Under the arch light of the sta
dium tonight, Bend high school's
mighty Lava Bears and the Black
Tornado of Medford high answer the
bell In one of the year's classic of
classics. Klckoff time Is eight o'clock
sharp.
Over 6000 spectators are expected
to pack the huge, covered grand
stand, the temporary bleachers, and
the sidelines as Coach BUI Bower
man reveals his new and fighting
Tigers In action against the football
machine undefeated In 31 consecutive
trips to the post.
Btate Attention
The football eyes of Oregon will
be centered on Medford tonight.
Already the drums of ballyhoo are
booming Coach John Londahl'a Bend
aggregation as the state's "top hole" i
grid array; the logical choice for that
Thanksgiving day battle In Portland
against the metropolitan champion.
A victory over Medford will leave
only Klamath Palls standing In the
pathway of a second straight un
beaten year, and will practically
clinch the Portland bid for the Lava
Bears. A defeat for Bend, and Port
land will took elsewhere for Its
''championship game" opponent.
In the last game played, between
the two schools, In 1934, ' Medford
turned on the heat to win going
away, 37-0. This season, even the
most loyal and rabid Tiger enthusiast
can't see a repetition of that en
counter. In fact, Tornado backers are
having a dlfftcult time seeing a Tor
nado win, even by a lone point. What
betting la going on along Main
street, which Is not much, has estab
lished the Lava Bears six-point fav
orites. Tornado Revitalized
Two-time losers so far and dead
locked once, Bower man machine Is
apparently not In the same claas
with Londahl'a brilliant outfit, which
has run roughshod over Oregon'
finest for more than two years. How-
Tiger Trainer
Coach BUI Bowermnn (nbore) sends
Ills fltjhtlnt; Medford high Tigers
against Bend's Lava Beari tonight at
8 o'clork at the high school stadium.
The Tornado coach states his team
will "open the honk" In an attempt
to hand Bend IU first defeat in 21
games.

Famous for gooaf food)
ever, those who witnessed the Tor
nado In Its savage scoreless tie with
Klamath Falls last week, realize that
It will be a brand new team out
there tonight; a hard -tackling, ex
cellently-conditioned, rock 'era and
sock 'em team determined to at lost
toar Into high after a rather disap
pointing season to date.
Head Man Bowerman stated last
night his team was entirely ready
for Its acid test. Its toughest en
counter of the year. He has given the
Tornado almost a full week's rest to
recuperate from the Klamath battle,
and. announced that every regular
was In top condition.
Will Open Book
We will open the book,
when queried aa to the
tactics Bend can expect.
By opening the book, Medford will
attempt to spring sensational Bobby
Ettlnger Into the clear for a climax
run or two and produce touchdown
nasses from Eldon Grow to either
Bob Wilson or Don Montelth or any !
of the llghtnlng-rast backs. Grow
found himself In the Klamath game,
not only as a Une-plunglng fullback,
but as a forward pa&ser, as well. He
will pitch plenty tonight. 80 will
Jack Bowman when he Is In there.
And, maybe even Ettlnger, who shoots
them like bullets for short distances.
.Upon, the ahoulders of Mcdford's
seven linemen Is placed directly the
task of halting a Bend attack that
hasn't been halted all year. Walt
Lldstrom, considered the greatest
high school end In the state, features
the Lava Bear attack with his
slashing end-around gallops which
usually finish over the goal line. He
has scored seven touchdowns this
season. Fullback Redden leads the
Bend backfleld, exploding through
holes In the Una with monotonous
regularity. Bend'a vicious attack la
developed from both a balanced and
unbalanced line and a single and
double wlngback backfleld formation.
Hears Average 137
Reports from Bend state the Lava
Beara average 167 pounds per player,
extremely light for a high school ma
chine. However, Medford scouts re
port the eastern Oregon tana look
considerably beefier. Medford, with
an average weight of about 178, will
undoubtedly be the heavier team on
the field.
Word from Bend today revealed the
team would arrive In Medford about
noon, coming In a special stage. The
Bend high girls' pep club and drum
corps will also make the trip to Med
ford, 33 strong, and about 100 fans
were expected to accompany their
team.

