OSC CHANCES DWINDLE FOR WASHINGTON GAME Corvallis, Ore., Nov. 8 (U.R) Chances for an Oregon State up set victory over the Washington Huskies faded today when Bob Reiman, star right halfback, dis closed he had rcinjured his foot and Quarterback Murl Anderson was unable to report. Black shirt reserves successfully ran oif Washington plays against a raw Beaver backficld in yesterday's practice. BOSTON SCORES 4 TO 3 WIN IN HOCKEY LEAGUE (By United Press) Superb goal-tending by Paul Bibeault carried the Boston Bruins to a 4 to 3 victory over the vastly - improved Toronto Maple Leafs in the only National hockey league game last night. RULES ALTERED Wichita, Kan., Nov. 8 (U.R) The National Baseball Congress today changed its rule covering semipro club jumpers to sus pend contract violators "indefi nitely" instead of for the prev ious two-year penalty period. ! Just listen to for instance: Lt ..... M,, mmmmmmmmm-: years I've found no finer tomato flavor" -Says MRS. IDA RIYNOLDS, J31I BROADWAY, SAN MANCISCO, CAUFORNIA You're really an old-time California cookT Yes, and I just wouldn't know how to coot without Del Monte Tomato Sauce especially now with food prices so high. It docs so much for plain meats, for egg dishes and fish almost anything. It costs so little, too and my family never gets fired of tomato flavor. Hove you triad other sauces? Oh, yes, I'm always willing to give new products a fair , trial. I've tried other sauces tomato juice and catsup, too. But for nice red color and good tomato flavor, there just isn't anything like Del Monte Tomato Sauce to me. I know I can always depend on it. Do you do much cooking new, Mrs. Reynolds? I certainly do and always have. Seems there's always a crowd of hungry young folks popping in here. But I alway say I can turn out a good appetizing meal if I have a little meat or cheese and a can of Del Monte Tomato Sauce in the house. I've never failed to make a hit with my Tomato-Corn Rarebit recipe. It's an old-timer, too. and the last ttitna she sad was BE SURE IT'S TOMATO SAUCE TORNADO TAPERS FOR CLASH WITH ASHLAND FRIDAY Al Simpson tapered his Med ford Black Tornado football team down to only light work outs today In preparation for the crucial clash with Ashland at Medford Stadium Friday night, starting at 8 o'clock. No matter the odds the two teams always play inspired foot ball when they get together and Simpson was expecting consider able trouble with the Grizzlies' tricky double wing formation. Darrcll Riggs, stellar left end, will be out of the lineup because of a sprained ankle received two weeks ago and Simpson was concerned that the loss of the lanky flankman might leave room for the Lithia City boys to pile up some nice yardage gains around end. Simpson said football suits would definitely be hung up and basketball practice started Mon day if the Tornado loses the Ashland game. If they win, however, and if North Bend, dis trict two's only other undefeat ed team, beats Coos Bay, nego tiations will get underway for a site to play the quarter-finals. Every effort will be made to bring the game to Medford, local school authorities said. If Medford should win from North Bend, negotiations will be started to play district four champions, cither Grant or Jef ferson of Portland on Thanks giving Day. The state finals will DEL MONTE! Medford High Grid Team Compared To Prink Callisons 1928 Eleven Under the heading of compar ing present-day athletes with those of by-gone days, Bill Hu len, sports writer with the Port land Oregonlan and former Med ford Mail Tribune sports editor, recently compared Medford high school football team of 1945 with the terrific elevens turned out of Medford high by Prink Calli son from 1923 through 1928. Hulen wrote: "Callison's teams, in those six years, compiled the almost un believable record of winning 40 games, losing only one and tie- ing one. His first defeat came in his first year there, 13 to 6, to Salem. The tie occurred the next season, 7 to 7, with Ash land. Won 31 In Row From then on through four seasons, Medford won 31 straight scraps, including a fantastic 102-to-0 triumph ovei Hoseburg in 1925 and a 94-to-0 conquest of Klamath Falls in 1927. In the six years, Medford scored 1495 points to the opponents' 174, 35.5 per game against 4.1. Twice Callison brought Med for teams to Portland for mythi cal state championship contests, and both times it wasn't even close. The first game, in 1926, resulted in a 24-to-6 victory over Grant. In 1928 it was Medford 39, Benson. Tech 0. The 1928 team is considered by many to have been the great est ever to perform in the