PAGE TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORO OREGON. SUNDAY, JUNE 23, 1910. WIN NCAA TITLE: FOR SIXTH TIME Stanford Squad Second Track Soaked by Rains- New Records Set. Minneapolis June 22. (IP) Southern California'! mighty Trojans handed the field and the element! a thoroufh licking today to aweep to their alxth atraight national collegiate track and field ehampionihip. Under the wont weather con ditlons In the meet'a IB-year hiatory, Southern California piled up 44 polntf to turn back the challenge of Stanford, lee ond place team finisher. In a meet which saw the establish ment of new N. C. A. A. marks in the shot put and 120-yard high hurdles. Southern California's complete domination of the team battle almost was overshadowed by the day's biggest upset defeat of Fred Wolcott of Rice Insti tute In the 120-yard high hurdle vent. Winner of this event two atraight years and holder of the American mark of 13.9 seconds for this race, Wolcott lost his crown to big Ed Dugger, negro star from Tufts. Running on track soaked by a long rain which delayed the start of the races almost two hours, Dugger stepped over the highs in 13.0 to clip one tenth of a second off the meet record set by Wolcott two years ago. The Tufts star, charging up from behind, gained a deci sion of inches over Wolcott, whose 13.9 American mark was made so recently that it has not yet been entered in the record books. Al Blozis, 248-pound sopho more from Georgetown, contrib uted the shot put record, tossing the ball 58 feet, V4 Inch in the qualifying tests to crack the old meet and American mark of 55 feet, lOtt Inches. Southern California scored an undisputed first in the pole vault, won by Ken Dills, and tied 'for first place with Michigan .In the high jump. The Tro jans showed remarkable bal ance, placing in eight of the 14 .events. Stanford's point total was 28 2-3, with California and Penn State tying at 24 each. The hectic afternoon, which saw heavy rain squalls rake the Minnesota stadium four times .before the skies finally cleared, created such confusion at the .scorers table that it was an hour after the meet ended before a corrected point total was finally announced. Norwood Ewell, negro star from Penn State, won both the .100-yard and 220-yard dash .titles. He ran the 100 In 9.6 seconds, nosing out Stanford's Clyde Jeffrey, who did not de fend his title in the 220 because of a muscle injury. Ewell won this race in 21.1, bettering the listed American mark for 220 yards around one turn, made by Ralph Metcalfe In 1933. ZALEJNJULY 19 Seattle, June 22. (IP) Al Hostak, NBA middleweight champion, will defend his title here July 19 over the 15-round route against Tony Zale, the tough Gary, Ind., steel worker. Promoter Nate Druxman an nounced signing the match to day after he unsuccessfully sought to match Hostak with either Ken Overlin, present holder of the New York-California middleweight title, or Ceferino Garcia, who surren dered that bauble to Overlin. Zale holds a non-title decision over Hostak, defeating the Se attle Slav in Chicago last win ter when Hostak cracked his left fist over Zale's eye in a 10-round Dennybrook. Astoria, June 22.

The first-place Indians club bed young Jim Bagby for four runs In the fourth and scored three more in the sixth, getting four hits each inning, to stay ahead all the way. Mel Harder, the winning pitcher, was shaky, however, and required Joe Dob- son a assistance before a three- run Red Sox uprising was quenched in the eighth.

PILUSO TO FIGHT Ernie Piluso plans to fight fire with fire, to give Just what he receives, when he tangles with Toughie Bob Kenaston of Gold Hill in Monday night's main event grappling match in the Medford armory. Kenaston, by virtue of some of the dirtiest mat v. ik ever witnessed here, defeated the popular Portlander on last week's card, and Ernie has vowed vengeance. "I tried to wrestle clean but Kenaston wouldun't have it," Piluso ex plained, "so tomorrow night he will get plenty of his own medicine." Little hope is held out that the Gold Hill ruffian will for sake his vile tactics for a cleaner brand of wrestling.
