Billy Hulen Says:
Slim Chance Prep
Coach Will Get
Washington Job
TWO TILTS OPEN1
' Despite the fact that almost
never does a high school foot
ball coach make the gigantic
jump into a bead mentoring
post at a major college or uni
versity, without first serving as
freshman or assistant tutor,
some observers are inclined to
think the University of Wash
ington MIGHT dip into prep
ranks for the successor of Jimmy
Phelan, recently pink-slipped
out of his job.
The feeling persists In the
state of Washington, however,
that the Huskies will not hire
a high school coach, according
to Fred Hampson of the Asso
ciated Press.
Hampson reports a rumor
that "Leon Brighara, Seattle
prep wonder-coach and Elmer
Hugta. topnotch upstate tutor
from Hoquiam, have Joined
hands in stalking the Univer
sity of Washington job. Each
has bid himself in and each
is said to hava agreed to hire
the other as his subaltern
should he get the job. Both
men are popular, with big
porsonal following! putting on
the pressure, but the feeling
persists Washington will not
hire from high school ranks.
To this day the Bagshaw ex-,
periment is looked upon as
unsuccessful by the waters of
Lake Washington."
Offhand, we can think of only
one high school coach who
leaped directly Into a head
coaching position with one of
the major colleges, and made
good. He is Paul Brown, pres
ent Ohio State mentor whose
team finished second in the
tough Western conference. It
was Brown's first year in the
big time, however, so the meas
urement of his success must
wait for a few more year.
With the cantonment appar
ently assured, don't be surprised
if long-absent Mack Llllard re
turns to Medford and promotes
boxing . . . .Hank Anderson, Ba
ker high ca'ge coach, claims his
team is headed for the state
championship If they develop
the proper spirit determination
and self-confidence . . .
Al Could, former sports editor
of the Medford Hi-Times, has
left for Portland to take a phys
ical examination for enlistment
in the U. S. Army air corps . .
three-fourths of Duke's football
team, which found Oregon State
too tough, plan to take on easier
opponents shortly . . . they will
join the country's armed forces
to fight the Japs, Coach Wallace
Wade says . . .
Hugh Fullerton. Jr.. World
Wide sports columnist, poses
this interesting question. "Won
der if anyone has thought of
the possibility that war con
ditions will help baseball and
other spectator sports, instead
of wrecking them . . . with no
new cars and no tires to take
folks out of town, they're
likely to turn for amusement
to the places they can reach
easily the ball parks" . . ,
regattaIEd
may be reduced
New York, Jan. ;r The
intercollegiate Rowing associa
tion plans to stage the annual
Poughkecpsie regatta this year,
although the field may be re
duced to five crews.
The association's board of
stewards, meeting here last
night with leaders of eastern
Intercollegiate athletics, has set
June IS as a tentative date for
the rowing classic.
Capt. T. S. King of the U. S.
naval academy, who was re
elected chairman of the stew
ards, said the board wanted to
make sure observation trains
could be obtained and work out
other details before Inviting
teams outside the association.
Schools in the association are
Navy, Pennsylvania, Columbia,
Syracuse and Cornell. Last
year'i race was won by Wash
ington. SPEC KEENE TO SPEAK

