TORNADO SENIORS LISTED In past seasons we've always mentioned the seniors on the Medford high football squad just before their final home game of the season. We didn't get it done this year.

BASDST0WN, K&JtTUCKY, KELSON COUNTY II - By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribune Sports Editor missed but better than half of this year's varsity squad is ex pected back, including around 10 varsity regulars. On these re turnees rests the hopes, and they are high, for a third consecutive district championship. Coach Fred Spiegelberg has not yet an nounced his list of lettermen but the number of two-year mon ogram wearers slated to be back for the 1956 season will be con siderably larger than for at least the past couple of seasons. CAN BE PROUD Despite the disappointment of losing to Marshfield in the state quarter-finals after giv ing a real and tremendous try against the Pirates in cold, wet and muddy Coos Bay, the Black Tornado can look back on its season with real pride. The only two losses of the Medfordites were to the teams which ranked No. 1 and No. 2 in the state in polls at the end of the regular season Marshfield and Gresham, re spectively. One of the two clubs Medford tied in its six win, I'tfro-tie and two-loss cam paign was Milwaukie, club which last week lost only 6 to 7 to Gresham, which had trimmed Medford by two touchdowns. It was a fine year for Medford. CONTINUED IMPROVEMENT Significant about the Black Tornado in the 1955 grid chase was its continued improvement through the season. It was a sea son made to order for such im provement and brought the de sired result. Five non-counting games were played in order be fore district play began. Those served to prime the Medford eleven for the counting action and also made the season end the actual climax of the year. FROM FALL TO WINTER Traveling to Coos Bay for the Medford-Marshfield foot ball contest last week end and returning was like going over in the fall and coming back in the winter, all in two days time. Last Friday was stormy but the bright colors of fall were siill apparent along the highway. A blanket of white covered almost everything in the coast area and north of Sexton mountain on Saturday. WEATHER WAS BRRRRR ' We've seen football games when the weather has been cold er, when it's been wetter and when it's been windier but can't recall seeing a grid fray when the combination of all three con ditions was worse than at Coos Bay last Friday. We still shiver to think about it. The seats were fine and the view was great, but the weather was brrrrrr.'Fellows in the press box on the opposite side of the field were pretty well protected until their door blew off. We didn't have a door to blow off. Real tribute should go to the young men who soaked themselves in the wet and mud on the playing field. BLOCKING TERRIFIC Pirate blocking must , be given a lot of the credit for Marshfield football success this fall. It's terrific. One Tor nado player remarked that he'd be 50 yards out of a play and still some Buccaneer .would mow him down. MORRIS MENTIONED Howard Morris, sophomore Linfield guard, was listed among Little Ail-American prospects thisweek and was tabbed among the "futures." Morris was a star lineman and Shrine game par ticipant from Crater high at Central Point. His home is now in Medford. WALLACE ALL-STAR Name of one Eagle Point player was inadvertently left out of the Sunday story on the Rogue League football all star selections. The player was Dick Wallace, who was named a tackle on the second team. Bright Steelhead Move Up River Portland !U.R) The weekly report on fishing conditions pre pared by the State Game Com mission: SOUTHWEST: Silvers and jack salmon being taken in Ten mile lakes. An occasional steel head is now being picked up on the south and north forks of the Coquille river and on the west fork of the Millicoma river. Angling . slow in south coastal streams. A few bright steelhead moved up onto the Galice and Robert son bridge area of the Rogue ri ver just prior to the cold spell, but few fish were taken before water temperatures dropped. Angling is very slow through out, the upper Umpqua river area. Dead line Sunflav Classified is at Monday; other days 5:38 previous day. 1 FOR FAST ONES Mil waukee Braves shortstop Johnny Logan smiles at the specially designed baseball pants with net sewn between the legs. Pant were pre sented to him by a Milwaukee TV station to help him stop hot grounders that might otherwise go for base hits. Rote Credits Conerly for Pass Feats By EARL WRIGHT United Press Sports Writer Kyle Rote, a modest Texan who first gained- football fame at Southern Methodist, claims his pass-catching feats for the New York Giants this year are based on Charlie Conerly's throwing ability. Rote has made catches off his shoe strings. He has twisted and caught balls thrown behind him. He set up a touchdown last Sun day by grabbing a pass while Jesse Thomas of the Baltimore Colts virtually was riding him "piggy-back." But the 27-year-old San An tonio blond says Conerly is main ly responsible for 22 catches that have gained 452 yards, betr ter than 20 yards per catch, and five touchdowns. "When I go out and make my fake, he , seems to know where I'm going and puts the ball right there," Rote said. Halfback at SMU .Rote first made a football rep utation playing halfback for SMU but the Giants have few good offensive ends this season and Rote frequently has been asked to play that unfamiliar position. Rote's catching ability will be one of New York's chief offen sive threats against the Phila delphia Eagles at the Polo Grounds in one of Sunday's six National Football League games. The Giants (3-5) are picked to de feat the Eagles (3-4-1). The other selections with won-lost-tied records in parentheses: Lions (2-6) over Chicago Bears (5-3) at Detroit; Los Angeles Rams (5-3) over Colts (4-4) at Baltimore; Green Bay Packers (4-4) over San Francisco Forty Niners (3-5) at Green Bay; Browns (6-2) over Pittsburgh Steelers (4-4) at Cleveland; Card inals (3-4-1) over Washington Redskins (5-3) at Chicago. Taylor Tops e Shoot The worst of the storms for November didn't dampen the en thusiasm of rifle shooters Wednesday and a lively evening of shooting was enjoyed by all. The high five were led by Chuck Taylor with a score of 381 for the four position shoot ing out of possible 400. In sec ond place was Roy Hewitt with 379, followed by Jim Bolton 378, Lew Conger 376 and Florene.Bol- ton with 372. This marked a first time of shooting for Florene Bol ton after a long absence from ac tive competition. Several new shooters partici pated in activities of the eve ning. Herb Gifford became a new member of the club. Vern Fowler, Art Hartager and Jim Gleason were new shooters as well as Jean Lelat, a French ex change student who lives with the Taylors. Octavia B. Waddell, former outdoor regional champion was runner up in score amongst the ladies. Officers said that rifles are available at the club and any one interested in shooting is welcome to come on Wednesday nights. Use Tribune Want Ads Quick in Results! Jenkins & Jones Genera!

