They'll see a Tornado, all right, but well, go out to the field and see. Medford's gridironeers are hosts tonight to the Roseburg Indians. Kick-off is set for 8:15 p m. The Tornado, which has over powered two adversaries so far this season, is the favorite. But despite the tendency of Rose burg followers to disclaim a f -J 7. TORNADO BALL TOTER Gary Riley," above, Medford high's all-conference halfback, is scheduled to see his greatest amount of duty for the Black Tornado so far this season to-, night when Medford plays the Roseburg Indian gridders here.

Weight Advantage Advantage in both weight and experience will be on Medford's side. The Pear Capital eleven has a rusged hard driving line which opens the way for a ver satile offense of T and single wing formation plays. With the line and blocking backs setting them loose, Eldon Francis, Gor don Owsley and Gary Riley all have shown break-away ability. And Medford's passing must be considered a threat. Reserved seat lickets for the Medford - Marshfield high football game here Sept. 28 will go on sale at 7 a.m. Mon day at the senior high school office. Principal Lester Harris announced today. The 7 a.m. lime is to accommodate peo ple who must be at work at 8 a.m. Roseburg will present a T for mation club built around seven returning Indian lettermen and two experienced transfers. The Indians are expected to make up for their lighter weight with speed. Lee Stone, Jim Oerding likely will be the main runners to be seen in action. Brown, fullback, is one of the two transfers, coming from Kel so, Wash. Eddie LaRoque, who came to Roseburg from Billings. Mont., is the No. 1 quarterback. He's rated a good ball handler and fair passers. Oerding plays both halfback and quarter and does some passing. The Indians will be missing Marvin Fray, fast back who was injured in AGREEMENT INKED Chicago U.R) The Chi cago White Sox have signed a working agreement with the In dianapolis Indians, a former Cleveland farm club, of the Class AAA American Association.

Marshfield, Grants Pass In Grid Tilt Oregon high school football teams enter their third week of play tonight with several im portant games and a big jam boree in Portland highlighting the action. Portland teams each play one quarter with the games to be fin- ? ished out Saturday night. More than 20.000 fans were expected. The game attracting the most attention is a clash in Coos Bay between Marshfield, after its 26th straight win, and Grants Pass, which has won two straight. The home town Pirates are fa vored but it might be tough. An other clash puts a strong Albany team in an important, league game against Bend. :.

But many point to the high altitude in Colorado as a possible handi cap to Oregon. And others point to Missouri's poor record last sea son as a possible advantage to Oregon State. Oregon's speedy backfield is carrying most of the hopes of Webfoot fang this year. Back are Jack Morris, Jimmy Shanley and Jack Brown with cool Tom Crab tree to guide them at quarter back. Oregon State's big name is John Witte, the all-American tackle possibility. But the. Bea vers also have their - share of backfield talent in Sam Wesley and Joe Francis along with a promising soph in Paul Lowe. Gonzales Grabs Pro Net Title Milan.
