Saulsberry, transfer from Jackson ville high and k hard-running back, was ordered by hla physician to sit on the sideline when It was dis covered that a leg Injury, sustained two weeka ago In practice, waa more serious than at first diagnosed. The leg failed to respond to treatment, and It was believed best to keep him on the bench Instead of risking addi tional knocka by letting him play. Four on Injured List.

Ible theory upon which to base any predictions he might wish to make. For Instance, the high-power. Pelicans are not tabbed aa a for ward p a s s I n f-r:- I IMJ A K .. 'Oifr .iJA o u 1 1 1 1. b u $. iA&?i "trlctly terra aggrega tion. But, who Billy Hale knows but what Bnowy Oustafson has ordered his club to lay off the Aerials until tha Medford game? It la possible that Klamath Falls actually boasts a fins air attack, which It hasn't revealed In swamping five op ponents. The same can be said for the Tl gers. They are not considered a pass lng team, but It was an atmospheric shot from Bowman to Caplea which scored against Eureka. The Tigers are supposed to be a power aggregation, relying on straight ahead blasts on the ground to advance the apple, but they have good pltchera In Bob New land, Jack Bowman and BUI Caples, and maybe they are cooking up some. thing these days behind those locked stadium gates. Medford may come out shoo tin via the upstairs, who knows. It Is also the general opinion that t he Pelicans haven't yet been tested, that they have ac cumulated their 105 points against anaemic opponents who couldn't halt an end rnn with n machine gun. However, It Is pos sible that Ashland, Grants Pass, Hill Military and The Dalles are far stronger than their scores against Klamnth Falls would ln dlrnte. The Dalles, for Instance, beat He nd last week-end. 12 to fl, and Bend was undefeated until then. And, Klamath Falls swamp ed The Dalles, S3 to 0. So what? One thing Is certain regarding that Klamath team It can score touch downs. Whether they have been ral lied against weak or strong oppon ents doesn't alter the fact that the Pelicans possess a distinct offensive threat. When a grid machine can manufacture points like Klamnth has been doing. It haa more than a prayer, regardless of the opposition itrength. One of this writer's favorite angles on the coming game, an angle that has plagued him even in his dreams. his supposition, whether right or wrong, that Klamath Palls really hasn't yet been under pressure, while the Tigers haven't been under any thing else but. We are convinced that the Pelicans have been riding rough shod over pitifully outclassed op ponents, and that the Tigers have had to battle tooth and nail for every yard they've gained, with the pos sible exception of the Roseburg tilt. Klamath Falls, In our opinion, doesn't know what It feels like to be smacked until It harts. The Pelicans haven't come up to this game the hard way, through rock 'em and sock 'em opposition that smashes- for keeps. They have had an easy time of It, whereas the Black Tornado has been tested beflre the fires of competition of the toughest variety. Med ford's 6 to 0 tie with Hood Klver wasn't a pink tea party, and the 6 to 14 defeat at Eureka was, in Coach Bowerman's own words, the most savagely-fought prep game he ever saw. Assuming that such Is the case, that Klamath Falls has been wing ing slong dizzily through mediocre opposition while Medford has been forced to literally give Its all In at least two ball games, what, then will be the general effect when the two clubs collide In & game that can't be anything else but downright vic ious? At the risk of seeming to delve too deeply Into the psychological aspects of the encounter, which Is always dangerous business and which Job we will leave to the football -brain' trusters, the answer would seem to be that Klamath Falls, being really blasted for the first time thla season. might become slightly bewildered as the heat began to scorch, while Med ford, used to that sort of thing be cause of past experiences, would know what Its all about and not be tossed out of stride. BOWLING Three Commercial league bowling games at the Medford alleys last night resulted in Bauer Lumber com pany taking all four points from Col year, Montgomery Ward dittoing with Ward's Riverside, and Plche Sports doing the same to CCC Headquar ters.

In the rase of Klamath Falls, they haven't fared anybody near their equal, let alone their superior, while the Tigers have felt the unyielding pressure of one su perior team. Eureka, and one equal club. Hood River. It stands to reason that the Tigers came out of that terrific Eureka battle richer In experience, from being face to fare with vitally Impor tant situations, than Klamath Falls has done all season. The Tornado knows what It feels like to play ball In the old clutch, while the Pelicans don't. Not this season, anyway. They have come the easy way. So much for this pet angle, or theory, of ours. What the final ans wer Is. only the gsme, Itself, can tell. As before stated, Klamath Falls may be every bit as good as the scores would seem to Indicate. Perhaps the Pelicans' five opponents to date have not been the weak sisters we believe they are. In that case, there Is ap parently little hope for the Medfords. But, If those five defeated foes of Klamath are what we think they are. maties, shea going to be a football game. WILLAMETTE FROSH WORRIES VARSITY SALEM, Oct. 30.
