Picking Pinckert By Pap the Everything la all sot for the box lug events of tonight at the Elks Temple, to which each Elk Is prlv lleged to Invite two friends, and every Indication Is that the cxhlbt tlon of twenty roundo in four event will be one of the best ever put by the lodge. The participants In the main events arrived yesterday or this morning In excellent condition ana Herb Owen, the well known Eu gene matchmaker, arrived this aft ernoon enthusiastic over the ceptlonal card he has arranged. The full will start Immediately aftor a short selon of the Elks lodge. The Elks band will be hand with stirring airs, but there will be no feed In the basement of the temple following the card, as has been a feature of Elks' smokers in post years, for the main reason that Pete Blgham, the chef of such events wants to fights himself for once, and keep the odor of food from di tracting any attention of the fans from the efforts of the boxers, Heavy Card Hrheduled There will be a six round main event, a six round semi-final and two preliminary event of four rounds each. The 'semt-flnal will attract almost as much attention as the main event, for which the classy preliminaries will- whet the pugilistic appetite. Bobby Ambrose, of Salem, 12. Young Doc Snell, 135, of Albina Will be the competing mlt artists In the main event, whose reputa tion for cleverness and hard hitting presages six rounds of that up on the toe excitement, so character istic of the bouts each has par ticipated In In Oregon and Wash ington cities. The fast action and willingness of these men to change punishment In hopes winning Is expected to have the crowd In a frenzy. Fully aa much action and excite ment Is anticipated In the semi' final because of the reputation of Ray Morgan, 147, ot Portland and Jerry O'Neil, same weight, of Sal em, earned In fast goes. They are willing boxers, each of whom car ries a bad wallop, which Indicates a knockout Imminent all the time. Classy Preliminaries Herb Owen was particularly for tunate In lining up two such classy preliminaries. Buddy Am brose of Salem and Louie Nelson of Portland, 136 pounders, will open the show, and following this bout will come the event betroen those two sterling 13S pounders, Curley Johnson ot Albany and Ray Avery of Eugene. While no curb has been placed on tho Elks and tholr friends In giving way to ordinary excited en thusiasm during tonight's card, the lodge officers request that no one Jump out a window during tem porary delirium, and that the fans refrain from slinging chairs up to the celling and from slapping one another on the back so hard to knock false teeth out.

GOLF COURSE BIGS THIS FARMER RELIEF Grants Pass high school football team Is primed, cocked and loaded for the Medford squad when they meet In that city Saturday after noon and the Cavemen this week are working on their forward pass defense. Says the Grants Pass Courier, about the coming game: One encouraging feature about the play of the Cavemen this season, has been the work of the line. The Grants Pass for ward wall consistently held the heavier Klamath team In the game here two weeks ago and It was only by passing that - the Pelicans were able to, take that game. The weakness ot the Cavemen In pass defense In the Pelican game was so ob vious to even the most unin formed, that It could not have escaped the watchful eye of Coach Leonard Mayfleld. t The local fans can be sura that the Cavemen will not display the same weakness In the Medford contest. Klumath on Edge In the meantime Klamath Falls, with her eye on a district champ ionship, and ready to lay claims to stato title honors. Is whetting up Its offense and defense for the Burghermasters, when they play In that city October 24. Coach Burgher and his proteges. are taking Grants Pass as seriously aa If they were the team that stood between them and the world's title. and If there Is any over-confidence In the ranks, it Is not visible. Local football fans will be In terested to know that Salem high hns challenged Marsh field high for a game. The Salem team is a frank contender for the state title. The defl was issued after Coos Bay nosed out Medford and de feated Eugene. Corvallls high, which Medford meets at the end of the month. Is also a state title contender, and Is one of the chief obstacles to Salem In the Willamette valley. A large number of local fans and students will attend the game at ' Grants Pass. The team will leave by auto bus shortly after noon. Bogus Football Tickets Printed In San Francisco SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 15.

(AP) Mad Play, famous race horse ol other years, will run In no more cheap plater races, at least at Fair mount park. The entry clerk today had this ruling from the stewards: "Reject entry of Mad Play for future races, "He has kept the faith." Winner of approximately $130,000 In purses while .racing under the colors of Harry F. Sinclair's Rancocas stable, old Mad Play, under new owners, was entered Saturday in the last race on the program, with vic tory worth only 450 to the winner. Twelve horses went to the post. Mad Play could get no farther to the front than fourth, and he' passed the judges' stand with six horses ahead of htm. Aa he passed tha stand he went lame. The stewards knew Mad Play de served pleasant pasture, but they couldn't arbitrarily .order Jhe horse to pnsture. They could, and did, however, rule that the entry clerk reject entry of Mad Play for future ratco. It was reported at the track today that the present owners plan to turn Mad Play out to pasture. .

It was an Inevitable pro cess with long time rulers such as Bobby Jones and Big Bill Tilden stepping off their thrones, but the rest of the field has caught the spir it and made it a gala year for the new generation of tltlcholdcrs, The spectacular victory of Helen Hicks, 20-year-old Now York girl, over the five times winner of the na tional women's golf championship, Glenna Collett Vare, climaxed tho establishment of a complete new list of golfing champions in England and America.

TIu.e Precious Wnrdu It has reached a point in college football where many 'f not most of the "big league" head coaches can not or will not take any part of the public Into their confidence except through copyrighted, trade-mark-ren,tt.terrd outlets. S)orts writers seeking opinions and ! special stories hnve found them- I selves up against the reply; "I'm sor ry, out my contract won't permit me to talk or have my- name used." A few outstanding coachen have cunflVrntly refused to tie themselves up with exclusive rhannebi. A few xulegcs have taken steps to prevent Virlr head coaches from capitalizing neir reputations off the field, vli Olymoic Committee Mails Rule Books LOS ANGELES (AP) Fifty thous- sand official books governing the ' various events of the 1032 Olympic ; games here have been distributed , by William M. Henry, sports techni cal director of the Los Angeles or ganizing committee. Atlanta Boy Leads Kid Baseball Team From Wheel Chair athletic board remarked to me re cently, "On the one hand, we cannot blame coaches for taking advantage of the opportunities, legitimately, to make extra money by writing for the newspapers, speaking over toe .radio or endorsing various articles. On the other hand, we know abuses exist and doubt the wisdom of so m ch commercialism. ".?ut how can it be controlled, ex cept by public sentiment? The col lege Uh a famous coach, his talents and lUtme much In demand, may feel flattered or, If it raises objections, may lose the coach." Few football' coaches have been able to resist the overtures to com mercialize tftelr reputations.
