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.

BAN FRANCISCO, Oct.
While scores of commuters looked in,
James Williams. 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

since. X think they were out to est
me this time, so X protected myself.1

PROVES EASY FOR
Entering the main event at the
armory last, night with a bullet
wound in hi thigh, received recent
ly from an accidental pistol dis
charge, Sad Sam Lathers, slim Tex
an grappler, staved off the Inevitable
for 92 minutes of brilliant, clean
wrestling, then lost the match In a
deciding fall of 30 seconds to big
Bonny Mulr, Australia.; champion,
when the Islander applied a stretch
to Sad Sam's already useless leg. 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.

Boston Team Pays High
Price For 28-Year Old
Senator ShortstopRuth
Rumored As Successor.
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.
The sudden sale of Cronln brought
speculation here as to whow Presi
dent Clark Griffith would select as
manager for the Senators next sea
sons. It is known Griffith highly re
gards Harris, and It also has been
rumored thst Griffith would like to
have George Herman (Babe) Ruth at
the local helm.
S. S. EMPRESS OP JAPAN, enroute
to Tokyo, Oct. 26. fp) Reports Babe
Ruth would succeed Connie Mack as
manager of the Philadelphia Athletics
next season met a blunt reception
from the "A's" manager today.
"My ambition." commented the 71-year-old
baseball veteran, "Is to con
tinue as manager of the Athletics
until I have passed my 80th birth
day." Mack Is leading a barnstorming tour
of the Orient, with Ruth as field
manager.
SONS WILL PLAY
LINFIELD TONIGHT
ASHLAND, Oct. 28. ( Special )
Southern Oregon will . witness its
first major football game In history
under the floodlights when Howard
Hobson's Southern Oregon Normal
school grldders, full of fire from
their 7-0 defeat of the University of
Oregon Prosh, meet Llnfleld college,
a member of the Northwest confer
ence, at Roseburg tonight.
Boasting the only lighted field
south of Eugene, Roseburg is stag
ing a gala celebration for their first
college game and have on the slate
as a starter, a preliminary battle be
tween Roseburg high and Marsh-
flfid.
On paper. Hotron's SONS, who
seemed to have struck their stride at
last, are the decided favorites to
walk off the field with their second
win of the current season. Although
losing to Pacific 7-0 and to the O.
8. C. Rooks, 13-0, the Ashlanders
showed a lot of promise In their
Prosh tilt lsst week and the past few
days have taken huge steps forward
in the matter of improvement.
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.
Fair east and unsettled with rain
