MEDFOTCn MAIL TRIBUNE. fEDFORD. OREGON, TUESDAY, NOVErBER 17, 1936. Tigers Hopeful of Brightening Faded Glory In Salem Grid Crusade PAGE FOUR REVAMPED SQUAD OFF WEDNESDAY FOR SEMI-FINAL Bowerman Forced by In juries to Switch Talent Scrimmage at Capital , to Be Staged Under Lights Tht northbound Bhaata tomorrow morning will carry 31 young Medford high school football player who will have but one thoueht In their mlnda to defeat the Salem high school Vikings at Salem Thuraday night, and thua recoup aoma of the glory that went glimmering when Inlurlea, tor fclturea and lnellglbllltlea cut Into rlbbona what was apparently to be one of Medford'a beat yeara on the gridiron. The team haa been entirely re vamped from the aquad that went down to i 94 defeat at the hands of Klamath Falla' Inspired Pelicans two weeka ago, and will even preaent new array of faoea from the aquad which came back fighting only to end In a draw with a great Ashland team. Stevens, who atarted the year aa a third-team center, haa worked up to first string status and, will start the Salem game at the pivot poat. Coach Bill Bowerman aald today: "Btevena Is not the center that Stocks was, bue he'a a lot better center than Btevena ever waa before." Stocks, regular Medford snapper back, haa been out of the last two gsxnea with broken oollar-bone. Offord, who worked the center spot against Ashland, haa been moved back to his original tackle berth, and Wil son, first string end who waa demoted to the third atrlng before the Ash land game, haa earned a starting posi tion. Maruyama, little Nipponese backfleld flash who filled Wilson's spot at the wing, will go back lo the Mocking, or quarterback, position agalnet the Vlklnga. Bowman, aophomore halfback who, except for penchant for fumbling, waa the backfleld atar of the Ash land game, but who haa been out of drill with a, bruised back, will make the trip and may start the game. Lewis, halfback star who haa been plagued with lnjurlea all year, la In better condition than waa at first hellevrd, and despite the feet that hie loft hnnd la In a cast, will prob ably see action, lewis tore ankle ligaments In the opening game of the season against Eureka, returned brief ly against Klamath Palls, only to have the ankle go out again, and then broke a bone In hla hand In scrimmage last week. When In con dition, he Is considered one of the most deoeptlve runners ever to per form for Medford. An experiment which pulled Baker from hla regular guard poat Into the backfleld, haa apparently bocn adopt ed as a renular policy, and the little blocking and tackling stsr will prob ably start the Salem game at quar terback. Those making the trip tomorrow will Include Stevens, Henry, Grow. Todd. Prentice, nlalr, Santo. Enrhart. Otlord, Brl, Bayllsa. Wilson. Wood cock, Montellll, Rlchsrdson. Baker. Maruyama. Campbell. Bowman. Lewis. Morris. Ettlnger. Hill and Sakralda, aa well ae Coaches Bowerman, Ftnrh and Klrtley. Another utility player may be Included In the traveling ros ter. Bowennsn anld. The squad will arrive In Salem to morrow evening, take a work-out un der the Hghta tomorrow night, and leave shortly after the game lor home, arriving here Friday morning. OORVAUJU. Ore.. Not. 18.

Tomorrow morning the Medford Tlgera entrain here for Salem where. Thursday night, they meet the Salem Vlklnga for the Inst but one football game on their schedule for the year. It seems strange, but the Tigers will be entering the game as underdogs, an unusual situation for Medford team. Don't sell Medford short. It's true that they have an entirely new team from the one that plied up early season avalanches over bU opponents, was hit by Injuries Juat before the Klamath Falls game, and was then revamped entirely for the Ashland encounter. The suspicion that the Tlgera were going to be a tough handful for Salem came Just after that ehnkeup was announced. The team didn't take to It too well at first. But after a few practice drills they started to click, then gained momen tum, and by the time they met Ash land they were rapidly hitting a mid season stride. True, they got only a tie with AMU nd and were lucky to get that, but Uie point is that In the emaciated condition they had been in a week earlier, A.Miliuid would have dumped them rather easily. Now we venture to predict victory over Salem, and a convincing victory at that. The odds are sainst it, but we expect to Invest a little on those odds and recoup some of the Klamath losses we Incurred.

