Medford's football Black
Tornado roared to an early
touchdown, became an er
rant, sputtering breeze until
early minutes of the second
half then whipped a storming
fury which defeathered the
Klamath Union High school
Pelicans 53 to 0 here Friday
night in a Southern Oregon
conference struggle.
It was the most crushing
blow the Tornado has inflict
ed on the Whitebirds since
the annihilations of 94 to 0
in 1927 and 51 to 0 in 1945.
Medford ran up its fifth
victory of the 1958 campaign
against no losses and tucked
away its second District 6
A-l verdict. Klamath, open
ing its conference slate,
tumbled for the fifth time in
six games this s eason.
Only one did the Pelicans
threaten seriously and Med-
ford's superiority was appar
ent most of the night. But,
after initial scoring march,
the Tornado, trying but tense,
and plagued - by penalties,
fumbles and signal mix-ups,
had trouble jelling its attack
again. Then, after faltering
moments of the third quarter,
the Gale brewed up and there
was no stopping the Big Wind
of Pear valley.
Big Third Quarter
The Tornado got some good
running from a host of backs
and some fine blocking and
whirled to four touchdowns
in the third panel and three
more in the fourth.
Sophomore backs Danny
Sieg and Dick Ragsdale each
gained the end zone twice for
the Medford gang, Sieg on a
10-yard run and 55-yard pass
interception runback and
Ragsdale on a five-yard slash
and again on a poke for in
ches. Skip Bennett goaled on
a one-yard plunge, John Har
vey on a 49-yard pass utter-
ception return, Ken Durkee
on a 47-yard gallop and Cal
vin Dean on a six-yard jog.
Mike Murray thumped the
first five of eight conversion
kick attempts.
Klamath in the early por
tion of the contest appeared
that it might give the Torna
do a spirited tussle. But the
Pels only once had possession
ft Kail incirl tho TVTaH-
ford 47-yard line. That was at
the start of the fourth quar
ter. Tornado halfback Ron
Reich muffed a Pelican punt
and George Vinson of "the
Pels fell on the ball just as
the third canto ended.
Slips Through Fingers -.'
Medford defenders tossed
KF back to the nine and two
plays later gained back to the
seven. On fourth down Jack
Riley heaved a pass to Ron
Olvera. The ball slipped
through the Pel halfback's
fingers and a golden touch
down chance was lost.

punch pay soil. Next Med
ford went 42 yards. It took
six plays. A mix-up cost the
Tornado 11 yards but this
was made up for by two five
yard penalties against the
Pels and a 21-yard run to the
10-yard line by Ragsdale
who finally boomed the last
inches.
Len Griggs Goes 41
After a 16-yard punt re
turn by Peek, Medford was
set back to its 25 by a clip
pling infraction. However,
Leonard Griggs got loose for
41 yards to KF 34. Four plays
later Sieg went the last 10
yards to the pay zone. On
the third Klamath passing at
tempt after this TD, Med
ford's Reggie Breeze busted
up the throw by Riley. Har
vey picked the ball out of
the air and rambled to the
goal 49 yards away. Score
was then 35 to 0.
When the Klamath big
fourth quarter failed, Med
ford fought from its seven
out to the Klamath 47. From
there Durkee slipped around
right end and went all the
way to tally. The Tornado
fumbled away its next time
with the ball but Pel hopes
were again spurned by Sieg's
TD pass interception sprint.
KF gained a first time aft
er the following kick-off but
Sieg fell on a Bob Egge
fumble on the Pelican 43. Len
Griggs gained to the 37 and
Cal Dean to the 27. Griggs
then scooted to the goal on
a reverse but Medford offside
cancelled the play. However,
Griggs went 17 to the 15 and
Dean nine to the six. Dean
crossed the pay-off line from
there.
Jim Clark, Mike Murray,
Gary Winetrout, Gary Heath,
Al Funston, Cal Dean, Dan
Sieg, Lynn Knight and Fred
Funston had big roles in
Medford defense while Gary
Kranenburg, Blake Griggs,
Gary Burt, Gary Hancock
and Estin Kiger had major
contributions in Pel efforts
to stop the Tornado assault.
' Fumble recoveries by Med
fordites were one each by
Fred and Al Funston and one
by Sieg while Al Funston,
Harvey, Sieg and Ragsdale
intercepted . passes. Al inter
cepted another but the catch
was wiped out by a Medford
penalty. Ken Durkee grab
bed another KF aerial but of
ficials said he didn't hold it
long enough. Blake Griggs,
Gary Hancock, Ed Mattmiller
and Vinson of the Pels
pounced on Medford fumbles.

It apparently will take
more than a 10th ranked
team to topple the state's No.
1 prep football squad from
its perch. Jefferson of Port
land Friday night walked
over Madison, 41-0, leaving
its win streak at 17 games.
Roseburg's Indians edged
North Bend, 27-20, in another
state prep . headliner. Rose
burg is sixth-ranked in the
state, while North Bend is
No. 3.
Second place iMedford had
no trouble with Klamath
Falls and humiliated the Peli
cans, 53-0. Marshfield, No.
defeated' Springfield, 26-21.
West Linn, which is tied with
North Salem in seventh posi
tion, lost to McMinnville, 18
16V4. But North Salem hum
bled Bend, 28-0.
Baker came through its
contest with Hermiston, 33-12
to back up its ninth-rated po
sition and Grants Pass, tied
with Madison in 10th place,
dumped Ashland, 33-7.

the circuit are out of the
chase.
Illinois Valley held Eagle
Point scoreless in the first
quarter but the Eagles head
ed 12 to 0 at the half and 19
to 6 at the third intermission
and salted up the clash with
three scores in the final panel.
19 to 0 at Quarter
Phoenix rode to triumph
on long runs and long passes.
The Pirates had a 19 to 0
bulge at the quarter and were
ahead 25 to 0 at halftime.
Third quarter count was 44 to
0.
Bill Skeeters went three
yards for the opening Eagle
Point marker and Bill Turner
traveled 22 for the next one.
In the - third session with
Steve Charters providing a
key block, "Turner ran 70
yards and Skeeters followed
with the extra point. Illinois
Valley got the ball on the EP
eight-yard line in the third
quarter when Dave Huffman
was unable to punt because
of a bad center snap. Dan
Slanaker went the eight to the
end zone for IV.
Bill McClure had a scoring
run of 32-yards and Dusty
Gerbing ran 13 and 30 yards
for touchdowns. Bob Berry
man and Tom Perdue tallied

yards to the goal for the Cou
gars winding up a 50-yard
shove. . '
The Eagles ran up a total
of 596 yards, although not
throwing one pass.
Consbruck Goes 99
Gerbing ran well as a re
serve fullback and Jim Nease,
a converted fullback playing
at end, adapted well his posi
tion. Steve Charters and Gary
Ayres paced Eagle defense
with 11 tackles each. Grant
Dickey turned in some good
running for IV.
For Phoenix Mike Reese
hurled three touchdown pass
es, for 65 ancf 46 yards to Dan
Lumley and for 55 to Don
Korth.
Freshman Mike Consbruck
roused Pirate fans with a
thrilling 99-yard run after

dash was almost anti-climactic
for Consbruck had scooted 84
yards to the goal on a previ
ous run. He scored also on a
two-yard spin.
Bill Dillree had a 70-yard
scoring run. He hurled to
George Hand for 30 yards and
a touchdown. A David John
