Billy Hnlen layi:
I. Pickem Take.
Final Swing At
Gridiron Game
With today'- peerless grid
picks, I. Pickem pulls in his
, neck, packs away the trusty
crystal ball and calls it quits
for another football season. He 11
make one last, quick appearance
just before the Rose Bowl game
between probably Tennessee ana
U.S.C., but today really winds
up this year's prognosticating
program.
There is a dearth of encoun
ters billed for tomorrow after
noon, so Pickem is forced to
present only half of his weekly
dozen. But, what tomorrow
lacks in quantity it certainly
makes up for in quality. The
following games are tough and
Pickem doesn't expect to do
much better than hit six for six.
Washington-U. S. C: It has
been six long years since How
ard Jones managed to send a
team on the field able to whip
Jimmy Phclan's Huskies. Last
year Washington surprised even
Its most rabid rooters by up
setting the Trojans, 7 to 6, and
I. Pickem called the turn. This
year, however, he hasn't the
nerve to again name Washing
ton, and the game is called like
this: Southern Cal. 13, Wash
ington 0.
Stanford-Dartmouth: Ending
one of their worst seasons In his
tory, the Stanford Indians travel
clear back to Hanover, N. H.,
to take another licking. Dart
mouth hasn't looked any too
strong of late, but it should
have enough power to beat the
Coast club with ease, about 20
to 6.
Army-Navy: About the only
claim this clash has to glory is
the huge crowd that's certain to
attend and the fact that it's the
biggest "natural" of the season.
Both outfits are below par, but
Pickem believes Army will eke
out a 7 to 3 win.
Tulane-L.S.U.: Tulane's Green
Wave is rolling toward a "bowl"
game and should engulf a bct-
ter-than-average Louisiana State
team. The clash figures to be
one of the most bitterly-fought
In the south this year, and any
thing can happen in a game of
this kind. It's still Tulane
thought, by a 14 to 6 tally.
New York-Fordham: Another
traditional struggle between two
great rivals. Fordham was a
slight disappointment this
season and New York univer
sity did better than was expect
ed of it. However, we'll stick
with Jimmy Crowley and his
Bams. Fordham, by 13 to 0.
Southern Methodist-Texas
Chrlstinn: This Is the big
"blood" battle of the southwest
and its simply a matter of take
your choice. Pickem's cherce is
Southern Methodist, after an
aerinl battle de luxe. Score: 27
to 14.
E
TO DEFEAT OILERS
Eugene, Dec. 1. (IP) The
University of Oregon basketball
team, defending national inter
collegiate champion, was forced
to the limit last night to defeat
SiRnal Oil of Portland, 47 to 43.
The Webfeet, after trailing
most of the first half, tied the
count at 23-23 at hulftimc and
then went on to win In the last
tivo minutes.
Ted Sarpola of Oregon and
Chuck Patterson of the Oilers
tied for high point honors, with
14 each.
The score was tied several
times In the second half.

