Kenaeton's conqueat of southern Oregon'! lateat wreatllng scourge waa one of the moat popular ever receiv ed by thd fana. They stood and cheer ed the husky local product for ten minutes aftei It waa all over. And, wnen Lyons was tiiinuy w m.n- ger from the ring, a plenty sic char acter they hooted and booed the fi-ma.hilrwi mnlA to a fars-thec- well. Kenaston decided to. wind things ud after the two had battled for the better part of a half hour, and after Lyons, by dint of extreme cruelty, had taken tbe flrat tumble with a vicious leg strap, procured immedia tely following a thudding right hook to the groin that left Kenaston grov eling On WIO trpwb. nyu., cooly and methodically, pulled hair, gouged eyes and In general, disgraced .. WRm nf wrestling. He reach ed his all-time foul high .after 17 minutes of punlshmont by ramming doubled flats Into Kenaaton's groin and stomach. The payoff foul punch eame with Bob backed against the ropes, helpless. Lyons shot one two blocks below the belt, and as Kenas ton doubled up with pain, the Jop lln manlao slid In and procured the painiui iog di,iujj. Kenaston, following that tumble, really started to work. For over It niniit. he hammered tbe daylights out of Lyons, driving him to the pro tecting ahelter of the ropes time after time with tremendous swings to the head and aenaatlonal hammerlocks. The end came when Lyons, again throwing foul punohes, clamped on another leg strap. This lime, now ever. Kenaston blasted hie way clear, socked Lyons smack on the kisser, ana ciampwa w. n.n - referee Enrl Yoakley .finally broke them, Lyons was through for the eve irii was utteriv unable to con tinue and Kenaston waa awarded the match.

Chick ended proceed ings 'lth his airplane spin In the fniinwiw, Aintn. It was a arreat match. clean and scientific, with Strellch thrilling the crowd time and again with his amaalng leg maneuvers. Sailor Ole Olson, Minneapolis Swede, took two out of three falls from Bio Jarbo, a clean-grappling newcomer, but he had to go dirty to do It. Jarbo grabbed the flrat fall In the second round with a body press. . , I . .... U jtniilfln't Olson, ennmmi ucvnuoo - hsndle the strong Jnrbo, started punching foul and took a fall in the ikiHi M,inri with a hammerlock. The final shoulder-presa came In the fourth round, with Olaon applying a leg-breaker and body press for the verdict. A near capacity crowd turned out to wltnesa the final appearance, thle year, of the popular Oold hiu marine. Kenaston leaves for the east this week. Football History Shows Ashland Due for Victory X there anything to this "history repeats" business? Is It true that football chsmplonshlps run In cycles? If It's Q true, Principal Ashland high achool can start clearing a space In hla trophy case for the 1037 flmithnrn Cirpann i conference ohampl o n s h 1 p cup. It's In the bag. Ashland de feats Medford In their annual classic here Arm istice day, and that's that. Cold figures reveal that In only two years since 1020, first season after the war that athletics really got up steam hereabouts, has Ash land defeated Medford. In 1021. the Grizzlies whacked the Tigers twice to win the pennant! Exactly eight yoars later, In 1020, Ashland again scored a pair of wins over the local machine to win the championship. Now, eight years after their lass conquest of Medford, It is tho Orlz zlles turn again, according to the stara or sun spots or whatever con trols the outcome of Aahland-Med-ford football encounters. 1 1 to- h wk rim Htlr Bnleav BILL KLEPPER OFFERS RFSIITOIflN AS HEAD flFVJTTIFRMI BUR J UL.ni ILL.

The Seattle executive, who had more than hla share of irouoie curing tne 1937 season, made hla announcement after a letter written by W. CI. Bram- t. - lsH..,,a ha.nh.ll association president, to Klepper, rharglng him with mismanagement, had heen resit at vesterdav after noon's closed session of the directors. W. C.

Down through those IS yeara, it la clear that only about every two and a half high school ath letlo generations are the drlz zlles alile to generate enough power to defeat their ancient and traditional rivals Medford. In between, so state the un biased records. It la nsunlly a victory famine for the Ashlaml era, with the Tigers running wild and Just about aa they please. Laat time Aahland taated Its sweetest football victory waa In 1020 when Jack Bllsa, ex-Univeralty of Oregon star, waa at the helm and Merle Hagen was handling things at Medford. In two games Ashland won 10-8 and 18-12, thanks to the for ward passing arm of Howard Mc Cloud and the fullbacklng of Dick Hitchcock. That year marked en all tlmo low ' in Medford high football hlatory, and was the one and only sesson during which Hagen mcntored tho Tigers. Previous to then, Medford enjoyed an unbroken series of seven straight triumphal seasons over the Griz zlies, six under Prink Calllaon and one under Eddie Durno, the latter coaching In 1022 when Medford cop ped a 14-12 verdict. By Prpw MMfilWon I ' NEW YORK, Nov. 9. (AP Pop : Warner, the maMer offensive atmtt gist of college football, la ready for ( a rulei committee move that will Atrip the defense of the edge he "believe it holds over the attack In the modern game. When the veteran coach of Temple got up at the meeting of the Foot ; ball Wrltera association yesterday, and pleaded for rules changes to I eliminate score Ipsa tires and raise j scoring figures, the coaches and t writers were listening to a man who 1 hog been a leader In building foot- j ball attacks. ; Since the turn of the century Pop j haa been an outstanding football figure; coach of the fabulous Jim I Thorpe and Ernie Nevers, father of the Warner double wlngbaclc (or, as ' Pop calls it, two wlngback) system, originator of a dozen plays that have stood the test of time. , "The defense hM advanced this ' year to a much greater extent then the offense," said Warn. "This If due not only to the more general use of a five-man defensive line b.ut to. the many variations which an offensive team la up against." i The thought that hla own Tempi : team has played three scoreless tiet. ' probably was In Warner's mind when he offered three suggestions to help ; the offeiwe: (1) Legislation to com- : pel the ense to keep six men on I tho line cf scrimmage; (2) Adoption of the professional rule permitting; forward pawing from any point be hind the scrimmage line (instead of the present five-yard limit); and (3) Itpstore the goal posts to tli goal llnea. Lou Little, Columbia coach am! chairman of the rules committee o. the American Football Coaches as sociation, backed up Warner's view, and suggested a solution of current offensive problems: The abandon ment of the huddle system of signal I calling In favor of the old fashioned j quarterback method. "The offense could then vary ita. i strategy to take advantage of the , defensive lineup," Little pointed out. j "But If It Isn't effective, there's not j much doubt the coaches will want remedial legislation." j 4 BOWLING Ashland's first "cycle" wine were hung up In 1921, year of the state championship being brought to the Llthla city. Under -Walt Hughes, the Red and White walloped the Red and Black, 56-7 and 12-0. Medford. that season, waa coached by Hollts Huntington, who later went to Salem where he turned out some great high school teams. Hughea. a hero In Aahland for those twin vic tories, fell two yeara later before the Ravage crlea of his former aupporters when he failed to develop machines that could whip Medford. He was forced to give up his Job. This year of M37 Is the "cycle" year. By past records. It Is the season when Ashland stands up there nnd throws too many punches for the Tigers. But. not really believing In All that business, we wonder whether Skeet O'Connell's teem can do it. We wonder whether they have the reserve power, the attack to crack the Tornado's pretty tough defense. Last season, Ashland enme nllliln an nee of hurrying ulnng the "cycle" year, If tiiere he any such nnlmnl. Doped to lose by a goodly margin, the OrisIlea sorked their ay to a thrilling touchdown In the final minute of play to deadlock the hall game, 6-H.
