Guard Hero in Los Angeles But Rated By SCOTT BAILLIE United Press International San Francisco Mike Mc Keever, Southern California's storm-tossed guard was a hero in Los Angeles today and a bum in Berkeley. DISPUTED PLAY-University of California's Steve Bates is shown on his back, out of bounds, after picking up II yards in the second quarter against USC Saturday at Berkeley. Coming up is Trojan's Mike McKeever (68) who, according to California Coach Pete Elliott, threw an "elbow smash" to the face of Bates after the play was over. Bates received fractured cheekbone, broken nose and loosened teeth. (UPI Telephoto) GP Downs In JV Grid Grants Pass High school, us ing breaks to the fullest ad vantage downed the Medford High junior varsity in a thrill ing defensive game last night on the Medford high football field 13-7. The Tornado had the ball for only four plays at the first of the quarter before having to punt. The Cavekids then began a drive from their own 35-yard line to the Medford 14. Vic Van Koten took a pitch-out and was dropped for an eight yard loss back to the 22 by Jim Stevers. On the next play a Bob Lewellyn pass was batted in the air by Stevers and caught by Larry Brown on the 10-yard line, giving the Tornado the ball. Mike McCollough made six yards up the middle and George Clearwater went to the 20 but fumbled and Gary McClain picked up the ball and scampered 0 yards for the touchdown. A Lewellyn pass to McClain was broken up. After the kick-off the Cave kids used the best defense in the game, ball control. After the score the Tornadoes could not keep the ball for more than two downs at a time. In the first half the Tornado ran only 12 plays in contrast to the 33 ran by the Grants Pass club. In the first half the Tornado fumbled four times and lost the ball three times, also the Tornado had a pass intercepted. The Medford crew did not pick up a first down in the first half and they netted only 18 yards from scrimmage. After taking the opening kickoff Grants Pass moved Small Center Big Reason For Wins By Oregon Ducks' Football Team By HOWARD APPLEGATE United Press International Eugene, Ore. A small cen ter named Bob Peterson is a big reason why Oregon's foot ball team has been ticking so solidly this year. Peterson, who weighs a shade under 190, co-captains the Ducks and is a native son nominee for the UPI All America squad. This is the same pivot m?r. who took over , as center midway through the 1957 season then starred against Ohio State's tough line as the Ducks were losing a heart-breaker, 10-7, in the Rose- Bowl. With Peterson on the job, Oregon has been the surprise of the West Coast this season. The Ducks won their first five games in a row, knocking over the previously-unbeaten Air Force-20-3-in the process. Last season, Oregon only had a 4-6 record although it sported one of the country's best defensive marks, allow ing only 50 points in 10 games. Peterson was a major factor on that defense. But the Webfoots were hit hard in the line by graduation and Bum in Berkeley Coach Don Clark of the Trojans rushed to his tough lineman's defense Monday fol lowing charges by Pete El liott, the California coach, that "Iron Mike" had deliber ately crashed an elbow into Medford Clash from its own 40-yard line to the Tornado 34 in eight plays. Then with fourth down and about two yards to go for a first down Lewellyn trying to sneak for the first down broke into the open after wedging through a nine-man line and raced 34 yards for the score. Lewellyn pitched to Bob Wilson who ran in for the extra. Stevers ran the kick off back to the 34-yard line and then the Tornado started its first drive of the game. Bob Walker gained one to the 35 and then he caught a Craig Lawrence pass that was good for 30 yards to the Cavekids 35-yard line. Clearwater went to the 31 and then the next two passes were incomplete, on third down Lawrence pitched to Paul Gorran on a 22-yard pass play to put the ball on the nine. Four plays later the Cavekids took over on the three, but they were unable to move the ball on four downs. Stevens took the Cavekid punt and ran 39 yards to the one yard line. On the next - play Clearwater blasted up the middle for the marker. Clearwater also packed the leather for the conversion, making the final score 13-7. FEW TICKETS REMAIN San Francisco-flJPD-Only 4, 800 general admission tickets remained available today for the Dec. 5 National Football leafeue game at Kezar Stadium between the San Francisco Forty Niners and Baltimore Colts. The Fornty Niners cur rently lead the Western Di vision race in the NFL with the Colts second. were picked to go nowhere this year. Also An Offensive Spark. Oregon hasn't been quite as tough on defense this season, but Peterson has. He also is an offensive spark since his speed allows him to block well. "One of the best centers I've ever coached," says Len Casanova, the Oregon mentor who has been in the business 25 years. "The kind of a competitor every coach loves to have on his quad," says Jerry Frei, the Oregon line coach. Peterson's gridiron story starts back in high school when Marshfield High was the perennial Oregon State cham pion and Peterson an All State center. Some wondered about his lack of size and whether his 190 pounds would be enough in college ball. Bob wasn't long in dispelling any doubts about that. It was halfway through the '57 season that Norman Chap man, Oregon's regular center, was sidelined for the year with an injury. Peterson moved into the gap as a the face of halfback Steve Bates during Saturday's 14-7 loss to USC. "I saw absolutely no inten tional smash with the elbow or shoulder but a rolling type of block," Clark said after studying game films for eight hours. And with one dissent ing vote, the Los Angeles football writers named Mc Keever college player of the week from that area. But Elliott, who viewed a different set of films, declar ed that his first peak at the movies showed McKeever taking a crack at Bates after the latter had fallen out of bounds during the second period. Deliberate Elbow Smash "It was not a question of piling on," Elliott said. "Mc Keever had plenty of time to sail over Bates. But he put his hands together and hit. him with an elbow smash. And believe me, no weapon is more lethal than the elbow. It's three times worse than a fist." Bates is in Cowell Memorial hospital after incurring what Elliott described as a "cheek fracture from the eye socket to the sinus area, a broken nose and loose teeth." McKeever, one - half of Troy's famed twin linemen, denied there was "malicious intent" to hurt Bates or any other California player. "Marlin (his brother who plays end) and I have always tried to play hard, aggressive and clean football. It is un fortunate that this accident happened," Mike said. Clark added: "Mike played one of the greatest offensive and defensive games of foot ball I have ever seen and it is a shame that his outstand ing efforts are being clouted by these accusations." Elliott said he aired the charges, "because if somebody doesn't say and do something when a player has a record for fouling, then football won't be helped.'-' , Elliott also said he would like to go over the game films with Clark but that both men were busy getting ready for next Saturday's games. Asked if he would take punitive action if he thought a player on his squad indulged in personal fouling, Elliott said "Yes, I would. And I did, not too long ago." Tom Hamilton, the execu tive director of the "Big Five" to which the Trojans and Bears belong, lightly chided Elliott for airing the incident and immediately was "gang tackled" by reporters at the weekly football writers lunch here. Wants No Publicity "Pete, you should have call ed Clark and handled the mat ter between the two of you," Hamilton said. Pittsburgh's former coach and athletic director also said that the press had the ability to "highlight or lowlight" certain phases of the game and that the McKeever-Bates affair should have been play ed down. Amid a barrage of rebut tals by Bay Area scribes, Hamilton also said, "the inci dent should have been sup pressed because it does dam age to the kid. I'm sure Mc Keever is a fine boy. And Clark can handle him." Lost in the shuffle was the fact that McKeever, who now has been kicked out of two straight games, was not chas ed at Berkeley for the Bates incident but for applying a forearm smash to the jaw of sophomore quarterback Pete Olson in the final quarter. sophomore and starred there as some of the Ohio State team can testify. Last season as a junior, Peterson earned the West Coast coaches' nod for All Coast center. And this year, although bothered by. an in jured foot and a drop in his weight, he has remained the sparkplug of the thin Oregon line both on offense and de fense. A lot of tub-thumpers feel that Peterson's ability to be at the right place at the right time and his competitive spir it rates him some mention this year when the Ail-American ballots are cast. As Frei puts it, "He's a dandy." Peterson will be working against California's line next Saturday ,when the Bears come up for a game with Oregon at Portlands Other leading coast battles feature West Virginia at Southern California, Oregon State at Washington, UCLA at Stan ford, Fresno State at College of the Pacific and Wyoming at San Jose State. Washington State is idle.

