5 'Cats End 1945 Grid Schedule 31-0 Lou To Merrill Putt Record At One Victory And Six Defcoti By WESLEY ROBINSON KUHS Krater Last Friday's 31-0 defeat by Merrill officially ended the Wildcat grid season, making their record one win against six lasses, although the 'Cats will tako part in the football jam boree on Modoc field Saturday afternoon. Pat Hammond, halfback for in Huikiei, wai unstoppable lait Friday, icoring all five of Merrill' touchdowns, three of them in the first quarter. One came on a 35-yard gallop and two others on passes from Quarterback Bill Noonan. The Wildcats were outweighed about 10 pounds per man in both the backfiold and line by the smooth-working Huskies and threatened only twice, in the sec ond and fourth periods. Dale Walker, Ronnie Trotman, Walt Fotheringham and Carol Kandra played sterling ball in the Huskies' line, stopping Wild cat ground plays almost before thev got started. A change in the Wildcat back field was made during the play ing with Jim Crossley at quar terback and Ray Zirkle filling the fullback position. Klamath resorted to passes late in the game, with Cross ley heaving the apple, that proved more successful than a line-plunge. Fumbles again lost many chances - for the 'Cats, besides setting the way for Husky touchdowns to be made. Merrill made or set up 24 points of its lopsided score on an end run and lateral type of play, used extensively last year by the Wildcats. Also, deception plays were used to good advantage in a variation of a wing shift. i Post-Season I Game Eyed i For Medford Falling In line with the sug gestion that the Medford foot ball team play an intersectional post-season game, the Quarter back club voted yesterday to assist Medford boosters in ar ranging for the trip if the Tor nadoes are in the market for an extra game. It is understood that some Medford citizens are getting up money to send the Tornado squad down to San Francisco to see the annual East-West game at Kezar stadium New Year's Day, so they may not be inter ested in playing an intersection al game. Also the club decided to select a citizens' committee at its next meeting to work with the high school and grade school coaches and players, mainly to iron out wrinkles in the football setup and find means of bettering Klamath Falls' future gridiron outlook. A committee of this sort was in operation before the war and at that time football was at its highest peak here. Lt. Col. Raymond W. Hanson of the Marine Barracks, who was a football and basketball coach" in Indiana as a civilian, was the principal speaker at Monday's luncheon. His talk con cerned postwar football, parti cularly in Klamath Falls, and he stated that the youth of a good many boys on the Pelican squad was one of the biggest handicaps the local team had this year. Coach Paul Angstead declar ed that last week's game with Eugene was the best his boys have played all season. He had as his guests at the luncheon Scott Reed, tackle, who will play his last game for the Pelicans against Bend, and Bob Mocabee, halfback. Next Monday's meeting' will be the last for this year for the Quarterback club, and officers for next year will be elected then. Welch Gives Huskies Lecture On Fog SEATTLE, Nov. 6 (P) Wash ington Husky's Coach Pest Welch spent the first practice session for this week's coming football fracas with Oregon State lectur ing his boys on fog. He is, it seems, afraid of run ning into the murk one of these Saturday's . . . "Mental and phy sical fog like we did in Berk eley," he explained. He may have been thinking mostly of the mental kind. The Huskys have been stopped only once this season, by the Berkeley boys of the University of California.

