EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS Tuesday. Oct. 23. 1145 alone with Bob Redkey and Tommle Edwards, the starting backfieid will; average 164 pounds. i Redkey will still call signals but has been switched over to light half, and Edwards moves into the tailback slot. In the line Bob Eastman and Sclby are trying their hand on the flanks, Eastman at left end and Selby at right. Scott Reed, who has been alternating at both tackles, goes In as a starter at Pelicans Abandon TV Switch To Single Ving Shift Puts Sari, Rose, Edwards And Redkey In Starting Backfieid By HALE SCARBROUGH Abandoning the T formation, tho Pelicans are running from a single wingback now, propping for their next tilt at Eureka, Calif., this weekend. Coaches Paul Angstead and Ed Ryan have completely revamped their starting eleven and are hoping to Improve a vastly improved team against the Loggers. As now set up, the Pels' backfieid will have Bill Sari, erst while first string tackle, at the blocking back position, and Elwyn Hose, another tackle, running at fullback. Sari weighs 173 and Hose tips the beam ai soi ' right tackle and Dick Foust re tains his berth on the other side. Harold Wirth has one guard Eosition apparently sewed up ut the other is open for the taking. Angstead is trying out several of his reserves looking for the one to plug the gap left by Eastman's shift to end. Ineffective ball-handling In the last two games brought about the decision to switch to a single wing formation, but the change had evidently been under con sideration for some time. Both Angstead and Ryan have coached the formation before and it is a much easier system to teach in experienced high school players. The model T Is too Intricate to be fully learned and under stood in a short period of time. The single wing has the ad vantage of simplicity plus op portunity for utilisation of all , lhe weight in the backfieid. and, from the casual specta tor's point of view, is a whole lot more interesting to watch. As the Pels are set up now, Edwards will probably do most of the ball-carrying as tailback, play safety man on the defense, and alternate with Redkey on long, swinging plays. For line smashes Rose will probably carry. At quarterback Sari's main chore will be to block for the runner. Since the Pelicans have been weak on downfield blocking all this season. Sari's weight before the ball-carrier should be a much-needed improvement. Although somewhat battered and bruised by their experience last Friday, the boys came through the Medford riot with no serious hurts. Chuck Thur man is still nursing a bad knee and Edwards was not in bn the practice yesterday afternoon. He is having some warts burned off his foot. If he ' is not ready for the Logger tilt. Bob Mocabee, one of the backfieid reserve's brightest lights against Med ford. may step into bis Job. Coach Ryan feels that the boys will like working from the single wing system much better and the added weight scattered through the lineup will be a big help in putting the Pelicans back on the winning side of the ledger. Lynam Signs To Grapple Martinelli Having successfully hurdled the threat of Angelo Martinelli last week, the man behind the mask will probably again be in Mack Lillard's crunch carnival Friday night, providing a worth while opponent can be located and the old fellow doesn't de velop grapple business else where. : Herbie Parks was awarded his hout with Rufus Jones when the colored clouter made the mis take of taking a swing at Ref eree Wally Moss, so Parks is one man eligible to tangle with the hooded ruffian. Only one bout is definitely scheduled yet, the curtain raiser which will put Martinelli in the ring with Joe Lynam, hairy chested muscleman from Red mond. Lynam was just recently discharged from the navy and is rated one of the fastest and clev erest of the young light-heavy grapplers on the circuit. Out in the Pacific for three years Lynam practiced his holds on other service rasslers and has a navy championship of two among his souvenirs. In his only appearance here so far he flat tened Norvill Stockstill of Ash land. Soccer Pros Want Larger Pay Checks MANCHESTER, Eng., Oct.-23 UP) - Professional soccer foot ball players today began samp ling strike sentiment to back their demands for a boost in the present $32 weekly pay after club owners rejected a pay hike and simultaneously refused to accept a ubsidy of $400,000 yearly offered by gambling pools.

Dempsey Says Layoff Has Hurt Joe Louis By SID FEDER NEW YORK, Oct. 23 (IP) Jack Dempsey figures the same thing that "happened" to him on a certain rainy night in Phila delphia 19 years ago, will be sit ting right in Joe Louis' lap, come next June and it's going to make Joe's date with Billy Conn anything but a tea party for the Bomber. Now, don't get the idea from this that Commander Jack of Russia Wooed By Officials Of '48 Olympics CHICAGO, Oct. 23 (IP) Rus sia, in the realm of athletics, at least, soon may be forced to show its postwar hand. Even while preparations are underway for resumption of the Olympic .games in 1948, atten tion of the International Ama teur Athletic Federation is fo cused on Russia, which severed formal sports relations with the rest of the world after 1912. Avery Brundage, president of the United States Olympic com mittee and vice president of the International Olympic group, de clared today that the IAAF "ex tended the hand of friendship" to Russia through an "unprece dented" invitation to member ship. He said the recent action of the IAAF council in Stockholm was unusual because any nation previously had to apply for mem bership. The group never be fore singled out and wooed a prospective member. , SUGAR BOWLERS SHOPPING NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 23 (IP) The Sugar Bowl, now" in the "window shopping" stage, finds the country's football shelves well stocked with prospective opponents for the 1946 game. Reticent officials of the Mid Winter Sports association, spon sor of the annual game, will not say what teams are being given the once-over, or which two of the many eligible! they would like to see come down here New Year's Day. Of the top 20 teams selected in The Associated Press poll of the nation's sports writers this week, however, no less than 10 are eligible. Disregarding Army, Navy, Notre Dame and Big Ten aggregations which have anti- post season prejudices, here's what the Sugar Bowlers have to choose from at this stage of the season: Alabama, Pennsylvania, St. Mary's, Columbia, Louisiana State, Tulsa, Holy Cross, Okla homa A. and M., Mississippi State and Duke. Should the association follow its usual policy or picking the best teams available no matter which section of the country they represent, there are numer ous possible pairings. Should St. Mary's be chosen, it would be the first far western team to invade the city since 1938 when Santa Clara defeated Louisiana State 6 to 0. Attention! BOWLERS LEAGUES Are Being Organized Get your team together, get a sponsor and sign up nowl Only a limited number of places available Some will be disappointed Act quick if you want a spot.

The Galloping Gaels could find a worthy opponent in Ala bama which lost a hard-fought 29 to 26 decision to Duke here last Jan. 1, in Mississippi State, Duke or Louisiana State. Unfettered by any conference shackles and with its pockets lined with folding money,, the Sugar Bowl does not have to do any over or under-the-counter trading, but can wait until it is ready to "buy." Its "purchases" will be un wrapped in about six weeks. the coast guard is tabbing Louis as a sure-thing loser. But he remembers what that three-year layoff did to him when he tan gled with Gene Tunney the first time. And, speaking from ex perience, he reckons the same thing is going to "happen" to Joe, who hasn't thrown his high hard one for money in four years. .- Fresh out of Johns Hopkins hospital, where a check-up showed that aside from a leg nerve that's acting up, there's nothing wrong with him a steak dinner won't cure, Dempsey stopped off in New York to pick ud his toothbrush and a couole of clean shirts for his coming cross-country bond tour. At the request of coast guard officials, he stayed in the serv ice for this 41-day Eighth War Loan trek, which gets underway Monday in Norfolk, va. Alter that, he'll turn in his sailor suit and get back to the business of being a civilian again some time around December 15 after four years of working for Uncle Sam.
