Billy Hulen sayi:
I. Pickem Calls
Medford, Oregon
And Notre Dame
In order to get In his whack
at several important Turkey Day
grid clashes, Mr. I. Pickem is
releasing his weekly dozen ultra
special selections today, instead
of Friday. Not all the games
In this weeks list are being
played on Thanksgiving, but
some of them are and the master
prognosticator Just couldn't pass
up the opportunity of tamng nis
best shots at them.
This Is the time of year when
traditional battles are as plen
tiful as upsets have been this
season, and as a result the games
are getting harder to pick. On
the other hand, J. Pickem is get
ting better as the campaign
wends it merry way to the bitter
end. Everything considered, It's
about a tossup, with the games
being tougher and Pickem being
better. Read em and weep:
MEDFORD - COQUILLE
This intersectional gigantic
will be played her tomorrow
- afternoon, with the winnah
becoming the stale's number
one prep outfit. Pickem
- hasn't seen the Red Devils
perform, but he has
Medford's Black Tornado,
: and all ha con say is that
, Mr. Spike Leslie's crew bet
ter be good. With all the
1 locals in good shape and ach
' ing for some body contact
business after taking things
easy for almost two weeks,
Pickem predicts that Coquille
will get thumped. But the
Devils should score. If their
, pass attack is as good as re
ported. The turn is called:
Medford 20, Coquille 7.
MILWAUKIE - SALEM. This
one will be played tonight, and
Pickem looks for the Inky Boe
Maroons to do an el comeback
after being deadlocked by Eu
gene. Unless the Vikings go
plumb off their beans, it should
be about 13 to naught in favor
of Milwaukie.
ASHLAND - GRANTS PASS.
Ashland's final chance to win
one game this season will pass
without accomplishment of that
feat. The Cavemen, despite con
siderable flu In their neck of
the woods, will trip the Grizzlies,
7 to a.
OREGON - WASHINGTON.
Another Thanksgiving Day
"blood" battle, with the Web
foots continuing their superior

Jackie Robinson and Kenny
W a s h i n gton notwithstanding,
the Beavers of Oregon State will
beat the Bruins to remain in
the Rose Bowl running, 20 to

CALIFORNIA-STANFORD.
The "big game" Ihii year has
certainly shrunk in import

is concerned. Stanford has
yet to win a game and Cal
has won two. Therefore, Cal

TANGLE THURSDAY
The year's final Southern Ore
gon conference football clash
will take place In Ashland to
morrow morning, Thanksgiving
Day, when Skeet O'Connell's
Grizzlies attempt to win their
first game of the season at the
expense of the Grants Pass
Cavemen. Opening kickoff is
slated for 11 a.m.
At stake in the struggle will be
the cellar championship of the
loop. Neither club has won- a
conference game, both being de
feated by Medford and Klamath
Falls. In a previous tilt of non-
conference variety. Grants Pass
defeated the Ashlanders, 12 to
0, and will be slight favorites
to make it two in a row.
L FOR UCLA
Corvallls, Nov. 22. (IP)
Oregon State college finished
home practice for Its final Paci
fic Coast conference game today
and boarded a train for Los
Angeles and Saturday's battle
with UCLA. A victory would
assure the Beavers of second
place and would leave them
within reach of the title should
Southern California lose a game.
Although the squad contained
innumerable briiises from the
last three games with USC, Ore
gon and California, only two
players were considered of un
certain value Saturday, Leonard
Younce, end, with a swollen el
bow, and Walt Jelsma, tackle,
with a damaged knee.
UCLANS GIVEN SLIGHT
Los Angeles, Nov. 22. (P)
Football observers studied the
possibilities of the Oregon Stute
U.C.L.A. game scheduled Satur
day and predicted one of the
hardest fought battles of the
season would be waged in Mem
orial Coliseum.
The Uclans should boast a
more potent offenso than dis
played In Its scoreless tie with
Santa Clara, and with Jackie
Robinson due to play, they wore
given a slight edge In this de
partment over the oncoming
Reavers.

