6 a WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 18, 1980 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD, OREr Black Tornado Pres Defense To Meet Diversified Attack Medford High school'i foot ball Black Tornado hai had "fun in the rain" thii week But there has been plenty of serious business too. St. Mary's Underdog in Semifinal St. Mary's of Medford, slate Class B football co-champ In 1959, will have the underdog role this week In Oregon prep semifinal play. So Crusader mentor Bill McKibbin was informed last week after his Medford club had tripped Wasco County high at Maupin 20 to 0 In a quarterfinal clash. That was the opinion of the coaches of the Maupin team. St. Mary's will take on Umatilla at 8 p.m. Saturday night at the Medford stadium In the semi. Umatilla downed Union 27 to 18 in its quarter final match. Underdo!! status of the Cru saders Js based on Umatilla's win over Wasco by a larger icore than St. Mary's ran up and when the Redsides of Maupin were not so crippled as they were for the quarter final match. Fin Lint Reports indicate Umatilla to have a real fine line and to be strong on both offense and defense. The Vikings use a multiple offense, employing T and single wing formations and shifting from T and sin gle wing much as Medford and Phoenix do. A running game is favored and reverses and spinners have been effective In the Viking repertoire. Names were not available today. But the Umatilla club has been rated strong at mid dle guard, left tackle and left end on defense. The club's backs reportedly are "not loo big but hard to bring down." Umatilla is listed as fairly sound fundamentally. Its speed is "not too great." Vik ing weakness, if any, has been in pass defense. The Crusaders have been working on a new defense to stop Umatilla's up the middle attack. McKibbin reported plans' to go back to offense today. ' The coach reported thai Alex Mete has ailing knee and Bill Smith a sore arm but that Injuries tq both Crusad ers appear to be minor. -ir. - It ' 4 fS: l UfJF it hJ: l: . , : i i s t- I s 1 H v t?v '..

Doty, Medford, and Carroll W. Smith, Ash land, were recipients Sunday of Silver Beaver awards the highest Boy Scout award that can be given an adult. The award presentation took place at the 36lh annual meeting and recognition ban quet of the Crater Lake coun cil of the Boy Scouts of Amer ica. The banquet was held at the Rogue Valley Country club. Both men were presented the awards for their contribu tion to scouting and service lo their communities. Doty is Scoutmaster of Medford Lions club Troop 14, and Smith is vice president of the Crate The Tornado, bidding for a second state chamlponship in two seasons, is priming for what the experts rate its most rugged scuffle of this fall. It meets David Douglas of Port land here Friday night In a Class A-l state semifinal elimination struggle. Defense has had the con centration of the first two days this week of drill, Coach Fred Splegclberg said last night, he indicated the Big Wind has been able to get quite a bit accomplished in the workouts despite the wet. Medford is girding to meet a diversified attack that makes the Scots a serious scoring threat. David Doug las, mentorcd by Marv Hie- bcrt utilizes T, wing T and double wing formations and employs slot backs in an at tack which has gained the Scots a nine-win, one-loss 1960 record. Have Dectption The DD Scots have hard running backs in full Dan Lambert and halves Bill Pierce and Dave Hanson but the offensive forte, judging from last week's observations, seems to be deception more than power and speed. But, it is acknowledged that the rain-s o a k e d, muddy field could have made it look that way. The Douglas club has a well-trained quarterback in Terry DcSylvia to initiate that deception. Program weights have in dicated that David Douglas, a school of 1,600 students Just outside the east Portland city limits, fields a lighter team than Medford's. Tornado tu tor Spicgclberg has comment ed, however, that the players looked bigger than the pro gram showed. David Douglas is champion of the Metropolitan league. It gained the semis by stopping Jefferson of Portland 13 to 6 ing the Democrats' bid for a fourth straight appearance in Oregon A-l finals. The Scots lost only to Mil- waukic 27 to 19. Their victo ries have included 26 to 0 over Beaverton, 50 to 18 over Clackamas, 11 to 6 over Hills in quarterfinal action, halt boro, 27 to 6 over Astoria, 48 to 7 over Gresham, 28 to 12 over Sunset, 32 to 0 over Cen tennial and 34 to 3 over Cen tral Catholic. They are riding on a string of eight straight wins. David Douglas has run up 306 points this fall to oppon ents' 85. .w.hwvxm.i!m Lake council. Installed Preildent N. H.

