LOOKS DANGEROUS
Hector Thomson Drops John
Roberts 7-6 Goodman,
Campbell And Reynolds
Smith Survive First Test.
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.
Others Have Following
Willie most experienced eyes were
focused on the Thomson-Goodman-Campbell-Smlth
quartet, there was
obt than casual lntereat In the
wining Into action of ex-champlons
Francla Oulmct of Boston. George
Dunlap, Jr., of New York and C. Ross
Bomervlllo of Canada. Prank Btrafadl,
Brooklyn's 1036 public links king,
Willie Turnesa and Dr. William
Twcddell of England, who lost to
Lawaon Ltttlo in the 1036 British
amateur final, also drew first round
byes.
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.

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

spite the fact that lie's an ex

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

Before the blggeat crowd of the year
Dude Chick, airplane spinning cow-
puncher, downed Joe Hubka of Ne
braska, at the Armory last night, In
one of the hardest won victories he
has turned In here. 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.

Three more lettermen reported for

bajl team last night, swelling the
squad to 3t, still snort of the totsl

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.
