PAflTC TWO MEDFOTCD MATL THTBUNK MEDKOKO. OREGON, MONDAY, MARCH 16. 1936. Meanie E Chick and Rogers to Trade Grips in Middle Go Caddock Faces Newcomer Dr. Cosneck in Opener "The main event battle between Ken Hollla and Al Karaalck has e- cltod more comment than any single wrestling match In tna last several months," Promoter MaUe Llllard said today In reference to the squabble between those two master meanles In the main event of the three-ply card at the Armory tonight. Hollls, still smarting from the addling given his Internal mechan isms by Dude chick's lariat spin last week, has promised to vent his - epleen on the wary end ever danger ous Russian tonight. Known as the most merciless butcher ever to ap pear in a Medford ring, Hollls hai frequently expressed confldenoe In tils ability to batter the ex-ballet dancer Into Insensibility. Karaslck, who will be making his second appearanoe here after a six months wrestling tour of the south and esst, has seen Hollls wrestle only cnoe but worked up a high regard for the Arkansas's flying lists and feet In that engagement. Asked If be thought he could weather the storm of dirty blows Hollls Is sure to shower upon him, Karaslck point ed to his psst reoord, dotted with tif clelve wins over the fire eaters - of his profession. "I get mean myself, sometimes," he said with a grin of relish at the prospects of a real bat tle. "I like 'em tough. It's no fun licking a man who lays down and takes It," the Russian said. The middle main event sees Dude Chick pitted against Stanley Rogers, the leathery Lithuanian. Rogers Is of the school of thought that depends on wearing the oppondent down with punishing arm holds, scissors, head locks and slams, while Ohtck has a wealth of more spectacular holds, capped by hie phenomenal airplane spin. In seeing Chick take two matches with that spin, Rogers has evolved the theory that the only way to stay out of the circular Jaunt Is to keep Chick busy disentangling himself from crab holds and other lntrlcaclce of the Rogers art.-Chick will have a seven pound weight ad vantage. The opening tuule will see the smoke breathing ex-gob, Mike Cad dock, against a newcomer to Med' ford, Dr. Barnoy Cosneck, University of Illinois doctor of philosophy. Cad dock needs' no Introduction, having shewed and hammered himself Into top ranking aa one of the foremost local meanles. In his last match here he so enraged the usually calm Ray Friable that Prlsble almost choked him to desth with a towel In an effort to Indues the navy man to leave the ring. Cosneck fsvors clean wrestling, end boasts a repertoire of grips calou lated to subdue the most stubborn meanie. He Is said to be extremely fsst and aggressive, and of approxl mately the same size as Caddook, The first two bouts will be under the Australian system of six 10-mln uta rounds, the main battle to be under the American system of two out-of-thre) falls or one hour of wrestling. ,he opening curtain goes up at 8:30.

Oe.it I redone "ffi" ' 7 T ' i"" FANDOM At RANDOM By DICK APPLEOATB The atatement that "the Improve. ment In the Medford high school basketball team from the first of the season to. the last was nothing short of phenomenal." cornea from no less an authority than Head Ccach Jean Eberhart of the Ashland Normal school. Eberhart made the statement Saturday while here to scout the CCO basketball tourna ment for prospective material. "I came down to watch Med ford scrimmage a couple of times early In the season and they looked pretty hopeless," Eberhart said. He added that the passing was bad and the shooting worse, with practically none of the play ers versed In fundamentals. "When I saw them toward the last or the season I couldn't be lieve It was the same squad," Eberhart said, and lauded Coach BUI Bowerman for his feat of making the assembly a well rounded team that was no one' ' set-up. The 33-lnch golden trophy that Camp China Plats won In the-COO tournament Is a remarkably hand- scme one, and will be engraved with the team's name and held as a per manent reoord that their basketball team waa the best In the district. The other cups, going to each di vision winner, are smaller but the same material, and will probably re ceive top listing as the most prised possession of each camp. Sam Colton, more or less guiding light of Softball In Medfcrd, haa suggested what we conaider an ex cellent plan for the coming league games. Sam has suggested that each club pay is into the league coffers at the start of the year, this pool to Do neld until the final playoffs later In the season. The pool would then be split two days., 60 per cent to the winners, and 40 per cent to the runners up. giving the players somrthlng to work for through the scneouie. Turf football fields will eventuallv be as common In this part of the state aa ore lawns at the present time. That Is inevitable. There Is no earthly reason why there are no turf fields In southern Oregon now, with everyone conscious of the fact that grass will grow here aa well as It will In California, where nearly every high school has Its own grass play ing field. The Medford high school Is lead- Ing off the parade, with the finish ing touches being put on the field now, preparatory to planting In the next few weeks. Men are going over the field now with hand cultivators getting the soil, which was hauled there specially to receive the grass. ready for the planting. Those In charge of the work as sert that the field will be ready for play by fall of this year. The grass to be planted la not the ordinary type lawn grass, but will be grown from seed producing strong, matted and tenacious roots. The sod thus formed will. If everything goes well be able to withstand the wear and tear of cleats through most of the games, although It may be decided to do all the practicing ot the sea son on the old practice field, covered with aawdust. Not to be left behind, the South em Oregon Normal has fallen Into line and will also plant turf on their field In Ashland. The field at pres ent la suffermg from the same all ment that afflicted Ashland high school field for so many years It la slanting, and la made up of de caylng granite. The field will be leveled, and top soil put on In the future. Klamath Union high school Is also considering the planting of turf On their Modoc field, which Is now the moat up-to-date athletic plant In soutnern Oregon. e - FOR NEXT WEEK'S CARD Pete Belcastro, llghtniim fast Ital ian wrestler, alwaya popular with Medford audiences, will probably meet the winner ot tonight's main event at the Armory, on next week's card, It waa announced today bv na. i uuard, promoter.
