PAGE FOUR M"EDFORD MATL TRIBUNE. MEDFORfl I 5 7 , - Mi iiiiiir CARTER TUMBLES ESTES TWICE IN Sharpshooter Marshall Carter, the handsome and popular ex - University of Missouri wrestling instructor, last night rivet ed his claim to the cleanle ctaam- plonshlp of southern Oregon when he dropped Toots Estes In two straight tumbles In the main event of Promoter Mack LUlard's weekly grappling card at Med ford armory. In one of the most thrilling straight-wrestling matches ever seen here, Carter made It two straight wins over the equally popular Estes by virtue of a pair of sensational flying scissors and body slams, both coming Just when It appeared that Toots was on the road to evening up the score between the two. The first fall occurred after about 16 minutes of ding-dong action during which both grapplers opened the book. Forcing the action, Estes had Carter in a bad way but, following the tac tics he employed all evening. Carter squirmed out of a tough step-over toe hold, slammed Toots Into the ropes, caught him on the rebound and applied his shoulders to the linoleum. - - The second fall came In almost a like manner about 10 mlnuts later. However, Carter weakened Estes for this tumble by pouring on painful arm plncher for several min utes. Toots broke the hold several times but Carter kept boring In to work on the weakened left arm and finally set the stage. The end came as Estes, Infuriated, fired dropklcks and sonnenbergs at Marshall, the last of which missed Its mark. Estes crashed Into the ropes and Carter was on band to take him on the rebound and stand him on his shoul ders when It counted. The middle event between Les Wolfe and Gorilla Pogl lasted less than 10 minutes. Wolfe started Im mediately to run the gamut of foul ness and after an exceptionally dirty exhibition during which he ham mered the Argentinean to the groin, clamped on a Boston crab and gave him tht business. Referee Zbyszko awarded Wolfe the fall, but when the Texas Terror wouldn't break the hold, gave It to Pogl on a foul. However. Wolfe had done his dirt well and the Gorilla was unable to return for more action. Bleeding from a freshly opened cut over hla left eye, Pogl was a sad spectacle, and the decision was one of the most unpopular with the spectators to ever be perpetrated here. There was nothing else the referee could do, but that didn't cool the crowd's bate for Wolfe any. Sailor Dick Trout took the first! and third falls from Bobby Wagner In the opening event In another ex ceptionally clean and scientific bout. The Ban Diego sailor used his favor ite maneuver the dropklck to score first In the Initial stanea. Wagner came back to even the count In the fourth frame with a cannon-ball drop, a highly effective reverse body : slam. Opening the fifth round, Trout roared from his corner, cut loose with a pair of payorr double-leg punch fa that found Wagner's chin, and It was all over.

In the eleventh annual Pacific south west tennis tournament moved Into the third round today, with most of the seeded stars looking for more competition than observers felt they'd get. Top seeded In the men's singles, J. Donald Budge of California and Baron aottfrlecl von Cramm of Ocr ninny, headed Into comparatively easy matches, and the same seemed true In the women's singles. Bud?e was paired a;alnst young Billy Drieg of Santa Monica, Calif., who promised to give America' net king a worm workout, while Von Cramm In the opposite draw had Owen Anderson, local college threat. Much to the consternation of the management, as well as to that part of the gallery who like a little pul chritude along with their tennis, the face of En)nnd'rt Kny Stnmmers was mlMing from the singles play.

SMITH, f aT 1 f it I U Sport Graphs Bill; Hulen 8ay: Alumni Promises Bowerman's Boys Painful Saturday a tfim 9 Ouch I We'll say that right now for Coach Bill Bowerman of the Medford high Tigers, although there Is no law to prevent him from adding a few more "ouchea" J when he gets an eyeful of what the alumni will throw at his 1937 ball club next Saturday in the VSL I ' annual fracas be- ,i tween the pres ent and past Red and Black foot ball performers Dick Lewis, who will play some halfback for the alumni come next Saturday, was naming the probable lineup yesterday for the former Tigers, and from the looks of things, the present crew of Medfordltes will not only have their hands full, but their helmets, shoes, water bucket and dressing room, as well. The alumni team may not be In the best of condition, and probably won't be, but what It lacks In wind and endurance It will more than make up for in size, speed, experience and all-around ability. The, score last year was 13-6 In favor of the former Tigers. Comparing this sea son's lineup with last, there is little apparent loss of power. In fact, the grads look slightly stronger than last year which, If true, will put plenty of pressure on the men of Bower-man. Two of Medford high's finest flank men will hold down the end posi tions Saturday against their alma mater. They are Stan Kunzman, last season with tha University of Oregon frosb. where ha went great guns, and big Bob Hlnman. member of the Webfoot varsity last year. So far. only one tackle has made known his Intentions of getting back in har ness again Keith Estes but several more large and ungentlemanly boys are certain to be on hand when festivities start. , Ron Baker and John Dickin son, the latter a member of the Oregon State Rook club last year, will do their stuff at the guard slots, and here, also, more help Mill be forthcoming, with names and Information . to be announced later as the bojs about town i.lRn up ror the cir cus. At center, Llod Hummack, a big, tough fellow, will hold forth. Horn mack has been ap pointed captain of the alumni aggregation, and plans to mess up a considerable number of high school plays If possible. Last year's encounter was a thriller. With the score tied 6-6 and four minutes to play, Dtck Lewis broke away off tackle and raced 53 yards to tho four-yard stripe where Clyde Fichtner blasted It across. Clyde, who Is a nice, big fellow now and who has learned a considerable amount of he-man business since Joining Clatous McCredie's corps of coppers, expects to do some more blasting. Previous to that final touchdown Leo Ghelardl had passed across tha goal line to Eddie Simmons for tha first alumni score, and the high school had tied it up when Eldon Grow, who this season will be play Uig fullback for the Tlgera, found a blocked pass resting In his arms and made the most of the situation. We are not making any predic tions on the outcome of the game, which nil) be the first of the season for the Black Tor nado and the first and only for the alumni. It may be ragged aa all set out. as early season em hrogllo's usually are. hut there Is no doubt but that It will be mil of the old vinegar. Natu rally, nothing pleases former high school performers so moeh as to come from the land of yes terday and show the girls and hoys ' that they ran still play this game of football. Any local gentlemen who used to pi a for Med ford hi gh and wou id like' to don their cleats again are urged to be at the field today at 5:30 p.m. I LORAIN. O. (UP) The son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Reber probably never will be girl-shy. Scon after birth the Infant Reber was placed In a hospital nursery crib among six girls the only boy In the nursery. Men's luggage differs from wo men's luggage In that Its corners are square, while the corners of women's lueeaee are rounded. Starting with the backfleld which. after all, accounts for touchdowns, If any, we find Clyde Fichtner, a husky fullback now doing local po lice work, Leo One and 1, one of the greatest "breakaway" runners in Tiger history, Dick Lewis, a star on the Gonzaga frosh team two years ago, and BUI Knips, ex -Med ford high star, all seething with a desire to show up the latest crop of high school heroes. Those boys will work out today at 5:30 p.m. at the high school, and will all see lots of serv ice during the ball game. There will undoubtedly be several more backs available. 1 SLEEP WHILE YOU RIDE!
