Billy liulen Says:
Webfoots Rated
.' Grid Toga Threat .
By Sportcatter
Take the word of Doug Mon
tell, the Associated Oil com
pany' nice volced sportcaster,
Tex Oliver's University of Ore
con Webfoots will be right up
there battling for the Pacific
Coast conference football cham
pionship this autumn.
Montell. who has been making
a survey of the grid prospects
of Oregon and Washington
schools the past two weeks, not
only believes the Ducks will be
in the first division, but claims
they actually have a fair chance
to caDture the crown,
"If they can get over that
Stanford opener September 27 at
Palo Alto, Montell premciea
"they will go into the Washing
ton game at Seattle November
22 for what I believe will be the
title contest."
The ace sports announcer
who spoke at the Lions club
meeting Wednesday night and at
the 20-30 club Tuesday eve,
didn't predict the Webfoots
WOULD knock over the T-for
mation Indians, defending
champs, but he did say such anjiness for the year's climax tour-
occurrence was entirely wimin
the realm of possibility.
"Sure, Stanford will bo ter
rific again this season, prob
ably even more so than last
year, for they lots only Stand
lee and Gallarneau from the
backfield and one lineman,
but that Oregon eleven looks
awfully good to me and I give
them more than a fighting
chance to pull the big upset,"
Montell stated.
"Stanford might Just possibly
be over-confident," he hazarded,
"and if Oliver sends his club out
there to take chances and gamble
all the way they can win, In
my opinion."
Talking to Oliver, Montell
learned that the Ducks would
probably open against the In
dians with 10 lettermen and only
one soph In the starting lineup.
Tex wasn't bit cagy when 1
asked him for a tentative start
ing club." Montell explained.
"He said 'sure,' and gave it to
me like this:
"Hyman Harris and Bill Reg
ner, ends; Ed Moshofsky and
Dick Ashcom, tackles; Ray Se
ga le and Val Culwell, guards;
Elliott Wilson, center: Chris
Iverson, quarterback; Frank
Boyd, left half; Curt Mecham,
right half and Bill Dunlap, the
aoph, at fullback. Jimmy New
quist, the 1S40 frosh sensation,
is also due to see plenty of serv
ice at fullback. Tex told me."
Montell rated Oregon and
Washington the best of the
northern teams. The Huskies,
he said, looked great on paper,
and he predicted that If Stan
ford was beaten this season It
would be either the Webfoots
or the Huskies who would turn
the trick. Oregon State and
Washington State didn't great
ly Impress the sportcaster.
Of the southern elevens. Stan
ford, of course, was placed first
in Montell's future book, with
probably Southern California
next, followed by California and
V. C. L. A. He looks for Santa
Clara to come up with its usual
fine club and St. Mary's to be
fair, though not nearly so power
ful as the Broncs.
Returning to the subject of
the Olivermen, Montell was im
pressed by the fact that it will
be an older team than usual.
with most of the players over 21
and therefore not eligible for the
draft. On the other hand, he
said, the Trojans had many
players under 21 who might be
inducted into the army with the
resultant weakening of the
squad.

