"Bob." Glitter
Again On Grids
Saturday wu another large day for
couple of former Medford high
laddlea now cavorting on Pacific
Coaat conference gridirons.
The trusty southpaw flipper of
Bob Smith gave the University of
Oregon Webfoots their touchdown at
they blanked Stanford In Portland,
10 to 0, and Bob Olson, left half
back for Lon Stlner's Oregon State
Beavers, sparkled as his club nosed
' mit a, fighting Idsho outfit, 7 to fl,
Tea, it was a fine day for Med-
ford's two "Bobs," especially for the
Smith "Bob.' With only 39 seconds
of the first hslf remaining, be fired
a, 10-yarder to Jay Oraybeal, then
retreated way back and hoisted sn
aerial that traveled fully 45 yards
In tba air and settled In Graybeal'a
arms on the Stanford 15-yard line,
from whence the Pendleton Jackrab-
blt galloped over for the touchdown.
Aa for the Olson "Bob," he didn't
stand out like he did In Oregon
State's 13 to 0 win over Stanford
the week previous, but he did right
mart work. He carried the ball with
hie usual brilliance and tossed some
Bios forward passes.
At result of Smiths exhibi
tion In the Stanford tirr, you
might aay that the ex-Tiger star
la, to data and technically, 50
percent of the Webfoot offense.
Tor it was Smith who accounted
for Oregon's touchdown against
Southern California, again Jut
before the first half ended. He
shot one to John (Buck) Berry
for the sli points, in other words,
of tha two touchdowns Oliver's
dub has made so far this season,
. Bob's forward passing handiwork
haa been halfway responsible for
both.
Bill Capita, local boy attending
University of Oregon and turning
out for froah football under Honest
John Warren, Is waging a stiff bat
tle for a right halfback position,
ad according to reports from Bu
tane la one of the leading candi
dates. Oaplea la receiving red-hot com
petition from a couple of out-of-state

struggle for the starting role
la a tossup.
In listing the most promising can
didates for his freshman team. Cosch
Warren didn't name Jack Bowman,
a climax runner de luxe for the
Black Tornado last season. Bowman,
a leit naiioaok, apparently isn't
snowing up too well, or the failure
to list him was sn oversight on
Warren's part. Regardless of whether
Bowman cracks the football business
at Oregon, he needn't worry, for
bo la a grand track performer.
For statlstlcslly-lncllned grid fans,
tha following figures will reveal the
fine attacking balance the Black
Tornado haa used so far this season
to defeat Weed, Corvallls and dranta
Pass.
On the ground, the Tigers
have moved 743 net yards In
14 scrimmage plays for an aver
age of A.2 yards per plBy. In the

TEST FOR SCHULZ
Dude Chick and El Pulpo
In Middle Event Levin
Will Clash With Speedy
LaRance In Opener.
A glamorous array of heavwelght
matmen. topped by Pete Belcastro
and Hans (Hitler) 8chulx, will con
verge at the Medford armory tonight
to manufacture one of Promoter Mack
Llllard's most super-special grapple
extravaganzaa. -
The opening gong at 8:30 sharp will
send Davie Levin, former world's
heavy champion, against Speedy La
Rance. popular Canadian. Following
this clash, which is expected to pro
vide a great brand of sctentlfto wrest
ling, Cowboy Dudo Chick, ex-world's
Juntor heavyweight title-holder, will
face off against El Pulpo, famous
Mexican muscle-masssger. These two
bouts will be under the Australian
system of six 10-mlnute rounds or
the best two out of three falls.
Then, climaxing one of the finest
programs presented here this year,
the aggressive and unorthodox Ital
ian from Weed, Pete Belcastro, will
take his best shots at undefeated and
untied Hans Schulz, the Nscl Ger
man who hss completely dominated
the mat gome In southern Oregon
for the past month. The main event
will go one hour or until one husky
obtains two falls.
Pete In Great Shape.
Belcastro, the "peepul'i cheros," Is
right now In the finest physical con
dltlon he haa attained In the paat two
years. For three weeks he haa been
tramping the mountains of southern
Oregon In search of the elusive buck
deer; his leg-muscles are hard aa
steel, his wind Is excellent and bis
entire body Is solid and ready for any
onsiaugnt tne German launches.
Proof of Belcastro's superb physical
shape was seen In his bout with Billy
Venable lost week. No slouch him
self, Venable couldn't stand the ter
rlflo paoe sot by Pete, and went down
In two straight fails.
Naturally. Schult also la In too con.
dltlon for what Is expected to be hi
most severe test In this territory. The
niuenta will enjoy a weight advan
tage of obout 12 pounds, and will
probably be slightly stronger In the
sheer-power struggles. Belcastro.
however, will have the advantage In
speed and alp, Both grapplers are
consioereo plenty smsrt.
Psns are looking for a sizzling bat
tle of doubled up fists, augmented by
"barber" holds, eye-gouges and other
low forma of grappling endeavor.
Neither gent wastes time on legiti
mate tactics, and for this reason It is
an odds-on wsger the match won't
come close to lasting the entire SO
minutes.
Newcomer In Action.
Drawing almost as much pre
match lip downtown as the msln
event Is the middle tangle between
Chick, returning after a two months'
absence, and Bl Pulpo, making his
southern Oregon Inaugural. The lat
ter wrestler, a 218-pound giant stand
ing well over six feet tall, la one of
the top matmen In the land. Like
Chick, he Is a clean worker, so the
tussle will furnish lovers of straight
wrestling with a tasty dish.

