INDIAN QUINT AIM
OF TIGER OUTFIT
Without benefit of war paint, or
whoops, the Chemawa Indiana prowl
Into the lair of the Medford high
school Tigers tomorrow night for
the first of two games In the annual
series between the two schools.
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. I've seen these
Chemawa teams before, and . they're
always surprising.". i .

preme Importance pf the -fast break
under the basket; Almost helpless
In the opening part of the game,
the Tigers were clicking shortly after
the half and dropped floaters
through with regularity from then
on.
Members of the Tiger toam are
all In good condition. Indicating
that they will continue the driving
game that has oarrled them to vic
tory over all opposition with the
exception of Ashland. In nearly all
of the encounters, the Tlgore have
been rated the under-dog, taking
favorite honors only In the Wood
game.
The starting lineup for the locals
will be: Hayes, center; Lewis and
VanDyke forwards, and Tinker and
Undley, guards. The Indiana have
not announced their starting five.

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,

ASHLAND, Feb. . (Spl.) A squsd

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.

Word was received here today to

Frsnkle Peck, another Medford fa
vorite now In California, Is wrestling

gouged his eyes, and took the fall,
Hollls has asked for another ciack at

Abandoning of the tip-off In basket
ball, a thing not yet officially recog
nized by the rules committee. 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

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. .
