Billy Hulen Says:
I. Pickery Takes
Final Crack At
Gridiron Games
Professor I. Pickem, peerless
prognosticated makes his final
1941 appearance today (loud
cheers), and as Lady Luck would
have it this week's batch of foot
ball fracases look like the tough
est the pickster has yet encoun
tered. But due to numerous reverses
during the season, and many
falls from the limb, Prof.
Pickem has become hardened to
misfortune, and anything that
may happen to his dozen selec
tions this week will leave him
cold and unmoved. In short, he
is a veteran at the business of
calling them wrong.
So, until next year, the Prof,
says adieu, and hopes both his
readers haven't lost as many
chips on his prognostications as
he has himself. Here they are:
MEDFORD-THE DALLES.
All season Professor Pickem
has placed the finger on the
Black Tornado, and only once
was the finger bitten by the
Ashland Grisalles. He fervent
ly hopes It is nipped again to
' night, and this time by the
'Tigers, for the Prof predicts
'that Medford will be defeated
by The Dalles In their clash
at the latter town. It looks
to him like It will be two
great prep elevens tangling in
an even-up affair, with The
Dalles having a hairline ad
vantage because of playing at
home and because Captain
Curt Hopkins will not be
available to the locals. The
Dalles, by 13 to 7.
OREGON. OREGON STATE.
The Ducks might flap their
wings with enough vigor to
drive away all the Beavers'
imell of "roses." It's strictly a
tossup, but Pickem will string
along with the Orange mainly
because of those numerous Ore
gon injuries. OSC 0, Oregon 3.
STANFORD - CALIFORNIA.
This Is another traditional battle
that could go in any direction,
but the Golden Bears don't ap
pear to have what it takes to
stop the Indians. Stanford, by
13 to 6.
ARMY-NAVY. The gobs' su
perior manpower and Bill Bu
sick should turn the tables for
Annapolis, but by the narrow
margin of 7 to 0.
WASHINGTON-U. S. C. Off
their performance against Notre
Dame the Trojans figure to be
plenty hard to handle. However,
Pickem'll take a flier on the
Huskies, by 13 to 0.
TEXAS CHRISTIAN S. M. U.
With a prayer on his lips, the
peerless prognostlcator selects
the Mustangs of S.M.U., SI to 19.

BOSTON COLLEGE HOLY
CROSS. Another traditional
game in which anything can
happen, but B. C. looks by far
the more powerful. Boston. 20
to 0.
TULANE-LOUISIANA STATE
The Green Wave has been ebb
ing and flowing all year, and
Pickem believes this is one of
the weeks it goes to town,
Tulane, by 19 to 7.
FORDHAM-N.Y.U. The Rams
will really pour it on their an
cient Violet rivals. Fordham, 33

PITTSBURGH - CARNEGIE
TECH. Both are "de-emphasized,"
but Carnegie was more
in earnest. So. Pitt, by 26 to 12.
OKLAHOMA - NEBRASKA.
Oklahoma is the slight betting
favorite here, but Pickem'll risk
a slim vote on the Cornhuskers,
7 to 8.
RICE-BAYLOR. In the South
west conference anything is
possible. Realizing that, Pickem
still likes Rice to the tune of 20
to 14.
KNOCKS OUT FOE
San Jose, Calif., Nov. 28 (JP)
An unexpected flurry of hard
blows last night excited Joe
Louis, heavyweight boxing
champion, so much that he
knocked out George Glambasti
ano, Los Angeles heavyweight
in the third round of a scheduled
four-round exhibition at munici
pal auditorium.
The business blow, a left hook
flush to Giambastlano's Jaw,
came after one minute and 24
seconds of the third round.
The excitement developed
after two rounds of colorless
boxing in which Louis shuffled
slowly around the ring toying
with his sparring partrTur.
Suddenly in the third round,
Glambastiano decided to ex
change a few blows with the
champion. He did and Joe re
taliated with a Sunday punch.
TOMMERVIK LEADS
ALL IN OFFENSE
Seattle, Nov. 28 (IP) Mar
vin "Tommygun" Tommervik,
1940 little all-America halfback
at Pacific Lutheran college near
Tacoma, Wash., will wind up
his senior year as the greatest
total offensive gainer in minor
college football.
American football statistical
bureau figures released today
show Tommervik has gained
1,762 yards from passing and
rushing in eight games, and still
has a game left against College
of the Pacific at Tacoma tomor
row night in which he hopes to
be the first to amass 2,000 yards
in one season.

For Injured Oregons
Eugene, Nov. 28 At least
half of the 20,900 football fans
fortunate enough to hold "high
premium" tickets for Saturday's
Oregon-Oregon State classic will
get wet, according to weather
forecasts made here this morn
ing. But regardless of weather
conditions and the inevitable
poor footing of Hayward field,
the lighter weight OSC eleven
continues as a S-to-4 betting fa
vorite to win this 45th meeting
between the two traditional
lntra-state rivals.
Eugene hotels and local tour
ist cabins have been reserved
for weeks, and late comers have
been forced to seek accommoda
tions as far north as Junction
City and south to Cottage Grove.
No General Admission
There were 16 tickets still on
sale when the office closed last
night, but these "horseshoe du
cats" were gobbled up early this
morning. There was little specu
lation, but mid-field tickets were
selling at $15 per pair. There
will be no general admission for
the game here tomorrow.
Through the assistance of
Colonel Bill Hayward, track
coach and retired trainer, Tex
Oliver is expected to be able to
use most of his "cripples". Hay
ward has fashioned special
braces and splints for the in
jured Webfoots. Only Ray Se
gale, regular guard, and Bill
Regner, regular end, are expect
ed to be out of the starting line
ups. The entire squad is suffer
ing from injuries, but few are
other than those naturally accu
mulated during a heavy sched
ule such as the Webfoots have
played.
"BEAT OREGON"
Corvallis, Ore., Nov. 28 (JP)
Campus fever began to soar
today in anticipation of Satur
day's football game at Eugene
between the possible Rose Bowl
ers, Oregon State, and their
final hurdle, the University of
Oregon.
"Beat Oregon" signs appeared
on cars, windows and as cut-off
lines In the Daily Barometer,
student 'newspaper, but Rose
Bowl talk was hushed.
The traditional rivalry be
tween the two schools was all
the students needed to work up
enthusiasm, and talk of bowl
possibilities was with a crossed

