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

CHAMPAIGN. 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.

I remember that before the game
I had the players on the field when
the sudden thought to remove their
stockings struck me. 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."

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

Oridlron enthusiasts have learned
to look to my sterling forecasts for
a number of upsets each Saturday.
Egad I This week la no exception.
My Hire recommended specula

overcome Michigan and Washington
to upset Southern California.
I have received mountains of let
ter commending me for my suc
cess In disgiioslng unexpected re
sults. On a recent Saturday, you
know. I picked Northwestern to beat
Michigan. Rice to prevail over
Southern Methodist, and "aula Cla
ra to beat UCLA.
Amassment was nation-wide
when these things actually hap
pened. "How do you do It?" on gen

the goofs who predict the end of
th world, and birds who say It's
going to rain because th rat

weirdest character I ever met."
