    6 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or., Thunrfjy, November 27. 1958
Pressure Could
in Tornado-Jeff
Pressure. That word and
quality may have an eventful
role on Friday night when the
Medford Black Tornado chal
lenges the Jefferson High
school Democrats for Oregon
prepdom's highest football
laurels, the Class A-1 cham
pionship. Jefferson, which has cut a
wide swath in the state's met
ropolitan area, and Medford
which has earned top recogni
tion through a rugged season
in the regions of the hinter
land, collide at Multnomah
stadium in Portland for the
big school diadem.
Medford seeks a lofty pin
nacle last attained for the lo
cal school in 1944. For the de
fending champion Jefferson-
ians, No. 1 ranked throughout
the season, have been rated as
Oregon's all-time best.
Both schools have put be
hind them impressive seasons
and go into the titular con
flict, a struggle between mul
tiple offenses, with undefeat
ed records. But, while the
Portland Interscholastic
league's standard bearers have
rolled along a smooth and
easy path of almost always
overwhelming triumphs, the
Black Tornado, co-champ of
the Southern Oregon confer
ence, frequently has had to
overthrow strong challenges
of adversity.
Apply to Utmost
That ability to survive and
offset opposing stress and
strain and to apply pressure to
the opposing team a resist
ance and pressure to which
the Democrats are unaccus
tomed will be applied to its
utmost as the Tornado, Big
Wind of southern Oregon, atr
tempts the stunning upset of
the year.
Scores of games this year
depict Jefferson's easy romp
to its second straight A-1 fi
nale and show the rougher
road the Medfordites have had
to travel to gain the pay-off
engagement for the second
time in three years.
Jeffs "toughest" tussle saw
it subdue Lincoln in its open
er 34 to 20. That's the most
one team has scored upon the
Democrats this season. They
have never failed to tally less
than 31 counters. Seven of
their foes have gone scoreless.
In other PIL combats the
Jeffs pounded Roosevelt 47 to
0, Wilson 45 to 12, Washing
ton 48 to 0, Grant 69 to 20,
Madison 41 to 0, Franklin 48
to 6, Benson 54 to 0 and
Cleveland 31 to 0. The Demo
crats went on to whip Wy'east
41 to 6 in state quarter-finals
and West Linn 38 to 0 in a
semi-final game.
Felt Pressure
Medford rolled up some Im
pressive scores, 53 to 0 over
Klamath Falls, 33 to 0 over
Eureka, CaHf., 27 to 0 over
Ashland and 26 to 0 over Cra
ter. But in the Ashland fracas
the Tornado didn't score until
the fourth quarter and against
Crater and Klamath halftime
leads were only 7 to 0.
The Pear capital aggrega
tion felt the pressure greatest
' in the 3 to 0 and 7 to 0 over
Marshfield, its most satisfying
triumphs, in the scoreless tie
with Grants Pass, in , which
the yardage edge gave Med
ford a berth in the A-1 finals,
and in the 27 to 26 semi-final
squeak over Pendleton. Other
Medford verdicts were 21 to
7 over North Salm and 19 to
0 over David Douglas.
It was the non-league 3 to
0 win over Marshfield which
brought home to the Black
Tornado that it was a cham
pionship contender.
Offense vs. Defense
A-1 titular contention has
been billed as a battle of Jef
ferson offense and Medford
defense. Those are qualities
which have characterized the
' clubs through the 1958 cam
paign. But last week's fray
with Pendleton, which dis
nuted Tornado defensive
might, also showed that Med
ford has an offense. And the
Pear city team will have to
utilize this attacking strength
to fulfill its championship as
pirations while trying to stop
the Jeffs who have averaged
45.1 points per game.
Medford, which wants to
make up for a 40 to 19 loss
to Marshfield in the 1958 fi
nale game, and Jefferson,
.which seeks to extend a 22-
game' winning skein for a sec
ond straight banner, both use
combined T and single wing
offenses with unbalanced
lines opening up the way
Both have aerial games but
the Demos have made passes
'a more consistent weapon
Jefferson relied more upon
the T in its West Linn victory
last Friday while Medford
started with the T but turned
: to and stuck to its single wing
against Pendleton's Bucka-
roos.

