night to knot with the Cavemen
of Grants Pass in the confer
ence and district standings. Each
has three victories and un
blemished in the dual circuit.
Pressed all the way in gaining
the nod over Ashland, the Med
fordites were paced by the run
ning of Halfbacks Johnny Jones
and Skip Bennett and Fullback
Bob Gee and by the defensive
leadership of Center and Line
backer Jim Funston in overcom
ing the Grizzlies.
Got Tough Game
Fans expecting to see a Tor
nado walkaway were jolted in
the early moments to acknowl
edge that Medford had an angry
Bruin on its hands and the
possibility that Ashland might
calm the Big Wind lingered
even after the home club had
established its final margin.
The passing threat of the
Simpson brothers, Pat and Don,
the deceptive delayed and
quickie running game ipurred
by Fullback Al McKinnis and
the defensive stubborness of the
Grizzlies, particularly Backs
Wayne Collum and McKinins
and Center Hank Hampton,
meant a rugged night for the
Black Tornado.
"We wanted a tough game
and we got it," Medford Coach
Fred Spiegelberg declared yes
terday. First quarter of the game was
scoreless. Medford finally reach
ed the pay zone in the second
stanza in a seven-yard weak
side jaunt by Halfback Gerry
Lyons and Tackle Mike Murray
kicked the conversion. Ashland
countered seconds before the
halftime horn on a 21-yard pass
play, Pat Simpson to McKinnis.
Halfback Jerry Stubblefield's
extra point thump was wide.
Funston Blocks
Funston blocked . a Grizzly
punt by Halfback Bill Maurer
in the end zone for two Medford
points on a sifety as time faded
out in the third quarter. That
made the score 9 to 6. The
Tornado then marched to a
fourth quarter goal after the
Ashland kick-off with Bennett
covering the last 14 yards slant
ing over right tackle. Murray's
boot this time was wide.
Coach Fred Spiegelberg and
his staff made considerable use
of reserves during the night.
That in itself could be reason
for no Tornado runaway. But
the fired up performance of the
Grizzlies couldn't be discounted
and a good share of the sub-i
stituting was to find a combina
tion to restrain the ambitious
Grizzlies.
Medford first capitalized on
a scoring opportunity after a
punt by Quarterback Tony
Brauner of the Tornado gave
Ashland ball on its 12 yard line.
Funston spilled Pat Simpson for
a four-yard loss and1 End Tom
Hamlin and Tackle Tom Morris
dumped Stubblefield for a set
back to the four-yard line.
Maurer punted out to the 22
and Fullback Larry Brown of
Medford got back to the 18.'

Brown then rammed for gains
of five and six yards to the
seven and Lyons went tha rest
of the way.

heaved to McKinnis who burst
through a couple of Tornado de
fenders, snared -the ball and
crossed for a counter.
The Tornado pretty well
dominated the third quarter but
collected only the two points
on an Ashland safety. A drive
with 15 plays and four first
downs took Medford to the Ash
land six. The Grizzlies took over
and McKinnis gained to the 17.
A delay of game infraction put
Ashland back on the 12. McKin
nis got to the 113 but Gray

Ashland kicked off from its
20 and Gee ran the ball back
to the Grizzly 3.7. Four tries put
the ball on the 14 for the tabu
lating maneuver by Bennett. A
run by Brauner and lateral to
Halfback Dick Duante picked up
12 yards.
The Grizzlies moved from
their own 36 to the Medford 32
in the fourth quarter and Med
ford march back to the Ashland
35. Brauner punted out of
bounds to the Lithian 19. A pass
attempt by Pat Simpson was
smeared when Guard Heath
caught the Ashlander on the 12.
From there the Lithians gained
to midfield where Medford 1 got
the ball on downs and held on
as time ran out.
Success in the early portion
of the game was a tonic to the
Grizzly moral. Medford, how
ever, came close to a touchdown
fracas into a route.
Ashland had the ball on its
27. A Pat Simpson aerial was
intercepted by Medford Back
Jim Clark. He battled toward
the goal but lost the ball in a
final big effort to reach the end
zone. McKinnis fell on the ball
for Ashland inches from the
pay-off stripe.
The Grizzlies were whistled
for illegal procedure on the
play. Medford accepted the pen
alty and the ball was put in
play on the 24.
Statistics showed Collum in
on some 25 stops for Ashland
while McKinnis was listed for
11 and Hampton nine. Funston
was in on around 20 tackles or
pass bust ups for the Tornado,
teaming on occasions with Mor
ris. McKinnis was the evenings
to gainer from scrimmage with
79 yard. Jones packed for 48
yards for Medford and Bennett
and Gee each for 44.
Players Sidelined
Dick Corum, a starting guard
for Medford, did not play Fri
day because of doctor's orders,
He suffered a blow on the head
in the Eureka game. Don Mann,
another guard, was missing be
cause of flu and Dennis Barr,
a center, because of a broken
nose suffered in practice.
Tornado Halfback Ron Reich
was out of action in the second
half because of an ankle injury
in the second period. Gee was.
hobbled by an ankle injury from
the Eureka game and Lyons
by a sore back.
Threat of the Ashland pass
ing attack through the mix in
dicated to the Tornado that it
will have to spend much time
this week girding its defense
against aerials. Passing is the
forte of the Grants Pass team.
Grants Pass recently licked
Ashland 41 to 6.
