Tornado Hopes To Capitalize
On Advantages Against Bucs
Marshfield's rampaging Buc
caneers will have the favored
role when they go against the
Medford high football forces
here on Friday night. But, the
press at least three advant
ages in gunning for an upset
against Oregon's No. 2 rated
prep contingent.
These bolstering factors to
the Medford cause are a
home field and home crowd,
its single wing offense and its
status as the underdog.
Familiar home surround
ings and the support of a par
tisan crowd are a boost to any
effort. And, the Pirates of
Coos Bay, after three one
sided triumphs, have their
first ruckus of 1958 away
from home. Also, when the 8
p.m. kickoff occurs Marsh
field will be up against a
single king attack lor the first
time this season. Only a
couple of Pirate stalwarts
have been tested under fire
against this type of offense.
Prestige Battle
No conference or -district
laurels are at stake in the
Medford-Marshfield brush but
it still shapes up as one of
the big games of the season
with tremendous prestige at
stake.. Pollsters rate Medford
No. 3 behind the Pirates.
The Black Tornado finished
up its strenuous drills of the
week with a long workout
yesterday. A lot of time was
spent on team defense. Med-
fordites worked at breaking
up anticipated Marshfield
pass plays. They then turned
to offense which emphasized
their own passing attack and
they ran their attack with
dummy scrimmage. .
Heat of the day made the
drill a little tougher but
Coach Fred Spiegelberg said
the crew showed a good spirit
and hustle. T think we can
get across their goal line,'
he remarked.
But the question still re
mains, and will be answered
only on Friday, as to whether
the Medford defenses can stop
the well-round T offensive of
Coach Pete Susick's Pirates
which seems to click both on
the ground and on the air.
Little Change
Spiegelberg indicated lit
tle change in likely starters
from the Tornado's past two
encounters. Probables on of
, f ense are Jerry Anderson and
Pete Rasmussen, ends; Monte
Penwell and Don Harrison,
tackles; George Ice and John
Frohnmayer, guards; Dennis
Barr or Pat McLaughlin, cen
ter; Bob Pond, quarterback;
Gerry Lyons, left half; Ron
Reich, right half, and Skip
Bennett, fullback.
For defense it may be Den
nis Jensen and Anderson,
ends; Gary Winetrout and
Harrison, tackles; Mike Mur
toy and Gary Heath, guards;
fe.1 ' Funston and Jim Clark,
linebackers; Ron Reich and
Cal Dean, guards, and Don
Peek, safety.
Marshfield's offense gang
could be Kenneth Johnson
and Marvin Harris, ends;
Tom Erdmann and Dick Kent,
tackles; Harry and Jan Kel
ley, guards; Gene Jenkins,
center; Bob Burke, quarter
back; Walt Hunter, left half;
Gary Rossi, right half, and
Les Golbeck, fullback.
On defense likelies are
Haris and Johnson, ends;
Norm Brewer and Cecil Par
ker, guards; Erdmann and
Kent Morris, tackles; Jenkins
and Kent, linebackers and
Golbeck, Hunter and Rossi,
backs.