HEADS 'CLARK'S RAIDERS' OF TORNADO Jim Clark,
above, stellar line-backer for the Medford High school foot
ball aggregation, calls the defensive signals for the Black
Tornado. He'll have that role for the final time for Medford
Friday night when the Tornado tackles the Jefferson Demo
crats, defending champs, at Multnomah stadium in Portland,
for the Oregon Class A-1 toga. Clark is a quarterback in his
rare offensive appearances. He is one of 18 seniors appearing
in grid uniform for the final time for the Tornado. Medford
nipped Pendleton 27 to 26 last week end and Jeff laced West
Linn 38 to 0 in the play-off semi-finals. '
running and passing of Terry
Baker at quarterback and half
has geared the Jeff attack this
fall while Ends Vic Ellis and
Herb Washburn and backs
Mel and Raye, on the catch
ing end, have helped make
the air game click.
Guard Dennis Prozinski,
190-pounder, Jeff's outstand
ing lineman, and Tackle John
Thiess, 195-pound college
prospect, have led the forward
wall.
Medford has had the run
ning of Gerry Lyons, Skip
Bennett and Ron Reich main
ly with Bob Pond and Ken
Durkee doing the aerial
chucking in the late games
this fall. Ends Lowell Dean
and Pete Rasmussen and a va
riety of backs have been on
the receiving end. And the at
tack has moved behind a line
working as a well-balanced
unit.
Chances appeared slimmer
today that Medford defensive
halfback would be able to
play. He suffered an ankle
sprain in the Pendleton game.
Either Jerry Anderson or
Danny Sieg will get the call
at the position if Dean is un
able to play.
The Tornado worked out
this morning and will leave
for Portland by bus at 3 pjn.
today. The team will drive
straight through to the metro
polis.
Jackets Given lo School
Players were to leave
garbed in new black travel
jackets with red and white
sleeves and collar trim. Forty
nine jackets have been pre
sented to the school for such
travel use and are school
property. Donors are Crater

ter, and Rogue Equipment
Sales of Medford, owned by
Wayne Chase. The two firms,
across-the-road neighbors on
North Pacific highway, pur
chased the jackets through co
operation of Mann's Depart
ment store.
Seniors predominate on the
33-man squad which will suit
down from Medford for the
game. Eighteen players are
scheduled to don the Tornado
grid gear for the last time of
their prep careers. These are
Jim Clark, Bob Pond, Gerry

Virginia Military is a narrow
one-point favorite over Vir

Christian game in
Dallas.
Southern M e t h o d i t al
though already beaten four
times this season, will be the
heavy favorite for the bid if
it wins over Southwest con
ference champs TCU.
Tiger Preference
Claude (Monk) Simons,
president of the Mid-Winter
Sports association which srjon-
sors the post-season game, has
already expressed a prefer
ence tor the Tigers-those from
LSU and the Clemson breed.
But he qualifies his Der-
sonal position with the obser
vation that he is only one
man on the Sugar Bowl's 17
man selection committee.
The Washington State Cou
gars were eliminated from
contention from the bid Wed
nesday when Pacific Coast
conference members voted
down WSC's request for a
waiver which would have per
mitted the Cougars to accept
an outside bowl bid.
Clemson lost three games
this season, which on the sur
face appears more impressive
than the SMU showing. But
while Clemson bowed to
South Carolina, SMU got its
lumps from the lifies of Ohio
State, Notre Dame and Rice.
Oddsmakers say the point
spread between the Mustangs
and LSU would be less than
the spread between the Bayou
Tigers and Clemson.
