McLoughlin Ninth Grade Tips Crater Denied a score on their first effort of the afternoon, the McLoughlin Junior High ninth graders used a punt re turn in the middle of the first quarter to start the touch downing in a 27 to 13 football victory ' yesterday over the Crater freshmen. Jim Dexter faked a hand off ' to Bob Schroeder, then ambled about 60 yards down the sideline to pay dirt. Good blocking enabled him to get away. Crater tied up the fuss in the early second quarter with a pass for 25 yards, Gil Harri son to Chuck Cavin and con version by Jim Fowler. Then Mac drove to the Comet four yard line with some nice run ning by Dan .Goghill and George Clearwater. Pexter scored from there. The Bulldogs struck again in the third quarter. Steve Kehoe packed the mail from 40 yards out. In the fourth panel Rex Nicodemus circled end and ran 15 yards for a touchdown. Fowler got the second TD for Crater, going three yards on a dive play. Huffman, on a pass from Clearwater and Dexter and Nicodemus converted for Mac. Fowler was top defensive man for the Comets while Monte Jones, Joe Griffin, Merle Guches, Larry Plank enhorn and Kehoe drew par ticular praise for chores for the Bulldogs. tors' pick as the Central Point school wraps up its 1958 slate. Comparative scores can't always be relied on in fore casting a winner. But the scores and game statistics are about the only tangibles to pickers have to go on. And, Crater is the "upperdog" on the basis of play within the conference. The Comets bowed to Grants Pass 26 to 7 and to Medford 26 to 0 in District 6A-1. Klamath fell before GP 32 to 0 and before the Black Tornado 53 to 0. In scrimmage yardage Cra ter gained 258 against Grants Pass and yielded 286 net to the Cavemen while Klamath netted only 44 against GP and were pushed back for 378. Against Medford, Crater got 128 yards to the Tornado's 350. Klamath, meeting the Tornado compiled a 78 net and gave up 443. In nbn league play Klamath defeated South Eugene 12 to 7, a team which later lost 25 to 0 to Cottage Grove. Crater downed Cottage Grove 19 to 0. Crater has run up 152 points in seven games this season to 123 for rivals. Klam ath in seven has compiled only 25 markers while rivals have totaled 198. The Comets had their final practice of the fall yesterday and made it a session of fun as well as work and they went through pass patterns and signal drill. The drill was dismissed early. Crater will meet a Klamath crew battered up by injuries but should be in pretty good shape itself. Coach Leonard Warren said that he thought defensive end Derell William son, who suffered a knee in jury in the Ashland game, will be able to play. For the Comets the tangle means the difference between a winning season and a break even one. Crater has four wins and three losses so far this season and also needs a victory tonight to come out even in league play. The Cen tral Pointers are 1-2 jnthe circuit. SPORTSCASTS KYJC-8 p.m. Friday.

Eagles Scrap Chieftains; Phoenix Goes to Henley Rogue league gridders com plete their regular loop sched ule this week end. Eagle Point will be at Rogue River' high this eve ning and Phoenix at Henley on Saturday at 1:30 p.m. The Eagles are heavily fa vored to bounce the cellarite Chiefs and to claim the Rogue banner with five victories and no losses. Henley, hoping, nevertheless, for an Eagle set back, will go into its conflict knowing whether or not it is still in the running for a con ference co-title. Henley has lost only to Eagle Point in the circuit. Earlier in the campaign Henley would have been the favorite. But Phoenix has come along fast recently and the fray can now be regarded as a toss up. Coach Jack Woodward has pronounced the Phoenix Pi rates in good shape for the effort to spoil the Hornet homecoming. The Pirates have had little scrimmage this week but there's been a lot of individual contact work. Pass defense has had some atten tion. The usual Pirate, starting team is expected to take the field first but the second unit should see quite a bit of serv ice. Likely starters are Dave Barlow and Don Korth, ends; Jim Martin and Jack Rinn, tackles; Ronald Baker and Jack Hoffbuhr, guards; Gor don Caster, center, and Gerald Sloper, Leon Small, Dan Lum ley and Mike Consbruck, backs In the other unit are Othar Richey, Roy Lester, Doug James, Joe Colfax, Les Baker, Dick Lorton and Melvin Bush nell. linemen, and George Hand, Gary Colfax and Mike Reese, backs. If Eagle Point wins as ex pected tonight, it takes Dist rict 6 A-2. southern division unchallenged and will meet either Myrtle Creek or Suth erlin for the full district mantle.
