Billy Hulen says: Klamathites Get Important Test In Caveman Tilt It won't be lonff now until we all know whether Bnowy Ouatafson's Klamath high Pelicans are actually the "wonder team they have led us to believe after three over whelming victor ies against not- so-hot op pon ents, or Just, an other one of those football machines which look like world beaters a g a Inst mediocre opposi tion but are brought down to , earth when fao- run, ni. wth going. , , . The bl test for Snowy's current creation occurs tomorrow night, when Loren Tut tie ehags his Grants Pass Cavemen over the Oreensprlngs for a Southern Oregon conference claMi with the Klamath ites. Tf the Pellcana are a super team, they will swamp Grants Paas under an avalanche of touchdowns. If the Pellcana are Just another good club, they will win all right, but by not more than three touchdowns. Klamath Palls has certainly proved that It has a certain off naive punch, but whether the Pelicans have lock ed grips with a good defense Is a question that hasn't been answered. It Is poMible that Kill Military, Lakevlew, and The Dalles all boasted good defensive teams, but It teems doubtful. If thoee teams did have ; strong defenses, then every prep foot bsll outfit in the state better forget about their title aspirations, because nothing can stop the Klamathites. However, It Is our opinion that Oust ufAon'a gang has yet to face a hard tackling, stiff-backed forward wall, and that when It does it will re ceive something of a surprlee. It Is true that O rants Pass hasn't showed much of anything to date, what with losing to North Bend, 0 to 7 and deadlocking Ashland, 0 to 0, but we have been Informed by sev eral close observers of the Caveman Aftuatlnn that one thing Tut tie hss developed this season Is a rock 'em : snd sock 'em defense. If such la true. 1 Klnmnth PVlls will he tested to the fullest, and we ihsll see what we shall see. While Klamath FnlU and O rants Pass are swinging from the floor In a game that really counts, Medford 's Black Tornado and Roaeburg square off here tomorrow nlnht In a non conference encounter.

The locals, after pushing Hood River all over the fletd In their open ing game last Friday night, were able to crotis that payoff stripe only once, and Intensive offensive drills have been the order of the day this week ss BUI Bowerman has sent hta squad through Its paces. The Tigers are a green team, but It appears that If they ever find themselves and start clicking there will be gobs of touchdowns hung tip. Thank you. Ron Oemmell of the Salem Statesman for explaining why In thunder the Oregon Webfoot quarterback called for a line smash against UCLA with the ball on UCLA's 35-yard line, fourth down and seven yards to go. If, as you say. It was because the head linesman failed to have the box bearer turn the box to fourth down, the Oregon slcnnl caller had a legitimate excuse for pulling the freakish plajp. If the box read third down, It certainly wasn't the players' fault. What a mens there would have been, though, had that occurrence developed an Important bearing on the final outcome of the ball gnme, whtch, fortunately. It didn't.

( AP) Joe Gor don Is without doubt baseball's great eat walking advertisement for mar ried life. Whether or not his "taking the step," had anything to do with his work on the ball field isn't defln- j ltely known, but there's no denying tne i act that from the day he eloped with his campus sweetheart, he changed from just another disap pointing rookie to the classiest sec ond baseman to come down the pike since Charley Geh ringer. In case you haven't heard the sta tistical details, he's handling the key stone sack assignment for the New York Yankees, baseball's No. 1 ball club. He's 34, up from the Coast league by way of Newark, can hit In tho accepted theory of the Yanks which la that you can't field a home run and can field anything and everything in his general direc tion. His single yesterday prolonged the Yank's winning; rally In the series opener. He also clouted a double and turned In the fielding gem of the game full of classy fielding taking a shot from Ripper Collins' bat with his back to the plate to rob the Ripper of a sure hit. Oordon started out this season as Tony Lazzerl's official successor on the Yankee's varsity, which was no mean Job. His start was strictly poor. His fielding was acceptable, but every pitcher In the leaue fooled him on a high inside pitch. So Manager Uoe McCarthy, who can't stand for such goings on, benched him. For a while It looked like cur tains for our hero. So one day, to while away the time, he eloped to Elkton, Md.. with his campua sweet heart In his days at the University of Oregon. Some few days later the Yanks, trailing 3-1 In a bsll game, nominated Joe for a plnch-hltting Job with a mate on first base In the ninth Inning. The rival pitcher serv ed up a high Inside pitch, and Gor don parked It among the paying cus tomers In the left field stand. They put him back In the lineup next dsy. and from that day until he retires to tell the children about It. they won't get him out of there without an earthquake. RAPS SERIES-THEN WASHINGTON. Oct. 6.
