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.

INDIANS OFFENSE
MAY GIVE TIGERS
PLENTY TROUBLE
(By Harold Orore.)
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.

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"

FORO FRICK ELECTED
TO HEYDLER'S PLACE
TILT WITH CIO
By BILLY ITLTEV.
ASHLAND, Nov. 8. (Spl.) 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.
