Tonight, Crater Saturday
Don Peek, veteran senior
guard, is slated to make his
first start for the Medford
Black Tornado this evening
when the local prepsters vie
at Klamath Falls in a South
ern Oregon conference basket
ball game. " ,
A regular last year, Peek
was delayed in getting into
shape this season by appen
dectomy. He had the opera
' tion the first week he turned
out for hoop practice after a
long football season. In the
last couple of weeks he has
shown consistency and spark
in drills and his fire, floor
leadership and experience
were elements in the Tornado
triumph over Grants Pass last
week end.
After playing Klamath to
night the Medford club come
home for a Saturday night
league skirmish with Crater
on the Hedrick Junior high
Earl Blaik
Lonely End
Secret Told
By TIM MORIARTY
New York-JUPD-College foot
ball's best kept secret - how
does Army's "lonely end" re
ceive his signals-was divulged
for the first time Thursday
night by its creator, Earl
(Red) Blaik.
The Cadets outgoing head
coach let the cat out of the
bag during an off-the-cuff
speech before members of the
Touchdown club of New
York, who honored him "for
his long and meritorious serv
ice to college football" at
their silver anniversary din
ner.
The 61-year-old coach ex
plained how end Bill Carpen
ter always knew what play
quarterback Joe Caldwell had
called.
"If you recall. Caldwell al
ways had a towel attached
to his pants," Blaik said. "He
would take the . towel and
massage it before each play.
All he was doing was wiping
his hands. His hands per
spired a lot.
"But if you watched Cald
well closely-and a lot of peo
. pie did-you noticed for ex
ample when lined up facing
' the huddle, his two feet were
, in different position. If his
f feet were parallel-or in a
closed stance-it meant a run.
If his left foot was forward,
it also meant a run. But if
his right foot was forward,
; it meant a pass.
"All you had was a pass or
'run, and there you have it."
Blaik then went on to ex
plain that additional informa
' tion was transmitted to the
, lonely end by another man,
advising the end which route
' to take downfield on each
: play. These signals were
; transmitted by a player touch
ing his helmet, rubbing his
nose -or grabbing his jersey.

Medford eyes a big oppor
tunity this week end that
of taking over the league
leadership. Coach Frank Roe
landt pronounced his Tornado
squad in good physical shape
and said "I just hope we are
ready." In addition to Peek,
he'll likely start Jerry An

a chance to get back into the
chase, have had run-shoot-run
drills this week. The mentor
indicated that Crater has
worked to strengthen its back
board play. Dave Sharp, who
has been starting for Crater,
has been on the sick list.

Archie-Ray
Tilt Sought
New York -UPD Promoter
Teddy Brenner sought the
lush Archie Moore-Ray Rob
inson title fight today because
of a threatened breach be
tween Sugar Ray and the In
ternational Boxing club.
Brenner, promoter of the
Monday night fights at St.
Nicholas Arena, said, "I want
that match. It'll draw a mil
lion dollars at Yankee Sta
dium. Middleweight champion
Robinson angrily disclosed
Thursday night that he is bat
tling the IBC over movie
money from his last two title
bouts with ex-champion Car
men Basilio.
He said the IBC figures for
his end were "ridiculous,"
and that if he didn't get his
proper share, he would bring
suit against the IBC and Unit
ed Artists, the distributor.
"The IBC was supposed to
be protecting me and Basilio
in this movie matter," he ex
plained tartly. "And now, if
I find for sure they haven't
protected us, I'll never fight
for Truman Gibson and the
IBC again."
Don Jordan
Halts Rival
Los Angeles -flJPD- Don Jor
dan's manager disclosed plans
for the lanky champion's next
non-title bout today, but
hedged on whether the Ge
ronimo Kid will duck out on
a contracted rematch with
former champion Virgil
Akins.
Bespectacled Don Nesseth,
elated over Jordan's impres
sive third round knockout of
Alvaro Gutierrez Thursday
night, said the 24-year-old
champion will appear in an
over - the - weight 10-rounder
sometime next month in Oak
land, Calif.
Referee Mushy Callahan
ended Jordan's first start as
champion at 1:35 of the third
when Gutierrez' manager,
Lupe Sanchez, leaped into the
ring to save his fighter from
unnecessary punishmeritl
Taylor, Doug Forrest, Jim
Bjork, Clark Smith and Bob
Johnson. However, Taylor is
still getting over a bum ankle
and is not expected to be used
just sparingly. Bob Hardy
and Steve Gray could see
quite a bit of duty. Iba said
the Grizzlies have been work
ing a little better, this week.
For Grants Pass Jerry Put
nam, Rex Benner, John Ol
son, Dick Hayes and Mike
Leonard may be starters with
Rick Sabin possibly seeing a
lot of service. Big John Fox,
a regular and top rebounder,
hurt his knee in the Medford
game last week end. Whether
he'll play any at all- this
week was not learned here.

