Inniimn nuiinrn lin i BIG-TIMERS 01 PROGRAMHERE : Crowd to be non-Partisan, Is Forecast; Patchin And Sugai Clash ' ' Recalling that the American Legion's first wrestling, show a week ago was a "howling suc cess" In more' ways than one, an - eten' greater number of fans are . expected to flock to the second program under the "new deal" at the armory tonight. Some of the howling last Tuesday night was aimed at the -referee, hut much also was called forth by the per formances given on the mat by the Tarbus contestants. . Two seasoned gladiators who long ago ceased to care whether they wrestled "clean" or over looked a rule or two, or whether the crowd applauded or booed, are arrayed against each other In the "main spot." They are Billy Ed wards, the Kansas City butcher boy. and Bob Kruse, of Portland and Oswego. . Edwards recently introduced himself here by winning from George Wilson, the colorful ex footballer, and on that .occasion the! crowd was pulling for Wilson, but as between two old campaign ers like Edwards and Kruse, who cares? Kruse has been here a num ber of times find local fans are thoroughly advised as to his abil ity. Either of these men rates a t6pspot in any wrestling arena in the country, and their meeting as sures the fans of some excitement, In one way or another. An equal amount of pyrotech nics and the same outlook for a non-partisan attitude on the part of the crowd, )a bound up in the "Bunny" Martin-"Sallor" Franti bout which will precede the main event. ' , The match which will give fans theUSopportunity to shout for a favosfe is the opener, in which Dori $ugai and "Chub" Patchin will flash. They are both local boys both have their friends; and victory-or defeat mean more to them, for they are both more or less new to the game and am bitious to go places. Patchin has had more experience as a profes sional" than has Sugai, but on the other hand the Japanese boy's ex ceptional strength must be reck oned with. -Up to Monday night no fin"JH de cision had been heached as to the referee . for tonight's matches. Vera Harrington, who aroused the crowd" 8 Ire when he decided the blow that -enabled Pat Reilly to defeat Ray Frlsbie was legally hit with the elbow instead of illegally ; with the fist, was injured the fol lowing night while officiating in Pprtland, and may not be able to c$me. Several capable men are undc- consideration, according to members of the Legion wrestling committee.

In 1925 Llnfield won 3 to 0. They will play here Sat orday afternoon. Despite defeats for the last seven years, the "dope" actual ly favors Llnfield this year.

Saturday's clash promises to be a low-score game. Llnfield's line has come through with defensive play that has allowed only two touchdowns In three games with Whitman, Pacific Lutheran and Pacific university. The Bearcats have demonstrated their defen sive strength In holding Oregon State to a low score. 'For scoring possibilities Lever will depend upon Roy Helser, elnitive halfback from Portland. who twice crossed Pacific's goal.

Oregon City Game is Set FridayNight Oregon City's gridiron warriors reported to be worthy successors of the pigskin chasers who have made the city by the falls 'a con tender for state honors in past seasonswlll visit Salem Fridajr night to meet the. so far unde feated Salem high eleven. The change from Saturday to Friday was announced Monday, by pon Coons, Salem high sports -manager. , Little Information about tho Oregon City team hr been re ceived here but Coach Leonani Mayfield, who took over the job there last year after success in other parts of the state, can e counted on to present a well drilled combination. Coach, H o 1 1 1 s Huntington's squad came through the Albany game last Weekend with, practic ally no new injuries and should be at Its maximum strength against Oregon City. The team showed much improvement over its per formance against Bend the pre vious week, and the fans may look for still more punch and precision Friday night. Tax Ratios are Established by State Officials In compliance ! with a new law enacted at the 1933 legislature the state tax commission this year will make its tax levy for 1934 in November instead of in December as. has "beep the prac tice in the past. - The new 3aw authorizes the payment of( taxes in four quar terly installments. Legislators de clared that this law would prove beneficial to taxpayers and prob ably would reduce materially the tax delinquencies in the various counties. V, that the trouble was not started by students, but by "young fel--lows about town" who may or may not have attended Salem high at some time. The hih school is unfairly blamed for others' acts which of course does not absolve Salem Itself of the blame. An editorial from the Albany Democrat-Herald- "In its game with Albany last night the Salem high school foot ball team demonstrated its prow ess in no uncertain fashion. It is -a powerful aggregation, with a splendid line, fleet backs, excel- - lent Interference, blocking and . tackling. It overwhelmed Albany - beeause it was the better team and .Albany has no. alibis. - "The Salem team's only weak ness is violation of the rules. ..These violations, drew heavy ,pen : altles. For unnecessary roughness -' and holding," the team 'was penal- iced frequently. It is too bad that J he team has this tendency, be ause it does not need to break the rules to win. ! "Another thing that marred the game were the several near riots that tent hundreds of students flocking across the field on fre- - quent occasions. These outbreaks spoiled . the game for the many . patrons who went to the field to see a football game. The trouble started when Salem students be- . gan stealing the caps of the Al bany high school bandsmen. It de- . tracted interest from the game ' and turned splendid and color- ' f ul game Into a rout "This writer has seen Albany high school meet opponents in many Oregon towns and cities but Salem Is the only place where its .students are not treated with courtesy. Salem should do some thing about it." The Albany : editor offers some valid criticism, and we are only sorry that he haa over- stepped himself and added some unfair criticism, for it detracts' from the effectiveness of that . v which is valid. There is no question bat that the cap-steal-las; w a Inexcusable, and marred the last portion of a : good football game by diverting ' ' attention from the contest . which the spectators came to : What makes it still more de plorable is the opportunity It gives Salem's perennial critics the Albany editor among tbem to cite one more instance of "Sa lem rowdyIsm." The unfortunate part Is-that Salem high erowds have been rowdy in the pasthave done a lot better the last few years, and here is a new blot to spoil the record. - The first point of unfairness . Is that the editor knows, or - should have found out before - going to bat In the matter, Then the Albany editor takes fhft Salem team to task because it was penalized frequently and severely, seeking to give tne im pression that the Salem boys sought to win by unfair means or played "dirty." Rather he should compliment the officials, all of whom were Salem residents, on their fairness. Most of the penal ties were for holding, which is a bad habit some of Salem's green linemen have. It is a sign of in experience, not of desire to win unfairly. We seem to recall an an nouncement that one penalty was for unnecessary roughness, but the rule book lists a number of thlnes under this heading, some of which often occur due to over zealousness and not to a tenden cy to "play dirty." We doubt if the Albany editor can say of his own knowledge that any "rough work" took place. If it did, that also is Inexcusable and we would be the last to defend it, but if he doesn't really know something, then he is guilty of "unnecessary roughness." Albany is perhaps the last town in the world that should upbraid Salem for unsports manlike conduct A 1 b a n y, where Salem teams used to win football games, then fight off an angry mob to get to the railroad station. - o All of which does not alter the fact that Salem Is wearing a new black eye, nor that, had the alter cation become slightly more seri ous, Salem high might under the present state athletic association rules, have been disbarred from interscholastic competition for another half year as it was not so long ago. Disagreeing with the Albany editor on many points as we do, we agree fully that "Salem should do something about It."