Jerry Jerome in Fortieth
Season as Time Man for
Medford Football Games
Of the hundreds of m$n
who have been associated
wi.h Medford High school
over the many years of its
sports history, no one has
earned so many red stripes
for his black sweater as has
E. C. (Jerry) Jerome.
Jerry, although a player in
his younger days, didn't gain
his stripes for gridiron feats
for the Black Tornado. Yet,
he was a familiar figure on
the field of battle for many
years. Today, he operates
from a seat high above the
turf.
When Medford met North
Salem here earlier this
month, Jerome began his 40th
season as timekeeper for
Tornado football games.
For most of the seasons
Jerry performed his duties
with stopwatch and pistol on
the field. Since the electric
scoreboard has been in oper
ation, his workplace is the
pressbox, where, he admits
the view is better for follow
ing the fortunes of the Med-
fordites.
Same Equipment
But Jerome still has his
pistol and stopwatch for
emereencv service. And, he
reports, they are the same
equipment with which he
began in 1919.
Twelve coaches-have guid
ed the football helm of Med
ford High in the years that
Jerome has been the clock
man. In 1919 the tutor -was
Heine Heidenreich. Otto
Klum followed in 1920, Hol
lis Huntington in 1921 and
Dr. Edwin Durno in 1922.
From 1923 through 1928,
Prince (Prink) Callison men
tored the gridiron "Terrors
of the 20s."
Muddell Hasen was coach
in 1929 and Darwin K. Burg
her served from 1930 through
1934. Longest as head coach
was Bill Bowerman, 1935
through 1941 and 1946
through 1947. Lome Arnold
tutored in 1942 and 1943 and
Al Simpson in 1944 and 1945.
Lee Ragsdale had the helm
in 1948 through 1951, and
Fred Spiegelberg, present
coach, assumed head duties
in 1952.
1928 Team Tops
In addition to keeping time
for Medford home games,
Jerome has seen the biggest
share of Tornado contests on
rival fields. He says he has
missed just six Medford grid
encounters in the 40 seasons.
Mail Tribue records indicate
more than 325 Tornado
games over the years up to
this fall, with the Medford
clubs winning 240 or more,
losing some 62 and tying 25.
Bowerman clubs won 57,
Callison teams 44 and Burg
her and Spiegelberg elevens
35 each.- Callison crews lost
to only one high school foe,
Salem, and were tied by one,
Ashland.
Jerome lists Callison's
mythical state champions of
1928 as Medford High's all
time greatest team. This club
was undefeated in eight
games and downed The
Dalles 42 to 0 and Benson of
Portland 39 to 0 for state
honors. Jerry recalls that
The Dalles had not been
scored on for three years.
Medford ran up 312 points to
opponents' 32 that season
with no club scoring more
than one touchdown against
it.
All-Time All-Stars
Five members of the 1928
team are among Jerome's se
lections on an all-time Med
ford High all-star eleven. His
all-star choices and the years
they graduated or finished
their prep careers are: Ber
nie Hughes (1929), center;
Jack Hughes (1929) and Har-
Sabre Jels Set
Hawaii Speed Mark
Honolulu-UPD-A pair of Air
Force F100 Super Sabre jet
fighters set an unofficial flight
speed record Wednesday by
flying from McClelland Air
Force Base, Sacramento,
Calif., to Hickham Field here
in 4 hours, 19 minues and 45
seconds.
The leader, Capt. Robert C
Vickery, Birmingham, Ala.,
touched down one minute
ahead of Lt. Jerome W.
Klingaman, Primghar, Iowa.
Both cracked the existing
record of 4 hours, 32 minutes
set earlier by another F100.
' JERRY JEROME
Keeps Time 40th Year
ley Dressier (1925), guards;
Bill Morgan (1929) and Neil
Plumley (1957), tackles; Red
McDonald (1929) and Bill
Bowerman (1929), ends; Dick
McLaughlin (1956), quarter
back; Bob Watson (1946) and
Jack Morris (1950), halfbacks,
and Bernie Senn (1927), full
back. Eddie Demmer (1928) is
recognized by Jerome as Med
ford's all-time greatest punt
er. He kicked the '.'old pun
kin" (old type ball) consist
ently 50 to 60 yards, Jerry re
ports. Timekeeping can have its
hazards and Jerome gives an
incident at Klamath Falls as
an example. He was helping
the Klamath timer. In those
days when a substitute
stepped on the field, time
was automatically out. In this
particularly case, a Klamath
man went on the field with
only about 10 seconds left to
play. Both timers stopped
their watches. This gave
Medford time to score a win
ning touchdown. The Klam
ath partisans nearly mobbed
the two timekeepers.
Various Occupations
Jerome, who played high
school football at Crookston,
Minn., and pro baseball there
in the Northern league, came
to Medford in 1910. He was
first with Prospect Construc
tion company, which built
Prospect No. 1, first dam on
the Rogue river,' and then
with Condon Light and Pow
er company, which eventual
ly became California Oregon
Power company.
He has been an assistant
manager here for Standard
Oil, has been in the tire busi
ness and has had the Texaco
agency. Before retirement he
was with radio station
KMED.
He was a field man for the
Shasta - Cascade Wonderland
at the 1939 San Francisco
world's fair and was appoint
ed chairman by Gov. Julius
Meier for the Oregon Dia
mond Jubilee . celebration
here in 1934.
Jerry received his sweater
at 1943 football game presen
tation. It honored his 25th
year as timekeeper and had
stripes on the left sleeve cor
responding to those years of
service. Stripes have been
added on the other sleeve
since then. The presentation
was by Frank Perl, ex-Med-ford
High gridder and a long
time booster of the school.
Civil Service
For Police Eyed
Portland (UPD State Sen.
G. D. Gleason, Portland
Democrat, said today he will
introduce a bill at the next
Legislature to put state po
lice under civil service
Gleason's statement was the
latest in a storm of contro
versy that has. arisen over
charges by State Rep. Rich
ard Groener, Milwaukee
Democrat, that state police
have been placed on a
"quota" system for traffic
arrests.
Gleason called the alleged
quota pressure "reprehen
sible.". He also said H. G. Mai
son, superintendent of state
police, "is opposed to civil
service."
Meanwhile, patrolman Rob
ert Wampler received notice
he is to appear before a dis
ciplinary board in Salem Oct.
14. Wampler said one charge
stated he discussed his grie
vances "in a manner dis
respectful to his superior of

Defense against single wing
offense has also been a prac
tice activity here.
53 Candidates
Eagle tutor Tom Van Etten
has been heartened by the
large turnout of 53 grid aspir
ants and the play of a number
of jayvees who earned the
right to suit with the varsity
with a 13 to 0 win over Rogue
River jayvees on Monday. The
Eagle camp also reported that
Bob Berryman has been bid
ding strong for a backfield
starting post.
In the JV mix Steve Geren
scored a touchdown on a 50
yard run and Elvin Hawkins
on a 20-yard romp. Hawkins
passed to Steve Carroll for
the bonus. Passing of Tom
Perdue, running of Geren
and the defensive work of
Paul Evers and Roy Moore
were highlights.

