Medfoitf high fhool'i head foot
ball coach, tho umliible Bill Bower
man, did a OH Doble act today: he
turned gloomy.
Res ton for Boworman'a Bloom was
that he won't have all of his rcg-
ulara In Friday night's conference
same with Grants Pass after all
111 new and Injuries stalked through
hi squad when he thought he
would have an Intact line-up of
first-string regulars In the content.
Don Montleth. fast right end, will
deflnlely be out of the game, Bow-
ermnn announced. The fleet wlngman
has been out of school all week with
boll and while he haa been doc
tored carefully In an effort to con
dition htm for action tomorrow
night, he will not be roady to play,
the coach said.
Frank Jones, left guard, also will
be on the bench, Bowerman reported,
Jones was hurt In practice and Bow
erman said he positively would take
no chances by sending him to the
poet.
Gene Miller will be sent In at
right end for Montleth and Bob
Verblck will return to the left wing
position. Miller has played left end
In the paat three games. Verbtck haa
been on the Injured list but Is now
In condition to resume his left end
duties.
Some of Bowerman's gloom van
ished when he talked about Bill
Ctute, the slashing, hard-hitting
right tackle. Clute Is being counted
upon not only to present a bulwark
of defense but alao to aid materially
In the stronger, more certain offenae
Bowerman has been trying to build
up alt week. !
Tomorrow night's game will be the j
last home contest for' a number of
the squad. It la ei pec ted that Med
ford fans will turn out In large
numbers to give the boys a final
big hand for their stellar playing

The third "champion" Is Solomon
Krleger, a Brooklyn boy, who to all
Intents and purposes had been hand

New York state athletic commission.
Krleger whaled the tar out of Al
Hostak, recognized aa champion In

The commission didn't recognize
Hostak as champion because he had ,

NPTW YORK, Nov. 17. ( AP) Foot-
hall's hoary past will be recalled
Saturday in the season's deepest dip
Into traditional rivalries.
If you are an old blue, or per
haps an old green or maroon or

will count.
Most of the firing won't amount
to much as far aa the national
scene Is concerned, but for the

thousand of alumni every first
down will be in bitter earnest.
Take Yale and Harvard (everyone
else haa) scrimmaging for the 56th
time alnce 1875. Nothing material
hinges on the outcome except pos
sibly the Jobs of Cosches Ducky
Pond of Yale and Dick Harlow of
Harvard.
Yet some 60,000 fans will climb
Into the big bowl at New Haven to
applaud their favorites.
Lafayette and Lehigh will clash
In a series which began in 18R4.
The rlvala have played 71 games in
the 53 Intervening years, meeting
twice a season until 1902.
California and Stanford, battling
since 1892, have one of the hottest
neighborhood disputes that ever made
a turnatlte turn. The Indiana have
won lfl, lost 17 and tied eight. They
will be definite underdogs this week
Notre Dame, putting an tinde

BRILLIANT BOLIDE
SOUTHWEST SKY
LOS ANGELES. Nov. 17. fAP)
Across the sktes of three western
states raced a ball of fire last night,
burning out Into blackness while
airplane pilots and earth -dwellers
gawd In awe.
'The giant meteor, known to sci
ence as a bolide, waa seen In Cali
fornia, Arizona snd Utah, about
9:30 p.m.
In Salt Lake City and Los Angeles,
scores of excited residents mistook
the meteor for an airplane falling
in flames.
Plying at an altitude . of 10.000
feet over Lake Elsinore, Calif., Major
Walter K. Burgess saw the heavenly
object flash hlph past his army
hlrj "like a fiery dragon with a
luminous tail
The light was so bright It Illu
minated the plane's cockpit, the sky
and the earth for a great distance.
There were varied colors, basically
ereen and red. and then rinally the
flameg turned to a brilliant white.
Major Burgess said.
A. M. Newton of the Los Angeles
Griffith observatory reported the
bolide, or ball of fire, was not un
expected at this time of yesr and
others might appear today or to
night, but It was unlikely they would
be so large.
It was cattmated the meteor was
at least 50 miles from the earth
when ita fire died out. The Incan
descent debris of Ita tall, however,
continued to light the sky for sev
eral minutes.'
