Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: Pickem Selects Tigers, Beavers, Wildcats To Win Fighting to keep hii fast dwindling percentage above .700, Professor I. Pickem makes the following passes at a dozen of this week-end's gridiron at tractions: MEDFORD-SALEM. The an swer to the question, can they come back, will be gVen to night. The Tornado, Pickem believes, CAN come back. He also thinks they will. But, and 'tis a fact, the Vikings will prove to be the toughest team to go against the locals this year, and that includes Ashland. The Tigers will have to be at their very best to nose out a 14 to 13 victory. ASHLAND-ASTORIA. On their record thus far, the Fishermen haven't enough stuff to beat the Grizzlies. But Ashland might be "down" mentally and physi cally after the gruelling Med ford struggle. Nevertheless, a weak ballot for the Grizzlies, 7 to 0. OREGON STATE-CALIFORNIA.

Tholr surpassing quality plus their surprising economy sets them apart from all other "Torpedo" models To all men anil women who want a motor car that is dis tinctly without being ex pensive, Chevrolet proudly presents Its two new Fleetline models the new Fleetline Aerosedan and the new Fleet line Sportmnster. These smartly styled motor cars are the newest of all "Torpedo" models. ... In fact, you'll call them "Tops in Torpedoes!" Superlative grace and BUY THE LEADER Tornado Battles Massive Vikings Here INELIGIBLE DUE TO Ike Orr Moved To Fullback Dippel Placed At Right Half Turf Mushy. "We should be able to stay within three touchdowns of them." Thus did Coach Bill Bower man sum up Medford's chances today as the Black Tornado, desperately crippled in the back field by the announcement that Cliff Jones, regular fullback, was ineligible for the clash, prepared to face Salem high's massive Vikings at the stadium tonight in the final home game of the 1941 season. The kickoff is at 8 o'clock. Jones, the coach explained, was declared ineligible for the contest because he was "down" in two subjects, and said there was absolutely no chance the 166-pound Junior would get into action. ! To make this blow all the more severe, the mentor said that Jimmy Glenn, guard and second-string fullback, would be unable to see service at fullback because of Charley horses in both legs. So, with both his fullbacks sidelined. Bowerman I has shifted Ike Orr, regular I right halfback, into the fullback I spot and inserted 154-pound ; hteve Dippel, urr s understudy. into the right halfback slot. "Tough Job" "It will be a tough Job for Orr tonigtit, as he hasn't been playing fullback and hasn't had time to thoroughly learn the assignments on the T' plays," the coach stated. "He knows the Notre Dame box fullback assignments because he played fullback last year, but on our T plays I don't know what will happen. We'll Just have to hope for the best." The balance of the Tornado lineup is in good condition, the coach said, and added that Wes Davis and Stan Smith who beauty distinguish their new Fleetline Bodies by' Fisher, their dashing Fleetline de sign, their exceptionally com fortable, 3-couple roominess and their fine-quality "Fleetweave" upholstery and appointments.

With the stadium turf almost certain to be mushy after the rain, both elevens will probably be somewhat handicapped on I offense, as both rely on speed, ball-handling and passing. On defense, Salem's slight weight advantage in the line and back' field may prove valuable.

CHEVROLET AIDS NATIONAL DEFENSE Y lr I u Ex-Waferboy Third Best Aerial Artist; Tommervick Second By Gail Fowler Seattle, Nov. 14. (P) As a waterboy, about the only pass he ever made was with a wet i towel until one day Head Coach Fuzz Merrltt of Pomona college saw him flinging left handed passes to an assistant manager. So the erstwhile waterboy, 149 pounds of him named Billy Kern, was drafted for halfback ; duties a few weeks back, and with a losing club Rehor has completed 77 passes out of 156 attempts for 831 yards. In second place, but with much more effective tossing and playing for a team that's won 17 straight, is Marvin "Tommygun" Tommervik, the little all-America halfback from Pacific Lutheran enlleep near Tacoma, Wash. Tommervik has attenuated as manv as Rehor has complete 77 and found hie target with 45 of them for the high total of 898 yards. With Tommervik's 516 rush ing yards, he's amassed 1,414 yards to lead the minors in total effense. Since his team signed to play College of the Pacific at Tacoma November 29, Tom mervik has three more games, including tonight's against weak .WengeriLinfield, in order to become the first in bureau history to amass 2.000 yards in one season. T FOR TITLE By Austin Bealmear New York, Nov. 14 (IP) Gus Lesnevich of Cliffside, N. J., and Taml Mauriello of the Bronx swap punches for the second time in three months tonight in a battle for the world's light heavyweight crown which Le nevich wears with the approval of both the N.

Lesnevich was recognized as the light heavyweight ruler by me national Boxing association when he tied into Mauriello last August. That fight drew the blessing of New York's state athletic commission, since Mau riello was regarded as the out standing challenger after Billy Conn stepped down from the 175-pound throne. STEELHEAD.
