Bush Well-drllled and colorful football machines of Medford and Ashland Junior high schools, each bent on grabbing the first of their two-game season series, go to the post at the (tadlum tonight In one of this town's "biggest" grid encounters. The kick ptt Is slated for 8 o'clock sharp. Previous scores against other op- nenU, and analysis of the respec-msn-power of the two clubs, in dicates the battle Is a veritable toss VP In every respect. Last season the teams split even In two games, Ash land winning the first, 12 to 0, and Medford copping the aecond. 42 to 0. Neither outfit will enjoy a weight advantage, and both have developed sensational running attacks. In Cato IWray, Ourt Hopkins and Bill Wall, foach Oe-ac Harrington of the Med fords has three fine ball-packers to perata bonlnd a sturdy forward veil. Fullback Rush Is the spear head of the Ashland attack, which features elaborate ball-handling and touch hocus-pocus. Because of that well-known foot tall magle which Coach Earl Rogers nnually imparts to his Ashland ag gregation, the local team has spent the entire practice week In drills Resigned to baiter the Llthlan ree-tle-dazBle. Coaoh Harrington has also tpent considerable time polishing the Mtack of his own team. The game may develop Into an aerial duel, tlthough both teams are pnrtlal to running plays for their ground-gaining and possible touchdowns. The Medford Juniors, In their last ftart, knocked over the heavily fa vored Central Point high aggregation, jl to 7, while Ashland whncked sVltamont, 6 to 0.

McCurley doesn't know how ne received the Injury, which at first was believed to bo only a bruise. Other backfleld cripples are John Sauls berry, fullback, out with a bad leg; Bill Plche, right half, ditto; Shorty Campbell, left half, who has a trick ankle but who may be able to see service for a few minutes; and Hod Stead, who spent yesterday In bed with the flu. He probably won't be sufficiently recovered to make the trip.

Starting the Eureka game will prob ably be Gillespie. Capita. Bowman and Newland, Bowerman stnted. One slight ray of hope Is contained In the fact that all linemen are In good shape. The mentor said he planned to open with Prentice at cen ter, Howard and Hoffman at the guards, Clute and Barrow at the tack les and Verblck and Montelth at the wtng posts. Little Is known regarding the strength of the California team, but Bowerman recalled that, for the past two years. Eureka has been the Tor nado's toughest opponent.