state. Its members included Bill Bow erman, Bill Morgan, John Sprague, Bernie Hughes, Jack Hughes, Al Stoehr, Red McDon ald, Ben Harrell, Al Melvin, Orb Cooksey and Hal Anderson. Mor gan, Bowerman, Bernie Hughes and McDonald went on to col lege grid action, and Morgan and Hughes to professional stardom. All Foes Crushed Medford's record that season be held in Multnomah Stadium, Portland, probably Dec. 1. Al Lightner of Salem, who refereed the Eureka game here Oct. 12, has been secured as referee; Tom Ireland, Myrtle Creek, will be umpire and Eddie Jonas, Talent, head linesman. Coach John Roberts, Ashland, and Simpson readily agreed to use officials other than those from either Medford or Ashland. Pros Fall Behind In Carolina Meet Pinehurst, N. C, Nov. 8 (U.R) A star field of professionals trailed Amateur Cary Middlecoff today as the North-South open golf tournament went into its final 36 holes. Middlecoff, 24-year-old army lieutenant from Memphis, came up with his second straight sub par round yesterday, carding a three-under-par 69 for a 36-hcle total of 139. One stroke behind him were Ben Hogan of Hershey, Pa., and Denny Shute of Akron, O., first-day leaders who soared to 74's yesterday. BOWLING In Commercial League last night Fluhrer Bakery won three straight games from Firestone (Klatte 485-Orndorf 493), Lit trell's defeated Daniels Robin son two games to one (Heinde mann 482-Johnson 465), Mont gomery Ward won two out of three from Henry's Drive-In (Beck 523-Swanson 562) and Pepsi Cola took three straight from Silver Dollar Grill (Speer 486-Hohlwig 469). DUCKS IN SHAPE Eugene. Ore., Nov. 8 (U.R) The University of Oregon Web feet were en route for Pullman, Wash., today to try to repeat a previous victory over Washing ton State College. Coach Tex Oliver said the team "was in pretty good shape" for Satur day's game. Us Mull Tribune want Adf. A FLAT DRINK IS A WET BLANKET KEEP YOURS WITH 3 canadaSpry S&r MIATPD 15 looked like this: 39 to 7 over Chemawa, 44 to 6 over Marsh- field, 42 to 6 over Salem, 31 to 0 over Klamath Falls, 50 to 7 over Corvallis, 25 to 7 over Ash land, 42 to 0 over The Dalles, and 39 to 0 over Benson. The Callisonites simply overwhelmed everybody in sight. As stupendous as that outfit unquestionably was, there are some people who believe this year's Black Tornado is even bet ter. Of course, there is no way of knowing, for the simple rea son that 1928's Medford team can't take the field against the current Al Simpson-coached ma chine. If, by magic, it could, what a game would result! ""One thing you can say for the 1945 Tornado: It certainly runs up the tallies. Just look at these scores: 68 to 0 over Al bany, 40 to 0 over Marshfield, 52 to 7 over Eugene, 38 to 0 over Eureka, Cal.; 51 to 0 over Klam ath Falls, 73 to 0 over Grants Pass. Athletes Improving , Perhaps because we are of this generation, the writer leans slightly toward the present Med ford team as the best ever de veloped in the Pear city. We be lieve that in almost every sport, the years have brought improve ment in everything from con ditioning methods to better gear and equipment. Athletes nowa days run faster, jump higher, shoot better golf and receive, on the whole, better coaching in all sports than did their yesteryear colleagues. Why, then, doesn't it stand to reason that teams of the present are superior to those of the past? Now hold it, fellows! It's the end of the column, so you guys who disagree will have to post pone telling Hulen what a dope ha is." Army, Navy Study Post-Season Bids For Bowl Clashes New York, Nov. 8 (U.R) Army and navy, whose football teams have dominated college gridirons for two seasons, deflat ed today whether to accept bids for post-seaso bowl game3.

SWEDISHRUNNERS FOR TAKING PAY Stockholm, Nov. 8 (U.R) The Swedish Athletic association to day suspended distance runners Gunder Hagg and Arne And ersson indefinitely for violation of amateur rules, after hearing testimony from representatives of 15 athletic clubs that they had paid the athletes. The lean Swedes, who to gether became the greatest mile runners in history, had taken turns lowering the mark for the distance and Hagg currently held the world record of 4:01.4, estab lished this year during the sum mer running season. The association prompted the investigation after receiving re ports that the athletic clubs had paid Hagg and Andersson. The clubs, after meeting briefly, an nounced the suspension which still must be officially confirmed by the association. That action was considered a foregone con TO THOSE WHO HAVE ASKED US SO MANY TIMES: "WHY DON'T YOU BUY WHOLE MILK?"