Years of Intense and bitter football
rivalry will make Its 1937 explosion
Saturday, afternoon at Ashland when
Southern Oregon Normal's SONS face
the Wolves of Oregon Normal In the
feature attraction of home-coming.
Klckoff Is at two o'clock sharp.
Defeated twice and tied once In
three starts. Coach Jean Eberhart's
SONS machine will be gunning for
Ita first win over Monmouth In three
years. Comparative scores and past
performances this year make the
Wolves of Coach Al Cox odds-on fa
vorites to repeat their 6-0 conquest
of the SONS last season. Monmouth
Is undefeated this year, and held
the powerful Oregon frosh and Ore
gon State Rooks to 6-8 ties.
Sons Rested
With an open date last Saturday
following their 31-0 defeat at the
hands of the Oregon yearlings Octo
ber 16, the SONS are fully rested
and In excellent condition for their
big test of the year. Coach Eberhart
has developed a surprise offense for
the Wolves, which will be used for
the first time tomorrow. Southern
Oregon fans expect one of the most
sensational In a long list of sensa
tional games between the two
schools.
SONS lineup will be little changed
from that which has opened all three
battles so far this season. Jack Hud
son, flashy ball-carrier, will be shifted
from full to right half, and Al Simp
son will take over his old fullback
position. At the other halfback post
will be Co-Captain Al Easiest rom.
fastest man on the squad. Ray Nel
son, blocker par excellent, will take
care of the quarterback duties.
In the line, Alfred Plaep will open
at center, Butler, Brace and Sand
burg will alternate at the guards,
Johnson and Carey will be at the
tackles, and Walt Sether and Co
Captaln Ken Schilling will take care
of the flank posts.
riattliy Attacks Due
Both teams are almost certain to
open up with their most gaudy at
tack, both on the ground and In the
air. The SONS will be outweighed
considerably by the visitors, but ex
pect to offset the disadvantage by
turning on plenty of burning speed.
Starting lineup for the powerful
Wolves will probably be Jake Miller,
center; Buck Cgle and George Sul
lens, guards; Dave Saleeby and Ted j
Walberg, tacklea; and Roy Kodow 1
and Olenn Peterson, ends. In the
backfleld. Ken Lunday will open at
quarter; Dave Howard and Anthol
Rlney at the halfbacks, and Floyd ;
McOHnn, 300-pound tine-smasher, at j
fullback.

Wily Rule
Coach Linn Mills1 Roosevelt foot
ball team clinched the Medford gram
mar school championship yesterday at
VanScoyoo field by defeating Wash
ington, 31-0. It was Roosevelt's fifth
straight win to no defeots.
In their march through all local
opposlt Ion, the Roosevelt grldders
have piled up a total of 106 points
to their opponent' 0. Theli narrowest
squeak was a 7-0 victory over Wash
ington earlier In the season.
Weather.
Northern California: Fair tonignt