PHONE 2-4931 or 3-1064 Wood Picks Beavers To Subdue Webfoots By HAL WOOD United Press Sports Writer San Francisco (U.R) This is the week of tradition and there should be no effigy hang ings, because the season winds up on the gridiron front. So your old pigskin prophet comes out of hiding to give you one last sure-thing set of bets. It's going to be hard to follow comedian Sam Levinson in this job. Sunny Sam picked every major game correctly with the exception of the Washington State-San Jose State tie last week. Of course, he was in lucky Las Vegas, where that kind of picking system works all the time, it says here. So down to work for this week: UCLA over Sottfhern Calif ornia: It took such overlooked teams as Minnesota and Stan ford to burst the USC bubble. The Trojans just don't have it for the big ones, it seems Jon Arnett nothwithstanding. Of course, the Bruins are without Ronnie or Harvey Knox. First Down Brown should have a field day, getting to play the full game at tailback. By 13. Stanford over California: For eight straight years the Indians haven't been able to turn back the Golden Bears, although they have picked up a couple of ties. But this year California doesn't appear to have the steam and the Indians seem to rise to the big occasions. So we'll take Stan ford by two points. Oregon State over Oregon: Coach Len Casanova has been in the hospital and the Webfoots aren't feeling too well, either, after their rout last week by Stanford. Young Tommy Proth- ro has done a fine coaching job for the Beavers and his single wing should romp over the Ducks. By nine. Washington over Washington State: The Huskies may have their troubles with some teams, but against the Cougars it should be a field day tradition or not. You could pick WSC, which has won only one game, off comparative games against California. The Bears beat Wash ington and only tied WSC. But we'll take the Seattle club by seven. v Idaho over Montana: Vandals having one of their poorer sea sons, but Montana has dropped in class since leaving the Pacif ic Coast conference. By 12. San Jose State over Fresno State. These two teams boast a pair of the finest records in the West, but the Spartans have been playing a much tougher schedule. Tony Teresa should Fred Spiegelberg Phoenix Gridiron Banquet Speaker Phoenix Medford football coach Fred Spiegelberg will be principal speaker' at the annual Phoenix High school football banquet at 6:30 p.m. today in the school cafeteria.

Athletic department officials said Casanova hoped to be re covered sufficiently by Saturday to sit on the bench with his Web foots when they meet arch ri vals Oregon State in the tradi tional civil war here. Saturday is Homecoming on the Oregon campus. baffle the Bulldogs by about 20 points. Also: Pomona Clarement over Occidental, Whittier over Redlands, Santa Barbara over Long Beach State, Cal Poly over San Francisco State, Pepperdine over Los Angeles State, Chico State over Humboldt State, Ari zona over New Mexico, College of Pacific over Texas Tech, Ari zona Tempe State over New Mexico A&M, Willamette over Linfield, Lewis & Clark over Pacific, College of Idaho over Whitman, Whitworth over Mon tana State.
