Tornado Outruns Comets
41-19; Pirates Foe Friday
Medford's Black Tornado had
its rejuvenated offense to thank
and its faltering defense to
strengthen today as it reviewed
a 41 to 19 revenge triumph over
the scrapping, plucky Crater
high Comets of Central Point
and looked ahead to state quarter
final action and a "second
chance" against the potent Gold
en Pirates of Marshfield.
The regular season was behind
for the Black Tornado after its
Friday skirmish with the Comets.
Medfordites looked back on a
record of seven victories and two
defeats. Ahead are the state A-l
titular play-offs and the Tornado,
previous loser 28 to 6 to the
Pirates, encounters Marshfield
again here next Friday night.
It will be the first round in elim
inations for a crown Medford
has not worn since 1944.
Offense took the limelight and
the leaking, sagging defenses of
both clubs definitely a back seat

Medford-Marshfield high foot

Medford high office.
in the free scoring Tornado
Comet ruckus and the Medford
victory, despite the score didn't
come entirely easy. Medford had
to come from behind to take
command. The determined
Comets got the first touchdown.
Threat Enough
After the Tornado finally put
its offensive show on the road
there wasn't much doubt about
who'd win. But the Crater at
tack was threat enough that
Tornado regulars were used most
of the way. The Comets scored
all three touchdowns against the
regs.
First quarter of the conflict
ended with the count at 7-all.
Medford struck twice in the
second panel for a 21 to 7 half
time spread. The gap was ex
tended to 34 to 7 in the third
stanza. Crater, which had prom
ised some surprises for the Tor
nado, came up with an attack
utilizing spread formations to
get two touchdowns in the fourth
quarter to cut the margin to 34
to 19.
Medford fumbles on kick-offs
led directly to two Crater TD's.
The Tornado capitalized on a
Comet muff and an intercepted
pass for scores.
Rocky Stone ran 74 and five
yards for Medford goals, threw
a pass to Ed McCullough and
caugnt one from him for others,
Lorin Jacobs and Mike Hawkins
each crossed the goal once. Vern
Parent, Harvey Tonn and Jack
Lilly tallied for Crater.
Tornado Nets 394
The Tornado rolled up a net
of 394 yards, 118 on passes and
had 13 first downs. Crater netted
240 from scrimmage with 73
from . aerials. It got 15 first
downs. Medford completed nine
of 16 passes and intercepted
three Comet heaves. The Comets
made good on five' of 14 attempts
through the air.
Crater made it look like the
beginning of a rough evening
for Medford by recovering a
fumble on the opening kick-off
and grinding out a touchdown.
Lyle Yocom kicked off for
Crater to Medford's Stone, who
was stopped by Carl Koellner
and Bob Gray. The ball popped
from Stone's arm and Nathan
Douthit fell on it for Crater.
Twelve plays later Parent went
the last four yards and then he
packed over the conversion for
a 7 to 0 Crater bulge.
Medford, however, wasted no
time in pulling even, going 66
yards in nine plays after the
second Comet kick-off to tally.
Hawkins went over the right
side of the line for the final two
yards. Jacobs kicked his first
of five conversions and the count
was 7 apiece. Biggest gains on
the drive were 13 yards on a
Keeper by McCullough. 21 on a
blast over guard by Jacobs and
10 on a run over the left side
by stone. -Peterson
Recovers
The Tornado got its ohance to
go ahead three plays after the
next kick-off. Dave Peterson of
jueaiord grabbed Don Govette's
fumble on the Crater 36 yard
line. Jacobs gained two. Mc
Cullough passed to Gordon De
Armond for 12 yards to the
Crater 22 and Stone slashed 10
yards -off tackle to the 12. On
the first play of the second
quarter, McCullough threw to
Stone, wide open in the left flat
and Stone had an easy job to
the end zone. Jacobs booted the
bonus for a 14 to 7 advantage.
The Comets came back with a
big scoring threat after a six
yard punt by Jacobs, who had
angled for the sideline, gave the
Central Point school the ball on
its own 31. In 12 plays Crater
got to the Medford 10 and lost
the ball on downs.
Taking over at that spot, the
Tornado moved 90 yards in eight
plays to gain, a 21 to 7 margin
just before the half. Actually
the Medfordites had to go 95
yards for a motion penalty cost
them five. Big gains along the
way were a 21 -yard run by
Jacobs, a pass, Stone to McCul
lough for 16, and a heave, Mc
Cullough to Stone for 24.
Pay Off Pass
The pay-off was another pass,
Stone to McCullough who was
all by himself in the left flat.
The play was good for 21 yards
and McCullough craftily out
maneuvered one Crater tackier
before stepping into the end
zone. Jacobs added another
extra.
Crater after receiving, moved
from its own 34 to the Medford
26 where it lost the ball on
downs. The big push only set
the stage for another Medford
TD. For on the first Tornado
scrimmage play of the second
half, Stone got a fine hole in the
line, broke through the second
ary cleverly and rambled 74
yards to the goal. Jacobs toed
his fourth straight conversion
for a 28 to 7 spread.
Just a few plays later the
Tornado was handed another op
portunity. Jack Gregory of Med
ford snared a pass by Crater's
Harvey Tonn and the host school
took over on the Comet 22.
Jacobs cracked to the 18, Haw
kins 15 yards to the three and
Jacobs went over from there.
The conversion boot by Jacobs
was wide to the right. Medford
was on top 34 to 7.
Tonn Sneaks Over
The Comets took the ball on
the kick-off on their own 26 in
the closing portion of the third
quarter and 11 plays later in
the fourth quarter had its second
TD of the evening. Dick Walker
to Fred Hogue pass got 25 and
Tonn got 13 on a keeper. Tonn
sneaked the last two yards and
the buck to convert was short. '
A fumble on the Crater kick
off to Medford gave the Comets
the ball for their last TD point.
Mel Harsh fell on the ball on
the Medford 24. Walker got four
yards on a spread play and the
Comets reached the four on a
pass-lateral play, Tonn to Lilly
to Walker. Then Walker made
three to the 1-yard line. He was
held for no gain but Tonn
sneaked a bit closer and on the
next play Lilly punched over.
The Tornado took over on its
40 after the kick-off and in eight
plays had the last touchdown
of the evening. Stone fought 21
yards to the Crater 39 but clip
ping set Medford back to its own
47. John Bellack's pass to Dick
McLaughlin produced 13 yards
to the 34 and Jacobs rammed to
the 22. Four more line smashes
got to the five and Stone slashed
over left tackle to the goal from
there. Jacobs booted his fifth
extra point.
