'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.

High Schools Eager For Jamboree
When the various high school grid teams in this district were
contacted about the Saturday afternoon football jamboree, with
out exception they jumped at the
field, offering immediately to bring along tneir
bands, cheer leaders, whole student bodies and
families, so a crowd as big as the one at the
Medford game will probably show up at the
field for the jamboree. 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

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.
