Grips in Middle Go

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.

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.

JUST suppose you wanted to find the word zyzzle in

insane waste of time.
Now, suppose you need accessories for houseclean

household needs for spring. Yet you waste time and
effort, if you walk from store to store . . . wander from