PLAY
Many Out-of-Town Entrants
To Compete Predict
82's Will Qualify.
Bristling with low-handicap
players. Including several cap
able of administering a sound
thrashing to Old Man Par, a
field expected to reach approxi
mately 120 will toil over the
Rogue Valley Golf club's sweep
ing fairways and velvet greens
all day Friday in 18-hol quali
fying rounds for the 13th an
nual Southern Oregon-Northern
California amateur classic.
Match Dlay in all flights will
start Saturday and continue
through Monday, Labor day.
Although several local en
trants in the blue-ribbon tour
nament plan to fire their qual
ifying rounds today, the bulk
of what looks like the strongest
field in the history of the event
will tee off tomorrow. Club of
ficials say everything is in read-
ney, with tne course in excel
lent condition and clubhouse
facilities arranged to provide
everything necessary to the
many out-of-town and local shot
makers entered.
Observers predicted that It
would take an 82 to qualify
for the championship flight, to
consist of the 32 low scorers
The qualifying line broke off
at 83 last year, with all 82's
and under getting into the title
flight and several 83 s qualify
ing after playoffs. Following the
first round of match play, the
beaten 16 in the championship
flight will make up the first
flight. All other flights will con
sist of 18 players.
Hanen To Qualify
Although defending champion
Dick Hanen of Marshfield and
other former champloni are
automatically placed in the
championship flight and do not
have to qualify, they plan to
shoot qualifying rounds in quest
of medalist honors. Last year
Eddie Simmons of Medford,
four-time tourney winner, and
Luclan Clement tied for the
medal prize with 89's, one un
der par, but the latter was
awarded the prize on the flip
of a coin. Clement la no longer
resident of Medford and will
not compete in the tournament.
In the 1640 tourney 58 out-
of-town golfers from as far
north as Seattle and as far south
San Francisco competed
against local entrants, and club
officials expect at least that
many will again be on hand
for the event.
Leading the visiting conting
ent, of course, will be Dick
Hanen, who defeated Simmons
in the championship match last
year. Forrest Watson, former
northwest amateur champion
and a one-handicap player, is
expected to come here from Se
attle for the tournament, and
another fine out-of-town swinger
planning to compete Is Cy Don
aldson of San Francisco, an
other one-handicap man. Sev
eral other high-ranking stars
from rorthern California, Wash
ington and other parts of Ore
gon will start arriving today.
Locals Threats
Carrying the championship
hopes of Medford are Simmons,
Leland (Pete) Clark, finalist in
1939 and always a dangerous
threat, though he has never
managed to win the meet, and
Bob Hammond, champion In
1929 and 1931. Simmons and

Bob Riegeo, Neil White, Skee

Ward, stout-hearted Spokane

In 1939, blazed his way to two
triumphs yesterday to become
the only ex-titleholder stiU in

BEARS TO BATTLE
STARS THIS EVE
Chicago. Aug. 28. P This
is the night the Chicago Bears
find out what kind of business
they can do with Tom Harmon
and company.
It's the eighth annual battle
of college all-stars and profes
sional football champions in Sol
dier field. All 93.200 tickets
have been sold and 5,000 service
men will be admitted free to
the game and the colorful cere
monies beforehand.
The Bears are seeking to
make it three victories in a row
for the pros over the stars, the
New York Giants having taken
the 1939 game, 9 to 0, and the
Green Bay Packers the 1940
contest, 45 to 28.
Against the all-stars will be
arrayed virtually the same squad
of Bears that mowed down the
Washington Redskins, 73 to 0
last year in the championship
pro game, and presenting the
same great T formation on
which Owner-Coach George Ha
tas has developed a variety of
man-in-motlon plays.
The Bears will go on the field
the favorites at odds of possibly
3i to 1.
The fleet marine force is divi
ded into two divisions, one on
the East coast and one on the
West. Each division has more
than 13,000 men.

BROOKLYN BLASTS
CINCY FLAG HOPE
410 2
By Judson Bailey
Associated Press Writer
The desperate hopes of the
Cincinnati Reds for a miracle
that would return them to a
third straight world series have
been engulfed In the slow tide
that seems to be carrying the
Brooklyn Dodgers on its crest.
They had their best and per
haps last chance to break into
the thick of the National league
pennant scramble last night and
failed, as Kirby Higoe whipped
Johnny Vander Meer 4-2 before
30.000 fans at Ebbets field.
The St. Louis Cardinals beat
the New York Giants in another
night game, 8-5.
In the other National league
games Pittsburgh walloped the
Phillies 12-2 with a 21-hit bom
bardment, and the Chicago Cubs
divided a doubleheader with the
Boston Braves. Manny Salvo
shut out the Cubs 6-0 on five
hits in the opener and then Char
ley Root pitched 8 2-3 Innings
in relief to win the second ses
sion 6-4 and gain the 200th vic
tory of his 16-year career.
The New York Yankees added
another game to their immense
American league lead by over
whelming the St. Louis Browns
11-1 in a night game.
The last place Washington
Senators crushed the second
place Chicago White Sox, 11-3
Lefty Grove pulled a muscle
in his side, possibly meaning his
loss for the season as the Boston
Red Sox dropped a 6-3 verdict
to the Detroit Tigers.
Jeff Heath drove in seven runs
with two homers and a triple as
the Cleveland Indians assaulted
the Athletics. 11-4.
