Navy radiophotoj -m a Wire Recording Fans Establish Exchange Club Chicago U.R) Wire recording fans throughout the world have banded together to form the "Wirespondence Club" for the mutual exchange of information on hobbies and other interests. The firm of Webster-Chicago, manufacturers of wire recording equipment, acts as a clearing house to exchange the spools of recordings between the 830 club members in 20 nations, including the United States. Junn Shirmer, an export employee of the recording firm and founder of the club, said the organization is particularly adaptable to activities based primarily on sound. Music Collected Shirmer himself is a collector of folk music. Through the club he has assembled a large collection of native music recorded for him by "wirespondents" in Tahiti, Haiti, New Zealand, Sweden and South America.

Other club members have exchanged recordings on a long list of subjects, including talks on hypnotism, he said. Shirmer said the idea for the blockaded Berlin two years ago ana ne lost contact witn nis mother In that city. Mother Gets Message An airlift pilot wrote the firm asking for a wire recording outfit. When Shirmer shipped it, he enclosed a 15-minute recorded message to his mother with a note to the pilot asking that he deliver it. The pilot did and then started recording messages of his own which he shipped out.

Later, a blind man in Massa chusetts started a "wirespondence" with a young man In New York. On one of the spools, the blind man introduced the New Yorker to a neighbor's daughter and the two started an exchange of their own A few months later the vonns couple were married. Shirmer said several housewives have joined the club because it offers a means to exchange recipes. FOOTBALL Eastern Washington 6. Western Washington 0 OCK 36.

There Kentucky Heads List Of Unbeaten New York, Nov. 6 U.R) Clean slates were as hard to find on college gridirons today as In class rooms after arithmetic drill, with only 32 unbeaten and untied college football teams still on the list after seven more were wiped off. There were only seven so- called major teams left unbeaten and untied, led by Kentucky's Wildcats, who had eight straight victories. The others were Wyoming and California with seven wins apiece, and Army, Princeton, Miami, and Oklahoma with six straight victories. One major team, top-ranking Southern Methodist, was eliminated, the Mustangs losing a 23 to 20 thriller to Texas.

Five Pennsylvania schools, Lehigh, Franklin Marshall, Bloomsburg, Carnegie Tech and Thiel, gave the Keystone state a good margin over all of tha others in the perfect record department. Wisconsin, Florida, California and Ohio still had three unbeaten and untied teams apiece. Best Represented With the teams from Pennsylvania getting almost half of the representation the east had the most perfect record teams, 11, while, the midwest had 9, the south 5, the Pacific coast 4, the southwest 2 and the Rockies 1. Once more Gustavus Adolphus was the big winner on the list with nine straight triumphs. Four other schools, Kentucky and three little toughies.

Lacrosse, Teachers, Xavier of Ohio and Abilene Christian of Texas, had eight straight wins. Morris Harvey's West Virginia powerhouse was the new scoring leader with 299 points in seven victories for an average of 42.7 points per game, topping the previous leader, Valparaiso of Indiana, which had a 42.1 average with 295 points In Its seven triumphs. Lacrosse had the most points, 324, but they were scored in eight games. Princeton was the leader in point-making among the major teams, with 228 In six games for a 37 6 average. The list of teams Included Lewis and Clark, Oregon, seven victories.

Newly-Weds Rush Back To Co-Star in Rodeo Boston, Nov. 8 (U.R) A rodeo steer wrestler and his cowgirl sweetheart were married last night in a wild west ceremony in St. Paul's cathedral and then hurried off to co-star in a rodeo.

1.000 1.000 .800 .750 .5 00 .500 .333 .000 .000 Washington State Stanford ...1 Oregon Stat 0 Oregon 0 San Francisco, Nov. 8 (U.R) California for the west and either Wisconsin or Illinois for; the Big Ten today appeared the probable foes for the Rose Bowl. However, there are a lot of "ifs" to be hurdleC before final settlement. While Coach Lynn (Pappy) Waldorf's big bad California Bears were rolling along on the crest of a seven-game win streak, there still are two major obstacles. The Bears must face a very good UCLA team Saturday.

If they win that one, they can assure themselves a tie for the championship but that still wouldn't get them to the Rose Bowl. The final game of the season is against Stanford, and this, one always is close. If the Bears should lose either one of these games, while Washington won its remaining tilts. Washington probably would get the bid to the New Year clas- sic because it has been longest away from the Bowl. In other words, California still has to win two very stiff games before it can make the trip.

Race Muddled The Big Ten race is even more muddled. Ohio State appears a cinch to win the championship, but conference rules prevent It from playing in the Bowl more than once in three yeara. Ohio State went last year. That leaves Wisconsin and Illinois with the best chances. Wisconsin has lost only one game, but must play Ohio State and that is expected to produce the Badgers' second loss.

Illinois has one defeat, but also still must play Ohio State. If Illinois loses that one and wins its other conference games, it will have a record of 4 and 2. Michigan could come In with the same record, but has a poor season outside the conference. However, Wisconsin then Ashland Eleven Beats Bulldogs Buck McCorkle and Everett Kastner chalked up Medford Junior high's two touchdowns Saturday as the Bulldogs lost to Ashland 27 to 12. It was Mod- ford's second loss of the season to Ashland.