BOTH TOWNS GRID
CRAZY; CROWD OF
4,000EXPECTED
Red Devils Score 320 Points
To None For Opponents;
Game Starts 1 P. M.
This town of Medford becomes
the prep football center of all
Oregon tomorrow afternoon,
Thanksgiving Day, when Bill
Bowerman shoves his roaring
Black Tornado in there against
Coquille high's point-crazy Red
Devils, a Coos county miracle
team that has heaped up a total
of 320 points to their opponents'
none in eight straight victories.
Before an expected 4,000 Tur
key Day clients, these two state i
title contenders will line up for
a 1 o'clock kickoff In a clash
destined to place the winner In
the role of number one claim
ant for the mythical Oregon
championship.
Not since 1934, when the lo
cals battled Washington high of
Portland to a 6 to 6 deadlock,
has the Black Tornado come so
close to reaching the state's prep
pinnacle. And never has a Spike
Leslie-coached Coquille eleven
hung up such an amazing record.
600 Coquillert Coming.
Because of this, both towns
have gone football crazy. Med
ford fans are in a dither of ex
citement; they have been eat
ing, sleeping and talking foot
ball for the past week. In Co
quille approximately 800 rabid
supporters are planning to fol
low their beloved Red Devils
to Medford. The local school
sent 300 reserved seat ducats to
Coquille and they were, gobbled
up in two days. In addition,
about 200 Red Devil students
are coming for the game and
probably 50 more general ad
mission fans.
Both teams are in fine condi
tion for the struggle. Coach
Bowerman of the Medfords said
his team had almost entirely
recovered from the flu epidemic
of the past two weeks. All
regulars, with the possible ex
ception of Alden Hibbert, guard,
are ready to go. Hibbert has a
bad cold, and If he Isn't able
to start the game Dean Grimes
will open, the coach said. The
Tigers will romp through only
a limbering-up session today.
The Red Devils, 26 strong,
will arrive in Medford late this
afternoon and may take a light
workout on the stadium turf
either today or Thursday morn
ing. Reports from Coquille say
the Leslie aggregation is In the
best shape of the year.
Passes Expected.
The game is expected to de
velop into a wide-open, high
scoring affair. Both clubs boast
potent aerial and running at
tacks, with Dee Krantz, full
back, and Everett Smith, right
half, leading the invaders, and
Bob Ncwland, John Saulsberry
and Billy Piche pacing the Tiger
ortensive. The Tornado will
have a substantial weight ad
vantage in the line, with the
two backfields being about even.
Local prognosticators have been
tearing their hair in an attempt
to get some gauge on the rela
tive strength of the two clubs,
who have played no common
opponents. Medford and Co
quille have, however, played
opponents who have played each
other. This angle figures two
ways: Medford is 25 paper
points stronger than Coquille on
one basis, and the Red Devils
are six paper points better than
the Tornado on the other.
Tigers Favored.
Medford beat Grants Pass, 38
to 0, and Grants Pass beat North
Bend, 13 to 7. Coquille shel
lacked North Bend. 19 to 0.
which makes Coquille 13 paper
points better than Grants Pass,
or 25 paper points weaker than
Medford.
On the other hand, Grants
Pass defeated Roscburg by only
a 8 to 0 score, while Coquille
was murdering Roscburg. 48 to
0, which makes Coquille 42
paper points stronger than
Grants Pass, or six paper points
better than Medford.

Football Is Safe and Fine
For Boys, Claims Physician
Palo Alio, Nov. 22. (IP) After 12 years of diagnosing and
treating Stanford's football injuries. Dr. E. F. "Fritz" Roth
answers the question, "Shall I let my son play football?"
"Why, surel He is playing football."
Dr.
Roth's son, "Fritz, Jr."
plays tackle for the Palo Alto
high school team.
"Football Is safe," said the
medico who has been the Stan
ford team physician since 1927.
"I would a lot rather have my
son scrimmaging in his spare
time after school than running
around on the highways in some
kid's rattletrap. Besides he
comes home tired at night and
goes to bed."
Dr. Roth gives his side of the
oft - asked question in this

calls his work at Stanford a

to normal without injury when

As a rule, Stanford football

THANKSGIVING DAY
Medford Versus Coquille
Heads List of Games
Milwaukie-Salem Today.
By Fred Hampson
Associated Press Writer
By tomorrow night Oregon
high school football schedules
will be over and the state cham
pionship ballot will have been
trimmed again.
The Portland lnterscholastic,
Tualatin-Yamhill, and Coos Bay
leagues will wind up their 1939
business this week. The Willam
ette Valley circuit will play four
of its last five games and the
No-Name league will determine
its champion.
The state's biggest game of
Thanksgiving No. 1 will be the
Coquille-Medford, affair at Med
ford. Medford is undefeated, al
though tied by Klamath Falls,
in an eight game schedule
against Weed and Eureka, Calif.,
Grants Pass, Bend, Eugene, Cor
vallis and Ashland.
Coquille hasn't played quite
so tough a schedule but has won
eight by excessive scores, neith
er losing nor tying nor being
scored on. Neither team makes
any secret of a desire to play
the Portland champion on Dec.
2 If It wins tomorrow.
Maroons Favored
Milwaukie's Maroons, con
siderably deflated by Eugene's
13-13 tie last Friday, play Salem
today in their final no-name
league game. The Vikings, de
feated in their last three games,
weren't conceded much chance.
Eugene ends Its season against
Albany Thursday.
Silverton can nail down the
Willamette Valley league flag
by beating Chemawa today but
if the Indians score an upset
West Linn can gallop ahead by
beating Independence Friday.
Beaverton can run up the
Tualatin-Yamhill flag by beat
ing Tigard Thursday.
Jeff Cinch for Title
The week's fare in the Port
land league: Roosevelt-Benson
and Commerce-Franklin Wed
nesday, Jefferson Washington
Thursday. Lincoln lost to Grant
6-0 Tuesday. Jefferson was con
sidered a sure thing to beat
Washington and keep the title.
The final Coos league game
finds Marshfield at North Bend.
Grants Pass takes on Ashland
and Cottage Grove meets Junc
tion City in two traditional
turkey day encounters.
GOV. OLSON TO SEEK.
MORE PENSION TAXES
Sacramento, Nov. 22. UP) A
tax raising program to net an
additional $75,000,000 "or there
abouts" was disclosed by Gov
ernor Culbert L. Olson today
as his revenue raising objective
at a special session of the legis
lature to be held this winter.
The sum specified would be
designed, the governor said, to
finance the added $30,000,000
cost to the state involved in his
proposal to lower the old-age
pension limit from 65 to 60
years and to carry ordinary gov
ernmental expenses up to the
end of the next fiscal year.
