OARDEN CITY, N. T.. Sept. 15.. (AP) As the second end last de tachment of big guru- wheeled Into action tn the second round of the TJ. S. amateur golf championship to day, the topic on all tongues was the definitely dangerous threat of Scot land's Hector Thomson. By nightfall the original field of S10 will no re duced to 04. Th British amateur champion, who bears a striking resemblance to Omaha's Johnny Goodman except for the fact Thomson hns contrastingly block hair, made a deep impression am American critics as he carved out machlno like 7 to 6 victory over John Roberts of Columbus, Ohio, yesterday. They concede him a good nrinnce of becoming the first Briton to win the American title . since Bsrold Hilton's triumph 25 years ago. Has Smooth Swing "He has a typical American swing compact," said the professionals, Charley Laccy and Jimmy Hlncs. "There's no lork to It and he's strong and smooth. After looking at a lot of plnyors here his putting touch 1 something to be envied. "He's (rreat em going away, slop ing approaches. Of course, anything oan happen In an 18-hole match, but right now Thomson looks as Rood as any of the Amorlcan favor ites." ocodman, Albert (Scotty) Camp bell of Seattle and Reynolds Smith of Dallas, the American favorites, all survived the opening test although Oampbell gave his adherents some concern by trailing at various stages before hitting his winning stride. Oampbell and Smith were scheduled tor "breathes" today, but Goodman traa matched against the erstwhile siege gun and former tltlo-holdor, Jesse Oullford of Boston.

The first round failed to produce anything approximating an upset but the terrifying traps and narrow fairways of the par 73 Oarden City course made many faces crimson. Only 38 players out of 106 broko 40 on the first nine, whereas par for the first nine was either equaled or broken by six shot makers, Smith leading the small group with an out going 35 two under.

I L iiLjf tmmtfm It It's any consolation to the deer of southern Oregon, thoy have a bet ter chance of being shot with now gun this year than at any time since the 1030 season, for Medford sporting goods housos report a phenomonal rise In the sale of new muskets. It was getting so that a deer family that turned up with one member missing, and It was discovered that member had been shot with a cannou newer than a '20 model, the deer family became unbearably up-nosey about the whole thing. The other deer families were getting tired ol this, we hoar, but uoed not frot any longer. The deer season opens fiumlii). Bunduy we ore going to stay as far away from deer country as we cat get, for It Is on opening day that men take on the look of a buck, their enrs grow, and that cowlick Hint we've been trying to comb nut for the last 30 years begins In look as much like horns to other hunters ns It aiwuya nas to us, Al Hmllli, who Intends facing the first (lay bnrrage de spite the fact that lie's an ex perlnccd hunter, Is letting his hoard grow so He'll look a little less like a man and have some sort of protection, at least. In order to help him out a little, we point out to the populace that the season Is alwuys closed on heaver In Jackson county. Among tho new guns that are be ing sold, the .30 callbro combina tions have been going best, particu larly In the carbine models. The .300 calibre has largely supplanted the .360-3000 In the affection of hunters, tho heavlor bullet being better adapt ed to brush shooting In the eye of thoso not intending to hie them selves to eastern Oregon. Strangely onough, a gun that has a higher velocity and a llghtor bullet than the 360-3000 Is making history In other parts of the country and !s oxcltlng much comment hero. It is tlie new 330 Swift. With a muzzle velocity of 4600 feet a second It has only a 48 grain bullotl To date none of the guns have made an appearance horo, but tho cartridges are on sale at several sporting gooda houses, The most popular new gun has beon the .348, introduced last year. Sporting goods stores report they are cleaned out of the new model, with Lamport's claiming the only one left on the coast. They don't expect to keep it long, and believe they could Bell another dozen of them bcrore the season opens It they could got orders filled.

Will Wilson and Frank Hector, In the lllntt lake country over the week-end, re port seeing flocks of brant with hundreds of birds In each flnrk, heading south. Aside from Ihe fact that Is supposed to Indicate nn early winter, It means more birds than for several years, they say. The parking problem at the new senior high school athletic field Is solved. In fact, there haa been no problem at all, although many have been worried about It. supt. s. n. Hedrlck tells us that there la a 10- foot offset around the entire field where parking will be permitted. No Cars Will Be Allowed On the Leveled Field Enclosed By Fence.

