12 MAIL TRIBUNE, tfedforj, Oregon, Friday. October 10, 1958 Tornado, Comets Grid Rivalry Here It's "crosstown rivalry" to night on the Medford High gridiron with the Black Tor nado entertaining its nearest Class A-l adversary, the Cra ter Comets of Central Point. Game time in this Southern Oregon conference and Dis trict 6 scuffle is 8 p.m. Medford, No. 2 rated among the preps of Oregon, aims to launch its league slate im pressively. Crater, unranked and unheralded, has some thing else in mind a stirring, rousing upset. ' The Black Tornado, with victories behind it over a cou pie of rated foes and with more depth of gridiron talent, is the favorite this evening, but the Comets are prepared for iron men efforts. "Even though they know the odds against them, I think they're going to give them a battle," Coach Leonard Warren of the Comets stated. He said that Crater spirit is high and that the team is "as ready as it's going to be." Medford Serious In Medford, Coach Fred Spiegelberg has brought out that the Tornado is not taking this fracas lightly. He pro nounced the Big Wind squad in generally good shape ex cept for a few ailments, most of them minor. The mentor reported that sophomore Dick Ragsdale may have the starting call at left halfback in place of Gerry Lyons, who suffered a shoul der injury in the Marshfield tangle. Lyons has had no con tact work all week. End Jer ry Anderson is a doubtful starter because of a touch of flu and Lowell Dean may have first call on offense. Medford matches a multi ple but basically single wing offense against tha T of Qra ter. The Black Tornado has ball packing threats in Ron Reich, Skip, Bennett and Lyons, and passers in the per sons of Ragsdale and Lyons. With an attack similar in style to Marshfield's, the Com ets have good runners in Bob Fowler, Allen Barnes, Ker roan Bennett and Loyal Hig- inbotham, and good passing with Wayne Allen on the throwing end. Medford and Crater High and McLoughlin and Hedrick Junior High bands and Med ford and Crater pep groups will combine to entertain at the game with the halftime presentation having an Ore gon Centennial theme.
