It'i good thing yesterday
was Thanksgiving instead of to
day, because Professor I. Pick
em, p e e r 1 s a prognosticates,
could not find It in his heart
today to give thanks to the
nation's schedule-makers for the
toughies they have lined up for
this week-end.
Yep, tomorrow's gridiron con
testa from one end of the coun
try to the other figure to test
the Professor's predicting pro
wess as never before, and if he
misses 12 out of 12 don't say
he didn't warn you. Here goes:
Oregon-Waihlngtoni It looks
bad for the Ducks. They're
plenty crippled up, and Curt
Mecham may not play enough
to raise a good sweat. The
Huskies will be In their own
back yard, which always makes
some difference. It all adds Up
to a 6 to 0 Washington victory,
gol darn it
Oregon State-Montanai The
Crisslles looked very good In
trimming Idaho last week,
and might give the Baavers
more than mare workout.
On the record, though. It can't
be anything but an Oregon
State call, by 20 to 0.
Washington Stat e-aontaga:
This traditional gam has pro
duced probably more upset
down through the years than
any other, but Pickem ca 1't see
the Cougars dropping this one
to Goniaga. W.S.C. by 13 to 0
Santa Clara-U. C. L. A.i The
Bronea seem to have regained
their winning form, so the
Prof'll take 'em by a 21 to 13
tally.
Notre Dame-U. S.C.i No hope
for the Trojans, not against on
of the nation's greatest elevens.
The Irish will win as they
please, 20 to fl.
St. Mary's-Fordhami No hope
for the Gaels either, although
they usually play their best
fame of the season against the
Bams. Fordham, by 19 to 7.
Minnesota-Wisconilm There
IS hope for Wisconsin here, as
they have proved they can
core, and plenty. However.
Pickem's looks for the Gophers
to score plenty too. Mlnny S3,
Wisconsin 14.
Penn-Cornelh A tossup. A
pure and unadulterated guess,
Penn, by 12 to 7.
Colgate-Columbia! The un
dermanned Lions of Lou Lit
tle, despite their bruising
game against Michigan, will
upset Colgate by a 14 to 13
(core.
Michigan-Ohio State) Michi
gan, because of Kuzma and a
great line. Score: Michigan 20,
Buckeyes 7.
Prlnceton-Navyi Closer than
it looks. Navy to win, 13 to 7,
iter a real struggle.
Harvard-Yalet Also might be
closer than expected. Stringing
long with the Crimson, how
ever, by 13 to 0.

Medford Alumni Eleven
STEAD CONVERTS
Locals Score Twice In First
Period Davis Respon
sible For Pass Tallies
By the margin of Rodney
Stead's line-smash conversion of
a point after touchdown, Med
ford high's alumni eleven de
feated the Grants Pass alumni.
13 to 12, In their Thanksgiving
day clash at Grants Pass yester
day morning before some BOO
customers.
The all-Important extra point
was made after Medford took
the opening kickoff and march
ed 81 yards into the end zone
Stead, playing left half for the
locals, tallied the touchdown on
four-yard blast off his own
right tackle; then, added the ex
tra point by going over his own
right guard.
Before the first period was
over Medford scored again to
take a 13 to 0 lead. After a
Grants Pass fumble was recov
ered on the Grants Pass 28,
Leo Sakralda tossed a 20-yard
forward pass to John Saulsber
ry, who eluded the safety man
and went over for the touch
down. Burden Scores
With Bill Davis, University of
Oregon frosh fullback of this
season, leading the assault, the
ex-Cavemen came back to reg
ister their first touchdown a
minute before the half ended.
Davia broke through for 25
yards, then flung an aerial that
Quentln Burden grabbed in the
end zone. A pass for the extra
point was Incomplete.
There was no scoring In the
third period, but In the fourth
Grants Pass again reached pay
dirt, and again it was Davis
who did the Job. He broke off
his own right tackle and raced
62 yards through the Medford
secondary for the touchdown.
Davis attempted to add the ex
tra point and deadlock the score
by going through the line, but
Floyd Baker and Art Wlnetrout
crashed through to smear him
for a loss and that was the
ball game.
Coaches Coach
Coaches of both teams, Bill
Bowcrman of Medford and Jim
Welch of Grants Pass, had al
most the free run of the field.
Time after time they walked
out with small cards upon which
were diagrammed plays, and
there was much sideline coach
ing. None of the "old fellows"
were seriously hurt, but Baker
of the locals suffered a scratch
ed eyelid.
There la a possibility that a
return game will be played in
Medford In the near future.

The game, secondary to the

By the Associated Press
College football, coming in
double doses this week because
of the first of the Thanksgiving
holidays, got through the appe
tizers yesterday but the main
course comes tomorrow.
Two individual performances
yesterday overshadowed any
thing presented in the way of
team achievements on the slim
holiday card for the states
which called It Turkey day.
At Chapel Hill, N. C, Bullet
Bill Dudley slammed the door
on a brilliant collegiate career
by leading Virginia to a 28-7
victory over North Carolina.
Dudley, backfield ace of the
Cavaliers, made his final ap
pearance his best. He scored
three touchdowns, two on long
runs, passed to the fourth and
kicked all four extra points.
The other solo stunt was en
gineered by Wilson (Bud)
Schwenk, the passing star from
Washington University at St.
Louis, who pitched his team to
a 28-7 triumph over Missouri
Mines and himself into foot
ball's hall of fame. '
Schwenk went Into the game
needing only three completions
to break the national record of j
93 successful passes in one
season, set in 1838 by Davey!
O'Brien of Texas Christian.
Hits Doien
The Husky halfback cocked
his right arm 23 times, and 12
tosses hit their mark for a total
of 108 yards, setting a new rec
ord of 103 completions for
single year. Two passes went for
tallies and he scored the other
two touchdowns himself.
Tomorrow's program may
