STfD'AT,' OCTOBER 3, 1937" PASS ATTACK OF FROM TIGERS 14-13 A fighting Hood River high school football machine that refused to be beaten came from behind twice Frl 'day night to defeat Medford high acbpol'5 Black Tornado, 14-18 In the .first night game here In history, j Over 1200 spectators, packing the 'grandstand and bleachera to aee the tlwt . major battle of the year, wit nessed the blue-anlrted Appleplckera of Coach Jimmy Carr open up with a b'.miant passing attack In the aee--ond' half to acore two touchdowns -and convert the extra point after ach. Stopped dead on the ground by a tough Medford line. Hood River went upstairs. And, the Tigers had no answer for the amazing barrage of 'forward passes aa slung by Captain Bobby Dethman, a 198-pound bundle of quarterbncklng dynamite. With Dethman on the throwing 'end, Hood River heaved 19 passes, all In the hectic second half, and com pleted 10 of thorn. Two were Inter cepted, and two went for touchdowns The Tigers tried als aerials, with five of tbem being Incomplete and one intercepted. Bo superior were the Tigers In the first half that Hood River was un able to get past their own 40 yard line. They were held to a meagre 30 yards from scrimmage while the Tigers were pounding au over mo neia, roll ing up 176 yards "and one touchdown. - Coach Bill Bowerman'a club march ed to lta first touchdown early In the Initial period, the second time they, got their hands on, the ball, In fact. Ettlnger, catching a punt on 'the SO-yard line, came back IS to the 85 And the Tornado was on ita way Ettlnger went to the 25 on a delayed half-splnner, Grow got four on a re verse, and then Hill swept wide around hla own loft end with great blocking to the Hood River two-yard line. On a half-splnner, Ettlnger scored standing up through the cen ' ter of the lino. The little quarter ' cock converted with a place kick and ' It was 7-0. 1 Three more times In that first half, "Medford knocked at the door, but ,' each time they were denied. Midway '. through tho second period. Hill broke '. loose around right end for 31 yards lta place the ball on the Hood River "eight-yard line, but four tries at the line failed by a acant foot to reach coring ground, Hdon Orow packing each time. Dethman started firing forwards as ' the third quarter opened, and Just before the stanza ended, Hood River had lta tying touchdown. Starting ; on their, own 25-yard line, the Apple- pickers moved steadily down the field, With Dethman rnnning the ends and passing the Tigers dizzy. A 35-yard 'shot to halfback Dick Bontley put the ball on Mcdford'a 85. After several more short tosses and substantial gains through the line as Medford was spreading out to halt the ovei head, the Hood River outfit crossed up the Tigers and Bentley. Instead of Dothman, lined on 18-yard pass to end, Samuel, on the five yard line, and the receiver stepped across the goal line. Hill, Medford halfback, ap parently had Samuel covered, but the Appleplckor reached up and snagged the toss, dodged Hill, and scored. Dethman converted with a place kick, and the ball game waa knotted, T-7. The fourth quarter was not one minute old before Medford had again taken the lead. After three plays fol lowing the klckoff, Ettlnger, starting from the 50-yard line, swung wide around hla own right end, cut back behind perfect Interference, and raced the entire distance to the goal line. He literally outran the entire Hood River secondary .to score standing up. Hla attempted place-kick for the ex tra point was low and wide, and the core was 13-7. Shooting the works, Dethman of Hood River started his one-man aerial i how for the ball again. Alter Hill had quick-kicked to the Hood River SO, the barrage waa unloosed. Straight down the mlddlo Dethman shot them, first to Bentley for 18 yards, then to Bentley again for 5. and again to i the same guy for eight more. Deth man gained 10 at left tackle and then 1 went eight olt right tackle to the Medford 13 yard stripe. I With only about two minutes to play, It was fourth down and nine yards to go on the Medford 10. There waa no secret as to Hood River's last- . chance maneuver, but the Timers were . taken In. Dethman faded back and . tossed the payoff forward pass to Bentley standing square In the mid- . die of the left side end cone There ' was not a Medlord player within 10 yards of Bentley aa he drattged the i ball to his chest for the touchdown. Then, with the old football game ' hanging fire, with tho score tied 19- I 13, Dethman coolly booted the pig akin high, wide and handsome through the uprights for the point I that gave his team the victory. ' Only a few (seconds remained as ill. C" .ir . . ,..! - . a.. It w- "'T..i.o n""a w ntRl . TAnR IlllllllllllllllUilll Hlllllllllli 1 Medford received the klckoff and started heavlrg long passes. Four of them by Shorty Campbell missed their mark and Hood River, taking the ball on downs, stalled through three slow line-plays to end things. Dethman, by far, was the beat ball player on the field, and Bentley was not far behind. The entire Medford backfleld looked good on offense but folded completely on pass-defense. Root, end, and Santo and Earhart tackles, also played good games for the Tigers, The Tigers produced 13 first downs to Hood River' 10. All Medford's came irom running playa while six of Hood River's were made through the air. The Tlgera were complete master of the situation In the first half, mak ing nine first downs to none for the winners.
