Newspaper Page TextTWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) NAIA Pass Tossers Led By Seymour Ashland When the Southern Oregon college Red Raiders play Oregon Technical institute's foot ball gang at Klamath Falls on Saturday, their attack will be spearheaded by the top passer among schools in the National Association of Intercollegiate athletics. Reports from Kansas City, Mo., show that quarterback Bill Seymour of the Red Raiders has the best pass completion record in the NAIA. He has thrown 82 times with 33 being gathered in by receivers. His tosses have gained 421 yards, for the SOC eleven, 140 per game. The Oregon Collegiate con ference has been shifted to 2 p.m. Saturday. It will be OTI'i homecoming. The fray was pre viously set up for night conten tion. The action will match two clubs which play about the same brand of ball. Both like to pass a lot. OTI is said to have faster backs than do the Raiders and it is felt to be a strong team since four players recently were dropned. A number of SOC players have been taking it easy on contact work this week in order to be in shape for the Owl engagement. There are no serious hurts re ported but quite a few bumps and bruises are being nursed. Paddy Young Hurt in Fall New York (U.R Paddy Young, hard scrapping New York middleweight, is in good condition at University hospital today following a three story fall while working on a con struction job. The hospital told Harry Stickevers, Young's manager that the boxer is "out of dan ' ger" but did not disclose the nature of his injuries. It was reported that Young, a 28-year-old native of Concord, N.Y., fell from a scaffold on a Madison Avenue building to the ground last Tuesday and was admitted to the hospital in serious condition. BERRA HONORED St. Louis (U.R) Catcher Yogi Berra, one of the New York Yankees World Series heroes, will be honored at a luncheon today by hometown friends.

Portland Pilot Hoopmen Report Portland Sophomore Frank Rector, who won all-state hon ors while at Medford high, is among 22 hopefuls who ans wered basketball coach Al Ne gratti's call to practice this week as the University of Port land Pilots primed their shots for the 1956-57 season. In the vanguard were seniors Jack Scrivens and Wendell Walmsley, guards, and Gene Kutsch, forward, along with junior forwards Jim O'Donnell and Art Chapman and guard Larry Larsen. Also answering the first call was George Hink house, guard, who has not seen action since his freshman sea son three years ago when his career was interrupted by an eye injury requiring serious surgery. Up from last year's unbeaten freshman team are nine sopho more candidates anxious to nail down varsity positions, includ ing John Westermann, 6' 8" cen ter; Larry Walsh, Art Bull, El men Broedel and Dick Jolley, forwards, and Wally Panel, Jim Armstrong, Harvey Jones and Frank Weber, guards. New Pilot hopefuls are Bill Zapp, forward, from Clark col lege, and freshmen John McCor- mick of The Dalles, Joe Etzel from Central Catholic in Port land, and Tom Moore from Lakeview. Gaspar Ortega Defeats Logart Boston (U.R) Young Gaspar Ortega of Mexico was confused enough in victory today to frank ly admit he wasn't sure of future plans after winning a ten-round split decision from favored Isaac Logart. The 21 year old welterweight from Mexicali gained the favor of the " judge and the referee in Wednesday night's triumph over Logart. third ranked in his class and the 4-1 favorite. The second judge ruled the bout a 96-96 draw. PLUNGING OVER FROM the four-yard line is Gordy Young, Stanford fullback. It was the Tornado Grid Contingent Heads For Friday A contingent of Medford high school gridders, 36 players strong, were to leave by bus this afternoon for the coast of North ern California. The Black Tor nado will oppose the Eureka Loggers in the Humboldt county city on Friday night. A 20 to 14 verdict here last season got Medford back on the win trail after losses three years in a row to the traditional Cali fornia rival.' The Tornado will try to take it from