PAGE FOUR MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1943 TIGER REVEN 10 SHOOT FOR WIN, "Will be Satisfied With Noth ing Less" Klamath Fav ored in Friday; Contest. Reflecting the spirit prevail ing among all members of the Black Tornado football quaa which travels to Klamath Fall Friday to meet the Pelicans in southern Oregon's annual grid classic, Coach Lome Arnold said today; ;, - . "We are "going Into the ball game to win. We will be satis fied with nothing less than a victory. The entire squad is in fine physical and mental condi tion and the boys have pledged that this year's game will not be a repetition of last year's 32 to 0 Klamath victory. The unbeaten but once-tied Tigers will hold a short, taper- ing-off workout this afternoon checking their 'blocking assign ments and polishing their offen sive and defensive maneuvers. In private cars, they will leave for. Klamath at 1:30 tomorrow afternoon, and will return ' to Medford after the game, which will start at 8:15 p.. m.i v . Reports from ' the Klamath camp are to the effect .that Frank ) Ramsey's bg , eleven, which i has won four straight games in as many , starts, is also in top shape for the clash whicn may decide the championship of the southern Oregon district nnd with it the right to compete in the official state title play offs.. ... , .- .- 6000 Expected ........ - Upwards of B.QOO persons will witness the contest. Every re served seat in the Modoc field grandstand was sold oui Dy last Tuesday morning, but there will be an unlimited number pf gen eral admission ducats available rt the gate. A special section of General admission seats has been -set aside for the hundreds of Medford fans who will make the ,.B.1 tiffin. m.. The game, on the basis of 1943 performances of . the two clubs, wil pit power and speed against power and speed, with Doug Plumley and Steve Dlppel matching - their . prowess against that, of Klamath's Hank Schort- gen, Alwya Suva ana Bud Petersteiner. Eoth Medford and Klamath have stuck pretty much to run ning attacks thus lar, with botft operating from the single wing. The Tornado, however, will probably break out several "T formation plays, and one or both clubs may suddenly take to the air in surprise operations. Battle Looms An especially bitter fight looms up front in the forward walls, where Klamath will bout a six-pound-per-man weight ad vantage at 18S.1 to 179. The lines of both team are top- heavy with veterans, and It there that the game may be decided. ' Klamath, because of its more outstanding record to date, will enter the game favored to win. But, Medford fans aren't forget ting that several times in years past the situation has been simi lar, and that Medford has upset the dope to come out with the most points. Several sophomore members of the Tornado's varsity squad Jour neyed to Grants Pass last night, where the "fighting thirds" were defeated by the Cavemen re serves, 7 to o, by virtue of third-period touchdown. Officials for tomorrow' nighf s game will be Emil Plluso and Moran, both of Portland; Moe Presley of Grants Pass and Parker Hess of Ashland.

Although there Is no federal While Medford and Klamath Falls are battling it out in Klamath. Friday night, another "big" game will be played- in Ashland where the undefeated and untied Grants Pass Cave men tangle with a Grinly eleven that has won two of its three tilts. The Cavemen,' who have de feated North Bend, Marshfleld and' Bend rule slight favorites over an Ashland eleven that has walloped Weed and Duntmuir, Calif., 'and lost to Klamath Falls.. However, if .

As a result, hunters are faced with the dishearten ing knowledge that there are more birds to be had than at any time in history, but that there, is nothing to shoot them with. For those fortunate hunters who have managed to acquire a few , shells, here are the bag limits: For pheasants, four a day, eight in possession with not more than one hen In pos session at any one time; for California or Valley quail, 10 birds a day or in possession at any time one time. The season on pheasant and quail closes November 7.' With an estimated million and half ducks on Lower Klam ath and another million on Tule, not to speak of 250,000 or so geese, hunters who can find the ammunition are expected to do right well when the annual mi gratory bird season opens Fri day morning. Adding interest to the season opening is the newly-established public shooting ground on the Lower Klamath refuge, expect ed to attract a heavy quota of hunters throughout the fall sea son. Both the Tule and Low- Klamath public shooting grounds are in California, but large number of Oregon hunt ers have obtained non-resident licenses to participate in the shooting there. Archie Hull, game manage ment agent at Tulelake for the nsn and wildme service, ex plained that hunters will be per mitted to drive down the dike dividing the open and closed areas on Lower Klamath. They can proceed to the first inter section of dikes. Limited park ing space is available on the dike, and an Intersection has been graveled to permit turn ing. Fr the convenience of hunt ers from the Butte valley coun try, a road will be open from that district to the Lower Lake shooting grounds by way of Coyote butte. This is a dry weather route, only, and in wet weather hunters from Dorris will have to go around by the Midland road. Klamath Falls hunters will approach the Lower Klamath lake refuge through Midland and along Lower Klamath lake. or by way of the Merrill road. Hull said that the shooting ground on Lower Klamath is alive with ducks. Bridges have been built over the barrow nits along the dike for convenience of hunters. . Hunters were asked by Hull to refrain from shooting from the d)ke or roads, and warning nave been posted. The state line, which does not alwavs coincide with the state line dike. nas aiso been posted In the re fuge area. Due to manpower shortage. the fish and wildlife service will not operate hunters checking stations this year, but there will be an augmented force of patrol men in the area and rigid ob servance of the rules was urged by Hull. Hunters were reminded they must have duck stamps if they are over 16 years of age. Name of the license should be written in ink across the face of the stamp. The hours of shooting are from one-half hour before sunrise un til sunset. Bag limit on ducks Is 10 In the aggregate of all kinds but not more than one wood duck, or more than three singly or in the aggregate of redheads and buffleheads. No hunter can possess more than 20 ducks In the aggregate and not more than one wood duck, nor more than six of other or both of redheads or buffleheads. The bag limit on geese or brant is two in the aggregate of all kinds found here, but any person may posses not more than four geese, including brant ; C. LYBISCHOFF, Trav.

Make Provision for Orchard Cover Crops Unless there Is a good natural cover crop growing in the or chard, some crop snouid be seed ed as soon as possible. Common or Hungarian vetch sown alone or with grain is the most com monly used cover crop. When sown alone, use 60 pounds of vetch seed per acre. If used with grain, sow 40 pounds of vetch and 30 pounds of grain. Order Now For Commercial Fertilisers . If you are going to use com mercial fertilizer it slfould be ordered now so it can be applied this fall. The government regu lations prohibit the use of more than 160 pounds of nitrogen per acre on bearing fruit trees. This is roughly 800 pounds of am monium sulfate or 450 pounds of ammonium nitrate per acre. It is required that these ma terials be sold in the ratio of 60 per cent ammonium sulfate and 40 per cent ammonium ni trate. The most, general -practice on bearing trees is to use five pounds of ammonium sulfate or three pounds of ammonium ni trate per tree. Less ammonium nitrate is required as it is richer in nitrogen. , Fall application on pear is preferred. Anytime now would be suitable for its use. If its application 1 delayed until spring, it does not show it full benefit on the tree the same year. For peaches or sandy soil, the application may be delayed until very early spring, but should be applied by February even on sandy soils. By C. B.
