Although Nealy cornea to Med ford u a dark horae. Promoter Mack Lll lard mva he could have found no better opponent for the popular Ne braitkan. Newcomers are usually good drawing cards and during the last sev eral seasons have resulted In several excellent "finds." When Newcomer Nealy tkea hi corner at the armory tonight, fan will be prepared for anything from clean, scientific wrestling to an ex hibition of fists and temper, for when the Nebraskan, a native of Czecho slovakia, gets hi "dr rider" up. It takea a good man to stay In the ring with him. Hubka. however, has always con trolled hla temper In local matches. contenting himself with application of hla many colorful holds, and hie specialty for fancy leg work. Having been trained ".id managed by Joe S tocher, former claimant to the world's heavyweight champion ship, Joe prldea himself In a thor ough knowledge of the profrwlon. Hfc likes to use his legs In taking fall.', snd la especlnlly adept at clamping on a front body scissors, then tumb ling over In a backward somersault to pin hla opponent. Louie Bacagalupl, who has a. repu tation of being an uncouth Indlvld uaJ, will make his first appearance here tonight. In a aeml-flnal bout with popular Don Wagner, an ex football star who climbed into the athletic limelight at O. A C. Bacagalupl, known aa the "terrible (Italian," will probably be a hard as signment for the big Oregon Stater, although the latter lias come out on top In most of hla local hug-fesU Wagner la one of those wrestlers who put every ounce of tils energy Into a contest, and with his big. angular frame, Is a hard man to throw. He alio Is capable of uncouth grappling, and will probably stand for little mal treatment from the 22 a -pound son of Italy. Fireman Hay Friable will referee. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 91. (AP) Jlolly wood's Stara will go after the eoast league pennant this season with new manager at the helm who makes his debut at a time when It appears baseball la dun to pork up with a rod hot race In the offing. Frank Shellenback, pitching veter an of the Stara, finds himself honor Ml this year after faithful aervice by the added duties of manager. "Shel ly" Intends to assign himself mound work regularly. Aa he already holds the lengue rec ord for pitching victories, there la n uch reason to believe he may boost the total to where It will be out of reach or rivals for many yenra to pome. Shellenback, who broke In with the eld Vernon club In 1020 and has been splt-balllng in the league ever since, replaces Oscar Vltt. He does not In herit much in the way of material.

SONS DEFEATED BY OILERS, SEEK T Tn a double header Benefit game In Klamath Falls last night, the South ern Oregon Normal school varsity and freshman basketball teams both went down to defeat, the varsity losing to the Union Oil Independent team from Portland, 33-24, and the frosh drop ping a hot contest to the Klamath high school, 22-31. The Normnl five simply couldn't get atnrtrd, missing bp tups, and their long shots rolling off the rim for no tally. The Hobsonltea still hold an advantage of two out of three games, having defeated the Oilers twice ear lier in the aonson. An idea of how far off the SONS were Inst night Is given by the fact that Howoll, usually a dead shot on foul offerings, missed five out of six last night. A contributing factor, probably to the Normal defeat was the booing of the hitgo crowd, over a thousand, that jnmmed the Kin math gymnasium. It wns the lnrgont crowd ever to wit ness a basketball game In that city, and most of them were rooting for the Portlnnd team. The Aahlnnd outfit has vowed re venue for tonight, when the teams again meet In the high school gym here at 7:30, and th game Is apt to be faat and rough. The off night in Klamath Falls will in all probability not be repented, and the Normnlltes are expected to come back with ail the brilliance oi which they are capable. The game la a benefit affair, alT the proceeds of which are to go to ward sending the Ashland team to the national championship games in Denver. A huge crowd will be on hand tonight to witness the encounter, many from Ashland having declared their intention to be present. Ad vance ttrketa on sale downtown in this rlty have gone like wildfire, and the game is threatening to be a sell out. Arthur. a.H referee, and Croxdale. aa umpire, have both voluntered their services for the benefit and both of ficiated in the game at Klamath Falls last night.

A7 TIGERS' HOPE FRIDAY CLASH Oloom Is draped heavily about the Medford high school basketball en campment today, with Smith. Tiger guard, and one or the nest men at guarding that the squad possesses, possibly out of the lineup against Ashland with an injured hip, whtch prevented him from dressing last night. The hip Joint was hurt In practice Wednesday evening, when Smith collided with Ayres, and a twist sustained when the big guard slipper ona rock while limping home about flnishea tne Job. Smith has had trouble with the hip before, an old Injury sustained in a baseball game some time ago having been giving him considerable pain ever since. He may get in the game. but certainly not for long, and may not see action at any time tomorrow night. i Adding to the depressed prospects of a Medford win Is the fact that Luman, star forward, Is suffering from the flu and, though arising , from bed yesterday afternoon to practice with his teammates, Burgher sent him home before he dressed. He may not start the. game, but will probably see action. The rest of the squad are In good phsylcal condition and planning for the battle of their lives, in an effort to wrest a win from the fast-breaking Ashland Grizzlies tomorrow. The feud which has exlsiud between the two schools, often times culminating in fist and egg fights, is giving Indica tions of being even bloodier this year than before, although the action will be confined to the floor Instead of the adjacent empty lota. The two teams have apparently outgrown their childish proclivities for carrying the THE GRANDEST BRANDY-TYPE LIQUOR YOU EVER TASTED Apricot Nectar ... the delicious flavor of ripe luscious apricots with that glorious warm-me-up feeling going down. Just enough grand fruit flavor to refresh. So soothing and satisfying when you're tired of harsh liquors. It's the nation's taste sensation ... for parties ... for nips. And here's a tip . . . the ladies, too, like it very much. It adds that full-bodied fruit effect to cocktails, and it's a delicious treat drunk straight. We repeat, it's the grandest brandy-type liquor you ever tasted. The price? Ah, there's another pleasant thrilll You'll be surprised at how economical it isl OLD m. YOU CAN DRINK rivalry outside, but the Inside battle will not diminish in fervor for that Although "frendly" enemies, the feud will come to a head In Friday's game, before what la expected to be the largest crowd ox tne year In this city.
