for being ready to announce he is
"building for next year," the usual

As a matter of cold and calm fact,

first; the performance of line

sieve-like, but which proved It
self more on the rock-like va
riety, and second; the perform
ance of an offensive backfleld
which showed only one weakness,
that of not following the Inter
ference. That backfleld, rated
previously as having what It
takes, proved it.
Although the Black Tornado lost
a football game 14-13, the aame game
revealed that Coach BUI Bowerman
and his staff will not have to lose
any more sleep over worrying how
the Tiger forward wall la going to
stand up under serious battering.
From and to end, the Red and Black
line was entirely satisfactory. Don

both turned In a great game. So did
Hubert Santo and Dan Ehrhart,
tackles, and Prentloe and Stevens,
centers. But, the moet enlightening
and plaaturablt situation of all waa
the manner In which Oene Archibald
and Wally Erl came through at the
ruard alots. Considered the weak
links In the front line chain, the
pair worked their heads off and were
tough enough.
Statistics of the game showed ho
superior the Tiger line waa to thst
of Hgod Rlw'i, During the first
half, the visitors gBlned only 30
yards through the Medford forwards.
while those name linemen were open
ing huge hole through which Ttpei
backs raced (or 17a yards, net. All
told. Hood Rtver gained 70 yards on
the ground, but 50 of them came in
the aecond half, while Medford, fran
tic, was employing a five-man line
In an attempt to halt a barrage ol
forward passes. There la no team
that can uae a five-man Una and
effectively halt a running attack.
Behind the line, Medford'a quar
tet of ball-packers ran all over the
field. It proved it had epeed, rug
gedneM and shiftiness. It also proved
It needed considerable drilling In
ataylnK with Its blockers. Time after
time, Hill, Orow. Campbell, and even
stUnger, nwung wide around end

army of wipers-up on out, cut back

prove effective; Ettlnger broke loose
on a cut-back and went AO yards to
the goal line. Every other time the
mall -carrier left his interference, be
was knocked over. In Bttlngtir'a case
he did It by pure speed more than
anything elM, literally outraclng the
Hood River secondary.
Naturally, the reason for Medford

forward passes. They took their beat
ing without opening up, and It waa
apparent that Hood River waa not a
forward passing team. So, when
Finch, who by the wty Is considered
about the best high school scout In
the state reported to Bowerman. his
notes contained nothing whatsoever
about the passing maglo that was
unveiled at the etadlum last Friday.
At a result, the Tigers were drilled
very little on ptsa detente. There was
evidently nothing to tear from Hood
River through the air, hence the lack
of serious workouts on past dsfense.
Most of the time was spent on per
fecting a belter for the Appleplcker
running attack, which worked. It
seems pretty far fetched. .In a high
school team, but we wonder If canny
Jimmy Can of the Appleplckert
could have slipped one over on the
boys down here by playing under
heavy wraps against Camas, keeping
his brilliant passing game well out
of sight to spring as a surprise. If he
did, boy, oh boy, how It worked.

Aside from little old New York's
second-straight championship mono

standouts as you look baok over the
campaign were Its success from a fin
ancial viewpoint, the epidemic of In
jurlee that hit every club In both

and the high-class walloping of Ducky
Medwlck and Joe Dlmagglo.

SOUNDS TAPS
STOP your car in open country one of these nights
while fireflies still twinkle and the orchestra of insects
is in its last wild frenzy. Perhaps you'll hear a new
musician tuning up: "Katy did! . . . Katy didn't!" A
week later when others are muted by the sudden chill
of night, this lone fiddler's notes will multiply into a
loud and rousing threnody:
"KATY DID! . . . KATY DIDN'T!"
And what is this to you? "Six weeks after the first
katydid comes the frost!"
How will you make the most of the months ahead?
. . . Have you thought how fully the advertisements tell
the story of your needs? Here, in the pages of this
newspaper, syles originate and coming events are
clearly shown. Here are things new and important
for the home, for personal use, for business. Depend
upon advertising to think in advance for you ... to
save you money and energy, and keep you abreast of
the times. Winter's ahead ... but advertising has
foreseen its coming!
but once they climbed Into the sad
dle, there' was no stopping them. The
Oiants wound up with a 4-1 win over
their best-hated pals, the Brooklyn
Dodgers, yesterdsy.
The fine showing of Jimmy Dykes'
Chicago White Sox In upsetting the
dope by winding up third in the
American league, finishing with a 9-0,
7-9 doublebesder win over the last
place Browns yesterday, stood out In
the American league.
Beet Fool Experts
Major job of fooling the experts wat
turned in by the Boston Bees. Rated
t seventh or eighth place outfit, they
finished Just a game out of fourth
place on 'the ttrength of two 90-game
pitching rookies, Lou Fette, who hit
the 90-mark yesterday with a 0-0
shutout over the Phillies, tnd Jim
Turner.
The Nstlonsl league cellar was
'won" by the Cincinnati Reds, who
absorbed a 4-8, 4-0 twin defeat at the
hande of the Plratea yesterday, wind
ing up the nightmare their pre -season
dream had become.
The Cardinals, minus Dizzy Dean
who was of no use sfter having a
hand la the National league's loss to
the American leaguers In the all-star
game. Just made third place, drop

Red BOX Plop
Boston's Red Sox again were the
"gold flops" for Tom Yawkey and fin
ished fifth. Their finale waa a 8-1
beating at the hands of the Yanka
yesterday, featuring Joe Dlmagglo's
homer with the bsses loaded,
Cleveland's Indians again were
disappointment and rode In with
fourth place. They dropped the sea
son's wlndup, 1-0, yesterday to the
one-hit pitching of Jake Wade for the
Tigers.
Washington's Senators and the
Athletics, neither of which waa ever
in the race, split their last double
