FACE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1941. Sport Graphs o Billy Hulen Says: Tigers To Lose Eight 1941 Regs V i a Graduation Whoever happen! to be coach ing the Black Tornado next year, be it Bill Bowerman still await ing that call to active service or some other football teacher, it'i a cinch he will be faced with a considerable rebuilding Job. Graduation will take a horri ble swipe at Tiger ranks, and when the boys get through re ceiving their diplomas only three of this season's regulars will be on hand for duty next autumn. Those three art Cliff Jones, fullback; Bud Mayfleld. big left tackle and Stan Smith, the right tackle. All are Juniors this year so have one more year of com petition remaining. Slated to be graduated are both regular ends. Captain Curt Hopkins and Bill Wallt both guards. Was Davis and Bob Mitchell) the first string center, Dan Winter; the great little blocking quarterback. Bob Stead, and both half backs. Pass Pitching Cato Wray and Ike Orr. Other squad members who will walk the graduation plank are Jimmy Glenn, who saw plenty of service at both guard and fullback; Ivan Cherry, left tackle; Jack Pope, center; Lee Reynolds, right end. The 1942 situation might not ba so gloomy as it appears at first glance, however, because a flock of second and third string ers, who received plenty of ex perience this season, will return for more grldironlng. Among them are Chet Ricks and Gil Tumy, left ends; Ken Stocks, Ivan Cherry and Don Barrow, left tackles; Clay An derson and Fred Ruch, left guards; Bill Bayliss and Jim Miller, centers; Roger Barker and Jim Hoey, right guards; Ray Casebeer and Leo Miksche, right tackles; Bob Young and Darrell Montieth, left ends; Bob Davis and Jack Baker, quarterbacks; Steve Dlppel, Jack Young, Pete The famous Remington Dual plus a Third Special Head For trimming. t SVax ia 0 Second!

Bob Leonard, the red-headed sports editor of the Klamath Falls News and Herald, was in town the other day to look over I the Medford Ice Arena, and he I brought word of a Buck Ham mer suggestion that we heartily endorse. The Klamath Falls coach Is of the opinion that the annual Medford Klamath classic, in stead of being playtd to early in the season, should be In stalled as a yearly Armistice Day affair, with the games alternating between the two towns. With all due respect tu. Ash land and Grants Pass, the fact remains that nine years out of ten the Medford-Klamath game is the Southern Oregon confer ence's "big" contest, the contest to determine the championship. With this an established fact, it stands to reason that the game should be the final one of the loop schedule, instead of coming In the middle of both teams' slate like it did this year, on October 17. Besides that, it would give Medford a big Armistice Day clash every other year, against a team that couldn't be duplicated for drawing power and interest anywhere in the state. We arc all for it, Mr. Hammer. Football Briefs Palo Alto, Calif., Nov. 28 I1S Stanford not strictly by choice, may rely on a back field essentially of the power type in its vital game against California Saturday. Noted primarily for their n4 the Indiana are exoected to cail heavily on Bob Crane, Rill Shelter and Buck Fawcett to line up with Quarterback Frankie Aloert. Of the three, only Fawrett is notably fast. Coach Clark Shaughnesy re marked that Stanford has been none too successful at the four-yards-at-a-time game to which the heavy backfield is best adapted. He said, however, that there seemed no alternative Inasmuch aa ininriea tn Eric Armstrong. Pete Kmctovlc and Milt Vurinlch Albert's usual mates have made their availability uncer tain. Berkeley.

(IP) Only Left Tackle Bob Rein- hard and Center Brunei Christ ensen, of California's linemen, today appeared certain of start ing against Stanford in the foot ball game the Bears want most of all to win. Coach Leonard B. Allison said he had been unable to decide on the nominees for thelr.other five berths in the forward wall because there were at least two candldats of equal ability for each position. The No. 1 backfield already has been chosen. It Is composed of Al Derlan, left half, John Graves, right half. Jack Mc Quary, fullback and Joe Mello, quarterback.

' 're j Leaves BAND, STUDENTS WiLL GATHER FOR ROUSING SENDOFF 24-Man Squad In Good Shape For Final Game To See Ducks, Beavers. A gigantic student body rally, with the band blaring and cheers rending the night air, will pro vide a thunderous sendoff for Medford high's Black Tornado football squad as it boards the northbound Southern Pacific passenger train tonight for The Dalles, where Friday night at 8 o'clock it goes against the un beaten and untied Indians in the final game of the 1941 season. The rally will get under way at 7:30 sharp at the railroad sta tion, and for 20 minutes the students will roar encourage ment to the once-defeated Tor nado to upset The Dalles and end their campaign In the well known blaze of glory. The train leaves at 7:50. The Tiger squad, 24 strong In addition to Coach Bill Bower man, Assistant Coaches Russ Acheson and Ed Kirtley, and one student manager, will arrive in The Dalles about noon Thurs day, and will hold a light work out on Amotan field In the after noon. Saturday morning at 4:10 the squad will entrain for Eu gene, where it will attend the Oregon-Oregon State game, and will return to Medford at 7:35 a. m. Sunday by train from Eugene. ' Jones Eligible Bowerman said all the players were in good condition for the clash with the lone exceptions of Quarterback Bob Stead and Cen ter Dan Winter, both of whom have rather bad bruises. They'll start the battle, however. Full back Cliff Jones, whose grades prevented him from playing against Salem, is eligible again and will be at his regular post. Other starters will find Dar rell Monteith and Bill Wall at the ends, Stan Smith and Bud Mayfield at the tackles, Wes Davis and Bob Mitchell at the guards, Cato Wray and Ike Orr at the halfbacks. Also making the trip will be Bill Bayliss, center; Jimmy Glenn, Roger Barker and Clay Anderson, guards; Ray Casebeer and Ken Stocks, tackles; Bob Young and Lee Reynolds, ends; Jack Baker, quarterback; Steve Isaac, fullback, and Hal Adams. Jack Young and Steve Dlppel, halfbacks. Coach Bowerman was noncom mittal today over the Tornado's chances to tip over the last major undefeated and untied Oregon prep eleven, saying only that "the boys will do their best." Officials for the game were expected to be Chappie King, George Mimnaugh and either Pete Miller or Doug Lowell, all or Portland.

