Kenaston and Belcastro Top Tonight's Card in No - Limit Match MADCAP MEAN1ES TO SETTLE FEUD IT REFEREE Bobby Chick Meets Red Lyons in Middle Event- Sailor Olson and Steve Strelich Will Open Card ' Bob Kenaston attempt tonight at the Modford armory what very few grapplera have been able to accom pU&h the second straight conquest of Weed's Mad Italian, rougn-housc Pete Belcastro. The pair go to the post in the main event of Promoter Mack LUlara's weekly presentation of pain and pun lahment In a carry-oyer from lwt week's sensational brawl when Qold Bill's Mad Marine, taking advantage of Pete's turned back between falls, worked the Weed thunderbolt over as he bad never been worked before. It la a rematch, demanded by Belcastro and agreed upon with pleasure by Kenaston. And, to add luster to the already shining possibility that this will be one of the greatest displays of underhand wrestling evor seen anywhere, there will be no time limit to the squabble, nor will there bo a third man In the ring to hinder the maneuvers of the two ace villains. Those were Belcastro's terms, which were OK with all parties concerned Itcf Outside Blng While there will be no referee in side the arena, one will be stationed outside the ring to make sure no alley brails are started in thu laps of ringside patrons, as happened last week. Also, to keep the two toughlcs In there where they belong and to call falls when and If. As for the length of the match, there Just Isn't any definite time. They may go three minutes or three hours. It's to a fin lab. Advance ticket sales, according to promoter Mack LI Hard, Indicate an other capacity house. Fans are warn d to get to the armory u early as possible In order to procure seats. Another tasty dish will be served In the middle event when Bobby Chick, ex-light heavyweight champion of the world tangles with Red Lyons, a SOS-pound husky lrom Joplln, Mo. Lyons will be making his first appear ance here and reports are to the ef fect that he is an exceptionally pow erful grappler who Is Inclined to be a little rough at times. BtlU two more newcomers will mafce their debut tonight when Sailor Ole Olson of Minneapolis and Steve Stre lich of Los Angeles make thWr debut In the opening event. Strelich Is a last-minute substltltlon for Bio Jar bo, who was unable to arrive In Mod ford In time for the match. He has had considerable movie experience, and for a time was a stand-in for Maurice Chcvoller. Referee tonight will probably be , Earl Yonkley, although a iMt-mtnute change may be made, at Belcastro's i Insistence. By awarding w week's j match to Kenaston even though Ken aston attacked Pete between round. Yoakley made himself positively un popular with the Weed maniac. At a result, Pete may refuse to 70 In if the Yoakley person la thereabouts. Cliff DurantOf Race Fame Dies LOS ANOELE3. NOT. 1.

The season moved past brisk Octo ber week-ends Into gusty November, leaving only Bend, the Oregon City Pioneers, and the Tillamook Cheese makers undefeated and untied. Salem has neither a loss nor a tic In Its Oregon schedule but an early season upsetting by Camaa. Wasft.. made It second choice to the unblemished schools of central Oregon, the. Wll lamette valley and the coast country La Orande and Benson Tech Portland turned In victories last week but each has a tie to keep It out of the charmed circle. Bend Impressive Bends impressive touchdown pa rade over powerful opponents repre senting both the east and west sides of the Cascades made It a better look. Inn title prospect than either Tills. mook or Oregon Olty. The happy combination of speed and power gave the Bears an easy 83 to 7 triumph over Med ford. It was Medford's most decisive trimming In years and the Tigers are generally contenders. Coach Johnny Londahl's Bend youths still have to settle the yearly argument with the KJamath Falls pelicans. Klamath's football pros pects bounced back Saturday with a 10 to 13 victory over Pendleton. Com paratlve scores against the aume op ponents, however, give the 3eara a wide margin. Tillamook cracked McMlnnvllle, 14 to 0, and Oregon City approached a big nine conference title by riding ever Oresham, 38 to 0. Astoria Eliminated Salem, gathering strength as the season turned into Its last v;eeks. eliminated Astoria from the unde feated class, 38 to 14. Benson's Mechanlca galloped lnu the leadership of the Portland league with a 30 to 6 win over Washington Grant of Portland humbled Jofler- son, 8 to 0, and Franklin trampled Roosevelt, 0 to 0. Neither Jefferson, defending champion and last year's unofficial state tltllst, nor Roosevelt were beaten In the Portlann league until they ran Into upsetting second ary elevens. La Grande kept eastern Oregon football allvo with a 13 to 0 v'ctory against Union. La Orande played a aooreless tie with Pendleton a week ago. La Orande closes the season against Baker on Armistice Day. Salem faces difficult competition In Eugene, 811 verton and OorvalUs while Tillamook has to hurdle the Astoria fishermen and Hlltsboto. The Lava Bear meet Klamath Falls on Armistice Dsy. Ben son must get past both Jefferson and Roosevelt. Sport Graphs . e .

