CLIP DAY
We William Hulen, Medford
Mall-Tribune sports grapher,
had this to say of Ralph Foster's
swell performance on the Tiger
field last week:
"Foster, in this depart
ment's opinion. Is the greatest
running back to trod the turf
of the local stadium since Eu
reka sent Bill Prentice here to
run everybody ragged. Pren
tice, incidentally, is playing
fullback for Santa Clara, In his
sophomore year, and scored
the touchdown against Oregon
State Saturday."
.Bill also points out that next
week's tussle between the Pell-
cans and Grants Pass will decide
the Southern Oregon conference
title and it will be the first
time In years and years that
Medford will not either share it
or own it outright.
Last season, you'll recall, it
was all Medford's until Ashland
rose up and smacked em, wind'
Ing up the race in a three-way
tie between Klamath, Medford
and the Grizzlies.
This fall the crown will rest
unshared either here or in
Grants Pass. Medford and Ash'
land meanwhile will fight it out
for third and the devil and the
basement take the hindmost.
Says Richard Strite, sports
editor of the Eugene Register-
Guard anent tonight's Pelican-
Axemen clash:
"There's no good reason, in
fact no reason at all, for the
Eugene Axemen to take next
Friday's game at Klamath Falls
lightly. The 'Big Purple' will
have to show considerably more
than they showed the Milwaukee
Maroons to beat a Pelican club
that can lick Medford 32-0 any
Medford football team.
"We're seen the day when
Eugene could match such a
performance the Thanksgiv
ing day on Hayward feld
where one of Frits Kramer's
great clubs walloped the day
lights out of Medford to the
tune of a 44-0 score. That was
back in 1936, the days of the
Cerent, the Sears, the El
liotts, and the Bodners.
1 "Apparently the Pelicans have
everything a balanced ball club
that gained 183 yards on the
ground while holding Medford
to 29, made 12 first downs to
lix for the Tornado, completed
lour of seven passes for 53 yards.
nd had a sensational punting
iverage of 46 yards.
. "Eugene has potentially
good running attack that
would function against the
.best of prep competition if
' . the Axemen backs can get un
der way a few seconds faster
than demonstrated - against
Milwaukie. The defense can
not afford to be fooled, how
ever, as it was on the Maroons'
punt formation. The fact that
Medford managed to complete
five of IS passes against
Klamath for 79 yards might
indicate Eugene's aerial game
could damage Klamath's rec
ord of five consecutive tri
umphs. "The 'Big Poison' in the Klam
ath backfield is no doubt Ralph
.roster, a lSB-pound left half
back speedburner who returned
one Medford punt for a 70-yard
touchdown and powered over
from- the six on another. The
Pelican backfield is built for
speed. The largest man is Quar-
xeroacK Arnold Selby at 172
pounds."
Wildcats Tip

Honkers, 24-7
Initiating , a scoring drive
from the moment they took
possession of . the ball, Klam-
ins wuacats punched over to
first quarter touchdown then
went on to wallop Lakevlew's
Honkers, 24-7, last night on
Modoc field.
The game, second of three
consecutive local stadium con
tests for Klamath fans, was fea
tured by the singular fact of a
single Wildcat punt during the
entire evening. On every other
occasion the baby Pelicans
either scored nr lnef v,o un

downs intercepted passes or
xumoies deep in Honker terri
tory. Hill busted over for all the
Wildcat scores.
The Lake county eleven was
unable to tally until it stretch
ed together a 70-yard drive in
the third that gave the Honk
ers their single score.
Wednesday night Medford

Army-Navy
Grid Battle
Is Shifted
ANNAPOLIS, Md., Oct. 23 (IP)
The Army-Navy football game, a
victim of its own popularity, has
been shunted from Philadelphia's
mammoth stadium to the Naval
Academy's 22,000-seat arena as
a war economy measure by Pres
ident Roosevelt.
In a season during which other
gridiron contests have shown a
drastic falling off in attendance,
the battle of the two service
elevens was expected to draw
its customary 100,000 spectators
and the president last night or
dered the transfer to save tires
and gasoline and to keep the rail
roads open for more important
travel.
The White House statement
which accompanied the an
nouncement warned that tickets
for the classic be sold "only to
residents of Annapolis not to
outsiders" and hinted that the
game might be the last meeting
of the two for the duration of
the war by saying that "the game
was scheduled before war was
declared and its cancellation at
this late date undoubtedly would
cause great disappointment."
