The bid for Oregon Class
A-l's highest football laurels,
a contest between the state's
second and third ranked pow
ers, the intensity of a tradi
tionally strong and spirited
rivalry, a second meeting of
the year between the Black
Tornado and the Pirates .
Those spices add flavor to the
battle.
Semi-Final Berth
Winner will move on into
the state semi-finals against
Pendleton and North Salem
who vie Saturday at Salem.
Marshfield is the District 5
titlist and Medford co-holder
in District 6.
How do Medford's Tornado
(No. 2) and Marshfield's Buc
caneers (No. 3) compare? Go
back six weeks for an answer.
In a tremendous, tense, bruis
ing battle of defense, the Pi
rates had the yardage edge
and Medford got the only
score. With Bob Pond holding,
Mike Murray kicked a field
goal in the early stages of the
game. Then the Black Tor
nado stopped three major
Marshfield threats to preserve
a 3-0 nod and its first triumph
over the Bucs in 11 years.
"Marshiieia has come a
long way since that October
eame," a Pirate backer de
clared this week. So has the
Black Tornado. And offense,
despite prospects for a soggy
field, could be the feature Fri
day.
Medford may not have Mur
ray and the services of his
educated shoe. A victim of
the flu, he ran a high tem
perature for several days and
is not expected to suit down
Friday. He was not yet back
in school today.
Wide Open Offense
The Pirates, who now need
no introduction io jvieaiora
fans, have been termed basic
ally a younug team but are
not much more so than the
Tornado. Marshfield's offen
sive aggregation is lighter
than others fielded at Coos
Bay in other past recent years.
Yet, it still has good back
field weight and any lack of
overall heft is offset by a
quick-moving, wide open T
formation game.
The Bucs run the gamut of
the T with crossbucks, op
tions, pitchouts, belly series
and veer plays. And, with
their rushing, sparked by
Walt Hunter, Gary Rossi and
Les Godbeck, the Pirates of
CB combine the aerial throw
ing of Bob Burke.
Medford will try to more
than match its explosive op-
position with its multiple at
tack, molding single wing
crunching power with the
eruptive elements of a T as
sault. The Tornado will have
Skip Bennett, Gerry Lyons,
Ron Reich, Ken Durkee, Dan
ny Sieg and Len Griggs pack
ing the pighide with Bob
Pond, Lyons and Durkee the
air game threats.
Bucs Have Weight
Marshfield generally will
have a per-man weight advan
tage on the Black Tornado.
Medford's offensive unit aver
aging 173 pounds will go
against a Marshfield defensive
crew balancing at 185 per
man. Tornado defense with an
average of 174 will attempt to
stop a Buccaneer attacking
gang which boasts 181 pounds
per man.
The Medford offensive line
is 18412 per player compared
to 192 to 220 for the Marsh
field defensive unit. Tornado
defenders, however, average
190 to 190 to 184 for the Pi
rates offensive crew.
. More weight among the
backs provides Marshfield
with- its team average and m
the defensive line most of the
Pirate bulk is centered in one
gridder, 250-pound guard Ce
cil Parker.
In addition to clashing
themselves during regular sea
son action, the Tornado and
the Pirates have met two com
mon foes with like results.
Medford knotted Grants Pass
0-0 and laced Klamath Falls
53-0. The Bucs were held to
6-6 by the GP Cavemen and
thumped Klamath 47 to 0.
Records Told
Marshfield, loser only to
Medford in non league play,
disposed of Springfield 26-21,
South Eugene 34-0, Roseburg
27-0. and North Bend 28-13
in its Midcoast conference.
The Pirates also battered
Hillsboro 39 to 7 and Sweet
Home 48 to 7.
Tornado record is marred
only by the tie with Grants
Pass. It tripped Crater 26
0, Ashland 27-0 and Klamath
Falls in other Southern Ore
gon contention and topped
North Salem 21 to 7, David
Douglas 10 to 0 and Eureka,
Calif., 33-0.
Only North Salem, and it
for one lone touchdown, has
crossed the Tornado goal this
fall. Marshfield has given up
eight TDs but only Springfield
and North Bend among other
than Medford scoring foes

offensive and defensive units
with the possibility of some
interchange. Five prospective
starters for the Pirates play
both ways.
Possible offensive starting
eleven for Medford is Lowell

ends: Don Harrison and Monte

Dennis B'arr, center, ' Bob

Hank Windell. Goldbeck and

Murrav almost surely
out, McLaughlin takes over
his spot at Medford's middle
guard and Don Harrison will
handle kick-off and place
kicking chores. Lyons has
been running well in Tornado
drills this week but Spiegel-
berg may give first left half
call to Durkee whose running
and passing more than ade
quately filled the gap in the
Ashland and Grants Pass
games.
Defensive tackle Don Mann
is another victim of the flu
but is expected back for
service.
The Tornado wound up its
heavy drills last night, run
ning its offense in dummy
scrimmage, going full blast in
contact passing scrimmage
and then working on defense
until it was too dark to see.

Eddie Perkins
Nips Frank Ryff
Chicago -(UPD- Lightweight
Frankie Ryff, his champion
ship hopes shattered by speedy
Eddie Perkins, shrugged off
blistered feet and a possible
broken hand today and said
he had no plans to abandon
his dream of some day win
ning a boxing crown.
"I've got no alibis for los
ing," he said, "he beat me. I
wasn't as shifty as I usually
am, and when you know
you've got a bad hand, well,
maybe you don't punch the
way you usually do."
Ryff, who lost for the sixth
time in 33 fights, wasn't ef
fective against Perkins, a Chi-
cagoan making his first TV
appearance. The New Yorker
was floored for a two count
by a right hook in the second
round and his handlers
blamed the defeat on that mis
hap
"it wasn't a knockdown,"
his manager, Barney Ross, his
trainer, Whitey Bimstein, and
Ryff himself said. "He got
rcaught with a sucker punch
after a lead and slipped at the
same tirne."
But referee Frank Sikora,
who gave Perkins a 45-44 edge
in scoring, and Perkins' camp
had not doubt of the event.
"It was a good right hook,"
Perkins said, "except it was
just a little high on the head."

signed to a contract for the
coming season, General Man
ager Buzzie Bavasi said today.
Bavasi, also Dodger vice
president, said "in the past
by this time, I've generally
had at least 15 players signed
for the following season."
But the Los Angeles execu
tive was explosively clear at
the end of the last season
that he was unhappy with
the seventh place finish and
some performances.'
Had To Cool
"After we finished seventh,
I was so mad that I didn't
dare discuss contracts until I
cooled off." He said at the
close of the campaign, he
was ready to cut the salaries
of a couple of players by 25
per cent.
"That is as much as the law
allows. And some other fel
lows would have been hurt,
too," he said.
But . Bavasi said this con
trasted with what he called
his reputation as an easy
mark in contract discussions
based on past' years when
the Dodgers were riding high
er than in 1958.

today in the $45,000 Havana
Open-the world's wildest bet
ting golf tournament.
Because gambling is legal
on this sun-drenched island,
the swank Villa Real Club
looked more like a race track
than a golf club for this
unique 72-hole event.
A betting board was set up
on the grounds and listed the
odds of all the competitors.
The minimum bet was S5 and
it was possible to back a
player to finish first, second,
third or fourth. An "across
the board" wager cost $20.
"Snead, although now 46
years old, earned the favor
ite's role on the basis of seve
ral good practice rounds over
the par-70 course. The West
Virginia shotmaker was 4-1 to
win, 2-1 to finish second, even
money to finish third, and 1-2
to nnish fourth.
