Fifty Candidates Turn Out For First Session Coach Angstead Will Use T-Formation; Four Regulars Return From '44 Squad By PAUL HAINES About 50 prospective Pelicans answered the call to the 'Red-ond-White colors of Klamath Union high school Friday afternoon at Modoc field and were issued uniforms and given physical examinations in preparation for the coming grid Reason. , Sizing the boys up without the benefit of a scale, it ap peared obvious that Coach Paul Angstead and Assistant Coach Ed Ryan would field another light eleven this season. ,The boys were carefree in the locker room, but underneath there seemed to lie a deadly earnestness that bodes ill for rivals of the Red-and-White in the ensuing months when King Football will once again reign supreme over the entire ;nation. Perhaps they were remembering that humiliating 33 to 0 'shellacking they took last year at the hands of the Grant 'Generals who went on the march at the opening whistle and Jwere never halted until they had amassed 33 points. Chance For Revenge i ' On the evening of September 21 at Modoc field, some of ilast year's regulars will have a golden opportunity to erase "that defeat and avenge them- selves upon the strong Portland eleven. ; Chuck Thurman, Harold Wirth, R o(er Vanderhotf, Jim Pope ,'and Scott Reed, to name a few, have bitter recollections of that -night when the unleashed power !',of the Generals stormed and took the Klamath goal line five times. After that debacle in the open ing came, the Pelicans came back like champions to run wild over a favored Salem eleven, 18 to 0. Roberts Fiasco Coach John Roberts acting in the guise of referee, enabled an inferior Ashland team to gain a 12 to 12 tie with the K-men and in the fourth game of the season KUHS trampled Grants Pass, 12 to 0. The roaring Black Tornado of Medford overwhelmed the small but scrappy Pelicans, who put up a terrific battle against odds before going down, 21 to 0. Eureka kicked the dope bucket higher than the Empire State building by giving the Klamath ites a lesson in deception and winning the ball game, 19-6. The Pelicans closed the season in a blaze of glory by thumping the Bend Lava Bears to the tune of 13 to 6, to wind up the 1944 season with three wins, three losses, and one deadlock. T-Foimation Coach Angstead plans on us ing the model-T formation alto gether this year and will be searching for a key-man to nan die the oval when the Pelicans stream out onto Modoc field and settle into the full swing of prac tice. The onenins session was held this morning with the workout involving wind sprints, block ing and tackling practice, and conditioning exercises. Sari Candidate Bill Sari, who would have probably handled a line assign ment last year if he had not suffered an injury early in the season, was in uniform along with four Pelican regulars from last year who were Thurman, Vanderhoff and Wirth in the forward wall and Bob Redkey in the backfield. Pelican reserves who are seeking berths are Scott Reed, Jim Pope, Jim Palmer, Ben De Vore, Earl Hannen and Tommy Cdwaras. Some of last year's Wildcat squad who have a definite chance to come through are Bob Mocabee, Ray Craig, Allen Eck, Fred Gerbino, Bob Eastman, Gene Yarnell and Leroy Cole man, Coach Angstead doesn't have much to say. It's "too early to tell." The team will be light, but a football eleven isn't nec- fjWHilili PHONE 4371 9 WEDNESDAY 8 P.M. "VIRGIL" World's Greatest Magician and Co.

The Beavers, rudely set down 12-4 last night by San Diego's Padres as Righthander Carl Dumler registered his 20th win of the season, still boosted their lead over the runner-up Seattle Rainiers half a notch to three games. The pacesetters scored their percentage gain because the Rainiers obligingly dropped a doubleheader to the Sacramento Solons 15-2 and 10-7. Dumler, third pitcher in the loop to break into the 20-game win figures, had an easy time beating the Beavers, limiting them to eight hits one of which was a seventh-inning home run by Ted Gulhe with Manager Marv Owen aboard. The Padres got to Southpaw Syd Cohen for five runs in the first six innings and then sent him to the showers with a seven-tally splurge in the seventh. The San Diego victory evened tne series at two-an. essarily constituted with brawn alone. Fight, courage, speed, en durance and brains are what make football teams and by the looks of things Friday afternoon and today, the Pelicans should have the fundamental require ments.

Before the ticket scalpers start trying to put up the Yankee sta dium, it might we well to note that five teams are in the run ning for the big dough, , Ernie Bonham and Al Gettel teamed up on the Senators last night in a twi-night doublehead er, Big Jumbo whipping them in the first tilt. 3-2 and Uettel fol lowing up with a 3-1 job in the finale. George Stimweiss en joyed a happy evening with five hits and two stolen bases that sent him into a tie with the Nats' George Alyatt for the base lift ing lead. Felltr Goes Today Bobby Feller hardly expected a world series slice when he came out of the "navy to finish up the season with Cleveland but anything goes this year. Rapid Robert goes again today against Half Newhouscr after Allie Reynolds beat the Bengals yesterday, 7-2 with the help of Felix MacKiewicz' three-run homer. Big news in the National league was the fourth successive decision the St. Louis Cards grabbed from their Chicago "cousins," 4-1, making It 11 out of 14 for the year with eight to go. Harry (the cat) Brecheen, just about the roughest lefthander in the league now that his arm Is right, gave only two hits, one a homer by Ed Sauer who re placed the benched Bill Nichol son. 3 Games Apart The distance from St. Louis to Chicago now is only three games with the Red Birds having a chance to go into a virtual tie for the lead by sweeping today's single and tomorrow s double at home.

'JADE MASK" "ENEMY OF THE LAW" Lipscomb Battles To Draw With Dusette; Keeps Crown By PAUL HAINES The crowd roared, stamped, whistled, booed, and cheered lust night, turning the armory nroiin into a madhouse with it's pan demonium, as Jack Lipscomb successfully defended his Junior heavyweight mat belt by bat tling to a draw with Georges Dusette, the challenger. Not in many, many months have rassllng fans seen a match to equal the titanic battle of the giants the two gladiators put on last night as Lipscomb staved off Dusette's fifth round bid for a fall and held him to a draw when ho lost the final canto to the French-Canadian strongman. Jack lived up to expectations from the start of the fracas to the conclusion, fighting a rip ping, tearing, gouging fight that had Dusette in trouble a good share of the time. Each boy hurled his opponent from the ring at least twice and the huge c.owd was In a frenzy when Jack took the first fall of the tiff In the third heat with a toe hold after working viciously on Du sette s leg. This was merely the lull be fore the storm, however, as the fans virtually went insane in the f ourth and fifth rounds when Georges gave back blow for blow. The tussle reached its wild climsx In the final round with Dusette and Lipscomb sav agely kneeing each other in the throat until Georges at last seized an opportunity and slap ped a full-Nelson on his rival to take the fall that evened the count. Jack stilt reigns as junior heavyweight king today, but he knew he had been to the wars after Dusette's gallant effort to regain the crown.
