'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.

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 ;

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

Handicap Race
Closes Meeting
San Bruno, Calif. (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.

New York OP) Light
weight contender Johnny Busso
is favored at 12-5 to beat Gale
Kerwin, the second substitute,
