Cowen Bill nwrmm ill prevail itUUft W ail i-wfc ON MONDAY LINEUP AT Tuffy, Tony and Mike Jones, known to the grappling world as the Arkansas Scufflers, make their first Southern Oregon mat appear ance In the Med ford armory next Monday night on a sizzling program which Promoter Mack Llllard be lieves will be staged before one of the largest crowds of the year. With ladles' night In effect again and the nationally-famous reputation of the Ozark mountain brothers whipping local fans Into various stages of ex citement, the promoter reported that a sellout house was practically cer tain. The actual lineup of battle will see Frank le Schroll tangling with the 190-pound Tuffy In the one hour main event, Cecil McOUl clash ing with the 205-pound Tony In the middle affair, and Floyd Britt match ing holds with the 185-pound Mike In the opener. It la reported that the Scufflers, all be-whiskered guys, are extremely j versatile, patterning their ring tac- 1 tics along the lines of their oppon ents. If so, the bouts Involving Mc OUl and Schroll should be clean and scientific, while the Brltt versus Mike Jones go should be a knock-down and-drog-out mad house. Brltt Is no angel, and would rather gouge ono eye that win e, dozen matches by straight mat work. ja III I U BE PORTLAND, Dec. 2 (AP) Port- J land high schools, barred from com petition with members of the State Athletic association for declining to accept the nine term ruling, elimi nated scholastic requirements for athletes today and lowered the age limit from 30 to 19 years. El don Jennie, director of physical education, explained the regulations had been In effect for two months but had not been Included In the athletic code. "Participation Is Just aa Important Tor the poor student aa the good one," the director said, "even though few poor students are sufficiently proficient to earn a place on first teams. "We do not require a boy to play football In order to take a course In algebra. There la no reason why a boy should be required to pass algebra In order to play football." The Portland schools were not per mltted to compete In last winter's state basketball tournament because they allowed youths In their ninth or more terms to play. If a student falls to do satisfac tory work, a counsellor may advise him to drop a subject or discontinue sports. MRS.

Pickem while the famous grid prognostlcator was daz edly wandering over the coun try s 1 d e, have positively refused to have anything more to do with this business of naming footbal winners, the bruised and bat tered Mr. Pickem la forced to again make his appear ance today, much t rtcalnst his wish c-b. For two weeks M. Pickem roam Wily Rules. ed, nobody knows ttlnic, Lar;MliiK incoherently that he had finally picked an upset. That was right after Washington surprised Southern California, 7 to 6. and for many days afterwards the screwball dopes tor was lost to the world which Knew mm. Aitnougn ricicem nas re turned, his whereabouts during those Ltwo weeks Is still a mystery. He Is utterly unable to recall wnere he was or what he did, but It Is ex pected that complaints against him will be coming In from different points In the nation pretty soon, which will at least reveal the direc tion and seriousness of his vagrancy. It Is not known why Plckem'a trio of substitutes refuse to continue their amazlnfflv accurate o red let Ions. Thev will elve no reason: in fact they won't even talk about It. They simply turn down their thumbs whenever the subject Is mentioned, and walk away. In a -statement which Pickem said he didn't want published, the famous plckster scathingly remarked that "It Is my belief that the three gentlemen, after! picking 12 out of 13 the first week j and only 6 for 10 the second Sat urday, are afraid another attempt will see their average sink completely from sight." Thus, forced Into & position from which he cannot extricate himself, Mr. Pickem again goes to the prog nosticating post for the one and only big encounter to be played tomorrow: Notre Dame's fighting Irish versus the University of Southern California Trojans In Los Angeles. Pickem is happy, if It could be called by that name, that there la only one gamr of local Interest being played. "Only one game, only one miss," ha says-. Here It Is, and It Is too bad th fellow hasn't nerve enough to bic' up - his prediction with what Ii takes: NOTRE DAME-USC. They are call ing this season's Notre Dame team the grentest tn the nation, and maybe it Is. USC, twice defeated, la the rank underdog, and on paper doesn't have a chance against the Irish. But the game la In Los Angeles. Notre Dame Is traveling a long dis tance, and there la no "dope" when these two teams play. Hence, I. Pickem, after long and careful study of the pear market in Pago-Pago, picks the Trojans to kick over the traces and emerge as a truly great football team by walloping the South Benders. 13 to 7. Whoopee, what a long-ahot wager that would be If Pickem would wager, which he won't. TOP FLIGHT GOLFERS SEEK AUGUSTA PRIZE AUGUSTA.

