PXGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKD, OREGON, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1935. E LOST TO OREGON IN COMING YEAR Callison Must Depend On - More Open, Offense As Michek and Donnell Will Graduate Line Weaker By JAMES 8, NUTTER Awociatffl Pwm Staff Writer EUGENE, Ore., Dec. 13. (AP) Gone re University of Oregon'! great line crumpling fullbacks, and ahead loom fleet, pass-slinglng halfbacks and more open offense In keeping with football trends which have captured the Imagination of touchdown-thirsty fans. There is no present Indication that the flying trapeze play, or possibly a triple lateral off a forward pass, will supplant Coach Prink Calllson's dread cruncher through the middle of the lime. However, more open play Is In store. Starts With Halflmcks "Naturally, open play must begin with the halfbacks," Coach Callison Mid today. "We probably will use more open style offense since our halfbacks, who were sophomores lsst year, will be considerably more ex perienced. Mike Mlkulak glorified the crunch er play the three yenrs he fullbacked for Oregon. In Mlkulak's senior year Frank Michek was understudy and his llne-cracklng ability and speed, mix ed with reverses, kept producing rip roaring goalward drives and touch downs. Michek finished with the 1035 sea son, and so did his fast-coming un derstudy, Jerry Donnell. Unless some one from this year's frosh squad, or possibly some transfer, cornea along fast, tne fullbacklng probably will suffer to some extent. Most observ ers agree, however, that It won't die no long m Callison continues to place strong offensive linen on the field. Hope By MldmriAon "Next year It will be necessary to ua a good many sophomores In the i backfleld and on ends, but toward mldseason, if the youngsters come through, we may be as strong as this yp-ar," cautious Conch Callison said. Eight lettermen will be lout by graduation. Fifteen will return. Five are In the bam k field and 10 in the line, but "several of these are very definitely of second string caliber," the coach qualified. The biggest graduation losses are Fiord an and Jones, ends, and Carter, guard. In the line, and Fullbacks Michek and Donnel ajid Quarterback John Relschmann. The line will be weaker, and fullback position weaker, but halfbacks stronger, the mentor predicted. . ' Ball Carriers Returning This year's ball-carrying stars, Brad dock, Good In and Lasaelle, All re turn for their second season of com petition. The upcoming sophomores present unusually strong material in Jimmy Nicholson, stocky, hard-driving spMdhall halfback, and Bob Anet, another shifty, speedy youth. All are fair passers, who should be better next fall. "Reserves? Better In some posi tions, worse In others, balancing about the same," Callison said. Oregon will be blessed by two re turning tackles. Del DJork and Ken Skinner, Tony A ma to at guard and Ed Farrar and Vernon Moore, centers. , The new schedule finds Oregon playing eight conference games. Most of these teams will he "as tough or tougher" next year, Callison predicted. FANDOM RANDOM By Dick Applegate 5 Fights Last Night Paulino UiKUdun. the Bounding Basque who has been bounding about these IS years without m-er having been knocked off his pins, is apt to experience ttmt sensation when he rune into the trip-hammer fiats of Joe Louis, Fri day. Paulino flatly states that he has ruined many promising ca reers before, and anticipates no trouble In ruin ing this one. But after all, what else could the man my? He's got to sound confident to lure the suckers Into the house under the Im pression that It Is going to be a good fight, and after they get there, what difference does It make If he loses he gets 30 percent of the take, which should be quite a tidy sum for Just lying on the floor for 10 counts, t'xcurtiin In an old man, as box ers go. He'll be lots older next week. Last year he lott a de rision to Max Schmeltnr. and Srhmrllng Isn't murli good. Whnt's mure. Hrhmcllng luis never llrked anybody thnt was much good, and he won't stnrt next June, when HE meets I.ouls. Which reminds us that a southern scribe recently aAkd: "What's be come of Max Baer? . . . Then adds: "On second thought, never mind." SKULKING GOLFERS EYE EAST SIRS 10 LEARN SECRETS BOWLING The Coast football conference Is going to Uiy home to tend to their knitting next year, with each of the conference teams excepting Montana and Idaho, playing seven games against conference opponents. Like Inbreeding, this might very well pro duce & sickly brand of football; or on the other hand, a singularly strong brand. But unless some games with outside teams are scheduled, the Coast league la going to go stale be fore long, or we miss our guess. Ore gon has dropped her St. Mary's series, California has dropped Santa Clara, and Stanford has dropped San Fran cisco. In view of the fact that each of tliMc conference schools has had anything hut good luck In emerging an easy winner orer their small opponents, the move was a Judicious one. Terhaps from a financial standpoint It was alon advisable, although the Santa Clarn-f'allfnrnla game ws generlly good for (15,000 paid ad missions. The result of excluding the Itttle-hlg opponents will prohnhly react the name wuy as tike treat ment did lo Notre Paine, when that squad was forced Into be coming a rambling out fit. seek ing games the country over. The result Is rather well kiuiivn. One of the best examples of sheer wit, although accidental, ifra emit ted by a lady of Medford who has long been convinced that wrestling here la decidedly on the shady side of the fence as far as the wrestlers are concerned. For classic example of why she believes this to be so is priceless. Quoth she, "You can't con vince me that these wreatling matches aren't fixed. Why. look at that thing they called a "riot" a couple of weeks ago. That Holllster, or Hollls. or whatever his name was. was Just pre tending to hurt Ijes Wolfe, and then when he got out of the ring a man hit him on the head with a chair. nd he didn't fall down. Do you think you can tell me you can hit a man that way and not have him fall down If the whole thing wasn't fixed?" We saw the chair-to-the-skull wal lop that ahe saw. and must confess we were completely taken In. We thought of all the thlnga we ever saw at a wrestling match, in or out of the ring, that was about as sincere as any. Just goes to show how blind to the skullduggery of the boxing commission one can become if he doesn't watch his step. (By the Associated Press) NEW YOHK. Pedro Montsnea.

