PAGE TEN MEDFORD M UL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1934 Medford-Klamath Tilt Saturday Holds Title Key FREE OF DEFEAT Heavy And Experienced Pel icans Boast Dangerous Pair Of Players Intense ; Rivalry Rules Teams. (By Harold Grove) Two football combinations,' Med ford and Klamath Falls, who In the past have been barometers of district football for tuna, will oontest on Van Scoyoe field tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock. The Klamath Falls Pelicans pos aess this year one of the heaviest and most experienced teams In the history of the school. The Klamath fullback, a big beefy boy by tho name of Haren, and Rogers, a do ceptlve halfback, will prove bad med icine to any Tigers who try to stop them. These two boys have been the mjan ground gainers for the Pel icans. It was Rogers who crossed the Ashland goal line three times to pro vide a win for the Klamath Falls squM over Ashland a week ago. Leslie Mar Play The Pelicans, under the Inspira tional leadership of Les Avrit, have come thus far In the Southern Ore gon football season without a defeat. The games played have been without the services of Bob Leslie, star half back and co-holder of the state 100- yard dash title, who may be la the lineup Saturday. A win over Med ford by the Peli cans would result In a Klamath Falls celebration comparable to a Mongo lian New Tear's celebration. Tho Klamathltes so far claim the leadership In the Southern Oregon leage by their undeflled record. The powerful Med ford high school Tigers, coached by Iarwln K. Bur gher, who !ast year directed his charges to a mythical state title, has successfully avoided any thorn In the path of his Tigers for another state title. The deception and power displayed' by the Tigers are some thing to be proud of, end, as Charlie Erb, Burgher's former conch, said re cently: "Parents should be proud to have their sons under the tutelage of such a man." Tigers Have Support Again this year, the Medford high school team Is backed by student body and citizenry who are anxious to nee the Tigers bring In the meat. "Leaping Leo" Qhelardl, who thus far has lived up to the expectations placed upon him by pre-gsme dope. will more than likely give the Klam athltes a merry chase. . Along the broken field prancing of Qhelardl Is BUI Bates, stellar line plunger, who has added the needed yardage more than once when the going was tough. These two backs, working with the powerful line, should go places. Jf the interference clicks In the game tomorrow the Tigers will take care of their end of the score easily. . It has not been reported s to the strength of the Klamath reserves, but In the last two games Coach Bur gher proved that he has plenty of power available. Many of the , first stringers have been on the Injured list, forcing him to count on his re serve strength. Klamath Fam Rabid When a football game comparable to a tilt between Medford and Klam ath Falls la played In Klamath Falls, business men of Klamath put up signs on their doors which reed : "Closed; gone to the game." It was reported that some of the business men of Klamath are going to close Saturday and are planning on com ing to the game here. Some 600 Klamath Falls fans are said to be planning to come to Medford for the game. However, there Is one thing cer tainwhoever win that gsme to morrow afternoon will certainly have to play four quarters of real foot ball.

Hawaiian seaman from Portland, Ore., was fatally stab tied in the Ferry buildinf and police arreated Leo Baker, 27, chief refrig eration engineer on the Dollsr liner President Hoover. Baker, charged with murder, plead ed "self-defense." saying he had beeu lured upstairs in the Ferry building by a stranger and was set upon by a half down men. "I did strike-breaking work In Ma nils not long ago," Baker said. 'They beat me once; they've been after me since.

