PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 20. 1939. Sport Graph; Billy Hnlen says: I. Pickem Braves Gridiron Warfare With Predictions I. Pickem bounces out of his block-house todny, slightly shell shocked from the effects of the first month of the annual grid war but still able to unload both barrels at a dozen head line encounters. A few more at tacks by underdog teams though, and Pickem will be forced to invoke his mutual as ilstance pact with Henry Mc Elmore and have company be hind the eight ball. Of special Interest to fans to day is Pickem's prediction of the week-ends big upset, named further down in this colyum. So with a last-minute glance at the crystal ball and reports of his special operatives, the prog nosticator cuts loose as follows: Mcdford-Klamath Falls: Mr. Pickem has had a sink ing f e 1 1 n g in his stom ach all week concerning this southern Oregon grid classic. Medford should win; the Tigers boast the speed, endurance and dofensive and offensive equipment n c e fr iary lo wallop their most bit ter rival s but, try as he might Pickem can't get rid of the very unpleasant hunch that the Pelicans are going to win. Perhaps one reason for this feeling is that the Tigers have boen very weak on con verting extra points after touchdowns (only five out of 19 attempt!, to date), and the game is bound to be very, very close. Whatever the reasons for that terrible hunch it simply won't disap pear, so with crossed fingers and hopes thai he is dead wrong. Pickem calls it: Klam ath 13, Modford 12. OreRon-Gonzngn: The Zay.s may give the Webfoots quite a battle, might even score, but Oliver's boys will get over the hurdle by a 20 to 7 tally. UCLA-Montuna Poor Mon tana, down there In the Los Angeles weather. The Bruins by live touchdowns. California-Washington State; Neither team is overly strong this season but the Golden Bears hould be able to clnw the Cou gars In Berkeley, 13 to 0. Idaho-Utah: The Vandals, atrictly an in-and-out aggrega tion, will have one of their bad days and the Utcs will cop, 1 to 0. Oregon Stale-Washington. Those Washington Huskies can't go on losing foreveri t h e r e's too much material hanging around. Oregon State looked bad In beating Idaho, 1 to 6, and Portland, 14 to 12. This Is the week's big upset. The favored Benvors to lose to Washington in Seattle, 13 lo 7. Tennesseo-A 1 a b a m a. A na tional title may be decided in this southern gigantic.

Alonzo COLLEGE PACIFIC, SAN JOSE STATE CLASH T T Oregon Plays Gonzaga, Bea vers Meet Washington, UCLA Entertains Montana By the Associated Press. A game between the two "giant killers" of Pacific coast football, San Jose and the Col lege of the Pacific, is a headline attraction on this week-end's light pigskin program. Both undefeated, San Jose and Pacific clash at Stockton, Cal., tonight in a battle much more significant than just a meeting of two teams of better than average caliber. The game will put Amos Alonzo Stagg and Glenn S. "Pop" Warner on op posite sides of the field for the first time In 32 years. Both Undefeated. Stagg is coach of the Pacific Bengals, who have beaten South Dakota and University of Cali fornia in what likely will go down as the season's biggest up set. Warner Is advisory coach at San Jose State, the team which has won six straight games this season, Including an upset of the University of San Francisco. Two Pacific Coast conference games tomorrow will pit Wash ington State against University of California at Berkeley and Oregon State against University of Washington at Seattle. California will be a favorite to beat the Cougars. Oregon Favored. Oregon State, 12 to 0 victor over Stanford in its only con ference encounter, had close calls In beating Idaho. 7 to 0, and Portland university, 14 to 12. The Beavers will be up against a squad of Huskies beaten three games In a row. U.C.L.A. entertains Montana In a non-conference game to morrow, while the Oregon Ducks, leading the league with two victories, figure to take things ensy In a game with Gon zaga at Eugene.

PASS FROSH, 18 ID 6 The Medford Junior high school football team smashed across two touchdowns in the fourth quarter at the stadium last night to break a 6 to B tie and defeat a heavy Grants Pass freshman aggregation, 18 to 8, before over 1,000 spectators. Isaacs, halfback, scored the first fourth-period touchdown on a reverse over the Grants Pass right tackle from 11 yards out. The score climaxed a 45 yard march that started late in the third heat. In the last two minutes of play tiie locals scored again, on a 20-yard aerial shot from Bar ker to Isaacs, the latter catching the ball in the right flat and shaking off two tacklcrs to reach the end zone. Medford tallied first, in the opening minutes of the second quarter after a punting duel in the first period set the baby Cavemen back on their heels. On the last play of the first quarter Cliff Jones, fullback, shot a 20-yard forward pass lo right end Montieth, who was It IT I'll Til fl - iT'llill c r ft! . n. v? -m ' s - i' LEE changes the HAT-I-TUDEtof Ihc Nation MADK TO STAY SMART-t-OOKING LONGER that's why the l.er ater-Hlrvc is America's fastrxt cllitig $5 lint.

Department Store PAY LES3 AND DRESS BETTER BITTER STRUGGLE EXPECTED WHEN PETE MEETS NAZI What may well turn Into the most bitterly fought wrestling match of the past six months goes on in next Monday night's armory main event, the competi tors being Pete Belcastro, the wild-eyed Eyetalian from Weed and Hans Schulz, the horrible Hun who has yet to lose a local match in six weeks of campaign ing. Promoter Mack Llllard signed the pair yesterday after Bel castro raged and ranted for over a week for another crack at the gigantic German. Pete, confi dent he can whack the Nazi, de manded the match and Schulz, apparently afraid of nothing that walks, readily agreed. With six consecutive victories under his belt Schulz feels certain he is destined to go on winning for ever, a theory not subscribed to by Bolcastro. Pete has many logical reasons on which to base his confidence of being able to put a stop to tne bentuz victory streak. In the first place, Pete points out, he came within a gnat's whisker of doing it two weeks ago, and but for an unfortunate Jaunt through the ropes and onto the hard floor outside the ring he would have tamed the Teuton Terror. Belcastro also claims to be faster and smarter than the German, and at least as unor thodox. Cowboy Dude Chick, latest victim of the Schulz power, will attempt to get back in winning form against Dave Levin in the middle event. This match will see the unusual situation of two former world champions locking grips. Chick is an ex-junior heavyweight title-holder, while Levin held the heavyweight crown for a short time. El Pulpo and Speed LaRance, a pair of classy cleanies, will meet in the six-round initial struggle. downed on the one-yard line. Barker then rammed over his own right tackle for the score. The lone Grants Pass touch down came in the early part of the third quarter. Halfback Morton spun over Medford's right tackle on a double reverse for 21 yards and the score. No extra points were made after the touchdowns, Medford attempting one place kick, which was wide, and two line plunges. Grants Pass tried one line plunge. Use Mntl Tribune want ads.

Bill denied it with fire in his eye. DeCorrevont has been the ob ject of terrific pressure since his first appearance in the frestiman- varsity game last season.