Nov. 26.- Out of the little, smoke-filled Sugar Bowl committee room drifted the rumor today that Texas A. and M. would meet Duke in the Sugar Bowl classic January 1 if the Aggies manage to roll back the Texas Long horns tomorrow. This lineup would match the currently listed No. 2 and 3 teams of the nation both unde feated and untied. The report was just a rumor lacking confirmation or denial. The Sugar Bowl is not confirm ing or denying anything this week, being too busy in that small board room, talking foot ball endlessly and trying to rig up the big bowl game aiready a sellout at 73.000.

Swoape Dalles 'STINKS', CLAIMS 'No Money In It Any More,' Charges Indoor Champ Suspended By USLTA. Oakland, Cal., Nov. 28. VP) "A m a t e u r . tennis stinks there's no money in It any more." Clowning Frankie Kovacs, one of the country's top-ranking tennis players, was talking, per turbed no little over the U. S. Lawn Tennis association's rul ing suspending him for alleged violation of amateur regula tions. "They can't do this to me." chided the lanky Oakland kid who puts in a daily stint at a nearby shipyard. "Did I take money? My an swer is 'Who hasn't'?' "Did I violate a rule? Yes, rule No. 38, but tell them I haven't made a foot fault in years." May Turn Pro While rumors circulated that Kovacs, along with national singles champion Bobby Rlggs, was on the verge of turning professional, the No. 2 star of the nation took a crack at the U.S.L.T.A., with which he has been feuding for years. The old fossils sit around a big heaping table of food, using up some of the money I make them, and they say, 'Let's see. who can we bar now'?", Kovacs said In an irrferview. " That fellow Kovai,' some body says, and I'm it." "They've been doing this to me for years. They always bar me when there are no tourna ments. "I'm their No. 2 attraction. and I have to work for a living. Amateur tennis stinks there's no money in it any more."

BARKER'S BARKERIZE AND FEEL WONDERFUL Tonight PLAYER INJURIES By Fred Hampson Corvallis, Ore., Nov. 26 (P) Oregon State college girded this week to defend a prior claim to a Rose Bowl bid against a University of Oregon team that is tn a steaming stretch drive. The old rivals play Saturday at Eugene, home of the Univer sity eleven which after losing its third game bounced back lustily, defeating powerful Santa Clara and knpeking Washington out of Rose Bowl contention. At present OSC and Stanford are the pace-setters in this clos est of Pacific coast conference races. Each has lost twice. The Beavers' edge lies in their 10-0 victory over Stanford last month. Although Coach Lon Stiner's eleven walloped Idaho, UCLA, California and Montana in its last four games it was no better than an even choice. Coach Jim Phelan, beaten by both Oregon teams, said last Saturday after Oregon trimmed his Washington Huskies 19-16, "that team has the finest material I have seen on any coast squad this season how did they ever lose a game?" Webfoot Coach Tex Oliver, whose imaginative offense has made his team a western favo rite, was noncommittal, saying only that he had a badly banged up ball club, that three linemen end Bill Regner, center Elliott Wilson and guard Ray Segale might not play and that his half back virtuoso, Curt Mecham, certainly would be under par. OSC had a hospital list of quarterback George Peters, blocking back, down with a mild attack of influenza, and Ceorge Bain, tackle, with a sprained ankle. BISHOP ESTATE $50,000 Salem, Nov. 26.

(iP) Closing- the books of the 1941 football-guessing contest: Thursday, Nov. 27: Texas A. and M.-Texar The Aggies have achieved their first objective, the Southwest Con ference title, but a bowl as signment still beckons and that should be surety that A. and M, will be "high" for this game even if its traditional rivalry with Texas were not sufficient. Everyone's trying to explain what happened to Texas Pos sibly the Aggies will learn noth ing permanent happened to Texas. In the meantime, A. & M. Saturday, Nov. 29: Army-Navy: This should be one of the best games of the year. Army seems to cash In more frequently on its oppor tunities. However, the Cadets appear sadly over-matched with respect to man-power and this ballot goes to Navy. Fordham-New York Univer sity: Peculiar things have hap pened in this rivalry but the Imagination simply can't con ceive of an N.Y.U. victory. Fordham, decisively. Tennessee-V a n d e rbllt: Not easy, for Tennessee has been coming along steadily in recent weeks. Still, the records can't be ignored and this nod goes to Vanderbilt. Tulane-Louislana State: This is in-and-out Tulane's weeks to be "out" but we'll run the risk. Tulane. Mississippi-Mississippi State: Conference title hinges on this one. On backfield strength, Mississippi. Georgia Tech-Georgia: Frank Sinkwich should be enough to put this one in the win column for Georgia. S t a n f o r d-Callfornla: This could spell trouble for Stanford but the Indians still have a ! chance for the Rose Bowl and rate the nod. j Oregon-Oregon State: Oregon ! State needs this one to be vir-1 tually certain of the Rose Bowl assignment. It figures to be a duel of Oregon offense and Ore gon State defense.

The Indians, sometimes bit, ingly referred to as a good team on paper because they folded so easily, "will eat, sleep and drink baseball," declared their 24-year-old new playing pilot.
