PACK TWO MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 24, 1941. Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: Tigers Will Be Underdogs When Facing Indians For the first time this season the Black Tornado will be the distinct and definite underdog when It goes against The Dalles In 1941' wlndup fracas at The Dalles next Friday night. Barring the Klamath game, and possibly the Salem affair, the Tigers In all their starts this year have been overwhelming favorites to finish on top. Against Klamath Medford was rated on a par, and against Salem the Tor nado was given slight, but very slight, edge. But, facing the undefeated and untied Indians, it Is different story, and you can't get away from It Not with Captain Curt Hopkins positively "out" of the clash with three broken ribs. Not with the game being played In the Redskins wigwam. And not In view of that incredibly fine record posted by Chuck Mc- Guinness eleven. Yes, Msdford will enter this climax contest the "short ender" so far as the wagering gentry are concerned, and It's logical situation. Whether the lads can rise up and pro duce an upheaval won't be known until along about 10:1J p. m. next Friday, but If they do It WILL be an upheaval and no fooling. Via a letter to this depart ment comes a bit of praise for the fine sportsmanship shown on the field by this year's Medford club. And It's from a man who should certainly know of what he speaks an official who work ed several Tornado games but who prefers to have his name unmentioned ..because., officials are supposed to be utterly Im personal toward all teams. An excerpt of the letter follows: "... I want to write a word or two about what good sports the Medford team has been, par ticularly the past year. Strictly gentlemen from the time they started until the finish, so far as any of the officials were con cerned. All of the southern Ore gon schools consider Medford their most hated foe, and they really go out for blood when they piay. "Consequently, there might be room for a little squawk ing from the Medford team. . But that surely hasn't been the ease this year. Not a word of abuse to any of the opposing players or officials. The same goes for Bowerman. Bill knows the rules pretty well and seldom. If ever. Is there any misunderstanding between him and the officials." And, we might add, the writer of the above does NOT live in Medford, and never has. . Professor I. Pickem had a falr week-end, with nine correct calls in 12 attempts. He missed a couple and tied one, the misses being Oregon's great victory over Washington and Colgate's high-scoring conquest of Colum bia. The tie was Michigan-Ohio State. On the nose were Beavers ever Montana. Cougars over Consaga. Santa Clara over U.C.L.A., Notre Dame ever Trojans, Fordham over St. Mary's, Minnesota over Wis. consin. Pnn over Cornell, Navy over Princeton and Har vard over Yale. no seasons record, conse quently. Jumped 13 points to .712 as loiiows: Gnmes W. L. T. Pet 108 74 30 4 .712 VIRGINIHLASH LI New York, Nov. 24 (JT) BUI Dudley marched to the top of the nation's scorers last week by collecting 22 points In the Vir ginia victory over North Caro lina while Ben Collins, erstwhile leader from West Texas State, was blanked by Texas A. & I. Dudley, the gridiron toast of the south, finished his career In that game but his total of 134 points probably will stand as the record as both Collins, sec ond with 132, and Johnny Thompson of the Coast Guard Academy, also have completed their schedules. The 1940 crown went to i-ir.Z '.11, Marshall college. This year Hunt got only 54. Marvel Harshman, Pacific Lutheran, led small Pacific coast colleges with 68 points while Bill Nicklich led the Pacific coast larger schools with 66. The early ambition of Wil liam Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, was to be minister. Beaver, WILL RESULT IN Win For Oregon Will De velop Chaotic Situation Cougars Still In Running By Russ Newland San Francisco, Nov. 24 Wl Pigskin preview: Pacific coast conference football Is expected to write the most momentous chapter of the 1941 season this week-end. The Rose Bowl team may be decided on the outcome of one game. If Oregon State college defeats University of Oregon, belief prevails generally It will be named to represent the con ference In the New Year's day gridiron spectacle at Pasadena. If it falls in this crucial test the word picture will be "chaos." Defeat foe Oregon State and victory the same day for Stan ford over California would put the defending championship Stanford team In strategic posi tion to leap back Into the Rose Bowl. It would hold the most favorable record, five wins and only two defeats. Oregon State, because It Is the only eleven that plays both of the somewhat orphaned conference members. Idaho and Montana, now enjoys a standing of six victories and two losses. Up To Baavers Should Oregon State lose and Stanford win, however, the let ter's Rose Bowl qualifications will be contested by Washington State college. Supporters of W. S. C. will beat the ballyhoo drums with arguments their team whipped Oregon, Oregon States and Stanford and appar ently was the strongest in the conference wlndup, despite three defeats. The solution to this possible muddle, therefore, probably lies with Oregon State. Will it slide by its old and most bitter rival Oregon, Saturday? The answer will be written on the turf at Eugene. Oregon will enjoy whatever advantage goes with playing on Its home field. Tex Oliver's team Is as big and tough as Lon Stiner't Oregon Staters. Of the two backfields, Oregon's half back combination of Mecham and Roblln is the equal If not superior to Oregon State's clev er duo. Durdan and Dethman The difference may be between the lines and game for game, Oregon State has the margin here. Slitter's sturdles have yielded but 26 points in eight games Oregon 82 In seven so defensive ly must be given the call. Indians Play Cal Stanford rested last week, preparing for Its big game with California, Saturday at Palo Alto. So did California. Washington plays Southern California at Los Angeles in the onl yother conference clash. The northern team was a red hot favorite to win this game until the Trojans turned In their in spired 20-18 losing effort against Notre Dame last week. Southern California now will be at least an even choice. FT.

Cm Mau irlouu ast ada, Webfoot Clash May Determine Rose Bowl Team The Dalles, Newport Stay Unbeaten in Prep Circles By Matt Kramer Associated Press Staff Writer The Dalles and Newport defended unbeaten records In Oregon high school football play last week and headed for title-making games this week. The Dalles meets the powerful , Medford Black Tornado and Newport is negotiating with 1 Amity for a post-season game 1 that would decide the state class ! B title. If Medford bowls over The, Dalles, the mythical class A state championship would go by de fault to undefeated Myrtle Point.

In B play Amity chalked up Ita ninth and tenth wins of the season by measuring Dayton, 33 to 7, and Arlington, 13 to 12. j Arlington, eastern Oregon's lead- i iiig B team, then met Newport and fell, 39 to 13.