Games; Few Tilts Left
Br Judion Ballsy
New York, Dec. 1. (IP) Half
filled now, a couple of football
bowls are going to be tanked
right up to the brim before the
week is over if the same form
that held good in yesterday's
juicy Thanksgiving day menu
doesn t spoil before Saturday,
The Texas Aggies completed
an undefeated season of ten
games with a 20-0 conquest of
their old rivals, the University
of Texas Longhorns, and the
mighty Tenneesee Volunteers
caged the Kentucky Wildcats
19-0 to extend their undefeated
and unscorcd upon string right
up to the final fray of the
season.
These developments, as half
of the country observed the cal
endar holiday, gave the two win
ners everything they needed to
get to the Rose and Sugar bowls
except the railroad tickets. Un
til they get them, figuratively
at least, nobody will know just
which will go where, but the
best brains arc booming Ten
nessee for Pasadena and the
Aggies for New Orleans come
New Year's day.
Tulane To Play L.S.U.
The other halves of the casts
in these two spectacles are like
ly to be filled to the satisfaction
of the public on Saturday when
Southern California attempts to
hurdle a Washington eleven and
Tulane tackles its bitter foe,
Louisiana State.
Providing U.S.C. and Tulane
triumph, their assignments for
next New Year's day already
are laid out for them. The Tro
jans will be hosts in the Rose
bowl and the Green Wave will
receive at the Sugar bowl.
While attention already has
turned to the gridiron's post
season activities, there still are
some attractive morsels of the
regular program remaining.
The prospective Rose bowl
rivals have games pending on
December 9, Southern Cal
against UCLA and Tennessee
against Auburn.
The Army-Navy vaudeville
performance Is booked for Phil
adelphia municipal stadium to
morrow with more than 100,000
patrons expected. In New York
there'll be Stanford and Dart
mouth, and N.Y.U. against Ford
ham. In Boston the fans will
have Boston college and Holy
Cross In one of the fiercest of
feuds.
On other sectional fronts the
rambling wreck of Georgia
Tech, tied for the Southeastern
conference title, will scrap with
Georgia; undefeated Duquesne
bumps into Detroit, and South
ern Methodist and Texas Christ
ian and Baylor and Rice col
lide. Yesterday's firing cost Rut
gers its first defeat as the Brown
Bears scored twice in the final
period for a 13-0 decision.
Colorado Wins Title
One confcrenccc hamplonshlp
was settled as Colorado cap
tured a wild 27-17 fracas from
Denver in the Rocky mountains'
Big Seven.
Alabama's slow-starting steam
roller flattened Vnnderbilt 39
10, oncc-benton North Carolina
walloped Virginia 10-0, and
Florida escaped with a 7-7 tie
against Auburn when the game
ended with the Tigers on the
two-yard line.
Nearly every national pnrk in
the United States showed an In
crease In the number of hikers
on forest trails. The overnight
pack-horse type of hiking gained
especially in adherents.

TEXAS AGS SAVE
COACH'S JOB BY
By Felix R. McKnight
College Station, Tex., Dec. 1.
(JP) Ten football games ago a
tired man started the season at
Texas A. & M. with his neck
in the guillotine.
Today Homer Hill Norton has
an unbeaten team, a certain
post-season bowl bid in the of
fing, the southwest conference
title and more than a light clam
or to shift his talent to other
places.
Rain and mud slowed his
massive warriors, but yester
day, while 40,000 wet custo
mers shrieked, his Aggies
whipped the University of Texas
20-0 to close a perfect ten-game
season in which stout opposi
tion scored only 18 points.
Today Coach Norton left fog-
enshrouded College Station on
a duck hunt until Tuesday.
Then the Aggies, while not of
ficially confirming any rumors,
are expected to vote a prefer
ence for the New Orleans Sugar
Bowl game.
Admittedly eager to play in
the Rose Bowl, the Aggies were
believed to harbor a feeling they
were running second to Tennes
see's Vols.
Reliable reports were that
Norton had been approached by
a major Pacific coast school. He
had little to say aoout such re
ports. HUGH FDR ARMY-NAVY
Philadelphia. Dec. 1. (JP)
The city tingled with excitement
today as football forces of the
Army and Navy trained sights
on their annual gold braid clas
sic. Encamped at suburban coun
try clubs, the rival contingents
staged dress rehearsals each
grimly confident' of winning to
morrow s skirmish on the dyed
Rrccnsward of municipal sta
dium. Downtown hotel lobbies be
gan swarming with the van
guard of the 100,000 persons
who are expected to se the
game. j
Everyone seemed bursting
with good spirits save the spec
ulators. Thoy arc gltiMi over the
dictum that tickets sold at more
than $4.40 each would be turned
down at the gate.
Resorting to such subterfuges
as the "gift" of a ticket with
a tie that sold for as much as
$10, the scalpers made modest
headway. Still, many fans were
chary of such dealings, and so
left the smart boys behind the
proverbial eight ball.
The betting gentry Installed
Army as the 7-5 favorite, but
the Gobs from the Navy yard
were willing in quite a few cases
to lay even money that their
colleagues from Annapolis
would scuttle the West Pointers.
Tricks Pear Trees.
Mobile, Ala. (Ul'i Unusual
ly warm fall weather has caused
pear trees here to bloom. Mrs.
H. B. Wharton said the tree in
her back yard had more blooms
now than it did last spring and
an orchard on Moffett road put
out thousands of blossoms.

