Newspaper Page TextTWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) ack Tornado meka Loggers Medford's Black Tornado faced a problem of thinning depth at the quarterback slot as it ac complished it3 final tuning today for the non-conference gridiron battle with Eureka high. Tornado stalwarts entertain the longtime California adver sary at 8:15 p.m. Friday night at the senior high stadium here. Coach Fred Spiegelberg's Med ford forces are down virtually to one replacement behind regu lar Quarterback Tony Brauner. Latest casualty at the position is Jim Clark, No. 2 man on of fense and a regular defensive player. Clark has been bothered by possible torn knee cartilage. His doctor has told him he can play as long as the ailment does not hurt him too much but Coach Spiegelberg said that Clark has be?n bothered quite a bit this week by the injury. Its possible that Clark will see duty against the Loggers but just how much is a matter of question. Spiegelberg could hold him back with the hope that his condition will be better for the Grants Pass engagement two weeks from now. Konopasek Up Ranks of quarterbacks began to thin out about a week ago when Tony Monroe voluntarily dropped from the squad. Then Bob Pond suffered a fractured ankle in the Klamath Falls game. Spiegelberg said he planned to bring sophomore Ray Konopasek up from the junior varsity for varsity reserve serv ice. Fullback Bob Gee likely will take over defensive chores in place of Clark. The head "coach reported a good practice yesterday. There was Individual work in blocking and tackling. The Tornado prim ed its defenses for the Loggers, dummy scrimmaged its own of fense and drilled on extra point kick duties. In Eureka the Medfordites will encounter a club which has had a rather bleak season but which will be out to follow last week's examples set by Purdue, Illinois and UCLA in the col legiate ranks. While there are no direct comparisons, season records establish the Black Tor nado as favorite. Six Lertermen This year's Logger aggregation is built around six lettermen. It operates out of a T formation with ground and air attack fairly-well balanced. There have been interesting results in some Eureka games. Logger loss to Del Norte was by the margin of a field goal with the final score 3 to 0. The Eurekans, aft er dropping a 19 to 20 verdict to Fortuna. came back to trim that club 12 to 0.

BOWLING JUNIOR HIGH LEAGUE Standings: Pin Busters Gutter Gang Tumbling Rebels Odd Balls Black Boys - Team 2 Team 3 MYans Splits Fire Balls W. 6 6 4 3 3 3 3 2 0 0 MAIL TRIBUNE MEDFORD Crater, Ashland Bill Encounter on Friday Central Point Crater ana Ashland High school renew a football rivalry dating from A-2 days when they clash here Fri day night in a District( 6 A-l football conflict. Each will be trying for its first Southern Oregon Confer ence victory of the season and each will have somewhat de pleted forces "for the battle with sickness and injury the principal reasons. Coach Leonard Warren re port good practices this week with a lot of hustle but with a shortage of manpower in the Crater Comet camp. With Lee Gossett put out of action in the Grants Pass mix and Kerman Bennett a doubtful player because of injury in the Medford game, Warren had a big problem in filling the full back post. Both men have knee injuries. He could use a couple of sophomores, Jim Eldred and Don Gillaspey, at the spot or could shift Halfback Allen Barnes to full and put John Burns in the right half position. Sickness of Leslie Kellow and Mike Martin means more work without rest for others at the guard positions and eye injury to Ron Gillaspey in a jayvee game has hampered the Comet backfield strength. Just 22 play ers were on hand for Wednesday workout. Warren has indicated that Crater has made some defensive revisions for the Ashland mix. Both its pass offense and pass defense have got attention. At Ashland Coach Al Simpson said his club was back to funda mentals after the loss to Grants list of returning monogram win ners. The hard hitting 165-pound senior fullback is the club's lead ing ball carrier and does a bang up job on defense. Other letter men are Leroy McFarland, end; Stan Krupka, 225-pound tackle; Fred Lundblade, center; Gaylor Carter, guard; Roger Rodoni, converted this year to halfback alter being used as a reserve guard last season. Rodoni, a 170-pound senior, has come along fast as a ball carrier. However, he missed last week's game against Areata be cause of a Future Farmers of America convention in Kansas City and may not be available by Friday night. Hasz Replacement In the event Rodoni hasn't re turned he will be replaced at right halfback by Jim Hasz. Hasz, a 155-pound senior, is play ing his first season of football. He is primarily a track man and basketball player but manages to do a commendable job on the gridiron. Mike Minor, a junior, and Olson round out the start ing backfield. Minor is an aver age passer and fair runner from his quarterback spot. He re placed Don Wilson after the first two week's of the season as the starter. Starting left halfback is Al lan Eubank, a 150-pound junior. Eubank is potentially a fine ball carrier, but needs to develop the knack of following his inter ference. Possible starters in the line are McFarland and Gene Gage, ends: Loren Anderson and Krup ka, tackles: Ken Van Duzen and Gaylor Carter, guards, and Fred Lundblade. center. Lundblade, 195. and Krupka. are the only linemen listed over 180 pounds among the starting seven. Top Defenders Olson and linebacker Ed Peterson rate as top defensive men on the squad. Peterson had a field night recently against Areata. Possible starters for the Tor nado tomorrow are Tom Ham lin and Mike Russell, ends: Tom Morris and Frank Albert or Dick Sorenson. tackles: Tom Merton and Dick Corum. guards: Jim Funston, center; Brauner, quar terback: John Jones or Gerry Lyons, left half: Ron Reich, right half, and Bob Gee, fullback. Pete Rasmussen may replace Russell and Larry Brown may go in for Reich to open on defense.

