Three top line boute have been crowded Into the evening, with Ken Kollla meeting Dude Chick, Prank Taylor tangling with Bob Kennaaton. and Tiger Taskoff trading groana with Max Olover. Bollla haa been, for two montha. the pet bate of Medlord fana, being the focal point of one major riot and several minor onea when the public become Incensed at his dirty tactlca. In Chick, Hollla will be meeting man who the fana feel will be more than able to calm the hot Hollla blood. Uuslng a "lariat" apln with deadly effecH, and wearing hie men down with airplane scissors, flying ahoulder butta and complicated arm locks and ahoulder bars, Chick haa command of three times as many punishing holds a the Arkansas ter ror baa shown here. The middle main event will see Frank Taylor, a lad who seldom be oomea angry, but who packs the wal lop of a mule when he finally does, against Bob Kennaston of Oold Hill. Xennaston has so far failed to miss an opportunity to kick or slug to get out of a tignt spot, out naa aovei oped Into a favorite of the rough bouse school of thought. The bet ting here today waa that Taylor will take at least one fall with his wild southpaw haymaker when he becomes angered at Kennaaton's snaay war. The opening bout Is one that Med ford fans apparently enjoy. Olover and Taskoff are both Inclined to take a Ideewlne now and then at the referee. Thla Invariably excites Ref eree Hay Friable, and the fans get a miniature battle royal. Both Taskoff and Olover are dirty, but the fans don't seem to object to dirtiness when applied to another meanle. Added to the fact that ducats have taken a radical drop In prices, Pro moter Llllard already foresees the biggest house of the year. edmoni,1attle : CLIMB HOCKEY HILL By the Associated Press.

Oae Mftll Tribune want eda FANDOM RANDOM By Dick Applegate MedXord'a ch ;.oaa of defeating Grants Pass tomorrow and Satur day nights are only fair, according to Coach Bill Bowerman. True, Grants Pass dropped two games to Ashland toy more lop-sided votes than did the Tigers, and ths Cave men spilt a two-game series with Klamath Palls, as compared to two Tiger wins over the same outfit, but Bowerman baa radically shifted bis entire squad since the last same. "Frankly, I don't know how thla team Is going to turn out," Bowerman said today. If Medford suffers a bad season In basketball this year, and it seems doubtful If they will, they will only bo doing that which everyone ex pected them to do at the start of Che season. Not many of the players out are basketball playera yet, al though all of them are vastly Im proved over what they were at the start of the year. Coach Achlson, over at the Junior high school, has develop ed a fine little team, and will be able to send some good play ers to Bowerman next year. The two coaches are using the same system, so that players from Tte Junior squad can step onto 'the varsity squad with a minimum of change in style.

VjSL IOEA I 8d Howard Hobson, Oregon basketball coach, says that his team has bet ter than an even chance to defeat Washington when the two teams meet again in Eugene.

He rounded out the list when he defeated Welker Cochran for the three-oushion title in their rec ent challenge match. In winning over Cochran he demonstrated that, at 48, he Is In his prime as a competitor, with the prospects for a long career still stretching ahead very bright In deed. Many people realize that Hoppe has been la world billiard champion since 1907 and recite that fact glbly, but few realize how long ago that was In a sports way. Hoppe la pointed to as the sole survivor of the "Golden Age of Champions" when Bobby Jones, Big Bill Tllden, Jack Dempsey and Babe Ruth ruled the roost, but the fact Is that the perennial "Boy Wonder" antedated all of these by many years as champion at 18.1 and 18.3 balk -line billiards. It Is amazing that today, some 39 years after win ning his first championship, he can go out and win the world three cushion title for the first time. Contemporary of Cobb Back In 1907. ths Wright brothers were still experimenting with flying machines and people were still con vinced that they were crazy, at least so far ass their dream of making the airplane a thing of practical value In transportation was concerned. Ty Cobb won his first American league batting championship in 1907. His average waa 350. By a strange coincidence, old Honus Wagner also batted 350 that year to win the Na tional league championship. "Three finger" Brown of the old Chicago Cubs led the National league pitchers, while Eddie Plank set the pace for hurlera in the American league. Babe Ruth was in an orphanage in Balti more and Dizzy Dean had not been born. Tad Jones was an all-America quarterback at Tale and the late Ted Coy had yet to win all-Amerlcan hon ors In 1907. A field goal still counted four points. TJp In Cambridge the Harvard old grads were saying that Percy Haughton might make a good head coach of football for the Crim son If he got a chance. That waa a year before Mel Shep pard won the 800 and 1600-meter Olympic championships In London. Those 1908 victories stamped him as the most celebrated performer of b day. He Takes Up Golf Hoppe had his first title a couple of years before Harry Payne Whitney put the Waterbury brothers and a youngster named Devereux Milburn on the fleetest pontes he could find and went to England to win the Westchester' cup from the British at Hurl lngharo. That was the first time the Americans won ths famous In ternational cup. It is truly remarkable that Hoppe. In middle age, appears as good as ever after having been tops In a nerve-testing sport for, many, many years. The answer is that he trains for an Important billiard match just aa any good athlete trains for com petition. Two years ago Hoppe took up golf and Insists that the game has worked wonders with his legs. In fact, Jack Doyle, one of Hoppe's closest friends, says that the cue ace Is in better con dition right now than he has been for years, all of which be attributes to the golf he has played at St. Al bans, on Long Island, the past two seasons. Despite the fact that he has been contemporary of three or four 'gen erations of athletes his chances of outlasting most of the present day leading lights of the sports world ap pear extremely favorable.

So, too, with Four Roses America's most mag nirtcent whiskey. Four Roses is a blend & blend of the finest American straight whiskies every drop distilled in the United States. This way of producing Four Roses is the result of Frankfort's 70 years' experience in making fine American whiskies. And these years have proved for us that the best whiskey of all is a blend of the finest American straight u hiskies. You see, each straight whiskey has some dis tinguishing trait of aroma, richness, or smoothness. And, blended together as only Frankfort knows how, the outstanding qualities of these fine whiskies com bine to make Four Roses a more superb whiskey than any one of the separate whiskies alone. So, when you face the inevitable choice between buying straight whiskey that's unblended; whiskey that's blended with neutral spirits; or a blend of straight whiskies and nothing but straight u hiskies remember uhat so many men of mellow years already know, and uhat so many other men are gladly learn ingthat the best uhiskey you can buy is a blend of all straight,all American u hiskies. . .In other words.
