Studebaker- Packard 'BE' LEIGH MOTORS 134 South Riverside Medford, Oregon - Bowl, meet a resurgent Califor nia football team at Hay ward field Saturday with a damp field in prospect. Upwards of 20,000 fans are expected to watch Coach Len Casanova's Ducks seek their fourth straight PCC victory. But, in California, the Webfoots meet a rebounding team which dumped USC 12-0 last week after four straight losses to strong opponents. Oregon is 3-0 in the PCC while the other three bowl elig ibles, California, Stanford and WSC, all have lost one confer ence game. Each team still has five conference games left so the bowl picture actually is about as decided as the first moon visitor. Chapman Gone Oregon will be without Norm Chapman, its regular center from Medford, who dislocated an ankle against WSC last week. He is replaced by Bob Peterson, a standout from Marshfield high. But the Ducks lack depth as the key defensive position. California suffered a blow Thursday when regular half back Jack Hart, the team's lead ing ground gainer, was hospi talized with a high fever. He was replaced in the starting lineup by John Stewart. The weather man predicted occasional showers and clearing periods for the game. Rain has fallen most of the week. THREE SIGNED Detroit (IP) The Detroit Ti gers have signed three young outfielders to non-bonus con tracts. They are John Fourcade of Gretna, La., Irving Lyndes of North Stratford, N. H., and Li onel Lindgren of Fayette, Ohio. Medford high, carrying the role of favorite, seeks Its 20th football triumph over Eureka, Calif., tonight when it takes on its traditional California foe at the senior high school stadium here. With an 8:15 p.m. kick-off time, it will be the 27th skirmish in the interstate rivalry dating back to 1930. Medford has won 19 times and Eureka on six oc casions. One game, in 1943, end ed in a tie. The Black Tornado of Oregon won 34 to 0 over the Loggers last year at Eureka for their sec ond straight verdict after three losses in a row to the Califor nians. Last Logger victory was 12 to 7 in 1954 in gooey mud at Areata, Calif. Loggers Seek Upset Medford carries the more im pressive record into tonight's hassle but the evening will find Eureka intent on brightening up its season with an upset. The ac tion puts a T formation Logger attack up against the multiple threat of Medford's unbalanced line offense with both T and single wing plays. Eureka's of fensive could be rather well balanced between rushing and passing while the Black Tornado generally comes up with its aer ials as elements of surprise. The Tornado will offer a larg er assembly of backfield talent with Tony Brauner at quarter, John Jones, Gerry Lyons, Skip Bennett and Ron Reich at half backs and Bob Gee, Larry Brown and Fred Fuston at full. Jerry Olson, fullback, is the big gun of the Logger ball toting crew. Among others expected to see much service are Rod Ra doni, a speedster, Jim Hasz, and Allen Eubanks, halfbacks, and Mike Minor, quarterback. Brace for Clark Just how much action No. 2 quarterback of the Tornado, Jim Clark, will seeis a question. A special brace has been obtained for his injured knee but Coach Fred Spiegelberg may "save" Clark, who also is a top defen sive player, for the action two weeks from now with Grants Pass high. If Clark does get into the ruckus tonight it will be mostly on offense, Spiegelberg indicated. It's between Fred Funston and Reich who'll hold the ball for Medford point-after-touchdown, kicks. They are among 10 players who have tried out as replacement for Bob Pond who suffered a broken ankle in the Klamath Falls brush last week. So far as the linemen go Med ford has somewhat more experi ence and a bit more beef al though Stan Krupka of Eureka at 255 pounds will be heaviest man on the field. While Medford is non-league action this evening, Klamath Falls will be at Grants Pass and Ashland at Crater (Central Point) for Southern Oregon con ference contests. .... ...-.,..,,,,..,, , i . W ftp tuwtr 1 m ViV ii liif ii i r iifi mM OPPOSES LOGGER CREW Ron Reich, above, is scheduled among the starters for the Med ford high football gang this eve ning when it tussles Eureka, Calif., here. Reich holds down the right halfback job for the Tornado. Game time is 8:15 p.m. Clemson Upsets South Carolina Columbia, S.C. (IP) Sopho more quarterback Harvey White sparked Clemson in two swift thrusts Thursday to an upset victory over South Carolina, 13 0, before 44,029 fans who were dampened by pre-game showers but sat in sunshine at the end. Hedrick 8th Defeats CP Hedrick Junior high eighth gradegrade gridders downed Central Point 20 to 6 here yes- terday. The Hornets led 7 to 0 at the quarter and 14 to 0 at halftime. j Two runs of 10 to 15 yards ! by Ron Gandee set up the first ; touchdown. Mike McCullough j went up the middle the last 15 yards and Dick Byrd passed to Norm Olson for the conversion. A couple of long runs by Mc- j Cullough put the ball in place j for the second touchdown dash. ; Paul Garren went the last 35 j yards to the end zone and Mc- ; Cullough swept end for the extra. Champ Scores Dashes by McCullough and Gandee helped in the third push and Garren went off tackle for the TD. For Central Point John Champ j took the ball on a keeper and j romped 65 yards to the goal. Hedrick showed defensive im provement with the whole line turning in a fine game. Lineman cited were Olson, John dePlace, Chuck Allen, Pat Williams, Mike Miller, Rennie Vowell and Paul Bauer. All members of the Hornet squad of about 25 got into the game. MOREHEAD IN ARMY Philadelphia UPi The Phil adelphia Phillies revealed today that Seth Morehead. is undergo ing Army training at Camp Chaf fee, Ark., under the six months active duty program. The south paw pitcher will miss spring training next year but, will re join the team shortly after the season starts. MONEY DURING OUR BIG 2nd ANNIVERSARY SALE!

