PXGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL. TRTBWE, MEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1936 , : In a battle that at times bore close resemblance to a boxing match, Pete Belcastro out-flailed Gene Moore In three rounds of a sched uled 10 round glove duel at the Armory last night, knocking his en emy out In one and a half minutes of the third round. The Pacific coast Junior heavyweight wrestling champ ion, donning the mitts for a grudge battle, had Moore on the floor three times In the second round, and mads one Impromptu Journey to the resin himself. The first round went to Moore by virtue of his ono whistling clout to the Italian's proboscis, storting Bel- castro's usual nose-bleed. The blow was the only solid one of the round and seemed to daze the Italian but a hasty trip to the sidelines to re pair a broken shoe string saved him. In the second round Belcastro had completely recovered and landed solar plexls bunch that doubled Moore like a Jackknlfe. An uppercut atralghtened him and a Jabbing left sent him down for the first count of four. Twice again Belcastro club bed Moore to the floor only to have Prepare your cm n uur convenient purchAM plnn NRHlnsI hnrd tlarUnjc, liur Flrtilnnt llatlrrr on low weekly pnymrnti.

Stanford, tho Rose Gowl champion of the last football leaaon, dropped its first Pacific Coast Confer epce Qame of the 1936 season by a single point, 14 to 13, to the Washington State Cougars at Pullman, Wash. Here Is Jimmy Coffis, Stanford's left half, off on a short gain, but Hoptowlt (45) and Fletcher of the Cougars brought him down.

With Belcastro apparently groggy Moore showered blows to his head but hadn't s ten in enough left to deliver a cooling punch. Belcastro hit Moore a hard punch to tho head after the bell. At the start of the third round Belcastro half ran out of his corner and swarmed over his lighter oppon ent, knocking him down again. Moore stayed down to tho count of three, wobbled to his feet, and stopped an other howling right band. He stayed down to the count of nine when Belcastro again knocked him kick-1 lng. He rolled onto his back and stayed down for the count. In the middle event, a wrestling match, Les Wolfe displayed his newly acquired mantle of meanyhood to take Jimmy Goodrich of Flint, Mich., In an exciting battle. Wolfe took the first fall with body slnma In eight minutes after he had broken all of Goodrich's holds with low kicks, slugging and hair pulling In ture meiinlo tradition. The newcomer came back In the sscond round and sent Wolfe spin ning over his head for back body drops twice, rooting between Wolfe's legs from a head scissors. The falls rendered the Texan woory and Good rich finished him off with aonnen bergs and a body press. At the start of the third round Wolfe ntlomptact to carry tho water bottle Into the ring with him but the second wronched It away. Good rich again launchM n series of son nonbergs but the rexon rolled out of the way on the third one and Good rich dived out of tho ring. He camo back apparently uroggy and the Texas rowdy rushed him only to got flogged on tho onln with a right hand punch. Wolfe ended up In n corner and Goodrich changed wildly after him, as the Texan lvcllned In the corner, his arms over the top ropes. As Ooodrlch rushed In W.Jlfe rais ed both feet and kicked him solidly on the chest, spinning him over onto his back hero a body pifw pinned him. The bout wns an exceptionally wild one. In the opener Joe Huhka lived up to his reputation as a gorilla tamer when he eliminated Billy Burns of Atlanta two out of three falls In four rounds. Burns took the opening turn bio with a hommerlock after much kicking and biting. There was no fall In tho next round ut Hubka vastly amused tho big crowd when he bit Burns' finger heartily after the meanle had 'Tied to stretch his mouth out of shape. Hubka took his first fall In the third round with Jolting son nen bergs and a somersault scissors, following up the advantage .'n the nt-xt frame with more flying Ucklcs and a rolling arm lock. The crowd was the largest ever to witness a boxing or wrestling match at tho Armory. Standing room on the ground floor waB being sold at 3:00 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the quickest sell-out since Mack LI Hard has been promoting here, he said. Next Monday will see a bnt tie -royal with six men In the rlua at one time. The first two eliminated (either pinned for tho count or thrown from the ring) will return later to wrestle the opener. Tho second two out will wrestle the middle event, and the surviving pair will wrestle tho main event, Llllard enld.