The wound was reopened when Mulr fell backward In a rolling scissors, and used a press to win the first full. The Texan's rubber legs function ed well during the first period des pite the wound, In the best exhibi tion of scientific wrestling offered at the armory arena for many months. Frequent applause showed the audience's appreciation of the spectacular performance put on by the two mat artists. Although Lathers favored his hurt leg from the first gong, he kept the upper hand during most of the con test, proving the cleverest of the two grapplers. Using a variety of holds, he Kept Mulr on the defensive, success fully avoiding the Australian's oc- csslonsl sonnenbergs, but at times railing victim to the Islander's crunching head locks and powerful flying mares. Mulr, 308, proved sn excellent op ponent for Lethera. ail. The bout saw only one flurry of flat-sllnglng. wnicn was settled with a handshake. Lethers finally trusted his lame leg to one of his ordinarily devastating rolling scissors, but was severely crippled when the huge Australian hurtled backward in the maneuver that decided the match. The bullet wound w s received three weeks ego near Portland, while the Texan was riding In an automo bile. An automatic revolver laying on the car seat, was discharged acci dentally, the bullet striking Lethers' thigh bone and splitting Into three pieces, one of which had not been removed when the wrestler en tered last night's match. Coming from behind the ropes at a count of IB, with a sonnenberg, Cliff Thlede, all, met a punch in mid air and lost the third and de ciding fall of the evening's first bout In four minutes to Abe Kaplan, bel ligerent "Jewish gent," 224, of New York City. Kaplan used a body press on the dazed lifeguard .after first flattening him with the unexpected blow to the Jaw. The chunky Jew, a muscle mang ier of nation-wide renown, belted his way through the contest with little concern whether his slugging connected with Thlede or Referee Ray Friable. The easterner started rough and kept up a steady fire of rabbit punches for 18 minutes In the first fall, finally winning It with flying mares and a press. Kaplan pounded the life guard relentlessly, only occasionally resorting to genu ine wrestling tactics. Thlede was kept busy protecting his head from the rain of fists; but managed to return some blows of his own that sent the "Jewish gent' on hurried trips sround the ring. The life guard reversed a persistent bear hug and turned loose a series of deadly sonnenbergs in the second canto, to take his fall In five and one half minutes. Thlede received a splattering of handclapplng from the large house as he left the ring.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2. p Joe Cronln, young manager of th Wash ington American league baseball team, was sold today to the Boston Red Sox and reports here said he was given a five-year contract as player-manager. In one of the biggest maor league deals of recent yeara, Boston bought tho 28-year-old shortstop for a prise reported to be the highest ever paid for a player, considerably more than the (126.000 the Yankees paid for Babe Ruth In 1919: The Red Sox also sent Shortstop Lynford Lary to the Senators. - t Cronln will succeed Stanley (Bucky) Harris as the Red Sox manager, It was understood here. Harris, who Uvea here, was on a hunting trip to day end Mrs. Harris said the deal was "news" to her.

Stanford Carries Vote Of Grid Prophet Though Chance Seen for Upset By HERBERT W. BARKER (Associated Press Sports Writer.) NEW YORK, Oct. 28. The burned child may fear the fire, but football guessers are a hardier, or a less wise, breed. Notwithstanding the scars already Incurred in the line of duty this season, they were at it again today, hoping old man upset would: keep his meddling fingers out of the 'pie for once. From, this corner, week end prospects seemed about aa fol lows: Ysle-Army: Army, unbeaten, un tied, unscored upon and untested. Ysle, beaten once, but coming along fast, as witness the 37-0. rout of Brown last week. A not-too-certain ballot for Army. Minnesota-Iowa: There's no choice but Minnesota here. Stanford-Southern California:' Here's the logical spot for one of the season's outstanding upsets, but it's a sheer impossibility to pick anyone but Stanford. Washington State - Oregon State: A close one, Washington State. Utah-Oregon: Utah never has much luck against Pacific Coast conference , teams. A ballot for Oregon. j Washington-California: Both are , regarded now as possible Pacific1 Coast conference champions and it probably will take a "break" or two to decide this issue. A vote for i Washington. Harvard-Dartmouth : String lng along with another unbeaten but un tested outfit, Dartmouth, narrowly. Northwestern - Ohio State: This Ohio State team is good. Notre Es-me -Wisconsin: Notre Dame beat Purdue by two touch downs; Purdue beat Wisconsin by two touchdowns. Two and two makes four. That won't be the margin in this game, but a vote for Notre Dame, Just the same. Alabama-George: Alabama gets the call. Penn-Navy: Penn has shown en-,1 com aging progress the last two weeks but hardly enough to overturn Navy's unbeaten array. Michigan-Illinois: Michigan final. ly broke its touchdown famine against Georgia Tech last week but seems fated for another beating by the Illinl. Tennessee - Duke: Duke slightly favored. Princeton-Cornell: Princeton. Tulane-Georgla Tech: Tech turns from its midwest Invasion Just in time, probably, to take sv beating. Vanderbllt-Loulslana State: The coin says Louisiana State to win. Columbla-Penn State: Two branches of the "cat" family, with Columbia's Lions favored. Georgetown -New York University: Georgetown. Kansas-Oklahoma: Oklahoma. Tulsa-Kans&s State: Kansas State In a hard fought cne. Arkansas-Missouri Mines: The Ra zorbacks of Arkansas In a breather. Carnegie Tech - Purdue : The Boil ermakers look too strong for Carnegie. Fordham -Southern Methodist: A perhaps too-trusting vote of confi dence in Fordham. Brown-Syracuse: Syracuse to re main unbeaten. Chicago-Missouri : No reason ap parent why Chicago should stumble on this one. Nebraska-Iowa State: Nebraska. Oregon Weather.
