TORNADO, INDIANS TUSSLE
iCAL TURF TONIGHT
- Fans expecting to see a Black 1
Tornado when they go out to the 1
Medford Senior High school !
football stadium tonight are in
for a surprise. 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

burg followers to disclaim a

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.
Riley, out of action because of
a hand laceration, missed Med
ford's first game of the season
and was in on just a few plays
last week end. Game time at the
senior high stadium is 8:15 p.m.

the Ashland game.
Lane, Larson Out
Medford prospects for the sea
son took a boost this week end
with the turnout of halfback
Bilbee Lane, fullback Wally
Larson and letterman tackle
Pete Kershaw. Lane, who trans
ferred from Rogue River last
winter, and Larson, who has
jayvee experience, will be in uni
form and may see some service
tonight. Kershaw is not sched
uled to be in suit. Lane won the
Oregon half-mile title for Med
ford last spring while .Larson
won the state low hurdles and
was second in the highs. Lane
was a top back for Rogue River
last fall.
Coach Fred Spiegelberg re
ported that fullback Bob Gee,
out with a cold on Wednesday,
was back in school yesterday.
Lester Harris, Medford high
principal, has announced that
tonight and at future Medford
home games this season the
west side grandstand will be for
students only.
MEDFORBvTRIBUKB
Ducks Favored in Opener;
Oregon Staters Underdogs
Portland (U.R) Oregoh and
Oregon State football teams open
their 1956 seasons tomorrow
against Big Seven opposition
away from home. -
Coach Len Casanova's Ducks
fU-w eait for a game with Colo
rado while Coach .Tommy Proth
ro'a Beavers meet Missouri: also
great year for their club, the
Medfordites are not overlooking
a threat from the Umpqua val
ley city lads, who last week
crushed Ashland 42 to 0.
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. I'i
marks the White Sox' first hook
up with a Triple A club. Earlier
the Memphis Chicks of the
Class AA Southern Association
announced they were severing
their relations with trie Sox be
cause of a "difference of opinion
on player personnel."
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. :.
Central Catholic, which so far k -hasn't
appeared as powerful as
in recent years, meets a strong r
Beaverton eleven. Gresham is
heavily favored over David I , .
r)niilni while Astoria faces I
Milwaukie and a test of strength f
for the Fighting Fishermen.
Other top games this week end
include: McMinnville at Girard;
Forest Grove at Oregon City;
Cottage Grove at Eugene; North
Bend at Springfield; Roseburg at
Medford; Ashland at Phoenix;
Redmond at Crater; La Grande
at Caldwell, Ida.; Washougal,
Wash., at The Dalles; Mac-Hi at
Kennewick. Wash.; Pasco, Wash.,
at Pendleton; Corvallis at Leban
on; North Salem at Prineville.
and South Salem at Sweet Home.
on the opponent's field
Oddsmakers have made Ore
gon a slight favorite and Oregon
State a slight underdog. 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.

And low first cost
is only your first saving
Before you buy your next truck, look
at both sides of Ford's story of value.
Check what you get and what it costs.
You'll like what you see.
Look at the costs. Ford's first cost is
low. Resale value is high. Modern
Short Stroke engines V-8 or Six are
designed for less friction, less wear, lower
running costs. Maintenance costs are
lower, too, because Ford trucks are built
stronger for rugged long life. And a
10-million truck study prove Ford
trucks last longer.
Look at what you get and you'll see
you get more in a Ford. For example,
more horsepower per dollar proved by
a comparison of factory-suggested list
prices and net horsepower of all truck
lines. You get more comfort with a
Driverized Cab, and more safety with
Ford's exclusive Lifeguard features.
Look carefully . . . consider everything.
You'll agree Ford trucks cost less, give
you more. If you want a great deal a
great deal more for your money see
your Ford Dealer.
