PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MATT, TRTBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 194.. Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: All Conference Clubs See Action Coming Week-End The annual autumn madness, otherwise known as the football icason, will officially arrive In southern Oregon this week-end All four Southern Oregon con ference elevens will go to tho port against competition of varying degrees of potency, and after the firing Is completed fans will have some knowledge of how their favorite clubs fig ure to perform during the re mainder of the campaign. For Medford, Ashland and Grants Pass, games this week end will mark their first of the 1941 season. For the fourth member of the loop, Klamath Falls, it will be the second start of the current schedule. Klam ath opened with a IB to 13 con quest of Chlco, Cal., last Friday night Medford's Black Tornado, de fending conference champs, will entertain the Weed, Cal., high school Cougars, and while little or nothing Is known regarding the Californians, the locals are expected to open their season with victory. It may be a tough battle and again it may not, but the Bowerman squad figures to cop against a team hailing from a school consider ably smaller than the South Oakdale avenue Institution. Ashland high's Grizzlies will make their debut against the Lakeview Honkers Friday night on fine new turf gridiron on Walter Phillips field in Ashland, and under a new coach, Frank O'Neal, former Pacific univer sity athlete. The Grizzlies will open tho season with a veteran team averaging 137 pounds per man, the line scaling 160 and the backfleld 192. Every position but right guard will be filled by a letterman. Lawrence Hall will be the lone non-stripe win ner In the Grizzly starting line up. Incidentally, Russell Hawk, 190-pound 1940 Ashland cen ter who attended Medford's Lake o' Woods training camp and had planned to transfer here, has returned to the Grlssly lair and apparently has given up his idea of com ing to Medford. Hawk, be cause he missed most of the Ashland practice sessions, ts listed on the second team, but is expected to break into the starting lineup before long.

STORE PAY LESS AND DRESS BETTER Deer Reported a new coach, Justin Weakley, will travel to North Bend for a Saturday afternoon contest. Last season the Cavemen, with lone of their finest elevens in history (only defeat was at the hands of Medford, 20 to 6), blanked North Bend by an 18 to 0 count, but may find the going tougher this year, i Almost to a man the 1940 Grants Pass starting eleven was graduated, and Weakley has nothing but a green squad to work with. However, he claims his lads have "loads of fight, and that's going to help a lot." Klamath Falls apparently has the toughest week-end game, clashing with Portland's Grant high at Klamath Falls Friday night. Grant was last year's metropolitan champ, and while not believed to be so strong as in 1940 the Pelicans will un doubtedly have their bills full with the big city club. All Southern Oregon confer ence teams will play on turf for the first time in history this season. Following in the foot steps of Medford and Klamath Falls, who pioneered the grass gridirons, Ashland and Grants Pass put in grass last spring and their velvety fields are ready for the pounding of cleats Football Briefs Corvallls, Ore., Sept. 18. (IP) Oregon State's Coach Lon Stiner shed a tear for newspa permen today. The boys in th press box who must keep track of substitutions have his sym pathy, he assured them, at the same time announcing that he expected to pour men on the field as freely as the size of his squad would permit. Most traveling squads will be larger this year, he said, since the unlimited substitution rule makes it feasible to carry spec ialists who will be able to call the play they are sent in to execute. Eugene, Ore., Sept. 18. (IP) Roy Dyer, two-year backfleld letterman, was lost to the Uni versity of Oregon squad yester day by recurrence of an old knee injury. He was the fourth back to drop from the squad and Coach Tex Oliver has started training his remaining players to handle double assignments. Seattle, Sept. 18.

Kit k I villi the 'VV- I '517- rrt MEN n INTER ONE Bag Limit One Blacktail Or One Mule Deer Does Available In Klamath Co. As hunters oiled their rifles and checked over camping equipment for the opening of the 1941 deer season Saturday, reports from the state police and the Rogue River National Forest headquarters indicated that the game would be more plentiful than last year, and possibly more so than in many previous years. The season will close October 25, inclusive, the same as in 1940. Rogue River National Forest headquarters cited three reasons why there will probably be more deer roaming the moun tains in southern Oregon this season than last. Namely, be cause of the mild winter in 194U-41, thus allowing more deer to survive; the large num ber of deer seen by forest visi tors and Rogue River National Forest employes during the sum mer, and because of the fact that more persons have been employed during the past year, which would presumably cause a decrease in the number of deer killed out of season for food. Attach Coupons The bag limit this year will be the same as last, one black tail or one mule deer having not less than forked horns. Both deer coupons from the general hunting license must be attach ed to deer of either species when killed, according to the Oregon state game commission. A special gun regulation this year makes it unlawful to use shotguns loaded with buckshot or bird shot to hunt or kill any big game. A limited doe season will be held this year in the Fremont area in Klamath and Lake counties, and in portions of Grant. Cook and Wheeler coun ties. The commission reports that 3,800 tags for does have been sold, and emphasized that all hunters possessing doc tags must register at checking sta tions before entering the hunt ing area, and must again regis ter upon leaving the area, re gardless of whether a kill was made. Antelope Season Antelope hunting will be per mitted in two areas. In the first, the season will open, Sept. 22 and close Oct. S in that part of Malheur county south of the Burns-Ontario highway. The other will open in portions of Lake and Harney counties Sept. 28 and will continue through Oct. 5. The 3000 special ante lope tags authorized is nearly exhausted, the game commission reported. NIXON IS APPOINTED MINES COORDINATOR Salem, Sept. 18. A') Ap pointment of Earl K. Nixon, state director of geology and mineral industries, as emergency coordinator of mines for Oregon was announced today by Gover nor Charles A. Sprague. who made the appointment at the re quest of the federal office of production management.

