i Red Raiders En Route To British Columbia By BOB MC KENZIE Ashland Ctiach Al Akins is still grumbling to himself about the Southern Oregon college Red Raiders' poor performance, last Saturday when they defeated the Moffett Naval Air Base gridders 26 to 6. This week the Raiders have been concentrating on correcting their mistakes as they readied for travel to Vancouver, B. C, to take on the University of Brit ish Columbia "Thunderbirds" Saturday. Although displeased with the Raiders' play last week end, Coach Akins could not suppress a look of satisfaction when the names of fullback Ron Maurer, quaterback Lance Locke, half back Delmar Brood, and tackle Chuck Romine were mentioned. Maurer scored three times on runs of 75, 52, and 18 yards and will again be expected to lead the SOC attack on the Thunder birds. Locke, completing 9 of 13 passes against the Moffett ground crew, proved that he can inflict a damaging aerial barrage to diversify the Raiders' ground attack. A sophomore transfer from Shasta JC, Delmar Brood proved a pleasant surprise for Coach Akins as he grabbed four Moffett punts for returns of 16, 54, 46, and 82 yeards, only to have two of the dashes called back by SOC penalties. Chuck Romine, all-conference guard last season, is a strong contender for a repeat selection this year. He made key blocks and showed sharp defensive play which was outstanding in a game marked by generally poor line play. The Red and Black clad war riors from Southern Oregon boarded a chartered bus early Friday morning, to travel to Bellingham, Wash., where they will spend Friday night. The SOC team will travel to Vancouver Saturday morning, and will meet the Thunderbirds from the Uni versity of British Columbia at 1:30 p.m. in the 6,300 seat UBC stadium. The Thunderbirds, who lost seven and won two under Coach Frank T. Gnup, last season are of an unknown quality to this year's Red Raider coaching staff, as this is the first meeting be tween the two schools. As mem bers of the Evergreen conference the University of British Colum bia lost to Pacific Lutheran, Eastern Washington, Western Washington. Whitworth College, College of Puget Sound, and de feated Central Washington Col lege to end up seventh in the conference last season. Coach Akins expects to meet a much improved squad in this year's edition of the Thunder birds, and the Red Raiders will have to turn in much improved performance when they take to the turf this Saturday to earn a victory over the UBC team. Y To Begin Gym Classes Saturday Fall and winter gym classes for boys and girls nine through 18 years of age will begin Satur day, Sept. 28. at the YMCA. Gordon Williams, Y physical director, said that much em nhasis will be Dut into games and into body strengthening ex ercises.

Eagle Point Faces Henley On Saturday Eagle Point The Eagle Point high grid crew, which hopes to make up for inexperience with hustle and fire has been looking better this week as it girded for its District 6 A-2 starter. The Eagles have action at Hen ley this afternoon. "Coach Tom Van Etten has drilled his charges on pass de fense much this week. The Eagles showed they needed it when Crater completed so many aerials in the EP non-league opener last Friday. The mentor pointed out that his green aggre gation has much to learn, stating that several players were in ac tion for the first time. He gave particular mention to Bill Skeet ers. a freshman who turned in a fine game at a defensive tackle. Injuries Hurt EP was hit before the season began when Roger Hooper suf fered a broken leg and Duane TresHam a knee injury, sidelin ing them for the season. Fred Hay, who received a cheek frac ture, is do to rejoin the squad. Bill McClure, who had an ap pendectomy, is now with the squad full time and should be ready for backfield service in another week. Possible Eagle starters are Wayne Christian and Bill Hub bard, ends; Jim Bunker and Bob Breb, tackles; Jim "Casey and Mack Lemmon, guards; Steve Charters, center; Doug Chamber lain, quarterback; Dave Huff man, left half; Gary Mendenhall, fullback, and Gary Kaiser, right half.

Perry heads the campus millrace committee and Mit chelmore is editor of the Daily Emerald. Both are seniors at the university. They plan to arrive in Portland in time to attend the Oregon-Pittsburgh football game. (Oregon Emerald photo) Bears Grab 3rd Straight Denver (IP) Denver's hard-hitting Bears flew to Buf falo today in need of only one victory in four games to wrap up the 41st little world series for the American association. Denver pounded four Buffalo pitchers for 16 hits and a 13-9 victory Thursday night to take a 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven- game series. Buffalo represents the International league, also a triple-A circuit. Manager Ralph Houk's Bears have had too much of everything in this little world series mis match. Denver, a New York Yank farm club, simply has the advantage in every department pitching, fielding and especial ly hitting. Friday, September 27, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THIRTEEN Black Tornado Drills Thorough But Not Strenuous During Week Mike Russell, who has been playing a starting defensive! halfback for the Medford high Black Tornado was shifted to an end spot in football workouts this week. Coach Fred Spiegelberg said that the move was made to bol ster the flank and reported that Russell, a regular wingman on offensive plays, may have a starter role at his new post on defense. Tony Brauner, quarterback when Medford is on the attack, and Lartry Brown, an offensive fullback, are being groomed at defensive half. The head mentor reported that the right halfback slot has been strengthened by the turnout of John Harvey, non-letterman jun ior with jayvee experience. Har vey broke his collarbone in an August auto accident. Good Scrimmage Tornado drills this week, with the club having no game, have not been strenuous but still have covered considerable ground. The squad went through funda mentals at the beginning of the week -and has had a lot of prac tice on defense. A "good scrim mage" was held yesterday. Spie gelberg slated another workout this afternoon but said this morning that he thought there would be no scrimmage. Frank Albert, regular ' tackle, is still hobbled with an ankle sprain. The squad has been ham pered quite a bit by colds and flu shots have put some players under the weather. Some players have missed one practice during the week. Medford plays Marshfield at Coos Bay next Friday. SPORTS HIT MARK BECKONS Milwaukee -1 OP) Three Na tional league batsmen stand a good chance of reaching the 200 hit mark in the waning days of the 1957 season. Closest is Red Schoendienst of the Braves with 199 hits, while teammate Hank Aaron has 197. Frank Robinson of the Cincinnati Redlegs has 195. HOT ROD VIEW Hartford, Conn. (IP) The State Safety Commission op poses hot rod speed contests and "drag races" on the grounds that such chance-taking by teen agers "may be basic training for unsafe driving."