ARMY, IRISH STILL By MURRAY ROSE NEW YORK, Nov. 6 (Ala bama's big Red Elephants and St. Mary's fleet teen-agers have zoomed into higher positions in the ratings of the first 10 col lege football elevens as the re sult of their latest impressive, tri umphs. Alabama, fourth a week ago and almost a cinch to maintain its unbeaten and untied rec ord, jumped into third ahead of Navy following the Crimson Tide's 60-19 massacre of Ken tucky and the Tars' second nar row squeak in a row, a 6-6 tie with Notre Dame. The Gaels from California proved their class Saturday in walloping Southern California 26-0 and sports writers the coun try over, voting in The Asso ciated Press' weekly poll, show ered enough ballots on Jimmy Phelan's gridders to boost them into fifth place. The all-conquering Gaels were rated eighth last week. Army and Noire Dame still ran one-two in the balloting but the Irish had a narrow edge over Alabama. Of the 101 votes cast, Army received 86 first place nomina tions and 982 points, based on 10 for first, nine for second, etc Notre Dame collected three top votes and 804 points while Ala bama garnered four first placers and 799 points. Navy got three first- place votes and 702 points. St. Mary's was honored with two top bids and 486 points and sixth place Indiana was the recipient of the three other No. 1 votes and 485 points. The rest of the top 10 was made up of Michigan, Ohio State, Pennsylvania and Colum bia in order. It was Columbia's first trip into the first 10 and Okla homa's Aggies, idle last Satur day, made room for the Lions by dropping from ninth to eleventh. Three of the big contests next Saturday match members of football's aristocracy. Army Dlays Notre Dame at the Yankee Stadium, Navy onpnses Michigan in Baltimore and Columbia and Pennsylvania will battle it out for Ivy league honors in Phila delphia.

At a bond each, the show is expected to give the Klamath county Victory Loan drive a big , boost toward reaching the quota. Along with the jamboree the marines here will be celebrating the corps' 170th birthday, holding open house at the Barracks, so people coming into town for the football fiesta are in vited to go out and look the military installation Cook Going Great At Jefferson Anvone wantine to find Marble Cook after working hours these days would land greyhound track. Jn addition to his lootoan cnores at jeiier son high, Marble is a pari-mutuel bookie at the dog races. Cook's Jefferson team is setting the City of Roses high school grid league on fire this year, undefeated as yet and facing the Grant Generals for the city title next Friday. The winner of that game will probably have s crack at Medford later on., - - r . , Marble Cook introduced the T at KUHS last-year and also a number of the same plays the Pels are using now. He had only indifferent success during the season won three, lost three, tied one and wasn't too popular with the armchair quarterbacks. So he left here, went to Portland and now has one of the four best high school teams in the state, using the same system and same plays he taught here. Preview Of 1949 Pelicans Out on the rocky Mills field yesterday afternoon we saw a couple of Pelicans of 1949 in action as Mills beat Riverside 19-0 for the city grade school touch-tackle laurels. . A stocky youngster named Gaynor Huck and a tall, rangy kid named Jerry Liable put on the best broken-field running and in that game that means ball-toting without a hand being laid on you we've seen on any gridiron this year, and the same two lads have been doing it right along in the grade school tourney. Huck ran back a punt 45 yards to score, Liable took the next one back 50 yards, and then Huck intercepted a pass and jogged 25 yards over the Riverside goal. That was all the scoring, but Huck made another 45-yard gallop that was nullified by a penalty. When the Quarterback club gets its citizens' football commit tee into operation its first job ought to be seeing that those two boys don't quit school, move out of town, get killed or do anything else drastic before they are old enough to play for the Pelicans. he committee can ' also keep a fatherly eye on Dale Carr, Bob Everett and Buzz Beck of the Riverside troupe.

Gnynor Huck, Mills high-scoring halfback, opened the scoring in the first quarter by taking a Riverside punt and dashing 43 yards into pay dirt. Ho kicked the extra marker from place ment. Then a few minutes later Jerry Laible pulled the same stunt, snaring a punt on the SO and travelling across. A pass for the point was no good. The third touchdown came late in the second quarter when Huck intercepted a Riverside pass on the 23 and outran tho en tire field to score. At tho start of his run he hud good blocking by Alfredo Herrera, Liable and Bert BuffiiiRton. With the count 19-0 the scor ing ended, although Mills came close in the last quarter. It wns Huck again, around end for 45 yards, but a penalty called the play dock. Riverside's style of play called for more deception than speed. They made several nice qalni on cutbacks and reverses but never threatened Mills' early lead. ' Johnny Lynch, marine athlete who is coaching the Mills young sters, has a smooth-workinu. lightning fast aggregation which has easily outclassed the remain der of the school league. Also' good on defense, they haven't teen scored on in cigiu games. Freak Gunshot Kills Hunter In Lake County Bob Neal. Fort Rock rancher, killed in a hunting accident while winding up deer season in Lake county last Friday, was the only hunting fatality in that county so far tnis season.
