The lone Grants Psss tails came the third quarter when the visitors mustered enough punch to run two first downs In a row out of only three made all afternoon. The touch. down, bucked over from the two- yard line by Prultt, came against the Tiger reserves, with the Medford team leading, 31-0. The pronounced Medford superior ity came as a surprise to t'-.e estlmat ed 3,300 fans who packed the grand stand and bleachers. Pro-game In formation was that the Cavemen had powerful running attack and dazzling aerial bombardment that waa expected to give the Tigers terrltio race. Instead, with the game only three minutes old, Grants Pass fumbled and Baker recovered on the Grants Pass 38. Sakralda made two yards buck and a five-yard penalty for offside put the ball back on the from where Ettlnger romp! around end on a double reverse to score standing up. Four minutes later Grants Pass again fumbled and Baker again recovered on the 80. Ettlnger and Olson bucked the b'a: to the 8, from where Ettlnger slant. over left tackla to senro again atandlng up. Both tries for point were missed. Near the end of the fltst quarts: the Tigers held the ball on their own 38. Olsen, on a cut-back, smashed ovor tackle and with Of r old shearing two defenders out of the play, raced 73 yards to score. His pass to Wilson for the extra point was no good. That was about the way. the gamt went while the first team remained on the tleld. Coach Bill Bowerman ran In his second team anortly after the start of the second quarter after Olson's 30-yard pass to Wilson was completed In the end zone tor the third Medford score of the game. The pass was a - sensational one, Wilson leaping high Into the air to take It over his shoulder. The beautiful catch acted as a counter-irritant to the two that Wilson had let drop earlier In the game. Shortly after the start ot the half. with the first tesm bsck In the gsme, Ettlnger, Olsen, Sakralda and Maru- yama carried he ball to the seven. yard lino from where Ettlncer whirl- over for a touchdown around loft end. Sakralda bucked the only con. version for Medford In the game. The second toam took the field again in tne third quarter and battled tho Cavemen on even torma, frequently breaking Campbell and Baylies away ror long gains. They lacd the sua tained drive to score against the vastly heavier visitors. Oranta Pass outweighed even the Medford first team by 10 pounds to the men. Ths game waa a Roman holiday for Baker, Offord and Stocka in the Med ford line. The usually unsung line men cut and slashed the Caveman forward wall to ribbons, leaving gab Ing holes for the fast. stepping backs slash through. On defense thoy were almost Impregnable, holding the vlaltora to 15 yarda gained from scrimmage In the first hall, and 14 from scrimmage In the second half The vaunted Caveman crushing at tack was stopped cold by both the first and second teams. The combination first and second teama rolled up the truly impressive total of 363 yards from t.crlmmage with a total of 17 firat downs. The Tigers attempted 13 forward passes and comploted four for a total of 33 -yards. Orante Pasa attempted eight paases and completod two, fo- gain of 36 yards.