Major football clashes In the Pa
cific coast conference will take place
In the southern section this week
nd. Three teams, undefeated but one
tied, will risk their title chances.
On the basis of last Saturday's per
formances the risk will not be overly
great for two of them.
Oregon, which tied Southern Cal
ifornia and won from Stanford In
two starts, tackles California, twice
defeated outside the conference, at
Berkeley.
The University of . California at
Los Angeles Bruins, winners over
Washington last Saturday, travel to
Palo Alto to take on a twice whipped
Stanford team.
One of the traditional encounters
of the season will pit Washington
against Washington State college at
Pullman.
Southern California, concededly
the "powerhouse" team of the con
ference, abandons league play this
week In favor of an intorjwctlonul
Joust with Illinois. U.S.C. will be
a top-heavy favorite.
Oregon State, undefeated and co
sharer of the conference's top bracket
meet the University of Portland.
Idaho, after losing a close one to

By Gayle Talbot.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 9. P) The one
engraven memory of the 1989 world
series ever will be the amazing sight
of Ernie Lombard!, Clnclnnatl'a out
size catcher, down and being stomped
by relays of Ysnkees.
Somehow, the scene is symbolical
of the entire series. The New York
Hooligans were not content to best
the Reds four straight,, first with
phenomenal pitching and then with
a breath-taking exhibition of hitting,
but they had to wind It up by
making monkeys out of the National
leaguers.
'Those Bums!"
This town hss loved the Reds and
taken a terrlflo pride In them all
sesson, but after yesterday's final
7 to 4 beating, after having watched
them blow a two-run lead In the
ninth, the citizens filed out of Cros
ley field muttering "those bumsl"
They were particularly bitter about
Lombardl, who probably set an all
time record for clumsiness in a single
world aeries contest. But they also
were breathing fire at the mention
of Billy Myers, the Ill-starred little
shortstop who muffed a toss from
Lonnle Prey on a perfect double-play
ball and set off the Yankees stam
pede In the ninth.
What appeared to peeve the locals
more than otherwise was tha fact
that the Reds lifted their hopes so
high Just before the debacle. If the
Yankees simply hsd won the game
about 7 to 0 It would have been
better.
Crumpled In Ninth
There waa a certain pride In get
ting Itcked by such a team. At least,
there wss no disgrace In bowing to
what even the old-timers now admit
Is the greatest club there ever han
been. But for the Reds to prove
that they were capable of winning
a game; to outhlt, outpltch and
out-fleld the champions for eight
Innings; go Into the ninth with the
ball game In their pockets snd then
fall smack to pieces that made the
good burghers plain mad.
As . mstter of fact, the Yanks
got Lombardl down twice. In the
ninth and tenth Innings.' but It
wasn't until the tenth thst they be
gan to trample him seriously. Ernie,
st 215 pounds, simply ln't cat-like
on his feet snd was over-matched.
It is altogether probable thst Wll
lard Hershberger, the Reds' other
cstcher, who Is nimble and alert,
would have been putting out Yankees
at the plate like a man stsmplng out
a grass fire. Also. It Is likely thnt
he will do most of the catching for
the Reds next season.

like a scared rabbit, and headed for
the mad scene around home plate.
Somebody managed, to warn Lom

dived at DIMagglo. and down he went
again. Ernie had been engulfed. The
world series was Just a painful
memory. The only official protest
was lodged by Coach Jimmy Wilson
In the Reds' funeral clubhouse:
"I don't think that DIMagglo went
around the bases at all," he said,
"he must have cut across on us."
