    SIX MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE
Friday. Oct. 27, 1844
SOKES I
TORNADO BATTLES
CONFERENCE LEAD
Grants Pass Cavemen, fresh
from their first victory of the
season, will face the rambling
Medford Black Tornado on the
local turf tonight, beginning at
8 o'clock. It will be a Southern
Oregon conference game.
A victory tonight will cinch
the league championship for the
Black Tornado, who has yet to
clay Ashland In the circuit
Grants Pass stands even with 8
win and a loss and a victory to
night will give them a lead In
league standings.
Medford will be without the
services of Marvin Doty, who
has been out of town and un
able to practice this week. Jerry
Clark is nursing a bad Charley
horse and will not be able to see
action. Bessonette, who plugs
one of the tackle spots, has a
ifpralned ankle and may not see
much service. In the event he Is
unable to play, Bill Plaskett will
be moved to his position and
Alan Klrcher will hold down
Plaskett's pass-catching Job.
Coach Al Simpson is unde
cided If Dean Sheldon will play
and if not, his tackle spot will
be taken over by Paul Anthony
or Alvin Henigan.
There has been considerable
shifting In the Tornado backfleld
with Earl Stelle taking over Bob
Watson's Job at quarterback
with Watson being shifted to the
fullback berth. Earl Barnhart
will hold down the right half
Job and Bostwlck will have his
regular left half duties.
Medford must score a victory
tonight to retain an unbeaten
and untied record and to remain
a favorite to cop district 2 honors
for a place in the semi-finals of
t a t e championship play-offs,
elated for Thanksgiving Day.
Finals will be played Dec. 2.

QUELL HOPES OF
SOUTHERN TEAMS
By Gena Friedman
United Press Staff Correspondent
Los Angeles, Oct. 27 (U.R)
The Navy glveth and the Navy
taketh away and that Is the
problem that confronts the tri
umvirate of California schools
battling for their end of the Pa
cific coast title.
The race Is wide open, but
after the leveling off process
this week end, the three-sided
battle Involving Southern Cal
ifornia, University of Califor
nia at Los Angeles and Califor
nia Is going to get even more
complicated.
Stars Lost
When the r.aval trainees com'
plete their courses this week
end, Southern California and
U. C. L. A. lose their top In
dividual offensive stars, while
the defense minded California
Bears lose two of the three key
men In their famous line. Navy
departures also hit the fourth
competing school, the Isolated
Washington Huskies, who al
ready have provided evidence
that they aren't quite In the
class with the southern mem
bers of the circuit.
Off hand It Is hard to Judge
which of the schools will be the
hardest hit, but the second go-
around In tha home and home
schedules should settle matters.
The first meetings only muddled
matters.
Bears Ahead
California, a whisker ahead
of the others because It beat
U. C. L. A. and tied Southern
California, must give up Its two
first string guards, Dick Madl
gan and Bill Hachtcn, leaving
only Center Roger Harding In
the middle of tha once great
Bear line. However, they'll be
on hand to play their finale to
morrow against Washington in
which the bears are favored.
The Trojans of Southern Cali
fornia will say goodbye to Gor
don Gray, star of last New
Year's Rose Bowl victory over
the Huskies and their number
one touchdown producer this
season. At U. C. L. A., Johnny
Roesch, the 160-pound acatback,
who has scored nine of the
team's 12 touchdowns and has
gained nearly 600 yards In five
games, Is through along with
Jerry Shlpkcy, who was begin
ning to show brilliance as a
fullback.
U. C. L. A. Hopes Up
U. C. L. A. hopes get a slight
shot In the arm from the trans
fer of Keith do Courcey, Wash
ington scoring ace, who has pro
vided the principal offensive
punch for the Huskies.
California's meeting with the
Huskies provides the Golden
Bears with a chance to enhance
their title hopes. They already
have a victory and a tie, while
U. C. L. A. has a defeat and a
tie and Southern aCUfornla a
victory and two ties.
Fliers Favored
The co-highlight game Is the
meeting on Sunday between the
March Field fourth air force
filers and St. Mary's Pre-fllght.
March Field Is a favorite, but
will have to stop 18-year-old
Julius Davis, who almost single
handedly upset U. C. L. A. last
week.
. The Uclans clash with Alame
da Coastguard tonight, Southern
California takes on St. Mary's
Kids and the El Toro Marines
meet the Fleet Bluejackets In
the other games on the week
end program.
