PAGE TWO MEDFOTtD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, TUESDAY. SEPTEMBER 28, 1937, GRAPPLERS STAGE IN BATTLE ROYAL Over 1300 screeching grapple fans packed the Med ford armory last night to witness the return or Mad Marine Bob Ken aa ton and Awe tea Wolfe, the Terrible Texan, get the trouncing of his life. They weren't disappointed tn the first place Konaston returned In all his unholy glory. But Wolfe positively didn't receive the trounc ing expected, although he did suffer several tough moments. However, Instead of being In on the hoped-for "kill" of the villain from Texas, local addicts were present for some of the moat astounding action ever seen here, also some of the most Sensational, and there was a mini mum of disappointment when the one-hour program was ended. Proceedings started with the hat tie royal, which reached an all-time high for blood -and -thunder action and rlp-snortlng excitement. Tough little little Zlbby Zybszko was the . first wrestler to be eliminated, fall- j lng prey to a booming dropklck from ; Bailor Dick Trout. Then the action ! really started. Marshall Carter sin- fled out Wolfe and went to work, j First he chased him around the ring i with sonne n bergs, finally driving the Texan to cover outside the ring. Even then, Carter continued his personal feud, grabbing the Wolfe me ante by the head and bouncing his neck on the ropes until the lanky ruffian was howling for mercy. Seeing his part ner In crime In a bad way. Bob Ken aston pounded to the rescue, grabbing Carter from behind and hurling him across the arena. Carter and Wagner proceeded to gang up on Kena-ston by clamping en a devastating leg spilt. It was Apparent that the Gold Hill gorilla was down and down plenty, but In the meantime, Wolfe had returned to action and, with Trout, made so inuch commotion that Referee Earl .Toakley was utterly unable to award anybody anything. For more than one full minute, all five grnpplers and the ref were In one mad tagle of flailing arms and legs, with Yoak ley getting the worst of It. Suddenly, the entire mob pounced on Wolfe and be followed Zbyszko into defeat. With three clean lea left In there. Ken aston was In trouble at once. Wagner, Trout and Carter decided to wipe him away and It was done like this: Wagner grabbed his arms from Outside the ring, held him wide open to a frontal attack, and Trout and Carter started exploding dropklcks at his unprotected torso. After about six apiece, Kenaaton was randy to holler "when," and a moment later the throe clambered aboard and the "1ft thm Boor" yen 8alem Brewery Ass'n, Salem i i it, fii:i;i.w:i.'.w.g.i..!wv-i The John Deere Model "D" is the heavy-duty tractor for the big farm jobs and it's built to stand up to these jobs for many profitable years.

Wagner and Carter battled It out for the main event spot, and the battle royal was done for when Carter blasted a dropklck that caught Trout square on the button. The entire thing lasted all of 10 minutes, and was the greatest exhibition of that type yet to be started In the local house of horrible happenings. Coming back for the opener, Les Wolfe made short work of Zbyszko after his usual display of dirtiness de luxe. A rolling body scissors did the work. Bob Kenaston applied a Chicago crab to Sailor Dick Trout to win the middle event In less than three- min utes. Trout refused the match after Kenaston had first rammed his knee to the kidney, then hammered a1 doubled -up fist to the same spot. Referee Yoakley attempted to award Trout the match on a foul, but the sailor, although barely able to stand on his feet. Insisted on facing the huge Kenaston. It was a fine gesture of pure nerve, but foolhardy, for Kenaston Immediately powerhoused his way past Trout's weakly flailing arms and clamped on the devastating Chicago crab. Marshall Carter and Bobby Wagner raced through 31 minutes of sensa tion mat work In the, main event, with Carter finally producing the payoff via thrilling body flips, after breaking a Boston crab. Both grnp plers ran the gamut of clean and scientific maneuvers. Seldom does an audience get heated up over a pair of cleanlea displaying their stuff, but It did last night.

LEE'S RADIO A ELECTRIC SHOP Vcxt to Roxy Phor.c r 7 Sport Graphs Billy Holen Sayi: Grid Officials Don't Wave Arms Merely in Pun Now that this pigskin season Is actually In full swing, how about leaving the roaring halfbacks and ripping linemen to their press clip pings for a little while and taking a look at the officiating end of the business. Although we can't draw pictures on a typewriter, we'll at tempt to explain and describe the goings-on as the white-clad umpires, referees and head linesmen wave their arms about In what, to some people probably seems like so much wasted motion. However, they don't wave their arms for fun. Of courae, the best-known mo tion, and one uhlch even the most Ine.vperlrnred spectator understandi, or Miould anyway, Is the vertical lifting of the arms straight to the sky. When you see a referee leap up and appar ently grab for a handful of clouds, you know that a tmi-hiloivn hus been scored or a field goal pro duced. The same motion, only with the palms toRcther over head, denotes a wifoty, or two points. Also, the same motion embellished by a sifting of hands overhead meum a time out. Now for some of the deeper secrets used by officials to describe what Is what and why. When you see an of ficial stand out there with his hands nonchalantly resting on his hips, you can be certain that somebody has been off-side or there has been a violation of the kick-off formation. If an official stands with his hands, r- DISTRIBUTED palms out. on his thighs, there has j been some crawling, pushing or help ing the runner, a very bad habit to get Into. Most average fans believe the pushing signal Is Just what It looks like, the official standing with his arms horizontal to the ground J and palms out, like he was shoving open a door. However, that motion I denotes Interference with a forward pass or a pass which touches an In eligible player, and positively doesn't mean a player has been guilty of pushing unless, of course, he has pushed the pass-receiver. When a player has been guilty of ,merec' A telephone call will do the holdlnd. the word li flashed to the!trlck- Bnd an flre Wftrne1 to rab grandstand and press box by the of' flclal grabbing one wrist like he was going to tear It off. A player Ille gally In motion ts noted by the of ficial slapping his arm across his chest and horlzotal to the ground. When you witness a referee or um pire salute you, he means that some ball player has staged unnecessary roughness. And finally, when you see an official swing his arms criss-cross across his body, It means that a pen alty has been refused, a pass Is In complete, a goal has been missed, or a play Is to be replayed: Any doubt as to how Prink Culltson's flaming sophomores were cuing to come throagh In their first taste of varsity com petition of the Pariflc coast con ference variety was certainly dis pelled last Friday night. Although getting bumped by UCLA, 26-13, under the lights at Los Angeles, the Weti foots displayed more of fensive dynamite In that one and first game than they did all lost year. And, It was that unmed and In experienced sophomore backfleld that accounted for both touchdowns and more Important still, to Medford ad dicts, anyway, It was their own Bob Smith who set off all the fireworks. The great former Tiger smashed across one slx-polnter and heaved a pass to Jay Oraybeal for the other. Which Is about all you could expect from any one guy In any 60 minutes of football game. For that matter. Bob didn't even play the entire game, either.
