BLACK TORNADO, GRIZZLIES SCRAP
Oil MEDFORD FIELD THIS EVENING
A "pretty well pepped up"
Ashland high school football ag
gregation will trot, out on the
Medford stadium turf tonight
seeking its first victory over the
Black Tornado since 1947.
The combat will find Med
ford's Tornado, heavily favored,
fighting to keep in the run
ning for District 6 A-l and
Southern Oregon Conference
championship stakes and Ash
land, an A-2 contestant in pre
vious seasons, still seeking its
first triumph in Oregon A-l com
petition. While Medford and Ashland
are busy. Grants Pass and Kla
math Falls will have a big dis
trict showdown at Grants Pass.
First of the week found the
Grizzlies working to shake off
the bumps and bruises and hu
miliation of successive losses to
Grants Pass and Crater. Cold
wet weather hasn't helped but
light, rather0 than heavy, work
has helped the Ashlanders re
cuperate. Coach Al Simpson
said last night, "The boys were
pretty well pepped up tonight.
I think they'll be all right."
Seek Redemption
A few words by Speed Pres
cott in his "Press Box" column
: in the Ashland Daily Tidings
could provide the key to Ash
land attitude when the Grizzlies
appear for the 8 p.m. kick-off.
Prescott remarked thsi week:
"The last several years, the Griz
zlies haven't put up too much
opposition, and if the Grizzlies
are going to redeem themselves
after last week, it will just
about have to be this week end
or next, when they move over to
Klamath ..."
The sports scribe and .press
man points to the big task fac
ing the Ashlanders tonight but
he gives the Grizzlies a chance.
"As long as the Tornado uses
only 11 men at any given
momement, and as , long as
(Coach Al) Simpson has 11 stout
hearted stalwarts to throw into
the fray, there remains the pos
sibility of almost anything.
We'v seen some mighty strange
and weird happenings occur
ttider the guise of a Medford
Ashland football scrap'."
Tornado Serious .
From the Tornado squad,
however, comes the report that
the Medfordites ar taking the
game seriously despite their
favored status0 and thoughts of
the fourthcoming Grants Pass
battle. "I think they're pretty
serious about it," Coach Fred
Spiegelberg said this morning.
Medford lias had the harder
workouts this week. Intensity of
the practices should have proved
sufficient to keep in mind the
business immediately at hand.
The Tornado did get one fine
break from their routine last
night as guests of Bob Corbin,
Medford theater manager, at the
Craterian theater.
Riley Okeh
Spiegelberg said today also
that Halfback Gary Riley has
been declared okeh to play,
Riley work, nevertheless, could
be limited. He was shaken upN in
the Eureka mix. Ashland has its
injured too, Backs Gene Parent
and Dave Athanas with rib in
juries and Lineman Malcolm
Magruder with a cut around his
eye. But all are expected to see
service. .
Medford tonight will be out to
boost its winning record against
Ashland competition. In 56 out
ings since 1910, Medford has
won 37 and Ashland 16. There
have been three ties.
The battle could turn into a
wide open affair, particularly if
the Grizzlies should take to the
air from their T formation.
When Lance Locke cocks his
throwing - arm, Tornado players
will have their eyes particularly
on Backs Gene Parent and Har
ry Johnson. Medford can apply
an aerial threat itself but is
likely utilize mostly its single
wing power and T explosiveness
on the ground.