Pope Not Asked to Condemn Hitlerites Rome, Sept. 18 (JP) A re port published In the United States, but not carried by the Associated Press, that Pope Plus XII had refused a request of President Roosevelt that he de clare a war against Nazism Justi fied, was denied at Vatican City today.

RALLY IN NINTH TO RETAIN LEAD By Judson Ballsy Associated Press Write. The favorite flippancy of baseball players is "I'd rather be lucky than good" and this little crumb of wisdom explains why the Brooklyn Dodgers still are in first place in the National league and seem destined to win the pennant. They are fate's fair-haired boys even though their lead has shrunk like a dollar shirt in the last couple of days. Their daily adventures read like chapters out of a story book and yesterday they outdid that fictional piker, Merriwell, again. Brooklyn was on the verge of dropping its second straight game, trailing 3-1 going into the ninth inning at Pittsburgh. A loss coupled with a double vic tory by St.' Louis over the Bos ton Braves would have transfer red first place to the Cardinals by a tiny percentage margin. But what happened? You guessed it, the Dodgers scored five runs in the ninth inning and beat the Pirates 6-4 to retain a one-game margin over the Cards, who whipped the Braves 6-1 and 3-2. The Cincinnati Reds bagged a doubleheader from the Phils 1-0 and 3-2. The Chicago Cubs climbed on the New York Giants 7-3. In the American league the New York Yankees clipped the Chicago White Sox 5-3. The Bos ton Red Sox edged out Cleve land 3-2. Detroit downed the Philadelphia Athletics 3-2, and Washington whipped the St. Louis Browns 9-8 in 10 innings. TERRY CLINCHES COAST HILL TOGA Los Angeles, Sept. 18. (IP) The 1941 pitching crown of the Pacific Coast league belongs to Yank Terry, San Diego right hander. Terrv. 28-vear-old newcomer to the lolp, had 25 wins against eight losses through Tuesday. That give him an average of 758. Hal Turpin of Seattle, with a record of 18-6 and an average of .750, might beat him out in the percentage department but he can't approach that 25-win record. Dick Barrett of Seattle, cur rently boasting a 19-12 record, won the coast hurling crown last year. An early season In jury hampered his chances of repeating. Francis Riddle, la the fourth tj. S.

They admitted that normal crews never could have packed the landings. Tons of fish would have spoiled had not office workers, mill hands, bus drivers folks from all walks of life come to the rescue. When their regular day's work ended, they hustled to the canneries and worked the night shifts. They enabled the packing plants to work at peak speed 24 hours a day. Packers said many women who never saw the inside of a cannery before, worked on the belt lines. GOLD HILL LICENSE Portland, Sept. 18.

MacKenna Rainiers Virtually Rivet Third Pennant By Blanking Angels By the Associated Press Seattle had its third straight Coast league championship vir tually within grasp today, after hustling into first place late in the season with an astonishing rally. With six games yet to play, the Rainiers hold a three-game lead over second-place Sacra mento. By winning three more games, they can clinch the pen nant even if Sacramento snouia capture all five contest remain- in. on its schedule. Seattle took over the lead two weeks ago, overhauling 16 game advantage the Solons held at mid-season. The Rainiers in creased their margin a full game last night by defeating Los An geles, while Oakland thumped Sacramento and reduced the Solons' pennant chances to the mathematical category. The Rainiers edged Los An geles 1 to 0 in the opening game of a double-header, and played to a scoreless tie in the night cap, which ended in the eighth inning because of the Coast league curfew. Oakland blasted a tie in the ninth inning and nipped Sacra mento. 6 to 5. Mel Duezabou singled, stole second, and scored the winning run on Bill Rigney s single to center. Hollywood set San Diego down for the third consecutive time, 5 to 1. Portland collected six runs on errors, and defeated San Fran cisco 6 to 4.
