Quarterback Jim Smith and
End Mike Sparlin, ace pass duo
of the Grants Pass Cavemen,
were the only unanimous se
lections in the Medford Mail Tri
bune's poll to select a 1957
Southern Oregon conference all
star football squad.
They were among six Grants
Pass players chosen to the first
team. Five Medford high gnd
ders completed the No. 1 line
up. Medford selections were Guard
Tom Merton and Center Jim
Funston, both near unanimous
choices,- and End Tom Hamlin,
Tackle Tom Morris and Back
Bob Gee. Grants Pass gridmen
picked included Guard Wendell
Winterbottom, Tackle Jerry Put
nam and Backs Jack Dean and
Mike Rose.
Sparlin Is the only repeater
from the 1956 all-star first
eleven. Merton was named on
the second team last season.
Coaches, sportswriters and
sportscasters in the conference
cities cast ballots in the poll.
Tabulation was by the Mail Tri
bune sports department. Fifteen
ballots were sent out and 13
men responded to participate in
the poll.
12 on Second Team
Twelve gridmen were placed
on the second team, three from
Medford and two each from
Grants, Pass, Klamath Falls,
Crater and Ashland. Twenty
eight others received honorable
mention.
Points were given on a basis
of two for a first team vote
and one for a second team ballot.
At least two points were required
for honorable mention.
Smith and Sparlin each re
ceived 26 points. Merton and
Funston each gained first team
vote of 12 participants in the
poll and the second club vote
of one for 25 points. Gee polled
next highest with 22 and Hamlin
and Dean each had 20.
Voting for first team berths
was close only at the tackle
positions and for one of the
guard spots. Twelve men were
named on the second line-up be
cause. Charles Carlson, Klamath
Falls, and Dick Caldwell, Grants
Pass, tied for the center assign
ment. The 1957 all-star first team is
not a hefty line-up so far as
high school clubs go but has
medium weight along with mo
bility. Linemen average 176
pounds and backs 167. In the
line, Funston, Medford's defen
sive standout, is heaviest at 202
pounds and Winterbottom of the
Cavemen lightest at 161. Rose
of the Grants Pass backfield trio
is heftiest ball packer at 182.
Dean's weight is listed at 156
and Gee's and Smith's at 165
each.
An all-around offensive threat
is boasted in the line-up. Smith
and Sparlin were outstanding as
passer and receiver. Dean and
Rose were the top rushers for
Grants Pass and Gee, a work
horse, was No. 2 in Black Tor
nado totals. Dean has speed. Rose
power and Gee both qualities.
Smith also is a capable runner.

In Pro Frays
By EARL WRIGHT
United Press Sports Writer
Coach Jim Lee Howell be
lieves his New York Giants are
under the most pressure in their
stretch duel with the Cleveland
Browns.
"You have to figure we are
under a bit more pressure right
now than the Browns because
they lead us by a half game and
have already beaten us this year"
Howell said.
But Howell maintains his Na
tional Football league titlehold

tion like champions.

two more games before their

play after being out since the
second game with a shoulder in
jury.

only Cardinal who may not play
at Cleveland. Tommy O'Connel,
the league's leading passer, and
defensive back Warren Lahr of
the Browns were injured during
last Sunday's 45-31 victory over
the Los Angelej Rams and may
not play. Milt Plum would re
place O'Connell and Bobby Free
man would take Lahr's place.
The Baltimore Colts, leading
Detroit and San Francisco by
