Coming armed with a ahort, choppy pawing attacK and clever floor work, the Redskins are expected to give the locals terrific struggle, although the Tlaera reln aa favorites tor both games. Medford thumped the warriors 83-0, In football, and the Indians have vowed revenge. Their mnln difficulty In scalping the Medford lads will lie In keeping up with the . driving, alashlng passing attack the locals have been drilling on. Coach Boworman of Medford said last night: "If we can get the Jump on them and take an early lead, I think we can handle them. They've had an In-and-out season, and that seems the wov their games have gone. But' If they gmb the lead from us, they're going to bo plenty hard to handle.

Miniiunuiiumuuniiu ULLunvJlliU unui UULUul UL I nllnULI WILL FACE MOLLIS I The "Kansas Hurricane," Wayne Long of Topeka, young and versatile wrestler who has been bluing a bril liant path In southern California rings for the past two months, baa been secured by Promoter Mack nil lard to meet Ken Hollls on next Monday's msln event at the armory. Long Is maater of 31 distinct holds, which he applies with such speed that he has won every match but one on his California tour. A shade on the meanle side, Long is said to be one of the moat aggress. lve of the younger wreatlers, and la conceded an even chance of taking Hollls, the. Arkansas meanle who has won every appearance here with his dirty, slugging and gouging attack. The "Hurricane" Is short and broad, with spreading shoulders that give him powerful leverage with his arms, and his build accounts for many of me most punishing holds' he uses. The second bout on the three star card Is a return engagement between Frank Taylor, big and handsome col legian, and Mai Olover, Detroit meanle. Taylor dropped a close, fast match to the Detrolter here two weeks ago, and has slnos been Insistent on return match. "He can't beat me again." Taylor said after that bout, which he insisted he lost on fluke. The match was the first appearance here for Olovsr, when he made an un popular Impression on the orowd with his habit of Jumping on Taylor's el bow while that Joint was tightly knotted in a hammer look. 1 The opening bout promises to furn ish plenty of thrills, when two mesn les clash In an Australian system match. A newcomer, "Duke" Pettl grew of New Orleans, will meot that unpopular favorite, Tiger Taskoff. The Tiger has failed to take many of his matches here, but with his butch ering Bulgarian fleroenes has man aged to thoroughly arouse the Ire of the fans on each appearance. The popular new low prices will prevail, SONS Off For Monmouth Tilts ASHLAND, Feb. . (Spl.) A squsd of la Southern Oregon Normal school hoopsters left Ashland Wednesday at ternoon bound for Monmouth, where a two-game series wilt be played with the Oregon Normal Wolves Thursday and Friday nights. The two contests will be the most, difficult to be played by the SONS this season, with the exception of the University of Oregon games. Are you a STRANGER in your own home? IT'S A FUNNY THING but most people don't half see their own homes. We pass by both the fine points and the places that need fixing, without a glance, without a thought. Yes, we all do this until some day we decide to look around and really discover the place we live in . . . Let's start with the living-room. That couch seat how dingy and dull it looks. And there's a rough place where the cat sharpens his claws. The little rug in the hall is ragged and frayed. (Why, that's a disgrace!) And that table top certainly MUST be done over. The mantel looks positively bare, since Ted broke that lovely green vase. And all those magazines and papers what we need is a good looking stand to hold them. You see the point. Lots of little things need "doing. And it doesn't take lots of money to do them, one at a time. . . . Just make a list of what's needed and then keep watching the adver tisements in this newspaper for good buys at low prices. Now's a fine time to find all sorts of good things for the house (Febru ary for furniture!), thing's you've been needing a long time, maybe, things you can have NOW without spending too much. HE Word was received here today to the effect that Pete Belcastro, color rul Junior heavyweight wrestling champion of the Paclflo coast now grappling, and doing "stand-In" work for Warren William In a Hollywood motion picture, may aoon