TELEPHONE H00 Sport Graphs . . . Billy Hulen says: Murdock Should Get Due Credit For Taking Pete Pete Belcastro Is not alone In be lieving that popular Paul Murdock was blessed by Lady Luck In whip ping him on .'aat M o n day night's tremendous grap pie program. Many of the more rabid wres tle rooters here abouts are of the opinion that Murdock'a sensa tional victory was produced almost entirely by Pete's m 1 s f o r tune In missing a vicious d r o p k 1 ck at a critical moment, Billy Hulen -and not through any exceptionally great mat work on the part of Murdock himself. While we do not desire to make an Issue of the thing, having stuck our neck out enoxigh at various times to teach us a lesson, we would like to remark that It Is about time Mr. Murdock la accorded his due credit. The handsome youth from Texss has an unbroken string of Medford victories, which must mean something, and his performance In the Belcastro bout left little to be desired as regards ga men ess, glit tering scientific tactics, and ham mer and tongs activity. He proved beyond the shadow of a doubt that he can assimilate practically all the dirty stuff Belcastro Is capable of manufacturing, and even though he was undoubtedly In a rather bad way when Pete missed that drop- kick and hung himself over the ropes, he still had what It takes when It came to applying the payoff and climax hold, the thunderbolt. Most guys, nfter hetng on the receiving end of the BHcnMro brand of meanness for 2ft min utes are utterly Incapable or any decisive action, but Paul had enough vitality left to grab the Mad Italian and wham him Into MihmlaMon with his thunderbolt maneuver, a hold, by the way, which lnt. so hard on the re cipient's head as It Is on hi nnkles. Murdock also handed Mr. Helcnstro a considerable heating during those 2ft minutes, o we can't understand why Caul's win Is rated surh an amaz ing piece of luck by certain lorn I mat bugs. True, It wns an upset because Pete ts nearly always the favorite to win. hut It wasn't the startling form re versal some persons believe. Mur dock Is a plenty good hoy, and with his thunderbolt working Is always dangerous. Anyway, and regardless of whether Pete's loss was uncalled for, the two gents meet again next Monday eve ning In a rematch, with an outside referee In there, and .we'll find out for certain Just how the pair stack up. In our humble opinion, Murdock stands a good chance of repeating SERVICE STATION STH and FRONT E0RDS0N SALES nd SERVICE bli conquest. The Texan Is some thing of sn opportunist; being able to take advantage of the breaks, and if Pete makes any mistakes or misses any mora dropklcks the- match Is liable to end like, the last one. We don't say it will, but It can. ' It was a pleasure. Indeed, to see and hear that huge crowd go goofy as great match after great match was staged In the arena last Monday. It whs probably the finest program, from top to bottom, held here this year, and ao well was It received by the hundreds of ladles present that Muestro Ullard has extended the ladles' night business. So, for every customer purchasing a ring side or balcony ticket, one free ducat will be given to admit a woman fan. It Is expected that the Murdock Belcastro return brawl will make It standing room early. - The other four grap piers on the card have merely 'exchanged oppo nents from their last Monday's line up. . Buddy Knox meeting Monte LaDue In the middle engagement and Charley Csrr facing Leo Kar linko In the opener. This Karllnko Is certain to prove one of the most hated hunks of mat flesh to ever climb throxigh the armory ropes. He looks like Boris Knrloff's twin, and his wrest! inff" la confined to at tempting to take his opponents apart by any means but fair. He really Is a mean customer. 4 GUESS FLAG RACE NEW YORK. Oct. 13. (AP) The limb on which the "experts" crawl at the beginning of every baseball season turned out to be a pretty stout piece of wood for 33 of the writers during the 1938 campaign. That number, of the 60 who par ticipated In the annual Associated Press' pre -sea son pennant poll last April, picked the New York Yankees and the" Chicago Cubs to win their reaectlva league championships. Only two of them, Charley Segar of the New York Dally Mirror, and Sid Feder, Associated Press baseball edi tor, "hit the nail on the head" again in picking the Yankees In four straight for the world series In the Associated Press series poll last week.

TO HEAVY TITLE IN T TITLE SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 18. (AP) If directors of the Golden Gate expo sltlon can meet the undisclosed terms of Promoter Mike Jacobs of New York by December 20, Heavy weight Boxing Champion Joe Louis will defend his title In a bout on Treasure Island, the exposition site, next April.

P) Everett Bowman of Hillside, Ariz., winner of the world's all-around championship at the rodeo last yesr. streaked down the arena In the calf-roping contest at Madison Squaro Garden last night. Hooves of thd calf and hla pony thudded along, his lasso whipped the air. Then he tossed the rope, one end of wh lch was attached to the saddle. But Instead of getting the calf, he roped a railing In front of a row of box seats. Down came 10 feet of rail with a crash. The calf galloped off dis dainfully. Bowman was unhurt but his prtde suffered severe lacerations and contusions. OSTON COLLEGE DEFEATS DETROIT BOSTON. Oct. lb.

Raving reached the pinnacle of his profession, Durocher was so happy he barely could talk faster thsn 1200 words a minute when he faced tne metropolitan baseball writers yester day to receive congratulations on his new Job with the BrooMyns. His Joy was tempered by the fact he had to be back In West Spring field lodsy to attend the funeral of his father, a rabid basebsll fan, who died Monday night. Durocher, fine, fighting shortstop since he broke In with the Yankees 11 years ago, Is so happy he could bust at the prospect of managing a seventh-place ball clula for one year. If he Is fortunate and shot with luck, maybe his contract will be renewed for 1940. But Burleigh amai raBr I Bvrmms l r t aa m r - CAN'T BUST'EM V UNION MADE WORK CLOTHING dose, tight-weave fabrics.
