Tornado Seen As Tough
Foe By Klamath Writer
(From Klamath Falls Herald
and News)
By Malcolm Epley
There are four high school
teams In the Southern Oregon
conference. We have seen three
of them Klamath Falls, Ash
land and Grants Pass in action,
and of course we've heard plenty
about Medford. We'll hazard the
opinion that this is as tough a
circuit as there is in the state,
which is in keeping with the rec
ord over the years. All of them
have been showing up mighty
well in early-season games
against competition outside the
conference.
Of the four conference teams,
Medford alone has not yet met
an opponent in the family. Its
first conference squabble comes
Friday nigh, against Klamath
Falls. Klamath has won one and
lost one beating Ashland and
losing by a squeak to Grants
Pass. Ashland has lost one, and
Grants Pass has won one. From
here on out, these four teams
will be engaging in some tough
intra-conference struggles.
Build-Up
One of the toughest, of course,
will come Friday night, when
the Medford team Tigers,
Black Tornado or Pearpickers,
as you like will meet Klamath
on Modoc field here.
At no time in our memory
has a prep team entered the con
ference season with such a ter
rific build-up as Medford has
had this season. Just about
everything possible has been
done to frighten the wits out
of prospective opponents. Billie
Hulen, a former Medford sports
writer who wields a mean fore
finger on the typewriter, is
writing prep football for the
Oregonian, and Billie, unques
tionably with complete sincerity
and honesty, has been leading
the ballyhoo parade for .the old
home team.
Meanwhile, the .Medford team
has been doing plenty to justify
the outcry. It has defeated Eu
gene 52-7, Marshfield 40-0, Al
bany 68-0, and Eureka 38-0.
No Comparisons
It happens, however, that
there have been no games which
afford a scoring comparison be
tween Medford and Klamath
Falls. They have played no com
mon opponents thus far. There

isn't an indirect comparison
available that means much.
How tough have been the op
ponents which Medford crushed
so decisively? Our only answer
to that one is in the scores of
their other games. We do not
have the Eureka record, but
here is the season scoring so far
for the Oregon opponents of
Medford:
Eugene?
26, University Hi 0: 24,
Springfield 0; 7, Medford f2;
7. Albany 0.
Marshfield
0, Reedsport 13; 0, Medford
40; 0, Grants Pass 20; 0, Myrtle
Point 13.
Albany
0, Medford 68; 9. North Bend
27: 7, Salem 14; 0, Eugene 7.
Some years ago, Klamath had
a terrific early-season scoring
record. Billie Hulen, then writ
ing for the Medford Mail Trib
une, remarked that Klamath had
done a lot of scoring, but that
lt nnnnnents weren't too hot
that anybody could make touch
downs through a paper Dag. s
we recall, the Klamath-Meriford
game thereafter turned out a
scoreless tie.
No Belittling
We do not intend here to at
tempt to belittle the Medford
record and prospects. They
speak for themselves, and they
are most impressive. .
But it is just as well to point
out that the Black Tornado, Tig
ers and Pearpickers are mere
humans, just in case the build
up may have produced some
other ideas hereabouts. It would
be foolish to intimate to the
Klamath Pelicans that they are
not up against a most formidable
opposition. They are. But there
have been many occasions when
the mighty have been upset in
football, and it can happen
again. It's a cinch it will be
worth anybody's time watching
the Pelicans work at it Friday
night.

Hirsch, the famous "crazylegs
of Wisconsin's 1942 football
team, today was in the middle of
a raging battle between univer

professional football team.
The sore spot was whether
Hirsch had signed a contract to
play professional football, there
by ending his eligibility at Wis
consin.
John L. Keeshin, owner of the
Chicago franchise in the new
All-America football conference,
flatly maintains that Hirsch, now
a marine lieutenant, has signed
to play with his team upon dis
charge from the service.

Past and future projects of
the Medford Girl Scout council,
recently reviewed for the infor
mation of the Community Chest
board, told of the enlarged at
tendance at both day camp and
established camp this summer,
the need for a Girl Scout forest
camp since the Boy Scout camp
rental plan no longer fills the
need and outlined some of (he
more interesting projects of the
local troops.
The report states that there
are now eight Brownie troops,
for girls 7 to 10 years of age;
five junior high troops, two sen
ior high troops, 11 intermediate
troops, three mixed, intermedi
ate and senior, in rural schools,
and five groups in the process
of organization. For each troop,
which must not number less
than eight girls, there are two
leaders and three committee
members, all adults.
In the supervisory groups
there are 18 council members,
10 committee members on the
council, 78 leaders and 103 com
mittee members for troops.
Aid Park Plans
One of the interesting projects
underway is one which would
permit Scouts to work with the
city park commission in plan
ning certain sections of the new
city park. This summer girls
from some troops, under the
guidance of forest service offic
ials, selected shrubs and trees
which later will bst transplanted
into a section of the park to be
known as the native Oregon cor
ner. Girl Scouts are also col
lecting home-grown seeds, veg
etables especially, to be sent to
girls in foreign countries to aid
post-war planting, n
Scouts also are trained In
child-caring and In each school
of the city care for pro-school
children during meetings of the
Parent-Teacher association. Last
February an open round table
discussion was sponsored by the
Girl Scout council where senior
high school students presented
current world problems.
Special emphasis is being
placed this year on the orga
