Pull House Looms Because of the extreme local In terest In the Bites-Carter main event, Promoter Mack LI Hard warns all pat rons to get to the scene of action as early as possible. Ho stated that hi would not be surprised If It were standing room only. The two great grapplers were rematched from three weeks ago by popular demand, and the year's largest crowd Is expected to attend. LI Hard said today that ad vance ticket sales were the best In several months. For straight grappling. Estes snd Carter have no equal In southern Ore gon and very few In the entire coun try. Three weeks ago they displayed what is generally considered the fin eat exhibition of honest-to-good ness mat work ever seen hereabouts. For 67 minutes the pair sloshed through the rain at the high, school stadium, with Carter finally upsetting Estes and winning the lone fall of the full- hour match. Fans sent an avalanche of requests to the promoter for a re match, and tonight they get what hey want. Meanles To Meet ; In direct contrast to the main event. Lea Wolfe and Gorilla Pogl will stage one of those rlp-tearlng. foul -punching, eye-gouging affairs that send customers Into spAsms of hate and disgust but bring them back for more. Fans won't mind which gets his block knocked off, Just so long as one of them does. The opener between Sailor Trout and Bobby Wagner, both cleantes, Is figured to be almost as fine an ex hibition as the main event. Wagner. In the few weeks he hat appeared locally, has proved he "knows most all the answers, and Trout's record Is well known. DEER HANGOUTS PORTLAND. Sept. 30.

That something will be a beautiful Billy Ra lea wrist watch, donated by Schade to the football player who Is considered the most valuable to his team and inspiring to his teammates of all the Black Tornado performers. It may oe a swivel-hipped halfback who. by his twisting payoff gallops and Infectious victory -fire, leads his outfit to a suc cessful season. Or, It may be an un sung linesman, little noticed by the grandstand and almost forgotten In the general shuffle, whose great work Is appreciated only by members of his team and his coaches. The method of naming which of the Tiger players Is most de- i serving of the honor has not yet been decided. Coach Bowermon plans to get In tnurb with Zell. a Portland jeweler who makes a similar award each year to the most valuable high school player In the metropolis, and will prob ably pattern the method of se lection here after that used In Portland. Anyway, whoever wins the award and by whatever means he Is selected. It Is a fine ges ture on the part of Larry Hchade and a fine thing for football In Med ford high. It became a certainty yesterday that Portland's Beavers would not be seen In Medford this year in an ex hibition game. By their double win over Oakland, the battling Ducka nosed Into fourth place In the Pacific Coast league standings and insured themselves a berth In the Shaugbnes- sy playoffs, which start this week. Portland, In case it didn't make the first division, was planning a barn storming tour through Oregon, and attempts were being made by offi cials of the Medford Athletic asso ciation to bring Schefter'a club here for an encounter. However, the Idea s alt waahed up now, and local en thusiasts will have to wait another year before seeing a Coast league out fit in action. It la here suggested that negotiations be started plenty early next season with Portland or some other league team for a battle on the fine turf diamond nt the high school. While on the subject of baseball, Wally, Rlckert announced yesterday that he would be unable to lead the Jackson county all-etar nine Into ac tion against the Josephine county luminaries next Saturday and Sun day at the county fair grounds In Grants Pans. Wally. received word from hla home of floe in Portland that a saIos meet ing would be In prog roan during thoae days, and his presence at said meeting was very much requested. 8o he will go to Portland Instead of playlntt baseball. Rlckert stated that he would contact Leonard Hall In Ashland, this year's manager of the Llthlans, and turn the managerial Job over to him.

New York's Qlants and Chicago's bolstered Cubs, who are. at the mo ment. 3'i games apart In that order. go to work on each other's throats In & serlea atarting tomorrow. Prom their three-game fuss, either the Giants will stagger all but -in" with the pennant, or the Cubs will wsltop their wsy to a fight down to the tspe. Over In the rival loop, meantime, the Yankees, with a 10 game lead, only need any combination of five victories or five Detroit defeats, or a collection of the two, mathematical ly to eliminate the Tigers and nail the flag to their mast for another year.