To choose the best from the thous ands of college men who played foot' ball this year the United Prcts sought the votes of coaches, sports writers on newspapers and scouts. Toward the end of the season a call was sent out for aU-Amerlca nominations, and from all parts of the country the names rolled In. Along with the nominations came reasons for making them and specific games and playt In which the players had excelled. Then the nominations were at tached tb ballots and sent back to coaches, scouts, sports writers on newspapers and United Press foot ball writers from the Atlantic to the Pacific. Each man was asked to choose first, second and third teams. A point system waa devised for votes on the first, second and third teams and under that system the most points any one player could get waa 360. The players with' their qualification and the number of points th?y re ceived : Ends Louis Daddlo, Pittsburgh.. 217 points. This year he scored one touchdown, kicked 18 points after touchdown and two field goals. He Is the crashing type of end and he stood out on the Pittsburgh team, whcht many persons consider one of the greatest In the country despite Its two defeats. John Wysockl, Villa nova, 189 points. Many who voted said he was not as great a player this year as he was last year when he waa an end on the United Press all-America team, but he still was good enough to beat out Holland of Cornell who got 178 points and Wyatt of Tennessee who got 168. Wysockl Is a smar.t. cat-like player. a line pass receiver and a genius on end-around plays. Tackles Joseph Belnor, Notre Dame, 268 points. Belnor has been outstanding In the Notre Dame line for the last two seasons, and one of the great performances he turned In this year 1 was against the Army when It seemed that the cadets were about to brush tho Irish clear of the field. Alvln Wolff, Santa Clara. 187 points. FINAL CLEARANCE OF OIL HEATE Save $10.00 On Each Heater 5 Styles To Choose From U7 gQUIH CXSJRAL A giant, standing six feet, two inches tall and weighing 220, he 'a hailed as the great lineman of the Pacific coast. Completing three years of outstanding football, Wolff la fast enough, with alt hla size, to give his ends a good race down their field under punts. Guards Ralph Helkkinen, Michigan, 336 points. His fame apparently has spread everywhere, for he got voted from north, east, south and west. Coaches were particularly enthusias tic bout him. On defense he has a trick of jamming the opposition line and opening a hole through which a teammate goes to nail the ball car rier. Bob Lee Suffridge, Tennessee,"l40 points. A sophomore, he squeezed Into the first team by beating out Smith of Southern California who has 123 points and Bock of Iowa State who had 103. Great at diag nosing plays, Suffridge excelled in blocking kicks and knocking down Center Charles Aldtich, Texas Christian, 331 points and It wasn't even close. Dan Hill of Duke, with 160 points, gave Aldrlch the little competition he did have. Charles Brock of Neb raska, a great football player, fin ished third and would honor any ell- America team. Aldrlch called defen sive signals this season and Inter cepted three passes. uurterhack David O'Brien, Texas Christian, 350 points only 10 short of perfect. A few scattered first team votes went to Lansdel of Southern California and Sltko of Notre Dame, but O'Brien came closer to being a unan imous choice than anybody else on the first team. Despite hla weight- only 152 pounds he Is durable and good ball carrier. But passing Is his best weapon. He completed 93 passes for 1,609 yards this season. Halfbacks Parker Halt. Mississippi, 191 points. Coaches, particularly, appreciate him, and most of them went down the line for him In the voting. Hall's record speaks for Itself.

Stand ing six feet, one Inch tall and weigh ing 303 pounds, ha waa the leading I scorer of the Southeastern conference with 73 points. Eric Tipton, Duke, 151 points. He waa closely pressed in the voting by MacLeod of Dartmout and Cafego of Tennessee. Tipton, one of the great eat kickers since the days of Harry Klpke, can pass and run, too. His beet performance of the year was against Pittsburgh last Saturday when he kicked a soggy, heavy ball with such accuracy that he, kept the Panthers back on their heels all aft ernoon and enabled Duke to win the game. Fullback Marshall Goldberg, Pittsburgh, 360 points. He was shifted to fullback on the Pittsburgh team this year be cause of his great ability as a blocker. His true greatness came out when he was Injured, and he played the Peno State and Duke games wearing a six-pound steel brace on hla knee. A member of the United Press' all-America backfield last year, Goldberg rounded out three years of sensational playing. TO PIT BEST NEW YORK, Dec. 2 P) There Is great excitement on the 42nd street campua these days for "them Jlnts" are going to tangle with Conrade George Preston Marshall's Washing ton come Sunday at the polo grounds for the eastern championship of the J pro league. The game also will decide who Is the best forward passer In the world, Samuel Adraln Baugh, the redskin aerlallst, o rEd Danowskl, the old Fordham Blue who pitches for the giants. They are neck and neck for the league passing title. Fans are conditioned during college season to think otherwise but they are no passers better than these two. Danowski leads the national league. which harbors few soft touches, with an average of .547 and 58 com pletions for 819 yards, a fair piece of territory. Baugh is a bit behind.. His average Is .508 with 58 completions for' 812 yards. He has been hampered by bad foot and an Injured shoulder this season but now he is fit as the proverbial cello. i i Easily Heats 2 to 4 Rooms!
