MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKD, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1935. BELGASTRO PINS WRESTLERS SIGN If! BATTLE ROYAL BEAVERS, UNFED j Champion Here for Rodeo PAGE EIGHT rw?vC lit FANDOM AT RANDOM By Dick Applegate HOW THEY r-w a a, i r AMI I iOv, TO 1 FAREWELL ITCH Pete BelcMtrtVs farewell party lut night at tha Armory turned Into an unpleasant evening for the Italian from the ring with a oaoiy twiswa foot to pay for winning two straight falls from Strong Man Rocky Brooks of Canada. Things were going nicely for the Weed Wildcat until he took a flying drop-kick at one of the tattooed pic tures on the strong mans chest, bowl Ing the Canadian over like a ten-pin. Belcastro followed up the kick with a swan dive onto Rocky's midriff to pin him In four minutes for the de elding tumble, but when they un tangled themselves it was the Pacific coast Junior heavyweight champion who looked like he had been through a torture chamber. The twist came when Belcastro's number nines rlcho cheted off the strong man's Illustrat ed epidermis and landed on the can vas sldewlse. When the match started Brooks began to exhibit his strength by breaking out of Pete's armlocks with an unconcerned smirk on his face, but he made a mistake when he started shoving Pete around, mostly outside the ring. After Pete had skidded off the edge of the platform for the third time, he climbed out of Verne Shangle's lap with a bit of coaching in his ear and gave the surprised Canadian a kick through the ropes that accounted for fall No. 1. After that Brooks was leary of Pete's feet, but when they had ex changed a few hangman's holds, to the consternation of Referee Friable, Brooks was too groggy to dodge the final drop-kick, offering a splendid target for what will probably be Bel cantro'a last exh Ibl tlon of footwork here In some time, as he Is sched uled to grapple in Mexico City In the near future. Toots Estes, speedster from Hono lulu, monopolized the other half of the main event by taking two straight falls from Danny (Ho Flies Through the Air) Savich, using .spectacular maneuvers both times. When Danny tried some of his trapeze work in the ope nl rig stanea, he found to his great surprise that he and Toots would make an excel lent team. Danny took a flying high dive at the Honolulu speedster but, Just as he was sailing along minding hi own business, Toots plucked him out or the air with the skill of an Hrtlago dancer, whirled him on his shoulders In an airplane spin and plunked him to the canvas to take the first tumble, ! It looked like curtains for the flashy Islander when Bavlch applied a Boston crab during the second ses . Hon, but Tooth worked out of the punishing grip and maneuvered 8a vlch Into position for a walloping re verse back drop that accounted for the winning fall. Bob (Marine) Konnaston of Gold Hill used a reverse he ad lock In the opening bout to defeat Johnny Boos after a session of muscle mangling that saw the challenging sailor com- ptetely out-meanle the ex-football player from Indiana. Cheering the stocky footballer, who was recently barred for chair heaving, the fans booed Kennaston out of the arena. lied Stevens won the 140-pound championship of Central Point In a preliminary scrap by defeating Benny Bubb with a body press.

ON THE FOOTBALL FRONT EUGENE, Ore., Sept. 30. (API The wall of "no reserves" probably won't sound as loudly this season about the University of Oregon foot ball camp.

