PAGE THIRTEEN Portland Invites Hood River High For Mythical Title Encounter NrEBFOTfD MATT, TT? TRUNK MET )FOTCD, OREGON, FRTTYVY. N'OVEMER 13, 193R. OTHER CLAIMANTS' DISCUSS CONTESTS TO CLEAR MUDDLE MiltorrFreewater and Hood River May Play at Hood River Next Friday Eu u gene Seeks Consideration PORTLAND, Or.. Ko. 18. (AP) The Portland High School Athletic association, at lta meeting here today, Tcted to Invite Hood River high acbool'a grid team to play Jefferson high of Portland At the annual grid game here Thanksgiving day. Tho Portland association disclaimed any Intention of viewing the game at having state ch&tnplonshlp status emoa Jefferson already has been tied. In former years, the game haa been legardcd aa deciding the mythical Btate title. The announcement came on the heels of advices that officials of two other unbeaten teams unbeaten in Oregon competition Eugene and Mllton-Freewatar were discussing the possibility of competing for the mythical tltla. At Pendleton, reports indicated plans already were underway for a game at Milton Friday between Hood niver and Mllton-Freewnter, with the winner to be eliglblle to oomptte In Portland. Eugene Seeks Chance At the same time, Eugene officials pointed out that the University Olty team was one of the major unbeaten, untied elevens In the state and could not be eliminated from championship consideration despite the fact the team already had a game scheduled with Medford Thanksgiving day. At Medford, Coach BUI Bowerman aid his team was willing to cancel or postpone the Medford-Bugene came in order to give Eugene an op portunity to play in Portland's turkey day classic In addition to Hood River, Eugene end Mllton-Freewatar (which haa a tie only in an interstate game with Walla Walla), other major claimants to top ranking In Oregon tnclude Oregon City and West Linn. Thla morning word was received tiere to tne effect that Hood River and MacLoughlin high of Mi' ton -Jlee water were contemplating a play off between the two eohools for the light to meet the Portland prep champs, on the assumption that Eugene, undefeated and untied and with a record as Impressive aa either Rood River's or Mac high's, was out of the picture because of a sched uled game with Medford on Thanks giving. Medford Willing Coach Fritz Kramer of Eugene said: They can't eliminate us from cham pionship consideration simply be cause we happen to have a date for a game on Thanksgiving day. If an Invitation to play a Portland team wore forthcoming, we would contact Medford officials to see if they would be willing to change our date, if they agreed, we would be open to go to Portland to meet their representa tive for the stato crown." Coach Bowerman of Medford said tit at he would gladly step add to allow the Eugene squad a chance at the title, but that the cancellation or postponement would come only upon the agreement that It not Inter fere with the contract calling for a Medford -Eugene game here next year. The action of the Portland high school athletic association was view ed here today aa typical of actions by that body. Last year, because a suggestion was made to attempt to play off the state championship without regard to the Portland win ners, Portland promptly signed for a game with a Spokane team. Since Eugene is out of the running u far as a Portland game la con cerned, the local team will go ahead for Thanksgiving plans against Eugene aa scheduled.

This 1 by way of taking our hats off to Coaches Bowerman, Klrtley and Finch for the remarkable Joo thev did in forming an entire new football team In the 10 days between the Klamath Falls and the Ashland games. For that's what they did. Just as a review, here's what tha set-up was: Of ford, who played cen ter, had never before ptayod the spot and had been a tackle. Blair, who took Of ford 'a tackle spot, bad been playing guard as well as tackle Baker, who alternated at quarter-, bark, played guard all year until the Klamath game, when he played cen ter, Mamyama and Bayliss, at end, were playing in the line for the first time In their lives, having been in the back field before. Bowman, who played left half, was storting bis first game, although he had substituted in other gamea. Morris, who playe'l right half, has been playing guard since early In the season. And still that hybrid team played real football all afternoon, and at times flashed power ami upeed that would bare equalled the team as It wot on the day of the Grants Pass came, before Stocks, Root and Olson were lost The statistics on the game give Medford the edge on yardage. 174 to 144, though Ashland gets the edge on first downs, 10 to 7. But here's something the statistics dont show Medford was In scoring position four times and scored but once, and Ash land was In scoring position four times and scored but once On the three times that Ashland missed it was because of tbe Medford defense. but on the three tunea that Medford missed it waa Medford errors that prevented the score and not Ashland's defense This la not to belittle Ashland. They played a great game of foot ball and deserved all they got. If not more. Bat If Wilson and Baker had beeu able to bang onto tbe two passes In their arms over tbe end zone, that would have been two Medford scores.

Dow man did the same thing, on a run to the 24-yurd line from mldfleld. Bad the two backs had the experi ence, they would probably have scored on both those runs. There Is no discredit to them for not doing so there la a great deal of credit dut them for having gone that far. But we predict (we should stop predict ing, particularly on Friday tbe 13th) that before the Salem game next Thursday those rough spots will be gone, the fumbling will be forgotten, and the team almost as good as ever. And those new backs, who sprang Into the limelight on the last game, will be roady to take their places as the brilliant ball carriers that, soma hov.

We Just got e letter from Fran We Peek, tha gentleman with a face like a battleffround but a heart like a baby's, lie la suffering from tho scourpo of the wrestling profession trachoma, a dreaded disease that strikes at the ayes and sometimes leaves a man blind. He's bad It for several months, and the stork cures don't seem to help him much so far. He could hardly write the letter, which waa short because his eyes wouldn't let htm work much longer.

Whether in the wrestling ring, at dinner, or In a bull -feat over a glass of the foaming. he's Interesting. His conversation is clean, with an adventuring tang that makes one want to drop whatever he's doing and start touring the world.
