MEDFORD MAIL TRIEUXE. MEDFORD. OREGON1, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 193?. Karasick and Wagner Will Wrestle Tonight on Revamped Card AT LAST Because of Injuries received at Klamath Falls last Saturday night when he wrestled with Man Moun tain Dean, behemoth grappler, Bonny Mulr, Australian champion, will not appear at the armory In tonight's wrestling card which has been re Tamped Into & new lineup of mus-cle-manglers. Although Mulr has received treat xnent all week for a dislocated verte bra, which he suffered when Dean hook hands with Old Man Oravlty and let fall his 30ff-odd pounds on Mulrs neck, the doctor ruled out his main event schedule here to night with Jack Fosgren, Canadian tltleholder. Accordingly, Promoter Mack LI Hard has arranged a new card of eminent grip and grimace men, In which Don Wagner, ex-Oregon State grldster, has been moved Into a main event berth with Al Karasick, renowned Russian Lion. Fosgren will be seen In action in the first tumble of the double show With Billy Newman, the Denver meanle, who had previously been scheduled to meet Wagner. Despite the change, Li Hard has succeeded tn arranging what will probably turn out to be ona of the highlights of his wrestling menu for 1934, In the main event bout. Wag ner has proved one of the most popular wrestlers yet to draw ap plause from local fandom, and Is considered an exceptionally hard grappler to throw. Bringing with him from the gridiron a pair of de vastating lower limbs, he never falls to put on an exhibition of clever wrestling. He uses the flying tackle as his main offensive tactic. Karasick ranks with the champions and Is experienced in all tricks of the trade. He has ft complete stock of clever holds, never hesitates to employ rough matwork, and has a habit of turning out on the top side of a bout. With the colorful Russian matched against Wagner, the main event should see one hour or two out of three falls of the grunt and groan profession at Its best. Fosgren's Initial appearance here has been much anticipated. The Ca nadian Is a student of the old school In the art of grappling, uses a scien tific technique, and depends upon the Boston crab hold as his chief method of taking the "fight" out of an opponent. Although the Canadian counts on scientific holds, he may have to re sort to unorthodox matwork against the Coloradoan, whose rule-book was probably never taken from lta shelf. The bout should settle, at least for one hour or two out of three falls, the question of right versus wrong. 5-2, FROM JAP ALL-STARS HAKODATE, Japan, Nov. 8.

When the Medford high school Tigers take to the field Armistice day (Monday) to halt the march of the Chemawa Indiana on their war path, they will find that the Indiana posisess a running attack that Is cap able of forcing most white men's strongholds. As far as can be learned concern ing the Indians' record, they havo proceeded thus far In the season's scalping tours without a loss to their own tribe. When It come to weight, the In dians will have an even break, for they possess some heavy boys, accord Ing to a weight chart sent Coach D. K. Burgher of Medford. fiteuart Recovering.

Tall yarns have been passed con cerning the origin of different spor classics, so here is one concerning football. In the mining country of Pennsylvania, about the year 1840, there wae a nomad tribe of Indians that found food mighty scarce. Thee were only 11 members In the tribe These Indians made It a practice to raid chicken pens to secure their food One afternoon If the story Is correct It was about 2 o'clock these Indians started out In search of food. They came to an old abandoned Iron-scrap yard next door to an old German family home. The yard was littered with old pieces of grates and other bits of Iron used In heating plants. Wjen the Indians started In on the raid of his storehouse, they came across a stuffed pig, which they thought to be real. The old Indian chief drew & knife and started to scalp the pig, and at this moment the German spied him. The hom steitder yelled at his whole family to come and help him rescue the pig. They chased the Indians onto this abandoned Iron-scrap yard and right then and there a battle royal took place over the stuffed pig. One of the Indians, Jn trying 'to run with the pig, stumbled and fell and one of the Oerman boys kicked at th-i pig and kicked all the atufflng out, so there was nothing left but the pig skin. That Is how the word pigskin and gird Iron came Into effect, for Iron grates defined means gridiron. The way football came In waa that one of the German boys hit his foot on the gridiron and when he went home he exclaimed, "My foot bawls I" GRIDIRON GLEANINGS (By the Associated Press) EUGENE, Ore. University of Ore gon's big hope In Its classic against the Oregon State football team at Portlsnd Saturday weighs lfl6 pounds. It's Maurice ("Plea") Van Vllet, regular ball carrying, signal shout ing and passing halfback, who also will be called upon to do the punt ing. Co-Captain Bob Parke, one of the outstanding punnters on the coast, has a broken Instep and may not be able to play. Van Vllet kicks consistently and Is good on quick kicks. And offensive ly he's been the big show for Oregon this season.

Schultz, regular end, Is another good man you Just can't keep down in bed. The worst casualty Is Coach Lon Stlner, whose voice was reduced to a whisper by tonsil trouble. Word decipherable from his alleged "whis pering" campaign emanate, confidence In Saturday's outcome. MOSCOW, Idaho.

With their final chance of redeeming a disastrous season and winding up with at least a small burst of glory, Howard Hobson's underdog Southern Oregon Normal achool football team will go on the field at Ashland Sat urday against Chlco State college in the annual homecoming battle with the entire squad In the best physi cal condition since the opening week of practice. All players, with the exception of Jack Eagles, who won't sea action because of a neck Injury and Billy Courtney, quarterback who hurt his shoulder in the Monmouth affair, are more than ready to go. For the first time since the middle of the season, Jay Adams, the halfback with the burning speed, will be available for heavy duty. From pre - game appearances. It looks like It will be a battle of two heavy, powerful lines with lots of high scoring potentialities on one side and a rather weak punch on the other. The SONS line has been no cause of worry to Hobson all year, his tremendous 200-pound forward wall more than holding its own with any it has encountered. It's in the back field where all the grief has made Itself known, lack of a reliable scor ing punch being the principal weak ness. Not so with Chico State, how ever, if records and reports from the south mean anything. Behind prob-1 ably an equally powerful line, roams the best quartet of ball carriers in the far western conference, which includes such teams as. San Jose State, College of Pacific, where Alonzo Stagg s head man and Uni versity of Nevada, upsetter of Sc. , Mary's. Leading the array of brll-; llant ball packing talent, will be j Dick Jenks, who triple threats the life out of opposing teams and who Is reputed to be the best passer eeen tn the conference for years. However, Hobson has some fire work ha can ignite himself, which if they blaze away, will put the SONS on an equal footing with their opponents. He will have Adams In there and of which there is none so lightning fast and who Is so danger ous in an open field. He will have Cliff McLean to return punte in hi sidestepping manner and to throw plenty of paases If hi ground at tack bog down, which 1 likely. He will have Bob Beach, who rammed the line with such gusto against Monmouth and he will have Alabama Bradford, the great little blocking back, the best defensive man on the team. And, of course, Busting Bob Braddock will be In there plenty of the time, hitting the line or slam ming off the tackles and Inspiring hi teammates. It Is directly up to that fast, but weak punching backfleld whether or not the SONS will keep Chlco State from getting their revenge for last year's 14-7 defeat. The same lineup that started the Monmouth game will probably see the Initial klckoff Saturday. Ras mussen and Wilson will be at end; Howell and Jocklsh at the tackle berths; Butze and Kelly at the guards, and Mahoney at center, with Fritz and Pettijohn ready to relieve him at any time.