(IP) At least 11 horses were expected to go postward in Saturday's $30, 000 added Tanforan handicap as the track closes its strike-shortened meeting. Tanforan re-opened Thursday after having been idled 26 days by a pari-mutuel clerks' strike. A crowd of 7,249 turned out de spite the wet weather and wagered $449,783. Favored Sun Hannah, owned by R. S. Lytle, easily won the featured race with apprentice Ronnie Fairholm aboard. The three-year-old daughter of Han nibal and Sun Tigress broke first in the five-horse field and grad ually pulled away to lead by three lengths at the wire. Speedy Edie was third. Grade Football Tilts Postponed Three Medford elementary school grid games to have been battled yesterday were post poned because of wet weather. They are to be made up Monday afternoon weather permitting. The games match Oak Grove against Washington, Roosevelt against Lincoln and Jackson against Jefferson. Hawaii Girl Queen Of OSC Homecoming Corvallis 0PI Pearl Friel, Oregon State college senior from Hawaii, was chosen Thursday night as queen to preside over homecoming functions for the Nov. 2 week end when Oregon State and Washington State have it out on the gridiron. Miss Friel is a major in elementary educa tion. Chosen as princesses were Verle Pilling and Sandra Far rell, both of Portland; Nina Gol lersrud of Skamokawa, Wash., and Lu Ann Mullen, Albany. The use of liquefied petrole um as a motor fuel increased 30 per cent to 850 million gal lons in 1956. There are many fans in this area who are willing to bet that the long undefeated skein of the Marshfield high football Pirates and the unscored upon status of the Coos Bay club will come to an end this Saturday night. The Buccaneers will be hosts to South Eugene in Oregon's big gest prep encounter of the week end. It will also be a key con flict in District 5-A-l. . Marshfield will be on its home field and that's generally been a considerable advantage to the Bucs. But the Pirates will be without the services of their tal ented fullback, Hardy Spurgeon, who suffered a shoulder separa tion in the Springfield deadlock last Friday. Spurgeon's running has been the big feature this year of the Marshfield offense. The other backs this time will have the opportunity to show their full value. DICK AT CENTER Dick McLaughlin, for three seasons a quarterback for the Medford High school Black Tornado is now a center on the Oregon State college Rooks squad. The pivot spot is not a new one to Dick, who play ed that position while a mem ber of Washington Grade school teams here. Tackle Neil Plumley is another ex-Med-fordile on the OSC Rook squad. FLU STOPS BAKER It took an attack of the flu, now devastating football throughout the country, to halt the win string of the Baker high Bulldogs, coached this fall by Stan Smith, ex-Medford high athlete and ex-Eagle Point men tor. And the mar on the Bulldog record is not an on-the-field de feat. It came by forfeiture. Smith's Baker squad of only 22 players, piled up five wins against better-manned Eastern Oregon foes. Clayton Hannon, prep writer for the Eugene Register-Guard, speaks of the flu attacks and the resultant cancellations of games as a "feather in the cap" of those wanting to abolish the present system of state grid play-offs. He points up the fact that the football plan has many opponents. 275 pounds. The animal was killed last Saturday at the foot of Bly mountain by Mrs. W. M. Driver, route 3, box 370 (Highway 99 near Phoe nix). She was a member of a party of six. One other deer, j a doe, was killed. Mrs. Driver ! brought the huge buck down with one shot from around 200 yards away, hitting the animal in the spine. A five year resident of Oregon, Mrs. Driver said she has hunted for years, mostly in Tennessee. MELON FOR PLAYERS After the Myrtle bowl foot ball game between the Oregon Frosh and Oregon State college Rooks at North Bend on Nov. 2, the players will feast on a 120 pound watermelon. The melon, ordered by Claude G. Stotts, Coos Bay realtor, was grown by F. Ortho Russell at Hope, Ark. The game is being played under the auspices of the Coos-Curry Shrine club for benefit of the Shriners' hospital for crippled children at Portland. HOW'S THIS For a TERRIFIC BUY?

Canadian-born Kerwin of Val ley Stream, N.Y., is substituting for Sonny Boy Williams, who was substituting for Italian Paolo Rosi. Both Rosi and Wil liams were bedded by the flu. Busso of New York, 23. ob jected to Kerwin as a replace ment because of his proficiency with the left hook. Johnny al way had a weak defense against left hooks. However, no other capable substitute was available. Bay At Builders Supply QUALITY BLOCKS Bricks, Fines, Drain Tile 727 W. McAndrews Ph.