Vi'iTafli ';J OUT Hnlea Big. significant things happened in the football theater the paat week end. Here In Med ford. It was proved oe- yond doubt that aj tne 1B97 Tigers are wunwuab wv- low the usual form d 1 a p 1 ayed by Black Tor nado aggrega tions. Admitting that Bend was one of the great est high school teams ever 'seen here, the fact still remains Coach Bower- man's team not In the same class with tne finest from Oregon's other sections. On the other hand, wiping away some of the bitterness of that 33-' defeat was the gallant performance of Medford's "flaming sophomores.' injected Into the fray wnen all was hopelessly lost. Especially. Bod stead, Bob Newland and Eugene Miller, tne first two, backs, and the latter a line end. It was Stead, a fighting, half-pint quarterback, who scored Medford's lone touchdown on a gambling lateral pass from Miner. after the end had received a torwara toss from Shorty Campbell. Tnose sophs were not afraid to take chances; they were In there nnng for touchdowns, and they got one. Newland revealed he could pass a football. Although Inexperienced ne Is undoubtedly the best passer on the squad, and needs only a utue more game action to develop Into a fine gunner for an aerial attack, ne la atlll rather wild with his passu. Baylor's mighty Bears in the south west as logical candidates for tne Pacific Coast opponent In the Pasa dena classic, only Alabama and Bay lor are undefeated and untied. By correctly prognosticating six encounters, missing three, and seeing three battles end In dismal ties. Plckem raised the old averaato 633 Saturday. Here Is the box score to date: Picked Won Lost Tied Pet. 73 88 33 13 M Plckem and his Umb crashed tc the ground on the Navy-Penn game, which saw Fenn pull an upset to cop, 14-7, Instead of losing. 18-0; on the Mlnnesota-Notre Dame encounter and on the Princeton-Harvard altair. The renowned prognostics tor called the turn on the Bend-Medford battle, SONS-Monmouth, California UCLA, Washington -Idaho, Santa Clara-Mar quette, and Baylor-Texas Christian. Ties were Tale and Dartmouth, woo and UBC and Oregon Stae and Stan ford. . In the Southern Oregon corner- enoe, the past week-end indicated the return to a place In tne cham pionship picture of Grants Pass, which surprisingly handed the fa vored Ashland Grizzlies a 13-8 detest. Mathematically out of the pennant scramble, the Cavemen can still up set the applecart of Medlord, tneir lone remaining league encounter. The win over Ashland Friday nignt waa a Kings X affair, only the tirat meeting between the two teams counting In the standings. Aaniana won that, 13-0. but suffered a loss of prestige In Friday's battle If not an actual setback In the champion ship race. Overconfldence undouhtediy waa a factor In the Orlrzlles' setback Fri day; Coach Skeet O'Connell admitted as much. However, he also stateo that a rants Pass played real toot ball. So Medford. which can win tne title only by defeating Ashland ana Grants Pass, had better not consider the latter game In the bag. whicn ll appeared to be until the uprising Friday.
