PAGE TWO EUREKA, 13 TOO IN WET CONTEST Bob Watson Scores All Med ford Points Massaro Chills Fans With Passes Medford high's Black Tornado presented Coach Lome Arnold with a fine "going away" pres ent in the form of a 13 to 0 conquest of Eureka here Friday night, with Bob Watson, sopho more halfback, scoring all the points on a couple of beautifully-executed touchdown plays and a placeklck for one extra tally. It was a real "toughle" for the home boys as Fabulous F rankle Massaro, Eureka's rifle armed fullback, pitched poten tial touchdown passes all over the lot despite the slimy oval. He threw 'em short and he flung 'em long, several traveling over 80 yards, and only the in ability of his receivers to hang onto the leather prevented the Californlans from reaching the end rone more than once. Massaro, who tosses like a veteran college star, fired 23 times and completed eight for 81 yards. Medford, playing con servative football, stayed on the ground all evening and tried not a single aerial shot. 2 Scoring Drives The Tornado manufactured two scoring marches, the first DUTCH BOY PAINTS Full Stock YOUNGER'S APPLIANCE SERVICE CO. 31 N.

HESS 34 North Central In the second period for 88 yards and the other a slam-bang 76-yarder that began midway through the third chapter and ended early In the finale. A Eureka fumble was recov ered by the Tigers on the Eure ka 38 to launch the Initial touch down drive and seven plays later Watson went over for the six points. Doug Plumley opened the march with an 11-yard blast through center and added eight more yards in three smashes at the line. Jack Baker, on a quar terback sneak, grabbed five to the Eureka 10, but Steve Dippel lost one trying to go wide around right end. Then, on a sweet reverse, Watson swept wide around left end and crossed the line un- touched. His attempted place kick for the extra point was blocked. Just before the half ended Eureka, with Massaro flinging and Campbell running, moved down to the Medford 24, but on fourth down Dippel intercepted a Massaro pass on his own 13 and returned It to the 27 to halt the threat. In the third period the visi tors went S2 yards, sparked by zz-yard sprint by Massaro. before the Tornado held for downs on its own 24. It was here that Medford started its final scoring drive. Co 76 Yards It took 18 plays to eat up the 78 yards to the Eureka goal line. Watson, Plumley, Nieder- meyer and Dippel took turns lugging the ball, with a 12-yard run by Watson and one of 13 by Dippel featuring the lengthy surge. With the ball on the five-yard stripe, fourth and goal, on the second play of the final period, Watson duplicated his second quarter run by taking the leath er on a reverse and swinging around left end for the touch down. This time he placekicked the extra point for the 13 to 0 score. Before the quarter was ovr.r Eureka made two desperate bids for touchdowns. On the first they got to the Medford 30, but a pass on the goal line was dropped and Medford held for downs. Then, in the waning moments, the California again marched down the field, clear to the six-inch line, where they were located when the final gun barked. It was a thrill-packed contest for the some 1,500 shivering customers. It had long runs, jarring tackles and blocks and, of course, the ever-threatening Massaro, perhaps the greatest passer ever to play in the sta dium, Medford, continuing to show great Improvement, turned in its best all-around game to date. 81 For Dippel Dippel was Medford's best HANDSOME, TOO!

Pennsylvania's Quakers also capitalized on fighting spirit to come from behind and gain a 13 to is tie against Army in the day's co-feature at Philadelphia. A pass by Michaels that hit like lightning out of the drizzling skies was taken 40 yards down field by Odell, who went 30 more for the touchdown that broke the Army's heart.

San Francisco, Oct. 30 (U.B The Fourth Air Force ruers from March Field, cat., siaxea a claim to the Pacific coast serv ice football championship by up setting the St. Mary's Navy ire Flight Air Devils 7-6, In a bit ter, slashing game before 25,000 today. A spectacular 98-yard4 kick off return in the second quar ter; highlighted by two laterals, and Corp. Norberg's conversion from placement, provided the reckless, speedy Filers with their triumph. Cadet Bruce Smith had put Pre Fllght ahead, 8 to 0, on a twist ing 65-yard return of an Air Force kick to set the stage for one of the most spectacular plays seen on the coast this season. -Corp. Jack Jacobs, former All American halfback at Oklahoma, took the ensuing Pre-Flight kick off on his own two-yard line. Lowering his head, he roared down the middle to the Navy 45, where he was hemmed in by three tacklers. He shot a lateral to Pvt. Buckingham, who fought his way to the 25. Buckingham, practically on the ground, later aled out to Sgt. Day of Southern California, the Fliers' quarter back, who raced into the end zone standing up. The final half found each team threatening once as the officials struggled to keep the players from staging a free-for-all on several occasions. The tackling and blocking were rugged and sharp and stars of both elevens reeled to the side lines. Smith, who won unanimous All-American acclaim at Minne sota in 1941, was knocked grog gy on the final play of the first half and was ineffective through out the third and fourth periods. Jacogs was "cooled" twice and Bob Defruiter; Air Force half back from Nebraska, passed out from sheer exhaustion. Just be fore the gun. Conference Klamath Falls ... Medford :. Ashland .