John Gloden, banquet chairman,

E
OF BAD WEATHER
Road Conditions Force Up-
staters To Call Off Trip
Game Starts At 8:00.
The Little Sons of Southern
Oregon College of Education
will clash with Medford high's
Tigers here tonight, substituting
at the 11th hour for the Salem
high Vikings who were pre
vented from coming here for a
two-game series by terrible
weather conditions In the Wil
lamette valley. The game will
start at 8 o'clock. There will be
no preliminary, and no game
Saturday night.
Coach Harold Hauk of Salem
telephoned Coach Russ Acheson
of the Tigers this morning and
explained that because of the
dangerous condition of the Pa
cific highway In the Willam
ette valley, parent of the Vik
ing players refused to let their
boys travel to Medford in pri
vate automobiles. He added that
Salem couldn't afford to send
the team by stage, and request
ed the two games, slated for
tonight and Saturday eve, be
cancelled.
Acheson, in a hurried search
for an opponent for his team,
contacted Jean Eberhart at
S.O.C.E. and the latter mentor
gladly agreed to send his fresh
man squad to Medford. Ache
son said the cancelled Salem
games would not be played later
in the season, as both schools
have full schedules.
Frosh Tough
The Little Sons, composed of
former high school stars from
various parts of the state, are
expected to provide plenty of
stiff opposition for the locals.
The collegians have broken
even in two tilts with the Ash
land high Grizzlies, and have
defeated Grants Pass high.
The Medford coach, saying
his squad hasn't looked "any
too sharp" in practice sessions
this week, nominated Captain
Henry Herman and Darrell
Montelth to open at the for
wards. Bill Wall at center and
Don Fawcett, Lee Reynolds or
R. B. Webber at the guards.
The players are all in fine phys
ical condition, Acheson said.
Thus far this season the
Tigers have beaten North Bend
and dropped decisions to Marsh
field and Corvallis.

New York, Jan. 9 (P)
Jacob (Buddy) Baer, having
been guilty of knocking Cham
pion Joe Louis clear out of the
ring in Washington last spring,
probably will pay for his sins,
with interest, tonight In Madi
son Square Garden.
This time the towering Call
fornlan faces a perfectly condi
tioned, fight-keen Joe Louis, im
patient to wipe out any stigma
that might have attached to his
victory over Baer last May,
when Buddy was disqualified
for refusing to come out for the
seventh round.
So impressive has the big
negro beep In his workouts that
the bookmakers are offering
only 1-8 odds that he Is success
ful In the 20th defense of his
world title; 1-2 that he stops
Baer inside the IS rounds. A
good even bet is that Buddy
can't wear as well as he did In
Washington.
A crowd of perhaps 20,000,
unusually rich in ermine, social
distinction and uniforms, is ex
pected to wedge itself into the
big arena and contribute more
than $100,000 to the naval relief
society. They have been lured
into paying a top price of $30
by the cause, rather than by the
prospect of seeing a great fight.

Promising a whirlwind of ac
tion and bitterly contested bat
tles, northern division Pacific
coast conference basketball
teams will open their season to
night as Washington State starts
a defense of Its championship
against Oregon at Eugene and
Washington meets Idaho in Se
attle. Observers who have seen
Washington State play feel the
Cougars are even stronger this
year than last and are favored
to take the Oregonians whose
early season record has been
only fair. Coach Jack Friel is
expected to send Marv Gilberg,
Al Akins, Gall Bishop, Capt.
Kirk Gebert and Owen Hunt in
at the start for the Cougars;
Hobson has not named his start
ing lineup.
Huskies Liked
The Seattle Huskies are fa
vored to take the Idaho squad
easily although Coach Hec Ed
mundson insists his men are not
at the peak they attained in the
eastern tour which recently
drew the attention of the1 na
tion's sports fans when the Hus
kies whirled through an unde
feated road trip and hung up
new scoring records at Madison
Square Garden.
Oregon State will take it
easy tonight, opening its season
Monday and Tuesday against
the Cougars.

Dog Lives 25 Days
Without Food, Waier
Seattle. Wash. (U.B After
spending 23 days trapped in an
old well, Tuffy, a setter pup. was
rescued by a searching party led
by his mother.
The frantic barking of the
mother, Gypsy, led Frank Nich
olson, owner of the dogs, to the
well. From the depths he
heard the weak answering whine
of Tuffy.
Neighbors immediately organ
ired a rescue party, obtained
long ladder, and brought the
puppy to the surface.' Because
Tuffy had been in the well for
nearly a month without food or
water, except for a little rain,
he was exhausted and emaciated.
His first meal, on the advice
of veterinarians, consisted only
of a little warm goat's milk.
Tuffy was extremely fat at the
time of his disappearance and
this was credited with saving his
life. Nicholson estimated that
the little dog lost about a third
of his body weight during the
ordeal.
