PAGE EIGHT MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 27, 1339. Sport Graphs Billy Hulen say: I. Pickem Pick Medford, Oregon and Two Upet I. Pickem Is here again, chil dren, with his weekly dozen gridiron prognostications de signed to astound, by tneir un erring accuracy, the nation's keenest football minds. If these same predictions seem somewhat bewildering, think nothing of it. Even I. Pickem Is at times amazed at what comes out of his type writer, and has been known to outsmart himself and win pulenty of potatoes betting in reverse English. Without further ado, here they are and told tight: Medford-Bend: According to Bill Bowerman, If the Tigers ire able to limp, hobble and stagger upon the field it will be a miracle. He Is seriously thinking of transporting his gridders from the bench to the field and vice-versa by ambu lance. Granted that the Tigers re pretty well shot up by In juries, Pickem still thinks they will have enough stuff left to cage the Lava Bears. But It will be a cruclfier; 6 to 0, Medford. Klamath Falls-Grants Pass: If It rains in Klamath Falls the Cavemen will be lucky. On the ssumption that Modoc field will offer uncertain footing, Pickem picks the Grants Passers to hold Klamath to a five-touchdown margin. Ashland-Dunsmuir: Dunsmuir beat Grants Pass and Grants Pass beat Ashland. So, Duns muir will beat Ashland, 13 to 0. Oregon-U.C.L.A.: It's almost loo much to hope for that ihe Webfoott can go through an entire season without loss to those California learns.

HIBBERT OUT OF II Wallis to Be at Center and Grimes at Guard Piche Won't Start But May Play With two regulars definitely on the sidelines for the evening because of injuries and most of the other starters nursing va rious aches and pains, aftermath of the Klamath game last week, Medford's black Tornado moves against the Bend high Lava Bears at the stadium tonight In the blue ribbon gridiron clash of the 1939 local schedule. The kickoff is at 8 o'clock sharp. Coach Bill Bowerman of the Tigers announced today that Harry Thurman, center, and Alclcn Hibbert, left guard, would not be able to play. Thurman has a severe Charley horse In his right leg and Hibbert suf fered a fallen arch against the Pelicans. Opening in the snapper-back position for the Medfords will be Jim Wallis, 170-pound junior. Dean Grimes will be in Hibbert's guard spot. One other regular Right Halfback Billy Piche won't hear the opening whistle, but he will probably be in before the night is over, Bowerman said. Piche's bad hip is bothering him again. His position will be filled by Ray Johnson, fastest man on the squad and state 440-yard dash champion. Remainder of the Black Tor nado lineup will see Moyer and Winter at the ends, Clute and Barrow, tackles; Dale Howard, right guard; Louie Thurman, quarterback; Bob Newland. left half and John Saulsberry, full back. Coach Eldon Cone and 25 Lava Bears arrived in town last night and will take things easy until game time. The Bend men tor announced his lineup would consist of Nicar and Hudson, ends; Coleman and Zelick, tack les; Mayer and Ncland, guards; Glazier, center; Bill Murphy, quarterback; Willard Ferneau, left half; Art Valley, right half, and Jim Byers, fullback. Coach Cone stated that his two regular guards were out of the game with injuries received two weeks ago, but that the rest of the team was in good condi tion. The Bend line, Cone said, will average about 175 pounds, while the backfield, sparked by Ferneau and Byers, will average 16B. Tonight's game will send two of the state's strongest prep teams against each other. The Tornado Tigers are undefeated in five starts, with only a tie against Klamath to mar a perfect record, and Bend has dropped but one game in six trips to the post. Albany defeated the Lava Bears last week, 6 to 0. BELCASTRO PLANS TO BEAT SCHULZ WITH NO REFEREE Pete Belcastro hopes the third time will prove the charm. Whipped twice by Hans Schulz, the methodical Nazi as sassin, Pete gets one last chance to go against the unbeaten Ger man in next Monday night's main wrestling bout in the arm ory. And, thanks to Belcastro's in sistence, the match will be staged without benefit of a referee, and with no time limit. This was Pete's idea. He thought it up all by his lonesome. He figures that. with the ring cleared of all per sons not actually engaged In at tempting to break somebody else in two, he stands a much better chance evening his score with the Hun hombre. His wrestling style, he explains, Isn't exactly according to the book, which causes complications when there happens to be an official on hand to handle things. There will be a referee hang ing around, but he won't step foot inside the ring until one or the other grappler gives up, sig nifying a fall. Then, and only then, will the arbiter climb through the hemp. And when he does it will only be to award the fall. At all other times he will remain outside the squared circle to see that the lads don't carry their rough stuff into the ringside clients. Promoter Mack Lillard, in ar ranging the no-referee match, had to do considerable talking to obtain the boxing commis sion's sanction. The latter group is not overly sold on these blood-and-thunder things, but Lillard talked them into it. With Schulz, he had no such difficulty. The German, puffed up like a Zeppe lin over his seven consecutive armory conquests, apparently has the idea he is a man of des tiny and that nobody can beat him. He agreed to the match in a condescending manner. A fine supporting card makes the coming program stack up as one of the best yet produced here. Dude Chick meets El Pulpo in a clean middle event and King Kong Cox, a 200-pound Negro newcomer and one of the finest in the business, faces Duke Pettigrove in the opener. The latter has appeared here off and on for several years. He is slightly rough. EUGENE HIGH HANDS U-HIGH FIRST LOSS Eugene, Oct." 27.

IIP) The busiest football week-end since the start of the 1939 cam paigns finds four Pacific coast conference battles on the slate this Saturday plus Santa Clara's intersectional struggle with Pur due. Four of the eight conference schools will be risking their un defeated status in league play as the season, already jammed with upsets, passes the half-way mark.

IIP) While the battle of the match makers and managers over the disputed middleweight boxing title stirred up a New York-to-Seattle fistic hum, Al Hostak stepped out in decisive fashion here last night to justify his 46 48ths of the title in a non-title fight. Hostak coasted for two rounds against Charlie (Killer) Coates of Los Angeles and then rapped him on the cheek to put him down for the count. Hostak weighed 160'.i; Coates 166.

Medford Junior high plays Its second night home game of the season Saturday evening, tangl ing with the strong Klamath Falls frosh aggregation at the high school stadium at 8 o'clock. The local team has a score to settle with the Klamathites, as it was the latter outfit which two weeks ago handed Riney Cook's boys their only defeat of the season to date. The score was 14 to 0 at Klamath Falls. The last start for the Medford juniors resulted in an 18 to 6 vic tory over the Grants Pass frosh and Coach Cook is confident the team can even matters with Klamath. The local juniors are leading the Southern Oregon junior high conference with two wins and no losses. Klamath is not a member of this loop. Medford will line up with Ricks and Monteith, ends; Smith and Anderson, tackles; Fleser and Mitchell, guards; Cascbeer, center; Dipple, quarterback; Bar ker and Isaacs, halfbacks and Cliff Jones, fullback. George Harrington will ref eree, Bernie Hughes will umpire and Ivan Harrington will act as head linesman. Sounds Like Nice Place. Omaha, Neb. (AP) Eskimos on King island, giant rock m the Bering sea 90 miles from Nome, Alaska, have a 50-year record of "no murder, no sui cide, no divorce, no quarrel, no venereal disease or vermin. This was the observation here by Rev. Bernard R. Hubbard S. J., noted "glacier priest," who took exception with those who "think of the Eskimo as primitive."
