HALE SCARBHOUGH The Marines arc boning up 011 Navycat tactics and putting the finishing touches to their own plavs in a skull session today in preparation for the opening kickoff of their same with Wil- 4 jnf limctte's navy boys on Modoc field tomorrow afternoon.

Coach Clyde C. Roberts' Leathernecks have had only three weeks of practice, and slightly more than a week of actual scrimmage and running plays, but a smooth-working grid machine has been developed which should give Klamath Falls fans a chance to see some high-caliber football. A sell-out crowd is expected to jam Modoe fields 4200 seats to capacity by the start of the tilt at 2 o'clock. Reserve seats have been on sale at the junior chamber of commerce and at the Barracks for several days, and unreserved tickets may be bought at the gate. Arrangements have been made for the marines to sit -in 'the 'east rlaht mill L.aol.

Thej lsalhcrnecki art champing at the bit waiting for th ooanlng whittlt neck cheering section has also been formed, bringing an entirely collegiate atmosphere to the stadium. Tomorrow's grid battle will not be M'oadeast, but the lineups and pertinent facts will be announced over a public address system at the field during the game. Both the Murines and the Bearcats use an unbalanced line, single wing-back system, which stresses inside tackle plunges, spinners and reverses.

Willamette's offense is built around Floyd Simmons, fullback, who averaged about seven-yards a try against the tough Washington Huskies, and Don Rochon, freshman left halfback. The Marines will probably utilize a 6-2-2-1 defensive setup, and -the team overall averages 195 pounds outweighing Willamette 12-pounds per man. This game marks the opening of the grid season for the marines while Willamette has already played three matches. Coach Roberts inaugurated the Marine eleven just a few weeks ago, and sessions were in full swing even before a schedule had been arranged or couioment By PAUL HAINES backi Cpl. William Slvdorl.

Come to thing of it, there hasn't been a biggie battle here By JACK HAND (Auociatod Pri Sports WriUr) Rain sent the "experts" hunting for now angles today to figure out whether Detroit, St. Louis or New York would profit most by postponements in the American league pennant race.

The answer appeared to be Detroit. If it pours until Sunday night, the Tigers could sit homo by the fire and plan Ihcir world series strategy while the Browns, one game back, and the Yankees, three lengths out, rued lost opportunities. All clubs were scheduled for doubleheaders today after yesterday's complete washout but even another day of rain wouldn't wash any games off the calendar for keeps. The same teams play one another the rest of the season four games and could make them up with twins on both Saturday and Sunday. Steve O'Neill probably welcomed the downpour like a sharecropper in a drought as it gave him lime to rest his weary Detroit pitching stars, Dizzy Trout and Hal Ncwhousor.

But Rufe Gentry, scheduled to go yesterday with only two days rest, got an extra 24 hours before the pair with Washington, whom the Bengals have chewed 15 times in 18 starts. "Stubby" Overmire pitches the other. Both Luke Scwell and Joe McCarthy had their hurling departments in order for their final crucial scries. Ncls Potter, the ace of -the Browns staff with five wins in a row and 18 for the year, and Jack Kramer go today. Bob Muncrief and Denny Galehousc or Sig Jakucki follow up in the singles Saturday and Sunday, for St.

Louis. Hank Borowy and Ernie Bon-ham were on the Yankee list to tackle St. Louis today, with Marsc Joe insisting his boys still were in the race. Although two Detroit victories or two New York defeats would put the mathematical eliminator on the champs, they could pull to within a game of the lead by taking a pair today if Washington knocked off Detroit twice. In the east, the pennant-win-nine St.

The series stands at Oregon Prep Grid Season Gets Rolling Portland Show Expected to Break Attendance Records; Salem Eleven Big Favorite By Th.

Associated Press Oregon's 1944 prep grid season rolls into full swing tonight, (Friday), spotlighted by a Portland league jamboree expected to break attendance records. Grant high, defending state champion which steamrollered Klamath Falls in its opening tilt this year, is the favorite among the eight squads that will pair off by lot for a quarter of play apiece. The Salem Vikings, who emerged from victories over Milwaukie and Lincoln of Port-la as a potential pennant threat, are expected to keep their undefeated record in tonight's tilt against the Klamath Pelicans. The Vikings, playing on their home field, outweigh the visitors 14 pounds per man in the line and eight pounds in the backfield. Eugene, which is running even with Salem in the no-name league, will take on University high of Eugene.

The no-name league is quiet this weekend, as Milwaukie plays Prineville, Oregon City meets Beaverton, and twice-whitewashed Cor-vallis vies with Springfield in non-conference Games. Albany, another no name contestant, makes a delayed debut against Salem October 6. Astoria opens its season tonight against small Naselle high; and Lebanon makes the 1944 debut against Toledo. Other contests pit Vernonia and St. Helens; Silverton and Canby; Ashland and Yreka, Forest Grove and Scappoose; Central Catholic (Portland) and Hill Military (Portland).
