A "Batlle of Spirits" seems to be coming forth Irom this Fri day night's high school football game between Klamath Falls anil Medford as reports from both camps Indicate that the teams are filled with fighting spirit for the Bourthern Oregon Oonlerence and District t game. Coach John McGinnis and the KUHS Pelicans are loaded witn plenty of team cooperation and spirit, more so this teason than in the past several years, while Medford and head coach Fred Splegelberg have had extremely high spirits this season and will undoubtedly keep up the high pitch for the Important Friday night clash. FAVORITE Medford will rule lis the sligm favorite for the first time in sev eral years, with their number two rating in the AP high school foot ball poll, while the Pels Just man aged to sneak Into the number 10 spot. . All records of past seasons and games played this season wilt go The Klamath Union Hilb gchool-Reno football game set for Friday, October 22. has been moved to 3:00 Saturday afternoon October 23, according to Joe Peak director of athlet ics at KUHS. The move was necessitated when the Reno High School was nable lo make arrangement with the college on use of the lighted football field In Reno. out the window for this vital scrap between two fine high school grid teams, as anything and everything is put out by both teams and coaching staffs for the win. It has been the ruling In past sea sons, that a win over Medford for the Pels, or visa-versa would con stitute a successful season for the coaches. .' ' Splegelberg is not talking too much about the outcome of the league game, but his line coach, Paul "Tiny" Evensen has made a staisment indicating that the Klamath Falls line will have to go quite a lot to out maneuver his seven man forward wall, both de fensively and offensively. On this side of the hill, the coaching staff is also quiet, but! McOlnnls and his two-man strat egy board nave indicated that Medford will meet the best team they have played so far this year, and It may be scored upon more than three times this season come Saturday morning.

LINE PLAY In the line play, that will throw definite light on the outcome of the game, both sides will be tops, as Medford has Bron Onelsby, Monte Hoist, Paul Eckle and Big Mike" DeVore leading the stellar Tornado forward wall, while Russell has Modesto "Might Mo" Jimenez, who as a Junior Is taken by many as one of the best linemen in .the entire state, little Scotty Hancock, who makes up his size with speed and determination, and Elvis Mitchell, a returning lotterman end, "Who gave Medford plenty uf worries last year when the Pels posted a 26-18 win over the Torna do machine. On records of games this season, Klamath would have to be given the edge over the home team, but nothing can be determined when these two clubs meet. Klamath walked over Ashland with their entire squad and seeing duty the first string backfleld played a lit tle more than a quarter, while Medford which beat the Grizzlies bad also, used their starters To finish up tlie game. But word from Ashland followers Is that against Medford and Grants Pass, Ash land played far better ball.

SPORT HAL'S SH0P S32 Main Shaping Lining TP"; Powell Rated High By Experts SAN FRANCISCO Ifl Charlie Powell, the 22-year-old ring giant who was stopped here last week, is still the best prospect the heavy weight division has produced in this country since Rocky Marciano. Who says so? Fight experts who saw Powell suffer a seventh-round technical knockout at the hands of Charley Norkus say so. Evaluation of the former San Francisco 49ers football player was still going on a week later. J.J. (Moose) Taussig, whose Wil lie Meehan thumped out a four round decision over Jack Demp sey in 1918, said he thought Powell had a brilliant future. "Powell may be champion in a year or two," Taussig observed. "He's the best I've seen come along since Marciano." Sid Flaherty, manager of mid dleweight champion Carl (Bobo) Olson, described Powell as a "line prospect.;' Billy Newman, an old- timer in the game echoed these sentiments. Powell showed that he could take a' real clout on the jaw. He stood up under at least a dozen lefts and rights that would have felled an ox. He fought from the second round on with a dislocated finger on his right hand yet was ahead on points on all the cards at the end of the sixth. Tills was Powell's 13th fight and all hands judged him a top pros pect in spite of the defeat his first, Al Weill, manager of Marciano, was so impressed with Powell's ability he offered Suey Welcn $25, GOO for the big fellow's contract. "If Charlie is worth that much to Weill he's worth twice as much to me," the manager snorted. AND SIDING 5$$ SAVE $$$ Deal with the man who don the work W. S.

TOP MAN It was Johnson. 47, a top man in a business that grossed 70 mil lion dollars last year the Auto matic Canteeu Co. of America who found that money on the bar relhead speaks loudest. In the final analysis, his bid of $3,375,000 to buy out the Macks- Roy, Earle and Cononie including Connie Mack Stadium, was irresist ible. Will Harridge, president of the American League, said it was the only "sound" offer made. Officially, the deal for the 54- year-old franchise will not be closed until Monday. In what was assumed to be merely a gesture, Roy Mack was given until 11 a.m., EST, on that day to announce It he will sell his stock to Johnson. TECHNICALITY This was regarded only a small technicality and a league spokes man said that Roy "told the meet ing that he wanted the sale to Johnson completed." This admission removed the on'.v block, for Roy strongly had op posed nis orotner Earle and 02- year old father Connie in the sale ana tried desperately, but vainlv. to raise enough capital to keep uie. ueoi-mirea ciuo in Philadel- phia.

TRANSACTION He said he plans to sell Connie Mack Stadium to Bob Carpenter. owner of the Philadelphia Phillies, who has been leasing it from the Macks, and probably will close this transaction In Philadelphia this weekend. "As for Roy Mack, I plan to offer him a responsible position In the Kansas City organization." Johnson said. "And I also must give thought to hiring a general manager and field manager. I'll do the selecting of them myself."
