Schulz Faces Clayton in Mid
dle Tiff . Piluso, New
comer, Meets Pettigrove
Pete Belcastro, the grappling
gent who last week ended the
seven-straight winning streak of
Hans (Hitler) Schulz, defends his
position at, the top of the south
ern Oregon wrestling heap
against Cowboy Dude Chick in
the armory tonight.
The program will open at the
new starting time of 8 o'clock,
instead of 8:30. It will also be
ladies night, with all purchasers
of ringside or gallery tickets
being given a free ducat to ad
mit a feminine fan.
Schulz, the big German
meanie, steps down from main
event billing to take on King
Kong Clayton, classy Negro, in
the middle event of six 10-min-
ute rounds. In the opener, Ernie
Piluso, 190-pound Pacific coast
light-heavyweight champion,
makes his first appearance here
against Duke Pettigrove.
Action Expected
The Belcastro-Chick main go
should produce a large amount
of wild mat action. Although
Chick prefers to wrestle clean
he is not above forgetting his
lily-white inhibitions when the
situation demands, and against
the villainous Belcastro he will
be forced to toss legitimate ma
neuvering to the winds.
Chick is especially anxious to
defeat his traditional mat foe this
evening, for it was Belcastro that
did what he, Chick, was unable
to accomplish defeat Schulz.
Pete walloped the Nazi after
Chick was beaten by him, and
the thought isn't pleasant to the
lariat-spinning cowboy.
In the middle bout Schulz will
be attempting to get back in
main event circles at the expense
of Clayton, but he may be foiled.
The Birmingham colored boy,
wrestling here for the first time
last week, displayed about every
thing necessary in a great wres
tler, and he is big enough to
match power for power with the
tremendously strong German.

Coquille Top State Teams
By FRED HAMPSON
Associated Press Writer
As the Oregon prep football season enters the home stretch
for 1039, the three stoutest up-state elevens appear to be Mil
waukie, Medford and Coquille, but there is a little room for
argument.
LiR uranae is sun unoeaien in

Pearpickers and Red Devils
looked like the best bets for the
mythical state title.
Milwaukie neared a second
No-Name league championship
Friday by shattering Corvallis,
24-6. The Maroons are unde
feated, untied and scored on only
twice. They have won seven.
Medford, put in temporary
eclipse three weeks ago by a
0-0 tie with Klamath Falls,
roared back into the titular pic
ture by defeating Bend, 34-13, a
week ago and then ousting Eu
gene from the undefeated com
pany, 20-6, Friday.
Coquille, darling of the coast
toyed with Marshfield in a Coos
league encounter Friday and
won, 43 to 0. The Red Devils
have won six straight without
loss or tie and comprise the only
major Oregon team that hasn't
been scored on.
La Grande lost caste Friday
by dropping a 25 0 verdict to
Nampa, Idaho. The game did
not damage the Tigers' Oregon
record of six wins and a tie. how
ever. Pendleton tumbled from
the unbeaten ranks in a game
with Bend. The tally was 13 0.
Klamath Falls, unbeaten, but
practically eliminated from the
titular race by four ties, chased
Eureka back across the Sis-
kiyous, 3413. Toledo won its
sixth without loss or tie.' Philo
math was the victim and the
score. 21-0.

Year's Biggest Upset
Irish Remain Unbeaten
By JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, Nov. 6. U.R
The triumphant march of Ten
nessee's mighty Volunteers con
tinues to feature the 1939 foot
ball season. Week after week,
Major Neyland's powerful team
surges on toward the Rose Bowl
and the national championship,
untouched by catastrophies that
blast the hopes of other grid
powers.
When the dust settled Satur
day night on the nation's field,
three more perfect-record teams
had their escutcheons smeared:
Michigan, Oregon State and Ken
tucky. But Tennessee still was
unbeaten, untied and unscored
upon- in six straight games this
season.
Vols Unscored On
Major Neyland's Knoxvllle
juggernaut has rolled up 139
points, an average of about 23
per game. This is an amazing
performance in view of the top
sy-turvy condition of football
among the nation's major col
leges, due to the levelling-off
process, which is more notice
able this season than ever be
fore.
At Baton Rouge Saturday,
Tennessee capitalized on three
scoring opportunities to blank
Louisiana state, 20-0. It was Ten
nessee's 19th straight victory,
including triumphs before this
season.
But at Champaign, 111., an en-1
tirely different story was being.
viritten, as mighty Michigan
favorite for the Big Ten title I
crumbled, 16-7, before Illinois, j
which hadn't won a game this .
season. It was one of the most I
stunning upsets the gridiron
fates ever concocted.
Kentucky Tied
Oregon State's defeat was
more or less expected, and little
surprise was registered when
the Beavers bowed, 19-7, to
Southern California's Trojans.
Meanwhile, Kentucky suffered
its first setback when held to a
7-7 deadlock by Alabama, which
had been favored to win.
With Michigan blasted, Notre
Dame remained as the only Mid
western biggie with a clean slate
after beating Army, 14 0, before
76,656 fans at Yankee Stadium.
Cornell, pride of the east, had
difficulties in beating Columbia,
13-7. Texas A. & M., southwest
ern titan, continued its steam
roller pace with a 27-0 win over
Arkansas. This gave the Aggies I
a total of 153 points against 16 j
for the opposition in seven !
straight victories this season.