That, according to Speed Prescott, sportswriter for the Ashland Tidings, is about the only consolation the Ashland high Grizzlies have after the Medford football team won 56 to 0 last Friday night. Prescott said that the Grizz lies joined a select group of high school ball clubs which have been the victims of "as destructive a ball club as has come down the pike in many a year." He added that the Grizzlies didn't have a chance against "perfection personi fied." NEEDS JUST TIE Medford high needs only a tia in its game with Grants Pass this week end to claim the Southern Ore gon conference and District 6 A-l football crown. Grants Pass has to win to gain even a co-championship. '' But. under league rules, a victory for the GP Cavemen would send them into the state title play-offs instead of the Black Tor nado. Southern Oregon confer ence regulations stipulate that, when two teams knot for the crown and a tie game is not involved,- the team which has beaten the other gets the play-off spot. 50th CONTEST The important game here next Friday night will be tne ROth between Medford and Grants Pass. The Tornado has won 36 and Grants Pass 11. Sorans in 1957 and 1958 were the only ties. In the past sev en seasons under the coaenmg helm of Fred Spiegelberg, Tornado teams have lost only once, 13 to 12 in 1953, to mentor Mel Ingram's GP elevens. Medford won 20 to 13 in 1952, 14 to 7 in 1954, and again in 1955 and 28 to 6 in 1956. The ties were 20 to 20 in 1957 and 0 to 0 last year. 369 POINTS SCORED Tornado players will en ter the Caveman hassle af ter having amassed 369 points against eight other teams this season. That's an average of 46.1 per game. There have been 57 touch downs and 27 extra points. Medford foes have totaled 70 counters. Grants Pass has run up 116 markers while its rivals have scored 150.

The players were Neil Plumley of Oregon State college and Dick Copple of Washington State university. The two were linemen on the 1956 state runner-up Black Torna do team. Spiegelberg, a WSU alum, said that Neil, a defensive left tackle, did a, real fine job on defense during the sec ond half. He played more than half the game.

"I have not seen movies of the game," Engelhard de clared. "But I don't think Pete would make a statement like that without good reason." Engelhard refused to dis close the time or manner in which the two members of the newly-f ormed "big five" would mull over the incident. After viewing game films Sunday, the usually mild El liott said that McKeever, one of Southern California's star twins, gave Bates a forearm smash in the jaw during the second period after the Bears halfback had fallen out of bounds following an 11-yard gain. "It wasn't a matter of piling on," Elliott said. "It was the way he came in on the play. When McKeever did come in, it was right on the side of Bates' face."
