MEDTORDttTRIBUNE SIPdDIRlTS Red Raiders, Chico Vie at Grants Pass Ashland There's a feeling in the air that the Southern Oregon college footballers are about due for victory and the Red Raiders of the Rogue will gun to make the feeling a reality Saturday night when they scramble with the Chico State college Wildcats. Southern Oregon is host to Chico in an encounter on the Grants Pass field. To accomplish their aim the Raiders will have to lick a crew which is a one or touchdown favorite and which is bolstered by 20 returning lettermen, two of them all-coast players and a big share of them two-year mono gram men. Solid Team Chico is described as a good solid team with good speed but not too large. The Raiders have quite a bit of size and some fast speed. Sentiment prevails close to the SOC aggregation that the Raiders can win with good foot ball. Coach Al Akins has had the SOC squad hard at it this week in effort to assure a top perform ance despite the fact that in juries will either sideline or hamper a few of his better play ers. Stress has been on offense and scrubs have been running Chico plays against the top liners in defensive drills. The two little all-coast players are expected to be in the starting eang for Chico. They are Ernie Matlock, fullback, and Pat Sie ber, tackle. The Wildcats have two high-rated ends in Mose Mastolotto and Bob Barram and two capable quarterbacks in Carl Bloss -and Don Ray. Bloss may get the starting assignment. Starters Listed Other likely starters are Louis Pelligrini, tackle: Ron Gallino and Alvie Brunk, guards: Gil Jones, center, and Bill White and Gary Adams, halfbacks. For the Raiders Larry Schwein furt and Norm Hedgepeth may be at ends. Herb Colley and Jim Bird at tackles. Chuck Romine and John Garrett at guards, Ray Thiess at center. Bill Seymour at quarterback, Ted Tenney and Chuck Crandall or Larry Maurer at halfbacks and Don Korns at full. On the injured list are guard Modesto Jimenez with a knee in jury, back Ralph Clarno with a re-sprained angle and back Arlen Smith with a face injury Jimenez is not expected to see action. The tussle is one of two home games which Southern Oregon has switched fields in other towns of the area. The Raiders met Humboldt here in their opener. Action at Grants Pass is appropriate since a good num ber of Raiders are from that community.

Kick- off time will be 8 p.m. RUSSIANS OLYMPICS BOUND Moscow (U.R) The first contingent of the Soviet Olym pic party, consisting of physi cian;, coaches, cooks and equip ment, will leave Odessa Satur day aboard the steamer Cruzia for Melbourne. The athletes will follow some time later by plane. OSC Doesn't Plan To Forfeit Fray Corvallis. Ore. U.R) Oregon state's 19-13 victory over Mis souri will stay in the books as far as the Beavers are concerned even if Sam Wesley, who played a key role in the victory, later was declared ineligible. Spec Keene, Oregon State's athletic director, outlined the school stand Thursdy after Coach Don Faurot of Missouri was quoted as saying that his team would have forfeited the game under similar circumstances. "Forfeiture of one game would not clear up the Wesley problem as far as Oregon State is concerned," Keene said. "If Sam Wesley was ineligible for the Missouri game and we wouldn't have played him if we had had an inkling he was in eligible he was also ineligible for all games he played for Ore gon State last year as a soph omore and the year before as a freshman." Ashland Beats Central Pointers Central Point Ashland de feated the Central Point seventh and eighth grade football team here last night 19 to 14. Score at halftime was 19 to 7. Tom White went 68 yards and Harley Blanchard went two to end a 70 yard push for the Pointer touchdowns. Loyal Higinbotham ran the extra point,";.

Princeton Coach Defends League Princeton, N.J. U.R) Coach Charley Caldwell of Princeton today defended Ivy league foot ball against the criticism leveled against it by George Preston Marshall, owner o fthe Washing ton Redskins' professional team. "Ivy league footbal is good for the players, even if it isn't good for George Marshall," Caldwell said while preparing for Prince ton's game with Columbia Sat urday. At Philadelphia Monday, Mar shall blamed the Ivy league for the decline of Eastern collegiate football and said the way to halt the ebb was to "fire 90 per cent of the presidents" in the circuit's member schools. 6 o Dead tine Sunday Classified Is at noon Saturday 10 a.m Monday for Monday: other dayt 5:30 previous day 6-bottIe carton Double-Cofa for only K with'porchaj of 6-bottle carton at regular price (plus deposit on bottles) This Week-end at Your Favorite Grocery Bottled by 7-Up Bottling Co., Medford To Buy or Sell - Use Tribune Classified Ads ooy i fi o o.'
