nary Starting at 7 P. M.
, in High School Gym
Th Medford high school basket
ball Mam waives Its baptism under
lire tonight at the high school gym
nsslum. beginning at 8 o'clock, with
the SONS frosh doing the baDtlslng.
The strength of the local outfit,
untested In anything besides prac
tice games, is still strongly In doubt,
with most of the mn being new to
regular competition. Kunzman, whom
- Burgher listed In the tentative start
ing lineup, haa had two years of ex
perience, but the others. Ettenger at
center, Bob Smith at guard with
Kunzman, and Sears and Campbell
at forwarda all being more or less
untested.
Burgher had no statement to make
as to the prospective merits of his
team tms morning, other thsn to
say that although green, the team Is
a fighting one. Most of the members
are tall, with Ettenger and Campbell
over als feet, and smith nearly as
tall.
Bob smith will be remembered as
the flash that blazed across the foot
hall sky In mid-season, after warm
ing the bench most of the time In
the earlier games.
Lewis Campbell, while this la bis
first starting role, is not entirely
new to the game, having played on
a Tiger cub team that walloped the
varsity In practice games two nights
In a row two jears ago.
Ettenger Is the long football cen
ter from the second string, and
should round out Into a formidable
basketeer. Seara Is also new to var
alty ball, but la declared a ball-hawk
by observers.
The starting line-up will be back
ed by auch well known athletes as
Hlnman. Lewlfi, who, contrary to
earlier reports, Is not "descendent."
but a brother of the famous St.
Mary's star naskotbell players; Lu
men. Van Dyke, (who practically won
the Ashland game alone last year
while playing for the scrub team
that took the place of the out-lawed
barn-palntlng first game), Steuart.
Severson and Bates.
The preliminary, which starts at 1
'clock, will feature the Tiger cube
and the Junior high team under Ray
Henderson.
Both gamea arc expected to be fast
and Interesting.
WRESTLE TO DRAW

The roar of the crowd decided that

Porsgren. 320. Vancouver, B. C,

for 10 minutes more to decide the

Forsgren gained the first f nil on a
Boston crab hold, but wns '.ensiled
soon by a trio of drop kicks.

Tough Time in Store for
Scrappy Sacramentan Is
Fans' Belief Rumberg
Hubka Meet Preliminary
Last minute Investigation of the
dope bucket regarding the main
event wrestling bout tonight be
tween Pete Belcastro and Rd Devil,
two equally skillful and thoroughly
unscrupulous grapple, haa seen a
decided twist In the odds toward the
side of the mysterious meanle, who
Is rated by most of the local fight
prognostics tors as having a. two to
one chance of coming out of the
fracas on top.
It Is believed that belligerent Bel
castro will have a tough time of It
when he meets the mystery man to
night for the second time. Although
Pete Is capable of handling hlmsell
under any circumstances, Red Devil
has been brewing up bad medicine
for the Italian ever since the latter
unwound a dropkick that spelled
defeat several weeks ago and an in
jured back to Red Devil, aa well a
ruin to more than one neat In the
third row of the armory arena.
Before that kick came. Red Devil
was drubbing Pete throughout the
match, In the manner It Is feared,
not hoped (because Belcastro Is rated
aa a strong favorite when compared
to tha vicious mystery man) that hu
will repeat tonight In the return en
gagement. On the other hand, Belcastro Is no
slouch when It comes to drop-kicking,
or, for that matter, any of the
ether angles of the game that were
Invented to flatten an opponent. Ht
also has been brewing bad medicine
during the Interim, and with thn
crunching haymakers and rabbit
punches that poured Into him dur
ing the first tangle ringing in his
ears. It Is thought that Belcastro will
know better than to get too close
to the demon without first figuring
out bow to get away again.
Report from the Italian Indicate
that he Is as cocky as ever, despite
the fact that ho hesitated some time
before agreeing to the mutch. He.
vows he will succeed In pulling oft
the scarlet hood which dltgulaes Red
Devil, a thing which he very nearly
did In the first wild me'.ee between
this pair of blg-tlme choke ond
chuckle artists.
Promoter Mack Llllurd has signed
for the semi-final event two other
highly-touted wrestlers promising
plenty of action Hal Hum berg, 225
pound grappler from Spokane, and
joe Huoka, ex-Unlverslty of Nebraska
athlete.
Rumberg, rated one of the best
men on the coast today, Is making
his first appearance in Medford, and
Is heralded by those In the kr.ow as
& colorful speclmon. Stocky but fast
Rumborg displays a hard, aggressive
type of wrestling that twally leaves
nlm well accounted lor.
The Nebraska lad stepped Into
local wrestling circles last week In
a semi-final engagement ngulnst the
highly-touted Tony C'atnlano of Italy
winning two oiu of three falls' by
fouls, ond coining out of the bout
well prnlsed for hie nmtwork.
The card Is being offered at th
populnr low ndinlsMin nites. Raj
Frlsble will referee.

