PAGE SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRIDAY, JANUARY 5, 1940. BASKETBALL FANS OFFERED STELLAR PROGRAM TONIGHT Eugene Rubensteins With Ail-Americans Play Soce; Tigers Face University HI. Medford fans will be afforded the opportunity to witness bas ketball of national intercolleg iate caliber tonight when Rub enstein's Oregonians tangle with the Southern Oregon College of Education quintet, in a prelim inary to the Medford-University High of Eugene game at the high school gymnasium. The first game will begin at 7:30. On the Rubes' roster is Lad die Gale, Bobby Anet, and Wally Johaneson, three good reasons why Oregon is now in Dossession of the national title. Also playing with the Eugene team is Dave Silver, wno piayea three years of varsity ball at Oregon, graduating in ihjb, thus just missing the . banner year. Jack Butterworth, George Washington university; Ford Danner, University of Oregon frosh; Dick Wright, Eugene high, and Gordan Wright, of the Wendling Cardinals, com plete the team. Two All-American In the national championship play-offs, Gale and Anet were selected on the AU-American team, while Johaneson and Sil ver both made the all-coast team In 1938. The two teams have met three times previously, with the Rubes taking two games and the Sons one. . Meanwhile the Sons have Im proved greatly and expect to make It very hot for the ex collegians. On their barnstorming trip Into California, Southern Ore gon took three of the four games played, defeating Hust Brothers of Marysville, Marin J. C, and Humbolt State, while losing one to Humbolt. Coach Gene Eber hart believes his present team is superior to any he has coach ed at the Ashland Institution, and expects to go far this year. Eberhart plans to start Mul der and H. Fox at forwards, big Walt Sether at center, and Marchl and Patzke at the guards. The Rubes will prob ably start Gale and Silver as forwards, Butterworth at cen ter, and their two speedy guards, Anet and Johaneson. Expected to rival the "blg tlme" preliminary in appeal, is the game between the Medford Tigers and the Golden Tide from University high of Eugene. Tide Has Veterans The Tide has a near complete-veteran ball-club, with three regulars returning from the five that took fourth place in the state tournament last year. Two lettermen have re placed the graduated players, thus giving the Tide an exper ienced team. The scoring ace of the Eugene team Is Gatlin, forward, who consistently takes high honors. The Tigers, who have taken two of their first three games, are expected to be much im proved over their last appear ance, as they have had Intensive drilling throughout the Christ mas holidays. The Golden Tide will start Four Football Rule Changes Announced for Next Season Palm Springs, Calif., Jan. E. W) College football fans may mark down four changes in the rule book for 1940, In cluding one designed to speed up play and another to encour age the use ot snort forward passes. The major change, announced i by the rules committee of the National Collegiate Athletic As sociation at the conclusion of its meeting at the Desert Inn here yesterday, involves the short forward toss. The new rule says that when a forward pass touches an in eligible player on or behind the line of scrimmage, the penalty will be merely the loss of the down. If the passer is trapped, how ever, and throws the ball to save yardage and it touches an in eligible man who is on or be hind the line, the penalty will be the same as for intentionally grounding a pass; namely, 13 yards and loss of the down. The same penalty still exists if the pass touches an ineligible player beyond the scrimmage line. Penalty for roughing a passer will, in the future, be enforced from the spot of the previous down. Heretofore, In the case of a completed or intercepted pass, the penalty was enforced from the point of the foul, which often made it necessary for the offended team to refuse the penalty. In order to speed up the game, the committee reduced the time allowed in putting the ball Into play from 30 seconds to 25 sec onds. The fourth new rule requires that cleats be three-eighths of an Inch at the top, or point, in stead of one half inch, and that the top be parallel with the base. This was the only recom mendation suggested by the American Coaches association which was adopted. it A . This wnur 'n J , . ton HI"' -JJMT ... JZ f?-! - it Gatlin and Adkinson at for wards, Goddard, center, and DeAutremont and D. Plath, guards. Coach Acheson plans to start Kresse and Gunnette, forwards, Newland, center, and Crosby and Johnston, guards. The two high school teams will play again tomorrow night, with the preliminary beginning at 7:30. The game tonight will also begin at 7:30, with no passes honored for the first game, although they will be for the high school game.

(UR1 The southern Oregon coaches all stars eked out a 33-31 victory over the traveling Negro Ghosts basketball squad here last night, although the winners were out classed most of the tilt. The colbred hoopsters led almost all the way and it was not until the final minutes of play that Hardy and O'Connell scored lightning goals to take the lead and maintain it until the gun sounded. Outstanding for the colored sharpshooters were Dunn and W 1 1 k e r s o n. Harrington and O'Connell sparked the all-stars. The visitors led, 15 to 12, at half-time. WEBFOOTS LOSE TO RUBENST EXPECTED TO BE FAVORITE OF Making his debut in the Med ford mat arena next Monday night, Zim Zlmovich will have the fans cheering for him even before he lifts a muscular arm. They will be for him simply because of the gallant fight be ing waged by his countrymen against the barbaric invaders from Soviet Russia. Zimovich is a Finn, and a powerful 200-pound one. He will meet Bob Montgomery of Georgia in the opening match that will launch Mack Lillard on his 1940 career as wrestling promoter. While an orthodox m a t m a n, Montgomery is a shade on the rough side and that bit of roughness might prove too bad for him In his grapple with the Finn. For Zlm ovich is like his countrymen; they won't stand for any rough stuff. So fans had better be on time so as not to miss what might be an electrifying match. Returning to southern Oregon after three years, Prince Meha llkis will face big Cowboy Dude Chick in the top main event. However the opening and top events turn out, the middle event is sure to produce fire works, for the brutal Joe Smo Ilnski will be one of the battlers. He will try his foul tactics on the popular King Kong Clay ton. Smollnski is an out-and-out scoundrel who uses every un derhanded trick that exists to beat down his opponents and he is so brazen he doesn't care who knows it so long as he can hide his dirty work from the referee, which usually isn't the hardest of jobs. The colored boy Clayton, however, tolerates just so much of illegitimate eye gouging, choking and b e 1 o w-the-belt punching, and then piles In him self and when King Kong gets going, it's just too bad for the guy in the ring with him. It will be Ladles' Night Mon day at the armory. This means that anyone buying a ticket may take in a woman without charge. The card opens at 8:00 o'clock.
