' The Klamath Pelicans will try
their sturdy wings against the
Black Tornado of Medford at
the pear city Friday night. The
big battle of the year will get
underway at 8 p. m. sharp on the
Medford high school gridiron
when the Red-and-Whitc of
Klamath- Union high school
takes the field to renew it s an
nual football rivalry with a per
haps over-rated Medford eleven.
' We have been hearing about
the power of the Medford team
all year, but we can't see where
they rate all tho ballyhoo. We
stated, ourselves, that their rec
ord was impressive and it is to
certain extent. They have won
three straight games by lop-sided
scores, but each and all have
been over weak opponents. The
Pelicans have played a much
tougher schedule with Grant,
probable repeaters for the state
championship, Salem, Ashland
and Grants Pass. The so-called
Tornado has met Weed, Calif.,
Marslifield. and Eureka; Both
Weed and Eureka scored against
them so they are certainly not in
vulnerable. It is true they have a tremen
dous advantage in weight, as
they will top the K-men 20
pounds per man in both the for
ward wall and the backfield, ac
cording to official figures. But
Salem also had a big edge in that
department and the Pels went
to the capital city and played
the best game they have this
year to run the Vikings dizzy.
' For two straight years the
Klamath boys have made the
Tornado look like nothing more
than a summer breeze and with
i little confidence they can do it
again. The boys do have confi
dence in themselves and are dis
playing marked spirit in their
preparatory workouts in which a
smooth, deceptive counter-attack
is being worked upon by Coach
Marble Cook. The strategy of
the local lads' for the forthcom-
ing tilt seems to be, if you can't
go through 'em, go around 'em,
and if you can't go around ,'em,
go over 'em, and one of these
methods is bound to work, soon-
r or later. Cook is particularly
.stressing the latter phase of at-
tacit' with intensive passing
flriu the order of the day.

i The score does not tell the

the 'Cats bit off huee chunks of
yardage all through the game,
but fumbled in crucial spots no
Jess than five times. The tab

Mt. Shasta two-yard line with a
first down to boot, and upon an

but fumbled hnfh timon Thoen
lostly misplays cost them four
touchdowns but they still had
enough stuff to take the ball

Mt. Shasta scored first on the
third play of the game after
ihey had set themselves up for

via uie oia sleeper play, and tal
lied again in the third period

The team now is coached by

they expect to get while belts,
gloves and straps to add to the

Whillock and Riggs cover the

with 204-pound Sheldon at the

guard slots with Cave at center.
Cave is also the lightest man in
the starting line, weighing a
mere 172, while Kimsey is the
heaviest recular for the Pelicans
at 178. This should give a rough
idea of the difference in licit De-
tween the two elevens.
Klamath will be at full
strength for the fray with the
Dossiblc exception of Kimsey.
and Jim Pope Is being groomed
for the left end position.
The Pelicans, with Coach
Cook carrying a squad of 30
men, left here about 1 p. m. to
day for Medford. They will work
out on the Tornado field upon
their arrival to get the kinks out
and will be staying at the Med
ford hotel.
Coach Cook is confident that
his team will score touchdowns
and if sufficient defensive
strength can be mustered, the go
sign should be on for the Pels. In
their game with Eureka, the only
punt the Medford eleven at
tempted was blocked and this
is one of the quickest and safest
ways there is to pick up yardage
in a football game. The Tor
nado line may have been too
cocky or their kicker might have
been slow in getting it away. At
any rate, a charging,, driving
line is bound to give the Med
ford boys plenty of trouble and
mat is just wnat we hope to sec
Friday night. Trouble, and lots
ot it, tor tne Black Tornado!

GRUNTS AND GROANS
Paavo Katoncn will really be
out to give the "Grey Musk" the
old boom-boom Friday night in
their main go at the armory.
Paavo still remembers when he
was Pacific coast light-lieiivy-wcieht
king and knows ho is not
getting any nearer a return belt
oattle by dropping every match
to his hated opponent. On the
other hand, the "Mask" is eyeing
the crown himself after his n
torios over the champ, Jack Ki
zer. It would seem trom where
we sit that the whole thing is
more or less up to Kizer and the
powers that be. He must put
the belt up soon to tho challen
ger with the best record of wins,
and it seems obvious that this
cent will be the "Mask" unless
Paavo can tip him over Friday
nite.
In the semi-final event, it
will be a case of a clean, scien
tific erappler against a rough-
and-tumble meanie, when Herb
Parks meets Tony Ross. Ross
has been having successful eve
nings with his rugged tactics
and may be too much for Hcrbie.
Parks can get tough too, when
the occasion arises, and it sure
will arise when he tangles with
Tony.
in tne opener, Blood and
Guts" Davidson will try to drop
Tex Porter with some of his
throwing hcadlocks that he so
delights in using to the discom
fort of his opponents.
MAKES THE GRADE
Here's a kid that did all right
for himself. Verne Yank, one
of last year's first string Pelican
tackles, is occupying the regular
right tackle berth with Jimmy
Phelan's St. Mary's eleven. He
played a whiz of a ball game
against the California Coast
Guard last Saturday and, if our j
memory is correct, played an !
outstanding game earlier in the I
season against the Golden Bears !
from Cal university. That's
keeping Klamath on the sports
map, Verne, . and the best of
luck.
