PXBE EIGHT BJEDFORD SCTL TRIBTTyE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER Tl, 1932. Ashland Normal and Pacific U. Gridders Clash Here Tomorrow EVENLY MATCHED SQUADS OPPOSED IN OPENING GAME Coaches Hope for Dry Field for Fast Play Sons Line Averages 183 Lbs. and Badgers 181 Game at 2 (By tstlll Phlpps) SOUTHERN OREGON NORMAL SCHOOL, Ashland, Oct. 14. (Spl.) Two groat football tea ma are today anxiously awaiting the opening whit tle whlfh senda Pacific university against the Southern Oregon Normal In Medford at p. m. tomorrow on Tan Scoyoc field la Southern Ore gon's first exhibition of college foot ball this year. - Both the Sons and the Badgers are ; In fine condition and on edge for the classlo battle which will mark the meeting of the two elevens at prac tically even odds. In case the rain clouds which have been threatening for the last 48 hours let rain fall nei ther outfit will have any appreciable advantage from play on a wet field, Coach Howard Hohson of the Sons . and Coach El don Jenne of the Badg ers hope for a dry field so that their preferred Warner system of "razzle dazzlft" formations will work to the best advantage. Kant Game Expected If Jupiter Pluvlus Is In a kindly mood and puts his rain can away until after the game. Southern Ore- ; gon fans should be In for some of the most sensational footoall ever flashed on the local gridiron. Passes, reverses, spinners and dashing runs by fast, deceptive ball-tot ers make up the characteristic offenses of both aggregations should provide a full hour of thrills for a near-capacity crowd If the field la not sloppy. Interesting sidelights on the game are that It marks the debut of Hob son's machine this season as well as the first clash between football teams of the two schools. Hobson and Jenne will oppose each other as mentors for the first time since Jenne left Washington high In the Portland Interscholaatlo loop, where bis teams vied with those from Ben son 'Tech tutored by Hobson. Two more evenly matched teams never stood face to ?ace at a klckoff. Tha Sons' line will average right close to 183 pounds while the Badg ers will hit a mean at 181 pounds to the man. The bacflelda, while not so close In weight, appear to be about the same on paper at least. Hobson'a starting backs average 178 pounds while those of Jenne hit at 168, but what the Badgers lack In weight la made up In speed and the finished execution of the tricky for mations used by Jenne offset the difference of a few pounds. In addi tion, the Paolflo buck field Is made up ox seasoned veterans In every position while Hobson will have three sew men and one lettorman, the flashy negro, Claude Hlnes. Reserves Must Walt The last minute onslaught made en first string positions by the re serves In scrimmage sessions all week may mean that some of them are likely to see action before the game la over, but It la probable that Hob son will use his most experienced performers at the beginning. The Teachers' lineup will likely be prac tically the same as the one which opened against California Agglea In Sacramento two weeks ago with the fast coming reserves being held ready to go Into the fray at the first sign of any weakening. Hobson will use big Frank Sapp, 100, former all-Northwest conference star, at one end and either Elton Forncrook, 170, or Bob Patterson at tha other wing post. Patterson Is a letterman of the same poundage as Forncrook but the latter played the Aggie game while Patterson was kept out with a crippled ankle so .ha may get In call In spite of the great comeback made by Patterson this week. Sapp Is Hobaon's crack pass receiver and doea moat of the punt ing. Wlllard Jones and Curt Beck ham are the reserves. Balko.lo Is Olant Balkovlo, veteran and former Ore gon freshman star, will star at tackle. He weighs close to the 200 mark. His running mate will be Harvey Oakes, who stands stx feet four and tips the beam at 910. Oakes was a Portland all-star for Benson Tech last year. Lee McConnell, 170, and Ross Carter, 190, will be ready to go In the game should the need for more tackle strength arise. "Swede" Anderson, Mediord's spec- taeular lineman, will start at guard. ; Anderson la a veteran for the Sons I and a former Oregon frosh sensa tion. He weighs 103 and la one of the most outstanding defensive men ever to play In a Sons' forward wall. Dwlght Patterson, two-year veteran, appears to have a slight edge at the other guard assignment, although he has been given a hectlo battle for starting honors by Roan Green and Earl Hank Ins. Patterson will go Into the game at 170, while Green weighs 170 and Han kins only 181. ! Con Mahoney, little 150-pound cen ! ter, will start the game and Medford ; fans are In for some fine examples 1 of brilliant defensive p!ay If the scrappy little Irishman functions against the Badgers as he did In 1 Sacramento. Mahoney made quite a name for himself In the south after : giving his opponent a 80-pound ad- vantage and Uun drove him ragged, : breaking through to smear tho Aggie ' backs behind the line of scrimmage. Lyal Jones, 190, Is the alternate at 1 the pivot post. I nines to Start In the backfleld will be Claude Hlnes, 170, colored passing ace and speedy ball carrier, at quarterback Tommy McKltrlck. triple-threat half back, will get the call. He Is a shifty i runner of 183 pounds who does a j large share of the ball carrying m. running plays. The othev halfback i will be Cliff McLean, elusive Indian i safety man, who gut manjr thrUl FIGHTERS WAIT SATURDAY GONG t FOR KLAMATH FALLS ALSO, AS OWENS AIDE Mack Llllard, tha local boxing and wrestling promoter, will take over the ame duties In Klamath Palla, under an arrangement made yester day. Herb Owen, tha Klamath Falls pro motar, ba appointed Ullard hla ai aistant. and they will endeavor to make tha Palls city one of tha best light centers In the northwest.

Into any ball game with his returns of enemy punts. His weight la 105 and he will be In to counteract ,ha work of Jack Kllllts, the Pacific speed merchant. Bud Jones, 188, will get the call at fullback. Jones Is also a trlple threnter, a fine pass receiver and a good lnterferer. Other backs who have shown ud well this week and who may get a chance tomorrow are George York. Don McFadden, Al Bradford. Ed Joanle, Jim Crockett and Larry Lll-lebo. Paelfle Lineup Unknown Eldon Jenne had made no an nouncement of a certain atartlng eleven at a lata hour today. Ha la slated to pick Al Heldobler for the center position. He will need all of his 170 pounds to hold Mahop.y In check. He shares this position with Loran Douglas, also a letterman of the same weight. Tha atartlng guards will be Eldon and Cone, 185, and Sam Nixon, 170. Both are lettermen and tough men, according to reports.

Berney waa formerly named on the all-Northwest team, A pair of 160-pound ends, David Bruce and Clement Par berry, will start tha contest.

Boast Triple Threat The halfbacks are little Jack Kll llts, 155, former sprint star In Port land, who la the speed merchant of the Jenne crew, and Dennis Holland, 165, a good blocker. The Badgera boast another triple threat back In Ray Crltchfleld, 180 pound two-year veteran, who Is one of the shining lights at quarter.
