r PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOBU. OREGON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 10, 1935. Pete Promises Tony Bad Night ENDEAVOR QUINTET v T 'I L PLAY IN S. V. UNORTHODOX ACES MATCHED IN MAIN EVENT ATARMORY Fiery Belcastro Promises to Show Countrymen Some New Tricks in Punishment Hubka, High in Opener If th. wrestling match lt week between Pete Belcastro. belligerent Italian, nd Red Devil seemed rough, then th. on tonight between Bel cutro and Tony Catalano, mother boly terror when It comes to unorthc dol grapplers, should prove aa enter taining, speaking In terms of excite ment, aa n eruption of Mount Vesu ylus. Both Catalaho and Belcastro. who represent the northern and southern sections of Italy respeclvely, don't know the meaning of the word "fair." or, If they do, they seldom ap ply It In the ring. Although a tooth was broken and bis neck badly twisted In the colorful bout last week he won from the mysterious meanle on a foul, Belcas tro Is ready to "take" Catalano In short order. Ho Intenda to use every thing he knows In the line of dirt, which will probably be no less than what Catalano has up his sleeve. Arriving a few days early "to get used to the cold weather up here." Pete said last night that ha Intends to tear Catalano apart, and that he will then wrap up his fellow country man and aend him back to the old country, as "One wild Italian Is enough over here." It Is expected that when these two choke and chuckle artists clash. It wilt take even a faster camera than Verne Bhangle Intenda to use to catch them In one place long enough for a picture. There will be no long, drawn out grunt and groans In this battle. It will be one glorified se ries of haymakers, klcka (both the plain and fBncy drop-kick varieties) and occasional healthy "chaws" with th. teeth. The odds stand about ven, but It la believed that Belcastro baa never before tussled a man as unorthodox as his rival countryman. Promoter Mack Llllard has planned to meet the taate of every fan, how aver, by assuring one bout of abso lutely straight bona bending. Joe Hubka, former football player from the University of Nebraska, will be the, party of the first part, and Jimmy Jinrh of Chicago, a newcomer to the pacific coast, and a highly-touted one. will ba the party of the second part. ' Pana have anticipated this third appearance here of Hubka, who knows his hammerlocks, and la one of the fastest heavyweight ever to visit Medford. Thla boy likes to wrestle with his feet, and plans to do plenty In the way of Indian deathlocks and scissor holds against the Windy City man. High la also conaldered a thor oughly clean and scientific wreatler, coming to Medford and the west coast with a record of few defeata. It Is yery seldom that two such top-notch scientific grapplers are algned against ach other, but when they are the result Inevitably la a match that fans go home talking about.

(AP) Pug Nosed Oeorge Lott and Lester ("Little Rollo") Stoefen, a couple of weary young athletes, were neatly started on the way to their first million to day, but for them both the atart of this professional tennis road was paved with nothing but dollars and dlsullustonment. They came Into Madison Square Oarden before 14.818 people last night a crowd that for ermine. starched shirts and tall hati rivaled metropolitan opera opening and they lost' all but honor and the I3V4 per cent of the $20,000 net gate re ceipts Promoter Bill O'Brien paid them for their professional debut. First, Bill Tllden, despite his 42 years, knocked Lott off In straight sets of a single match, 8-4, 7-5, and then Tllden and long Ellsworth Vines stripped them of their right to the title of the world s greatest doumea team, amateur or profeslonal, by win ning one of the most senatlonal matches ever played, 3-8, 14-18, 11-13. -8, 8-4. Bo long did the doubles match rage, 2 hours and 51 minutes, that It was too late when It ended to stage the final scheduled contest, a singles combat between Vines and Soefen. Vines was a magnificent Improve ment on the youngster who only a year ago made his professional debut. PORTLAND. Ore.. Jan 10 (API What practically amounted to a fum ble decided a spectacular drop kick, flying tackle wrestling match In fa vor of Joe Savoldl when he met Paul Boesch hero last night. Each scored a fall or ehoulder touchdown aa their punishing "punting" duel waxed warm. Then In the final session Boesch's drop kicks had Savoldl on the run toward coffin corner almost toward the coffin Itself. It seemed. But Boesch, bracing for a finishing cross ring lunge, stepped on Referee Verne Harrington's size 10 foot and "fum bled'' away his balance. With a terrific double drop kick the former Notre Damo fullback hit the line Boesch's waist line and crumpled the 220-pound Brooklyn Adonis. Three more drop kirks fol lowed to run up superfluous "first downs" before Savoldl clamborcd abonrd for the final shoulder touch down or fall. Savoldl, of Three Onks, Mich., weighed 203.

