Tiger - Pelican Clash Here Tonight Carries Conference Interest
MEDFORD RELIES
ON POWER TO STOP
SPEEDY INVADERS
Victory by Klamath Will
Clinch Championship
Huge Crowd Promised
for Seasons 'Big' Game
Before 6,000 cltlznu at the stadium
tonight, this question will be an
swered :
Can Medford high school's Black
Tornado football machine, defeated
once and tied once, generate enough
of Ita potentially terrlflo power to
defeat the Klamath Falls Pelicans, or
will It be stopped and Its mechan
ism sspaehed by the blinding speed.
the amazing grid magle and the sav
age defense of a team that has piled
up the tremendous total of 109 point
In five undefeated trips to the post,
while holding all opponent to six
markers?
The question will be answered out
there on the green stadium turf In
front of the greatest crowd In Med
ford history, a crowd whipped Into
a frenzy of excitement by the proa
pect of witnessing one of the most
dramatic football duels ever staged
between the two schools. Only twice
In the past 30 years haa Klamath
Falls beaten Medford, but tonight
the aggregation of Snowy Quatafson
win march onto the field a decided
favorite to whip the Tigers of Bill
Bowerman. The klckoff la at 8
o'clock.
K. P. Grants Odds.
Bettors, here and In Klamath Falls,
are offering seven points, even mon
ey, to those who like the Tigers'
chances, or no points and odds of
1 to 1 that the Pelicans finish on
the long end. Some rabid Pelican
supporters sre even giving away 13
points to those who figure the Tigers
to win.
Coach Bowerman said today that
his team waa "ready for the ball
game." Further than that, he would
not go. He stated that Don Gillespie
was starting In the quarterback posl-,
tlon because Bill Caples hsd a slight
ly Injured leg, but explained that
Caples would see plenty of action.
'Klamath Falls, already being talk
ed as state tltllsts and scoring-record
breakers, will be outweighed nearly
18 pounds per man by the Black
Tornado, the heaviest team Bill Bow.
crmnn has coached since he came
hero three years ago. The Pelicans
will average a fraction over 182
pounds, while the Tigers will weigh
In at close to 187 pounds. However,
Medford'a weight advantage Is ex
pected to be offset by the superior
speed, of the Klamath team as a
unit.
Fast Field Seen.
The weather forecast for tonight Is
for continued fair, which means a
dry and llghtnlng-fast field, made to
order for those speed-burning Pell
can ball-carriers, who slash through
quick-opening holes In the line after
goln-; through their play-development
hocus-pocus behind the line .( scrlnw
mage. If. by any chance It should
rain, the Tigers would be benefited,
depending aa they do upon power
plays down the middle and off the
tackles.
Both teams are young, and started
the season plagued by inexperience.
Only Angus, quarterback, and Blwer,

