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

Dempsey Says Layoff

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

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.
