Phoenix Pirates
The Ashland Grizzlies stomp
ed the Phoenix Pirates here,
Friday, September 19, by a
score of 44-6.
Four plays after taking a
Phoenix punt, Jim Jeffries
went all the way for the score,
and Clyde James kicked the ex
tra point.
With only three minutes
gone in the second quarter,
Clyde James passed to Richie
Taylor for the second tally and
James' kick was again good.
Harrell Castle, playing as
qarterback, recovered a Pirate
tumble, and later Ted Tenny
raced 19 yards to make the
score 20-0. The kick for the
extra point was no good. The
Pirates were again stopped on
the Grizzly's 23 yard line and
len Tenny broke loose and al
most went the full distance,
but he was tackled on the
Phoenix 16 Vard stripe. Mel
Taylor carried the ball for
five more yards, and Jeffries
went the rest of the way to pay
dirt. Wayne South recovered a
fumble on the Phoenix 17 and
with time for only one play,
Clyde James threw a long pass
to Walt McCoy in the end zone
for a score. The first half end
ed with a score of 32-0.
In the third quarter the Pi
rates were in Ashland terri
tory several times, but they
were unable to make a tally.
In the last quarter with five
minutes gone, Richie Taylor
intercepted a pass on the Ash
land 30 yard line and ran back
to the 48 of Ashland where Mel
Taylor ran 52 yards to pay
dirt. This was a rather strange
play because there were only
ten Grizzlies on the field.
The last Ashland touchdown
came when Jim Jeffries inter
cepted a pass and ran 55 yards
to the end zone.
In the last minutes of the
game, with many Ashland sub
stitutes, Phoenix tallied as
Waldron ran a kick off back to
the Phoenix 37 where Perry
passed to Holt who went into
the end zone making the score
44-6 in favor of the Ashland
Grizzlies.
Medford Edges Hard
Fighting Grizzlies
SELBY CHEVROLET CO.
Across from The Bank
The Ashland Grizzlies play
ed one of the best football
games seen in the city for sev
eral years, September 12 when
they almost upset the Medford
Black Tornados in the season's
opener.
Holding the highly-touted
Black Tornados to a scoreless
first quarter was not the only
special talent exhibited by the
Ashland team.
The first Medford touchdown
came after the second quarter
began, though it was set up in
the first quarter when a pass
from center to punter Mel Tay
lor was high and Taylor was
grounded on his own 30. Med
ford made it to the Ashland 15
at the end of the quarter, and
three plays later, quarterback
Hanscom flipped a pass to half
back Ron Spinas, who took the
ball on Ashland 10 and strode
over the goal line. Crippen's
kick was good.
A few plays later the Grizz
lies were back in the game
when right end Bill Bates
scooped up a Medford fumble
and sprinted into the end zone
standing up. A pass attempt
from James to Bates for the ex
tra point was incomplete.
With less than a minute left
in the first half, tackle Bob
Delsman repeated the trick by
grabbing another fumble and
going 42 yards to pay dirt.
Delsman repeated the trick by
grabbing another fumble and
going 42 yards to pay dirt.
Delsman s run was set up by a
key block made by Richie Tay
lor who neatly took a Medford
player out of play to open the
way for the score. The attempt
for the second extra point was
no good, and the Ashland Griz
zlies left the field with a 12 to
7 lead at half-time. This is
something that has not hap
pened in the Ashland-Medford
series for years.
It wasn't until late in the
third quarter that Medford had
its winning score, after a n
Ashland fumble on its own 28.
Clyde James, quarterback,
bobbled the ball on a Jiandoff,
and Morris recovered. In six
plays, five of which the ball
was carried by fullback Jack
Moad, the Tornados had their !
thirteenth point and the ball
game.
Fullback Wayne South and
halfback Mel Taylor provided
some threatening runs when
the down field blocking click
ed, although the Grizzlies of
fence never succeeded to pass
the Medford 30. It was the de
fense however that caught the
crowds attention. The Griz
zlies were outweighed by about
15 pounds per man, which gave
the Medford team an advant
age, although their weight did
not always help as the Grizzly
line stopped the Medford
Backs, time after time. The
pass defense proved to be ex
ceptionally good also as Med
ford only completed 2 of the
8 pass attempts, although one
of these brought the first score.
Chieftains Trounced
By Fighting Grizzlies
Cavemen Down
GriZZIies 32-6
The Grants Pass Cavemen
went on a five-touchdown spree
September 26 to score a 32 to
6 victory over the Ashland
Grizzlies. It was the seventh
consecutive win over the Griz
zlies in as many years.
Although dead tired at the
end of the game, the out-numbered
Grizzlies still were try
ing to stop the Cavemen and
actually held them .better than
in the first half.
The Grizzlies gave good ac
count of themselves during the' I
first half as they gained a
score-tieing touchdown on the
second play of the second
quarter. Jim Jeffries broks a-
way through the left side of the
Grants Pass line and nearly
outfaked the ' secondary to
score a 74-yard tally. James'
kick was partially blocked.
Three plays after the kickoff.
Grants Pass had its second
score as Bob Woods, who scor
ed 19 points altogether, skirted
around his own right end from
56 yards out.
The Cavemen overran the
Grizzlies both from scrimmage
and passing. They racked up
408 yards on the ground and
151 yards in the air. While the
Grizzlies could only account
for 148 from scrimmage and
12 through the air.
Grants Pass had 16 first
downs to Ashland's six.