The Bulldogs first touchdown came early in the second quarter. Bill Dyer intercepted a Lith- ian pass on the Ashland 37 and raced to the 12. There a rough ness penalty gave Medford the ball on the one-yard line. P. Corkle went over on the next play.

Medford' 41-yard scoring march in the fourth period was its snappiest of the evening. McCorkle put the ball on the 41 by returning a kick-off 38 yards. Kastner touchdowned on the sixth play of the drive. A couple of long gains by Dennis Faulk ner helped along the surge. The Bulldogs play at Grants Pass next Friday.

Texas Oklahoma Rematch Wanted Dallas. Nov. (U.R) Clamor mounted today for a re match between Texas and Oklahoma in the Cotton Bowl January 1. The spark that set off the talk was Texas' 23-20 upset of South ern Oregon's top-ranking Mus tangs last Saturday to move the Longhorns ahead in the race for the southwest conference championship and an automatic Cot ton Bowl bid. Plenty of groundwork had been laid, despite official deni als, for Oklahoma to play in the classic against SMU, the conference favorite before the Texas upset.

Pro Teams Try "New" Grid Weapon New York, Nov. 8 (U.R) Pro football field generals tried out a "new' idea in Sunday's games and it worked so well that: 1. The Cleveland Browns are In first place today in the American conference of the National Football league; 2.

The Philadel-phia Eagles have slipped to second, and 3. The New York Giants are tied with the Eagles for second. The "new weapon" that decid ed three of the six games played with the above results was to kick the ball for points, instead of shooting the works with the usual pass and prayer game. The Browns, who were high- scoring terrors of the old All- America conference for four years, moved into first place on the strength of one humble field goal that beat the Chicago Cubs, 10 to 7 a 17-yard boot by Lou (The Toe) Groza. The Eagles were ousted from first place as they bowed to the Pittsburgh Steelers, 9 to 7, and all of the Steelers' points were scored on field goals.

Joe Geri booted 'cm from distances of 11, 36 and 13 yards. The giants' produced the most spectacular field goal to beat the Washington Redskins, 24 to 21 Ray Poole booted it 40 yards with only four seconds to play to break a 21-21 tie. The other three games were settled In more "modern" fashion as the Los Angeles Rams whipped San Francisco, 28 to 21; the Chicago Bears downed Detroit, 33 to 21, and Baltimore beat Green Bay, 41 to 21.

Postponed The Jamboree was originally set for October 27 but was post poned by a heavy downpour. Members of the Kiwanis club feel, however, that the after-non time will prove more satis factory all the way around. More children and adults will be able to attend. Tickets purchased prior to the October 27 date will still be hon ored.

Gorkys to Be Partners In Tag Bout Mack Lillard today received a telegram from Soldat Gorky, bearded brother of Ivan, saying that "we 11 take on anything or anybody in a tag team match," thereby clinching the tag affair between the Russian brothers and Georges Dusette and George Craig for the main event of Thursday night's wrestling card at the armory. It will be a one-hour affair with two out of three falls deciding, Lillard said. The Gorkys are reported to be a hard combination to whip in a tag match and if Soldat's disregard for the rules is anything like his brother's, the sparks are expected to fly. Older Gorky Irked The older Gorky says he Is Irked over the way his brother has been treated by Referee Earl Yoakley and by other wrestlers and Dusette and Craig will be the first targets in squaring ac counts.

"We're a tough pair," Sold I wired Lillard, "and after one tag match most promoters find it difficult to get a referee to go Into the ring when we're working." A one hour curtain rnisrr, also for two out of three fnlls, will be announced tomorrow, Lillard said. Tickets for the stellnr team match are on sale at Brown's cafe, 101 East Main street. 1st College Grid Death Since 1947 Los Angeles, Nov. 8 (U.R) The first college player death since 1947 attributed directly to football injuries was reported today by the American Football Coaches association.

Medford Motors Phone 2-6157 t-a-sj I 2 if Conditions Favor Outbreak of Bubonic Pleague Chicago (U.R) A medical au thority reports that conditions in southwestern and western states are favorable for an outbreak of bubonic plague, known in medie val times as the "black death." Dr. Vernon B. Link, writing in the Journal of the American Med ical association, said an unusual number of isolated cases have occurred in New Mexico and other southwestern and western states during the last year.

Link, who is associated with the Western Communicable Disease Center laboratory in San Francisco, said most of the cases were believed to have been contracted from the fleas of Tats, squirrels and other animals. He said the real danger, however, lies in the fact that cases of the pneumonic type can be spread from person to person by coughing. "Unless plague is suspected, diagnosed and treated early, sooner or later a case will occur in which a pathologic pulmonary condition will develop and initiate a pneumonic outbreak with far more serious loss of life than generally occurs from the sporadic occurence of single bubonic cases," Link said. infected Rodents Found He said infected wild rodents have been found in California, Oregon. Montana, Idaho, Nevada, Utah.

Wyoming, Washington, Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Kansas and Texas. "Five eases of plague occurred in New Mexico from July, 1949, through July, 1950," Link said. "Eight additional suspected cases have been observed during the same period in California, Montana. Nevada. New Mexico, Texas and Utah.

These totals are considerably above previous averages." During recent years doctors have acquired two life-saving drugs, streptomycin and sulfadiazine, which have proved effective against the disease which, during the middle ages, killed a fourth of Europe's population in an almost continuous series of epidemics. -KAIIOKAt OISJUURS PIOD.
