PACE SIX HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON t R I DAY, OCT. 28. T4f CBUC AD WS PBJKAMS fn Grid Rivals Square Off Tonight Under Grants Pass Lights Class D Will Play 140 Games REDDINO. Calif, Oct. 18 ) Director of th clu D Far West baseball league hive decided on a 1950 schedule ol 140 games, com pared with 138 thia jrear. League President Jerry Donovan said It Is certain the league will hare eight teams, although It is not known what cities will replace two which quit last season. The director voted at a meeting here yesterday to divert one cent from each admission to the league treasury. The all-star game between north and south was set for July 11 at Medford, and the playoffs after the regular season will be best three ou' of five. Showdown Football Wrangle Toss-up; Teams Eye State By RED HVftD Tonight under the Orants Pass lights 107 mile to the west the Klamath Palls Pelicans will try to topple the IMS state football cham pions, the highly-rated Cavemen. Both teams have clean slate In league competition and the winner will no doubt get the Job of trying to bring the IMS state champion ship to district J. Both the Pels and the Cavemen have bagged five victories. Klamath chopped only one contort thia sea- son, the opening kings-X skirmish to Grant of Portland. Orants Pass has yet to suffer a loss. This Is game that has the ex perts working overtime trying to dope the game. There will be no favorite. At this writing, its an enn -money, take-your-choice af fair. The Black Tornado of Medford was transformed Into a mild sephvr by both elevens, althonsh Klamath slid the more convincing Job with a 11 te ( srare. The Cavemen, al legedly raftering from an aeate ease of swelliUa. bsd to stare a foarth-eoarter rally last week to pend the Tornado, 1 to (. The only other common foe of both Klamath and Grants Pass this season was the Ashland team. Here the comparative score picture Is changed. PLACEMENTS WIN' The Pels, having trouble shift ing Into high gear, won over the Griszlles on three placements from the sure toe of Dale Carr. 11-18. The Cavemen, however, rang up a lop-sided 46-14 score over Ashland. Grants Pass hopes will hinge on the hard-charging thrust of big Vera Craft, halfback. The other halfback, elusive Bobby Davis, also poses a threat although he is nurs ing an Injured arm. Hon tier, Pels aren't baahfnl In pi tinting Halfbacks Joe Niche to sad Gene Carlson in matching Craft and Davis yard for yard. From this end, the passing quali ty of the Cavemen la ankmnrn aa to Its accuracy. Fundamentally, It is aot a passing team that Gon saga' Mel Ingram will field. A weak passing attack on the part of the Pelicans In early sea son has turned into s definite threat in the last two contests. If any edge Is due. the Cave men rates the nod on s weight bulge and playing on Its own field. EDGE EVENED However, this advantage, may be evened if Injury report from Grant Pass hold true. In addition to Davis. End Don Hedgepeth and Tackle Cliff Brumbeloe are not in top shape. Pelican Tackle John Witte was nursing a touchy hip early this week but reports have it hell be ready for top performance tonight. Although the Pelican forward Wall will be outacaled. the expert esice ht on Ita aide and touchdown paths abould be opened for Nichols, Carlson. Joe Demetrakos and com pany. If there Is any psychological angle, that too would stack up even. The Cavemen will be zeal ously guarding it reputation as IMS state grid kings; the Pels wlU just a zealously aim for the title of the team that knocked over the champions. State play his evaded the Pels for many years and the Ked-and-White will be anxious to get back fa) the big swim. A capacity crowd ia expected when the ball la placed down for the opening kirkoff at 8 o'clock. Both Coach Bob Hendershott of the Pels and Ingram know that It will take a heads-up performance, sharp blocking and tackling a;.d smart play-calling to win this cru cial game. The blue chips are in the pot. Both teams will be ready to Dlsv the winning hand. I WILClub Switched BREMERTON.

