The Ashland High Grizzlies j
should be winning! The Grizzlies I
could beat every team in the
league but they aren't. Why? The
biggest reason is the defeatist
attitude which seems to be pre
valent. Ashland High is larger
than Redmond, Prineville, and
Vreka. We should have beaten
them. In fact, if our team were
inspired, they could defeat any
school.
Why doesn't the team have the
will to win? Because the school
isn't backing them up and neither
are the parents of the player.
When the Grizzlies come home
from an away game, their parents
and fellow students greet them
with the statement, "The other
team was so much larger, and
it's a shame that you have to go
out there and play your hearts out
Pictured from left to right are Gale Tepper, Don Sorenson,
Dennis Ekwall, Mike Cotton, and Don Scholer.

when you can't win." Our team
doesn't need pity; it needs pride.
Another reason for Ashland's
losing is that there is a "lot of
beef" running up and down the
halls that should be out playing
for the team, giving it the boost
it needs to win.
Our team can win! Let's back
them up all the way!
Klamath JV's
Drop Ashland
Our junior varsity team went'
over the hill to tangle with the
Klamath cluh on Saturday after
noon. Sept. 29. They dropped the
;amc to the Klamath club by a
score of 33-0. The nearest our
team came to scoring was when
they reached the Klamath 25 yard
line. According to .Mr. Leybold,
our main problem was the lack
of experience and a weak
offense. Another cause was our
weak secondary defense which
let the Klamath club get by us
with long passes and runs around
the ends. He also stated that it
is hard to have a good junior
varsity team when the varsity is
made up of sophomores. Our
junior varsity team did a real
good job with what they had to
do with.

Bears Edged by
Cowboys 13-0
The Ashland Grizzlies were
edged 13 to 0 by the Prineville
Cowboys in a non-league football
game, September 29. This was a
tough game for the Bruins to lose.
Ashland led in statisics and had
many scoring opportunities but
were unable to get the ball to
paydirt. At one time Ron Boyce
ran 50 yards for a touchdown, but
it was called back because of a
clipping penalty. Bad breaks and
penalties hurt both teams.
Prineville scored in the first
and last quarters while the Bears
dominated the play during the
rest of the game. On the first
play from scrimmage, Larry Kirk-
patrick romped 57 yards to make
a touchdown for the Cowboys.
Dick Caudle ran the extra point.
In the second and in the third
quarter the Grizzlies were inside
the ten-yard line but Prinevillc's
terrific goal-line stand together
with Ashland's hard luck kept the
Bears from scoring. In the final
quarters the Cowboys intercepted
a pass and drove to the Grizzly
six-yard line where Mike Barrow
threw to wingback Jack Bishop
for the final touchdown. Their try
for the extra point failed.
Ron Boyce and Don Scholar
were outstanding in the backfield
and Don Sorenson played specta
cular game in the line.