Most of his squad is on hand after a seige of flu but Simpson reported a number of key players missing. One start ing end, Doug Fitch, has moved to Colorado. The other,. Jack Tobiasson, has dropped football because of a shoulder injury. However, Halfback Al South and Tackle Frank Conley are back in shape. South dislocated an elbow in the Yreka game. Quarterback Pat Simpson is lamed by an ankle injury. Oddsmakers Conservative This Week New York OR Broadway oddsmakers, stung badly by last week's wave of upsets, were a little more conservative in their "line" for this week end's col lege football "form sheet," with Oklahoma, the nation's No. 1 team, the only big favorite. The Sooners, rolling along be hind a perfect 5-0 record this season and 44 straight victories in all, were made 27-point fav orites to whip Colorado in a Big Eight game at Norman, Okla. But that was the only big spread game on which odds were offer ed. Third-ranked Texas A&M, fourth ranked Duke and Minne sota were made favorites in what are expected to be the "big" games. Duke was picked by se,ven points over North Car olina State in their Atlantic Coast conference game at ' Ra leigh, N.C.; A&M was made an eight-point favorite to beat Bay lor in a Southwest Conference game at College Station, Tex., and Minnesota was the choice by five points over Michigan in their Big Ten "Little Brown Jug" classic at Minneapolis. Second-ranked Iowa was picked by 16 over Northwestern. Other close picks include:, Tennessee-Maryland, even; Lou isiana one over Florida; Wash ington one over Southern Cali fornia; and UCLA- one over Stanford. Syracuse is a six-point choice over Penn State in their Eastern regionally televised game and Notre Dame is six over Pittsburgh. Quarter Midget Drivers Face Outside Competition Rogue Valley Quarter Midget association will be host to the Northwest association of Port land and the Redding, Calif., as sociation Sunday for an auto race program at the Jackson Hot Springs track.

The two schools meet on the Ashland turf in an important Oregon Collegiate con ference football game at 2 p.m. Saturday.

But he said Oregon's requirements were higher than the minimum. Harris said he was "surprised" by a recent report to the state board of higher education re garding admissions policies at OSC and Oregon "which inti-. mated that charges had been made that out-of-state athletes were given preferential treat ment at Oregon State." Chancellor John Richards said earlier that an investigation had found Oregon State had not vio lated rules regarding admission of athletes. Harris said "As far as I know, no newspaperman who question ed us, or any member of our staff, has ever said that out-of-state athletes as such were ever admitted to any of our state schools on any basis other than those which applied to all stu dents."
