If any of you saw the game at Medford two years ago, you know
that Bud Provost Intercepted a Tiger pass and galloped 95 yards to
fame. This year we have a senior lad who ran 5 yards more than
that In the Weed game. Hats off to Barney Riggs!
Speaking of speed, did you apot the running of Weed's lanky
negro end, Scott, when he carried the ball 60 yards from the kickoff
for a touchdown. .
A high light of the early season was the use of a 6 man team
in a game between the Grizzly reserves and Jacksonville. Results

The Klamath R rater's fine tportsrmuihlp In picking Riggs as
the bet Individual on the field September 17, deserves a big hand
from the Grizzly rooters.
The Grizzlies will play their home game against the Grants Pass
Cavemen under the lights at Walter Phillips field tonight. The Cave
men have a strong team and expect to give our boys quite a battle.
They have a good line and a fair backfield that promises plenty of
speed and deception.
