Klckoff time la H p.m. Coach Jay Wlllard'e Loggers, boast ing four veteran linemen and one letterman ball-carrier, have seen ac tion In but one Important ball game this year. Last week they defeated a strong Red Bluff aggregation, o-o. Reports from northern California are to the effect that Coach Wlllard tnis year has developed a team that fig ures to go clear through without a blemish to Its record. Boost Giant Line. Leading the Red and Green team Into Oregon territory for the first time this year will be Chet Allen, all foot six Inch center, weighing 180 pounds; Klsner Starcovlch, 310 pound tackle and considered the greatest lineman In Eureka history; Albright, 300-pound tackle; Rodney Coffron. 160-pound right guard and eaptaln; "Boraplron" Tomanovlch. 173-pound left guard, and Don Our- dan, fullback, the boy who ran and ran and ran and ran against the Tigers last season. Average weight of the forward wall which will oppose that of the Tor nado la 187 pounds, not bsd for a high school outfit. It will outwelgn the local line by about 13 pounds per man. The Logger backtleld wiu hit around 100 pounds, practically the same as Medford's. Use Air orten. Employing both the single and double wlngback from a backtleld shift behind a balanced line and featuring reverses, double reverses, and all varieties of forward and lateral passes, the Loggers each year come up with a highly colorful ag gregation. Jay Wlllard, veteran coach. beUeves In plenty of overhead atuit, and his football teams reveal hia ' thoughts. In last yesr'a 10-0 Medford victory ever the Callfornlana, It was Bob Wilson, Tiger end, taking two for ward passes from ths good right arm of Bob Olson to score a pair of touchdowns and Olson, himself, streaking through a gaping hols for 90 yards and the goal line. Thla year, there will be no Olson throw ing touchdown passes. Re Is a mem' ber of the Oregon State Rook out fit. Bob Wilson, hero of last sea- son's thrilling battle, Is a member of Coech Bowerman'a squad now, but has apparently been ousted from his flank post by the great perform ance of Don Montelth, who will un doubtedly start the game. He may, however, see action. Tlsera Drill Lightly. In the Tiger lair, Coach Bower- man sent his charges through a me dluro stiff workout yesterday sgalnst Eureka passes. Today will see the Tornado merely limber up end polish off slightly ragged offensive maneu vers. Minor Injuries struck two ends yesterday when Eugene Miller got tooth broken and Montelth came down with a mild attack of Intesti nal flu. Both will probably be able to go tomorrow night, however. Bob by Bttlnger, out Tuesday with in. testlnsl flu, was back In harness yesterday, completely recovered. - PITTSBURGH. Pa., Oct. 14. (AP) Harold J.

HEAD MONDAY'S CARD Pete Belcastro and Bobby Chick, former light heavyweight wrestling champion of the world, will headline next Monday night's mat program at the Medford armory. Promoter Mack Lillard announced today. Prankle Murdoch and Frankle Clem ent, two cleanlea, will meet In the middle event and Oorllla Pogl will face Olen Stone In the opener. The latter pair are villains. Referee will be Earl Yoakley. All bot-atove goaslp concerning the possibility of this team or that out fit copping the Southern Oregon conference championship will be squelched Friday night when Skeet O'Connell takes his Ashland high Orlzeltei to Klamath Falls After that ball game, everyone will know Just where everyone else stands. Lest there be a mlsunder- standlng, It is not being . stated that the Ashland- Klamath squab ble will determine the aonfftrnr muj rune o n a m p I o n- shlp. Far from It. There is still highly potential Medford club to con aider, a team that hasn't even played a league game yet. What we mean Is that when the Pelicans and prlz- zlles get through pecking and claw- lng at each other, soma semblance of order will be gained In the confer ence race, a fairly reliable form sheet drawn up. Grants, Pass, because of 12-0 and 18-0 beatings at the hands of Ashland and Klamath Falls, re spectlvely. Is mathematically eliminated from the pennant scramble. The teams play but three conference games. At pres ent, Ashland and Klamath are tied at the top of the rung with one win and no los. while Med ford's slate Is still clean on both sides. The winner at Klamath Falls -Fri day will hold a commanding lead and, while not sewing up the cham pionship, will practically clinch at least a tie for the bunting. For ex ample, should Ashland knock off the Pelicans, they would then boast a record of two victories and no de feats. To beat them out for the title, Medford would have to sweep Its three games, Including the one with the Grizzlies, or Klamath Falls would be forced to beat Medford for a tie. In case Klamath did that, and Ashland lost to Medford, then the three teams would be in a triple deadlock for first place providing, of course, that the, Tigers whip Grants Pass, which Is expected. This season, it wss Impossible to schedule a team for the Tornado on that date, hence the successful at' tempt to bring the drizzliea to town. Because of the move, Medford1 Tigers will at least play one confer ence battle In their own back yard, Qranta Pass and Klamath Falls will be met In those cities and, while the Cavemen won't be so tough, appar ently, tne Klamath Falls brawl Is ex pected to set an all-time high for sheer savageness. The date Is Octo ber 22, one week from tomorrow. And here's hoping the Tigers are not look ing too hard In the Klamath direction to lose sight of the fact that they play Eureka tomorrow evening, man's football game In anybody's league. Because of arrangements between C. O. Smith and B. C. Foraythe. Med ford and Ashland high school princi pals, the traditional Grizzly-Tiger battle has been shifted to the local stadium Instead of being played In Ashland. Probably