Klamath club. Stelnselfer, Ramos
and Anderson, backs; Webber and

In Oregon
are returning lettermen for the Peli
cans. For Medford, only Don Monelth,
end, and Wally Erl, guard, were var
sity regulara In 1037. Returning let
termen are Oene Miller, end; BUI
Clute, tackle; Dale Howard, guard;
John Prentice, center; and Bill Ca
ples, Bob Kewland and Jack Bow
man, backs. The remainder of the
Klamath and Medford teams consist
of sophomores and others who are
playing their first year of varsity
football.
K. F. Can Clinch Title.
Klamath Falls can clinch the
Southern Oregon conference cham
pionship tonight by beating Med
ford, last year's tltteholders. With
victories already chalked up over
Qrants Pass and Ashland, the Pell
cans close their league schedule with
this game. Tonight will mark the
flrat conference test of the Tlgera,
who still have Grants Pass and Ash
land to play. A victory for Medford
will make the Tornado an overwhelm
ing favorite to gallop on through
Ita conference slate undefeated.
Although not knowing Just what
to expect, because of the fact that
Medford has practiced behind locked
gates all week and tho suspicion that
Klamath Falls has been saving tin
real offensive attack solely for this
game, observers of the situation pre
dict that ft will bs a battle of speed
versus power, of razzle-dazzle versus
more-or-lesa straight football, with
both teams blocking and tackling
viciously. '
Tigers Carry Power.
The Tigers, packing dynamic power
in the straight-ahead blasts of big
Louie Thurman. Bob Newland. Bill
Caples, and plenty of break-away
speed In Jumping Jack Bowman and
Bill Plchc, are figured to pound the
Klamath line, and shoot an occa
sional shot outside tho tackles. Tho
Tigers shift In the backfleld, and
employ many spinners and reverses,
though not so intricate a variety as
does Klamath.
Any one of the Pelican backs are
potential touchdown - makers from
any spot on the field, and that will
be the problem of Medford's big and
tough line to keep those brilliant
ball-packers from getting loose. A
Klamath Falls report yesterday stag
ed that Bob Anackcr. 140-pound
thunderbolt, was out of the gnmc
with an Injured hip. Even without
Anacker, the Pelicans will boast su
perior backfleld speed, although Med.
ford's Jack Bowman will probably be
the fastest single player on the field.
Both teams want that "Jump"
touchdown, and because of that, any
thing Is liable to happen. Although
neither club has done much forward
passing this season, they both might
fin the air with footballs tonight
If the respective forward walls throt
tle the ground attacks. It may turn
Into an aerial duel. In fact. It may
turn Into anything and everything.
Huge Crowd Looms.
With all reserved seats sold out
early In the week, general admis
sion tickets of an unlimited number
will go on ssle at the stadium ticket
office at 6:48 tonight. There are
3.200 general admission seats avail
able In the east-side bleachers and
In the grandstand, and room for
2.000 persons to stand along the side
lines. Last year, the two teams battled
to a Ravage scoreless tie In Klamath
Falls. In 1036, tho Pelicans won
here by virtue of a field goal In
the last minute of play, 3 to 0.

Cougars Will Claw Beavers
Howard Jones' Prediction
By Fred Hampson
Associated Press Writer.
Oregon State's Beavers, the chumps of September who became Octo
ber's heroes, will lose to Washington State tomorrow at Portland unleu
Coach Howard Jones of V. 8. C, Is wrong.
Proctor Jones' boys have p 1 ay ed
with both teams and- Howard picks
the Cougars. Howard has been wrong
before and we choose to believe he
will be wrong tomorrow, but there
is warning In his prophecy. He feels
that the Cougars are better than
their four defeats, that they are
about due to win a game, and this
will be It.
.The augury li not very flattering to
a Beaver team that has Just pulled
Itself out, of the ruck: by beating

divers, because anything that may be
said for the Cougars can also be said
for O. S. C. They not only have
Improved but liave had a sip of vic
tory 'c heady nectar which should
stimulate them no end for the quar-r-l
with the Cougars.
But there are angles that make the
four-time beaten pa louse rs look risky.
First they have a tradition for beat
ing Oregon State In Portland. No
W. S. C. team has lost to O. S. C. In
the Rose City since 1019. Second,
Holllngbery's teams usually age well.
This one may be punk but It Isn't
getting any worse. It did a pretty
fair Job of curbing Stanford and It
hobbled U. S. C. for three quarters.
Finally the Beavers are expected to
win, and this season has been dis
tinguished by the unexpected.
Oregon State has come a long way
since Its Ineffectual tussle with Idaho.
The good range line Is nicely mesh
ed with a smart backfleld of Mercer,
the brothers Kohler and Klsselburgh.
And the team they're playing tomor
row Isn't as tough as the one they
belted over last week.

Oregonlans who view Coach Jones'
prophecy for a W. S. C. victory over
Oregon State as a slur should read
on down. He also picks Oregon o
beat Fordham.
Behind Oregon State's victory over
Washington, we are told, was a depre
cating Seattle newspaper article in
which the Beavers were referred to
as a crowd of farmers who didn't be
long in the same ball yard with the
Huskies. This reportedly worked O.
S. C. up to a high fever and resulted
In one more humiliating loss for the
Washingtons.
It makes a nice story and adds
drama and gives the game a touch
of the old Horatio Alger color, but
wo choose to think that Oregon State
won because they had the best team.
Seattle writers never have been
very complimentary to Oregon State.
Why this particular slur should have
helped an upset la not quite clear.
It probably made the Stlnermen mad,
all right, but they won because they
had a football team that played bet
ter ball than Washington's.
