PAGE TEN i MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1934. Medford and Hood River Settle Gridiron Title Claim Tomorrow PORTLAND GAME ON THANKSGIVING VICTORS REWARD Locals Will Carry Edge in Weight Applemen Stress Speed Opening Gun Is Scheduled for 2:00 P. M (By Harold Grore) Two teams Hood River high school and Medford high school which through Mason's scores have laid claim to the mythical state prep school football championship, will meet on Van Scoyoc field here Saturday at 2 o'clock and settle the argument as to which has the most valid claim. Washington high of Portland will be host to the winner of tomorrow's game, despite the fact she has been tied twice and defeated once, accord ing to an announcement made by members of the Portland high school principals, which body met last night In Portland to discuss the matter, Medford high has the slight edge over Hood River in the betting be cause of the fact they are playing on their home field and that they have a slight edge In weight, If the weight charts given the press are cor rect. Tigers Heavier Whichever team wins In tomorrow's contest will have a perfectly Justified right In calling themselves mythical state champs. The Medford high school team will average approximate ly 104 with the line averaging 170 and the backs with an average of 1S3 pounds. The Hood River lineup mill average approximately 16S with the line averaging 164 and the backs 146. The Hood River backfleld con sists of four light and speedy men. Lakin, quarterback, weighing 145; Beck, left half. 150; Mohr, right half. 146. and Volstorff, fullback, 145. As compared with the Mfdford backfleld, Bates, fullback, 171; Smith, right hair, 106; Brown, left half, 160, and Ohe lardl quarterback, 135. , While the Apple Pickers advocate speed merchants, the Medford Pear Pickers throw their speed merchants Into the line In the line plunges. When It comes to speed and accep ts veness, little "Leaping" Leo One- lardl should be able to more than hold his own In a footrace to the goal line. Hood River Has Power House Big Tom Sheldrake, the Hood River one-man power house, will probably give the Medford boys plenty of trou bio before the day Is over unless Btcunrt, Bnker, Bates or Kindred does not get his lines tangled up before he gets started. According to reports of his activities In preceding games, he has been Just 186 pounds of poison to players that had the misfortune to get In his way. Kindred, Baker and Bates will be poison In some body's soup If the Hood River team starts going places. Coach D. K. Burgher has been keep ing his grid tactics for use In the game tomorrow somewhat In the dark. Bad colds that hit the squad In the last week may necessitate some changes In the lineup but It Is ascer tained that the players now suffering will recover sufficiently by game time. The Hsod River boys still maintain that "the bigger they are the harder they fall.' Both teams are confident rtf a win.

It must have been the unknown face that lies behind the demon's scarlet helmet that had Sam worried, for he was unable to make his rubber legs do their fanciest stepping. When Sad Sam attempted a rolling scissors, and rode the hooded grap pler to the ropes where the pair tum bled onto the floor, he came back into the ring with a kink in his ped al extremities that cost him the first fall. Red Devil took It with a body slam after tho two had struggled for 29 minutes. Eighteen minutes later. Lethers got a figure four leg clamp around the demon's hidden features to win the second fall. His 208 pounds seemed useless against the big "who-ls-he." but Sam stood for no punishment. He did most of the grappling and had Red Devil tied up In clever holds during half the bout, but the masked man demonstrated a capacity for taking punishment as welt as for dishing out the type of wrestling hard to find among the rules. Four times the Texan clambored aboard Red Devil's big frame In attempts to apply his famous rolling scissors, but each time Red Devil stood on his feet and car ried the supple southerner to the ropes. t- t The house was well filled with fol lowers of the grunt and grimace, who urged Lethers to pull off the tight- fitting head gear. The Texan went to work on the -mask with a will at every opportunity, but as far as last night la concerned. Red Devil will continue to Invade the coast's wrest ling arenas anonymous even to the promoters. ( In the first bout of the double performance Hans Schultz, German mat wizard, pulled a surprising re versal of a body slam and In seven minutes won the third and deciding fall from "Awful Al" Karaslck, of Russia. The 211-pound German prov ed both too crafty and too powerful for the Russian, and was not even dazed when Karaslck crashed him to the mat for a would-be fall. Schultz rolled over and pressed the Russian Lion to the canvas before Al himself had time to realize he was on the underside. The German started with a business-like examination of the Rus sian's technique, and after repaying Karaslck for a little f 1st work, be won the first fall In 20 minutes with a toe hold. But the dwarf-like Russian, who weighs only 191 pounds, brought all his tricks Into use for the second tumble, and using a Boston crab, coaxed the German to pat the mat In 10 minutes. Fireman Ray Frisble, who refereed both bouts, called frequent halts to slugging matches between the two grapplers, and almost caused the Russian to leave the ring In disgust on one ruling for fair play. Promoter Mack LI Hard, who an nounced that next Thursday night, Thanksgiving, he will offer an all star mat program, will have a num ber of big-time wrestlers, each rep resenting a different country, to choose from. Those who Issued chal lenges last night to the winner of the main event were Ole Anderson, of Sweden: Mike Sterlleh, of Austria; Pete Bclcastro, the Italian from Sac ramento: Schultz. of Germany, and Karaslck, of Russia.
