EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Friday. October 11. 1957 THREE-SEVENTHS OF MEDFORD LINE Comet players will be looking across at this trio of Medford linemen this evening when the Tornado is host to the Crater high foot ball team. Left to right are End Tom Hamlin, Tackle Tom Morris and Guard Dick Corum, all probable starters for the Black Tornado. They will seek a successful start for Med ford's District 6 A-l crown defense. Tonight's battle is the fifth in football between the two schools. The Tornado has won the last three engagements after an initial win by Comet players in 1953. enous n A deadly serious Black Tor nado goes against a confident, eager and fired up Comet foot ball eleven this evening on the Medford Senior High school turf. . , Medford's Tornado, still weak ened by illnesses which have plagued the squad this week, is host to Crater high in the South ern Oregon conference opener for the home club and the sec ond mix in the circuit for the visitor. Game time is 8:15 p.m. Most of the 11 Tornado play ers who missed drills this week because of flu or virus infections were reported on the mend by Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg. Just how much duty they'll be able to see against the Comets still was a matter of question this morning. Biggest share of those who have been sick were on hand at yesterday's final workout. But, while several were in harness, the others were just standing by and looking on. Clark Absent Skip Bennett, a breakaway left halfback, was still missing from the squad. Reserve quar terback Jim Clark was absent from yesterday's workout. Among those back with the crew yesterday were Centers Jim Funston and Pat McLaugh lin and Tackle Gary Winetrout, who were in suit, and Halfback Gerry Lyons and End Pete Ras mussen, who watched from the sidelines. Crater, as of last night, didn't have the sickness handicap ex perienced by the Tornado. There were a few colds which slowed the efficiency of squad mem bers. But Coach Leonard War ren indicated that Guard George Hunt, who has a strep throat, likely would be the only one missing the game. Despite the illness hindrance, Medford still enters the game as favorite. The Tornado yet has greater depth and has a larger number of experienced players. And its competition has been tougher. Confident Club While the Crater club has been relegated to role of underdog.- the Comet cup actually is brimming with confidence. The close ruckus with Grants Pass did much to bolster the morale of the Central Point club. Coach Warren reported the Comets fired up, unafraid and determ ined to "do the best they can do." ' The Medford Tornado may be somewhat physically down but the spirit is good. "The boys realize the importance of the game and that Crater has a c h a n c e," Spiegelberg said. "They'll be out there de termined." Judging from the four past conflicts between the two schools tonight's ball game should be an entertaining one for fans. Crater has won only once over Medford but has played interesting ball in the other conflicts even when the Tornado victory margin was lopsided.
