only three class A-l and A-2
titles undecided throughout
Oregon
Marshfield, the state's top
ranked team in the coaches' poll,
won its annual "civil war" tus
sle with North Bend by a
handy 32-0 count to nail down
the district 5 crown.
Medford came through in an
other backyard battle to defeat
0 Grants Pass 14-7 for the district
title.
The only undecided playoff
spot in the class A-l is in district
8. Albany downed Corvallis

North Salem 21-7 to throw the
race into a three-way tie to be
decided by a vote. Albany, Cor
vallis and South Salem now
have 5-1 district records.
The big' battle in A-2 ranks
last night was in eastern Ore
gon where Vale and Ontario col

beaten going into the fray and
Vale came out on top by the
odd score of 9-8 to capture the
district 7 A-2 title.
Tillamook edged St. Helens
12-7 for the district 1 A-2 crown.

Medford high school.
Coach Frank Roelandt said
that the first week of workouts
likely will be limited to juniors
and seniors wishing to try out
for the team. Sophomore pros

Five lettermen return from
last season's crew which won
second place honors in the state
tournament. But, with such regu
lars as Larry Copple, Frank Rec
tor, Everett Kastner, Glenn
Peterson and Jerry Kalapus
graduated, Roelandt faces a con
siderable rebuilding job.
football Delay
Of the lettermen only three
re expected to report for the
first drills, John Foust, Lloyd
Cearley and Bob TisdeL Dick
McLaughlin is still playing foot
ball and Ed Reinking, who suf
fered a broken ankle in grid
practice, still has the ankle in a
cast.
Several other top cage pros
pects are still with the football
club and will not report to
Roelandt for the hoop sport
until the grid season is over.
The mentor said that, despite
the fact ihese players will be
delayed in their maplecourt
turnout, he hopes that the Black
Tornado "goes all the way in
footDall." He pointed out that
success in the grid game builds
up the school's athletic morale
for the rest of the year. Roe
landt's main aim is to be ready
by January 6 for defense of the
Southern Oregon Conference
crown.

Reports Only 13
Whooping Cranes
Washington The U.S
Fish and Wildlife service, its
fingers crossed, reported Satur
day that only half of the last
surviving flock of whooping
cranes has arrived safely at its
Texas wintering grounds.
A spokesman said the majest
ic whoopers usually reach the
Arkansas Refuge on the Gulf
Coast of Texas by late -October.
But he- pointed out they are
sometimes a little late. A final
count will not be made until
some time in December.
The service's . latest count
shows that 13 whoopers, includ
ing four young, have arrived at
the Texas refuge from their
summer nesting grounds in the
wilds of Canada.
The whoopers, about five feet
tall with a wing spread of sev
en feet, were down to 21 adults
when they came south last year
and when they went north this
spring.
There are conflicting reports
as to whether four, five or six
additional young ones were
sighted by the Canadian Wildlife
service this fall.

Knox Leads
UCLA To Win
Over Pacific
Stockton, Calif. (UP.) Con
troversial Ronnie Knox Saturday
engineered UCLA to a 34-0
victory over College of Pacific
club.
Knox scored one touchdown,
passed for another and set up
a third with a sensational 87
yard kick. Some 26,000 fans sat
in warm, almost summer-like,
weather as UCLA rolled up a
20-0 halftime lead and watched
a hard-fighting COP team fall
apart.
Despite the 20V) halftime score,
COP was in the ball game for
the first 30 minutes. Both UCLA
and COP had seven first downS
in the first half, while COP
had a net yardage of 96 to
UCLA's 97.
The bad breaks which upset
the COP club came in the second
quarter. The big one was a
blooper by Referee Joe Zigna.
Zigna lost the ball on the tricky
ball-handling of COP Quarter
back Junior Reynosa, and
whistled the ball dead at the
line of scrimmage while Reynosa
was completing a 30-yard pass
to the UCLA 36. One the next
play, a much-ired COP team lost
its running spark when ground
eating Halfback Ken Swearingen
went out of the game for the
day with a leg injury. '

amiting Chicago middleweight,
took full advantage of the break
to score an eighth round techni'

Boyd, the Illinois middle

36th win in 44 pro battles, of

"He never hurt me," Boyd

"So I did."

what it was."
Boyd weighed 160Vi for his
victory.
Johnson, who was ruled off at
2:55 of the eighth, said he be
lieved he could beat Boyd on
another chance. "I wouldn't
fight him the same way.. I'd be

and he'd never get to me."
It was Johnson's seventh loss

since his operation.

