This wiMfc't wrestling matches, and those the week following, should be among the best ever held In Med ford. Both Prince sillkl Ibn All Hassan Mlhslakls and Frsnkle Peck have' long coveted Pete Belcastro's Pacific coast Junior heavyweight championship belt and neither will spare the horses , In en effort to take the -elimination bout. Both men express a calm assurance that they -win take the match Monday and then drop Belcastro the following week. ' although neither Is quite ' so confident about the last. . Mlhslakls tested Belcastro's mettle last week, and Peck had an opportu nity to do so on two occasions, and their opinion of the champion's prowess increased tremendously. One of them will have another surprise when they meet Pete with his title at stake.' With possession of that belt risked; Belcastro becomes wildcat. The man that beat, him Is going to have to be some man. Something we've noticed about wrestlers Is that, even though most - of them come from big elites, they seem to like Medford as well as any place they've ever been. It Isn't because the houses here pay them more, for they don't, of course, but It's Just because of the people In the town, the scenenpy around,"- and the opportunities for vacation-, Ing. Frankle Peck has become so enthused over the city that he now bill, himself from Med ford, Prince Mlhalakls plans on returning for a lengthy summer vacation here. Danny Savlch ad mits that he likes the place particularly, and Pete Belcastro's admiration for the valley Is well known. Ken Hollls dldnt like Medford a bit. We saw him hiking down Main street the last week he waa here, and he looked so forlorn and lonely that we felt sorry for him and In vited him out for dinner. He wasn't hungry, it seemed, and thought Medford was probably the worst hole he'd ever stepped Into. We saw some kids out on ' Stewart avenue playing a game called "peg-It" the other night. We saw the same game up In northeastern Canada a few years ago but had completely forgot ten how much fun It Is. We'll give you a brief description and you can try It some evening. All the equipment needed Is a length of broom hsndle about three feet long and another piece about eight inchea long. Two. or as many as you like, can play. The oatsman, armed with the long piece of broom handle, digs a small trench, about a foot long, three Inches wide, and three Inches deep. In the ground, the long end of the trench pointing toward the fielders. He lays the short stick across this hole. ' Then, putting the end of the long stick under the short one. he gives It a boost down the field. If the fleldera catch It. the batter'a out. hut If they don't, the one nearest picks It up. and attempts. In three tries, to throw It Into the trench. The batsman defends the trench, trying to knock the short stick swsy. If. In three tries, the fielder gets the short stick Into the trench, the bats man haa to pick up the stick, toss it into the air, and bounce It three times on his bat. The third blow he attempts to knock the pin back Into the field, and the game starts over. If he doesn't hit It three times, he's out and the fielder goes to bat. It sounds simple, and It 4s simple. but It's a lot of fun. And It's good exercise! If the lnltlsl boost of the stick la too easily caught, the game can be made more difficult by knocktng tha stick away by hitting it with the bat. PECK A! PICE IN RIGID TRAINING FOR MONDAY FRAY Busboy Still Missing PORTLAND. Ore., April 17. (AP) The disappearance of Roland Wes- terman, 33, hotel bus boy, lengthened into a week today without word from him. He dropped from sight last Friday, leaving some pay undrawn and money In a bank account. PORTLAND. Ore., April 17.

With a chance at the Pacific coast Junior heavyweight wrestling crown now .worn by Pete Belcastra hanging lfe the balance, Prince Blllki Mlhala kls of Arabia and Frankle Peck of San Francisco have both gone Into rigid training for their elimination bout on the main event wrestling card at the Armory Monday. With warm weather bringing the streams of southern Oregon up to comfortable temperatures. Prince Ml halakls Is getting his conditioning by the swimming route, while Peck Is confining his efforts to road work. peek wrestles the main event at Vallelo, Cal.. tonight. Belcastro, who will tangle April 37 with the winner of next Monday's event, has gone Into hibernation In northern California to whip himself Into shape for the contest. It will be the second time that Belcastro has defended hla title in this city, he having unmercifully hammered Johnny Boos into defeat on the pre vious occr.on. . The middle event between George ("Wildcat") Wilson, all-Amerlcsn halfback from the University of Washington, and Danny Savlch, all Amerlcan guard from the University of Utah, is creating great Interest. Wilson was rated as one of the all time greats on the Washington grid Iron, with Savlch little known out side his own community la Utah until his great work brought him to the attention of the all-American board. The age-old argument be tween the big and little schools for honors is expected to be settled In small part. Bob Kenaston, mad marine from Oold Hill, In a letter to Promoter Mack Lillard, stated that he had something new to show Medford i wrestling fans In the way of speed and ' aggressiveness. Reports filter ing Into the city from California papers Indicate that Kenaston now relies strongly on a flying drop-kick I attack, and that he has added sev eral more spectacular holds. 4 HOWTHEV sum By the Associated Press, Coast.
