"All-Meanie" Card Slated for Wrestling Fans at Armory Tonight KNEES, KNUCKLES Al's Classic Profile Resembles Puce 1 EXPECTED 10 FLY Belcastro Meets Kaplan and Karasick Faces Newman in Double Main Event Grappling Card Tonight KnMt and knuckle are expected to fly In the all-meanie program u th Armory tonight, featuring a main event battle between a highly con fident Pete Belcaatro. the Italun klcker-upper, and a very belligerent Abe Kaplan of New York. With hla usual disdain for other brutal and unorthodox grapplers. Belcaatro announcea that with all hit underhanded tricks, the "Jewish Oent" la plnlnly up a creek aa far aa tonight's match is concerned, r.ie arrogent Italian, robbed of a chance laat week to make a fitting denote ment to Medford fight circlet before leaving on a tour of the east, plans to deliver the goods when they turn him loose against Kaplan. Last Thursday night he was so In tent upon making hla farewell match a sensational one that he carried It outside the ring, anil along with hla opponent, Hal Rumberg of Spokane, nearly squashed the spectators while rolling about In a free-for-all. Tht bout was called no contest, a decision that left Belcastro not a little Irate, but perhaps wiser. As for Kaplan, that sly Jewish "gentleman" la expected to pull his usual number of choke holds, halr pulllng fiestas and rlb-cracklng nh blt punches, but fans believe he will not get away with much against Pet, who doesn't hanker for rough treat ment himself, but loves to dish It out. "Awful Al" Karasick, the little Rus sian, Is pitted ngalnst "Bad Boy" Billy Newman of Denver, another m ethJcal grappl'r, In the first half of the program. With Karaslck's spectacular mat wlrardry and the Denverlte'a reputa tion for pure and simple skulldug gery, fans anticipate a hectle session between the two. Karasick Is granted a slight edge In wresting ability, hav ing met and defeated many of the country's leading wrsstlera In his dsy. but not always does wrestling ability decide the outcome of a match. Much Uke Abe Kaplan's. Newman's pl4i of attack la generally begun ith a shower of fists and feet, lu- toepened with halr-pulling, brtlin,'. ,c. to get an opponent into a state .bewilderment, ana then some sort I a surprise i, "finisher" that usually 'mints for a fall.

MARYS CAGE 73 61 IN FAST TILT By .Tohn Snider. Russ Brown's Champions topped the St. Mary's high school team last night with a 7.3-61 score. Extremely fast Is almost an inade quate description of this game played In the small high school gym. The Champions, newly formed, are apparently Just hitting their stride, for they played heads-up ball throughout the game. Although the St. Mary's outfit Is smaller and less accurate In handling the ball, they withstood the withering attack of the Champions admirably. Figures show that 134 points were scored, or 67 baskets were dropped, which would average a little over s. basket a minute. Richard Snkralda, Academy forward, completely domi nated the shooting with a total of 30 points. Don steuart. Champion forward, was aecond with 22 points. Loffer, Academy guard, swished two In from the center of the floor In his first basketball game. Tonight the Champions meet the Butte Falls town team at Butte Falls.

Coach Burgher of the local high Bchool today announced that hla starting lineup for Friday night's game with the Klamath Falls Pell cans would probably Include Bob "Lucky Pierre" Smith at the center position. -Campbell and Luman at forwards, and Kunzman at guard with either Sears or Van Dyke aa bis running mate. Hectto practice sessions all week on offense and foul shots have given this combination a smoothly polished team work that la expected to be an Improvement over anything that they have shown to date, and Indi cations are that polish will be needed when the Tigers tangle with the fast-breaking Pelicans. In a two game series with Ash land, the Klamathltes lost only by a couple of tall feathers, but a win chalked up by Grants Pass over the lads from over the hill glvea the locals confidence In their own ability to claw the Pelicans Into submission. The present Klamath team In cludes four members of the outfit that last year won runner-up honors at the state tournament, they having lost only their center through gradua tion. The team now presents players of assorted sizes and shapes, the re port having it that the team ranges In height from 6 feet 6 Inches to 6 feet 3 Inches, and weighs from 140 pounds to 170 pounds. With many victories under their belt, the Pell cans hope to add two more this week, claiming that their "beaks can hold more than their belllcans, or something to that effect, the locals threatening to knok their beaka off having made little If any Im pression upon them. A large delegation of rooters Is slated to arrive here tomorrow after noon to support the team, and a targe delegation from here Is ex pected to accompany them back over the mountain when they play a re turn engagement In Klamath Falls Saturday night.. The game tomorrow night la ex pected to be the most exciting to date for local fans. The probable starting lineups are given. Klamath Falla Medford Pastega F.... Luman Wakeman F. . Campbell Hodge ...

