New York. Oct. 11 ftl.R) Notre Dame. Army and Navy,
ranked as, the top collegiate football teams among 14 major
unbeaten eleven today on the basis of their records and op
position thus far.
Notre Dame, in its best early
With the exception of minor
injuries, Medford high's Tigers
came through their e to 0 Dead
locked game with Eureka, Calif,
at Eureka Saturday afternoon
in good shape and, barring prac
tice hurts this week, will enter
the Klamath Falls clash next
Friday night in Klamath in top
physical condition.
Coach Lome Arnold said
Halfback Dale Niedermeyer suf
fered a bruised arm. End Gil
Tumy a bruised leg and Guard
Jim Lynch an ankle injury.
Otherwise, the Tigers took the
game in stride, be stated.
Commenting on the battle,
Arnold said the Tornado was in
side the Eureka 10-yard line
four times, but lost the ball
twice on fumbles and twice on
downs. The locals inarched 82
yards in the fourth period, only
to lose the pigskin on downs on
the three-inch line Just before
the final gun.
On the other hand, Eureka
got inside Medford's 40-yard
line only twice, including 58-
yard pass play that led to the
Logger touchdown. Arnold said
that the Tornado's pass aeiense
was good except for that one
toss, Eureka having five inter
cepted and completing only
eight out of 33.
Following Medford's touch
down, the attempt for the extra
point was low and wide, while
Eureka's effort to add the point
failed when the ball hit the
crossbar and bounced backs, .
Baker To Play
. The Tornado will concentrate
this week on downfleld blocking
and the coach said he would
shake up the center of the line.
Jack Baker, regular quarter
back last year who has not seen
action this season because of an
early-year shoulder injury, will
be ready to go at a guard posi
tion, Arnold said. Ray Case
beer, who played three-quarters
against Eureka, will probably
be ready to step in the tackle
berth of Bill Plaskett, who will
be shifted to the other guard
berth. -
Arnold said these moves were
designed to strengthen the
middle-of-the-llne defense along
with Increased offensive pot
ency. : It was reported that Frank
Ramsey, coach of the Klamath
team which unmercifully
slaughtered Oregon City Friday
night, 71 to 0 for 1U fourth
straight victory, scouted Med
ford Saturday without making
his presence known. He was
seen In Medford Saturday night
waiting for stage connections to
Klamath.
Local fans who plan to attend
the game in Klamath were ad
vised by Principal Leonard B.
Mayfield of Medford to write
direct to Stanley Woodruff,
Klamath Falls principal, for
their tickets. In keeping With
an ODT request, no tickets for
the same will be available here,
but .Mayfield said he had re-
auested Klamath to set asme a
large block of reserved seats for
Medford fans.

St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 11 (U.R)
The St. Louis Cardinals faced
the best pitcher in baseball tn.
day and had to beat him to keep
alive their waning hopes for a
second consecutive world cham
pionship, at the expense of the
New York Yankees. -
Manager Joe McCarthv. alt.
ting in the driver's scat with a
three to one edge, nominated
Spurgeon Chandler, the sinker
ball artist, who won the opening
game at Yankee Stadium for
mound duty in an effort to close
out war-time's second October
classic.
Chandler, with the best
earned run average in the major
leagues wis season, faced Mor
ton Cooper, the Cardinal ace
who won the second game a few
hours after his father died.
Tho depth of the Yankee hurl
ing corps was demonstrated yes
terday when Marius Ugo Russo,
an Italian stringbean from
Brooklyn who bad been of little
use to McCarthy in the Ameri
can league pennant race this
year because of a sore arm, came
through with a seven-hit per
formance that gave the Yankees
Z to 1 victory In the fourth
game and their three to one
series leqd.
Russo not only took care of
the pitching, but most of the
hitting, too. He blasted two
doubles and the second one led
to the winning run after the
Cardinals, taking advantage of
two Yankee errors, had come
from behind to tie the score.
Lanier Tough
While Russo should have had
a shutout, the Yankees weren't
knocking down the fences
against Max Lanier, the chunky
southpaw who lost to Chandler
the opener, and Harry
Brecheen, the rookie left-hander,
who was charged with the defeat
The Yankees had scored off
Lanier in the fifth inning, but
with better judgment on the
part of Centerfielder . Harry
Walker would have come out of
it scoreless. Joe Gordon, goat of
last year's series whose fielding
in this one has been sensational,
hit a low line drive to leftcenter.
Walker tried to make a shoe
string catch and missed by
inches so what could have been
held to a single, playing it safe,
turned out to be a double. Bill
Dickey, the veteran catcher, im-
memateiy singled to center. Gor
don scoring. Had Gordon been
held to first on his hit he never
would have crossed the plate. '
xne uaras were lucky to tie
up in the seventh as Russo'a in
field failed him. Danny Lit
whiler doubled down the -right
field line but Sanders, despite
the fact two men were out, was
slow getting started and South
worth held him at third.
Martin Marion, the Cardinal
shortstop, was passed purposely
to fill he bases and when Frank
Demaree, pinch hitting for
Lanier, grounded weakly to
third it looked like Russo was
out of the jam. But Bill Johnson,
the rookie third baseman- and
leading hitter of the series, fum-
Diea a grounder and the score
was tied with the bases still full
of Redbirds. . But Second Base
man Lou Klein grounded out to
end the threat.
Russo then took things In his
own hands. First man to face
Brecheen in the eighth, he dou
bled down the left field foul
line, went to third on Tuck
Stainback's sacrifice and scored
on Crosetti's long fly.

RECOVERS HEALTH
E
Featured in the October 12
Issue of the "Red Fez", a publi
cation of Hlllah Temple Shrin-
era, is an article about Joe Mil
ler Beach, a Jacksonville boy
once stricken with arthritis, and
cured at the Shriners' Hospital
for Crippled Children at Port
land so that now he is serving in
the naval air corps. An editor
ial in the same paper further
describes his fight to regain
health, and his resulting achieve
ments. '
Ten years ago, at the age of
13, Joe was suddenly afflicted
with arthritis so severely that
his body was twisted and he ap
peared permanently crippled. It
was then that the Nobles of Hil
lah Temple sent him to the
Shriners' Hospital for Crippled
Children at Portland where able
physicians took the case. That
was in August, 1933, and Joe
stayed at the hospital for the
remainder of the year. Two
years later, when he was a fresh
man In Jacksonville high school,
he went back and the final com
pletion of the cure was accomplished.
Strong and well, Joe Beach
finished his Eagle Scout work,
graduated from high school, and
entered the Southern Oregon
College of Education where he
was active as a member of the
Shakespearean Festical troupe.
In 1841, Joe entered the organ
ization of the Medford Branch,
First National Bank of Portland,
and it was while he was on a
vacation trip in San Francisco
that the Japs attacked Pearl
Harbor and ha enlisted in the
navy. Taking his "boot camp"
training at San Diego, Joe later
applied for naval air corps and
was accepted. Havin completed
his elementary ground school
training at U.C.L.A., University
of Texas, 'and Edmond, Okla., he
is now undergoing Intermediate
training as an aviation cadet.
