Handicap Aftr the string of sensational wins chalked up by the University of Washington Huskies all through the I Mlinn If la Hftlai wnntar tVi tVi league leaders faltered on their latest barnstorming trip and lost three out of the four games played. No one expected them to drop that game with Idaho, but once they started on the down-htl) trail, the handwriting war on the wall. BfiMtpthnU is like hat. While It Is comparatively simple for a strong football ream to marrh through season without drop ping a game. It Is extremely un usual In basketball. Whether It's because basketball p liners are more dellentely put together, we don't know, hut Imagine that the mental strain has more to do with the situation than anything clue. Idaho couldn't go any further down the In drier, already being firmly earonaed In the rellar, so all they had to do was let fly with the ball every Mme they got a rhance. Often that kind of shooting Id more effective than the strained Mm!. I You've seen It yourself. When a player is dribbling down the floor and the referee's whistle blows or the gun ends the half or the game. It Is a strong willed young man Indeed who won't let fly with a long heave In the hope, apparently, that the referee will think he shot tfore the whistle blew. And did you ever see one of those shots miss fire? It seema to us they always go In. Even when the shot Is made over the play er's head, or with one hand, they al most always settle Into the net with sort of futile finality. That's the same kind of shooting that Idaho, and Washington Stat, were handing Washington. Oregon State Is bark In the running for the northern division honors. All they have to do Is thump Oregon this week end. and then take Washington two straight next. Sounds simple, but Washington has time to ptill herself together, and will very prohnbly he hot. While talking about occutlar situ ation In basketball, we're reminded to remark that the height of pains taking care Is a small boy chalking up the score after every point. Have you ever seen anything on earth done with such lahored but loving care? The kid Is generally several points behind In a fast game because he can't make his nines look like any thing, or because the two la bigger than the four, In 24. Incidentally, we're glad to note that the Medford high school hsa scuttled the foolish procedure of putting a kindergarten student on tha score board. They now make an effort to secure a score marker who has at least passed the primary arithmetic stage, and who can mark the score with some final ity. Instead of erasing and re-drawing It a hundred times. A minor point. Totals In 1631 the Medford and ftaJem high school football team battled to a 13-13 tie on Van Scoyoc field here. The spearhead of tha VI king attack was a Japanese boy named Sugal, who played havoc with the Medford defensea all afternoon. He's tha only football player we ever saw who could run on hla elbowa or knees. Now there la a wrestler In the northern part of the state who la making the heavyweight scuttle for cover. His name la Don Sugal, and he halls from Salem. We haven't been able to dis cover If he's the same Sugal, but Imagine he la. If he la, then, like George Wilson, his football training should make him a dangerous oppo BOWLING Hohlwag Campbell W.
