Black Tornado Eager
For Clash With Bucs
"The kids are eager. I like
their attitude." That was the
word last night from Head Coach
Fred Spiegelberg on drills of the
Medford high football team for
its encounter with the Marsh
field Pirates.
Medford opposes the Bucca
neers, defending state A-l titlists
on Friday at Coos Bay.
The tussle, which is non- con
ference, might be considered
"just another ball game." But
the Black Tornado doesn't look
at it quite that way. In addition
to the prestige at stake, there's
the matter of evening the score
for last year's 40 to 19 humilia
tion in the state play-off finals.
And the Tornado is looking for
Its first win over the Pirates
since 1951. The best it's done
were ties of 0 to 0 in 1953 and
20 to 20 in the regular season
last year.
Spiegelberg indicated that his
,squad, except for Tackle Frank
Albert, is ready for. action
against Marshfield. It's doubtful
that Albert will play, although
he is to go along and suit up.
The lineman sprained an ankle
in the David Douglas game. His
ankle might be able to take it
this week end but Spiegelberg is
more concerned abotlt having Al
bert in top shape in Southern
Oregon conference and District
6 A-l scuffles.
The Tornado suffered another
blow last week just after it was
announced that John Harvey had
turned out and would bolster the
backfield. He recracked the col
larbone, fracture of which had
kept him from previously turn
ing out for the squad.
Defense Stressed
Defense has got -the main at
tention of the Tornado in recent
drills. That phase of the game
was gone over thoroughly on
Thursday, Friday, Monday and
yesterday. The Tornado has not
had a tackle scrimmage this
wek and Spiegelberg did not
plan one for today. There has
been dummy scrimmage, how,
ever, as the club sought to polish
its offense. And pass scrimmage
with blocking but no tackling
was contemplated for this after
noon.
With,Albert more than likely
sidelined for the Marshfield mix.

the head coach said that the bat

Hardy Spurgeon, 200 pound
fullback, back from the PiraU's
state title crew, is the big gua
of the Marshfield backfield this
fall. The Coos Bay club has fast
halfbacks in Walt Hunter, 167,

By HOWARD APPLEGATE
Portland (ID The Univer
sity of Oregon football team is
up to its old tricks this season,
breaking the hearts of its fans
and possibly its own morale.
The Ducks, who meet UCLA
in a Pacific Coast conference
game vital to Oregon's Rose
Bowl hopes here Saturday night,
gave fans a double dose of the
disappointment medicine against
Pittsburgh last week end.
First of all, Oregon complet
ed a 45-yard pass play late in the
first half which saw Halfback
Jim Shanley scamper untouched
across the Panther goal line.
But what happened? Oregon was
offside. ,
UCLA Game Hurt
Then, after going ahead 3-0 on
a field goal, Oregon's pass de
fense vanished with just 22 sec
onds to play allowing Pitts
burgh to complete a pass that
won the game for the eastern
ers 6-3.
Oregon boosters' hope that the
last-second loss to Pitt won't
affect the Ducks' morale, but
they too well remember last
year's game with UCLA.
In that one, Shanley, called by
many of the West's best all
around halfback, took the open
ing kickoff to the Bruin one-yard
line. What happened? Oregon
was caught clipping and was
penalized back to its own two,
in effect a 97-yard penalty.
UCLA went on to win 6-0.
At It Again
The very next week Oregon's
Jack Morris returned a kickoff
to the Washington seven. What
happened? The Ducks fumbled.
They lost this one, too, as well
as the next pair and were out
of the Rose Bowl. picture before
they recovered in the final weeks
to beat Southern Cal and tie
champion Oregon State.
In the Ideaho game this sea
son, the Ducks were at it again.
On the very first play of the
season. Morris rejaabiearj ail the
way to the Iflaho ewe. What hap
pened? The Dueks wer? pushed
back to the eight ia ton- downs
and barely got W the Vndals
9-6.
The Ducks, a fins defensive
club, will have to ffrsS some way
of getting the ball trer the goal
line, and not choking up whe
opportunity present itself i
they are going to Pasadena this
season. And with ewly thrGB
other teams Stanferd, Wash
ington State and California

Bruise Pills
Being Taken
By Aggies
By ED FITE
Dallas, Tex. (IP) Texas A&RI
football players are taking
special vitamin capsules design
ed to soften the effects of bruises
and sprains and minimize the
recovery time from such injuries,
the United Press learned today.
The tests, which have been,
carried out the past year by
team trainer Charles E. Smokey
Harper and supervised by the
team physician, Dr. R. Henry
Harrison, are far from conclu
sive, but Harper said today that
he was "impressed with the ap
parent sucess" and that he plan
ned to continue using the vita
mins'. .
If it proves as worthy &s the
preliminary findings indicate,
the "bruise pill," as it has been
nicknamed, could have a far
reaching effect on the treatment
of superficial wounds such as
bruises, hematomas and muscle
strains and sprains for all types
of athletes.
Not Pep Pill
Harper emphasized that ia o
way is the capsule which carries
the trade name C.V.P. and is
manufactured by the U.S. Vita
min Corp. to be construed ass a
"pep pill."
"It is a bioflavanoid prepara
tion made from citrus peel and
juices with Vitamin C added,"
he said.
"It has no pep qualities what
ever." He pointed out that this
type of medicine has been used
by medical authorities in the
past in cases where capillary
fragility was a problem.
He said that controls conduct
ed on Texas A&M players last
season, during spring training
and also this fall indicate there
is a definite decrease ia t-fce in
cidence of both su-pe-rfkial and
deep bruises, sprains asad strains
among those players who are
givea the eagsaie .
Sugar Says No
Direct Bribe
Offer Received
New York W Sugar Ray
Robinson could become "Silent
Ray" if he heeds the advice of
the N. Y. state athletic commis
sion and zips his lip in the pres
ence of sports writers.
Julius Helfand, commission
chairman, told the ex-middleweight
champion to be "very
careful'' in future statements to
th press, lest he become in
relred in another rhubarb.
Helfand cautioned Robinson at
the conclusion of Tuesday's two
hour hearing into Sugar Ray's
quoted or misquoted claims that
be had received many bribe-offers
to throw fights during his
career. No action was taken
against anyone.
Robinson, chief witness at the
hearing, said that (1) the sports
writers at a training camp press
conference had misinterpreted
his remarks, or (2) he had given
them the wrong impression; for
he actually never had received
a direct offer of a bribe from
anyone.
He had, however, heard re
marks or "cracks" at various
times from spectators at his
training camps that could have
been "leads" he might have fol
lowed had he been interested in
money instead of winning fights.
