Roughing the Kicker
Penalty Hurts Crater
If the Black Tornado of Med-
ford high roars on through the
rest of its Southern Oregon con
ference slate like it did over its
"crosstown" Crater foes Friday
night, it's a cinch to capture its
fourth consecutive league and
District 6 A-l football diadem.
Minus several of its "horses"
because of illness, the Tornado
fcas still a potent force as it
owed with a whirl into 1957
istrict competition. Unleashing
mighty, high-geared, sharp and
versatile offensive in the first
Jialf along with alert, rock wall
(defense, which virtually stymied
the Crater attack, the defending
litlist Medfordites thundered 40
to 14 over the Comets of Central
Joint.
Medford put together the run
lng of Bobby (Whiz) Gee, Ron
Jeich, Gerry Lyons and Dick
Durantee, the passing of Lyons
and Tony Brauner, some fine
blocking headed by Brauner, Ly
ons, Reich and Tom Hamlin and
defense paced in the line by
Gary Winetrout in compiling the
victory. The Tornado was on top
10 to 0 at the quarter and 34 to
at halftime.
Penalty Gives Impetui v
Crater fired up with a smooth
er offense and stiffer defense
over the last two periods of the
contest. During the first half the
Comets were not the stubborn
unit that gave Grants Pass a
stern battle In the conference a
week ago.
A roughing the punter penalty
against Crater in the opening
moments of the game provided
the impetus for an overpower
ing Medford offensive. The Tor
nado received the opening kick
off. Three running plays gained
Medford only six yards. Quart
erback Brauner was forced to
kick on fourth down. But the
Infraction was tooted against the
Comets and 15 yards stepped off
gave the Tornado a first down
on its 46-yard line. Medford
pushed on from there to the
goal.
Halfback Reich went off tac
kle for 20 yards. Crater was
penalized five yards for offside.
A keep and pitch, Brauner to
Reich, gained 13 to the 17-yard
Crater line. Fullback Gee made
four more and Halfoack Lyons
slanted over the right side of the
line for the 13 to the end zone.
Passes Score
A 30-yard pass play, Lyons to
Brauner, picked up another
touchdown and Brauner heaved
to Reich for 22 yards and an
other TD in the first quarter. In
the second quarter Gee poked
the last foot for a score after his
24-yard ramble had set up the
touchdown. In the closing por
tion of the panel Medford Quar
terback Jim Clark intercepted
an aerial by Crater Quarter
Wayne Allen and with his neat
lateral to Fullback Larry Brown
the 32-yard runback got Med
fords fifth TD.
The Comets cracked the first
line defenses of the Tornado for
a touchdown in the third quart
er, shoving 40 yards and with
Allen sneaking the last one foot.
Crater went 69 yards to tally
In the fourth canto with Allen
sneaking the last yard. Medford
stormed back when Dick Duran
te ran the kick-off back 72 yards
to the Comet seven. Gee piled

over the right side of the line
to the end zone.
Guard Tom Merton, kicking
conversions in place of sickness
sidelined Tackle Mike Murray,
booted four points after touch
downs for Medford. Halfback
Bob Fowler went over on a
pitchout for one Crater bonus
point. Allen hurled to End Jerry
Kime for the other.
Left Halfs Out
Among the Tornado gridders
out of action because of illness
were left halfbacks Johnny
Jones and Skip Bennett. Lyons
saw duty at the post after hav
ing missed drills since last Mon
day. Gee sparked the Medford of
fense with 127 yards gained, in
cluding 24 and 38-yard gallops
and was the workhorse with 14
carries. Reich had 95 yards from
rushing on 10 packs and had 20,
13, 22 and 18-yard efforts. He
broke loose for 55 yards on a
punt return. Lyons gained 59.
Main toters for the Comets were
Fullback Kerman Bennett, 37,
Halfback Allen Barnes, 33, and
Fowler, 31.
Barnes and Fowler were the
heavy duty tacklers of the night,
credited with 11 and 10 stops,
respectively. Bennett was .in on
eight halts of Tornado ball car
riers. Tackle Gary Winetrout
was the stopper of Comets oh
seven occasions, according to the
records. The tackles by Medford
players were pretty well divid
ed. Medford domination of the
first half was shown by the 256
yards in rushing and passing it
accumulated while holding Cra
ter to a net of 35 yards. The
Comets had the yardage edge of
158 to 148 in the second half.
The Central Pointers piled up
some of it against top Medford
defenders but the 69-yard march
against Tornado non - regulars
helped up the total.
Exchange of Fumbles
First down margin for the
Tornado in the first half was 10
to 4. Second Medford TD fol
lowed an exchange of fumbles.