University of Dayton's hard
fighting little football squad
headed home today after con
tributing further to the far
west's long list of pigskin sur
prises by holding the favored Sw
Mary's Gaels to a 6-6 tie.
A 44-yard run to the Gael
four-yard line by Left Halfback
John Padley paved the way for
Dayton's touchdown In the first
period yesterday.
The Dayton boys halted a 36
yard Gael power drive on their
11 and led at halftime, 6 to 0,
much to the amazement of more
than 10.000 fans.
St. Mary's evened the count
in the third quarter.

MEDFORD SLATES
RED DEVILS FOR
TURKEY DAY TILT
It will probably be the unde
feated, untied and unscored
upon Coquille high Red Devils
clashing with Medford's Black
Toinado at the stadium here on
the afternoon of November 23,
Thanksgiving day.
Principal Leonard Mayfield
announced today that, in a long
distance telephone conversation
with Spike , Leslie, Coquilia
coach, tentative arrangements
had been marie for the two clubs
to play here on that date. All
that remains to clinch the con
test is an agreement on finan
cial terms, and Mayfield said he
was confident these could be
completed with little trouble.
Mayfield first contacted Mil
waukie high, whose unbeaten
jnd untied Maroons are being
boomed as mythical state title
claimants, but no game could
be arranged because of Milwau
kie's remaining schedule. Prin
cipal O. D. Byers of Milwaukie
told Mayfield that the Maroons
were slated to play Salem on
the evening of November 22,
and that they had received a
tentative bid from Portland to
appear in Multnomah stadium
on December 2 against the met
ropolitan champions.
However, Mayfield quoted
Byers as stating that if Mil
waukie and Portland didn't get
together on the December 2
3ame, Milwaukie would be open
for a game here on that week
end. Milwaukie's arrangement
with Portland will be definitely
completed by next Wednesday,
at which time Medford will
learn whether to plan on play
ing the Maroons here on the
December 2 week-end.
The Medford players came
through the bruising Eugene
game Friday night in pretty fair
shape. Coach Bill Bowerman
said today. Bill Chite, giant
tackle, broke a small bone in
his left hand and might not gel
in the Ashland game here next
Saturday, and Harry Thurman
came out of the battle with a
.severe charley horse, the coach
said.

Communications
Criticizes the School Budget
To the Editor:
In Sunday's Tribune in a state
ment by the school board appears
some statements that need venti
lating. They explain that the "actual
tax levy will necessarily be a
little higher because there is less j
cash on hand this year to bal-1
ance against the budget." In the
next budget we are told that
they thought it best to increase
"maintenance and repairs of
buildings" and "capital outlay,"
while "there is cash on hand."

cash on hand; the next have to
increase spending to get rid of it.
Then the half truth In the
statement: "The actual tax levy
this year (1939) not the budget
was lower as a total for all
school purposes than any levy
Medford has had for more than
15 years."
Now we submit that the poor
est football substitute turned out
by the Medford system, if he
will take "time out" knows that
"levy" alone cuts no ice, but
only when considered in relation
to the base (assessed valuation).
Any taxpayer, who has been
able to pay his taxes, knows that
it is the dollars he has to pungle
up to the tax collector that
count and also knows his taxes
were higher in 1939 than in 1938
or perhaps any other year "for 15
years."
The valuation was Increased
as much as 50 per cent and in
many instances more. I have
before me tax receipts with as
sessed values, rate and tax for
1938 and 1939 as follows:
1938 $2,590 rate 20.3 tax,
S52.58.
1939 $3,850 rate 15.8 tax,
$60.83.
Or an actual INCREASE, of
nearly 16.
This wasn't much reduction,
"made possible by the large
amount of cash on hand."
How soon will our public ser
vants quit trying to fool the peo
ple and begin to put their cards
on the table?
We realize that this kick will
evaporate in thin air, but maybe
it will cause a few voters to go
to the polls next school election
and register a protest that will
count.
Between the city budget com
mittee and the school commit
tee, taxes are mounting too fast.
Thanks to good state government
and a good county budget com
mittee, we are getting some re
lief. Respectfully,