to lead the Medford high

Pam Springs, Calif. - (UPD
-Collegians, once a rarity in
the field of professional golf,
were in the lead as the second
round of the $15,000 Thunder
bird invitational tournament
got under way today.
Paul Harney, Holy Cross,
and Jim Ferree, North Caro

stroke lead over the field after
five-under-par ; 66's Thursday.
In one of the most closely
bunched fields in PGA his

deadlocked only one
stroke off- the pace at 67. They
were: Arnold Palmer, - Bob

Has Chance
Chicago -(DPI)- Minnesota's
suprpising Gophers get their
first opportunity to become
the sole pace-setter in Big Ten
basketball and enjoy the role
at least during the current
annual lull for semester
exams.
The steady Gophers, who
have moved gradually and
unexpectedly into a four-way
tie for the lead, meet Michi
gan State Saturday and take
on Illinois in their second
big chance on Monday night.
The Gophers will have the
home court advantage in both
games.
A victory Saturday night
would topple the Spartans
from a share of 'first place,
leaving the Gophers with a
4-1 record and the Spartans
with a 3-2 slate.
Illinois and Michigan also
share the lead with the Go
phers and Spartans. But Mich
igan is idle and the Illini are
scheduled for non-league hos
tilities against Notre Dame
in a Chicago stadium clash.

Lee Harmon
In Triumph
Moscow, Idaho - (UPD. -Ore
gon State's Lee Harman
scored 33 points Thursday
night to lead the Beavers to
an 87-84 win over the Idaho
Vandals in a Pacific Coast
Conference basketball game
here.
The win gave the Oregon
ians a 3-3 mark and put them
in a tie for fourth in the loop
race. And since every team in
the league has lost at least
twice, the win was a key one
for the Beavers' title hopes.
Oregon State faces cellar
dwelling Washington State
(1-5) tonight in the only PCC
action. Cage play is compar
tively light in the West dur
ing the next two week ends
since many schools are hold
ing midterm examinations.
The 87 points were the
highest ever made by Oregon
State in a conference game.
Its previous record was 84 in
1947 against Washington.
Harman's 33 points tied his
personal career high, equaled
against Iowa at Corvallis in
December.
The six-foot guard handled
most of the scoring for the
Beavers in the last six minutes
and pulled OSC ahead after
the Vandals had knotted the
game 80-80 with two minutes
remaining.
Harman scored five points
on free throws to ice the
game.
The Vandals, however,
pressed OSC through three
quarters of the contest and
tied the score four times. On
three other occasions they
were trailing by only one
point and late in the game
led 78-74 before Haitian led
the Beavers back..
The Beavers used a full
court press in the- first half,
but discarded it until late-in
game when they stalled the
Vandals with an effective
zone.
Idaho lost four of its five
starters in the last seven min
utes on fouls and played the
game out with three third
stringers.
Vandal forward John
Liveious and guard Whaylon
Coleman topped V a n d a 1
scorersWith 22 each.
In a key PCC tussle Satur
day, Washington will meet
Oregon. The game should tell
whether the Huskies (3-3) are
really on the comeback trail
after a disappointing start, or
whether the team's high pre
season ratings were unjusti
fied. "
