Mad Marine Bob Kenaaum ana Mad Italian Fete Belcastro, two o: the game's maddest madmen, go to the poet In one-nan tne aouoie mam vent at the Medtord armory to night. In the other half BobDjr Chick, ellght heavyweight champ Ion of the world, tangles with Olon Stone, the guy who wa forced to change hie name to get In the front door of the country'! wrestling arenas. Both matches will go one hour or until one grunt and groaner collects two tumbles. Because Bob Kenaston, pride ot Gold Hill and ot all Jackson county, and Bobby, chick, brother of tne famous Dude, refuse to appear un der top billing, Promoter Mack Lll lard has made arrangements to flip a coin directly following the open' Ing event between Frankio Clemens and Prankle MUrdocK. -me winning pair of grapplcrs will tee off In the night's . final squabble, while the losers will work each other over In the middle event. Expect Big House . Because of the "natural" aspects of all three tangles, Promoter Ul- lard expect a Jammed auditorium this evening. Advance ticket sales re the best In months, he stated today. The Belcastro-Kenaston brawl Is figured by all-and sundry to develop Into the battle of the century. Master of the terrific Oold Hill crab, sometimes known as the Chi cago orb, depending on the locality In which It Is used, Kenaston will isnter the arena a huge favorite to chum the Weed, Cal., ruffian Into butter and spread him over tne armory walls. On the other hand. Belcastro will bring Into play nls sensational double-barreled dropklck accompanied by all the dirt and sav sgeneas only Belcastro csn produce. -Neither gentleman regards the other tn a friendly light, which should produce another one of those things, of which moat Belcastro shindigs turn out to be. Chick Is Cleanle In the other half ot the main go, Bobby Chick, an exponent of all lean and sclentlflo forms of grap pling, especially the sensational sir plans spin which he has developed to perfection, will face off against the stone toughle, a chap who has proved he knows all the answers ao far as foul stuff goes. However, after giving Belcastro the business last week (14 spins to a knockout), Chick figures that Stone wont prove auch a tough opponent. Even the opener botween Murdock and Clemens, carries tremendous drs tnatlo possibilities. It Is a rematcn from last week, when the two great wrestlers battled their way to a sx tound draw, with each taking one tumble In thrilling fashion. Earl Yoakley, fortified with sev eral brand new shlrta ot a heavy and durable quality, will act as third man In the ring. DEFEATS GONZAGA SPOKANE. Oct. 35.

On the assumption that the Black Tor nado will beat a weak Grants Pass outfit November 19, a win for Med- I ford over Ashland will give It the undisputed title, with two victories I and one tie compared to Klamath's 1 one win and two ties and Ashlsnd's 1 one win. one loss and one tie, u ' such happens.

On the surface, that savage, rock 'era and sock 'em scoreless tie be tween the Black Tornado and Klamath Falls Vrlrlnv nitrht. , ............ other than the fact tnat neither ball club had the offensive "push" t o ring the touchdown gong. But, to those local pigskin phll b e r t s who IllT Rule. had followed keenly the Tigers of Coach Bill Bowerman In their four previous starts, that 0-0 battle with the Klamath Pelicans proved once and for all that Medford la at last on the upswing, mentally and defens ively. Against Eureka the previous week, the Tornado looked tired and listless. Its tackling,' to put It mildly, was feeble. Against Klamath Falls Friday night, It was a brand new football team; It was alert, full of vinegar and plenty tough. It stood out there und battled a heavier and sup posedly belter Klamath forward wall right off Its collective feet, and when It tackled, well, Dom Glovunlnl and other Pelican ball-carriers stayed tackled. Paradoxically, Medford s admitted weakness was Its strength against Klamath, and Its proved strength waa Its apparent weakness. By no Btretch of the Imagination could the Tigers have been termed a tough defensive eleven on Its past record. but It was In that very phase that RADIO SERVICE On All Makes 90 day guarantee on ail repair work Y Wfi RADIO AND aT.ar'f g ELECTRIC SUOr tw ' f II Next to Roxv Phone 1731 I I - 1 I n i ' GHOSTS!

