Billy Hulen Says:
Order Of Finish
Listed For Two
Football Loops
Juit eight dayt hence Mr.
rootball will stage hii 1941
debut In thli town, and a mere
eight dayi later the big college
clubi on the Pacific aeaboard
will itart ihooting holei in each
other.
So it'i getting about that time.
That time when every alleged
writer of a sport column In
hales deeply, hoists himself up
the tree of prognostication and
creeps out on the sturdiest-looking
limb in sight.
Being no exception to this
rule, and liking the looks of a
certain limb not too far above
the hard, cruel ground, we plan
today to do a little guessing on
the order of finish of a couple
of grid loops. Besides, we want
to get In our say before Pro
fessor 1. Plckem, of which as
a nredictor he modestly claims
there Is none whicher, arrives
on the scene with his week-by-week
list of winners, he hopes.
Taking up the Southern
Oregon conference first. It
looks like the campaign will
davslop into two separate and
distinct battles that for the
first place between Medford's
Black Tornado and the Klam
ath Falls Pelicans, and that
for last place between the
Ashland high Grisslles and
the Grants Pass Cavemen.
We don't believe the latter
two clubs will possess the
man-power to seriously threat
en either Medford or Klamath
Falls, although football is the
most unpredictable game in
the world and such a thing as
the Cavemen or the Grisslles
overturning one or both of the
ether two elevens is entirely
possible. But not probable.
Three of the four loop schools
will open the season with new
roaches. Frank O'Nell will be
at Ashland. Buck Hairmer at
Klamath and Justin 'Veakely
at Grants Pass. There Is also
the uosslblllty that Bill Bower-
man, a reserve officer, will be
called into active service. If
this happens, all four of the
outfits will have new head
man.
So, with fingers crossed, here
Is the way we predict the teams
will finish their conference
schedules:
1. Medford
2. Klamath
3. Ashland
4. Grants Pass.
Elaborating, we pick the Tor
nado to finish frlst because their
material will certainly be on a
par with Klamath's, and because
Medford. as proved by history,
always manages to reach dizzy
emotional heights when facing
the Pelicans. Ashland, with a
cob of regulars returning, should
prove stronger than Grants Pass,
which lost a considerable num
ber of lettermen via graduation.
Now for the Pacific Coast
conference.
The ballyhoo drums are thun-
dering for Washington s Huskies
and for Oregon's Webfoots, and
even Prescott Sullivan of the
'Frisco Examiner selects the
Jimmy Phelan elevent to cap
ture the marbles. And that's
something, coming from Bay
area scribe.
But it looks like Stanford
to us, all the way. In every
respect and no foolin'. As
they lost only three regulars
from last year's Rose Elowl
champs, we can't see how
they can miss being stronger
than ever, and Washington, en
paper, deosn't have the re
serve strength. Oregon? Well,
about Oregon, now, tor sev
eral years we have watched
the Ducks start the season
with great promise, rated as
dangerous "dark horses," and
for several years we have
watched the Ducks end the
season considerably below first
place. So. this writer Is MOT
counting en Oliver's club to
bitterly contend far the title.
First division? Maybe. But
not one-two. Hope we are
wrong, but that's the way it
looks from this corner.
The finish? Here it Is:
1. Stanford

ST. L00IE TAKES
TO REDUCE LEAD
Chicago Upsets Pace-set

By Judson Bailey
Associated Press Writer
The Bums from Brooklyn
were bruised and beleaguered
by an ambush at Chicago yes
terday. Up till then they had
hoped to parade into St. Louis
and salt away the pennant with
an Impressive display of fire
works in the enemy own yard
They had a three-game lead and
were cocky. They had lined up
their pitching staff for the Car
dinal series a week in advance.
They considered the Cubs as
close friends if not personal
relations. After all, about half
the Dodgers were former Cubs
and last Thursday, while Brook
lyn was being kept out of
trouble by a drizzling rain,
Chicago chopped the Cardinals
out of the league lead by cap
turing a double-header.
It was a terrible shock, there
fore, to have the Cubs stick a
dagger in the backs of the
Bums yesterday by winning two
games 5-4 and B-3. Kirby Hig-

The Cardinals met stubborn
opposition from the poor but
proud Phillies, yet managed to

