' VI t Salem Battle Nov. 20 Trans f erred To Medford Davis To Sub For Dippel. Left Halfback Steve Dippel who suffered a leg Injury In last week's Marshfield game, is "almost definitely out of the Grants Pass tilt" here Friday night, Coach Lome Arnold of Medford's Black Tornado an' nounced today. The Tigers' chief offensive threat, state 100 -yard dash champion, will not start the game, and It is doubtful whether he will see any action at all, the mentor stated. Dippel was able to run a little in yesterday's workout, but his leg is not In good shape and Arnold fears the injury will be aggravated If he plays and gets It bumped again. Tempering this bad news somewhat was the announce ment that Salem high's Vikings had agreed to transfer the Med ford-Salem game on November 20 from Salem to Medford. Leonard B. Mayfield, principal, said bm officials OK'd the shift because of their fear the game wouldn't draw enough in Salem to pay Medford's guaran tee. Salem is in the coast dim out zone, which prohibits night football contests. Orr May Be Out Although Dippel is the prin cipal Tornado "hospital case." Arnold said that Pete Orr's bruised leg was not getting much better, Fred Ruch Jammed up a shoulder this week and Jack Baker turned his ankle slightly. Bob Davis, who has been playing guard and quarter back, will probably start in Dip pel's place and Hal Adam is slated to open at Orr's right halfback post, Arnold stated. Baker and Ruch are expected to start. Clayton Anderson, out of the Marshfield game with the flu, has recovered and will un doubtedly open at his left guard position, the mentor said.

Adieu By JACK CUDDY United Press Staff Correspondent New York, Oct. 1 U.R They said good bye to the "Cinder ella man" last night More than 350 friends from Broadway, New Jersey and Just plain Lammers' lane Joined in a fitting farewell to Jim Braddock, former heavyweight champion, and his cocky little manager, Joe Gould, who have Joined the army togeiner. Braddock key man in the, dawn of a new fight era that saw the control of big-time box ing shift from Madison Square Garden, as a corporation, to Mike Jacobs said, "I'm back on the docks again. I'm in the longshoremen's battalion of the army transportation corps." They're first lieutenants now Braddock and Gould as they go back to the docks, to any dangerous docks In any part of the world where the army sees fit to send them. As they com plete the cycle from docks to docks they're big shots, in rep utation at least. But to their friends, the big Irishman and the little Jewish pilot the ring's beloved "Abie's Irish Rose" combination are still the same salty guys who started pugilism's greatest comeback from the New Jersey wharfs in 1S34 and wound up a year later with the world's heavyweight championship. Braddock, who has Joined Champion Joe Louis and former heavyweight kings. Jack Demp sey and Gene Tunney, In service. said at the big party: "This is once when my manager has to go into actual training with me for the big fight. We report Saturday at the Brooklyn army base. Then we attend the offi cers' school at Fort Slocum for a few weeks. And, brother, they say that's a tough course." "Braddock could have become a physical Instructor, but he didn't want that," Gould said. "Jim wanted action and 1 guess I do too. So we figured the transportation corps in this world-wide war would assure us of plenty of action, and at the same time make us more valuable to our country than any other department of serv Ice." Cougars Slate Tough Scrum; Indians Next Pullman, Wash., Oct. 1. (U.R) Another tough scrimmage ses sion was on tap for Washington State today as Coach Babe Hol- llnbery attempted to smooth out the rough spots in the Cougar offense which he said fell short of his expectations in the Stan ford contest Hollinbery said he would throw Oregon plays against the Cougars until "they can read 'em in their sleep," in prepara tion for the game here Saturday. By Carl Lundqulst United Press Correspondent. St Louis. Mo, Oct. 1 (U.R) A rookie who shakes all over whenever he begins to warm up for a crucial ball game was nominated by Manager Billy Southworth to pitch for the St. Louis Cardinals In the second game of the world series today. The rookie Is John Beazley, 23-year-old freshman flinger of the Red Bird staff who won 21 games and lost only six in his first year as a big leaguer. Beazley, who loves the game so much he begs to pitch out of turn, is the cockiest of all the Cardinals despite his habitual pre-game jitters. Last spring he predicted he would be a winning regular on a staff that sparkled with talent and he made the grade when such hurlers as Howie Pollet, Ernie White. Lon Warneke and Harry Gumbert failed to live up to expectations. He is unable to explain the "shakes" but insists that they help rather than hinder him. "I'm so much on edge that I think about every pitch," he explained. "If I relaxed I might forget and throw some guy a fat one." The rangy Tennessean believes he could beat the Yankees every day if Southworth would let him pitch. The most willing worker on the staff since Dizzy and Paul Dean were going to the mound every other day, he Is confident that he is strong enough to go frequently without developing arm trouble. Beazley offers a sharp con trast to the unconcerned Morton Cooper, who was belted out in the opening game. He throws with a Jerky motion stomps his feet on the mound, kicks at clods, and walks constantly be tween pitches. When he starts, the team usually is Jittery behind him but after a few innings everyone settles down and if he gets a lead he usually stays in front. But no one can tell what the Yankees will do.