Hubka took the first fall In 18 minutes after clamp ing his legs around Chick in a leg seizors that the cowpuncher tried In vain to shake off for six solid min utes. Chick finally broke the hold with a body slam, only to have Hubka come back with back somersault fly ing mares, two sonnenborgs, a figure four scissors and a press to take the tumble. In the second frame Hubka carried the offense' again, crippling Chick's shoulder with a short-arm scissors. It wns from thts position that Chick hoisted the NebrHkan for the last spin. Hubka could not return, and did not regnln consciousness for ten minutes after the struggle was over. In the middle event, Les Wolfe, who has won repeated victories with his hook scissors, saw that weapon turn to clay as Prince Mlbalakls ground his knees In his famous dra gon scissors. Twice Wolfe dragged himself outside the ropes to escape the torturing grip the wily Arab was using to cripple his legs. Once, after crawling to the ropes, he took the count and then flopped to the mat again for a second advantage after the two had traded falls earlier in the match. With his legs crippled under him, Wolfe resorted to a stunt he has never before used In Medford he swung throe haymakers nt the Ara bian, knocking him down as Mlhala kls unsuspectingly walked Into them. Wolfe took the fall with a body press and left the ring amid the boos of the big crowd. Wolfe had taken the first fall with a figure-four rolling scissors and Mlhalakls took the next with a dragon scissors. Today Wolfe denied that he hit the Arab with his fist, claiming he used his elbow. He said that he crawled out of the ropes and used the elbow slams because "I'm not going to let any Arab lick mo. I'll lick him 12 more times if anyone cares to match us again." Mlhalakls. not commenting on the slam to the chin, said today that he would like to meot Wolfe again, "now that I know that gentleman stuff he's been hiding behind la all act ing." Mlhalakls said that he was hlmBclf convinced that ha had easily out-wrestled tho lean Texan. The opening Btrugglo saw George Craig, tho Tulsa blacksmith, experi encing little trouble In downing Pat O'Brien with four anvil flips. There was no fall in the opening round after O'Brien had become angered when Craig slipped out of a head lock. Ho spit on hla hands and wal loped Craig, but got knocked down In retaliation. Tho two shook hands at the bell. After tho blacksmith's four anvil flips In the next round, the Irishman was too woozy to con tinue, and Referee Ray Prlsble stop ped the match.

Phone 620 i SHOW UP TO HELP Three more lettermen reported for duty on the Senior high school foot bajl team last night, swelling the squad to 3t, still snort of the totsl at the ssme time last -year. The let termen were Sakralda and Bsyllss. backs, and OJford. tarkle. Coach Bowermsn rsn the men through stiff signal drill with dummy scrimmage, and announced that he would have some real scrlmmsge before the end of the week. The line, which Bowermsn admits Is the weak link In the team chain, Is shaping up better than first ex pected, but is still too weak to si low for much optimism, the coach said Last night's drill found Stocks at center, Blair end Ba)r.er at guards, Santo and Earhart ' at tackles and Wilson and Root at ends. Blair was shifted to the guard post from his old position at tackle, and shows promise at the new assignment. He has plckc! up speed during Ihe sum mer. End spots are still shaky, with nei ther Wilson nor Root having ever played the position before. There la a possibility that some of the oock- fleld material will be shifted to wing duty. With the lineup Just given only three men would be playing In a fa miliar position Stocks, Santo and Baker. There Is still some talk of moving Santo to end and Baktr to center, a radical move which would leave an absolutely inexperienced ine but a potentially strong combination. Bsckfleld prospects are rosier. One comblnstlon saw Maniyama at quar ter, Ettlnger at riht half and Lewis at left half, and Hill at tulloack. That lineup can be bolstered by a horde of good men, Including Bsy llss, Sakralda, Olsen, Morrlss, Ullln- sky, Bowmsn and neveial others. Olsen, a transfer from Nebraska, hss been doing some nice punting In prsctlce, getting his kicks awa for a 40 yard average. Another transfer who looks good Is Morrlss. who comes to Medford from Roseburg, where he played tackle last yesr. He weighs about 170, Is f&st, and may work into a halfback spot.
