Bob Woods Returns To GP Squad
For Friday Fracas With Bedford
There was evidence today that
the Grants Pass high Cavemen
will be at least near full strength
Friday when they play host to
the Medford Black Tornado grid
ders. Biggest news from the Grants
Pass standpoint is that Bob
Woods, hard-running left half
back, will be ready to go against
the Tornado. Woods suffered a
broken bone in his hand in the
Cavemen's opener with Roose
velt of Portland. He missed the
succeeding two games. This week
the cast was removed, an X-ray
taken and his doctor said he
could play.
His addition to the line-up will
give the Cavemen a one-two
punch potential with which Med
ford will have to contend. The
other man is Fullback Don
Kerns. Stocky Bill Flaming at
right half and Jerry Yosten at
quarterback are expected to
round out the Grants Pass back
field. Both are 140-pounders
while Woods is listed at 168 and
Korns at 176.
There's some doubt about the
starting ends. It's likely that
Mickey Blevins and Sam Dean
will get the call. Blevins, how
ever, has been troubled by a
shoulder ailment and Dean by
cold. Second in line are Don An
derson and Lloyd Zimm.
Probable tackles are Dick
Blevins and Dale Tripp with
220-pound Tom Rosemus replac
ing Tripp on defense. Guards
listed are Jim Lockhart, 190
pounder who did the punting
against Ashland. The center will
be Dale Jackson.
Final preparations were being
made today in the Medford prac
tice field. Coach Fred Spiegel
berg reported the Medford of
fense is looking good but said
that the defense needs work.
Therefore, he scheduled some
defense work this afternoon in
a last effort to get it functioning
properly. He reported the spirit
of the Tornado squad high.
Spiegelberg listed possible of
fensive starters as Dick Pepper
and Joe Antony, ends; Don Mc
Laughlin and Bob Rasmussen,
tackles; Willard Lilly and Bob
Steele guards; Norm Chapman,
MedfordTribune
center; Ed McCullough, quarter
back; Alton Stone, left half; Den
nis Faulkner, right half, and
Lorin Jacobs, fullback.
Eager Transfers
Bijl French may get the de
fensive call over McLoughlin
and Dale Gott over Rasmussen.
Mike DeVore may replace Bob
Steels on defense. Steele has
been bothered by an ankle ail
ment. Paul Eckel, a guard, has
been working as a defensive
tackle, and could see consider
able action, as could Leslie
Walch, linebacker, now in school.
A couple of transfers could see
a lot of defensive duty.' They
are brothers, Fred and Gordon
DeVos from Prescott, Ariz. Gor
don, 160-pound senior, is a guard,
and Fred, 170-pound junior, is a
halfback offensively and line
backer defensively. Spiegellberg
says they are "eager." .
Two Medford athletes, Stone
and Pepper, are. former Grants
Pass athletes.
Listed weights show Grants
Pass slightly heavier in the line
and a shade lighter in the back
field, as averages go.
Junior High Footballers
Slate Opener Here Friday
Medford junior high's foot
ball varsity goes into action Fri
day after three weeks of prac
tice. The Bulldogs will be host
to Grants Pass. Game time is 3
p.m.
The tussle will be on the jun
ior high turf.
Coach Mel Boldenow, who is
being assisted by Bill Shephard,
has listed his squad as green. It
is hoped that size and spirit will
make up for inexperience.
The mentor reported a squad
with boys of good size this year.
In fact, there's better size than
there has been for several years.
And, that boosts the hopes for
the senior high for the next
few years.

Phoenix Phoenix high's Pi

fine record Friday when they op

a JDJ League and A-2 district
scuffle.
Game Time Is 3 p.m.
The Pirates have been beaten
only once in four years on their
home field. This loss was to
Rogue River in 1949. Also, the
Phoenix gang has scored in
every game it has played in the
last three years and has been
held to one touchdown only
twice.
Phoenix this year has a good

Pebble Beach, Calif. (U.R)
Some of the glamor was gone
from the California State Ama
teur Golf Tournament today,
but a lot still remained.
National amateur champion
Cone Littler entered the second
round, as expected; defending
champion Bob Silvestri won his
first round match; ahd former
champion Ernie Pieper, Johnny
Dawson and Neil White also
moved along.
But among the missing was
youthful Ken Ventur, the Wal
ker Cup star, who was dumped
in the first round by Hugh Sill,
a Sunday golfer who just
whacks the ball around for fun.
The winner was even par for the
distance. He won by sinking a
six-foot putt on the 18th for a
par, while venturi missed an
eight-footer for a bogey.
The other favorite among the
big field of 360 that originally
tried to qualify for the title
flight, Dick Yost, the Pacific
Northwest champion, advanced
with an easy victory over Styl
Stimac of Martinez, Calif.
There were only 16 left of the
original field. They play one 18

two men for the 36 hole final

King, Carrigan Hurt
Sickness has hampered the
Pirates this week. Back Willie
Garner has a leg injury and will
be able to play a little on de
fense if at all.
At Central Point Crater Coach
Leonard Warren reported two of
his brightest backfield stars side
lined. They are Fullback Gordon
Carrigan with a ruptured blood
vessel in his leg and Right Half
Bob King with a badly bruised
shoulder. End Kay Kelley was
to do the Crater punting in
King's place but had his foot
hurt in practice last night. War
ren is counting upon his line to
carry a heavy part of the load.
Probable starting Crater back
field is Harvey Tonn, quarter
back; Vera Parent, left half;
Jack Lilly, sophomore, right
half, and Dick Walker, junior
playing his first football at full
back Larry Bigham, inexperienc
ed senior, will be called to fill
in at any of the positions.
The line probably will be Bob
Gray and Marv Bohnert, ends;
Dick Harnes and Howard Mor
ris, tackles; Jim Welch and
Adrian Van Horn, guards, and
Peto Thompson, center.
Back Quits
Lilly will see his first defen
sive work at halfback. Mason is
expected to replace Tonn on de
fense to back the line. Bigham is
the probable safety.
Crater lost another back when
Bob Hill quit football to work.
Phoenix's likely offensive
eleven will be Barry Bohm and
Don Blankenship, ends; Otis
Blankenship and Allen Cotton,
tackles; Dan Goin and Freeman
Beck, guards; Roger Puhl, cen
ter; Dick Caster, quarterback;
Jim Holt, left half;' Delmar
Brood, right half, and Alfred
Griffith, fullback. Brood was
placed at wingback and Holt to