On (he other hand, tha Tornado had time after tlma proved Its offensive power (83 points In four games), but against Klamath Falls it failed to register a single marker. It can't, however, be definitely stated the Tornado showed a weak offensive against the peli cans. Those Klamathltes were defending their goal line bit terly, and penalties at crucial moments halted the Tornado a few yards shy of pay-dirt. At that Medford rolled up 241 yards from scrimmage to 156 for the Pelicans, a pretty fair Indication of Tiger superiority. It was defensively that the Torna do really reached the heights. When the pressure was applied, the sup posedly weak line was more than equal to the task. Dan Ehrhart was a great tackle against Klamath Falls. Rugged Dominie Glovanlnl found that out. With a first down on the Medford seven-ysrd line, Glovanlnl three times tested the right side of Medford's forward wall, and when It was all over the ball was still three yards from the final stripe, Ehrhart personally taking care of the Klam ath fullback. From end to end, the Tornado's first line of defense turned In a magnificent performance. If It can remain at the peak reached against Klamath Falls, If it continues to tackle low and viciously, there may be no stopping the Tigers from here on out. The bareheaded guy you see parad ing up and down the main stem to day Is none other than Mr. 1. Plckem. greatest prognosttcstor of pigskin clashes the world has ever known. (He Is bareheaded because he can't find a hat to fit on account of what happened on the football front last Saturday.) By nature, J. Plckem Is a modest chap. He never gloats over the amazing predictions he turns In weekly. And. so It Is today. He will point out. in barest detail, how he reached stupendous heights last Fri day In naming eight (8) winners out of 12 absolute tosaup football en counters, probably the greatest ex hibition of prognosticating In his tory. Modestly, J. Plckem points to that Fordham-Texas Christian battle In New York City. Mr. Plckem named A SPECIAL INVITATION TO Southern Oregon Mechanics-Machinists. Boilermakers. Body Men, Metal Workers, Firemen and Engineers to attend a Special Meeting at 219 W. Main, Tues., Oct. 26, 8 p. m. PURPOSE TO ORGANIZE Armory Fordhun to win. 7-8. The final score was 7-8 In favor of Fordhsm. Also, to the Ysle upset victory over mighty Cornell. That waa I. Plckem'a big "reversal" for the week, and ha was correct, naming Yale to cop, 14-13, and they did, 9-0. Plckem blushes profusely, however, on the Brown-Columbia affair. Out of 12 games, the ace plcksr selected that encounter as his "breather," naming Columbia to win, 3O-0. Brown provided the big upset of tha east by eking out a 7-8 verdict. The record for last week-end la even better then eight for 13, be cause Klamath Falls and Medford played to a scoreless tie, and ties don't count under the new system inaugurated last week. It is eight for 11. To date, the oomplete record of I.-Plckem stacks up thlsaway: Picked Won Lost Tied Pet. 60 33 19 9 - .627 Plckem got the limb sawed out from under him on the Oregon- Oregon State game, which the Beav ers won, 14-0. Instead of losing. 13 20; the UCLA-WSC embrogllo which the Cougars copped, 3-0, Instead of dropping, 0-6; and, as before men tioned, the Brown-Columbia night mare. Here are the Jewels of prognostica tion as turned in by I. Plckem last Friday: Stanford to beat Washington by one . point they did by 13-7; California over use, 14-7, and tne score waa 20-6; P&rrland to wallop Blglam Young. lS-C..ACd' it was 13-10; Notre Dame to win from Navy, 12-7, and they did, 9-7; Ohio State to rap Northwestern, 19-7; which they did, 7-0; Baylor to defeat Texas A. and M., 27-30. the final being, 18-0: and the Fordham win over Texas Christian and the Yale victory over Cornell. u Lutheran Leader Dies BELLEVUE, Ohio, Oct. 25.