Tackle Tom Morris was instru
mental in causing a Crater muff
and Linebacker Jim Funston fell
on the ball. Tackle Jim Golden
penny recovered a Medford fum
ble for the Comets. Medford held
Crater to a net loss of two yards
on three down and Allen punted
to midfield. Lyons scooted back
to the Crater 38 to get the scor
ing punch going.
Gee went nine to the 29 and
Reich six to the 23. Brauner lost
ground and offside put Medford
back to the 30. After one incom
plete toss by Brauner, Lyons
connected with the quarterback
for the TD.
Reich returned an Allen punt
from the Tornado 23 to the
Comet 22 and set up touchdown
No. 3. Brauner hit Reich for the
score on the next play. Bennett
kept Reich from going all the
way on the punt runback. The
Medfordite sprang loose for the
run when a would-be Crater
tackier slipped on the turf.
A 33-yard pass play, Lyons to
Reich, was the big gainer on a
70-yard Medlord promenade to
its fourth touchdown. That put
the ball on the 24. Gee went
from that spot to the one-foot
ond quarter. Gee was Medford's top ground gainer against the
Comets and crossed the goal twice. Brauner caught one touch-
down pass and threw another. The Tornado built up a 34 to 0
halftime margin and won 40 to 14.
spot and crossed to pay dirt on
the next play.
Interception Stops Drive
Crater's best attack of the first
half carried it from its own 16
to the Medford 40 in the second
quarter. Brown's pass intercep
tion put a stop to the threat.
The Tornado went from its own
19 to the Comet 36 but Bennett
Snagged a Reich toss to give
Crater the ball on its 15. That
set the stage for Clark's inter
ception and lateral to Brown for
the scoring runback.
Allen's interception of a Brau
ner throw gave the Comets their
chance in the third quarter. With
the ball on the Medford 40, Ben
nett got loose to the 22. Fowler
made two and Bennett eight to
the 12 and three to the nine.
Medford offside put the ball on
the four. Barnes and Bennett
made a yard each and Fowler
got down to the one-foot mark
and Allen dove into the end
zone.
A 45-yard pass play, Allen to
Kime, covered most of the dis
tance in Crater's last quarter as
sault. It put the ball on the 24.
Halfback Jim E 1 d r e d packed
twice for three-yards each and
Allen passed to Kime again to
make 13 yards to the five. Barn
es lost to the seven. Fowler went
six to the one and Allen kept
on a spread play for the score.
Sharpness Amazes
Medford mixed a predomin
ately T formation attack with
single wing and pass plays in
gaining the triumph.
Victory brougnf considerable
pleasure to Coach Fred Spiegel
berg who was "amazed at how
sharp they were." He declared
that the Tornado first half de
fense was "terrific."
The loss by such a margin was
naturally disappointing to the
Comets who had fully expected
to make a tougher game of it.
"We can play better ball than
that. We're better than we show
ed," Coach Leonard Warren re
marked. He added that, when
Medford caught fire, there was
no stopping it.
Forty-three Medford players
and 26 Crater gridmen got into
the game.

Ike Logart
Nabs Bout
Detroit OP Cuban Isaac Lo
gart today looked forward to
a spot in the eliminations for
the vacant welterweight title aft
er easily disposing' of "one
armed" Joe Miceli here Friday
night.
"The fight went just the way
we planned it," the No. 2 rank
ed contender said. "I didn't
have any trouble with him."
Miceli did have Logart in
trouble, however, in the second
round of their 10-round nationally-televised
bout. The 28-year-old
New Yorker drove Logart
against the ropes with a furious
combination of short lefts and
rights.
Logart covered up expertly
after the barrage, rode out the
brief storm, and didn't let Miceli
get another such golden oppor
tunity. Miceli further was ham
pered by his own right arm.
"I just don't have any power
in it," he said. It was conspicu
ous by its absence. He had to
use his left like a hammer but
the blows showed no effect on
Logart.
Three Juvenile
Pheasant Hunts
Remain in Month
Portland Young hunters
opened the juvenile pheasant
shoot on the E. E. Wilson game
management area with a bang
last Saturday and Sunday, and
all agreed they had a whale of
a time with plenty of shooting
and they got birds too.
Saturday saw 54 youngsters
check into the shooting area,
bang away with eager enthusi
asm all day, and come away
with 73 beautiful pheasant roos
ters. Success for the first day's
shoot was almost a bird and a
half per hunter.
On Sunday it rained all day,
and the success was again good
considering the weather. The
rain did not dampen the spirits
of the 44 young neophytes who
checked in and took 31 birds
during the day's hunt.
The juvenile pheasant shoot
on the E. E. Wilson game man
agement area will run for three
more week ends, Oct. 12, and
13, 19 and 20 and 26 and 27.
The hunt is restricted to young
sters from 14 to 17 years of age
who must be accompanied by
licensed adults over 25 years
of age. Adults will not bear arms
but will be responsible for the
conduct of their charges. A
maximum of 50 permits will be
issued each day.
