ford high fans. They will be
held back up to 6 p.m. Fri
day and can be obtained up

high school office. After 6 p.m.
the reserves will be placed on

day of .hard, determined prac
tice for its : mammoth engage
ment on Friday with the Marsh
field Pirates.; '
The Tornado blows into the
Golden Pirates' den at 8 p.m. at
Coos Bay on Friday in one of
Oregon's major prep attractions
of the week end.
Medford's squad drilled under
game situations yesterday and
Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg re
marked. "I think the boys are
pretty determined." He report
ed that the boys were sparked
up, a change over Tuesday when
things did not go too sharp.
The head man indicated that
the main worry; of the Tornado
Is fortifying its defenses to halt
the high-geared attack of Marsh
field, which is augmented by a
tough, heavy line and fast backs.
"I think our offense will go,"
Spiegelberg said. But hope was
high for a dry field Friday
night to make it click . better.
Marshfield already this year has
shown itself a good "mud" team.
Jacobs To B Back
Another Medford problem
was bolstering its forces both at
a backfield spot and In the line.
Lorin Jacobs, regular fullback
and linebacker, was still in Sa
cred Heart hospital last night
because of a leg infection. He
was to be released today but still
has missed three workouts this
week. Bron Oslesby has taken
over the fullback burden in
practice and may Btart In place
of Jake. Dennis Miller; Junior
Jayvee, has been brought up to
strengthen the spot.
The Medford crew lost some
of Its reserve depth at tackle
when Jim Link iniured his knee
Tuesday. Dave Peterson likely
will see heavier duty because of
this. '
There Is a brUht spot In the
defense picture desolte worries.
While the Pirates line regulars
will have an edge on Medford's,
the Tornado can throw In some
beef from its reserves, among
them Peterson, Bill Dyer, Neil
Plumlcy and Gary Shafer all

Hunters Asked To Send
In Deer Report Cards ;
During Next 30 Days
Portland Now that many
hunters have completed their
hunting for the year, it comes
time to dig down into the desk
drawer or billfold for 'that post
card sized piece of paper called
a hunter report card.
The game commission is ask
ing all hunters to send in their
report cards so that an accur
ate count and complete details
of the deer kill for this year can
be obtained.
Pott Card Will Do
In case the card has been
lost, a post card containing; the
pertinent information will suf
fice. If a regular post card is used,
it should have the following in
formation: number of days hunt
ed, type of deer killed (buck,
doe, fawn), number of points on
each antler in the case of a buck,
county hunted, and landmark
near which the deer was killed.
Hunter should then sign the
card and mail it to the Oregon
State Game Commission, Port
land, Ore.
The commission has urged
hunters to return these cards
within the next 30 days. I

Clevelanders
Show Need
Of Defense .
By EARL WRIGHT .
United Ptms Sports Writer
The Cleveland Browns are the
latest example of the importance
of a good defense in the Nation
al Football league,
Otto Graham, Cleveland s
master passer, is throwing Just
about as well as last year when
he won the ; league , passing
championship while leading the
club to its fourth straight East
ern Division title.
He has completed 61 of 93
throws for 876 yards and eight
touchdowns. . .
He has averaged 9.42 yards
per throw in four contests and
the Browns .have averaged al
most 26 points per game. That's
only about four less than they
averaged while sweeping their
first four games last year.
But they have only a 2-2 rec
ord this season. The difference
is in the defense. Cleveland's
four opponents this season have
averaged more than 23 points.
Last year, the team's first four
rivals averaged only slightly
more than eight points. .
Sunday the Browns meet the
New York Giants, who lead the
league in scoring with 161 points
while allowing 75.
Injuries Blamed
Jack Lavclle, New York scout
blames a big portion of Cleve
land's defensive trouble on in
juries that have hampered safe-
tyman Ken Gorgal and the re
tirement of middle guard Bill
Willis and line-backer Tommy
Thompson. -
'!When Willis was in there.
they had nothing to worry about
from tackle to tackle and he
knew when to drop back to de
fend against passes,". Lavelle
said. "And Thompson was a
tremendous linebacker." -'
One player doesn't make a
team but It's interesting to note
that the Browns haven't beaten
a top-notch opponent since
Thompson was injured in Pitts
burgh last Nov. 22. .
This week's selections with re
cords in parentheses:
Saturday night: Eagles (4-1),
over Packers at' Philadelphia.
Sunday: Forty-Niners (4-0-1), ov
er Bears (2-3) at San Francisco;
Rams (2-2-1) over Lions (3-1) at
Los Angeles; Browns (2-2) over
Giants (4-1), at Cleveland; Steel
ers (4-1) over Cardinals (0-5) at
Chicago; Redskins ' (0-5) over

