(international) Fanfare By DICK JEWETT Mail frihiae Sport Edttot Two prep football district champions in a single year, Med ford high in A-l and St. Mary's in B, is something new for this community and are achieve ments local .fans can point, to with considerable pride as. the grid fortunes of both schools have taken an upturn. And Med- fordites can still take pride no matter what the fortunes of the two teams are in state play-offs, GIRD FOR PLAY-OFF It's a matter of molding tighter defense for the Med ford high Black Tornado this week as it preps for the Marsh . field high Pirates and a mat : ter of recovering from ' the worst physical beating of the season for St. Mary's as the Crusaders get ready for Moro I in state quarter-finals. . ', Coach Ed Hummel of the Crusaders reported thai St. Mary's, with its usual iron man performance, only more 5 so, took a considerable bruis ing in the Saturday 27 to 19 verdict over Chiloquin at Mer ' rill on Saturday. The Panthers bit hard but played clean. . Back Laval, Meunier with banged up knee was the worst casualty. Only 12 play ers saw a great deal of action for the Crusaders and just 13 altogether." Chiloquin ion the ether hand kept running play ers in and out, from a squad of 40. Victory is a tribute to St. Mary's conditioning. Short handed and playing at high altitude the Crusaders still had enough left in the final quarter to get a clincher touchdown,' PENALTIES HURT St. Mary's trailed statistically at the end of the first half and came back to gain yardage, edge in the second. Two St. Mary's touchdown jaunts and one other long run were called back -because of penalties. A total of 98 yards were stepped off against St. Mary's and only 10 against Second Steamboat Coming Back To life Port Kent, N.

" Chiloquin. . - Marshfield's close A squeak against North Bend is evidence that Medford's Black Tornado has a good chance in the state quarter-final her next Fri day despite its previous 6 to 28 setback at the hands of the Golden Pirates. North Bend outgained Marshfield 320 yards to 153 and had 15 first downs to th Pirates four. Medford defense, not up to par in the last three games, is certain to get plenty of atten tion this week in the prepara tions for th playoff. And there's confidence that the Tornado defenders with state honors at stake will pull to gether and rise to the occasion as they did so often earlier in th season. BASKETBALL CLOSE Basketball season is "closer than you think" and as yet we have not heard of any action on the part of the Medford Inde pendent League to organize for the coming season.
