O., NOT. 18. (fl) The professional golfers' annual hit parado marched on today but tho big guy who ran tho show for many year was missing. Tho "Halg" tTamped along with the gallerltcs. rat and fortylih, out of practice, but Just as debonair and carefree as ever. Walter Hnen found the going too tough. The five-time victor, who has regarded the PGA as hla pet American ship, could no no better than an SO In his last round for ISO that loft him Just a stroke outside the group qualifying for the salaried ranks' match ploy competition to day. Out IIT Missed Putt ' ' A single mlased putt, such as the short one that rimmed the cup op the slxu-enth, would have glvon Wal tcr another chance. Famous for his rallies, he tried hard down the stretch. Hngcn played boldly, but for. tune frowned on him.- A yoar ago he won the medal at Oklahoma City. Today he was on the outside looking In, crowded out by a bunch of youngsters and unknowns. Hagen has given more attention to shooting ducks than birdies In re cent weeks. He's been banging away Irom a duck blind at his catr.p in Michigan, eating bountiful helpings and putting on avoirdupois, He tips the scales at 211, thirty or forty pounds overweight, and looks Hko a burly wrestler. Too Hlnny "My hips wouldn't pivot," he ex plained, with a wry amiie. The big field of 64 players started out early today but at- sunset only 16 will aurvlvo after tho two 18-hole elimination rounds. Fay Coleman, the Culver City, Col,, youngster who won the medal round laurels Hagen copped last year, tack led southpaw socker, Den Rlchter of St. Louis, In his first 18-hole match today.

Because of the local Interest lh the Medford -Salem high sbbool football game to be played In the capital elty Thursday night, the Mall Tribune has arranged for a wire report on the progress of the game by quarters and the editorial department will remain open until U p. m. Thursday to answer tele phone Inquiries. With about 600 yelling students at the station to give fhem a royal send-off, the Med ford high school football squad left on this morning's Shasta for Salem, where tomorrow night they will meet the strong Salem Vikings In the next to last game of the season for the locals. At the Southern Paclflo station this morning the entire student body of the school, excused from first period classes, gathered around the oar which Is carrying the Tigers north, and wit hthe school cheer leaders enthroned on baggage trucks went through most of the. repertolr of school's yells and songs. The band did not participate. The Salem game Is considered one of the most important of the year, In the light of disastrous luck re verses which forced the Tigers to for feit most of the games won, and which saw four of tho first trlng men go to the sidelines with Injuries after the Or ants pass game. If the Tigers are to recoup their losses and make the season and unqualified success, they will have to defeat Sa lem, end then Eugene,. The Black Tornado will be entering the game as underdogs, with not much chance given them of defeating Salem by up state prognostics tors. With a completely revamped team, almost entirely remodeled In the past three weeks, the Tiger offense is an unknown quality. Before leaving Coach Bo worm an said that If hJs team clicks they will probably win, and If It doesn't they will undoubt edly take a beating, but ha added that the squad Is In the beet mental condition of the year. If they ere defeated, he said, It will be because determination was not enough, and lack of time tor rebuilding the shat tered Tiger drive will be the only cause. Several Med ford fans accompanied the team on the train, and many more Intend to drive north tomorrow morning In time to see the game Thursday night. ENDERS IN FIFTH KLAMATH FALLS, Nov. 18. if?)

Grants .Pass, with a rusty, battered southern Oregon football conference crown resting on the respective leads of their 1936 football team, Is be ginning to experience the possibly Jealous comments of other towns whose teams have not emerged on top. Last year, when Medford claim ed the conference lead by virtue of a last minute touchdown which gave the Tigers a win over the Klamath Palls Pelicans, this department got in a lot of verbal bickering with a Klamath sports scribe who Intimated that this department was. Just one step short of senile decay. That sports writer employed the deadly device against us of reprint ing every slam we took at the Peli cans, without taking the trouble to reprint the nice ' ones, If any, that we might have muttered. This year a new man Is holding down the sports desk over the mountain, and he took over where his predecessor left off, getting several of our more choice Inanities Into black and white In his sheet. Now Grants Pass, In a sports col umn labeled "Calling 'em Out' Is emitting plaintive walls at Klamath Palls comments. Says the Climate City scribe: ". . . Then Klamath Falls, winning 3-0 over the wrecked Tiger squad which had been forced to undergo a complete revamping to make up for the loss of Olson end casualties, felt like crowing and tried to throw water on the Caveman crown. A Klamath writer, probably feeling the surge of his early 'teens, chirruped that the Cavemen claimed Its championship by holding that the first game with Ashland, which the Cavemen t won 6-0, was the confer ence tut, "That writer knows, as does every ether fan In southern Oregon, that the first game played between two conference schools Is the conference counter." That Grants Pass claim that, the first game Is the one that counts Is, of eourne, well found ed. Out the Klamath scribe was only human In Jumping on the Ashland-Grants Pass sltunMon. The Cavemen won the first game 8-0, while losing the next l'J-6. Klamath defeated Medford 8-0, while Medford defeated Grants Puss 31-7 In a gamo Inter forfeit ed. What more natural than to try to get In a word for his Klnmath team, which would bn?e taken the conference 1 had the Ashland victory over Grants Pass counted. The situation In the southern Ore gon conference Is now settled, with the Cavemen on top. Not so the state picture. Milton Freewater's McLaughlin high, that perennial challenger from eastern Oregon now vants to meet "any undefoated and untied team In the state for the j championship, on any date." Mac ! high has not been scored upon this year, while tangling with such for midable opposition as Union, Baker, Hermlston, Athena and Enterprise. Thoy also defeated Pendleton and wore tied by Walla Walla. We've heard of Walla Walla and Pendleton, even been there couple of times. And we've heard rumors of a place called Baker. But we'd hate to claim a state title on the strength of having bowled over such places as Union, Hermlston, Athena and Enterprise. Mllton-Freewater must have good press agent tip there In those rolling wheat hills. As far back as we can remember they have been loudly chanting their own praises, and year-Ui and year-out claiming the state title. Once they yelled so loudly and so long that Medford and Prink Cnlllson finally accepted the challenge. The game was plard HELP YOU YOUTH one of them. to lend us your laundry Laundry ll u In Mliton, with the locals defeat ing Merle Hufford 44-0... Hufford was about all they had, and de spite the fact he was plenty good, he couldn't win a tough ball game by himself, Mac-lil shut up for awhile, but not long. Now they're back In the swim again. It took a round thumbing by Medford to quiet The Dalles In the same sort of a set-up In 1038. DOFF MOLESKINS The Grants Pass high school foot' ball machine, victors in as mad a scramble as the southern Oregon con Terence has seen In years, has dis banded for another year, and many of the moleskin heroes have aban doned their pads and cleated shoes in favor of the lighter panoply of Basketball warfare. The Caveman team, which gained the conference title after Medford hM forfeited a 31-7 victory over them, will lose 13 lettermen by graduation this year, cutting damaging Inroads Into the possibility for a champion ship squadron next year. The twelve who will snatch their sheephldes at the end of the school year are Bob Prltchett, Gayle Ander son, Art Wlnetrout, Claude GlUett, Prank Ingram, Don Pruess, Jack Ber trand, Gordon McCollifm, Kerr Prultt, LeBter Tolcr, Chester Toler and Ernie Trimble. 4 E MILTON-FREE WATER, Nov. 18.
