Washington. Style shown JACKSON.

Dusette And Weaver Will Top Attractive Wrestling Bill At Roseburg Armory Tomorrow A coast champiomhip match between titlist' Buck Weaver and challenger George Dusette will headline Saturday wrestling show at the Roseburg armory Saturday, but three added at tractions may also prove of considerable interest among Doug las county grappling followers. The Great Atlas, a lormer t "Mister America" and one of the most conceited matmen in t'as business, will make his local de but against Karl Myers, rugged Minnesota mat ruffian. Atlas is a real muscle-man, a weightlifter who believes he should be on exhibition at a buck a throw just to see his "beautiful physique." He stands only five feet, nine inches, but possesses 19-inch biceps and a 53-inch chest. But regardless of his "cockiness," the 195-pound guy is a rugged wrestler and his full-nelsons have rendered many opponents help less. He is not a villain, but is almost certain to be extreme'v unpopular with local fans. In Myers, Atlas will find a formida ble foe of the "Belcastro" type who uses a flying body scissors with unusual success. Myers has only appeared here once before. Jimmy Gonzales, the Spanish Hawaiian, comes here with a fine reputation, but will be appearing in the Pacific Northwest for the first time in his career. He meets Pete Bartu, a rough-and-tough Chicago grappler. Major interest, however, is based on the Weaver-Dusette bout that has developed into a hot rivalry of "grudge" proportions. Weaver beat Dusette by trickery in the coast light-heavyweight tournament which he -won. And the last meeting saw Weaver pro tect his title by virtue of back pedaling for the final minutes of the match. Increasing the time limit to an other half hour, the French Canadian is confident he can beat Q. Why is Dutch Boy Quick-drying Enamel : like gossip?. ' A. It spreads so fast and easy!