Boy's Body Found
In Michigan Wilds
Iron Mountain, Mich. -&TD-The
body of 4-year-old Ken
neth Scott, who disappeared
Sunday in the bear-infested
wilderness north of her, was
found today by an Air Force
helicopter.
The body was sighted by a
'copter pilot from the K. I.
Sawyer Air Force base at
Marquette. The pilot landed to
recover the body from a spot
about IV2 miles southeast of
the hunting camp from which
Kenneth wandered away.
It was not immediately
known how long the boy had
been dead or what caused
his death.
Discovery of the body
came shortly after two of the
nation's best bloodhounds
were flown - here from The
Dalles, Ore., to join in the last
ditch search for the child.

hunting '& fishing
Southern Oregon
By MEL
With the largest steelhead
runs in the river for many
years good success is being
had by fishermen all along
the river. The lower river in
the Gold Beach-Agness area is
reported very hot for flies
and flash lures. One angler
fly fishing the Marial section
reported 15 steelhead hit his
flies in one day's fishing.
The Galice portion has been
paying off well with flies, Mo
tos and Hotshots. Guides say
there are plenty of fish all
through this area. The part
of the river from Grants Pass
to Hells Gate has slowed some
what since a week ago but
there are big runs reported
below Rainey falls and it is
expected that these fish will
be in the upper river very
soon.
DRIFTING TRICKY
The river is very low and
clear which makes drifting
a tricky business. The fish
seem io be lying in the
deeper holes and in the fast
riffles where there are
ledge rocks. In a day's drift
last week we hit three of
them near Robertson bridge,
two were in the fast water
and one in the deeper slack-ed-out
water of a long hole.
NATURAL SWING BEST
Talking with a veteran
guide the other day brought
out some interesting facts con
cerning methods of fishing at
this time of season. He said
that most anglers make a mis
take in fishing lures from a
boat by. "dinging" around
with the lure instead of let
ting it take natural swings
and drifts with the boat.
He recommended letting out
from 40 to 80 feet of line and
pointing the rod directly at
the lure and leaving it
there! The average fisherman,
he said, has the tendency to
keep raising the rod tip and
this produces an unnatural
motion to the lure or fly. He
also pointed out that with a
bent rod there is too much
give when the fish takes the
hook and this allows him to
shake it more times than not.
Monofilament line, which is
generally used, has enough
stretch to take care of any
sudden strike. After the
strike the rod tip can be
raised to take the strain off
the line and the fish then
played with the tip held high.
In the case of fishing flies,
the angler should ignore the
nibbles of trout. Many times
it is pointed out, the steel
head will lie there watching
the fly as the trout nibble at
it. In fact this attracts the
bigger fish and many times
after a series of nibbles there
will come the smashing strike
of the steelie. This has been
prpven enough times to be
accepted as a fact.
GUESSING CONTEST
Saw an amazing thing the
other day. In a local sport
shop1 there was a large jar.
about 6 gallon size I should
say. In it were all kinds and
sizes of shells from the
little .22 io shotgun shells.
It turned out to be a guess
ing contest pul on by Peters
ammunition ' company in
which they are giving awy
some very valuable guns
for the nearest guess as to
how many shells are in the
. jar.
The thing that intersted
me is the utter impossibility
of trying io figure out how
many of these cartridges

An army of gunners have
already headed for the hills
and the opening of the deer
season. From all indications
this promises to be a good
year for the deer hunter. Field
biologists say there was a
good crop of fawns this year
and the deer are in prime
condition.
DUBIOUS INTEREST
Of dubious but vital in
terest to many deer hunt
ers is the news of the 900.
000 acres of private and
forested lands in the very
heart of mule deer country
near Prineville have been
incorporated into a new
self - managing program of
game management and con
servation. There is a slight (?)
charge of $25 per head io
hunt in this territory. This
charge is to go for patrol
work. If. say 1,000 hunters
choose to take (advantage)
of this layout. I would say
thai $25,000 would make a
juicy patrol! Who knows,
maybe we here on the
Rogue river can someday
charge these ranchers $25
per to fish our river!