Scoring Method
To Be Proposed
New York (U.R) Chairman
Robert K. Christenberry of the
New York State Athletic com
mission wilt propose Friday that
the state discard at last its
"back-stopped" round by round
scoring system for 'fights and
adopt, instead, a simple three
point method. - -
Friends of the chairman say
the proposal will be adopted im
mediately and that Christenber
ry will launch a campaign in
London next month for world
wide acceptance.
The new three-point system
will score as follows: No points
to the loser of a round; no points
to either fighter when a round
is even; one point to a round
winner .by a modest margin;
two points for an excellent mar
gin, and three points for a very
superior margin.
A referee and two judges will
continue to do the scoring.

s Plea
May Fall on
Deaf Ears
By OSCAR FRALEY
New York (U.R) r- A per
sonal dramatic plea by Connie
Mack that the ball club he man
aged for 50 years be kept in
Philadelphia was expected to
fall on some deaf ears today
when the ; American League
opens its fourth "showdown"
meeting on the fate of the Phil
adelphia Athletics.
An authoritative source re
ported that the owners of the
other league clubs probably will
disapprove the sale of the
Mack family's stock in the club
to a syndicate of eight .Philadel
phia businessmen. . '
That would leave the Macks
only the alternative of seljing
their stock to Arnold Johnson,
Chicago real estate man who
heads a group desiring to trans
fer the Athletics to Kansas City.
"Mr. Mack, 92 years young
and beloved by millions of base
ball fans throughout the nation
as the "grand old man" of the
game, has steered clear of the
bitter wrangling that has been
going on for a month about the
sale of the financially strick
en - Athletics. But the tall lean
man who dreamed always of
"one more pennant" now is anx
ious that his club stay In the
same home town it has known
since 1901.
Mack Favors Sal
"I am in favor of the sale to
the syndicate," said Mack. "I
talked to Roy and Earle (h 1 s
sons) and fellow stockholders
and we are solidly behind the
sale."
Owner .Dan Topping of the
New York Yankees, on the other
hand, is solidly against the sale
and in favor of moving the club
to Kansas City,
"For the good of the league,
the club should be transferred,"
said Topping. "Baseball has
been no good in Philadelphia for
15 years and it will get a lot
worse before It gets any better.
We're in this as a business and
when we get a position such
as the Kansas City interests have
made, It seems to me we're
foolish to pass it by."
Just as solidly, however, own
ers Clark Griffith of the Wash
ington Senators and Walter O.
(Spike) Briggs of the Detroit Tig
ers are in favor of keeping the
club in Philadelphia.
HIRSCH TO RETIRE
Los Angeles (U.R) Elroy
Crazy Legs Hirsch, offensive left
end for the Los Angeles Rams,

