ROUGH GO SEEN T DREAD IS AT ITS BEST TEXTURE.. WIIEll IT'S One of the game's most color ful wrestlers will return to Med ford armory tomorrow night in the person of Goregous George Wagner, now of Eugene, and will meet Tony Morelli of The Bronx in the six round main event of the weekly mat shindig. Wagner, who sports a gala col lection of robes, is one of the roughest campaigners now on the coast and figures to give Morelli a bad time. Neither man asks any quarter once they are in the ring and fans are looking forward to a terrific brawl. A fast scientific bout is In prospect for the middle clash when Walter "Sneeze" Achieu squares off against Georges Du- sette, coast champion. Both are masters of clean grappling with Achieu relying on his jiu-jitsu and Dusette his standing full nelson. Paavo Katonen, who like Wagner Is a former coast cham pion, goes against Antone Leone in the 8:30 opener. It will be Katonen's first trip to Medford in -several months. IS Los Angeles, May 9.

Goose MeMeeMsBaBasawasaael The Medford school board should be commended on its choice of William R. (Jake) Schaefer to take over the coach ing reins, at the junior high school next fall. Schaefer has been a personal friend of the writer for several years and it Is our opinion that the board would have to look a long way to find a better man. Schaefer is also a personal friend of Al Simpson, head man of Medford high s sports pro gram, and should fit in well with Simpson s style of ball end Med' ford's system of bringing its athletes up from the grade schools all groomed for high school play. Schaefer, whose home is In Portland, coached at community centers in Portland before the war and attended University of Oregon in 1938. In 1939 he went to Southern Oregon College of Education at Ashlanu, leaving in 1941 to do a two-year stretch with the Merchant Marine. He returned to SOCE in 1944 and will get his diploma there in June. He has been teaching basket ball and Softball at Ashland jun ior high since last winter when John Roberts, junior high coach was boosted to Ashland high mentor, ftchaefer's basketball record shows his team won the southern Oregon junior 'high school championship with five wins and three losses. His eighth grade team also won the south ern Oregon toga with seven wins and two losses. At present his softball team is one game behind Medford for the crown with win and two losses. They play again tomorrow at Ashland. Whether or not Medford will have a softball league this sum mer depends on the outcome of tonights meeting at Jennings Tire Shop. Ray Lewis, who ran the league in its last local effort. has called the meeting for 8 o'clock and asks that all prospec tive players and managers be on hand tonight to discuss the plans. Several teams are being lined up already and one or two clubs have actually been organized and are awaiting outcome of the meeting before getting down to practice. " Our bouquet of April roses goes out to Jack Lutz, Grants Pass high school pitcher, for the outstanding feat in the local sports picture during the month. With the bases loaded he hit a triple to beat Medford S to 3 here April 13. Biggest dud of the month was Tony Morelli, who fouled out to the Gray Mask April 26 after apparently having the Mask at his mercy. HOWTH STAND National W. L. Pet.

University of Southern Califor nia baseballcrs defeated the Mather Field nine of Sacramen to 9 to 3 yesterday. Use Mail Tribune Want Ada. New York, May 9 (U.R) There was mounting evidence today that the American league is stealing some of the National's thunder as the circuit noted for fine pitching. There ias been a great deal of excellent mound work in both circuits this season but most of it has been in the American. To date there have been 29 games in which the pitcher has doled out four hits or less, 17 of which have been in the American. Nelson Potter of the Browns was the latest to turn in a super lative performance, defeating tne Washington Senators, 7 to 1 in a three hitter at St. Louis last night. After George Case got an infield hit in the first inning on which he eventually scored, Potter held the Senators hitless until the ninth. In the only other major league game, the Cleveland Indians de feated the league leading Chica go White Sox, 7 to 1, for the first time this year after losing live straight to them. 50 Chinese Army Officers Attend Ordnance School Independence, MoU.R) The Chinese army has sent 50 of Its officers to study American ord nance methods at the ordnance school, Aberdeen Proving ground, Maryland, Lt. Col. A. H. Gardner, Jr., commanding of ficer at the Lake City ordnance plant, said recently. Some of the young officers came out of China by plane, over "the hump" to Assam and India, and then to the coast. Others came from the Burma jungle battlefront. Col. Gardner said that due to lack of space and because of shortages, the officers were limited to a very small amount of clothing. They have been au thorized to wear American uni forms and quartermasters sales and officers' clothing stores have been opened for them for the duration of their stay. Nearly all of them have been in the Chinese army more than five years and two-thirds of them are graduates of the Chinese Ordnance school. Students from many United Nations armies have studied at the Aberdeen school. Col. Gard ner said, but the 50 Chinese of ficers are the largest single group to attend. 3 Polite Yeggmen Give Watchman Tip Chicago, (U.R) Three "polite" safecrackers left a $10 tip for Paul Elston, watchman at a Chi cago laundry, after they stole several hundred dollars from the safe.