The prowlers, four In number and led by a tall, dark man, have already been seen on several oc casions, peering from behind hedge rows and fences. The leader was ap prehended this morning by a Mall Tribune reporter, and gave his name as Eugene Thorndike, and his occu pation as vice-president of the Med ford branch of the First National bank of Portland, Thorndike stated that he was lead er of a gang of west-side golfers, scouting the east side prior to the annual Shirley Temple East-West golf tournament at the Rogue Valley Golf club links. The man refused stead fastly to "divulge the names of his cohorts, saying that they were well known Medford men. "This Is too Important a matter for fooling," Thorndike sold, adding that "this tournament Is played the same day that the East-West game Is play. ed in California, and we can't let our plans leak out. Last year we won by a point and a half, but we think the east side spied on us thnt year, so this year we're fighting fire with fire." Investigation showed that the guer illa warfare was a preliminary skirm ish to a golf tournament that has truly become important here, so Thorndike was released on his own recognizance, under ball of two tlck-t-ts to the tourney. A prominent police officer, who re fused to be quoted, stated that his Investigations showed that last year B0 golfers vied for a cup donated by Miss Shirley Temple of moving pic ture fame. Thorndike's story of the west side having won the cup by vir tue of a l1 -point margin was cor roborated. Investigation has also shown that approximately 100 partici pants are expected this year.

LOUIS WILL JEST OF ON BASQUE'S JAW NEW YORK, DfC. 12. (AP) A year almost to the day after he first achieved national recognition as a boxer, dusky- Joe Louts will step Into the Madison 8quare Gar den tomorrow night to give his now- famous punch Its hardest test on the cast-Iron features of Paulino Uzcudun. It was on December 14, 1034, that Joe beat Lee Ramage. Since then he has fought as often as his managers would let him and seldom has failed to produce a knockout with his lethal left. He put boxing back onto a "big time," basis last summer with his bouts against Prlmo .Camera and Max Baer, and he la expected to draw some 20.000 fans tomorrow. Although opinion Is almost unani mous that Joe will beat the durable Basque, who Is 15 years older and known more as a "catcher" than as puncher, the capacity crowd is expected to lay more than 100.00U on the line to see If he will be the first man to knock Paulino off ftls feet. U7.cudun, at 36, has risked his Jaw against 69 rivals, Including a lot of famous punchers, and has come through unscathed. He Is sure that Louts will not put him on the j canvas for the first time. A rnid;e match, with the strangle tne only hold barred. A match be tween two of the toughest torso twist er ever to appear In the Medford ring. A match that has all the prim itive elements wrestling fans could desire. That Is what is promised when Marine Bob Kennaston. the pride or ooia Bill, meets Ken Hollls, the wild eyed meanle from Oklahoma who two weeks ago ran amuck at the armory, requiring the services of a squadron of police to quiet him. After that match, during which Hollls had floored Kennaston with a blow on the back of the head, Ken naston asked for a match with the wild man. winner take all or other wise, with no hold barred and with no referee In the ring with them. Hollls demurred at some of these conditions,, which made little differ ence at the time, since he was barred by the boxing commission from ap pearing here anyway. The Qnflcultlee have been straight ened out with the commission, but the only way for Hollls and Kennaa- ton to settle their dispute la between the ropes. After the last match, Hollls roundly berated Kennaston, and promised to pull his leg off and feed it to him If he ever saw him again. In the capacity of referee, Kennaston had slugged Hollls on the back of the neck to force him to break a strangle-hold on Lea Wolfe, angering At that time. Kennaston stated that he could "hold his own" with any wrestler alive In a rough and tumble fight. l..at the Gold Hill muscle mangler's long suit, the rough and tumble. Referee Ray Prlsblc. who will be the third man in the ring, has been lnstucted to halt the fracas only if one man is choking the other. ana to not be too quick at doing that. Early In the week. Promoter Mack Lillard signed "Killer" Shlkuma. giant Japanese blade -belt champion, to ap pear in his main event in a Jlu Jltsu match. The possibility of blood and gore In the Hollls-Kennaston go has moved this match down to second place, with the "Killer" slated to trade twists with Le Wolfe of Texss. Since Jlu Jltsu Is based on nerve-klll- Ing and strangles, and the breaking of bones, the honse hss refused to be responsible for Wolfe's Injuries, but he has clamored for the match, re gardless of this fact.
