EIGHT HERALD - AND NEWS Nation's Top Grid Tilts Promised Good Weather Buckeye-Boilermaker Scrap Rated Best Game Saturday; Washington And Oregon Pair Have Western Spot NEW YORK, Oct. 19 OP) Many of the country's leading college grid teams are Idle tomorrow because of examinations, but : it Clark Shaughnessy Is right, the Pitt Panthers may beat Notre Dame in a stunning upset. , 1 . i. . ,u. Hardly anyone has given the Panthers a chance to claw the unbeaten, untied Irish in. their clash at Pittsburgh, but harken to what Coach Shaughnessy told the Pitt students at a pep rally yeste.fwaey'ought to beat Notre Dame. Our team has worked like the very dickens. I think we're going to be quite ready. I know we're -not going to be ourselves. I question whether Notre Dame is good enough to take our measure." The Pitt-Irish tangle, like virtually every game in the coun try, has been promised fair and mild weather, a prediction that indicates banner crowas on r balmy, autumn afternoon.

The terrific Army Cadets, the standout team in the pnuntrv. is considered to have a breeze against the Mel ville (RI) Torpedo tfoai training team. Minnesota and Northwestern battle in another headliner at Minneapolis while Alabama and Tennessee come to grips at Bir mingham in a struggle that may well decide a Bowl bid. Minne sota is ranked fifth and Ala bama sixth. Indiana, No. 8, should have little trouble against Iowa, but Texas, No. 10, likely will have its hands full against Arkansas in the southwest. Pennsylvania, ranked eighth, has an open date along such other elevens as Duke, Michigan, California, St. Mary's, Yale,. Dartmouth, Cor nell, Syracuse and Nevada. ; Two eastern unbeaten, untied teams, Columbia and Holy Cross, are pitted against Colgate and Brown, respectively, while Loui siana State and Georgia, featur ing the return of Charley Trippl, are rated in the south.

Giants Expecting Great Future For John Rigney NEW YORK, Oct 19 JP) Un like most major league club own ers who would like to have the services of Marty Marion, termed the "Mr. Shortstop" of baseball, President Horace Stoneham of . the New York Giants is not in terested in the St. Louis Card inals' star. "We're ready to pay any rea sonable sum for any player that would help our club," said the .Giant boss yesterday, as he es corted a group of writers around the Polo Grounds which is being revamped for next year, "but' I believe we are going to come up with a shortstop who in a few years will be every bit as good as Marion." "His name is John Rigney," continued Stoneham, "and we obtained him from Oakland of the Pacific Coast league in the deal that sent Dolf Camilli to manage the Oaks in 1944. Rig ney, at the time, was in the navy, and still is. Next to the return of Johnny Mize, the big gest boost our club could get would be Rigney's release." Mize was recently released. "Reports from Hawaii and the Pacific Isles where Rigney has participated in the army-navy ex- ; hibitions," Stoneham went on, all agree that Ringney can step into tne lineup of almost any big league team right now. Why. Jack Zeller (general manager of tne uetrolt Tigers) is so high on the kid, he's ready to give me nan a dozen players for him. Another 'Champ' Dug Up By Johnston NEW YORK, Oct. 19 UP) James Joy Johnston came out from under his iron hat today to announce the signing of a new -greatest neavyweignt In the world" and it's now time to break out the ear plugs.

Oct. 19 P) The Washington Huskies, 37-strong, will arrive at Portland's Multno mah stadium this afternoon for the workout which will precede a Saturday game with the Ore gon istate college Beavers. There was only one unexpect ed change in the probable start ing lineup announced last night by Washington Coach Ralph Welch. Bob Nelson, regular left end, will watch the opening min utes of the game from the bench, with Marvin Hein on the left wing for the kickoff. Nelson emerged from the U. W. infirmary yesterday still a bit shaky from the effects of an in flamed throat. His return to the Huskies was almost simultane ous with the comeback of OSC Halfback Bob Stevens to the Beaver practice field at Corval lis. Ore. Stevens suffered from influenza early in the week but it's reported he will be on the field when the starting whistle blows. Among the Washington visit ors' appeared the name of Norm Sansregret, right half who split a muscle in last weeK s came. Sansregret ran with the varsity yesterday in signal practice. In both name and form the modern , novel derives from Northern Italy. your ham and bacon Se par ' MEATS i v g &v:i--' CyECRBRaUOH As far as Klamath Falls is concerned the 1945 football season reaches the top rung of the ladder tonight. Medford which cither has a whale of a team or a whale of a press agent has been galloping along with such success this yenr that somo ardent supporters will tell you that the Tornado should have scheduled college teams instead of kidding around witli high school com petition. On the other hand, the Pelicans have been running up against a snag here and there, in the form of Grant high and Grants Pass, so the money up and down the main stem is going for Klamath Falls and 21 points or better. That's a lot of points, particularly before a gam has van started and the rampaging Black Tornadoes hav been getting too much build-up. Th Palicans hav been working like maniacs all this week, plugging weak spots-in their line and practicing defenslv tactics that may put a crimp In Medford's vaunted running assault. Reserve ducats for the tilt have been long gone for days, and general admission tickets will undoubtedly go like free beer at a political rally as soon as they're put on sale at the gate. Even with the 1100 bleacher seats borrowed from the Marine Barracks, if you want yours you'd better come early and bring a picnic lunch. These borrowed bleachers bring Modoc's seating capacity to something over five thousahd, and, of course, there'll be standing room for a couple of thousand more if you like your football standing up. Harry Chipman of the Medford Mall-Tribune recently quoted a Camp White newspaper article which lavishly referred to the Black Tornadoes as "the ultimate in speed, power, deception and know-how among prep-school football teams" and went on to say that he wasn't bragging but Just wants the folk to know what other people think of the local boys. Well, we'll see . . . Much as I'd like to prfdict an outright victory for our Pelicans, th record just won't bear that much weight. The Tornadoes hav mad a spectacular showing this season against not-too-good teams, if you will but before this night is over th Pearpickers from across th mountain ar going to know they didn't com over here just for th fun of it. And if the Pelicans pull this one out of the fire, look for another V-J celebration on Main street. And now for the top games in the national picture this weekend: .

Th Buckeye Kid has a few rat sling ethics so he may be In for a lot of trouble at th hands of th unethical vailed one. Rouuh Rufus Is also taking on a scientific gent in Hcrblc Parks, so that scrap will probably be a test of brute strength versus skull work.