dicate that the outcome could
be close. Crater's large squad
and somewhat tougher slate
could give it the edge. But, the
Eagles present a rather rugged
crew and will be fired to knock
over the bigger school.
The clubs have met two com
mon foes' this year. Eagle Point
licked Illinois Valley 25 to 0
while the Comets rapped the
Cougars 21 to 0. Crater topped
Phoenix 14 to 7 and the Pirates
edged Eagle Point 7 to 6. A
Comet victory in the scuffle will
give it the loop mantle with
three wins and no losses. If the
Eagles win, they will knot with
Crater and Phoenix for the ban
ner. All three would have two
victories and one defeat.
Starters Listed
Starting ends for. the Comets
this week may be chosen from
among Gordon Tidwell, John
Shama and Cark Koellner. Oth
er likely linemen will be Nathan
Douthit and Bob Gray, tackles;
Harold Lefler and Lyle Yocom,
guards', and Neil Green, center.
In the backfield Coach Leonard
Warren may have Harvey Tonn,
quarter, Don and Duane Goy
ette, halfbacks, and Dick Wal
ker, fullback. Walker has been
hobbled by a bad leg and played
.some against Ashland last week.
Coach Jerry Mosby of Eagle
Point is expected to pick from
among Ed Abernathy, Jerry
Cave and Adrian Elrod, ends;
Don Dillard, Mike Kaiser and
Norm Hooper, tackles, and Jim
Wayman,. Larry Wilson and Jim
Harper, guards, with Dick Wal
lace probably getting center call.
Backfield selections line
among Jerry Tuttle, Eldon Ma
son, John Greb, Carl Christian,
Jack Bunker and Bob Stewart.
Mason suffered knee bruises in
practice last night and Stewart
has missed previous action be
cause of a knee hurt. There is
a possibility that Franck Reich,
end and back, who has been
sidelined by a broken hand, may
play some.
A sidelight on Mason's Injury
is that another. Mason, Bob, of
Crater, also is nursing knee
bruises. Bob is a linebacker for
the Comets.
The game will be the season
finale for the Eagles.

THE BIG
Art Luppino
Leads Nation
In Scoring
New York U.R) Th best
place to catch forward passes this
season is the Pacific Coast and
the only -likely place to catch
young Art Luppino of Arizona is
an enemy end zone.
The. Arizona sophomore has
made a complete runaway of the
individual scoring race in major
college football, NCAA Service
Bureau figures showed today,
piling up an even 100 points in
exactly half of his 10-game sea
son. There is no precedent for
such a total by mid-season in the
history of modern statistics keep-,
ing. '
Luppino scored three touch
downs and kicked three extra
points against New Mexico last
Saturday for a 21-point day. In
one of his five games he was
blanked,' so all of his 15 touch
downs and 10 conversions have
come in four games. He's the
country's leader in rushing yard
age, too.
The nearest, man to him Is
Denver's Rusty Fairly, with 80
points on eight touchdowns and
12 extra points. Cincinnati's Joe
Miller has 9 TDs for 54 points,
and five players have eight for
48 points Mississippi's Allen
Muirhead, Iowa's Earl Smith,
UCLA's Bob Davenport, South
ern California's Jon Arnett, and
Cincinnati's Dick Goist.
Pass-Catching Field Stretches
As for pass receiving, the field
is stretching out a bit and Pa
cific Coast players hold the top
three places and fifth. Cali
fornia's Jim Hanifan is the
leader with 26 caught, Stanford's
John Stewart has 22, Oregon's
Dick James 19 and California's
Jim Carmichael 17. The one in
terloper is Columbia's George
Seitz, who also has 17.
Stewart is the yardage leader
by the narrowest margin, 352
to 351 for Drake's Jerry Mer-
tens. Lou Hettinger of Holy
Cross and Corky Tharp of Ala
bama have caught four touch
down passes apiece. For sheer
destructiveness, tfiough, Army's
Don Holleder and Southern Cal
ifornia's Lindon Crown get top
honors, Holleder has caught only
four passes, but has taken them
223 yards and scored two touch
downs, averaging 55.8 yards a
catch. Crow has caught six,
travelled 270 yards for a 45-yatd
average, and scored three times.
Luppino pops up again as the
nation's leading kick-off return
expert even though he hasn't run
one back for two weeks. He has
356 yards on nine tries. North
Carolina State's George Marin
kov has 329 yards for the same
number, . and California's Paul
Larson ' the country's , top
passer 234 yards for six at
tempts. Michigan State's John
Matsock has 230 and Pennsyl
vania's Stan Chaplin 220.

It will be the second game of
the season with the school in

its only night tilt of the season.
Russell Shifted
While the Bulldogs will be
favorites in the ninth grade
mix on the basis of their earlier
win, Coach Mel Boldenow has
pointed out that the Lithians
could rise up and be tough. The
Ashlanders hold a 19 to 0 ver

Medford beat 26 to 7 and 26 to 0.
A major shift in the Bulldog

will take advantage of that abili
ty. ' ..';..
Other possible line starters are