the most Import ant reason for the desire of local of ficials to change the location of the game Is because of the annual Ameri can Legion celebration of Armistice day here. For years, the local post has staged festivities on November 11, and always It has been a root ball game that featured the propram. Before we get away from that Klamath Falls-Ashland game entirely, It should be pointed out that fanB will be treated to one of football's rarest and most tasty dishes a per sonal duel between two great back field performers. In Dominic Glovaninl, the Pelicans boast a ball. carrier who la considered one of the finest to ever appear In southern Oregon.' Although not overly fast, the husky Italian Is terrifically hard runner and almost impossible for one tackier to bring to earth. For Ashland, Steve Fowler, bruising 300-pound fullback, has for the past two years been acclaimed the most promising line crusher In years. Although never quite reach ing the form expected of him before, fans who have seen him this season declare he has at last caught the flame. If so, a tremendous battle will most certainly occur when he meets up with Klamath's rugged Glovaninl. - At that, a couple of other boys may steal the show from their highly publicized team mates. A fellow by the name of Pete Green, a halfback, has been ballyhooed to this department as even better than Glovaninl. Our special agents In Klamath Falls and Grants Pass, where he ap peared last week, state be Is fast er and tougher than Glovaninl. and can pass like a bullet and punt like Bill Steers. For Ashland, Furman Carter, a letterman halfback who saw not a great deal of action last year. Is be ing cracked to the skies as driving and battering even herder than Steve Fowler. Personally, we know that Carter really can smash that line. Saw him play last year. But, until he proves he can keep his head up while ramming the line, we'll take Fowler. Also, Oiovanlnl, until this Green guy starts tearing teams apart like Glovaninl did last year and has done so for this season. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 14. (AP) Gerry Nugent, president of the Phila delphia National league baseball club, today had settled Philadelphia's an nual pastime of guessing about the future of Jimmy Wilson as manager of the Phillies. "I feel that Wilson has accom plished the best result with the ma terial available." Nugent said In an nouncing Wilson had signed. from the Isolated timber claim, where they had been buried by the Mansfield family, after the total de struction of the home and contents. Within the next ten days, the Humane society plans memorial serv ices and the dedication of a bronze plaque on a granite base, in honor of the faithful dog. Humane society officials were told by the mother the dog's rescue of Shirley from a fiery death was not the first time "Shep," called "Stub by'1 by his mistress, had played heroic role. Last summer the dog dragged the tot to her mother, by her clothing, and then led the par ent to a rattlesnake colled near where the child had been playing. The snake was killed. The pet kept constant watch over the little girl, her mother said The dog perished after he had dragged Shirley from her cot to window, where she could be reached by the mother. The Mans fields were working In a clearing when the dog's bark apprised them the house was ablaze. When the heat and smoke repelled the parents' efforts to enter the house where the child was taking her afternoon nap, "Shep," with the command, "Go get Shirley," plunged in. The dog, pain maddened, rushed back and was trapped when a window fell, cutting off the last escape. Humane society aides said the dog hero was a "strain shepherd," with no pedigree, born In this city and about 18 months old Letters extolling the nobility of "Shep" have been received from scores of Pacific coast dog lovers. BASKETBALL STAR TO E A free demonstration of the art of basketball will be given in the Med ford high school gym next Monday night at 7:30 o'clock by Chuck Tay lor, considered one of the cleverest ball handlers, passers and dribblers ever to tread the maple floor. A member of several professional quintets for over ten yaers. Taylor will show fans and players how It's done. Bill Bowerman, Tiger coach, said that he would have several mem bers of last year's team on the floor to act as stooges for the brilliant Taylor. Two years ago the ex-professional star exhibited hla talents at Southern Oregon Normal and Bowerman was so Impressed that he put In a bid for Taylors appearance here. Yes terday he received definite word that Taylor would be on hand. LOS ANGELES. Oct. 14. (API- Bob Feller, 18-year-old strikeout king, started a winter pitching va cation today after dazzling 8000 Los Angeles fans In an exhibition game last night. The farm boy from Van Meter. Ia., worked five Innings and fanned ten battter? as his American league mates defeated a National league team, 7 to 3. TWO-TIME LOSER T EUGENE, Oct. 14. (?) Joseph Klnman, 23, a "two-time loser," made a daring daylight escape from the Lane county Jail late yesterday after noon, but after a few hours' free dom and wrecking an automobile, he was back behind the bars today. Klnman. Indicted yesterday by the grand Jury for burglary, was facing the state law which gives persons convicted of two crimes a maximum ten-year sentence. Officers believed he had help In making his break. The prisoner apparently escaped through a small window near the celling of the cell, officers said. Leaving the jallyard, he took a car owned by Raymond Hulbert of Yoncalta and headed north on the Pacific highway, after first obtain ing a bottle of wine. He wrecked the car north of the city and was seen by Ray Berney, auto camp pro prietor who, thinking him merely a drunken driver, gave chaae and caught him, holding him for the officers.
