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.

quick response to Owen D. Young's
call for football to help the unem

the east's outstanding football schools,
the Western conference had laid the
groundwork for more battles and vari
ous other colleges and even profes
sional teams had fallen In line.
Tho Army-Navy game at New York,
December 13, originally the one big
charity clash, now takes place as the
climax of a great footbnll festival
with two gridiron tournaments In
volving Yale, Dartmouth, Holy Cross
and Brown on the one hand and

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.

Mad Play, Famed Horse
COLLINSVILLE, 111, 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. .
