S " tuning up their ''""' 'i V vocal corde In preparation for ihe annual vor- bal squabble to which outfit haa the beat claim to the my tblcal state champ lonshlp. This la a yearly occuronce which can't be helped, and aa In the past there will Billy nulesv undoubtedly be more than one prep team outside of Portland that figures It Is the best In the state. It Is too bau mat Oregon doean't employ some definite method for determining Its prep footbal cham pion. Other states do, with the re sult that all the heated bickering and beefing between undefeated clubs at the end of the season Is eliminated. There have' been many attempts by interested persons to promote a workable plan for the naming of the state champion, but to date- nobody has succeeded in getting to first base with tho atate athletlo association, which would put the plan In operation. Dick Strite, sports editor of the Eugene Reglster-Cluard, came out the other day with such a plan, and It looks like a pretty good one. Basi cally, It calls for the state to be di vided Into four sections, with the four sectional champions playing each other In the seml-flnal encount ers and the two winners then meet ing for the state title. Dick's entire proposition follows: 1 "1. That the state be divided In to four districts, namely, Portland, oastern Oregon, Willamette valley (In cluding Astoria and other coast com munities and aa far south u Rose- burg), and southern Oregon. "9. The Portland and eastern Ore gon No. 1 teams meet In one semi final game, a pre-arranged place be selected (a community that la a hot spot for high school football). The Willamette valley and southern Ore gon seml-rinallsta to play on the ssme date the Saturday before Thanksgiv ing possibly In Salem. "3. The teams would be selected by a committee of high school foot bal writers from each area. To qual ify for selection teams would have to achedule their games with a clause In contracts that would relieve them In case of selection. Statistics would have to be kept on all games, and checked by opposing teams after each game. In case of two unbeaten teams In the districts, these statistics could be used aa a basis of selection. 4. In cae of argument of a short ened season, the prep school football year could start a week earlier than usual. 8. Publicity for the seml.rinsi and finals would be handled by the nrgmor-uuara with the assistance of sports writers throughout the state. ruoiicity. Including wrlteups and Pictures, could be circulated before tha teams selections are made. "8. In semi-final games the net re rolpts would be divided on a 80-40, urinner-loeer basis. The largo share to be given the winning team to help irtray traveling expenses to the fin Is. Stadium rental and traveling xpenaea of teams should be deducted mm the gross take on the aeml-flnal imea Net receipts In the flnsl.. Iter all expenses have been deducted, vould be divided equally between the ilnallsu. resnrdle.s of the result. "7. AU officials would be selected y the footbsl writers. "8. The event, while promoted by the Reglster-Cluard. In cooperation with other newspapers throughout the state, would be under the supervision of the Oregon State High School Ath le.tlo association. The winner would officially b. crowned the state cham pion. In esse of a tie the team with ihe most tmpreraive statistics would ' declared the winner." On paper, there doesn't appear to be any serious flsws In the plan. It really should work, provided the schools cooperated by scheduling op. ponents in their own section and eliminated game with out-of-state teams and Jntrrsertlor.al opponents. Such a plan would make It virtually Impossible for Oregon teams o clash with any others but those Jn their own district, because of the shortage of time. Pans would miss some col orful tnterar-cttonal games, but It should be worth It to have an un disputed state champion named.

M, Krrvlve ii v imiioini Employing an effective leg-strap hold In conjunction with plenty of foul tactics of almost every variety and description, Big Red Lyons cant' back to Medford last night to wallop Sockeye Jack McDonald, two falls to one, In a bruising, hard-fought main event that kept the armory patrons on the edge of their seats for the better pert of 48 minutes. Just as rough, tough and clever aa ever, Lyona grabbed the first and third falls with bis leg-strap ma neuver, after setting Sockeye up for the tumble-producers with choke holds, .hatr-pulllng and groin-punch Ing. McDonald,- making a serious attempt to stay pure, won the second press with his slde-strlpper. It was one of the hardeat-fought matches staged In the armory In many months. At only one time did McDonald fall back on his old battering-ram tactics Juat before he won his fall. At all other times, Sockeye wrestled clean, and he could not cope with the 903-pound Lyons, who made no pretense at doing his atuff legitimately. The red-head's principal weapon was a devastating choke-hold, and although he was broken off McDonald time after time by Referee Earl Yoakley, he still waa able to do enough damage to weaken the ex-loggor for the payoff leg-etrap. Pete Belcastro raved and ranted at Referee Yoakley In the middle event, but all of It did him no good he still lost the bout to Frankle Schroll on a foul. Prankle garnered the first fall In the second round with a giant swing, after which he whammed Peto to tne carpet and applied a body proas. Belcsatro apparently had .evened the score In the third canto when he clamped on his dangerous bounc ing surfboard, but when he con tlnued to bounce after being awarded the fall, the referee hoisted Schroll's limp srm In token of victory, and tne Mod Italian got mad. Pete tongue lashed Yoakley, the audience and Schroll, then atomped off' to the dressing room all heated up. Cecil MoOUl took a two-out-of-three fall verdict from Bobby Wagner In the opening event, In a clean and sparkling exhibition of actual grap pling. Reverse body slams gained Wagner the first fall In the second round, but McOlll came back to un leash a sensational aerlea of sonnen berg's and dropklcks to deadlock and win the match. McOlll's first fall occurred In tho third round. After both boys had thrilled the customers with their scientific mat work, Cecil auddenly fired a sonnenberg that leveled Wag ner. When the latter rose alowly to his feet, MeClIll connected with a double-leg belt to the chest, and Wagner went down again, this time to stay. Neither was able to grab a fall dur ing the fourth round, but In the fifth McOlll again opened up with an at tack of dropklcks, and after three of them landed flush on Wognera chin, the match was all over.