LONGHORNS BLASTll
AGGIES, 23 TO OAS
By Austin Bealmear
New York. Nov. 28 (JP)
The fading football season is
facing its last big day with the
problem of producing opponents
for most of the bowl contests
and settling several family
feuds.
Yesterday's second edition of
the Thanksgiving holiday fur
nished one major scrap in which
once-mighty Texas returned to
form and kicked Texas A. and
B. right out of the ranks of the
unbeaten and untied by the
score of 23-0.
For the second time in years,
I Coach Dana Bible's Longhorns
rumea a perieci record ior ineir
rivals at A. and M., although
this time the Aggies had the
southwest conference title safely
tucked away.
Another southwest entry, tail
end Arkansas, kept its season
from being a total flop by whip
ping Tulsa, champion of the Mis
souri valley, 13-6.
Fullback Jack Faubion scored
all the touchdowns for Okla
homa A. and M., which trounced
Wichita (Kas.) university, 33-13.
Elsewhere in the southwest,
Arkansas Teachers nosed Arkan
sas Tech, 7-6, McMurry blanked
Oklahoma City university, 7-0,
and Ouachita stopped Hender
son State by the samo score.'
Louisiana Tech crushed Cen
tenary, 39-7, and Chattanooga
whipped Mercer, 40-14. Tennes
see Tech shut out the Middle
Tennessee Teachers, 6-0. Florida
A. and M. scored a 27-0 victory
over Xavier of New Orleans,
Norris Brown dumped Clark,
32-0, and LeMoyne triumphed
over Arkansas State, 7-0.
Tomorrow's headliner is that
annual classic at Philadelphia
between a talented navy team
that will be playing its last game
for Coach Swede Larson and a
scrappy army eleven that will
be completing its first season
under Coach Earl Blaik.

Stanford settled today on a
starting backfield lineup 73 per
cent first string, and the betting
odds on an Indian victory in
tomorrow's big game against
California still, stood 2V4 to 1.
The final strenuous workout
found Frank ie Albert, Pete
Kmetovic, Eric Armstrong and
Bob Crane in the ball-carrying
department. Coach Clark D.
Shaughnessy indicated that is
the way they will take the field
in the test that means every
thing to Stanford's Rose bowl
hopes.
Berkeley, Cal., Nov. 28. (JP)
Sophomore Billy, brother to
veteran tackle Bob Reinhard,
appeared today to be invested
with a large measure of Cali
fornia's hopes for "big game"
victory over Stanford.
The younger Reinhard, a left
halfback, can run faster than
any of his fellow Bears, is a
skilled passer and tias perform
ed brilliantly on regular occas
ions through the season.
In the past two days, said
Coach Stub Allison, the sopho
more ball carrier has progressed
remarkably and now stands No.

ior Al Derian is nominated to
start the game, but Allison in
dicated that Reinhard would be
thrown into action at the cli

Soggy Field Expected for
Medford-The Dalles Clash
Medford's Black Tornado arrived In The Dalles early yes
terday afternoon to find that Amotan field, scene of its cli
max clash with the unbeaten and untied Indians tonight,
was wet and muddy and would probably offer insecure foot
ing at klckoff time, according to a telegram received from
Russ Acheson, assistant coach.
Russ wired that, although the i
weather was clear and cold, the!
gridiron was soggy from recent1
rains. This factor was expected
to prove advantageous to The
Dalles, who outweigh the
Tigers 10 pounds per man, ac
cording to Acheson.
The Tornado squad, when it
stepped off the train in the
Columbia river city, was met
by The Dalles band and hun
dreds of business men and stu
dents, and escorted to its hotel.
Acheson wired that the betting
on the game was even, although
most fanatics in the home town
believed the Indians would win.
However, Russ observed, The
Dalles hasn't forgotten the 41
to 0 beating they received from
Medford in 1928, and the 6 to
0 blanking they suffered here
last season in the semi-final
game of the title playoffs.
There will be no change in
Medford's original starting line-;
up, according to the telegram. !
This means that Bill Wall and :
Darrell Monteith will open at
the ends, Stan Smith and Bud
Mayfield at the tackles, Wes j
Davis and Bob Mitchell at thej
guards, Dan Winter at center,
Bob Stead at quarterback, Ik? j
Orr and Cato Wray at the half-1
backs and Cliff Jones at full
back. The 24-man squad held a light
workout on Amotan field yes
terday afternoon. Acheson 1
wired that "the team is in fine
condition and the spirit is high." 1
but at this hour, even the bet-:
ting fraternity was split on the ;
odds.
The sorriest spectacle In town !
was the ticket speculator. Every
one wants to go to the football !
game, but tickets were snapped !
up weeks ago through the reg-1
ular West Point and Annapolis !
channels and few found their
way into the hands of the mid-1
die-man.
