There are a lot of laughs con talned In many all-atar selections, screwy placing of players and Leav- 1 rig-off of others that are funny as beck. If you are not directly In volved and can view the whole thlna as a spectator. For instance, one of the greatest backs ever produced on the Pacific coast, California's Vic Bottarl. was not named on many of the better-though t-of All-Amerl can aggregations. The name of Howie Weiss, Wisconsin back, hasn't graced a single All-American first team so far, yet he la the boy every professional team In the country Is hot after. And, have you ever heard of Paul Kelt, whom competent pro scouts call the best lineman in America? At the risk of seeming to commit treason, we call attention to several highly peculiar, and laughable, facts about the all-star elevens named In this territory. Including the All- Southern Oregon conference aggre gatlon of The Mall Tribune, which was determined by a poll of coaches and writers. Dob Verbtck, Med ford's left end, Is called by hit coach, BUI Bower man, the greatest wing man he ever saw In high school football, yet Verblck made only the all -conference second team. This Is not meant to belittle Bedford's Don M o n t e 1 1 h and ' Royal Mooers of Grants Pass, -first-team nominees, both of whom performed brilliantly all year. Yet, It does teem like Ver- ' blck should have been on that first team, especially after re celvlnjr. such a fragrant bouquet from his mentor. Or ants Paas' Cavemen selected their a 11-opponents team and, amus ingly, didn't mention George San ders of Roseburg. Yet, the Roscburg left halfback, who made local fans and Tiger players wonder who this guy Baugh is, was chosen by the Tornado on Its all-opponents team as the outstanding back of all the opposition. The Klamath Falls Pelicans se lected an all-opponents team, and an all-conference oppononts team. Charlie Warren. Ashland quarterback, was named to that post on the Pelicans' all-opponents eleven, but failed to make 'their all -conference opponents club: In other words. War-1 ren was selected as the best quarter- baric among ALL the quaiterbacks j 'Klamath played against, but wasn't named the finest at the position among the conference signal callers. That's really one for tho book. Tea, there are many things unique, to say the least, about these all-star selections, but the prize screwball all-goofy team seems to be that named by our own Med ford high grlddcrs when they purportedly chose the best players they played agnlnst all season. We will turn the story over to Asahel Bush of the Klamath Falls News-Herald, and let him tell It as he did In his column recently In commenting on the Black Tor nado's nil-opponents team, Asahel had the following to say: "It Is enlightening to learn what high school grldders the M eel fords considered most capable at their re spective positions of nil those they played ngalnst this fall. It Is par ticularly enlightening. If not actually entertaining, to discover that among that number la listed Lldstrom of Bend, a win man. "Wait Lldstrom, an end, is a line football player, prohihly as fine ts ever filled his post for the Bend Lava Bcnrs. His defensive play, his paw -snatching end his bsll-carrylnc on end-around maneuvers contrib uted heavily toward the Deschutes county eleven's smashing defeat of the Klamath Pelicans t year ago Armistice day. "This past fall Walt Lldstrom held down an end berth for the Univer sity of Oregon Fnh and was a starting regular with the college team until an Injury cut down hit playing capacity, lie might have got home to Bend for Tliank-'iilvlnfl, but he certainly wasn't there, not even In the grandstand, the day the Tigers edcd out their closest, emlont victory of the season over the Lavt Bears. "In behalf of the bewildered Black Tornado, It Is only fair to admit there wna another LlriMrom In the Ufiicl Unoup momentarily the eve ning a mrnth or to ago, on which the Tiger and the Bear collided. "He was Hoy Lldstrom, a fresh man, and he mb.Mltutrd for Oeorge Redden when the Bend fullback and captain woi helped from the field for the flrtt time In hit tout yean of high school football. Roy Lldstrom gave a good account of hlmsrlf- at fullback but he wasn't In the game lone enough to achieve a l rKansans rair FEUDING FAMILY OUT TO REVENGE HER DEFEAT Grappling Program at Arm ory Will Pit Brothers Little Brother Mike Meets Kelly In Opening Match Before an expected capacity crowd of ladles ntghters in the Medford armory tonight, the Brothers Brltt tangle with the Brothers Jonea In one of Promoter Mack Llllard's finest wrestling presentations of the year The card, figured to be a blood and thunder affair, gets under way at 6:30 sharp. To all ticket purchasers will be given a free one to admit a feminine grapple fan. Two-thirds of the program will see the Jones boys colliding with the Brlti. boys In an old-fashioned family feud, the likes of which seldom oc cum anywhere but In the Ozark mountains of Arkansas, home of the Jcuea family. Having been born and reared In the hot bed of family feuding, and consequently well versed In all the tricks of auch a trade, the Jones brothers are expected to make Things very unpleasant for the Brltt duo, who have not had much ex perience In such golns-on. It will be Floyd Brltt versus Tony Jones In tho one-hour main event, i match born last week under con dltlons which make It a sure-fire grudge squabble. The Brltt person had Just finished fouling Little Brother Mike Jones Into defeat when Big Brother Tony, all 300 pounds of him, decided to chastlce the guy who treated Mike so rough ly. Tony walloped the hateful Brltt on the back of the neck, challraired him to a grapple duel and Brltt was forced to accept the bid when Pro moter Llllard made It clear that, unless he did, he wouldn't wrestle at all this weok. The match Is expected to soil! plenty of red corpuscles, although many fans doubt whether Brltt's corpuscles are red. Tony, big boy of the three Jonea brothers, looks like a barrel, but wrestles with as much expertness as any matman yet to appear here. He Is Inherently clean workman, but what he will do when Brltt opens up with his foul arm-Dreaker tactics Is another thing. rons nope it will be considerable In the center bout, slated for six io-minute rounds, Alvln Brltt. for mer Junlor-heavywelght chnmnlon. takes on Brother Tuffy, smaller than lony but several degrees toucher Brother Alvln was sent for by Floyd so that he could be In Floyd's corner during the main event. Thus, If Al- vin u all in one piece after Tuffy gets through with him. he win sec ond Floyd. The six round opener will sea i.iu tlo Brother Mike Jones clash with Spider Kelly of Oakland. Cal a clean and sclentlflo wrestler. Mike, like his two older brothers, Is strictly a legitimate grappler until forced to be otherwise. This match should pro vide a tasty dish for customers who like their mat activity produced on the up and up. CY CRUST PREVENTS SKIING ON MOUNT HOOD TTMBERLINE LODOB. Mt. Hood. Dec. 13.
