Black Tornado, Grizzly Grid Scuffle at Ashland Tonight "While nobody has even given the Tornado much more than a brisk workout so far this season, if the Grizzlies keep like they have been, Medford could have just about ill the football it will want come Friday evening." That word of warning to the Medford High school football team, No. 1 ranked in all state polls, was sounded earlier this week by sports writer Glen Prescott in the Ashland Daily Tidings. Ashland's Grizzlies and the . Black Tornado battle tonight in a Southern Oregon confer ence joust set for 8 p.m. on Ashland's Walter Phillips field. Medford enters as fav orite on the basis of its un marred record and lopsided triumphs in every game. Just what factor the weath er will play in the fracas was not certain this morning. The weather bureau anticipated partly cloudy skies tonight but no rain around game time. It's what showers may do in the earlier part of the day that will determine the condi tion of the field. Offense Success Key A lightly dampened ' field shouldn't make much differ ence but wet conditions could alow both clubs which rely much on speed and quickness. Medford does have power in its single wing which should serve to its advantage. Offense has been the key to success for both clubs this season. Five touchdowns has been the Medford minimum. Its defense aided by allowing no more than one touchdown in i any game. Ashland has yielded as many as three and four touchdowns and relied on its' attack to offset the rival scoring. Ashland will match the run ning of break-away speedster Bob Voris and Forrest Farm er, the plunging, of Ron Schol ar and the passing of Voris and Doster against a versatile Black Tornado backfield. Medford features the speed and power running of Phil Humphreys, Mike Hood and Dan Sieg, all who have break way ability and the passing of Dick Ragsdale and Hood. Both clubs have passing threats with Medford's offer ing a bit more versatility. Greater squad depth is a Medford asset. Two Common itivali The teams have met two common foes. Medford has wins of 49 to 6 over Klamath Falls and 48 to 6 over Crater. The Grizzlies have . topped those clubs 20 to 12 and 27 to 28. Ashland demonstrated its unpredictability along with a threat to the Black Tornado last week when it beat Del Norte 37 to 19.

Prescott, in the Ashland Tidings, reports that the Grizzlies have not won from Medford at Ashland since 1929 - 31 years ago. .There's another angle to the game. Stan Smith, now in his first season as Ashland coach, is an ex-Medford High school lineman. Anther Stan Smith, now playing for Med ford high, a defensive line man, could spell some trouble for the Grizzlies although he's sporting a broken finger.

Coaches Playing Checkers With Grid Lineups San Francisco - (UPD - San Francisco and the Chicago Bears square off in Kczar Stadium here Sunday and coaches of both clubs today played checkers with their lineups in an effort to find the winning combination. A look at the team's statis tics indicates the Forty Niners' trouble. The Prospectors have moved the ball well but push ed across few scoring points in five games. Moreover, Y. A. Tittle's per pass average is one of the. league's worst. Lack of team speed is the answer. The Forty -Niners have been unable to come up with the' big-gainer. Their longest run from scrimmage to date this year has been only 28 yards. Trying To Figure i Coach Red Hickey-has been trying to figure out how to get Ray Norton and Abe Woodson-a pair of quicksil ver speedsters-into the of fense once in a while. Norton has been working out at flanker and end, but is still green, he is expected to see action against the Bears, however. Woodson has been working with the of fense, but is expected to be in his normal defensive half back spot Sunday because the injured defensive back Jim Ridlon is -now not expected to return for another week. Nevertheless, Hickey said he planned to use Woodson on offense for at least a few plays-indicating the ex-Illinois speedster may see some two way duty Sunday.

The Little Comets wrapped up their 1960 campaign with a 5-win, one-loss record. Mc Loughlin suffered its first loss in five skirmishes but has twice been tied. The Bulldogs close out 1960 play on Nov. 5 against crosstown rival Hed rick. Crater's victory was decis ive last night.

Kiger broke away on a reverse 29 yards to tne Mac seven but fumbled and Cliff Roberts recovered for the Medford team. . Swanson Scores McLoughlin netted six yards in three plays and kicked with Swanson's 12- yard return bringing the ball back to the Bulldog 29. In seven plays Crater had its last TD with Swanson slanting over the left side of the line for the last six yards. Ryer- son's conversion run failed. The Bulldogs got a . first down on their 43 on an 11- yard pass completion, Barnes to Ron Edmonds. Four more passes failed and the Comets took possession on the 43.

NW Title Eyed By Willamette -United Pres. International Willamette and Oregon Tech hope to wrap up cham pionships Saturday in North west and Oregon Collegiate conference football action.

Green cr's spot to help contain the rushing game of the Mounties, Merv Newell probably will get the call on offense to fill the right guard that is vacat ed, but who will take over the linebacking- slot is the ques tion. ' - , The rest of the lineup will remain the same with Gordy Carrigan and Howard Hart- man the ends, Jess, Munyon and.George Moses the tackles, Tony Brauner at left guard and probably Neil Green at center. Al Barnes is set al fullback Doug Olsen at quarter, Eldon Francis at lef I slotback, and Doyle Bransom at the right slotback. ,. Akins and assistant Dr. Alex Peterson both witnessed the EOC-Portland State game last week. Both have stressed the defensive capabilities of the Mounties with special em phasis on John Bagnall. Bagnall is the right defen sive halfback and he inter cepted one pass to stop one Viking threat. SOC, to, is planing some new offensive plays which the coaching staff feels will throw the game more into wide open football with plenty of pass ing and the old razzle-dazzle. With this thought in mind Akins was hinting at the use of the famed "Southern Ore gon Spread." Additional bleachers will be set up for the game to add to the seating capacity at.Full er field as a large homecom ing turnout is expected. Kelso's Owner Delays Decision Laurel, Md.-H!Pl)-Mrs. Rich ard DuPont acknowledged to day an invitation to run Kelso in the $100,000 Washington, D.C., International, but de clined to make a decision un til after Saturday's Jockey Club Gold Cup race at Aque duct. ' A committee of turf writ ers which selects American horses to be invited to the Nov. 11 race at Laurel made its recommendation of Kelso because it. felt American chances would be enhanced by the addition of the 3-year-old gelding. - Together with Brookmeade Stable's Sword Dancer and Cain Hoy Stable's Bald Eagle, the U.S. would have its strong est - possible representation against invaders from Eng land, France,- Russia, Italy and Ireland. - ' Also, the presence of the trio would give firm footing for establishment of a claim to the horse of the year title. Kelso, a slow developer, did not start in any of the Triple Crown races this year. He made his first start of the year in June and won five straight stakes victories, de feating such competitors as T.V. Lark,. On-and-On, and Dotted Swiss.
