MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. 1IEDFOHU. OREGON, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1935. Tigers, Indians Will Open Two - Game Basketball Series Tonight PAGE TEN HARD-FOUGHT TILT IS EXPECTED WHEN OLD FOESTANGLE Burgher Quint Revamped, Strengthened for Contests Game Tonight at 8 o'Clock, Saturday Night 9 In what promises to be one of the most exciting gunes of the current year, the Medford high Tlgeri. re vamped and greatly Improved, tangle with the faat breaking Chemawa In diana tonight at S o'clock at the high achool gym here. 0 In a two game aerlea lat year the two teama took one, and thla year the Burghermelatera are going to try to make It two straight wins, Just to see what they can do under pressure. Playing with the Redskins will be Shoulder Blade and Spotted Eagle, old favorites In Medford, where they have appeared several times. The Chemawa team, like most of their teams. Is made up of short but fast men. and they employ a peculiar overhead passing attack that la bard to fathom. It gave Burgher's charges some difficulty last year, end the lo cal squad his been practtclng all week against the second string and cubs, using the overhead attack and feel that they can atop It cold to night. Last night a tired and travel-worn , Indian team went down to defeat before the mighty Ashland squad. 37-10, but the score Is no Indication of the closeness of the game. The Redskins worked the ball Into seor- Ing territory with east, but due. un doubtedly, to being tired, failed to connect with shots that would or- j dlnarlly count on the score board. j In previous games here the Che-i mawans have invariably proved col- orful, and the Medford fans expect to see an exciting encounter tonight. To those who have not been attend lng games so fat this year, but like basketball aa a game, the assurance Is offered by experts that they will not be disappointed In the fracas to night. Burgher has been experimenting with a new combination this week, which has worked smoothly and flashily. Earlier In the week Ettenger, long center, hurt has ankle, and Smith was moved to the leaping po sition. With VanDyke and Kunzman at guards, and Bears and Lumen at forwards, that combination wlU probably see action tonight and to morrow. The game tonight will start at 8 o'clock, with the Saturday night struggle called for 0. to allow busi ness men and women to attend. As considerable expense has been In curred In bringing the Chemawa team for an appearance here, It Is hoped that a larger crowd will be In attendance. An. additional Incentive to attendance is the fact that the In dians are regarded as the best "show 1 team" In the state. Probable starting lineups are glv ' en: Chemawa Medford Spotted Eagle W.P... ...,...... Luman Shoulder Blade ..P Smith Sandervllle ,...-..C Ettenger Archambeau O .

PETE AND TEXAN HECTIC CONTEST Sad Sam Let hen, limber Texas grappler, and belligerent Pete Bel- castro of Sacramento slugged and kicked at each other for one hour last night at the armory to end the main event wrestling match In a draw. Plenty of temper brought out plenty of action during the bout and gave the crowd of fans a session of combined clean wrestling and "dirty work" aa first Sad Sam and then Belcastro took thfc offensive. When the bell rang they were both ready for the showers, having split the honors nearly evenly. Pete, the drop - kicking Italian, showing more spark than he has for some time, proved harder to stop than Sad Sam had expected. In the first place, he waa in better physical shape than when he met Lethers the first time at the armory, and the beating he received during that flrat tussle served to spur him Into a bet ter type of wrestling. Although he resorted to old-fash-lontd haymakers, clenched fists and hair pulling time and again 'when the going was rough, Belcastro. 194. used more genuine holds and dis played more skill than he has here In the past. But Sad Sams famous "rubber legs" proved too much of an obstacle. Wherever Pete weht, those two legs were either there waiting for him or bouncing Sad Sam Into safe corners of the arena. Lethers was unable to crack down on his opponent with any of his usual devastating "finishers." apply ing only two of his favorite rocking- chair scissors. Belcastro crawled or walked to the ropes to break both of thesj and retaliated with several at tempts at his own masterpiece the drop-kick, also unsuccessfully. The tall Texan, 208, was tempted Into more unorthodox matwork than usual. He chafed Belcastro through the ropes more than onoe with his onslaughts and also heaved his light er opponent over the strands. The two kept Referee Ray Frlsble not a little worried and at times even Im plicated In their grappling. What looked like sure defeat was turned. Into victory In the opener when Abe Kaplan. "Jewish Gent," slugged Paul Boesch of Brooklyn, dropkicking Adonis, out of an In dian deathlock and then applied a body pre.s to win the third and de ciding fall. Plst slinging and hair pulling, in terspersed unexpectedly with Boesch's clever drop--kicks marked the tussle Kaplan took the first fall In 15 min utes with a body slam that caught Boesch unawares, but both grapplers were hanging onto their heads and stomacha during the last part of the period from the effects of each other's fiss. The drop-klcker swung Into action with two rapid-fire leg punches to win the middle tumble in five min utes, one minute longer than Kap lan took to gain the final fall. Boesch had the match on Ice but for the slug ging ht received, and hid hla oppo nent thoroughly aware of that fact. Boesch weighed 319 and Kaplan a pound lighter. Florida's Evergladea contain 3.- 000,000 acres of level land, 300.000 acres of which have been reclaimed for agricultural purposes. IELEN MOODY READY TO RESUME TENNIS SAN FRANCISCO, Fb. 1.
