These Leatherneck - Wcbfoot

high calibre and the IniHe! clam

P. of tho Dlavci'a i who
ed Gonzngn's mighty
season arc in up inn
cults is the us of the one
handed push shot. This type
ol shot is virtually unheard of
in tho middle west and east.
The I'uclfic side lads arc dead
ly In their accuracy with this
method of shooting. Back there
thi. set shot is used mostly, and
although it is effective, it neces
sitates coming to a complete stop
before shooting and getting set
before letting the ball go.
The push shot employed by
westorn schools is a fastor way
of shooting and can bo used
from any place on the floor.
It is alio much easior for the
man shooting to koep his bal
anco and follow the ball in
whon tho push shot is used and
Increases scoring from rebounds.
The set or spot shot is seldom
seen out here but all ono need
do Is take a jaunt to Indiana,
tho most enthusiastic basketball
state in the nation, to sec it
every day in the week and twice
on Sundays.

Wolverines
Battle Bucks
For '10' Toga
By HAROLD HARRISON
COLUMBUS. O.. Nov. 22 (Pi
The dopesters say it will be Ohio
State's backfield against Michi
gan s line in their Big Ten cham
pionship football tilt here Satur
day, and that it might turn out
to be a preview of the Army
(backfield)-Navy (line) engage
ments but don't overlook that
buck forward wall.
bxact y five of those seven
storting linemen for Ohio are
veterans of one or moro seasons
of Big Ten gridiron warfare.
Ana wen mere is the little
matter of statistics.
A recapitulation of figures an
nounced at me eight Ohio vic
tories shows a game average of
1231 yards made against the
bucks by rushing.
Official figures on all gains,
however, give the Wolverines
tne edge, 215 to 200, and even
Ohio coaches say Michigan's line
will be the toughest to be faced
this year.
On the other hand, Ohio State
leads the Big Ten in net gains,
having picked up 282 yards a tilt
by rushing and 94 yards a game
by passing. Moro than 500 yards
of the passing gains have been
amassed in tho last four games.
The Michigan line is built
around Milan Lazctlch, a big
tackle from Anaconda, Mont.,
who once was sheriff in his home
community. He's the No. 1 All-
America candidate from the
Wolverine camp, so the reports
say, oui nes oniy one of a stal
wart line which held Illinois'
tjpecdstars without a score
sometning Ohio failed to do.

By The Associated Press
Oregon Prepdom's "Big Four"
the clubs that hammered their
way through impressive regular
season schedules to capture dis
trict championships open their
playoffs for the 1944 state foot
ball title tomorrow (Thanksgiv
ing Day.)
Not one of the teams has suf
fered defeat thus far, and even
the closest observers give little
edge to any of the elevens
against its semi-final opponent.
Both contests look like strictly
toss-up affairs.
At La Grande it will be the
district 1 champion Tigers, a
T-formation outfit, meeting Port
land's Roosevelt Teddies, district
4 kings.
And at Medford it will be the
giant Black Tornado, district
2 title-holder, facing perhaps the
finest "small school" team de
veloped in the state in years
Uresnam s uopners.
Emerging from those two
clashes will be the contestants
for the December 2 state cham
pionship fracas in Portland's
Multnomah stadium.
Roosevelt, sparked by the
running and passing of Fullback
Dick Gray, whipped seven foes
and was tied once in grabbing
the Portland diadem. Operating
from the double-wing, they
downed Corvallis, 13-0; Lincoln,
32- 0; Benson, 6-0; Commerce,
33- 7; Franklin, 20-12; Jefferson,
13-7; Grant, 6-0 and were dead
locked, 6-6 by Washington.
La Grande ran roughshod
over the following nine oppon
ents: The Dalles, 18-0; Baker,
26-6 and 37-0; Mac High, 19-12
and 26-0; Pendleton, 37-7 and
27-6; Enterprise, 32-6 and
Nampa, Idaho, 13-0.
Medford, employing the un
adulterated "T" behind a 191-
pound forward wall and with a
heavy, fleet-footed quartet of
backs, registered lopsided vic
tories over eight foes as fol
lows: Weed, Calif., 42-6; Marsh
field, 33-0; Eureka, Calif., 28-6;
Klamath Falls, 21-0; Grants
Pass, 41-0; Bend, 34-13; Ashland,
42-13 and Coquille, 32-14.
Gresham, which uses both the
"T" and the Notre Dame box,
ran up the state's loftiest point
total 278 in eight games dur
ing a schedule which saw the
Gophers wallop Sabin of Port
land, 26-0; Parkrose, 26-6; Camas.
Wash., 44-13; Hood River, 38-0;
Sandy. 21-0; Oregon City, 21-0;
Estacada, 70-0 and Newberg,
32-0.
