Tornado struck sharply for three touchdowns in the first quarter, eased off in the second and then roared back for one score in the third period and two more In the final heat to crush the Grant Fa Cavemen, 38 to 0, in a Southern Oregon conference game at Grants Pans Friday night played before over 8,000 spectators. The victory was Medford's third In a "row without a setback and launched the Tipera' defense of their conference chHinplotvhlp in spectac ular style. Big John Saulsberry, ISO-pound senior fullback playing the entire ; game, led the high-powered Tornado attack that ripped Grants Pass de fense to shreds. He hammered over two touchdowns and two extra points and in 31 carries of the leather he ripped off 104 yards, an average of 4.9 yards every time he went into action. Left Halfback Bob Newland also tallied two touchdowns, one on a blazing 65-yard return of a Grants Pass punt and the other on a 12-yard gallop off left tackle. Billy Plche accounted for one touchdown, on a two-yard buck over the Cavemen right tackle, and Cato Wray, sopho more left halfback, manufactured the final Medford tally on a six-yard weep around his own right end. While the Black Tornado's bril liant ground and aerial attack was operating to near perfection, the Tiger defense was getting in its own licks In amazing fashion. So tough was the Medford forward wall on de fense that Grants Pass was able to accumulate only 18 net yards on land and 10 yards through the air. In the first half tho Cavemen didn't get outside their own 30-yard line, and only once In the last half were they able to penetrate into Tiger territory. The Tornado's stream of touch downs started with the opening kick off, received by Medford. and in eight plays the locals moved 58 yards to cross the goal line. A series of off tackle sweeps, featuring Plche 'a 17 yard canter and Newlanda 13-yard run. to the one foot line, . set the tago for Saulsberry to crack center for the score. Medford was offside on the extra point attempt. Less than two minutes later the Tigers tallied again. Grants Pass, re ceiving the kickoff. was forced to punt from its own 10-yard stripe. Pruess booted a long one which New land took on his own 45-yard line and lugged the 66 yards to the goal atripe. It was a fine piece of broken field running and the blocking was excellent. Saulsberry hammered cen ter for the extra point. The fast-charging Medford line was indirectly responsible for the third touchdown, still in the first period. A swarm of red-Jerseyed Tigers broke through to block an attempted Grants Pass pass on the latters" 38 yard line, and the ball was recovered by Medford. From that point It took the Tornado Just six playa to once more thunder Into the end ne. Saulsberry and Plche picked up 16 yards, then Newland broke off his own left tackle for 13 yards and a touchdown. Saulsberry's attempted conversion via a line smash was no good, and the first quarter ended 19 to 0. With second and third stringers carrying the Medford burden in the second quarter the Tigers failed to score, although they put' together a march of 50 yards, only to lose the ball on downs on the Grants Pass 14-yard string. The Cavemen were also unable to do anything against the stiff Red and Black de fense. With the regular backfleld back in the game at the start of the sec ond half, the Tigers quickly raced to their fourth touchdown. Louie Thurman returned the kickoff to his own 43-yard line and the Tigers strung together four consecutive first downs to wind up In the end zone. Saulsberry.

With Motordom s youngest sensa tion the new Champion for lfl40 already preening In western show rooms or rolling the roads with plan ar smoothness, the public Is hailing Studebaker's latest addition to the low-price field as a worthy successor to its brilliant predecessor, the Champion Introduced last April. Such is the assertion of B. L. "Sandy" Sanderson, at whose stude baker headquarters here, 207 So. Riv erside, the 1940 Champions are being displayed for the first time. The Champion, youngest member of the Studebaker Hue of cars and a newcomer to the Industry last spring, Is a gleaming, streamlined product from the drawing board of Raymond Loewy and the hands of Studebaker craftsmen.

Grants Pass fullback, ran the ball 50 yards to the Medford 31-yard line. This was the only time Grants Pass was In Medford territory, but New land Immediately Intercepted a Cave man pass and the spectacular kick-off-return went for naught. A poor Grants Pass punt that trav eled only 35 yards set the Tigers up for their fifth touchdown In the fourth heat. The ball sailed to the Caveman 37 and the second-string Tornado backfleld swung Into action. Bob Stead, sophomore right halfback, went 13 yards on a reverse. Sauls berry hit center for 13 more and Wray ripped off nine In two tries. Wray then skirted the Grants Paw left end for a touchdown, but a fumble by Schuchard spoiled the extra point. The final Tiger score resulted after a Grants Pass fumble on Its own 49, recovered by Medford- Stead wheeled around his own left end for 33 yards, Saulsberry got 16 in three tries at the center, then Wray fired ROGUE Service Dept. 32 North Riverside A SIYWIL ,M 5 NEW CAR ) ( rvlmder car. free from excess weight, full of liveliness that characterised Its predecessor and the economical operation that made its predecessor famous.

The entire Tiger squad turned in excellent exhibitions, with Dale How ard, BUI Clute and Al Barrow In the line being outstanding.
