MEDFORD MAIL TRTBITXE. MEDFOKD. OREGON. FRIDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1935. PAGE FIVE POLICE 10 GUARD I0NDAY EVENI IIMf Football Builder Promoter Mack LUlard announced today that there will be special po licemen on duty at tne Armory Mon day night to usher Ken Hollis. mean le wrestler. Into and out of the ring. There will also be police to see that Bob Kennaston, his opponent, gets to and from his dressing room with a minimum amount of buffeting by ' the fans. The move was taken upon the advice of the Medford Boxing commission, anxious to prevent a re currence of the riot which broke out upon Hollis" last performance here. Wrestling authorities were at first determined never to allow Hollts to appear here, after that riot. But since it was a fan who kicked Hollis first, rather than Hollis opening hostilities by kicking the fan. they have finally relented, although at first It was sug pested that If Hollis and Kenna&ton wanted to settle their grudge they do so on the Eagle Po.nt desert instead of In town, or at least In some town other than Medford. With no holds except the strangle to be barred, the match Is to be the first "wide open" event here In years. For a long time such events were outlawed by the national and state wrestling laws, but these barriers have been modified as long as a ref eree Is In the ring. With no raise In prices for the event, the largest crowd of the year is predicted by Llllard. The middle event, and one slated for top spot while the Kennaston- Hollis negotiations were hanging fire, will offer "'Killer" Shikuma bulky Nipponese Jiu Jttsu expert against Les Wolfe, the hawser-gammed Texan. In addition to the fact that he Is the only "black-belt" Jiu Jltsu ever to appear In this country Bhikuma also has the doubtful ad vantage of possessing the largest feet In the wrestling profession. Upon oc casion he drops these giant pedal ex tremities upon a hapless opponent's corns with telling effect. Wolfe has never encountered the Jiu Jltsu style of wrestling, but be lieves he can more than hold his own with the "Killer." This remains to be seen, he has admitted, but a signifi cant feature of the match Is the fact that the authorities have refused to be held responsible for any Injury to Wolfe. In the curtain raiser, Rex Mobley. powerful Alabama pride, will meet Frankle Peck of San Francisco In a return bout. Last week Peck worried out a win over Mobley by wearing him down, and Mobley has demanded a return match, under the Impres sion he Is the better man of the two. t """" 1 , EUGENE L. MURPHY Eugene L.

Central. KJCKERNICK" Undergarment that fit at Ethelwyo B Hoffmann' When the football rules committee meets in February it very likely will be confronted with an organized lobby demanding that the goal posts be restored to the goal line. The field goal has become a rarity since the posts were set back 10 yards to prevent serious accidents to backs plunging over the goal line for touchdowns. Many coaches and foot ball enthusiasts miss the thrill of this valuable scoring weapon and want to see the place and drop kick restored to its proper place on the gridiron. Professional football jjlnyers have suffered no injuries of importance despite the fact they have kept the goal posts on the goal line. Field goals figure prominently In their scoring and that feature of the game is one of the reasons why the pro game has enjoyed such a pro fitable season. There are plenty of fine place kickers in the pro ranks today, the outstanding trio being Jack Manders or the Chicago Bears, Ken Strong of the New York Giants, and Kay Kercheval of the Brooklyn. Dodgers. Foot Is Minimized It seems odd that In the game called football the tendency of late has been to minimize the Import ance of kicking. The rules have been amended to promote passing, the purpose of which was to open up the game. That's well and good but only up to the point where that phase of the game Is stressed at tho ex pense of kicking. How many times have you Been a college team resort to wild, desper ate and futile passes when their running attack stalled inside the 15 or 20-yard line? They feel forced to gamble, with wild passes where the defense has tightened up. whereas they would Increase their chances for a score by 60 per cent if they had a proficient kicker. The addi tional 10 yards the ball must carry under the present collegiate rules has doubled the chances of kicks going off line or short, and conse quently few field goals are attempted A kicker like "Monk" Moscrlp, Stanford's versatile end. Is a rarity in this day. And yet without the help of Moscrlp 's educated toe It Is extremely doubtful if the Standford Indiana would be prepared for their third successive Rose Bowl engage ment. Other Toes Save Games Ken Sanbach. of Princeton, If another handy man to have around when three points arc needed. He was deadly with his kicking of the polnts-aftert ouch down all season. And against Yale he proved he was Just as accurate from the 1 5-yard line. Actually, his field goal In that game had to carry over 25 yards. Marty Peters, of Notre Dame, came in mighty handy when his field goal gave Elmer Layden's team a victory over the Pitt Panthers. Another taw of the urldiron likely to come up for attention at the rules committee meeting Is the one which provides that the ball be brought in 10 yards from the sideline after It has been kicked or carried out of bounds. The pros have found that their practice of bringing the ball in an additional five yards permits greater freedom of action and havo convinced many of the coaches that the ball should be brought In 16 yards if it is to fully accomplish the purpose of the rule. College football coaches are giving plenty of attention and study to the pro game and the manner in which the pros are working out their prob lems. And wisely so. for the average pro football player boasts at lenst 10 years of active experience In the game. That's why, In many cases, the pro rules are more practical and often less confusing. live so long that puzzled Mrs. Mar tha Stciger today, but why? "Undoubtedly." she tells her fami ly of tin ee daughters. 12 grand chil dren, 30 great grand children and six great great grand children, "It's for some very good reason perhaps I don't quite understand it. "But I know there Is something In this pattern of life I have to get done even though It seems to be taking a long, long time." She has been blind for the past two years, but this, too.

(UP) A gradual shift ing from dairy to beef cattle produc tion Is revealed in a survey by Iowa State college extension dairymen. Farmers, who between 1920 and 1030 concentrated on milking cattle, are now breeding beef cattle sires to dairy cows, particularly through the corn belt, according to dairymen. The reason for the shift, collage economists declare, is the more fa vorable price being paid this year for beef and hogs over dairy products. In Iowa, male calves are being sold as vealers or fed out as feeders. Milk ing has decreased sharply this year, dairymen report. Economists point to August prices for the answer. Veal calves, beef cat tle and hogs were higher in relation to butterfat than they were during the world war period U916-9), when dairy production was at a disadvan tage as compared with meat production. In general, the dairyman can look forward to a more profitable winter this year than last year, according to economists. They cite the following reasons : Seasonal low point In prices has passed and a rise Is in prospect; that this rise should be aided by expand ed consumer buying power; butterfat prices are higher in relation to feed grain prices than they were a year ago: butter prices In England have risen, so that foreign shipments to this nation are no longer favored, Explaining the shift from dairy to beef cattle production, economists point out that in the large dairy area of the nation the north central states cattle raising Is elastic and herds can be easily utilized for i dual purpose, depending on th rela tlve profitability of dairying compar ed with hogs and beef cattle.
