PAGE TEN MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1941. Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: Tornado, Broncs, Beavers, Indians Liked By Pickem Tornado Faces Ashland in Annual Classic Here Tonight LOCALS MUST WIN Unstaggered and still far from flap happy after six weeks of punching it out with Kid Foot ball, Professor I. Pickem is be binning to glow with the faint hope that perhaps this is one year he will escape with his ears in their regular position, and not thoroughly pinned back. There remains about a month more of the gruelling battle be tween the professor's wits and the erratic gridiron giants, and from now on the peerless prog nostlcator plans to take each week-end in stride. Following is this week's dozen: MEDFORD-ASHLAND. Mot since 1929 hare the Crlsslles won the marbles, and it looks like they'll have to wait at least another year to do It. The Black Tornado has too much power, deception, -srv strength, weight and what it takes, generally. Ash land figures to put up courageous fight, but they'll be outclassed. Medford 27, Ashland 7.

The high-scoring locals, ac- Kifr,ulators of 188 points in six starts for a 31.3- points-per-per-formance average, will line up for the 8 o'clock klckoff heavy favorites to continue their 11-year-old domination of their most ancient football foes. Ashland hasn't beaten Med ford since 1929, a 6 to 8 tie in 1038 being the closest shave for the Tornado since that year. And few are the observers who sincerely believe that the Grizz lies, outweighed and outman ned, can bring an end to that Ashland victory drouth. Can Win Crown Medford, tonight, will be gun ning for its second consecutive undisouted Southern Oregon conference championship. A win will do it. A loss to Ash land, however, will leave Med ford, Ashland and Klamath Falls deadlocked for the crown. all with two victories and one setback. Coach Bill Bowerman of the Tornado announced two changes in his starting lineup, from that which opened against Eureka, Cal., last week. Roger Barker will be at right guard In place of Wes Davis, and Ray Case beer, 174-pound spohomore, will start at right tackle instead of Stan Smith. The mentor explain ed that Smith's practice per formances the past week had not been satisfactory. With the exception of a few minor colds, all the Tigers are In fine physical shape for the classic, Bowerman said. Coach Frank O'Nell of the Grizzlies, sending his first Ash land team into action against the Tornado, said that all squad members were In good condi tion except for colds and bruises suffered in "the tough Yreka game last Friday eve. No changes were announced in Ash land's starting eleven. Jandreau vs. Wriy Charley Jandreau, pass-pitch ing left-halfback, is expected to cause the locals plenty of trou ble, but the Tornado will coun ter with their own left-halfback, Cato Wray, whose aerials have sparked . the Tigers all season. Bud Provost, fullback, will pro vide the power-running for the Grizzlies, with Cliff Jones nd Ike Orr duplicating for the Tornado. Fjl Ellertsen of Prospect will referee, Frank Hendrickson of Klamath Falls will umpire and Dexter Russell of Talent will act as head linesman.

OP) Grants Pass high school has can celled its football game with Corvallis here on Thanksgiving day. Principal Henry Tetz said after a telephone conversation with the Corvallis principal. Injuries, absences, naval re cruiting and prospects of being unable to furnish the necessary guarantee led to the cancella tion of the final game of the season, the second to be wiped off the books. The opener with Yreka was cancelled when the jinx-ridden Cavemen had neither coach nor practice. In the six games played, the locals t'ed om and lost five, scoring against Medford, Klamath Falls, Myrtle Point and North Bend, and being blanked by Ashland and Marshfield.

The University Frosh have the edge, with a viiiory In the first game as well as a win over the University of Washing ton Husky Pups.

(AP) California's comeback bid for the Pacific Coast Conference football championship gets its field test tomorrow when the re vitalized Golden Bears tangle with Washington at Berkeley, Rolling again after an early season slump, the Bears have fought to a position where they can oust pace-setting Stanford from the title by winning their last three games Washington, Oregon State and Stanford. California's real test will be the Washington Huskies, how ever, and a win tomorrow would make the Bears' chances for a shot at the Rose Bowl look prom ising. Stanford's defending cham pions hook up with Southern California at Los Angeles in an other league clash Saturday. The Indians crushed strong Santa Clara, 27 to 7, last week, and figure to have no trouble with impotent U. S. C, victorious in only two starts this season. In two other conference en counters Saturday, U. C. L. A. runs up against Oregon State at Corvallis. and Idaho faces Wash ington State at Pullman. The O. S. C. Beavers, one of the three teams still in the championship running, are fa vored over the Uclans, but the Bruins promise to be a threat to any team with strong passing and running from the q-T formation. Washington State expected to have an easy time with little Idaho. Barker Picks Navy to Trim Irish; Tulane Over Alabama By Herb Barker New York, Nov. 7. HP) Without fear, and certainly with out hope, here are this corner's guesses on the week's football program: Navy-Notre Dame: Both un defeated though both have been tied. Notre Dame has one very good team; Navy has two. The Tars have no passer as effect ive as Angelo Bertelli has been at various times this season and on a dry field that edge might be decisive. Still it's a guess at best and we'll take Navy. Tulane-Alabama: No matter what the records may say, these two look like the Southeast's two most powerful arrays. Ala bama's Jimmy Nelson has few, if any, superiors as an all around threat but Tulane, when it clicks, seems unstoppable. Ex tremely doubtfully, Tulane. Southern California-Stanford: No reason, on the records, to look farther than Frankie Al bert and Stanford. California-Washington: You'll go crazy if you look at the comparative scores on this one. Strictly out of the hat, Califor nia. Oregon State-U.C.L.A.: This one's in the far north. Oregon State. Washington State-Idaho: Tak ing State. were scheduled to snap through a stiff scrimmage today in prep aration for the football game at Portland Armistice day against Santa Clara. The team displayed higher spirits than for several weeks at practice yesterday and Coach Tex Oliver indicated he was satisfied that it would approach. the game in top shape. - Closing Urn tot CUulfled Ads a. m.

Taking Ohio Stute. Northwestern-I n d i a n a: No possible pick but Northwestern here. Louisiana Stat e-Mississippi: Ole Miss looks good now and rates the nod in a close one.

Football Briefs Corvallis, Ore., Nov. 7 MP) Bill Mclnnis, who sparked the Oregon State reserves in their win over Idaho last week, is definitely out of the U.C.L.A. game here Saturday, Coach Lon Stiner said today. Mclnnis suffered a sprained ankle which failed to respond to treatment. However the regulars, eager to make up for their weak show ing against Idaho all of the O.S.C. scoring was by reserves showed drive and precision in yesterday's drill. Eugene, Nov. 7.