Bill Terry borrowed a page from
John McGraw's book on managing the
Olant when he reached down to
Philadelphia and picked up Dick Bar
ren to fill tha gap at shortstop for
the New York team. McGraw bought
Dave (Beauty) Bancroft, one of his
greatest shortstops, from the Phils.
When Bartell dons a Giant uniform
he will be following a long, Illus
trious line of short-fielders. On the
strength of his record with the Phils,
he ought to "belong." Brilliant on
the defense, he Is a real .300 hitter.
Olant shortstop h' story Is studded
with Inspiring names: John Mont
gomery Ward, Jack Glasscock, Shorty
Fuller, George Davis, Sammy Strang,
BUI Dahlen, TllUe Shafer, Art Fletch
er, Dave Bancroft and Travis Jackson.
Ward la one of the best remember
ed for he played on the first cham
pionship Giant teams In 1888 and
'89. McGraw always thought kindly
of BUI Dahlen for he played short
on McGraw's first championship club
In 1004.
Kartell's Spirit.
Dahlen was a snorts top much on
the order of Dick Bartell. a scrappy
fellow with a penchant for becoming
Involved with the opposing players.
But BUI could play a lot of baseball
and McGraw was not one to hate a
bit of scrappine&s In his players.
Fletcher was rated as McOraw's best
shortstop uVUll Bancroft came along
then It was a toss-up between the
two. Jackson showed the spark of
greatness but was annoyed by leg
trouble much of his career.
Bartell la just the type of ball
player w'ao can revitalize the Giant
team, w'.ilch faded so completely In
the flna.l stage of the 1934 pennant
race.
Mild-mannered and quiet off the
ball fkMd. Bartell la a different man
once he feels his spikes dig tnto he
diamond. Then every ball stame be
comes a personal battle, worth spend
ing jvery possible effort to win.
O.'.ten his enthusiasm gets him Into
hot water. His unwillingness to jlve
way to the man on the base paths
was responsible for his fracas with
Linus Frey of the Brooklyn Dodgers,
and has earned him the reputation of
being free and loose with his spikes
Fuel for (Hunts-Dodgers Fire.
Incidentally, with feelings anything
but cordial between the Dodgers and
the Giants, the appearance of Bartell
In the New York uniform la certain
to add fuel to the (Ire. Brooklyn
fans, who enjoyed a measure of re
venge and satisfaction when. Casey
Stengel's team defeated the Giant
when It hurt the most and Just about
ruined whatever chance the Giants
had left of winning the pennant, will
spare no effort to make BarteH'a
visits to Ebbet'a Field as unpleasant
us possible.
Bartell Is a player well able to take
oare of himself, and most likely to
rise to the heights when the going
gets tough.
In the meantime the little inter-
borough baseball feud is not going to
hurt the attendance figures when the
Giants and the Dodgers meet.
Bty; lengue trades often have amus'
Ins little sidelights. Dick Bartell and
Johnny Verges, who changed uni
form in the trade between the Phils
and the Giants, have been fast friends
since boyhood and played together
on the same high school baseball
team.
