MEDFCW)t&J1UDBUMl
SIPdDMES-
A week end of concentrated
football activity in Medford
and vicinity will be capped
on Saturday night with the
appearance of the school de?
fending the Oregon Class B
prep championship..
- f Merrill, the 195? small
school titlist, will oppose St.
Mary's on the Medford field.
The mantle of District 5B
will be the prize for the win-
ner. . .
Game time has been set for
7 (seven) p.m. Thats an hour
earlier than tilts here usually
start and differs from the
time listed in the Mail Tri
bune yesterday.
St. Mary's, which last held
the District toga -in 1954, will
try for its first win over the
Huskies. In three previous
meetings the Merrill club de
feated the Crusaders, 13 to 7
in 1956, 39 to 6 in 1957 and
33 to 6 last year.
Impressive Record
7 " The Huskies come to Med
ford with an impressive
record. . They have a streak
"of 18-to 20 victories going
and have not lost a game since
the state semi-finals of 1957,
Of course, it's this year that
really counts and the Crusad
ers have a record of their
own of which" they can be
proud. St. Mary's is 6-1 for
the season with its only loss
7 to Ojto Yreka, Calif., A-l
in size when compared to
Oregon classification.
Both schools are 5-0 in the
5-B loop. St Mary's triumphs
were 31 to 0 over Talent, 28
to 0 over Bonanza, 33 to 13
over Chiloquin, 18 to 13 over
Malin and 19 to 6 over Sacred
Heart. Merrill beat Sacred
Heart 25 to 0, Malin 46 to 20,
Bonanza 27 to 0, Chiloquin
14 to 12 and "Talent 27 to 7
Overall the Huskies . will
outweigh St. Mary's, especial
ly on the line. Merrill doesn't
have the heft that the Cru
saderg met against Yreka, but
they have more speed 1 than
possessed by the California
team.
Likely . offensive starters
for Merrill are Ray Story
(180) center; Dick Marks (180)
and David Sharman (135),
guards; David Andrieu (190)
and Arlo Rasdal (165), tackles;
Brian Fields (175) and Billy

Ashland - "It's not a ru-
j mor, it s a fact, declared
Southern Oregon college foot
ball eoach Al Akins When he
was quizzed about starting his
freshman unit against Eastern
Oregon college in the Myrtle
Bowl in North Bend Saturday
night. ' . '.'..
"We had a scrimmage Wed
nesday night between the
frosh and the upperclassmen
with the first year players
winning 13-7,"' continued Ak
ins. Akins had said the. day
before that he would start the
team that won and this was
apparently the chance the
frosh had been waiting for.
-., As a result, Frank Ballard
will be starting signal caller
from the .quarterback slot
where he. saw some action last
week with, the highlight being
a 40-yard pass play taend Jim
Dietz.-'
Dietz. will be at one of the
ends and Clark Peterson will
be at the other in addition to
his safety back chores on de
fense. Enormous Dick Craves at
264 pounds holds the center
spot in hand while two "small
gridders," Bill Guthrie at 175
pounds and Bill Harper at
170 pounds, will start at the
guards. . " " ' "
. It's, Harper who gives this
frosh unit their name. Harper
is the lone .sophomore on the
underclass outfit and as a re
sult the , unit is xalled ' the
"Frosh Bandits plus Harper."
Jess Munyon and Bill Work
inger 4have been given the
tackle assignments to finish
out the front offensive line. '
Grants " Pass grad Larry
Drake starts at fullback, Kern
Bennett at tailback, and ei
ther Doyle Bransom or John
Mills at the wingback to fill
out the entire unit.
Akins still kept the thought
that EOC's Mounties would be
no pusnover no matter wnat
team he started. He tried to
impress upon- his gridders
that they always seem to get
tfp to give us a terrific .bat
tle. It was EOC that rose to
unknown heights two years
ago to hold the Raiders to -a
scoreless deadlock when the
men of SOC captured the Ore
gon Collegiate conference ti
tle. The Mounties had " not
won a single game in OCC
play but in the last game they
surprised the SOCmen.
Last year the Raide rs
emerged victors by only one
touchdown, 19-12.
In OCC play this year both
teams have beaten the same
conference foes, Portland
State and Oregon college,
while losing to the same team,
Oregon TechJ Each rates' a
second place in the OCC pro
viding they can win the Myr

Dave Powell's shoulder has
healed enough so he can play
and quarterback Dave Grosz

the Ducks lost 13-12 to Wash

Casanova reminded his
team -that Oregon's 1957 Rose