KEN WASHINGTON
STARS AS BRUINS
TRIM WSC, 24-7
Negro Flash Pitches Two
Payoff Passes to Keep
Team In Bowl Running.
Los Angeles, Dec. 1. (JP)
Those University of California
at Los Angeles Bruins still are
a big threat in Southern Cali
fornia's Rose bowl campaign,
and so are the Washington
Huskies, whose long jinx over
U.S.C. will get a stiff test in the
coliseum tomorrow.
The unbeaten Bruins finished
off Washington State, 24-7, last
night with a burst of fourth
period touchdowns, and go into
their final Pacific Coast confer
ence game December 9 against
the toughest of them all, South
ern California's powerful Trojan
eleven.
Until that encounter, the
Bruins are a Rose bowl con
tender.
Once again, as it has been
all season, the Uclan victory
rested on the prowess of Kenny
Washington, Negro halfback
star. It was Washington who
put the Bruins in front last
night with a touchdown pass,
good for 44 yards, and who
moved them into the lead again
in the final period with another
scoring strike, good for 26
yards.
Robinson Helps
Jackie Robinson, K e n n y's
dusky helpmate, caught the last
pass, and late gave a brilliant
exhibition of broken field run
ning to score once and set the
stage for the fourth touchdown,
but it was Washington who put
the game on ice.
While the rival grid teams
remain in seclusion, the Uni
versity of Southern California
holds its annual "home-coming
week" banquet tonight, with
athletic officials of the Univer
sity of Washington honor guests.
Trojans Favored
The unbeaten 'irojans remain
favored to win tomorrow's Pa
cific Coast conference struggle,
but a hard battle was expected
from the Washington eleven.
SAN JOSE LOOKS
San Jose, Cal., Dec. 1. (JP)
San Jose State, unbeaten and
untied in 13 games, was looking
around today for an invitation
to play in some post-season
"bowl" game after winding up
its season with a 12 to 0 victory
over Drake university last night.
A crowd of 13,000 saw the
high-scoring Spartans boost
their season's point total to 324
against 29 for their opponents
as they knocked over a fighting
Drake team with the usual of
fensive trickery cooked up by
the veteran Glenn S. "Pop"
Warner, advisor coach at San
Jose with head man Dud De
Groot. Coach "Vee" Green of Drake
praised San Jose as "one of the
finest teams we've met in
years."

CLAYTON-BOZELL
STIRS INTEREST
By his victory over Sgt. Bob
Kenaston last Monday night,
King Kong Clayton earned a
main event wrestling berth, and
he gets it next Monday eve.
Standing by his promise to
Clayton, Promoter Mack Lillard
has matched the Negro gladiator
with big, tough, undefeated Paul
Bozell, and the struggle Is ex
pected to cause more real grap
pling interest here than any in
a long, long time.
Clayton has lost only one
match since coming to Medford
a month ago and fans are al
most unanimous in declaring
him the finest all-around mat-
man of the current crop. Bozell,
on the other hand, is bigger and
probably slightly stronger and
will have the further advantage
of being able to employ a "sud
den death hold the Boston
crab.
Bobby Chick, older brother
of the famous Dude and former
light-heavyweight champion of
the world, returns after a two
year's absence to meet Kenaston
in the middle bout. Bobby, since
leaving here, has made a sweep
through the east and middle
west, and comes back in per
fect physical condition and with
a reported number of new man
euvers, which he may need
against the Kenaston tough fel
low.
Another old favorite PoDeve
Pat O'Brien will be seen in
action in the opening go, when
he faces Herb Parks, the sweet-
wrestling Canadian. O'Brien, al
though getting along in vears
for a top-notch athlete, is one
of the smartest gents in the busi
ness. He still can go at too
speed with any of the younger
boys and Parks may have his
paws overflowing with O'Brien.

Regular Sunday trapshooting
will commence at the Medford
gun club Sunday morning. Dur
ing the upland bird and duck
shooting seasons the club has
not been shooting regularly.
With Klamath duck shooting re
ported very poor the last sev
eral weeks few hunters have
been making the long trip and
the demand for regular trap
shooting has caused the gun club
to start trap-shooting every Sun
day commencing this week.
After the first of the year the
club will hold its annual meet
ing at which officers for the
coming year will be elected, the
yearly team shoot of all mem
bers will be held and the event
ful annual banquet will be
served at the club house.
The "Hunters Special" shoot,
now a popular event with all
gun clubs in every part of the
United States and Canada, will
probably be held in February.
In these events the gun clubs
canvass every available shooter,
especially non members and
business men, to compete on one
of the teams.
The club management invites
the public to shoot at the Sun
day shoots at any time without
the necessity of joining the club.