Major League Draft Meeting
Set For Chicago Next Week
Br Jack Cuddy
United Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Oct. 27 U.R)
The most Important major
league draft meeting since Pearl
Harbor will be held next week
at Chicago, where baseball's big
wigs can grab the cream of the
minor circuits with a reasonable
assurance that Uncle Sam's more
Important draft will not claim
priority.
Whether the transactions at
the Chicago draft meetings will
have any f definite effects upon
next season's pennant pictures is
uncertain; but at least, they will
set the auction block for some
lively trading before the 1945
campaign opens.
Approximately 600 minor
players will be available for the
draft. These include such desir
ables as Otto Denning, Buffalo
catcher; Alex Mustaikis, right
handed Toronto pitcher; Ed
Levy, flrst-sacker of the Mil
waukee Brewers and former
Yankee outfielder; Billy Holm,
Los Angeles catcher, etc.
All 16 of the major clubs have
Indicated that they will send
representatives to the windy city
draft conclave; and they prob
ably will If for no other rea
son than to get a quick break on
the dickering that Is sure to fol
low. Moreover, this may be the
last draft gathering at which the
$7,500 draft price for double A
players will prevail players
from the International league,
American association and Pacific
Coast league. Owners of the
coast circuit have launched a
robust-campaign to boost the
double "A" draft price from
$7,500 to $13,000. If that re
quested price-Jump Is approved
by the Major League council, it
follows that the draft cost of
players in the lesser minors will
be elevated accordingly.

fONAL GIRL
SCOUT WEEK TO
F
In honor of Juliette Low, the
founder of the Girl Scout organ
ization in the United States,
national Girl Scout week will
be celebrated Oct. 29 to No
vember 4. Juliette Low's birth
day falls on Oct. 31. It is prob
ably no mere coincidence that
tha keynote of Girl Scouting is
group work and group fellow
ship. Mrs. Low was born in the
south of a Confederate father
and a Yankee mother. She
learned early in life that once
both sides of a question were
known tolerance was born. In
Girl Scouting, the program is
simply the medium through
which all girls get together to
know one another. Mrs. Low
began with a troop of 11 girls
in 1912. Today the organization
has reached its "million or
more mark.
Although Girl Scout Week is
traditionally devoted to activi
ties and publicity which illus
trate the major interests of the
Girl Scouts, this year emphasis
is being given on the theme
"Service to Hospitals."
National reports show that
Girl Scouts have a splendid rec
ord of service to hospitals. More
than 1,900,000 hours of hospital
aid alone were Included !n the
service "check" presented to
President Roosevelt last March.
In this community Girl Scouts
have volunteered to help relieve
the shortage of workers in the
hospitajs and their duties in
clude such tasks as making com
presses, rolling bandages, wash
ing equipment, setting trays,
etc-. The girls are well super
vised at all times. Even the
young Brownies have done their
part by collecting toys, making
scrapbooks and contriving tray
favors.
During "Girl Scout Service to
Hospitals Week" local Girl
Scouts plan to observe each of
the "seven service" days with
special accent on hospital needs.
Sunday usual church attend
ance by Girl Scouts in uniform,
also marked by special mention
In the various pulpits of the
work the Scouts are doing to
help maintain civilian hospital
service under wartime conditions.
Monday, (homemaking day)
the girls plan to work in hos
pital kitchens.
Tuesday, (arts and crafts day)
they will spend a few hours at
the Junior Red Cross, in the
making of special handicrafts.
Wednesday, (out of doors day)
Scouts plan tp bring autumn
bouquets to the hospital pa
tients. Thursday (I n t e r n a 1 1 o nal
friendship day) some of' the Girl
Scouts will call at the school
registrar office to find out how
many different nationalities and
races are represented in the var
ous student bodies.
Friday (citizenship day) sen
ior Girl Scouts will offer the"
Red Cross special assistance.
Saturday (health and safety
day) all Girl Scouts will apply
In their own homes, health and
safety rules they have learned
through scouting.
New Deal Charged
As Anti-Veteran
Columbus, O., Oct. 27 U.F9
Warren H. Atherton, past na
tional commander of the Ameri
can Legion, charged today that
the New Deal administration
has been "viciously anti-veteran"
since it took office and pre
dicted that 75 per cent of the
votes of first world war veter
ans will be cast for Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey.
Atherton, a Stockton, Cal., at
torney and director of the vet
erans' division of the republican
national campaign, charged that
President Roosevelt's hostility
to veterans began in 1933 with
the passage of the economy act
which, Atherton said, cut velc
erans' benefits by $40,000,000.