Box Scats Grandstand Bleachers Children O Tlikels on .ale to See Pet Pn- at Medford. Now that local wrestling fans have seen their first heavywelgt battle royal and their first title bout, Pro moter LI Hard announced today that next week's wrestling program at the Armory will feature a middleweight battle royal the wrestling game's last word in massed speed. LI 1 lard has already secured five tal ented mlddlewelghta Toy Aho of Portand, Roland Warren of Klamath Falls, Russ Rtley of New Mexico, Cur ley Woods of Med ford and Floyd Wolfgang of Medford who will tear Into each other all at the same time until there are only two left. Then the two survivors will take a rest and battle It out for the championships. Most fans will recall the heavy weight battle royal as the fastest ses sion of multi-wrestling they have ever seen a three-minute conglomer ation of feet, arms and battered bod ies but the difference between the speed of a middleweight and a heavy weight wrestler, multiplied by five, will be the percentage that the forth coming mat spectacle will be -6 tapped up. All the prospective participants have demonstrated their talent in matches here, each proving himself an outstanding middleweight, and. unless several gang up on a poten tial winner, the outcome should be & toss-up. To supplement the battle royal. In case It ends before the sound of the gong fades away, as was almost the case in the heavyweight struggle, the promoter will line up two other bouts to open the card, featuring Challenger Kennaston In one against the toughest possible opponent. IT TRIM CUBS TO GAIN RECORD ST. LOUIS. Sept. 20. WP) Two weary, tlht-llpped brothers, Dizzy and Paul Dean, today saw only the threat of the rampant Chicago Cuba between them and a new hurling rec ord. The slab artists of the world cham pion Cardinals, all their early sea son bolsterousness drawn out of them In a desperate attempt to pitch their teammates to their second straight National league pennant, are only three games back of their amazing 1934 string of 40 victories. , Dizzy boosted the family total for 1935 to 46 yesterday when he snap ped out of a three-game losing streak to hold the Brooklyn Dodgers to six hits and then turn In a 0-1 triumph, his 27th of the season. All the gangling boys from the hill country have to do now la take four of the 10 games remaining on the Cardinal schedule, and they'll have a new record for 1935 and a strong argument for a raise In 1030. But the last five of those 10 con tests promise to be bitterly contested battles with the rampant Cub of Charlie Grimm who have rlddon roughshod over the National lexgue for a still unbroken string of IS tri umphs. LASKY'S SECONDS TOSS TOIL IN FINAL ROUND ST. PAUL. Minn,, Sept. 20. f.T) Art Lasky, Minneapolis heavyweight, appeared estranged today, if not di vorced, from the top ranks of the boxing business through a second technical knockout defeat at thu far mer fists of Charley Retxlaff. North Dakotan. Limp and reeling. Laaky tost a chance to reconcile earlier defeat on a comback dating from west coas, triumphs when his seconds tossod in the towel in the tenth and final round last night. Retr.laff's bombarding right, which had to slow a fuse to get him much of anywhere in eastern rings, bat tered Lasxy to tne brink of a knock out often, from the first round on. ADMISSION $110 85 55 25 niler ! ear .A A A. Office. SJ So. Blver.rte I'hnrte 31? The Alumni of the Medford hU?h school may. If they hurry, assemble a team to play the high school ag gregation a week from tomorrow Ray Henderson, upon the insistence of several of the grads. has finally ac cepted the position of manage; for the outfit, and Is now taking the names of all those who want to play In the game. After a conference with Coach 'Bowcrman, it has been decided to allow the St. Mary's high alumni to participate, also, opening the way for such stars as Bob Lewis, Dick and Paul Sakraida, Warren Loa fer, John Smith and others. If all the football stars who hod ever graduated from the local high school were assembled on one squad, what a squad it would be I Tko this one: Bernle Hughes, center; Bill Morgan and Burdette Kindred, tack les: Jack Hughes and Irvln Bowman, guards; BUI Bowerman and Red Mc Donald, ends; Al Melvln, quarter back; Max 0 1 11 risky and Leo Qhel ardl, halves, and Ben Harrell, full back. There Is a hoard of others who would fit In there nicely, such as Bob Hlnman at end, Ed Demmer at tackle, and Swede Anderson as a blocking back or in the line. When Don Steuart was playing cen ter for the high school, his burning ambition was to be as good a conter as was Bernle Hughes before him. Thats' a large assignment, but Steuart came about as close to filling it as anyone we can think of. Now he is registered at Northwestern, and his burning desire Is to be an ail-American if he can possibly cut it. At least he picks the toughest ambitions he can find. Al Zermer, big back who followed Bowerman south, has turned in his suit and returned to Portland, His friends say that dreadful, homesick ness has assailed him for the. past two weeks, and Bthat he has lost 13 pounds in as many days under the broiling southern Oregon sun. His departure removes a god prcspect for one of the tackle posts. His father and brother, who came here with him. also returned to Portland last night. It seems that all of our best wres tlers are products cf all our beat col leges. On nearly all of the wrestling crdas here, maln-eventers list an im posing background of college degress. There's Joe Hubka from Nebraska, Johnny Soos from Indiana, Danny Savich from Utah, Pete Belcastro from California and St. Mary'e, and as many others as you could count ! by tens on your fingers. At least one credits his education of the school of hard knocks. That's Al Karaslck, the Russian Lion. Stocky and aging. Karaslck is still ! one of the toughest men In th ir.-ime. ana nes not big. He weighs 185 at the outside, but his wiry muscle and knowledge of the game have carried him a long way. One might think that the wanderer from the steppes Is an unlearned man. And there one would be wrong. He pores over every book that he can find, and laborious ly studies It out. His favorite bosks are biographies, and what he learns he remembers. Many a college graduate, who could romp through Anthony Adverse In a three-evening sitting, would blush ! with shame at Karasick's knowledge and familiarity with great American names.

(UP) Broadway and Harlem agreed today thai young Joe Louis probably will enter the ring Tuesday night at lexst a 2-1 favorite to beat Maxle Baer In the biggest betting fight In his tory. This Is sharply contrary to opinion which prevailed earlier In the week, when It seemed a certainty that ring time would find wagering at even money. Despite bales of Baer mqney which showed throughout the nation during the past week and thousands of bets made at odds ranging from 9-5 to 7-5, there was such a flood of Louis money on the market tonight even in Maxle's own California that the quotations must lengthen in favor of Louis. At least that's the verdict of Jack Doyle, veteran Broadway commis sioner, and Oswald Newton, big shot Harlem betting man. "Why man I Ah's got twenty-five thousan' dollahs on man. han'a right now from colored citizens all over the south and Harlem, Just a-cryln' for Maxle money,' said Newton, a tall well-proportioned, middle-aged negro. "An Ah caln't get on Baer money 'Jess Ah offers moren' 3-2! An Louis money Is Jest pourln' in. Ain't noth ln will stop Joe goin' Into that ring lessen a 2-1 favorite. Suahl All took plenty bets aroun 7-5 befonh those Baer folks got scalrt right late ly more bet 'n Ah ever saw befoah." TO Entranta In the annual P. A. T. golf tournament at Rogue Valley course werj urged in an announcement from the club today to turn out for their die con d round matches in time for completion of the second bracket over the week-end. As only one match has been played during the wek, It Is expected that the course will be crowded tomorrow and Sunday, and the players vie for the right to enter the third bracket. H B. Bentley of Ashland, winner of this year's southern Oregon cham pionship,, defeated Lee Watson, 3 and 1. to win a place In the third frame ahead of the rest of the field. Bent ley gave his opponent nine strokes. A complete rearrangement of han dicaps will give each player an equal chance at the trophy as the tourna ment progreses toward the finals.
