TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ' Medford Takes on Ashlanders; Larry Slessler May See Duty For Black Tornado Tonight Tackle Larry Slessler may make his first appearance of the seaion for the Medford High school football team tonight. Coach Fred Spiege'berg has re ported. The Black Tornado engages Ashland in a Southern Oregon conference game with kick-off time at 8 p.m. on the Grizzly gridiron. Slessler, a 210-pounder, ap peared to be "coming into his own" in pre-season practices but fractured a foot bone before the opening clash against Jefferson. Spiegelberg said that the big tackle has been working out with the club this week and will be in uniform this evening. Medford and Grants Pass each will be gunning tonight to keep their records unmarred within the circuit and District 8 A-l. While the Tornado is at Ashland, the Cavemen will be in action at Klamath Falls. The Tornado is picked to win without much trouble but Grants Pass, while favored, may have a game on its hands. The Pelicans will be remem bering last year when an offi cial's ruling denied them a touch down and the possible chance to score another against Grants Pass. Oregon School Activities association officials later award ed KF the disputed touchdown but denied a petition to replay the game. Wt May Hamper Coach Spiegelberg expressed some worry that a wet and muddy field expected mighl cause fumbles which could ham per the Tornado attack. How ever, the main power of the Med ford club is on the ground and its greater weight should prove an asset against the light Griz zlies if the field should prove loggy and slick. For the most effectiveness Ashland needs to combine a passing game with its running attack and wet weather won't help an aerial assault. It is hard to tell wether the Grizzlies will be up for this en counter after absorbing six losses and beating only Phoenix this year. But the Ashlanders may go into the encounter hoping ELOISE C HAYDEN Klamath Falls says: "WOMEN ARE VOTING FOB DOUG McKAY BECAUSE... We appreciate a man of integ rity who can consistently rep resent the people of his home state in national affairs. We teach our children honesty and fair play; here is a living example for them."

MEDFORDfejTRIBUNE SIPCDIIETS Southern Oregon Gridders Head for Monmouth Fray Kansas City U.R' Quar terback Bill Saymour of Southern Oregon . leads the nation's small colleges in total offense with an average of 163.5 yards per game, the NAIA statistical bureau said today. Seymour also is the top passer in NAIA schools with 45 out of 109 for an average of 139.3 yards. Ashland Southern Oregon college football team was north bound at noon today. The Red Raiders of the Rogue play Ore gon College of Education at Monmouth on Saturday night. So far as the Oregon Colle giate conference is concerned, it will be a "do or die" effort for the Raiders. In fact, each club will be plugging for a win in order to stay in the running for' the championship. Its the opinion of coach Al Akin of SOC and the followers of the Raiders that the rain all week should prove a help rath er than a hindrance to the Ash land collegiate club. A wet slick field, it is felt, should slow down the fast ball carriers of the well knit Wolf backfield. On the basis of performances against OTI last week and part ly because of injuries there has been some alteration in the Raider line for the Monmouth appearance. Akins has indicated that he may open with Norm Oliva and Norm Hedgepeth, ends, Bill Stewart and Herb Colley, tackles, Chuck Romine and John Garrett, guards, and Polishing and i.Hri4-l Ifa a Recovering, Tops, Seats ifi t JJtll VI VII t w Friday.

Linemen Applauded Colley, Romine and Garrett, veteran linemen, drew praise for their work against Oregon Tech. Garrett and Romine have been playing 55 to 60 minutes per game in the recent actions. Crabtree, a 207-pounder, got his chance in the final quarter against OTI and earned his start ing opportunity. Stewart, a 250 pounder, shifts from center to tackle. Larry Schweinfurt, a regular end, is crippled by an ankle sprain. The Raider backfield may be the usual combine of Bill Sey mour, quarter; Ted Tenney and Chuck' Crandall, halfbacks, and Don Korns, fullback. Korns has been hampered by a leg injury. Ralph Clarno had appeared ticketed for the fullback posi tion until he turned his ankle again yesterday. While short on experience, Herb Santee and Ted Owens are said to be performing cap ably at quarter. Gernhart, Buss and Garrison are the backs with both speed and drive. The line has proved touch against foes of the wolves. 15 Wolf Leitermen Good experience in the back field, except at quarterback, and limited experience in the line, tells briefly how the Wolves were fixed at the start of the 1956 campaign.