El, Oct. 28 UP, Tm often asked if there wasnt some other game In which I re ceived a greater thrill than the 1924 Illinois-Michigan game. Now, the 1918 upset of Minnesota was a great day In my coaching career. Still, nothing could surpass that day October 18, 1924, when Harold Red" Orange routed Mich igan. The 1918 victory was for survival (when Illinois defeated a mighty Minnesota team 18-9), but the 1924 game was for glory. The 1924 triumph over Michigan had the perfect setting. We were dedicating our great stadium. It waa homecoming and there was a capacity crowd of 87,000 fans in the stands. Michigan and Illinois were undefeated co-champlons of' the "Big Ten" the year before when they did not meet and still were unbeaten on this day. The teams appeared evenly matched. So the resulting 39-14 victory with Orange running wild In the first 12 minutes was one of those things that only happens once In a century. From that viewpoint this game had to be the greatest of my life. I've been asked, too, why I took Grange out of that game after he bad scored four touchdowns on long runs In the first 12 minutes. Well. I had two reasons. One was fear of injury to "Red." I remem bered a game of the past when I had allowed Harold Pogue and Potsy Clark to re-enter a game against the Rolla School of Mines when we were leading by six or seven touchdowns. Pogue got a broken Jaw and Clark a couple of sprained ankles. The second reason la that I dldnt want to poll the show. After all, if Red had Just kept making touch downs it soon wouldn't have meant anything. The fans would have Just figured Michigan was a bad team and that Orange' runs meant nothing. You must have proportion and balance. SHOTGUN SHELLS BELL'S hove your favorite brand and shot size at th following popular prices: Box Case 12-Ga. Heavy Load $2.50 $47.50 16-Ga.

It was an un usually warm day and I felt the players might get relief by remov ing their stockings. Fielding Yost (Michigan's coach) Immediately suspected a trick I was supposed to be a sly guy you know and had the officials feel our boys' legs to see If they were greased. It wasnt a trick Just try ing to make the players feel cool. Herb Steger, the Michigan captain now a Big Ten official), still says that stunt bothered Michigan a lot and that Michigan didn't have Its mind on the game. In the locked room, too, I re member drawing a gigantic "3" on the blackboard and stressing to Orange that this was the way he must run. Orange, you know, liked to head for the sidelines. He was taught to reverse at Illinois. I recall saying over and over to Orange: 'Reverse. Red, reverse." vbArvvy Hugh Fullertoii NEW YORK, Oct 38 l- Notre Dame's "Four Horsemen" have been around town, starting to whoop It up for their 2Mb anniversary gath ering nest month. . -and seeing thoae four guys together takes you back, not 25 but 28 years, to an Oc toiier afternoon when you were a onhomore silting in the cheering section at Princeton's Palmer stadl. urn. . .the 'Tour Horsemen" tag hadnt been coined then and Notre Dame wan't as famous as It Is now. , .the proper Prlncetonlans even tried to give It a French pro nunciation aa Uiey cheered for "No truh Dahm" and the Iruh followers on the other side firmly corrected them: "Noiur Dsyme.". .The lrlh, it seems, were right about every thing that aliernoun. t'ooltull was a lllllr different and a touchdown looked big In those one- platoon days. . II wasn't until ths next fall that Knute Rockne con ceived the Idea of starting his "shot-k troops" and playing them through the first quarter. ... but Princeton didn't have a good team that year and Notre Dime, fresh from a victory over Army, obvious ly did. . .you didn't know how good until you saw them in action. . , and you still reinenibrr how clean ly little Harry Stuhtttreher could flatten an opposing end with a roll ing block and the wtudom of his signal calling. . and how slender Elmer Layden seemed to slip through holes In the line without be ing touched. . .those four touch downs were maybe a little more than you had anticipated, but It was not entirely a lost afternoon. . .on one occasion the Princeton line managed to shove the "liamblers" back and block a punt for a safety . . . the 28-2 count indicated your guys had at least done something to uphold the fading prestige of the big three. Notre Dame, which would play anybody anywhere in those days, r: urned to Princeton the nest fall as a great team. . . It had earned fame and reams of publicity. , .the shock troops were working and you felt It was a bit unfair that a coach should have a second team strong enough to hold the opposition for an entire quarter so he could send in fresh ground-gainers In the second period. . , the rule In those days was that a player once removed from a game couldn't return in the same half. , another Notre Dam lr.novatlon wss the revival of the "flying wedge" formation on kirk off returns. , and you got a great kick out of It yourself when Ed Mc Millsn raced down under the kick off, bowled over the key man Just as the wedge was forming and spilled the runner. . .When Charley Caldwell performed some remark able tackling feata, a rookie named Jake Slagle flashed some good run nlng and the 12-0 count wasn't as bad as you had expected. Yeu'd hardly lake those four guys for a quartet of ex-football players now, though plumplsh, good humor ed Jim Crowley and Don Miller look big enough. , .compared to today's behemoths, youd think stubby, balding Stuhldreher must have been the water boy Layden, not much heavier than he was 28 years ago. could pass for a former student manager, . . and you wouldn't trade Upset Wizard Picks Pitt Over Penn, Washington Over Trojans It Pays to Use the Want-Ads.
