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. Plenty of
genuine matwork la expected from
this combination.

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

NEW RIG SCORING
