Newspaper Page Text1 PAGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, FRTDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1941 Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: Tornado Returns And Coach Claims Line Too Green Cutting short their Lake o' Woods conditioning camp by one day, Medford high's Black Tor nado football squad returned to town yesterday and the first thing Coach Bill Bowerman of fered In the way of Information was that "we didn't get much done ... the line is too green and It will be at least two more weeks before the team is organ ized into anything resembling a good outfit." With the opening game against Weed, Cal., coming up next Fri day night under the local can dles, Bowerman plans to send the squad through plenty stiff practice sessions every afternoon beginning Monday. He hopes the locals will give a good ac count of themselves in their Initial clash. After nine days of condition ing exercises, interspersed by a small amount of actual battling, the mentor was able to give a tentative starting lineup, repre senting those players who showed to the best advantage at the ramp. It looks like this: Dan Winter, center! Roger Barker, right guard Bob Mit chell, left guard) Ray Case beer, right tacklet Bill Wall, left tackle; Bob Young, right endt Curt Hopkins, left end: Bob Stead, quarterback) Ike Orr. right half; Cato Wray, left half; Jimmy Glenn, full back. Bowerman qualified the above lineup by explaining that Glenn actually looked like the best right guard, but that he hadn't worked there a great deal. He added that Russell Hawk, a transfer from Ashland, might be shifted from center to a tackle position, and that Bud Mayfield. a transfer from Woodland, Cal., performed nicely at tackle. Following closely behind this first-look "varsity" were Hawk, Bayliss and Pope, centers; Davis, right guard; Anderson, left guard; Stan Smith and Hawk, right tackle; Reynolds, right end; Kicks, left end; Bob Mitchell and Faker, quarterbacks; Dlppel and Xing, right halfbacks; Adams I id Pete Orr, younger brother o Ike Orr, left halfbacks, and Cliff Jones and Steve Isaac, full backs. Stan Smith, 193-pound tackle who played for Junior high here two years ago and for McCloud. Cal., high last season, was said by Bowerman to possess all the physical equipment necessary to become a very fine ball player, but that he lacked "the hustle and desire to pull himself out of a rut he probably got in at Mc Cloud, where he was undoubted ly spoiled into believing he didn't have to put out to make any ball team." Bowerman said, "Smith shows fine possibilities, but If he, doesn't change his ways and get' In there and hustle and fight he will be more of a detriment to the squad than an asset. For his own sake I hope he starts playing like he can. Only one bad injury occurred during the nine days at the ramp. Art Johnson, a right guard, slipped the semi-lunar cartilage in his left knee and will be forced to take things easy for two more weeks. Thanks to the grub shoved at the squad by Cook Jack Cum ming, most of the lads added from five to 12 pounds to their heft. The squad picked up an average of about six pounds per man, Bowerman estimated.

POLLET St Louis, Sept. 12. VP) A scintillating 20 -year -old southiaw only a month re moved from the Texas league shoulders the burden of St. Louis' dented pennant bid today In the second clash of a vital three-game series with the leading Brooklyn Dodgers. Howard Pollet, whose cool ness belies his youthfulness and brief experience In or ganized baseball, was Manag er Biily Southworth's choice to oppose the veteran flat bush flock in the game which may make or break the Red Birds title aspirations. Against him gesturing Leo Durocher, boss of the Brook lyns, planned to use Curt Davis. Like Durocher, he formerly was with the Car dinals. By Judson Bailey Associated Press Writer The stupendous struggle of the St. Louis Cardinals and Brooklyn Dodgers for the Na tional league pennant keeps pil ing climax on top of climax. Yesterday the Dodgers battled to a 6-4 triumph over the Car dinals In 11 innings of baseball a tense and thrilling as any world scries session could be and yet their series has two more contests to go and as much remains to be decided as though the season were in Its ii.'fancy 33rd For Dolph The difference between the two teams yesterday was Just two men Dolph Camllli and Dixie Walker of the Dodgers. Camilll clouted his 33rd homer with two on to climax a four run rally in the fourth inning Walker singled with the bases loaded in the 11th for the win ning runs. Ernie White, young Cardinal lefthander, allowed only seven hits owl the long route. Yet his hurling actually was not as effective as that of fat, 40-year- old Fred Fitzsimons, who gave up 10 hits before being removed for a plnchhltter in the 11th. In the other National league action, the New York Giants crushed the Cincinnati Reds. (1-0. with four-hit pitching by Bob Caipentcr and a five-run fifth inning. The Pittsburgh Pi rates and Boston Braves divided a doublcheader. The Pirates took the opener, 7 3, scoring four runs In the second to make Ken Heintzelman's task easy. In the nightcap Tom Earley pitched a 10-0 shutout for the Rra-es, with the Pirates making six errors. Yanks Lose The Detroit Tigers even their season's series with the New York Yankees at 10-all by wringing out a 9-4 decision in 12 nlnings. Herman Besse rejoined the Philadelphia Athletics and clip ped the Chicago White Sox, 2-1, in a pitching duel with Johnny ligney In which each Rave six hits.

(This is another in the series of Friday articles by Sparky Bourque. manager and profes- 'sional Instructor of the Medford back over the center of balance. To stop, the skater may use several different ways. First and easiest Is the "snowplow," done M Pointing the toes inward and tilting the skates to cut on the inside edge. The knees should be well bent and the weight back on the heel of the blade. Another is the hockey step, done by turning the body side ways, keeping the skates par allel. The blades dig into the ice, one on a inside edge and the other on an outside edge. The beginner should afoid skating fast as it tends to give him an awkward appearance and he does not make proper use of his edges. The skater should keep time to the music at all times, this will give him a smooth and graceful glide. Every skater should learn to do the "Dutch roll," done by crossing the left foot over the right while skating on an out side edge. After a long glide the skater crosses the right foot over the left. This little figure will give the skater surer use of his edges. Next the skater must learn to skate backwards. To start, the skater lifts the left foot slightly off the ice with the weight on the right foot. He pushes against his right JS WW inside edge and strokes to his left foot which Is on a deep outside edge. Next he pushes on that left outside edge and glides over on the right out side edge for a long glide. The skater must guard against skat ing on the inside edges. The skater may overcome this ten dency by leaning his body to ward the outside edge on each stroke. The weight should be kept well back on the heel when skating backwards. It is also advisable to learn the backward "Dutch roll," skated by crossing the foot in back of the other much the same as the forward "Dutch roll." The skater must keep well on his outside edges. The sooner the skater learns to use his edges the sooner he will become a good skater. Skaters of Medford are band ing together to form a Rogue River Valley figure skating club. Date of the first meeting will be announced later. stoddardTwHhel.m reach golf finals Portland, Sept. 12.

The Ralniers teeter two per centage points above San Diego and three above Sacramento, but there was no assurance they could maintain equilibrium any longer or any better than their two predecessors on the high wire. Dividing a double bill with San Francisco last night backed the northern club into its pres ent position, for while this per formance was in progress, San Diego lost to Oakland for the second time in four games this week and Hollywood similarly evened Its series with Sacra mento. . San Francisco went 11 in nings to a 7-6 decision in the first game, - and the Rainiers scored on a last-chance pinch single for their 3-2 victory in the nightcap. Oakland called on Stan Cor bett's four-hit pitching to sub due San Diego, 2-1. Although never behind, Hollywood barely outlasted Sacramento, 3-2. Portland and Los Angeles were visited by rain. They will play doubleheaders tonight, to morrow and Sunday, as will Seattle and San Francisco, in an attempt to compensate for previ ous postponements. HOW THEY: Pacific Coast W. L. Pet.