And hadn't she. herself, stopped on the way down the moun tain and offered to play But let The Mall Tribune Shadow, who snoop around hunters dicing out tales of hunting misadventure, tell it.. According to Shadow, who claims the yarn cost four big beers and half a pack of Unhlrs. a group of Medford men went devr hunting in Lake county during the season Just past. In less than two day In cimpone member of the party sixd out like a sore thumb among hta mediocre companions slifivrd everv morning slept In a niRht-s,hirt, wore a frou f nmlng ratnoost in the wood, and turned out flapjacks that would nvike Aunt Jemima pale with envy and was promptly dubbed "Primpte" hy a couple of lady nlmrods In an adjoin-; lng camp.

To solve the problem "Prlmple" found himself a tree a whopping big one where he could stand and keep one eye skinned for any unwary buck that came hla way and the other fastened firmly on his bed and board. After a long vigil under the tre?, Mr. Prlmple leaned his tlfle against Its trunk and fell to admiring .the scenery. Hearing a slight scraping noise behind his tree, he stepped around the trunk to see what was creating the disturbance and looked a large doe squarely In the eye. Madame Venison went straight up In the air and came down with a loud snort, showering Prlmple with what would have been tobacco Juice, if deer chewed tobacco. Playful or frightened, the doe leaped again and again, making no yardage save straight up and down. Not so, Prlmple. He whirled around the tree and with his raincoat standing out stiffly behind, took off like the news writers said Jesse Owens took off In the 100 meter at Berlin, when Jesse was the fastest human. Oh, yes. The tree was eventually relocated and Prlmple rifle retrieved.

FOR LUCK ri: M ' 'I J,MjH1 Buzz Brown, northwest feather weight boxing champion, knocked out Jack Ray of Dnllas, Texas. In the fourth round of their scheduled 10 round main event battle nt the Arm ory last night, after Roy had pressed him hnrd during the early rounds. Alter the bell that ended the first round the two fighters flew at each other's throat and slammed and slugged with an enthusiasm complete ly out of atep with the opinions of their seconds and Referee Ray Fria ble. Tex Saldkeld, Brown's manager, leaped Into the ring to help stop the Impromptu fighting, but FrUble al ready had the argument stopped. All through the second round the Portland flash abandoned the superb boxing skill that has mnrked his rise to the top, and decided to slug It out with his heavier opponent. He repeated tho performance In the first part of the third, despite excited howls from Salkold that he "quit iignung and box this guy." Again, after the third round had ended, tho two stood slugging near tbe ropes. Frlsble managed to un tangle them, knocking Brown down in doing so, and again Salkeld climb ed Into the ring, this time to shake his fist under Frlsble's nose. The end cainn onrly In the fourth round. Battling started with a flurry, with Ray's early round stamina fast leaving. Brown landed a hard right to the hend, which sent his opponent to the canvas for a no-count knock down, and when Ray got back to his feet Brown swarmed over him wflh lefts and rights to the body and hesd, driving him into a corner where a rapid tattoo to the head put him away for the count. Jack Neely, 148, Kcrby, and Sonny Benders, 158, Klamath Falls, went to a six-round draw. Neely. with whis tling hooks to tho solar-plexus, had an easy advnntage in the first round but Enders solved the foeman's crouching attack in the second and took that round, the third and fourth on points. In the firth round Neely came back strong, knocked Enders down with a right to the head near the end of the round, and earned n j draw In the last frame when he again found Enders' body with right and t left hooks. Red Melhorn. 150. Klamath Falls, took n six-round decision from Bucky O'Brien of O'Brien. Ore., In the first six-rounder of the evening, knocking the Irishman down twice In the last round. The bell saved O'Brien from what looked like a knockout, but wss himself so exhausted ho had to be helped to his dressing-room. The four-round opener was one of the best bouts on the bill with Gil bert Jonas of Dairy defeating Bud Waller of Klamath Falls by close decision.

Y.. and a 37-year old driving range pro, Leo Walper of Betheeda, Mo. were among the half dozen pace-setters of qualifying play. ( Star Apprehensive Down the line, some of them ap prehensive after flirting dangerously with the 80 mark. In yesterday's open ing fire, were little Paul Runyan., flashy Walter Hagcn and burly Mortle Dutra among others. Oerlak, a shy youngster of 38 who combines a gieens-keoplng Job with his professional tasks, turned in the biggest surprise of the first day by shooting a sub-par 71 over the cold windswept No. 3 layout here. Yockey, a nllm chap playing in his first POA tournament, and Walper. who oiwrotes a driving rango on the outskirts of Washington, D n., checked in with 73's to Join a pair of favored aces, the national open champion.
