King Kong Clayton, the ebony grappling streak from Birming ham and Paul Bozell, Boston crab expert with the unbeaten record, come together in the armory main event tonight, and Promoter Mack Lillard confi dently expects the match to de velop into one of the finest seen here in the past several months. The program starts at 8 o'clock sharp, Sgt. Bob Kenaston, Gold Hill bad boy, will play the party of the second part when Bobby Chick, popular ex-light heavy weight champion, steps in the local squared circle for the first time In two years. During the past 24 months Chick, elder brother of Dude, has been work ing In the east and middle west, and his return will be welcomed by all lovers of legitimate and spectacular grappling. Popeye Sick Popeye Pat O'Brien, origin ally slated to meet Herb Parks in the opener, was forced to cancel the engagement when he contracted the flu, and his place will be taken by Eddie Rogers of Michigan, who battled Parks last week. Tonight s card will see two matches staged along cleanie- meanie lines, with only the opener providing 100 per cent scientific action. In the main event Bozell will provide the off-color tactics, with Clayton attempting to win via legitimate tactics. The center attraction will pit Konaston's dirt against Chick's science. Because he will boast a weight advantage and superior strength Bozell is a slight vocal favorite to continue his winning streak at the expense of the Negro flash in the top go. However, many addicts are confident Clayton's speed and all-around wrestling ability will enable him to overcome Bozell's heft and brute strength. Clayton himself, believes he can whip the erstwhile Black Dragon, and plans to use plenty of dropkicks and other scientific holds in the attempt. May Turn Rough Bozell's principal maneuver is the Boston crab, and with it he figures to put Clayton away in short order. Bozell is also expected to get a little rough in the clinches, which may set off all the fireworks desired by the customers who like their mat fare tinged with brutality. X ik.

Bobby Chick (above) Dude's older brother and former light heavyweight champion of the world, returns to Medford to night after a two year's absence to tangle with Sgt.

(IP) With one possible upset to go, the list of unbeaten and untied survivors of those hundreds of college football teams which started with high hopes back in September has been reduced to only ten. Tennessee's great team, win ner of nine straight and gene erally rated the best In the south, still has to meet Auburn next Saturday. The other nine are resting, certain nothing more can happen unless they go to one of those "bowl" games New Year's day. One more good team, Du quesnc, Joined the ranks of the also-rans last week.

There will be a couple of side excursions next week to decide championship races In the Southeastern and Pacific Coast conferences, but that Is all there is left in winding up the season. Already two teams have been named for the post - season clashes. Georgia Tech, certain to get at least a tie for the Southeastern conference crown, accepted an invitation to appear In Miami's Orange Bowl as soon as It finished the regular season Saturday by beating Georgia, 13-0.

Troy Walker, executive secre tary of the association, In formed Acheson in a teleeram that Portland's withdrawal from the association would necessi tate cancellation of all athletic contests between Portland schools and those of the associ ation.

Pasadena. Calif.,- Dec. 4. (IP) Officially, all Is silence. But unofficially that great annual guessing game, "who will play in the Rose Bowl?" is getting under way. The western entry remains iO be chosen when Southern Cali- 128 fornia and the University of j2a California at Los Angeles meet 129 next Saturday. Both are unde feated. They will settle the Pa cific coast conference crown, and, automatically, the west's defender of its honor In the annual New Year's Day classic of the Arroyo Seco. Bill Ackerman, UCLA's grad uate manager, turned off an effort to pin him on the Bruins' preference with: "We plan to wait 'til we have the right to extend a bid be fore we do so." Officials at Southern Califor nia were equally uncommunica tive. But the boys who know say that if S. C. wins Saturday, Ten nessee will be the choice. The Trojans drew some criticism last year for inviting Duke over the unbeaten Vols. As for UCLA, rumor has It that those in control look kind ly on Texas Aggies. Texas teams are highly popular out this way, and plenty of pressure is exerted by a vociferous con tingent from the Lone Star state whenever an undefeated team bobs up in that sector. The Bruins hold one decision this season over a Texas team, Texas Christian. Paul Zimmerman, sports edi tor of the Los Angeles Times, theorized thus: "If the Trojans are elected by the coast conference, we'll see Tennessee just as sure as shooting fish, and if the Uclans win, the pendelum is apt to swing the Texas (Aggies) way, although that isn't final by any means." Sacramento, Cal., Dec. 4. (IP) An up-and-down football sea son was over for the University jof San Francisco Dons today. with a 26 to 14 victory over Creighton university, the last on the books. The Dons banged over four touchdowns in a lively second half to beat the Nebraskans yesterday In a charity game be fore a crowd of 10 000. San Francisco closed its sea son with four victories, three defeats and two ties. Creighton has won four and lost five. As long ago as the 12th Cen tury, monks were using linseed oil in the manufacture of varnish. GAELS END POOR YEAR BY THUMPING LOYOLA Los Angeles, Dec. 4. VP) St. Mary's Gaels ended a poor season Sunday by pounding out a 40-7 football victory over Loyola's weak Lions before a ' crowd of 10,000.
