OREGON7-, MONDAY, MAY 10, 1937, Belcastro Due to Avenge Britt's Arm Snapper in Tonights Grapple BAN ON ARM HOLD; EVENS ODDS WITH F Estes and Cowboy McEwan Tangle in Middle Match Sailor Trout and La goski in Opening Bout Pet Belcastro. th Mad Italian from Weed. Calif., get another crack at former Junior Heavyweight Cham pion of the World Alvln Brltt to night In th featured bout or pro moter Mack Llllard'a weekly grunt and grimace program, and the wise guya up and down th main item ar laying It ven-itTen that Pate geta revenge for the trouncing Big Boy Brltt handed him her two weeka ago. Th reason can be credited to th Medford boning ' commlnlon which stepped In last week after the Brltt Estes affair In which the latter won on a foul after very nigh hAvtng his arms ripped from their sockets. The commlah , with grim vieagea and stern words, informed Alvln Brltt and any other grappling fellowa that might be Interested, that from hence forth on there would b no mor of this arm-breaker over th rope busi ness. Although the commission's ul timatum didn't include the arm breaker over th leg, plenty painful Itself but not so much ao a that over the rop, th barring of the latter la expected to slow Brltt down to a mere walk. Or enough, anyway, so that Belcastro msy enter th com bat without fear of having an arm broken off at th elbow and tossed Into the third row ringside. Apparently, th usually rsglng Pete was sfrsld of Just that when he and Brltt tangled two weeks ago. Show ing none of his former fire and dash, he allowed Brltt to manhandl him for almost an hour and finally went calmly down to defeat. With the rope arm-breaker fear removed once and for all. Pet la expected to pro duce th ort of grappling for which he 1 noted. For appetizer to that main event which ahould turn out to be one of the best seen here In several months, Promoter Mack Llllard has carded Toots Estes and Cowboy Billy Mo Ewen In th middle event and Sailor Dick Trout and Oeorge Lagoekl In the opener. The Estes-McEwen affair appears to hold exceptional promise. Both sre the cleanest of grapplera and mix sensational wrestling ability with plenty of what It takes between the ears. Estes, th handsom -champlon of th Hawalln Islands, la figured one of the finest grapplera to ever show In Medford. Promoter Llllard, In carding the two, stated that be fully expected the match to prove one of the moat thrilling ever staged here. In the opener, Bailor Dick Trout, a huky newcomer from San Pedro, will tangle with serewey Oeorge Lagoakl, the amazing Russian Lion. Accord ing to all reports conoernlng Trout, he la a worker of the legitimate type, and one of th best on th Pacific coast. Lagoakl needs no Introduction to Medford fana. He Is probably ths greatest snowman Llllard has ever been able to procure, and what he lacks In grappling ability he more tnan makes up In facial contortions and colorful tactics. G.

SKINNER'S GARAGE 143 S. Riverside. Phone 102 POTIA Sport Graphs Billy Hulen 8ayi: Crescent City Washout Breaks League Record Until yeaterday that record of the Southern Oregon Baseball league of not having a ball game postponed on account of rain In six years, was real ly quite something. Enough to make southern California turn green with envy, so to speak. At that, southern Oregon in the strict sense can still point with pride to Its Ideal baseball weather because it wasn't In southern Oregon at all that the game was called off, but in northern California. The storm that hit Crescent ' City yesterday and forced the Medford Craters to stay at home just missed other league cities from the looks of the weather today. Olendale and Oranta Pass got their game played as did Roseburg and Ashland, but If the storm had been one day earlier, there would have been three postponed games Instead of only one. The closest the circuit ever came to seeing a league battle rained out was In 1J33 That year the league was composed of Klamath Falls, Ashland, Medford, Rose burg. Eagle Point and Co qullle, and on this Sunday, B1U Fortler took his Coqullle Loggers to Klamath Falls to play the Pel icans, managed by Frisco Ed wards, now In Salem. Talk about your long hops' for a brush league that Coqullle to Klam ath Falls Jaunt had them all topped. It was a two-day trip, and after traveling all Saturday afternoon and part of Saturday night, Coqullle ar rived In Klamath Falls to be met by as nice a storm as ever hit the Pell can city. It poured all Saturday night and all Sunday morning, and al though the field was a veritable lake the ball game was played. It contin ued to drizzle during the afternoon; the game waa halted four times for exceptionally hard showers, and when it was finally over, the score was 21- 20 In favor of the Loggers. Bill For- tier swore that he would never enter a club In the circuit again If KJamatn Falls was a member, and nobody real ly blamed him much, although he did win the ball game. Since then, there has not been one league affair postponed or even almost called off. It has rained bard all week on nnmer ons occasions, but along come Sunday and the weather man al waya bled his water spot else where. The record's now brok en, however, but the odds arc about 100-1 that It will be the last one to be postponed this year. Medford high's track and field team, until Saturday, undefeated, will point all Its guns at the annual district meet In Grants Pass next Saturday, and from all past perform ances, should have not too much trouble In breezing home In front of , the pack. ! That overwhelming Bend victory at I Klamath Falls came as quite a sur prise to this corner, but Coach Bow ormnu ui .nv ngcrv wok i wun a huge, good-natured grin. Disappointed? Certainly Bill was disappointed. He had built up sweet outfit of runners and Jumpers. and to be beaten so badly by Bend naturally didn't fill his heart with Joy. Bend was rated powerful, but nobody realized Just how strong the Lava Bears were until they blazed through all southern Oregon-north ern California opposition with appar ent ease. However, its all over now, and Bowerman and the boys are looking ahead to next Saturday with an eye on the state meet the week after. To enter the Oregon affair at Eugene, May 21-22, either first or second must be captured at the district program Saturday. EP. E J'VILLE 13 TO 0 EAGLE POINT. May 10. (Spl.) Eagle point High school ball team continued to win when they over whelmed Jacksonville here Thursday In a 13 to 0 shutout. Gallup, who pitched for the locals held the visi tors to a single hit, a Texas leaguer over second. The Eagle Point boys gathered nine hits which Included three baggers by Chamberlain and Caster. A combination of hits and errors in the second and fourth in nings accounted for most of the Cheesemakera runs. Only two Jack sonville men reached second, and both were retired on double plays. one by Chamberlain being unassist ed. Eagle Point has only one more conference game to play, a game with Central Point which will determine the second position In the confer ence. Both teams have lost one game. Eagle Point defeated St. Mary's here Tuesday, 8 to 5. For Greater Satisfaction Buy NOLDB & HOR5T HOSIERY at Ethelwyn B. Hoffmann's. S. tb H. Green Stamps. Use Malt Tribune want ads.