and in coastal valleys; little cnange

Oregon: Fair in east and cloudy in

Here It Is Friday again, the day Mr.
X. Plckem releaaea his weekly dozen
Jewels of football prognostication.
The master picker should be satis
fied, what with a
m neat percentage
ft of .627 to date,
B ' Kit Vis a n
oon f 1 d e ntlally
that this week
will skyrocket the
old average to
unheard-of
heights.
As he exposes
his shock - hard
ened chin to the
wide world and
climbs out on his
own private limb, i
I. Plckem ferv-1
ently requests all
underdog teams to remember where
they stand and not go off half-cocked
and upset the applecart. All but
two underdo teams, that is, which
Plckem will name in a moment. WJth
fingers crossed and breath abated,
here they are:
Medford-Bend. This Is mutiny.
Plckem prays that he Is wrong. But.
It Jest caln't be anything else. Al
though Medford has Improved tre
mendously since earlier in the sea
son, and although there won't be a
better back on the field than Bobby
Ettlnger, the Tigers will still fall shy
of the power needed to lick the Lava
Bears. It's Bend by a hair, maybe
Just one point. Let's say 13-6. Please.
Mr. Plckem, be wrong Just thla once
.SONS - Monmouth. Another
"glgantlr." Dope means nothing
In this traditional battle, but It
appeirs Monmouth Is too gosh
dnrned big. fust and tricky for
Jean Eberhart's boys. 14-0. I
Oregon State - Stanford. Pickem
wasted almost the entire week on
this one, and today he la still com
pletely In the dark. Joe Gray Is a
great halfback and may -raise havoc
with the Indians. However, after
flipping a coin and learning the
game la In Palo Alto, It's Stanford by
14-13.
Washington" Btate - U. S. C. Upsetl
Read it and weep. El Trojnn travels
to Pullman, Where the Cougirs are
almost unbeataole. Stop Schlndler
and you stop the Jonesmen. Wash
ington State will do that little thing
and win a football game, 10-7.
California - UCLA. Here Is a sweet
spot for an upset, but the only up
setting done will be by Cal's Golden
Bears with the Bruins ploying the
part of the upseteea. California to
win. 30-0, maybe more.
Washington Idaho. Them Hus
kies should finally win a ball game,
but Idaho will make It uncomfort
able. 13-0.
Santa Clara - Marque tt. The
mighty Broncos of Santa Clara will
enjoy their trip to Chicago, also a
neat 14-7 victory over Marquette.
Yale - Dartmouth. Two unbeaten
teams clash In an Important Ivy
league encounter. Clint Frank. Just
about the grandest halfback on an
American gridiron, will provide the
slight edge which will give Yale's
Bulldogs the decision, 13-7.
Princeton - Harvard. Neither has
done much so far. On the flip of
another coin, our last one, It's Prince
ton, 6-0.
Notre Dame - Minnesota. Oh. oh.
You can pick this one.' The Irish
have the spirit but the Oophers ap
pear to have the better team. Ex
ceptionally close, the turn Is: Min
nesota 31, Notre Dame 14.
Baylor-Texos Christian. Baylor, the
south west's number one Ross Bowl
candidate, will take to the air, as
usual, to whip another forward pass
ing team. 14-13.
Navy - Pennsylvania. Defeated by
Notre Damo last week. Navy will re
turn to winning form with a 13-0
conquest of Penn.
What is expected to prove the
most wild-eyed grappling match In
years will be staged for the benefit
of local addicts next Monday eve
ning In the Medford armory, when
Pete Betcastro, Weed's Mad Italian,
goes to the post with another super
madman, Bob Kenaston. the pride 01
Gold Hill.
Also for the benefit of fans, espec
ially those who like their wrestling
tough and to a finish, Promoter
Mack Li Hard has announced there
will be no time limit to the brawl;
neither will there be a referee In the
ring. Ullard stated there would oe
an official on the outside to keep
Kenaston and Belcastro from per
forming in the laps of ringside cus
tomers. Other than that. It will be
a mad. hysterical squabble, witn
Belcastro firing his all In an at
tempt to avenge the terrific beating
he received from Kenaston last Mon
day. Three newcomers will augment the
great program, with Bobby Chick
meeting Red Lyons, 300-pound ruf
fian from Joplln. Mo., in the mid
dle event, and Sailor Ole Olson 01
Minneapolis and Blc Jarbo of Kan
sas, both gentlemen, matching scien
tific maneuvers In the opener.
The last three named will be mak-;
lng their first Medford appearance, i
and Llllnrd states all are wrestlers
of the highest caliber.
