Lil lard Has Difficulty Making Rematches. Son May Play Mult nomah Club Here. Klamath to Receive Test Against Mod ford. A full schedul of sthletlo activity will break up ths mo notony of the winter sport season next week. Six (Tents In basketball, boxing and wrest ling will ocoupy the people ot Klamath county from Tuesday nntll Saturday. , Ths week's events: - Tnesday Southern Oregon Normal school basketball team vs. Waldorf at Klamath Union high school, Thursday American Legion boxing card at Merrill Com munity hall. Friday Wrestling at' Legion ...hall. Medford high school i' ' basketball team vs. Klamath here. Klamath Wildcats va. Dorrls of northern California here. Saturday Klamath Wildcats at Henley. One of the major difficul ties of promoting wrestling, ri Mack Llllard has come to know, arises from the lmpossl- ... blllty ot making rematches. There have been soma excel lent heavyweight bouts since Llllard artved In Klamath Falls, but no two wrestlers '.' have been brought together for , a second show. i The best matches, according ; to publio taste, are the wild est ones, and no wrestler likes to repeat a rough battle. Lll- ' lard has tried to bring athletes together for a second match, bnt each time the wrestlers -, refused. , Klamath Falls for a match next Friday, probably would be willing to meet Karaslck. Wolfe lost to the Hon several weeks ago. Karaslck, however, had so much trouble winning he al- . ready has told Llllard he won't meet the Texan. It's possible ' Llllard will match Wolfe against' Dr.'- De Vora, the man who held Kara slck to a draw. The Klamath promoter has developed the had habit of misspelling wrestlers' names. When a new athlete arrives he Immediately protests -the man ner his title has been twisted. Here are a few examples of the matchmaker's affronts: Dr. Nap OeVora who was first introduced to Kalamath Falls as Dr. lap Devore. Frankle Schroll. ' .He ob-, Jetted to Frank School. . Rocky Brooks. ' He ..disliked Rocky-Burke. . ... . . Jack Kogat, not Jack KugaL ' ' Howard Hdbson, always -' eager to bring his Southern . Oregon Normal school teams to Klamath Falls, ,1s considering a new series here after he meets the Waldorf team on Tuesday inght Hobson be lieves Klamath people would enjoy watching the Multnomah club In action. . " ' '; The Sonv posslbily because they 'were a ' little too strong last season and upset the Uni versity of- Oregon In ' three games, have' had trouble in scheduling college - basketball teams. Tha Multnomah club, however, is as niar a college team ss possible. Some of the outstanding players from both Oregon and Oregon State have fonnd positions on this com bination, and their strength in the northwest is indisput able. -, ' - ' - Klamath's contest with Med ford next Friday night will be : the highlight ot the basketball season. No other game is so Important to the Pelicans as this annual clash with the Tigers. Klamath slipped over a vic tory last year, bnt compara tive strengths indicate, there is no assurance of repeating the achievement this season. If Dwlght French, head coach, can reduce his Injury and sick list, then perhaps the ' Klamath youths will win.
