OCTOBER 16, 1935 ARE POLISHED FOR ASHlii FRIDAY Coach Achison Giving the Youngsters Fine Founda tion for Football Success Sportsmanship Stressed I i Coach RiumII Achison, new football mentor at the Junior high school here after bringing hie light but fast squad rapidly forward durinff these first weeks of practice, la ready to hurl them against the Ashland high school second team at Ashland Friday. Oct. m hn Announced today. The past few nights Achlaon has j been polishing ma attact wwr wi inff htii oreen sauad wade through the 6t. Mary's high school eleven 27-0, and again by a 20-7 score, in pracuw games. In a recent game against the Medford high third string. Achlaon' lads slammed over the only touch down of the gam with nice blocking and running, and he now feels that they are ready for their first real test. Teaches Fundamentals The new coach has made a remark able Improvement In his squad. "My main objective for Junior high foot ball," he said last night, "is to give complete training In the fundamen tals of football. By teaching these young players the correct way to block, tackle, run Interference, pass and punt they will develop more rap Idly when they reach high school and begin their training under Coach Bowerman. "I was confronted with a squad of ry green boys at the start of the season but they are enthusiastic and eager to learn and 1 now feel that they know their A-B-C'a of proper charging positions and line plays." Already the coach has several lads developed to the point where It Is obvious that they will be of benefit en Bowcrman's squad next year. Elton Cunningham and Winston Campbell have shown considerable ability In tossing the pigskin to Bob Verblck and John Wall at ends, to form the ' passing combination upon which the light team will lean heavily. Fine Running Attack The running attack of the team has been partially successful due to some nice blocking by Clifford Clegg at fullback, and shifty open field run ning by Rodney Stead. Stead has a fleet pair of legs, and Is learning to use them neatly In the open field. In the center of the line, Louis Therman and John Prentloe have been showing some nice drive, and aggressiveness, but the other guard and tackle posts have been giving Achison headaches, he admitted last Bight. Albert Brewer and Don Mon te 1th are working at the tackle post bow, with Armlne Lewis at right guard, but all three lads are green. "I found no criticism to make con cerning the squad's playing against the high third team, with the boys playing good, hard football, but the next week they were terrible against the St. Mary's team. In the second (tame with that outfit. In this game many minor Injuries appeared, fur nishing excellent proof for my theory that the team that charges, blocks and tackles hard doesn't get hurt," Achison said. Sportsmanship Stressed "In reviewing my objective In teaching fundamental football and good sportsmanship. I'd tike to point out that we're playing ball not only for experience, but to win. I am a firm believer In good sportsmanship, and being able to take it on the chin n we lose, but I'm not teaching my boys to be good losers. We're going to win If It's physically or mentally possible", the coach emphatically stated. - Achison said that he was more than agreeably i.xrprlsed at the fine equip ment which the citizens and the rhool board have provided the squad. "Oood equipment cuts down Injuries" he stated, "and I have never sen bet ter equipment In any high school In the state. Medford Is certainly coop erating In turning out physically fit young men. and we appreciate it wholeheartedly." He announced a tentative lineup for Friday's game, but admitted that he may have several changes before game time.

Paddock of sprint fame, an alumnus of the University of Southern California, today sounded a warning to Coach Howard Jones that his football teams must "begin to show results again." "That's his Job." said Paddock, in the Long Beach Sun, of which he la business manager. "If he does not do It, then he does not deserve to remain for an Indefinite period as head man of what was once the thundering herd." He was both a fine coach and a fine character builder. Now he seems to be little else than a character builder and In the latter capacity he lacks the personality, the human touch and the guiding hand to be classed with such leaders as Alonzo Stagg and the late Knue Rockne. "Jones must change this system or his plays or his technique. He has the material. He has speed, brains. CORVALLIS, Ore.. Oct. 18. (AP) Warned that University of Southern California was stronger than its score against Illinois Indicated, the Oregon State college football players entered their final stiff practice today before Saturday'a game with the Trojans at Los Angeles.

Oct. 18 (AP Coach BUI Spauldlng had defensive scrimmage plays mapped out for his University of California at Los An geles football squad today after two afternoons of comparative rest.

BERKELEY, Cal., Oct. 18 (AP) A new backfleld luminary will shine for California in Saturday's game with Santa Clara If the Judgment of Coach "Stub" Allison Is correct. Allison announced yesterday that Sam Chapman, who played three quarters of the Oregon game last week, will open at the right halfback post In plsce of Perry Thomas. 80 mlnute star of the St. Mary's contest.

John now being In Spokane writing for Transradto and a couple of radio news broadcasts, then your pleasure can be doubled this week, for John has an article In this month's Issue of Esquire, One for the Money," ap pearing on page 34-B. Unfortunately, the former Medford lad's name does not appear on the story. It being "ghost written" for one "Hiking Ike" Peterson, former Gonzaga backfleld flash, now with a professional football team. Reddy's style Is manifest all through the arti cle, and some of his whimsies are easily recognized as improbable from any other pen. The article deals with football as played In the small college, and the probability of a small college star making good In professional football as compared to the All-Americans getting out of the bigger activities. BUI Morgan, also of Medford, Is mentioned in the story, as is Stan Kot-ka, former Oregon star, who last year received Ail-American rating at Minnesota. The story Is well worth reading. On Saturday, the Gonzaga Frosh meet the Oregon State Rook at Multnomah field in a game- that Is exciting considerable Intereat in the north. The game will be the first for the Toy Bulldogs, who have had the usual fate of freshmen, and have been steadily scrimmaging the var sity, alternating Idaho, Oregon, Ore gon State, Washington State, and other coaat college plays. Says Coach McGrath of his charges: "So far the boys look pretty good, but X can't tell much about them until X see them In action. The line will be fairly heavy but the back field will be very light. Our offen sive will be built almost entirely on speed and deception." . Much of the speed and deception will come from two Medford lads, Dick Lewis and "Leaptn' Leo' Ghe tardl, with Lewis slated for the start ing halfback position. A bulletin Just received from the school says that Ghelardi, whose forte as every Medford fan knows, la running the ball back with his dizzy spins, will see plenty of action during the game, but will not start because of his smallness. When the Toy Bulldogs get In scoring territory, however, Ghelardi will be sent In, and every effort msde to break him into the open for one of his scoring sprees it the Rook goal line. Lewis is given a sendoff In the fol lowing manner: "Dick Lewis, another Medford boy, will start at half. He Is a fast, shifty type of ball carrier, and fits Into the deceptive Gonzaga style of play very handily. Yewls Is a triple-threat man and will prob ably handle most of the kicking and passing assignments. The Rooks will have a touch assign ment in the Toy Bulldogs. Ronald Baker, also of Medford, Is still suffering from an Injured hip. and McGrath Is leary of playing him in this game. The weight chart sent out indicates that Baker now strips 175 pounds, an Ideal weight for the fast, hard blocking guards used at Gonzaga. Donald Lansing ajnd Vernon Hansen of Enterprise and Gilbert Lorenzinl of Portland are other Oregonlans who will grace the Gonzaga lineup. Use Mall Tribune want ads.
