Vfe DOWNTOWN --- . - - MEDFORD WOMEN'S Leather-Lined HUNTING BOOTS 13.95 Sixes SV-9 8-D Fanfare The following quotation is from the Monday story of Kenn Hess, sports editor of the Coos Bay World: "Just exactly wha' happen' may never be ascertained pre cisely, but it's been a long, long time since the Marshf ield Pirates have been drawn and quartered the way Medford's Black Tornado applied the butcher knife Saturday night. "Coach Fred Spiegelberg's Pear city juggernaut looked every bit potential state A-l champions ... en route to a free scoring victory. "There was simply no stop ping the black-clad knights who swarmed like a plague of locusts over the Coos Bay sta dium turf. Time and again they slashed the Marshfield line to ribbons for sizable chunks of yardage. And when they so elected, they took to the air to riddle the Pirate's porous pass defense. . . . "The loss was the worst pinned on one of Coach Pete Susick's teams since Grants Pass' 1951 - state champions hung a 25-13 defeat on the Pirates. ... "W hen speedsters Mike Hood, Skip Bennett and Dan ny Sieg weren't darting through truck-and-trailer hol es or skirting the ends behind excellent interference, quar terback Dick Ragsdale unlim bered his passing arm. ... "Although the Pirates scor ed three times themselves, they had much more difficul ty doing it." . SPEED AND AGILITY Coach Susick had this comment to make Monday to the Coos Bay Quarter back club: "We just got the H kick ed out of us." The Pirate mentor said, "We still don't know exact ly what really happened and we won't until we gel the pictures back." Concerning Medford, he declared that the Black Tornado has a real fine team with good speed and line agility. Su sick said that in the years Marshfield has played Fred ' Spiegelberg's ' Medford teams, they have never run the multiple offense as well as they did last Saturday. He praised the passing of Dick Ragsdale, said that the Tornado has excellent receiv ers and pointed , out that Medford backs have real good speed.

He reported that Pi rate coaches felt that the de fense which had been planned was sound but that the Torna do bothered more with its sin ble wing that it ever had be fore. Marshfield on defense didn't put the pressure on and didn't have good pursuit, ac cording to Susick. He stated that the fine job Medford did on third down situations got Marshfield in trouble most of the time. RESERVE STRENGTH ROLE Black Tornado reserve strength had its role in the contest, Susick brought out. He said that a few of the Pirates were tired out by the fourth quarter because of the matter of 13 or 14 playing most of the time against 22 or 25. "... I don't think you'll find a belter 25-man squad than Medford has right now." FUMBLE TURNING POINT To Susick, the psychological turning point of the game came when the ball popped out of the arm of Pirate Dick Shanley on about the 20-yard line. Lowell Dean caught the fumble in the air. Eventually, he lateraled . to Ken Durkee and Medford got a touchdown on the play The mentor also mentioned the kick-off fum ble that Medford turned into a touchdown as another de moralizing break against Marshfield. "And, we've al ways maintained the good teams. make their own breaks," Susick added. SWITCH NOTED v Hess of the World report ed - that the game marked the first time since 1947 that six touchdowns have been scored on Marshfield. Ashland won that game 40 to 12. Tony Korieva, Marshfield jayvee mentor, said that the Tornado set the Pirates up by running Ray Konopasek at quarter back with the T against Beav erton then coming back with Ragsdale at QB in the. single wing.