1-0. The Cards were held to six
hits In the first game, but one
of them was a two-run homer
by Johnny Hopp and Lon War
neke and Bill Crouch let the
tail-enders have only seven safe
ties. Then In the second game
Harry Gumbcrt pitched a mas
terful three-hit shutout and a
triple by Johnny Mize followed
by Martin Marion's single in the
fourth provided all the margin
he needed.
The Boston Braves beat the
Cincinnati Reds 4-1 in 15 in

BLOCK THIS EVE

Joey Archibald, the little Rhode
Island jumping Jack, places his
world featherweight title (New
York and Maryland version) on
the block here tonight with
Chalky Wright, hard-hitting Los
Angeles Negro, as the challen
ger In a 15 round bout.
If Wright can defeat Joey,
and most local observers give
him better than an even chance,
he'll be accorded "remote con
trol" recognition as champion
by the New York boxing fath
ers. The District of Columbia and
the 40-odd stites affiliated with
the National Boxing association
will continue to rank Ritchie
Lemos as the titleholder.
It all adds up to one of those
vistas of utter confusion which
bob up so frequently along
Cauliflower lane. Washington,
I the site of the Archibald-Wright
'contest, refused to give the bout
i championship status, but New
York and Maryland did.

OREGON, THURSDAY,
SAN DIEGO KEEPS
TOP POSITION BY
(By Associated Press)
To the naked eye it might
appear today that San Diego
and Seattle are tied for the
Coast baseball league lead the
regulation three numerial stand
ings bear out the assumption by
grading both teams with an
identical .580.
This is strictly an Illusion.
Actually the San Diegans are
about as far ahead as any club
can seem to get these days in
the unrepressed scramble for
the 1941 pennant.
They stand at .5802 In the
field of higher calculation, and
Seattle at .5798, with Sacra
mento third at .5792. Thus San
Diego's hold on first place is
stronger than the Rainiers' claim
to second.
Although defeated last night
by Oakland, 4-3, the leading
Padres deserved to retain the
top soot, for Seattle was again !
lained out of a double-header
with San Francisco and no team
should win the championship in
a hotel lobby.
It was Just as tight a squeeze
at Hollywood, where Secramen
to nicked the Stars, 2-1, on Chet
Wieczorek's two-run homer in
the fourth inning.
Los Angeles and Portland
each put on a handsome pitch
ing demonstration, the Angels
winning the first game of a
double-header, 8-1, on Pete Mal
lory's seven-hit flinging and the
Beavers claiming the shorter
nightcap, 7-0, with Byron Speece
cn the" mound for a six-hit turn.
Score: R. H. E.

Cubs Belt 'Bums' Twice
New Substitution Rule Is
Defended by Grid Coaches
By Bill Bonl
New York, Sept. 11 (P; Signals off, men! There's nothing
wrong with the new unlimited substitution rule in college football
that precise stop-watcn omciaung
That'i the word today from
Walter R. Okeson, chairman of
the football rules committee,
with a supporting chorus from
Fritz Crisler, of Michigan, head
of the Football Coaches associa
tion, and Lou Little of Colum
bia, No. 1 man in the coaches
rules committee.
The misunderstandings, as
Okeson terms them, which arose
when substitutions dragged out
the Chicago and New York all
star games interminably are due
to failure to study the rule, and
specifically one of its clauses,
with due care.
"Substitutions," says Okeson,
"may be made at any time but
they can be made without pen
alty only when time is out . . .
when, for instance, the watch is
stopped by an incomplete pass,
ball going out of bounds, etc.,
substitutions can be made with-
out penalty. But if the attacking
team fails to get the ball in play
within 25 seconds after the refe
ree has placed it, that team will
be penalized. If the defending
team tends to cause delay by
sending in a substitute as play
is about to be started, it is pen
alized . . .
"In short, if there are no sub
stitutions, 25 seconds may be
consumed in putting the ball in
play. And if there are substitu
tions, not a second more is per
mitted." An Asrociated Press survey of
more than a dozen leading
coaches throughout the country
finds the majority willing to go
along.
Jimmy Phelan of Washington
says "I voted for it, I'm definite
ly for It, and if it slows up play,
I'll be disappointed."
Bernie Bierman of Minnesota
(which may not need any substi
tutes) also feels the change "is
going to be a good one."
Portland, Sept. 11 (IP) The
Oregon senior golf tournament
reached the semi-final stage to
day with Elmer Stoddard, Oscar
Furuset, Rudy Wilhelm and E.
E. Wilson still in the running.
Stoddard, the medalist, beat
Ralph C. Parker, Portland, 3

Nelson. Portland, 4 and 2; Wil
