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 battle will
give local bigs their first look at
the Tigers this season, and several
thousand of them are eipected to

take advantage of the opportunity.
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

are a green team, but It appears that
If they ever find themselves and

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,

JOE GORDON; BEEN
STAR EVER SINCE
CHTCAOO, Oct. fl. ( 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. (API
George P. Marshall owner of the
professional football champions of
the world, the Redskins took a free
kick, today at ba.ball and lta world
series.
"We might aa well be plain about
it." he said, "and face the fact.
Baseball has too long a season and.
like laat spring's drew. Is out of
style when fall cornea aroind. They
ought to close the season two weeks
earlier."
Interest In baseball, he added, ex
cept in New York and Chlesgo, died
out long ago.
So saying. Ownsr Marshall picked
up the telephone and barked out an
order.
"Find out," he said, "what the score
is."
"Score of what?" asked an office
operator.
