PXGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL. TRIBUNE, 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 due 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 mada one impromptu Journey to the resin himself. The first round went to Moore by virtue of his one whistling clout to the Italian's proboscis, starting 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 htm In the second round Delcnntro had completely recovered and landed solar plcxls bunch that doubled Moore like a Jackknife. An uppercut tralghtened him and a Jobbing left sent him down for the first count of four. Twlco again Belcastro club bed Moore to the floor only to havo STAR STANFORD BACK STOPPED BY WASHINGTON STATE Fl FOOTBALL STADIA TO Fl Stanford, the Rose Bowl champion of the last football season, dropped Its first Pacific Coast Confer epce game of the 1936 season by a single point, 14 to 13, to the Washington State Cougars at Pullmant Wash. Here Is Jimmy Cofffs, 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 steam enough left to deliver a cooling punch. Belcastro hit Moore a hard punch to the head after the boll. 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 the count of three, wobbled to his feet, and stopped an other howling right hand. He stayed down to the count of nine when Belcastro again knocked him kick ing. He rolled onto his back and stayed down for the count. In the middle event, a wrestling match, Lee Wolfe displayed his newly acquired men tie of mcanyhood to take Jimmy Goodrich of Flint, Mich., n an exciting battle. Wolfe took the first fall with body slams in eight minutes after he had broken all of Goodrich's holds with low kicks, slugging and hair pulling In ture meanle tradition. The newcomer came back In the second 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 U'jod- rlch finished him off with sonncn bergs and a body press. At the start of the third round Wolfe attempted to carry tho water bottlo Into the ring with him but the second wrenched it nway. Cloud rich again launch M u sorlea of aon nenbertfs but the rcxan rolled out of the way on the third one and Good rich dived iut of the ring. He came back apparently ui"ogy and the Texas rowdy rushed him only to get flopped on tho cnln with a right hand punch. Wolfe ended up In a corner and Goodrich charged wildly after him. as the Texan reclined in the corner, his Arms over tht top ropes. As Goodrich rushed In W.lfe rais ed both feet and kicked htm solidly on the che.it, spinning him over onto his back here a body pnus pinned him. The bout was 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 tho opening turn ble with a hammerlock after much kicking and biting. There was no fall in the next round tut Hubka vastly amused the big crowd when he bit Burns finger heartily after the meanle had tried to stretch his mouth out of shape. Hubka took his first fall in the third round with Jolting sonnenbergs and a somersault scissors, following up the advantage 'n the mxt frame with more flying tackles and a roiling arm lock. The crowd was the largest ever to witness a boxing or wrestling match at the Armory. Standing room on the ground floor was being sold at 3:00 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the quickest sell-out since Mack Llllard has been promoting here, he said. Next Monday will see a battle-royal with six men In the ring 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 wroetle tho main event, Llllard said.

V-Intercol leglate football has booted the de presslon out of every college box of fice in the nation In what looms as the game's greatest year since the boom days of 1037-28. That, at least, Is 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 once felt they might as well crack up their huge etadla and sell them for o.d bricks because the winds would soon be blowing through emoty stands, have changed their minds. Huge crowds turning out to games, some of them warm-up contests not battles for a national or confer ence championship have convinced Major Griffith that the game is 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 53,000. Two weeks ago Duke opened Its season before a 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 17,500 down in the Hoosler hills for a game with Centre college.

On Armistice day the Tigers meet Ashland here, the Grizzlies being in the same boat with Klamath as far as 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 chance! After the Ashland struggle there is an open date that will probably be filled In the Interim, and then the Tigers Invade the Salem llr 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 Thankiglvtng 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 1926, 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 Is concentrating on that reserve line and backfleld. If they come through the champion ship looks like It s In the bag. bu boy, what a Job that gives them They made a fine start against Rose burg, but the three Medford coaches, Bowerman, Klrtley and Pinch, are plenty worried about the siege guns they'll be facing in another week, Brass Rail Engages White's Dance Band Ed White and his Brondway Inn or chestra, from Portland, will open an engagement at the Brass Rail tonight, according to an announcement by the management.

The Medford high school football team, with what practically amounts to a breather Saturday at Marshfleld, will launch the atlffest part of their schedule on tho following week when they meet the champtonshtp-bouni Grants Pass Cavemen on the turf here to settle the southern Oregon championship. Lest anyone he so foolish as to assume Grants Pass Is going to be an easy obstacle, look nt the figures: Grants Pass has one of the heaviest teams In history, combined with a determination to dump Med Tor d that amounts practically to a mania. They played listless hall agalmt Klam ath Falls for the first half of their recent gome, but In the third quarter, apparently con scious that they couldn't tangle with the locals for southern Ore gon honors If the Pelicans donn ed them, they snapped to life and handed Klamath an excellent beaUig for the remaining two quarters, winning 14-8. Coach Loren Tuttle. ridden by in juries and bad luck for tho past sev eral seasons, hss been bringing hla Cavemen along fast and he admits that he has a better chance at the southern Oregon crown than at any time since 1930, when his team edg ed Medford out, 7-fl. for the honors. That big line la charging harder everv game, and those big. fast backs are packing the mall like college star. Whether or not the Tigers get pan Grants Pass, their work Is not over. The following week they meet Klumath Falls here In what has been rightly called a grudge struggle after the Pelican squawk last year. Klamath has dropped games to The Dalles and Grants Paws, but that doesn't mean much In a Medfurd game. As usual, the Pelicans ran lose every game on their schedule but one. If they hand Medford a licking nil Is forgiven and the sea son wilt he declared the best since If that boxing match at the Armory last night was a good example of boxing, which It wasn't, give us wres tling any time. As far aa that goes, give us wrestling over any kind of boxing. , . .

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 and 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.