BEAR VS. CAR
Strawberry Valley, Calif.

driving along a road in Plumas
county when a bear, apparently
frightened by a nearby blasting,
ran blindly at full speed into
the side of her car. The bear
was momentarily stunned by the
impact, but shook itself and
ambled off into the woods. The
side and door of the auto were
wrecked.

The other clubs play today.
The San Francisco Forty-Niners
(3-3) are IV2 point choices
against the Rams (4-2) at L6s An

favorites to whip the Green Bay
Packers (3-3) at. Chicago; the
Browns (5-1) are favored over
the New York Giants (2-4) by
10 points at Cleveland; and the
Philadelphia Eagles (2-3-1) are
seven-point choices against the
Redskins (3-3) at Washington..
Charlie Trippi, the veteran
back who suffered severe head
injuries in an exhibition game
with San Francisco, may make
his first appearance of the sea
son for the Cardinals. He has
been fitted with a special pro
tective mask.
Pittsburgh is in pretty good
physical condition . and has
strengthened its kicking depart
ment by signing little Tad Weed,
place-picking specialist from
Ohio State who sparked the Col

over the Cleveland Browns last
August.
Rams Hit by Injuries
The" Rams will be minus full
back Dan Towler and end Bob
Boyd but Skeet Quinlan, an of
fensive back who has been out
with a knee injury, may be
ready to go against the Forty
Niners. The champion Browns will
play New York with safetyman
Tommy James and rookie line
backer Sam Palumbo on the
sidelines. The' Giants are in
good shape. Cleveland has the
longest current winning streak
in the league, capturing five
straight since dropping its open
er to Washington.
The Bears also are hot. They
dropped their first three games
but defeated Baltimore, San
Francisco and Los Angeles in
their last three starts. The Pack
ers defeated the Bears last
month 24-3, but figure the Chi
cago bruisers will be as tough as
usual on their home field. -
Philadelphia will be out to
avenge a 31-30 loss to Washing

Top Prospect
At Portland
Portland Frank Rector, all
state second team performer
from Medford's high school
basketball team last season, is
a leading candidate among 15
freshman prospects who initiated
basketball practice this week at
the University of Portland.
Rector, 5-foot 11-inch guard
hopeful shows promise according
to Al Negratti, new Portland
coach.
Because members of this sea
son's 15-man squad have indi
vidually compiled glittering prep
records, Negratti hopes for the
strongest first year team in Pilot
history. However, the coach fre
quently stated in pre-season talks
that high school press clippings
won't win games, so he's anxious
to see the team operate under
actual playing conditions.
Other candidates from Ore
gon towns with the Pilot frosh
are: Elmen Bloedel of Milwau
kie, Larry Walsh of Eugene and
Johnnie Westermann of McMinn
ville. Portland city students
turning out are: Dick Jolley and
Harvey Jenes.
Out-of-staters at the Portland
campus are Jim Armstrong, Abe

Ninth Beats
Hornet Club
McLoughlin ran away from a
tiring Hedrick football team in
the fourth quarter to pile up a
34 to 0 victory Friday as ninth
graders of Medford's two junior
high schools wound up their
seasons.
The Bulldogs found it tougher
going against the outmanned
Hedrick eleven for most of three
quarters. Halftime score was 8
to 0 and after three periods the
margin was 15 to 0.
McLoughlin turned breaks
into three of its touchdowns. The
others came on a long run and
drives.
Gerry Lyons ran 30 yards for
the opening score after a drive
had moved the ball from mid
field. The Bulldogs worked down to
the Hedrick three yard line at
the end of the third quarter.
They were penalized back to
the eight and lost the ball on a
fumble on the 12 at the start of
the second period. But the
Hornets fumbled, too, and Lyons
recovery gave McLoughlin the
ball again on the eight. Hedrick
stopped McLoughlin on downs
on the one but two plays later
the Hornets Bill Maurer was
caught in the end zone for a
safety.
Lyons Goes 11
Hedrick lost the ball on downs
on its own 29 in the third quar
ter. In four plays Lyons crossed
the final line from 11 yards out.
