V BIX MEDFORD (OREGOrO MAIL TRIB0TT2 Shrine Fray Opens Heavy Grid Slate Portland The fifth annual Shiners' hospital all-star game will open one of the most aa bitlous football schedules ever attempted here at Multnomah stadium when the Oregon and Portland All-Stars meet Satur day night, August 23. It will be the forerunner of a slate which consists of 1 4 games. including a professional encoun er and six Pacific Conference engagement. As in previous years, the Shrine game may prove to be the most colorful and exciting of all, particularly if It follows the pattern of last year's contest, generally considered one of the finest football battles ever view ed in Oregon. Rubber Match A 20 to 13 triumph by the Oregon All-Stars in the 1951 Shrine classic evened the trad itional series at two victories for each team and set the stage for the forthcoming "rubber" match on August 23. It's but a short Jaunt from the Shrine game to collegiate fame evidenced by such performers as George Shaw, acclaimed the best defensive back in last year's game and then named to All Coast teams as safety for the University of Oregon in his freshman year. Choice seats are now available for the all-star encounter for out-of-town mail order reserva tions. Reserved seats may be secured through Shrine game headquarters here in the Jack son Tower building.