return to the local wars, Belcastro has not appeared here In several months, being on a winter tour of southern California. Always popular wnn Medford and Klamath Falls audiences, he has Indicated to Promoter Mack Lilian! that he will return to southern Oregon for several weeks as soon as his present contract In the south is completed. Frsnkle Peck, another Medford fa vorite now In California, Is wrestling the main event In Oakland next Tues day night, and will be unable to ap pear on Monday nlght'a card here, he wired LUlard. Llllard had earlier at tempted to match Peck and Ken Hol lls, Arkansas hoodlum. In their only appearance, Peck, who Is t boxer of ability, slammed Hollls out of the ropes with a left hook when Hollls gouged his eyes, and took the fall, Hollls has asked for another ciack at him, Llllard said. NIP AND TUCK RACE (By the Associated press.) The alxKllrur MArf.huttU-n UA.lru league race boiled down today to a point where but two full games sep arated the leading Seattle Seahawks and the cellar-dwelling Calgary Tl gera. Seattle's seahawks clung to the first place by'reason of a 1 to 1 tie with the Portland Buckaroos on Seattle Ice last night. But the Bucks moved In to second over the shoulders of Idle Vancouver, leaving Edmonton and Calgary fourth and fifth. Calgary wreoked Edmonton's hopes of climbing Into a tie for second oy handing the Eskimos a 4 to 3 beat ing at Calgary. PORTLAND UNIVERSITY TRIMS UNFIELD, 46-28 PORTLAND, Fob. t.

Is mak ing a faster and more interesting game. When It was considered for In corporation In the rules last year It lost out by three votes, but Is In uni versal use In California now. Coach Bowerman of Medford huh school thinks it Is the only way to play, but since the southern Oregon conference doesn't recognize the sys tem yet, It Is generally agreed with the rival coach to use It hslf and half. Head Coach John Bunn of Stanford, the team leading the California scramble now, has this to say regard ing the center Jump: From the play er's standpoint Its elimination means elimination of many fouls and Injur ies, while from the spectator's stand point It speeds up the tempo of the game and makes It more interesting In various other ways. "Stanford had a good example of one of those points recently In Seattle when wo played the center Jump or the first time In two years. Our Cap- tain, "Dlnty" Moore, had his Up split wide open when the men on the side' lines charged the centers. That 12' foot circle, In my opinion, doesn't help a bit. "Aa for the spectator's reaotlon, you simply cannot play the center Jump here In California where the fans have gotten used to the new style game. The teams wt-uld be hooted off the floor." Head Coach Lewis P. Andreas, head basketball mentor at Syracuse, does n't see exactly eye to eye with Buun . m"M'- MT8! Mnter " on" OI " W "J"'."" "WT' n B"n associated with the game, and aa yet no good argument has been advanced against It. Willie some oo aches claim Injuries result, I have yet to see an Injury caused by a center-Jump In my 13 years of coaching. "The claim that the center Jump causes fouls la certainly not true In eastern basketball. Another argument advanced claims It Is unfair for a toll man to oontrol the tip completely. A smart defensive team will steal the tll-off repeatedly." One of the crowning arguments against the hoist play, as we see It, was demonstrated at the high school yesterday afternoon, when the high school squad was scrim maging against the Blue Raiders team. "Bed" gears, former high school star and now with the Kalders. was using his' specialty, a cross-over leap In the air to take the tip-off from his own center. With his eje on the hall, and sailing through the air sev-' eral feet off the floor. He crash on Into "Ked" Chllders, little high school player, and the two scarlet-topped bnsketeers went down In a heap. No one was hurt, but they might have been. Not more than five minutes later, Chllders was doing the same thing leaping blindly to get the ball from tip-off, and the result was the same: he crashed Into Sear8, and down they both went again. That happens lots of times In an ordinary playing sea son, sometimes as often as threo of four times in one game. There has been no better suggestion for getting the ball In play at the start of each period, but retention of the system after each basket seems a little use less. .
