r PAGE TEN SIEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1934. BELCASTRO PUTS RED DEVIL MY; 10 MEET. SAVOLD One thousand fans, the largest at tendance here since the appearance of strangler Lewis, saw last night what turned out to he even more than they had expected, when Pete Belcaatro. belligerent Italian grap pler, climaxed a 20-mlnute slugfest with Rod Devil, the mysterious mean- le. with a kick that sent tne a-jo pound "demon" sailing off the edge of the platform Into the third row of spectators, where he landed among the chairs In a crash that disiocatea a vertebrae and prevented blm from comlntr back. Red Devil, his famous scarlet hood a bit worse for wear but still dls gulslng him, was carried out of the auditorium Just five minutes from the beginning of the second xau, al ter he had won the first tumble In 15 minutes with a pair of body lams. By right of the victory. Bel caatro will meet "Jumping Joe" Ba- voldl, originator of the drop-kick, In a bout which Promoter Mack Llllard has definitely scheduled for 0 o'clock fiaturdav night, Dec. 15. The cocky Italian's devastating kick came when Red Devil was at tempting to climb back Into the ring, a vicious attack on the mask having sent him scuttling under the ropes. He waa still perched rather precariously on the platform when Belcaatro doubled up and let iiy. for his only effective leg punch of the bout. Pate had It that Red Dem on left the platform la the exact , spot where last week he gave Hans Schults the kick that laid away the German In nearly the same manner. Pete nearly made good bis promise to "get the mask." but he was not aa cock-sure of himself once In the ring, as he had been before the match. Weighing only lea pounds, 43 less than the big "who-la-he." Belcaatro was unable to compete with hla opponent in legitimate wrestling but that didn't matter, for only two honest holds were used during the entire fracas. And the fiery Italian, the victim both times. promptly put a stop to these by bit ing. Red Devil waa no man's fool. Not once did he allow Belcaatro even to think seriously of using his drop- kick, for the mystery man displayed far too much caution to be caught off guard. He waa unable to apply any of his most devilish holds, but when he did occasionally manage to get the elusive Italian In his grasp, the resulting wallops took most of the life out of Belcaatro. Only at one time did Pete find himself on the oiitalde of the ropes, and that was when he "sat" with a stinging sen sation on the edge of the platform. The ropes, however, played an im portant part In the battle as far as Belcaatro was concerned. He Insisted on clamping toe holds or arm locke on Red Devil with one of the ropes as a lever, and at one time he put a, "hangman'a" hold on the mystery man while trying to pull off the head gear. Referee Ray Friable had a busy evening of It, but managed to break moat of the more serious choke holds and rope entanglements. He also es caped several mean haymakers aim ed In his direction by both of the cross-patch grapplera. After throwing Mike Sterllch, Jugo slavia, out of the arena with a aeries of flying marea and so battering him that he waa barely able to struggle persistently back for more, Hans Schultz, chunky German, used a Boa ton crab to win the semi-final bout. The crab hold name In the second fall, after the Slav had undergone two mlnutea of the worst sort of punishment, but Sterllch was so crippled In the third canto that a pair of flying marea laid him away In leaa than 30 seconds. The Jugoslavian, weighing 304 against 310 for the German, won the first fall In 34 with a rolling body scissors. Sterllch held the edge dur ing the first and longest period of wrestling, although he waa also crip pled slightly in this fall by key locks and the German's deadly flying mares. The rough treatment Schults handed hla lighter opponent brought boot from the large audience, who were kept scurrying from their ring side seats during the second stanza whenever Sterllch waa thrown off the platform. A clever carnival prellmlna-y was presented by three boys from Pros pect high school, 'Abner Yokum", hla opponent Danny Ohrt, and Em ery Moore, referee. R. L. Zobel, prin cipal of Prospect high, staged the show, which ended in a draw after the two "grnpplers" and the referee all tangled in a comical mlxup. Promoter Llllard and the Boxing commission admitted the 30 mem bers of M Ml ford high school footfcsll squad as g urate to the performance.

IP) Dr. Robert Gordon Sproul, president of the University of California, came to the defense of Intercolle giate football In a short talk at the annual University of Califor nia at Los Angeles grid banquet Here last night. "I contend," aald President Sproul, "that football la not a cancer on university life, but a good tonic for academic anemia. Football has Justified itself aa an Institution. "What trouble has resulted from the game has come mostly from outsiders and a few of the alumni who put much emphasis on win ning without spect for schools with high acholsetlc standards."

By Harold Grore Playing under ideal conditions and with fair officiating the Medford high school football team headed by Coach D. K. Burgher went down to Its first defeat of trie season to a strong aggregation of Mothers at the Flrat Christian church last night. Turkey, potatoes, gravy, cranberry aauce, and cake galore were set In a position where 38 of the hardiest eaters ever to assemble at a banquet table were able to get their fill. Asst. Coach S. M- Klrtley threw In the white towel late In the second helping. He was followed by Coach Burgher who after stowing away a little better than three-fourths of two helpings yelled "uncle.' After elapse of about a half hour from the time Klrtley and Burgher gave up, members of the football team patted the mat in token of defeat.

Brom ley, Mr. and Mrs. Mcnegat, Mrs. Burgher, Mrs. Klrtley and Harold Grove. The tables were so placed as to form an "M".

The1 players were seated on the sidelines and the head coach and assistant be hind the goal posts which were dec orated with red and black crepe paper. The boys 'were very much pleased with the banquet and expressed the hope of having more of them In the future. Players present were: Bob Hlnman, Bob Ottoman. BUI Bates.

(AP) The west awaited the arrival of Notre Dame's crippled gridiron war riors today before drawing ita final conclusion as to the outcome of the infirmary football championship here tomorrow at Memorial coliseum with Southern California.

Southern California athletic offi cials stated a crowd of 60,000 waa In prospect. Word from Tucson, Ariz., where the Notre Dame team Is stopping, was that George Mellnkovlch. halfback, will not play, and that such others as Jack Robinson, center; Bill Smith, guard, and Mlchuda, another lines man, would see little action. No more discouraging was the news that Ward Browning, Trojan first string end, was out. with a broken leg scarcely an Imaginary ailment George Brown, running guard, defi nitely on the bench with a bad ankle. and Slitf Propst, fullback, still han dicapped by a broken hand.
