WOMEN GOLFERS BOW
TO STORMY WEATHER
Lady members of the Rogue Val

their weekly golf tournament yes
terday at the course because of the
weather.
It waa to have been a "kickers'
vent. In which contestant are al
lowed to replay one aliot on each
hole.
Bill Morgan, former Medford high
school and Oregon university foot
ball star, Is the topic of tha follow
ing Interesting Item In the sport
column of L. H. Oregory of the Ore-gonlan:
I've been wondering about big Bill
Morgan and how he la coming along
in pro football after hla serious In
Jury of last year, and presto, here
cornea a letter from Bill, telling all
about It. 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. Cup-
polettl and Mike Mlkulak both play
ed a bang-up game, though Boston
won, 9 to 0.
"The bAll-carrylng sensation on
our club this fall Is no one other
than Little Olant Willis Smith from
Idnho. 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? We may take
an exhibition tour across the coun
try from coast to coast after our
season ends, and Portland Is tenta
tively on the list."

that there were as many bands of

The streets were noticeably free
this morning from the usual block

lawn on Main streeet.
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

to additional vigilance of the police
and to forewarning. State officers

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.
