?AGE FOUR MEDFORD M VTL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 193. ....ii ii. . . . . i, i ID RIVER I LAIV1 MY OUTFIT IS ;(EP0RIJSC0UI gger They Are, Harder They Fall Say Boys From Apple Center Second Team for Defensive Only fly Harold Grove Hood River farm and football team r.rt broadcasting to the world that Saturday's game here la In the well hnown "bag" for them. The two choola will meet on Van Scoyoc field to decide a contender for the Oregon f.tate mythical state cham plonshlp, the winner going to Port land for the annual Turkey day tilt which will In all probability decide the state football champ. Although the Appleplcfcers are comparative light team, they have for their slogan: "The bigger they are the harder they fall" and the pe culiar part of It Is that this slogan has held true throughout their sea son. The Medford scout who rovlewed the Hood Rlver-Ooldcndale game stated that the Hood Rtverlans were . Incomparable when It cornea to cockiness. He talked to some of the players who said they would bowl over thla big Medford squad "Just like they did the Swedes from As toria." They boasted of knocking out five in that game and forcing them to substitute seven. Tough Time Expected 'If Medford wallops this bunch of bonebustera, they will have been through a real football game," the tcout declared. The Hood River record for the sea son Is as follows: Hood River 14, Chemawa 0; Hood River 3fl. Oregon City 0: Hood River 7, Astoria 0; Hood River (Reserves) 37, Maupln 0; Hood River 9, The Dalles 0; Hood Hirer 27, Qoldendnle 0; Hood River la. University high of Eugene 0. In all of these games, the first team has not played a full game, usually playing only about thruc-quartors of a half. The first team conslcts of light and speedy boys who dish It out and then as soon as they roll up a touch down or two the coach sends In his defense team which Is supposed to be the second string. That Is the sys tem used nil season, the second team playing more than the first team, It Is reported. , Used Psychology When asked why they had not rolled up higher scores, the Hood River boys Btated "that's 'the psy chology -of It, dnn't you s?t It? If we beat thoso teams by a lnrge score other teams would think we were good and therefore we wouldn't have the chance we have now. But wt try to-make them think that we're not so good and then when we play against them we beat the pants off m." It was reported that a large group of Hood River fans are to arrive In Medford along with the Hood River team to watch their boys In action. Mysterious Meanie May Get Lesson in Mat Work Followers of the grunt and grimace are looking forward to the main event Thursday night at the armory with the hope that Bad Sam Lethera, popular Texan, will not only give Red Devil, the mysterious meanie, (shown above), a lesson In scientific wrestling, but also that Umber earn will be able to tear off he demon's mask. For It Is the desire of each wrest ler who meets Red Devil to remove the tight fitting hood and disclose to the wrestling world the Identity; of Its most famous anonym. It Is thought that the head gear, which Is matched by trunks and cape of the same color, will prove an advantage to Lethers, who specializes In a bone crunching head scissors that will be given added grip by the hood. Two old timers of the profession "Awful Al" Karastck of Russia and Hans Schultz, of Germany will meet in the semi flnal bout, also sched uled to hold forth for one hour or two out of three tumbles.

ERA FOR BLUES By ALAN OOl'MK Associated Press M ports Editor. NEW YORK, Nov. 21. (AP) If, as now appears likely, Yale scales the championship heights of the old big three by beating Harvard this Sat urday at New Haven, It can be said with finality the current "Iron men" of old 11 have started a brand new era In football for the' blue. The eleven conquerors of Prince ton typify an elemental surge Yale hasn't known In years. Yale has had some great teams and great players In fairly recent years, but not since little Albfe Booth flashed across the gridirons In 1929 has anything re vived the Blue's sagging football spirits as much as Captain Clare Curtln's "sixty minute men." Old Blues who Journeyed down to Princeton last Saturday, mainly out of habit, with many misgivings, came away, hoarse and popeyed with ex citement. Yet It was only a couple of years ago that old grads were shocked by a Yale captain's state ment to the general effect that "winning wasn't everything" and It was barely six months ago that these same old grads were yelling for complete house cleaning at New Haven. They wanted the graduate coach ing system scrapped and a young man with modern Ideas, like Harry O. Kipke of Michigan. Installed in the head man's chair. Instead they got Raymond W. (Ducky) Pond of the class of 1025 as head coach, with a corps of "outsiders" as assistants, headed by Earle (Greasy) Neale and they're beginning to like It Immensely. BOWLING Weeks and Orr bowlers scored a two-to-one win over the Electrolux team In their Elks club match last night, with Roy Prultt of the furni ture men strafing the pins for a total of 688, and high match honors.
