Btlll with the New York Olants. who treated him wonderful ly when he was suffering a spinal concussion due to a kick on the spine, and he says: "No doubt you know that we, the New York Giants, are leading the eastern division and that the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bcnra are tied In the western division. We play the Bears at Chicago this week. They haven't lost one yet, so we will try to knock them over. I've finally de cided what constitutes the main dif ference between pro football and the Intercollegiate gnme. Pro football haa "controlled power" like the gaaollne ad, and the colleges lack It. "George Christen son. the former Oregon tackle. Is captain of the De troit Lions. Brrnle Hughes of the Cardinals was badly injured in the game with the Green Bay packers a week ago nnd didn't play against the Boston Redskins last Sunday.

He'a been running through all the clubs we have played. The crowds go wild when he enters the ball game. He's a great kick. Man, this league gets tougher every year! There are a fine lot of new players In the league. Among them is Bob Bellinger, Gonzaga tackle, who Is playing a fine game at guard for us. I "How would Portland like to aee a professional team play there? Do you think it would draw?

Three Junior high school student, charged with destruction of street signs and placed for a short time In the city Jail, were the only persons apprehended. The Bhaeuce of great damage other than that to the signs is believed die to additional vigilance of the police and to forewarning.

The annual SONS-Monmouth clash will be brought to southern Oregon this year for the second time In re cent years. The game Is set for Ash land at 3 p. m. Friday. Two yeart ago these two teams battled on the same field with the northerners win ning, 20-8. L. H. Oregory. sports edi tor of the Oregon lan, drove 350 miles to cover the game and described It aa the most spectacular he ever wit-needed. Last year the two teams put on their show In Portland before 6000 fans with the SONS winning, 12-7. Both teams were again Invited to play this year at Multnomah stadium In Portland but the demand throughout southern Oregon haa been strong to bring the game to this section each alternate year, so plans have been completed accordingly. Monmouth Team Fast Monmouth claims the fastest and most spectacular team in recent years which Is saying a great deal. Boot leg plays, hidden ball plays, fakes and spinners of all kinds are the main threat of the lnvadera. To make these clever playa really work, they have a lull team of seasoned stars nearlv everyone being an experienced college player. The Monmouth backfleld would do credit to any ceast conference team, At left half la Ed Ma kel a ex-Oregon State let term an and star, who did his prep footballing at Astoria. Makela la an exceptional passer and kicker and carries 195 pounds of line nluns lng with It. Teamed with Makela at right half Is Elmer Borden, another star passer and kicker from University or Oregon and formerly Olympla. At halfback la Howard ("Nigger") Tlhlla. ex-Oregon State and Astoria sensation, who transferred to Mon mouth a year ago. The tfuarterback post is well handled by Bruce Mahan a four-year veteran transfer from Wlllamett. Wilson Graham, ex-Pa clflo ace, la another expert paaser and kicker that may start in the back field. Ystad Sensational Herb Ystad, transfer from Oregon State and Astoria star, la another sensational player with the Wolves, He Is a 196-pound end. Ken Bow ers, 200-pound transfer from Pacific and ex-North Bend star, Is playing center. Murphy ex-St. Mary'a letter- man, Is holding down a tackle berth with Gustafson, veteran at the other tackle. Ben Olcott, 21S-pound end; Ted Cettlngham, guard, Portland wrestling star, and Tom Bruce, ex Commerce, complete the lineup. The SONS tills year are green and Inexperienced but will throw every thing Into thla game. The forward wall la strong from tackle to tackle. Mahoney, veteran center, haa return ed, and Frlta and Pettyjohn are also capable pivot men, although both are Injured at present. Ed Butze, Port-1 land, and John Hayden, La Grande, j look like starting guards, although Hayden Is confined with a case of flu at present. ' Louis Kelly, 210-pound Independ-! ence boy, may start at guard, and vernon ureii, A&torla freshman, may also aee action. Ward Howell, veter an, and John Svetle, 230-pound Bend freshman, or Dick jocklsch, veteran, can handle the tacklea with Jack Brewer, tall Bandon freshman, in re serve. Howell may be shifted to end In place of Bill Rasmuascn, veteran, who haa been off his game recently. Rasmuasen la also suffering from in juries received in the Oregon game. Ai Wilson will start at one end In spite of a bad leg injury. The Spo kane sensation weighs only 163 but uses all of it. "Red" Klees, Portland freshman, may see action at end. HONS' Harks Crippled Of the seven SONS' backs used In most of the games to date, three are so badly Injured that they may not see action Friday. Jack Eagle. Grant high star, la definitely out with a leg Injury. Jay Adams, freshman sen sation, and Al Bradford, veteran, both have severe shoulder Injuries, but may see action. Bob Braddock. drlv lng 180-pound fullback, and Chief McLean, Indian star, will be ready to go, as will Bill Courtney, quarter, and Bob Beech, veteran fullback, cliff Meachem, another Indian atar, has looked good In practice and may woik into the starting lineup. Coat-h Hobaon haa worked his play era overtime on several new forma tions lor the game and also on a de fense for Monmouth playa. The line appears to be on a psr with that of the northern team, although less ex perienced. The SONS' backs on pa per are no match for the seasoned Wolves but will attempt to make up for lack of weight and experience by superior drives. Loutlltt to Referee A coast conference atmosphere will be given to the game when Tom Lout lltt, veteran coast referee, appears to handle the game. Loutlltt handles more big games on the coast than any other official and will come down for the game Friday, as he is slated to work for Oregon In Eugene on Saturday. He will be ably assisted by two other experts from Portland. Jennings Says Old Tires are Dangerous 'The developing of automobile tires to give maximum mileage and at the same time greater non-skid traction haa long been sought by rubber chemist and engineers." according to Sam Jennings of the Jennings Tiro uumpany, loca i neny Springfield dealers. "With the annallinv miir.- ber of automohlla f At nit tin m than ever due to blowouts and skids, tire engineers have st rived to de velop such a tire. It Is a well known fact that.