Syndicate Purchasing KC Stock By ED SAINSBURY Chicago-tUPI)-The signing of legal documents In probate court today was to formalize a deal by a St. Louis syndi cate to purchase control it the Kansas City Athletics. the St. Louis syndicate virtually won court approval Tuesday of its offer for com plete control of the club, re ported to be about $3.5 mil lion. Probate Court Judge Rob ert Dunne was the 1 prime mover in pushing the propo sal to the point of completion. He ordered the estate of Arn old Johnson, late owner of the Athletics, doormats of the American league last season, to sell its 52 per cent interest in the club to St. Louis group. but the sale also was con tingent on the syndicate's ability to buy up the remain ing 48 per cent of stock. Von Over KC Croup , 1 he precise offer of the St. Louis group was not revealed. But it was reported the syn dicate apparently won over a Kansas City group headed by w. Putsch, a wealthy res taurant owner, who offered to buy the A's for $3.6 mil lion. A highly informed source. however, said the difference between the St. Louis pur chase price offer and the Kan sas City bid was "negligible." I he SI.

Fourth - ranked Minnesota which can tie Iowa in the Big Ten, is a seven-point favorite over Wisconsin. A Gopher vic tory also would make them strong candidates for a Rose Bowl bid. Fifth - ranked Washington, the host team at the Rose Bowl by virtue of its Big Five championship, is favored by 13 points over Washington State. Duke, sixth-ranked in the nation, is a 14-point pick over North Carolina, eighth-ranked Arkansas is an eight-point choice over Texas Tech, ninth ranked Ohio Stale is picked over Michigan by seven and one-half points, and 10th rnnked Auburn is favored by 16 over Florida Slate.

Scheffing Report Said Premature By FRED DOWN New York 1UPU Bob Schef fing, who warns "don't expect miracles because I'm no mir acle man," has been selected to manage the Detroit Tigers in 1961, it was learned today by the United Press Interna tional. The selection of the 45-year- old ex-Chicago Cub pilot will be formally announced within the next 10 days in order that Scheffing will be able to be with other club officials dur ing the major league meetings beginning in St. Louis on Dec 5. Club president John Fetzer said the announcement premature" and Scheffing said he "knew nothing about it" but the UPI source said the choice was definite. Casey Stengel, who was dropped by the New York Yankees be cause of his 70 years, was De troit's first pick but turned down the job. Scheffing's previous major league managerial experience was with the Cubs whom he guided to a seventh place finish in 1957 and to fifth- place finishes in 1958 and 1959.

Greenberg, who is the or ganizer of the group which plans to operate the new AL franchise in the West Coast city, made the comment in response to Commissioner Ford Frick's statement that new franchises in Los Angeles and New York face a snag called "Rule One-C" of the big league rules. "In the first place," said Greenberg, "everybody was under the assumption that the commissioner already had de clared those cities open cities. This is a matter which will have to be resolved on Thurs day when we all sit down with the commissioner." Change Needed "Otherwise," Greenberg con tinued, "it is clear that Rule One-C must be changed in order to pave the way for ex pansion in 1961 - and I am sure that the rule can be amended. In fact, the Ameri can league already has sub mitted the necessary amend ment. It's up to us now to vote on it." Rule One-C states: "To pro vide and stimulate competi tion for the league pennants and for the world champion ship, the circuit of either major league shall not be changed to include any city in the circuit of the other major league except by the unanimous consent of the clubs constituting both major leagues." Under that rule. Los Angeles Dodger owner Walter O'Malley - or any other Na tional league owner - could prevent AL's expansion into Los Angeles by simply voting against it, National league sources say that would be a foregone conclusion. Frick has indicated that he will vote against expansion if the two leagues disagree on a All sizes DOWN Si) s) rule amendment and leave him with the decisive vote. Frick has long been a champion of expansion in principle bul is angry because of the way Ilia leagues have been acting in dependently of each other.
