ill If- , TEN HERALD AND NEWS Pelican-Axeman Scrap May Develop Into Sea-Of-Mud Battle ; Modoc Field Turf Almost Floating After Downpour; Several Injuries Plaguing First-String Lineup ' i What's worrying Coach Paul Angstcad most right now before Mhe Pelicans' game with the Eugene Axemen is not whether his boys aro bettor football players than the Eugene boys but whether they're better swimmers, and from the looks of Modoc field after the past couple of nights' deluge, he may have a point there. The field is so wet the turf is practically floating. There s no drainago at all, except water runs off the higher ground in the center of the lot down to the lowlands at the end zones, and the Prep Squads Facing Easy Weekend ,' Hood River-Comas Match Is Toughest On Card For District Leaders By A. 3. BURNS Associated Press Staff Writer Oregon's prep gridiron race goes into the home stretch to morrow with only one title as pirant facing a rugged tilt and the rest concentrating on Tor nado trouble. , , Nine of the ten squads ranked as top title contenders will take on easy opponents offering little .. threat to laurel hopes. The stiff ,: contest goes to unbeaten, untied t Hood River, which entertains jCamas, Wash., in a tilt which may indicate where the district I 1 crown is going. f Camas 1 is - the ' only squad which has beaten the other dis w trict 1 powerhouse, The Dalles. ,;if Hood River emerges on top, bets will be down on the -.Dragons to defeat ' The Dalles -next weekend and take the dis trict title. The Dalles will host a com iCparatively stiff eleven, Central -Catholic of Portland, but should corne out ahead. In three other ections, perfect-record contend, 'rers are expected to stay that Xway: Medford, which hosts iBend; McMinville, which goes Ho Newberg; and Grant of Port land, . against Franklin of Port Cland. The tangled title contest of district 3's southern division de iveloped a few more knots today. "Lebanon, which was booted out jof title talk on a typographical ,error (one of its early games was -reported 0-0 instead of 26-0), put !?in astrongsbid for the laurels. iThe Warriors have lost only one sgame an out-of -district tilt with Roseburg and play more dis Jtrict contests than any other contender. e Simultaneously, the puzzle of -whether schools voting .for the wtitlists will count only district victories rose up to threaten JSCorvallis. The Spartans have a -lone defeat, which was out of district, but they play only lour district games: less than Leb ilanon or the little perfect-record -.elevens: Woodburn and Cottage rGrove. ; . , ii All four face easy opponents t -tomorrow: Woodburn going to jChemawa; Cottage Grove enter ctaining University high; Leb anon hosting Albany; Corvallis Jrentertaining Redmond. . m With a general easy weekend Hn prospect, title-hopers were Jcrinkling brows over a way to ..halt a hurricane that will face Mhe title winners. For Medford's "Black Tornado, a once-in-a-yquarter-century eleven which -has blasted everything in sight for two years, gives no sign of "stopping until it grasps a second i. straight state crown. -23-Pound Silverside Wins Waldport Derby WALDPORT, Nov. 1 (iP) Winners of $100 war bond grand iprizes in the 1945 Waldport Sal omon derby listed today were "John D.

WALDORF'S 20TH YEAR EVANSTON Lynn Waldorf of Northwestern is observing his 20th year in the football coaching profession. Marines Will Season With Surviving rapid-fire casualties by way of discharge, including player-coach Maj. Dale De Koster, a patched-up marine basketball squad has begun daily practice and present indications are that the leathernecks will be short on altitude but long on speed and aggressiveness. While no first-string quint can be selected this early, a combination of Banner, Var ment. Semsky, Adams and Meath ran hog-wild through other groupings of th 20-man squad in praciic Tuesday and Wednesday. Bruce Benner, a ' slim six footer with two years at Indiana and a year of cage with the Kansas City Oilers, looks very good at right guard. Teamed with him in the back court is Eddie Meath, holdover from last year's marine five. Last season Eddie consistently sparked the leathernecks with set shots from just outside the key and timely fast-break shots from close under the basket. In the pivot spot is 8' 3" Ernie Semsky, high scorer of the local Marine Corps league five last year. Here's A Ticklish One iiiiiiilwltttllf,wiirHi-,-rrl ...-m,.t. ... . .

EUGENE FAVORED OVER IC-MEN By HALE SCARBROUGH - Wliilo not huvlim the tradi tional rivalry of the Klamath Medford gnnio, tho PclicBU-Axo. men encounter tomorrow night is not without procodont, and In tho past few years Klamath has gotten all the best of it. In 1936 we took the Axemen, 22-0. Then camo a lapse of three years with no meeting, and In 1940 tho Pels enmo out on top 32 to 0, Next year the same story, but not qulto so bad, 13-0. In 1942 tho Axemen scored once on tho 'Pels and tho filial count was 34-6. Than In 1943, the last gt-to-gthr, th result was a scorls tie. In five games w scorad 101 points, averaging 20 par gam, and the Axeman tallied only twice ior 12 points, making thair average ligur out about one ninth of vura. Twenty points would lok very good on Klamuth's side of the scoreboard tomorrow night. Now for a comparison of this season's records, and a different tune on the fiddle. As you prob ably know already, the Pelicans have won two tilts, beating Ash land and Salem, and dropped Conn Blasts Tunney As 'Playboy Admiral' PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1 VP) Billy Conn, angry that Navy Lieut. Cmdr. Gene Tunney as serted his June title bout with Joe Louis would be a "flop, said the former world heavy weight champion was - talking like a "playboy admiral," the Philadelphia Record reported to day. Conn told the Record In a telephone interview from Pitts burgh that Tunncy's charge was "ridiculous." Tunney had stated that if the Conn-Louis fight is held it "will be drastically in jurious to boxing" because neith er man had fought in over three years except in exhibition bouts. The Record jsaid "Conn's countcrthrust was unprintable," but quoted theNiallcngcr: , "It's lucky tho fellows in the army weren't like him (Tunney). Ho thought the war could be won by doing pushups." Tunney, in condemning the fight, said the Pittsburgh boxer recently discharged from serv ice "has not been a teetotaler." "That shows you how ridicu lous Tunney is, Conn was quot ed in the Record. "I take a little drink now and then. I don't smoke or chew. But Tunney has said if Louis smoked for six weeks he himself could beat him in his present condition. "That's a joke. Joe could smoke a whole tobacco factory and still lick Tunney without any trouble." Louis Airs Views On Coming Fight With Billy Conn OAKLAND, Calif., Nov. 1 (IP) Plain citizen Joe Loui;, erst while technical sergeant in the army and a handy man to have around in case of a "beef," said today: (1) he'll have to knock out Billy Conn to win their bout for the world's heavyweight championship next summer. (2) Baseball did itself a serv ice through the signing of Jackie Robinson, negro star, by the Brooklyn farm club at Montreal. (3) Golf is fun. Louis, king of - the heavy weights, had this to say about Conn: "I knew I was behind on points going into the 13th round the first time I fought him. May be my handlers thought I wasn't but I saw a lot of Billy's gloves and I knew best. I expect him to out-box mc again. That man, he's fast, mister. But I'll beat him and the only way I can do it is cool him. When? Soon as I can." In India floats to ferry people across swollen streams arc made of pottery.
