Twilight Tear
Takes Pimlico
BALTIMORE. Nov. 2 (Pi
Twilight Tear, apparently head
ed today for selection an the
horse of 1944, will have another
year In which to go after Top
Flight s SilS.UUU cornings recora
(or their sex.
The Tear, first filly ever to
start in the Pimlico special,
romped home ahead of Devil
Diver and Mcgogo yesterday to
win a $25,000 purse and boost
her winnings to $202,163 in two
years of racing in which she has
won IB of ii starts.
Trainer Ben Jones of Warren
Wright's Calumet farms said
after the race "we can't afford
to retire her" and that she would
compete or another year. The
tear may make one more start
this season at Pimlico, he added.

Middies' Front Wall Throws
Opposition For Net Loss
NOT SO HOT
The Klamath Pelicans
worked out Wodntsday alloc
noon for tha first time since
the Eureka tilt and displayed
about as much drire as a limp
dish rag.
Coach Marble Cook had the
boys working on fundamentals
with blocking and tackling drills
particularly stressed. There were
some nice blocks thrown and a
few fair tackles but generally
speaking, it looked as if the boys
could stand more drilling and
lots of It before the final game
hcre wltli Bend on Armistice
Day.
Perkins was not limping too
noticeably and by taking it fair
ly easy should bo in ton shape
by the time Armistice Day ar
rives. Bob Rcdkcy, another cas
ualty, also seemed Improved and
should be ready to go against
Bend.
As a whole, the Pelicans
haven't shown enough fire to
light a match ever since the
gamo with Medford two woeks
ago. The reason for this apathy
is a moot quostion. Although
the K-men did play a good
game against Medford, they
still lost by 21 points and that
certainly Is not sufficient
provocation to just take it easy
and rest on their laurels. In
fact, one might reasonably
ask, what laurels?
It Lt truo that several of the
boys have been handicapped by
injuries lately but that also docs
not seem sufficient cause lo play
football in the manner of zom
bies. One thing Is dead certain,
and thai Is, if the Pelicans do
not regain their former fire
and spirit soon, the Bend Lava
Bears will drive them into the
ground Armistice Day on our
own Modoc fieldl
WILDCAT GAME
At 8 p. m. Friday night our
Wildcats will take on n rugged
Merrill eleven under the lights
of Modoc field. Coach Paul
Angstcad has come up with a
swell football team this season
and this tilt should be a stand
out battle between two, as far as
is known, evenly matched clubs.
The only other fray the
'Cats have played under the
lights was against Lakevlew
early In the season, and this
was a dinger of a game with
Lakevlew nosing out the local
boys, 14-13.
This clambake should be just
as spectacular, if not more so,
than the previous game here,
and It is sincerely hoped that
grid fans will turn out en masse
to support the kjds.

Peters, former Oregon State
grid star the other day, and it
sort of developed into a friendly
argument over the merits of
west coast and midwest lootoau
teams.
We are inclined to think
that through a period of years
the midwest, which includes
the Big Ten conference, has
the edge on tha coast elevens.
In fact, to our mind, the Big
Ten is the toughest conference
in the nation. It includes
Michigan, Indiana, Purdue,
Ohio State, Northwestern,
Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois and
Minnesota. Chicago, of course,
has dropped out but we think
it impossible to find anywhere
else in the country such a
star-studded galaxy of grid
teams as this.
On top of that one has to go
only lo South Bend, Ind.. to find
always mighty Notre Dame and
the boys from We Ureal Lakes
naval training station in the
windy city playan awful lot of
lootoau.
On tha other hand, the west
coast lads have a hotter than
even break in the annual
East-West classic and also have
a corner on the Rose Bowl
game. But the main reason
for the supremacy of the
coast in the bowl encounter is
that the Big Ten rules do not
allow any conerence team to
partlcipte br post -season
games 1 f
Several times a Big Ten team
has been chosen as the number
one eleven of the entire nation
but, because, of this rule, has
been unable to defend its laurels
in a bowl game.
George stated, and rightly,
so, that the coast representa
tive in the Rose Bowl always
sought to encounter the best
team available. We know that
''Is true, but the point is that
often the best team is not
available because of this rule
and this necessarily detracts
from the importance of the
game and fails to become a
true test
George, himself. Dlaved In the
bowl game held at Durham,
N. C, with Duke university in
1942 and Oregon State won, 20
16 in a great game. But in 1942,
Minnesota and not Uuke, was
the national grid champion. We
do not wish to detract in any
way from Oregon State's fine
triumph, but that salient fact
still remains.
There have been exceptional
football teams come out of
west coast schools and we,
ourselves, saw that classic
same in South Bend when
Southern Cal scored 16 points
in the last 10 minutes to upset
Notre Dame. That eleven was
a truly great team and we
cheered ourselves hoars over
their victory in probably the
finest football gam ever
played by two major universities.
As far as the East-West Shrine
gamo at San Francisco is con
corned, we have never thought
mat games between teams com'
posed of all-stars were truly in
dlcntivc of the ability of the
players.
For on thing, it brings to-

The fans of Klamath Falls may

gridiron world. Saturday after

The Pilots are bringing some
of the best backs the marines

one of the top backs on the

Whon officials of 13 clubs

The first three players selected

Neither of St. Louis' 1944
champions, the Cardinals and the

only other club that failed to dip
ifito the minor league barrel was
Detroit. The Tigers sought three
players, but all were ineligible
because of previous selections
from their clubs.
The Senators, Philadelphia

Chicago White Sox drafted two
players each, while the Phillies,
New Yor" Giants, Cleveland In

total of 19 drafees was three
more than last year when $110,

league coffers.
Seventeen players were from

the fixed $7500 price tag. One
was a $6000 class A buy and the
