THE UAflTAJj JUUKNAL. SALEM. OKECiON CORVALLIS HOPES TO BLOCK SALEM HIGH FRIDAY TUESDAY, NUVEMBEK 21, 18B3 TORSON SQUAD BETTER AFTER EARLY LOSSES Corvallis high despite a 26 to 0 beating at the hands of Tillamook early In the season, Is expected to give Coach Hollis Huntington's men a real test of strength when fialem clashes with the Benton county outfit on Bell filed Friday afternoon of this week. Under the tutelage of Coach Torson the Spartans have made rapid strides In football knowledge and as a re sult feel confident of holding then heavy' opponents in check. In Edwards, right half, Corvallis has an excellent pass receiver. He holds a record of having missed but one toss all season. Patterson and Brown, fullback and left half back are the chief ball carriers for Corvallis. They exhibited a lot of power against Albany although the squad was beaten by the Hub City boys 20 to 13 in their annual Armistice day mix. There are no Joslins on the squad this year. Woody and Dick who played such an Important part In the defeat of Salem two years ago, having graduated Into the ranks of Oregon State college. The line which will probably face Salem will Include Floyd and Flint ends, Abraham and Martin tackles, Keiser and Webb guards and Lane center. Coach Torson with his entire squad was on the sidelines last Friday night and witnessed Salem's defeat of Tillamook. They were busy with pencil and paper taking notes and no doubt will devote their time during the balance of the week devising ways and means of stopping Nicholson, Whitermute, Salstrom & Co. Skits and Scratches BY FRED ZIMMERMAN Capital Journal Sports Editor Howard Maple, a member of the' Willamette Valley Officials asso ciation whose services are much In demand as an arbiter of gridiron contests, takes exceptions to a statement printed In this column last week that there Is any exces sive "piling on" of the ball carrier. He states, and correctly so, that as long as the ball carrier Is trying to make progress he is a proper victim for tackling. Nobody disputes that. It's after the ball carrier has hit the ground that the piling on occurs. It has happened during the present season and on one or two occasons right in front of one of the officials. We were not shooting at Maple or any particular official In the previous article. If any of them doubts the correctness of the criticism let them sit In the stands and watch a game or two. "I call them as I see them," declares Maple. An admirable way to offi ciate and one which will result In the minimum of trouble and criti cism. We might rejoin that we write It as we see it, too. While the records show Salem high has as much right to partici pate in the so-called championship game in Portland Thanksgiving day as any squad In the state, there should be no particular bull movement on the part of local backers of the squad until the sea son's schedule has been completed. Assuredly the Portland authorities should be Informed that Salem wants to be considered. , However the Immediate objective Is defeat ing Corvallis next Friday afternoon a task that will be difficult despite the record of the two squads during the season to the contrary. One can Just hear Coach "Mush" Torson telling his players In the dressing room around about 1:30 Friday afternoon: "There ore those birds from Salem; they think they are good, being considered lor a state championship game in Portland. Go out there and make them look like a bunch of spavined work horses." Reports from Medford state the Pearplckers would probably de cline any invitation for a Thanks giving day clash in Portland. On the other hand they would invito either Bend or Salem to make a trip south on that day for a clash there. Medford is a red hot foot ball town and such a game as pro posed would certainly prove attrac tive. Medford has not been beaten this year and has Ashland remain ing on Its schedule. Medford beat Klamath Falls and the latter de feated Ashland. Whether the com pettion is as tough In southern Oregon as it is In the Willamette valley is doubtful Anvwav the Webfoots don't need to abandon all hope. They were beaten by Troy 53 to 0 In 1931; 33 to 0 last year and 26 to 0 this sea son. If the margin of victory con tinues to decline by the same ratio, It won't be many years until Oregon should at least break even.

Gladstone took advan tage of Donald fumbles in the first half to score two touchdowns and lead at the half, 14-0. The Inexper ienced Donald boys came right back In the second half to battle on even terms with vicious drives and a de fense that surprised the home town. Gladstone's speed merchants won by running clear around the Donald defense. Donald claims the state football championship for two room schools, and any team contesting this claim Is requested to write Ben Heinz, Donald, Ore.

SHRINE GROUP SEEKING BEST DRAWING CARD The team which is considered the best attraction and which will bring the greatest amount of rev enue to the fund being raised for the Shrine hospital for crippled children, will likely get the bid to meet tne Portland Interscnolastic champions In the . metropolis Thanksgiving day. This was the concensus of opinion following a meeting held In Portland yesterday by the high school principals of that city. The choice has apparent ly narrowed down to three cities Salem, Bend and Medford. The latter place, however, states it will probably decline the nomination it tendered. Neither Medfard nor Salem has completed Its schedule, each team having one more game to play. In formation, apparently from a re liable source, received In Salem Monday indicated Coach Hunting ton's men were being looked upon with extreme favor by the powers that be and that a win over Cor vallis Friday would apparently set tle the matter. Backers of the local high school point out that Salem has never been selected to meet the Portland ers, although on one or two occa sions the squad was as strong as any In the state. Proximity to Port land Is another point being urged by local fans.
