PAGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MED FORI J. OREGON. FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 22. 1935. Ashland to Invade Tigers' Den LITHIANS HOPEFUL ROWLING I'SONS WIN, 42-27, OF REVENGE FOR Smith and Luman May See Only Part Time Action Preliminary Starts 7 P. M. and Main Game 8 o'clock Tonight Is the nlghtl At promptly 8 o'clock this evening the Medford Tigers will rage head-on into a wildly fighting Grizzly pack from Ashland In what promises to be the bloodiest battle In years between the old enemies. With the most Impres sive Ashland record In yeari staring them In the face, the locals are nothing daunted, and Intend, by close checking and fast offensive work, to upset the dope bucket and emerge with the Grizzly tall tacked to the score board. Smith. Tiger guard and center, will definitely not start, but may see action for a short time. Luman, suffering for the past week with an attack of flu. Is back on his feet, and will start the game. His cold haa broken, but he Is still a bit woozy, and will probably not re main the entire time. The Ashland squad, the members of which were in Medford last night for the SONS -Oilers game, are all declared in the pink of condition and think that this Is their night to howl. Whether they howl In Joy ful victory, or with the smarting of a defeat remains, of course, to be seen. Cockiness, always a bugbear to the favorites, seems to be lacking In Ash land's makeup this year, so the locals are hardly looking for any advan tage from that angle, planning on making their own "breaks" -through fast hall playing. With Smith out of the lineup, Burgher may have to put two men on Hardy and Hoxle, main Grizzly scoring threats. If the going get too much for one man to handle. If Campbell guards his man aa closely and cleverly aa he did Qlovanlnl In Klamath Palls last 1 week, however, thla may prove a superfluoua ges ture. Campbell tying the Pelican flash in knots all evening In the mountain city encounter. One of the largoat crowds of the year Is expected, with several hun dred fans rom Ashland planning on coming over for what they confi dently expect to be an annihilation of the Meuford forces. Certainly, on paper, the odds point towards Aah land. So many fans have signified their Intention of attending that It has been found necessary to reserve two whole sections, and school authori ties have announced that those ex pecting a place of vantage to wit ness the struggle had best come early. A good preliminary, between the Klamath Wildcat and the Tiger second string, haa been arranged, to start at 7 o'clock, so those coming early will be amply entertained. The Wildcats defeated the Medford out fit In the Pelican city last week In a close, hard-fought game. Lineups for the main event: Ashland Meoiora ..P Campbell ....F .

Hubka, whoso wiry legs accounted for much of the fireworks, had the 216-pound Callfornlan sewed up In clever leg holds during most of . the bout. He used n spectacular airplane leg hold r "nutcracker" hold to gain the first tumble, after see-sawing back and forth with the chunky southerner for 31 minutes. Healy came back for the second fall fully aware that he was up against a tricky matinan, but succeeded In eluding Hubka's devastating pedal extremltlos In time to use a "back-to-back" body slam to win this fall In seven minutes. Had Healy not been over-anxious, the match would have endrd right there, as when properly applied the back-to-bnek body sUm will knock a wrestler unconscious. Jimmy, however, flipped his oppon ent over a bit too soon, and only succeeded In pinning his shoulders. For the other 31 U minutes of the bout Hubka and Healy both applied dozens of clever twists, but the Corn hunker's strength was too much for the Callfornlan. who resorted to a few rabbit punches the only ones of the match to keep on even terms, That Hubka and Healy put on such close match was in-obnbly due to the fact that they both learned the grunt and grimace game from two ex-champions. Hubka picked up his technique from Joe Stecher, former world heavyweight title holder, while Healy was a protege of Al Karastck. who held the world's middleweight crown in 1915. Hubka. who weighed In at 203. was unquestionably the stronger of the two in proportion to his sire, but he found It difficult to pin the beefy San Franciscan. Healy said the bout was the toughest he has had for a good many years, and was much Im pressed with the Cornhuskers wiry strength. Although he took a terrific beat ing during most of the seml-flnal mutch from the persistent reverse head locks of big Louie Bacagatupl of 1.0s Ane!es. a newcomer of surpris ing brute strength.

KU UNIUN MIL IN BENEFIT TILT; Before a huge crowd at the high school gym last night, the Southern Oregon Normal school basketball j team avenged a defeat at the hands of the Union Oil company five from ; Portland the evening before in Klam ath Palls, by coming back to take j the Oilers, 42-27 tn an exciting and sometimes rough game, although no one was chased from the game on personal fouls, as happened the night before. In the first quarter the close checking of the Oilers held the Hob- sonltes on even terms, with both teams In a narrow lead at various times, but the last half of the second found the SONS penetrating that Iron defense more regularly, and half time saw the score 15-10, -with it still anybody's ball game. Prom the tip-off In the second hslf, however, the Normal offense meahed to draw rapidly away with Howell, giant SONSs center, flipping them In from under the bucket with almost monotonous regularity. The fast tiring Oilers could do little to check the gathering avalanche, and not once In that last half did they threaten to rally and tie the score. Laat night's win was the third for the Ashland quint, out of a aeries of four games with the Portlanders. Howell was h I gh poin t ma n for the SONS and the game with 20 markers, McLean gathered 10. Court ney 7. and Patterson, colored flash. totaled 5. Buck" Grayson, a cousin of the famous "Bjhby" Grayson of Stan ford football fame, and Grenler tied for high point honors for Union Oil, with 1 7 each. The game, a benefit affair for the purpose of sending the Ashland squad to the national A. A. U. cham pionship games in Denver, drew a huge crowd, and Dr. Edwin R. Durno, chairman of the committee In charge. estimated today that $250 had been taken in In paid admissions. Almost a thousand people saw the fc-me, but many of them were high school and Normal students who were ad mitted at reduced rate. The Union Oil squad donated their services, taking no cut from the proceeds, but only getting their bare expenses. Summary: 30NS Union OH Patterson (5) P .......

O.'s and a de cisive three-round decision. The fastest bout of the night was staged with Snider of Applegate de cisionlng Wood of Stesmboat, after a terrific three rounds. Sntder was conceded each period, forcing the fight from itart to. finish. In the main event, Williams of Indian creek knocked out Cham pagne of Spririg Plat In the first minute of the opening round, with a chance right hook to Champagne's throat, leaving him temporarily un able to rise before the last count. The fight gave promise of a real battle In a possible rematch In the finals. Preceding the main event, Logan of Carberry creek smashed his way to victory over Romano ot China Plat with a technical K. O. in the third round. Logan thrilled the large crowd with a fighting stance similar to that used by the famous John L. Sullivan. The third bout saw Dunbar, prac tically out on his feet in the third round, gamely trying to finish with Moore of Indian creek. The referee stopped the fight. In the opening bout of the classic fight card, Cas tellano of Oak Knoll won over Cameron of Spring Plat with a knockout In the third round. Both boys were on a par until Castellano brought over a crushing right cress to Cameron's Jaw, ending the bout. Last night's smoker marked the conclusive finis to the four elimina tion trials prior to the district CCC championship bouts to be held at the Elks' lodge here March 7. The fistic gladiators will be chosen from the list of winners for the coming fight, presenting the best talent In this district.