S t Afar o The little "bantam roosters" of sports have always held a warm spot In my heart, it's thrilling to see one of those tiny athletes make up for his lack of size with speed, brains and sheer pluck and cut the giants down to his size. Football, with Its bodily contact. Is generally conceded to be a game for the big. strong boya. Yet very of ten football teams carry a tiny speed boy to toss In now and then aa sort of ohange of pace. The New York Giants, national professional cham pions, had Willis Smith, a 140 -pounder from the University of Idaho, who scampered all over the gridiron like a scared Jackrabhlt whenever they turned him loose. A nil -r i f i k ! Boxing, to. Is a mighty rugged sport where size counts heavily. X recall an evening a few summers ago when Mickey Walker, a middle weight, chased the 200-pound Jack Sharkey around the ring. That was shortly before Sharkey became heavy weight champion. On another oc casion the Toy Bulldog pot ted Ar thur DeKuh some 60 pounds and knocked him out. A 64-Inch Homer Hitter! A few years ago Jack Dillon was known as Jack the Glsnt Killer Dil lon made life miserable for the big fighters of his day. Bob Moha was another little fellow who had great sport at the expense of the ring giants. The small but enduring Rabbit Ma ranvllle, recovered from the broken leg which kept him off the diamond laat season, hopes to be back at sec ond base for the Boston Braves this spring. Rabbit was a star on the Boston miracle team of 1014. The Brooklyn Dodgers have signed a 5 foot 4 Inch slugger named Nick Tremark. Nick waa quite a home run hitter when he was playing the outfield for Manhattan college and has a fine chance to stick in the big leagues. The boy Is a hustler. It waa always a treat to watch lit tle Henle Groh play third bane for the Cincinnati Reds, and then later on for tne New York Giants, HI cock walk went well with his bottlo bat and unusual batting style He had color. Itsy Bltny Is In Again Then there Is Bryan (Bltsy) Grant, the game little half-portion tennis player, who delights In upsetting huge top-notchers. Grant allows them great advantage In height and reach and then outsmarts and out speeds them. He holds the national clay courts title. Recently h e eliminated Sidney Wood of Davis cup fame In tha semi final round of the Miami BUtmore tournament and went on to win the trophy by defeating Berkeley Bell In the final. Grant, naturally, would like a fling at the Davis cup matches but Isn't letting the lack of Interest the com mltttee baa shown In his game wotry him. There'll be no professional tennis for him, he Insists. If he devoted all of his time to tennis, amateur or professional, he figures he would have ihout four more good years. And then he would have to start looking for a job. LOCAL BOYS INVITED y. A misunderstanding regarding Bob Hinman and a University of Wash ington scholarship published in yes terday's Mall Tribune was corrected today when Bob said he had a long talk with Conch Wilcox of the north ern university, who passed through Medford Tuesday.

Pool) OREOON STATE COLLEGE, COR VALLIS, Feb. 13. (Special correspon dence) Sketching the social relation ship of the family from early be ginnings when men dominated the home, through to the present time, when women have recognized and ac cepted their rights, Miss Flora Thura ton. acting professor of child devel opment at the school of home eco nomics here, stressed the need for an interdependent relationship in both the family and nation In her lecture this morning opening the fifth annual Home Interest Confer ence In session here. "These are revolutionary tlmea," she stated. We have passed the childhood period and have entered adoleacence In our national life, and must be very tolerant with ourselves and neighbors." Speaking of a fal lacy causing young people to suffer now, the speaker said that people have become over self-sufficient, and find it difficult to marry because they are dependent on nobody. She said that family life Is enter ing a new period wherein the more intricate and emotional phases will be considered, and where men and women will not meet in competition, but each will yield to the common goal. Flexibility la necessary in this new relationship, the speaker said, and this cannot be atained unless therels freedom from fear, and as yet people are afraid of being Inter dependent. "We must see the needs of other people," Miss Thurston stat ed, and In her conclusion said that education must insist not only on the individual adopting what he finds In the world about him, but on the world adopting what It finds In the individual. Parent Education Told The splendid progress that parent education Is attaining fn Improving the family life waa the subject of an exceptionally fine lecture before noon today by Miss Alice Sowers, specialist In parent education of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers. Every afternoon Miss Sow ers conducts a conference for group leaders in parent education. The cold downpour of rain this morning failed to crush the enthu siasm of over 500 delegates who ar rived for the conference, making the session the largest ever held. A large group of Portland representatives ar rived thla morning, with more ex pected later from numerous points of the state. Among prominent per sons attending the conference are Mrs. Harry Cramer of the Oregon Mental Hygiene society, who ts from Portland, and Mrs. Ralph Kletzer, state president of the Parent-Teacher association.
