dropped in two field goals in the last
few minutes of the game, but three
foul conversions by Tnix For-man
kept the supers in the lead. That
young man, product of Salem high,
ringed 13 points with the aid of some
clever "feeding" under the baaket by
Kitchen.
The high school was weakened by
the absence of Red Soheel, but the
Web foots still had enough fight left
after three games In successive nights
to keep the lead.
Jacksonville high dropped a 22-10

SPOTLIGHT
ON SPORTS
By Arthur SchoenL
What was the biggest thrlU In the
past football season for Medford high
school? Someone asked us that ques
tion the other day, and it took a few
minutes concentrated thinking to re
call the momenta in Medford high's
eight home games that quickened the
old pumper.
There was the fake spinner play
Grants Pass pulled on Medford's gotl
line. Pour linemen and backs, run
ning wide, decoyed the whole Med
ford defense to one side and Prsdey,
the Caveman quarter, stepped over
the goal through a yawning hole. No
one touched him and his touchdown
made the score 7-6. Another big
thrill came a moment later when the
big Medford line crushed Frederick's
try for goal, winning the game for
Medford.
Someone declared they got their
biggest thrill out of the 70-yard punt
returned by little Olllnsky In the
Eugene game which Medford won,
19-0. lis took the kick on his own
30-yard line, near the east sidelines,
pranced down the chalk mark for 10
yards, cut across the field, eluded or
tore away from four Eugene tacklers,
sidestepped the safety, v-ho was block
ed out by Llndley. and went over for
the touchdown Thrills usually are
connected with hard-fought games,
and none of Medford's this fall were
close, aside from the Grants Pass
game.
e
For concentrated thrills, give us
the Southern Oregon Normal game
against Monmouth Normal, with Its
trick plays, towering punts, long
passes, and stubborn defense. The
biggest one of the day was Frank
Sapp's sensational catch of a 50-yard
forward pass from Claude Hlnes over
the goal line. Hlnes was standing
on his own 47-yard line and rifled
the pigskin downhill to his end, who
leaped high In the air and caught it
in his fingertips, over his shoulder,
on a dead run. Normal's gallant re
covery after a stunning three-touch--down
rout In the first period is
worthy of praise In any man's news
paper. Tabloids.
Chief Bender, famous Indian pitch
er for the Philadelphia Athletics years
ago, credits Glenn Sco bey (pop) War
ner with teaching him how to throw
a fadeaway. . . . Harry Newman,
Michigan's all-Amerlcan quarterback,
was a flop last year because he got
swell-headed over his showing. In his
sophomore year. ... He sat on the
bench most of the time. . . . Medford
football fans who remember Eugene
high's fleet halfback, Hugh Mercer,
will be Interested to note he made
21 points playing forward against
Oakrldge the other nl&ht. , , . Next
to having a name like Frankenstein,
who Is a tackle on a southern Cali
fornia Junior college team, we'd hate
to have one like Heller of Pittsburgh.
. . . Probably opposing teams will
say It was appropriate. . . . That all
Amerlcan halfback announced his en
gagement the other day. . . Wonder
what his girl things of becoming a
Heller?

a man better fitted for the next one.
I'll have more experience on which
to base decisions next year than I
had this year."
The boys on the bench, Connie
said, will decide when .be Is to re
tire. "When you handle a team of 35
young men," he declared, "you can't
fool them. When rny players begin
to whisper among themselves that
Mack Is not what he used to be, I'm
going to hear those whispers. Then
I'll know that it's time for me to
consider getting Into the back

Being an athlete and being & member

most difficult, This realization came
with my reading, for the first time,