Coach Feels Pittsburgh Has Chance By RUDY CERNKOVIC - Pittsburgh (UPD Coach Buddy Parker has never been recklessly optimistic but he believes his Pittsburgh Steel ers have a good chance to win the National Football league championship this season. But Parker quickly seized on the prerogative of all coaches and added a qualifier. "There is an element of luck, of course," he said. "Freedom from injuries." Injuries threatened Parker's hopes in the third exhibition game when Jimmy Orr and Jack McClairen, the club's top offensive ends, suffered knee injuries on consecutive plays against the Chicago Bears. Orr Recovering Rapidly Orr, voted NFL rookie-of-the-year by United Press In ternational in 1958, has been recovering more rapidly than McClairen but Parker took no chances lest his stars will not be ready when the season opens. He traded fullback Ken Hall to the Chicago Cardinals for Gem Nagler, a pass-catching end. He also obtained the rights to Pete Brewster from the Cleveland Browns. "I'm optimistic because of the improvement of our offen sive team," Parker said. "We are thin in running backs. We could use a speedy half back.?' Parker rated the Steelers on a par with the New York Giants and the Cleveland Browns as Eastern Division threats. Should the Steeler pick up where they left off last season, there's danger ahead for their opponents.

MedfordJ&Tribuni SIPdDMTS Aging Vets Could Mean Difference for LA Rams By JOE ST. AMANT Los Angeles -flJPD- Can two great but aging football vet erans mean the difference be tween a second-place club and a championship team in the National Football league? The Los Angeles Rams are gambling that the answer to that question is "yes" as far as they are concerned with fullback Ollie Matson, 29, and end Gene Brito, 33. The Rams tied the Chicago Bears for second place last season in the league's Western division. They had to give up 8:30 a.m., with a horse race on the track at 12:30 p.m., and the final show starting at 1:15 p.m. Sunday afternoon a self riding contest will be held for youngsters under 14 years of age, with a small trophy as prize. . Judging the Quarter Horse show will be Leonard Milli gan, Denver, Colo., and many of the outstanding quarter horses of this area and the na tion will be entered in the Salem show. More than 200 horses are expected. eight men and a draft choice for the speedy Matson and only one man for Brito who was headed into retirement after seven years as a de fensive star for the Washing ton Redskins. In Brito's case, the question is whether he can stand up at 33, under, the terrific pun ishment a defensive end must take in this league. Has Physical Equipment In Matson's case, he ap pears to have the physical equipment - he's a magnifi cant specimen at 210 pounds, standing 6 feet 2 inches-but can he fit into coach Sid Gillman's system. Matson had his pre-season troubles, playing at fullback and flanker back and half back. Gillman wants his banks to know several posi tions so they can ff in if in juries crop up. Matson thus has the job of learning three assignments in what is to him a new system. If Matson runs at fullback during the regular season, Gillman will use Jon Arnett, the league's leading punt-re- RUGGED BOOTS... SO WATERTIGHT THEY ACTUALLY FLOAT! SOLES.

This has been a rough and tumble week with lots of bruising contact for Eagle gridders. The aim is to have the last heavy battering work this week and to go lighter on the contact in the remain ing weeks of practice. Result has. been some soreness but no real serious injuries. Coach Tom Van Etten has reported that Boh Unger, 200 pounder, catching stride after two weeks of work, likely will see more, service on de fense. - While EP still is warming up for its Rogue league slate, Glendale will vie at Rogue River and Phoenix will play Illinois Valley at Cave Junc tion in conference frays.

RAMS RELEASE TWO Los Angeles - flJPD - Place- kicking specialist Paige Coth- ren and linebacker Clancy Os borne have been released on waivers by the Los Aneeles Rams of the National Football league.

Billy Wade, the former Vanderbilt star, is the No. 1 quarterback. Gillman expects Wade to make this, his sixth season, his best in pro ball. Has Another Backfield Gillman has another back field he will use frequently. This puts Del Shofner, nor mally an end but an elusive ball-carrier as well, into the slot-back position. Red Phil ips moves up to fill in at end for Shofner with Lamar Lundy or Leon Carke, fine pass-catches, at the other end. Offensive tackles are the agile, 238-pound veteran, Bob Fry, and Charley Bradshaw, a 265-pound second year man. Duane Putnam, one of the league's best blockers, and John Houser, are set at of fensive guards with steady John Mor ow.
