PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1933. Medford Wins 26-1 9, but Tough Weed Team Causes Busy Evening " TIGERS! POWER I TO GAIN I' Californians Fill Game With Action and Thrills Vis itors' Air Attack Quelled A surprisingly tough, well-drilled 'Weed (Cal.) high school football eleven gave Medford'a Black Tornado plenty of troublesome moments at the stadium Friday night before the locals turned on the power In the second half to emerge with a a to 10 victory In the opening game of the season here before an estimated , 1,000 persons. Bo skltterlsh were the Cougars, In fact, that they actually led the Tigers twice 8 to 0 In the tint ejuarter and 13 to 7 at one point In the third heat. The Californians also were abreast of the Tornado once at 19-all In the fourth period at which point the Bowermanttea erashed over for their winning touch down with six minutes to play, Plche rcores Payoff It was Billy Plche, the 15S-pound veteran right halfback, who tallied Medford'a final touchdown and broke up a wide-open, hlgh-wlde-and- handsome scoring battle. From the three-yard stripe Plche grabbed a reverse and shot off his own left tackle' for the payoff. Prior to that game-cllnchlng touchdown the Tigers had marched from their own 38-yard line, with Bob Newland and Ike Orr ripping off substantial gains off tackle and around end. A 33-yard gallop by Plche, on tho same reverse around left end with which he ulti mately scored, placed the ball on the Weed 30-yard marker, and Newland and Orr drove It to the three. The Tigers scored two touchdowns la the fourth quarter, one In the third and one In the second, while Weed tallied one each In the first, third and final stanzas. The score was 8 to 0, Weed, at the end of the first period; T to 8, Medford at the half; 13 to 13, Medford at the close of the third quarter. The Cougars drew first blood with eight minutes of the first period remaining. Jim Paletta, quarterback, Intercepted a Medford pass straight over the center of the line and raced M yards to the goal line. Louie Thurmen tossed the aerial and Pa letta. backing up the line, grabbed It, swung wide to the left sideline and outran the entire Tiger team. Blllotl'a attempted placo kick for the extra point was wide. Play Called Back A beautiful pass from Newland to Plohs was good for 84 yards and a touchdown In the first qusrter, but the play was called back and Medford penalized because of offensive Inter ference. However, the Tigers came right back In the second quarter to get their touchdown and forge ahead when Plche converted the extra point with a place kick. Jim Wallls, 170-pound substitute center for Harry Thurman, scored the touchdown on a sensational Inter ception of an attempted forward pass The Tiger line, charging through almost Intact, partially blocked Pa lette's pan on the Weed 4S-yard line. The ball shot straight up and Wnllls was right there to take it In and ramble the 49 yards to scoring ter ritory. He wasn't touched by a Weed player. Both cluba scored once In the third quarter. Weed did It first to take a 13 to 7 lead when Paletta bucked It over from the one-yard line after two passes from Cavallano to Palettn snd Argyrls gained 3a yards and sov eral line smashes advanced it to the one-yard line. Power Counts Here. Medford's power begsn to assert Itself, starting from their own 40-yard line the Tigers pounded across the goal line In exactly six Plays. Newlend raced 31 yards around right end, Plche circled the opposite flank for 13 yards, Newland ripped off 18 yards more around right end then added five around the same lng to put the ball on the 10-yard stripe, ike Orr. 165-pound sopho more fullback, belted center for five yards, then whammed over right tackle for the touchdown, piclie'a place kick was wide, but the Ti6er led, 13 to 13. Another powerful Medford drive In the opening moments of the fourth quarter, this time for 85 y.rds re sulted in another Tiger touchdown Newland, Plche and Orr took turns ?,Z ' "L "" w,,n skirting right snd for the final u yards Plchs's place kick was snort. and It was 13 to 13.

MEDFORD WRESTLING MONDAY Wildcat VVil son vs. Hans Schulz Joe Smolinsky Dave Levin Billy Venable rs. Stanley Mayslack WILSON EXPECTED TO GIVE SCHULZ BATTLE Germany may have had a fairly easy time of It with Poland, and Mr. Hans (Hitler) Schulz, a disciple of Adolf Hitler and a loyal son of Nazllsm, may have had an even easier battle against Taro Ito and Joe Smollnskl, whom he defeated In his first two Medford appearances, but even the mnafc nwi4miKtiM ini grapple fan can't see the hulking ucrman grappiar warning roughshod over George (Wildcat) Wilson, his main event opponent In Monday night's armory grappling match. The pslr are slated to cantfe for one hour or the nest tvn fnlla mi of three. They'll headline a flne.j piugrain xesturing rimounsxi and Dave Levin, elean -wrestling fmm heavyweight champion, In the mid dle event, and Hilly Venab'.e and Stanley Mayslack. a newcomer, In the six-round opener. It seems to be all up to Wilson whether Schulz. the brutal son of the Reich. Is to be defeated In this srena. Ito and Smollnskl, both bet ter than fair grapplers. have hod their cracks at the tough and cruel German, and both were badly and quickly defeated. With the exception of Wilson, former University of Washington grid stsr, no other cur rent wrestler seems to have what It takes to pin back the ears of the 320-pound Hun. Wilson, so say many grapple ad dicts, is the one gentleman among all the present huskies, who stands a chance to wallop Schulz. It Is doubted by the "experts" that Schulx cna absorb George's thundering son nenbergs and flying tackles and apply hla special brand of dirt to an extent capable of bringing him a conquest. It Is the consensus among many tana that Schulz. once he gets a taste of Wilson's body crashea, win do an el foldo prompt. At least, It is so fervently hoped. The middle event will see a cloan grappler. Levin, facing a laddie, Smollnskl, who doesn't know the meaning of the word "sportsman ship." The opener will undoubtedly be clean as a whistle, as both Venable and Moyslsck are legitimate grapplers. 01 MAGGIO FALLS NEW YORK, Sept. 33.