Medford basketball fans have asked for it, and they're going to get It an exhibition game between the un tried but hard fighting local high school, and the fnst breaking; and clever St. Mary's all-star five. "Burg" Burgher (the high school coach revealed this morning that ! what he was on lied hy his class mates In college) has signed the In dependent team for the feature game of a regular content to be played at the high school gym Friday night. The next night Burg's team will meet the Roseburg bunch here. The high school quint worked out last night using a new scoring' com bination, with Ray Lewis In the line-up. The five, comprised of Et tenger. Smith, Sears, Kunzman and Lewis ran up 28 points to the sec ond string's 3, In a few minutes, something that they have not been able to do regularly. Ray Ettlngcr, at center. Is Im proving rapidly, especially in follow ing shots In to take them off the back board for cripples. Smith, the southpaw guard, has been practicing diligently on his passing, and cut-back floor work, as has been Kunzman, who la develop ing a dead-eye for long ones which flick the net regularly. Smith's fort Is his turning leap shot, which ac counted for several points last night. Sears, the red headed forward who will probably start agatnst the Saints. Is becoming a tricky dribbler, and team-mates find him a good "feeder," If passing the ball to an other man means a safer afcot at the basket. To go with Sears, Burg has found ft Ropbuck In the form of lit tle Ray Lewis, the shortest man on the squad, hut one of the mightiest In playing ability. Lewis, In tomorrow's encounter will have his hands rull In trying to get by hla brothers Bob and Dick. St. Mary's flashes. A family encounter which should add considerably to an already Interesting situation. The Saint team has run up nn Im posing record this year, losing only two out of ten games played. One of the two was the exciting game lost to the SONS frosh In Ashland Saturday night, 35-33. They met ftnd defeated the powerful Crescent City all-stars In that city two weeks ago. The ocean city team la the same one that last year handed a sting ing defeat to the highly rated House of David barnstormers. With Bud Llndley at center, Har ris ftnd Boh Lewi at guards, and Dick Lewis and Hoke Curtlsa at for wards, the Gaels present a swift breaking offense and stone wall de fense that may hand the Burgher- me Inters a beating, according to Bur- Rher himself, who optimistically pre sented the thought that If his team goes down to defeat before the Inde pendent flashes, at least the game will be close And hard-fought. The preliminary will start at 7:30. with the participants not yet an- nounced. Coach Klrtley of the Tiger Cubs la on crutches with ft sprained ankle received In practice, but may send hla players against an opponent In the curtain raiser. Burgher hna been coaching the Cubs during Klrt ley'g absenoe. -f Spoar SLANTS There's ft lot more to this game of table tennis than meet the eye. And especially when you're watching the world's champion table tennis team in action. Then It's Almost too fftst to follow. The visiting team of Hungarian table tennis stars, Viktor Barna, world's champion for the past four years, and &ndor Glancz, former English ftnd Hungarian champion, made an auspicious debut In Phila delphia when they trounced the United States' team without the loss of single game. Tn their amazing bow they defeat ed Coleman Clark, of Chicago, ft for mer national title holder, and Ed ward SUverglade, of Trenton, N. J. Perry Once Ruled Roost i Barna, a Hungarian living In Paris. ; has been .the outstanding star of the game, since Fred Perry, of England, the present ranking amateur lawn tennis player of the world, last won ' the world's table tennis crown In 1929. Olancz. the only player who has ' beaten Barna In the past two years, was world's top ranking table tennis player In 1927. This famous international pair ; has been Instrumental in winning the Swaythllng cup, emblematic of i the world's table tennis tenm su- I prcmacy, seven out of eight timeH i since Lady Swaythling donated the i trophy In 1926. There must be something to this 1 game of table tennis call It ping pong If you prefer, If there are ten million players In America, as It is claimed. j The ball travels such a short dis tance and so fast that It seems you ; barely hit It before it comes bounc ing back to you. No time to get set for a shot when you're playing this brand of tennis. The Old Fundamentals And yet It takes tlmtng and tech- ; nlque. lots of both. Short, darting strokes, made so by the necessity of returning the ball In a split second. You don't have much trouble work ing up ft sweat, either. I While it looks much like its big brother, lawn tennis, few lawn ten nis stars have been particularly adept ; at the table game. Fred Perry la the i one exception. Still Perry won the ! world's table tennis title In 1929 be- j fore he took up lawn tennis serious- j iy. Most of the present day lawn ten- nls stars enjoy a match of the table variety and many play a fair game but It Is very doubtful if one of them could extend any of the 30 top rank- : Ing table tennis stars tn the country. In a fast, hard fought basketball game at Phoenix, the local Washing ton school eacles team trounced the Phoenix Townles 40-18 last night. After getting off to a slow start the Colonials hit their stride, and ob tained a lead which they retained for the rest of the game. The game was featured by the good work of Coats, eagle center, who scored frequently all through the game, gaining high point honors with 16 points.

"A far as Z know I will be here Indefinitely. he stated.

Burgher admitted that If a bet ter opportunity was offered to him then the position he now hold, he would consider It, but denied that any such offer had been made.
