Battle Royal Set For

grappling goliaths Into the
squared circle.
In an effort to make the free-for-all
one of the best ever seen
here, Lillard has guaranteed
only traveling expenses to the
first man eliminated and said
purses wrtl become higher the
longer the men stay in the ring.
The lineup pits five of the
game's meanest grapplers into
the ring with a pair of the
classiest light-heavyweights ever
to perform here. Making up the
list of those who stoop a little
low to win matches are Rough
Rufus Jones. Jack Lipscomb,
Harold (Blood and Guts) David
son, Gorilla Poggl and Bulldog
Jackson. Scientific interests will
be capably represented by Ernie
Piluso and Angelo Martinelli.
Three Matches Follow
After the first man is eliml
nated, the muscle manglers will
get down to business. Second
and third pinned will make up
the first regulation match for
three rounds or best two out of
three falls. Fourth and fifth to
be ousted will clash In a four
round go with best two-out-of-
three deciding the winner. Last
two left will mix in a six round
clash, also with two out of three
falls deciding, for highest purse
of the evening.
Two Referees
Two referees will be used,
Lillard said, with big Emll West

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

-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.

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

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

gomery Ward won two out of

Pepsi Cola took three straight
from Silver Dollar Grill (Speer
486-Hohlwig 469).
DUCKS IN SHAPE

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."

teams have dominated college
gridirons for two seasons, deflat
ed today whether to accept bids

E AFTER 25
Mather Field, Calif., Nov. 8
First Lieutenant Richard A.
McElhose of Medford, a B-29
bombardier with 25 missions
against the Japanese homeland
has returned to the United
States after a tour of nine
months with the 20th Air

Wing on Guam.
Lt. McElhose landed here at
Mather field in a Superfortress
with 19 other high point veter
ans who are being returned to
the states for rotation, reassign
ment and discharge. The B-29

Guam to police the Pacific.
. The 314th is the third Super
fortress unit to return to the
states, following the arrival of

on 61 missions during the air
war against the Japanese home
land, and leveled industrial
targets ranging from the south
ernmost island of Kyushu to
the city of Koriyama, 125 miles
north of Tokyo. The 314th and
four other wings of Lt; Gen.

combat flying hours, has won
the Distinguished Flying Cross
and Air Medal with two Oak
Leaf Clusters. He has 70 points
under the army's readjustment
point system.
The lieutenant is the son of
Richard E. McElhose, 9 Rose

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