there and add to the impressive record over the years against the Log gers. In the longtime rivalry Medford has 18 victories, Eureka six and one game has been a tie. Both clubs will have scores to settle in the fracas. Last year the Tornado broke a win skein at 16 straight for the Californi ans and darkened the record of club recognized as one of Eureka's best in years. The Med ford nod was turnabout for 1954 when a high rated undefeated Tornado club was smeared 12 to 7 in the mud by the Loggers at Areata, Calif. Tornado Most Impressive This year the Black Tornado will go on the field with the most impressive record, having five wins by one-sided scores, tie with the state's No. 1 team and no losses suffered. Eureka has two victories, two losses and a tie so far. The Loggers beat Shasta of Redding, Calif., 19 to 18, Del Norte of Crescent City, Calif., 20 to 13, knotted Fortuna 6 to 6 and dropped decisions to Areata 18 to 7 and to the Eureka alumni 14 to 0. Three regulars of Eureka's strong 1955 club are back among 15 lettermen. They are Errol Scott, 195-pound fullback, Ron Moore, 180-pound guard and Jim Zigienbein, 170-pound all-conference end. Eureka offense is of the wtde open type with spread plays Ducks Base Hopes Record; Beavers Prep for WSC Eugene, Ore. (U.R) The Unl-, versity of Oregon Ducks are counting on their good defensive record to offset the throwing arm of Stanford's John Brodie when the two teams tangle at Hayward Field here Saturday. "I notice we still lead the conference on pass defense and are one of three teams in the loop which has not given up a touchdown yet this season to a passer," Coach Len Casanova said. "If we still are in the same situation after playing Stanford, I know we will have done an EYES ON THE BALL The gallery follows flight of the ball as defending champion Dr. Cary Middlecoff of Dallas, Tex., tees off for the 10th hole during the first round of the 53rd Western Open Golf championship at San Fran cisco's Presidio Golf Club. Watching at left (hands on hips) is Lloyd Mangrum of Apple Valley, Calif. Middle coff and Mangrum wound up with a first round score of 70. Cardinal's first tough contest. Scuffle at Eureka from the T. The Loggers pass a lot, power Scott up the middle and sweep the ends on pitchouts. Coach Fred Spiegelberg prob ably will go with his usual Tor nado starting crews. On offense it will likely be Dick Copple and Mike Stearns, ends, Neil Plumley and Larry Cranston, tackles, Bob Apple and Tom Merton, guards, Dick Swinney, center, Dick McLaughlin, quar terback, Gordon Owsley or Gary Riley, left halfback, Eldon Fran-' cis, right halfback, and Loren Christean, fullback. Defensively the eleven may be Copple and Stearns or Tom Hamlin, ends, Cranston ' and Plumley, tackles, Apple, middle guard, Jim Funston, Merton and McLaughlin, linebackers, and Francis, Owsley and Riley, half backs. Those who may be in the open ing crew on offense for coach Dick Renfro's Loggers are Le Roy McFarland and Jim Ziegen bien, ends, Lou Grossi and Bill Nichols, tackles, Tom McGil livary and Ron Moore, guards, Fred Lindblade, or Doug Kane, center, Denny Guintini, quarter back, Larry Sullivan, left half, Jerry Olsen, right half, and Errol Scott, fullback. ' Heavy Tackles Stan Krupka, 220, and Tom Lee, 200, are tackles in the Eureka line-up on defense. Medford will present the heavier offensive line-up with an average of 185 pounds per man but may face a defensive line almost its weight, around 18312. But the attacking line of Eureka, averaging around 176V2 pounds, could be up against a Tornado forward wall of 195 pounds or better average. The Black Tornado so far this season has piled up 1918 yards from scrimmage to 1489 by op ponents, averages of 319.6 to 248.1. It has gained 1498 rushing and 420 passing to rivals 1020 on Defensive excellent job of n defense and probably will have won a ball game." Corvallis, Ore. U.R) Coajfi Tommy Prothro stressed pass defense Wednesday as his Ore gon State Beavers prepared for Saturday's game with the Coug ars of Washington State.