(IPy Intercol. legists football has booted the de pression out of every college box of flee In the nation In what looms as the game's greatest year since the boom days of 1927-28. That, at least, la the 'conclusion of Major John L. Griffith, president of the National Collegiate Athletic association and commissioner of ath letics In the western conference, after a nationwide sudvey. The directors of athletics, who onco felt they might u well crack up their huge atadla and sell them for o.d bricks because the winds would soon be blowing through empty stands, have changed their minds. Huge crowdA turning out to games. some of them warm-up contests not battlea for a national or confer ence championship have convinced Major Griffith that the game la def initely on the upgrade. Last Saturday, Ohio state's battle with Pittsburgh drew 71,000. Min nesota played Nebraska with the turnstiles clicking to 63.000. Two weeks ago Duke opened Its season before & record crowd of 26.000 against Colgate, and the aame day Washington and Minnesota at Seattle turned them away after admitting a capacity crowd of 40.000. On the same day Indiana drew 17,600 down In the Hoosler hills for a game with Centre college. SPORTSMEN! Mf?" SETS . JUNEAU, Alaska, Oct. 13.

On Arml5t.ee day the Tigers meet Ashland here, the Grizzlies being m the same boat with Klamath as far aa a Med ford win Is concerned. They can get whitewashed all season and then slip the sleeper to Medford and the year Is a howling success. And don't think they won't howl If they get the chancel After the Ashland struggle there is an open date that will probably be filled In the Interim, and then the Tigers lnvtvae the Salem lair for the first time In history. Salem has been a frequent Medford visitor but no local team has ever played them on their own field. On Thanklvlng the locals meet Eugene high at Eu gene In the second game in history for a Medford team at Eugene. If the old memory isn't too badly be fogged, the Tigers squelched Eugene, 19-0, In 1928, the year that Grant high of Portland was dumped, 24-6, the year the Tigers won the state championship. Can the Black Tornado get by that heart-breaking schedule? They can, we believe, but it will have to be by grace of the second team. No one team on earth could depend on 11 men and get by such a season, which is why Bowerman la concentrating on that reserve line and backfleld If they come through the champion ship looks like it's In the bag, but boy, what a Job that gives them They made a fine start against Rose' burg, but the three Medford coaches, Bowerman, Kirtiey and Pinch, are plenty worried about the siege guns they'll be facing In another week. The Medford high school football team, with what practically amount to a breather Saturday at Marsh field, will launch the stiff est part of their schedule on tho following week when they meet the champlonshlp-bouni Grants Pass Cavemen on the turf here to settle the southern Oregon championship. Lest anyone he so foolish as to assume Grant Pass Is doing to be an easy obstacle, look at the figures: Grants Pass han one of the heaviest teams In history, combined with a determination to (hi in p INI ml ford that amounts practically to a mania. They P laved listless ball ORAliiPt Klam ath Fa Hi for the first half of their recent game, but In the third quarter, apparently con scious that they couldn't tangle with the locals for southern Ore gon honors If the Pelicans down ed them, they snapped to life and handed Klamath an excellent beating for the remaining two quarters, winning 14-fl. Coach Loren Tuttle. ridden by in juries and bad luck for tho past sev eral seasons, has been bringing his Cavemen along fast and he admits that he has a better chance at the southern Oregon crown than at any time since 1030, when hta team edg ed Medford out, 7-o for the honors. That big line is charging hsrder every game, and those big, fast backs are packing the mall like college stars. Whether or not the Tigers get past Grants Pass, their work l not over. The following week they meet Klamath Falls here In what has heen rightly called a grudge struggle after the Pelican squawk last year. Klnmath has dropped games to The Dalles and Grants Pa, but that doesn't mean much In a Medfnrd game. As usual, the Pelicans ran lose every game on their schedule hut one. If they hand Medford a licking all Is forgiven and the sea- son n 111 he declared the best since I U that boxing match at the Armory last night was a good example of boxing, which It wasn't, give us wres tling any time.

( AP) Rumored hard-feeling between America's two famous Helens since the memorable 1935 Wimbledon tour nament appeared Ill-founded today as Mrs. Helen Wills Moody's triumph over Helen Hull Jacobs in mixed doubles, was written into the books. The great feminine rivals suppos edly have been at swords points since Mrs, Moody won the Wimbledon crown In a heart-breaking match in which Miss Jacobs lost the vital point, set and match. At the tourna ment here, however, the two greeted each other warmly, clasped hands and chatted as news cameras clicked. It was Miss Jacobs chance to vin dicate her Wimbledon loss, but she snd Henry Culley of Santa Barbara succumbed to the superior play of Mrs. Moody and red-haired Don Budge, who also won the men's sing les and men's doubles titles in the 47th Pacific coast championships.
