Medford High Gridsters Dominate Southern Oregon Conference Voting Modford High school's Black Tornado, which won by bulg ing margins in iu district games, dominated the Med ford Mail Tribune's 1960 Southern Oregon conference all-star football aggregation by placing eight men on the first offensive combination and seven players on the de fensive team. Four Tornadoes of the lop offensive unit got 'all votes possible in the poll of coaches and players who voted on all opponent basis. The four are Bob Q u i n n e y, end; Terry O'Sullivan, tackle, and Dick Ragsdale and Phil Humph reys, back. Other Medford quarter on the No. 1 eleven are John James, tackle; Al Funston, guard; Chuck Holt, center, and Mike Hood back, Rounding out this offensive gang are Bob Voris, Ashland back, and Gary Stevens, guard, and Larry Janssen, end, Grants Pass. A defensive team selection was asked by the Mail Trib une for the first time this year. Voting proved much di vided and some incomplete ballots were turned in. Be cause of the thin vote for guard, tackle votes were com- r bincd to place men at that position. Only one halfback was named because the two votes each received by four players for the post were not considered sufficient for a first team. Medford's Al Funston led the defensive polling with eight votes, all that could be received. Six were linebacker and two for tackle spot. Jim Barry, Medford, got six votes at halfback, while Jerry Hauck, Ashland, received six ballots at end and two at guard. Other Tornadoes on the defending crew are Monte Jones, tackle; Sam Knudsen, guard; Bill Charley and Dan Sieg, who tied at linebacker, and Jerry Winetrout, end. Crater placed Bryson La Casse, tackle and Grants Pass Ken Bastian, guard, and Gary Stevens, linebacker. Crater paced second offen sive team placements with five men. Medford received three berths, Grants Pass two and Ashland one. Thirteen men were picked because of ties at two positions. Three players chosen to the first offensive eleven gained 1 0 iV ' Iff .mmJ-A ; L , . ' J5- K 1 V Y-4 .

Quinney, who impressed his coaches also with his blocking, was one of four Medfordites who were unani mous selections in the voting. Bob, 6-4 and 187 pounds, also 'has been chosen on the Oregon Journal's all-star team. (Landis Studio) their spots by one vole mar gins. James edged Rod Fuller, Ashland, 8 to 7. Funston' had the same nod over Larry Ryerson, Crater, and Holt beat out Bob Pfaendler, Grants Pass, 9 to 8. Each head coach and each squad of the conference cast a ballot in the poll, making 10 in all. They did not vote for their own players. In the offensive balloting two points were awarded for a first team vote and one point for a sec ond. Each vote counted just one point in defensive tabulation.

Sports Bulletin: By United Press International Oregon was named today to play in the second annual Liberty Bowl game against Penn State Dec. 17 in Phila delphia. The Webfoots fin ished the season with a 7-2-1 record. Minnesota Climbs to Top Rating New York-IUPD-Minnesota's Golden Gophers,;, after one week's absence, bounced back to the No, 1 berth in the national football ratings- by the United Press International Board of Coaches today but onl by a whisker over Iowa. Iowa actually nailed down more first-place votes than any other team in this week's balloting by the 35 famous coaches who comprise the board, getting the nod from 13 of thorn while Minnesota and third-place Mississippi had 11 each. However, the Gophers, who dropped to fourth place last week after being upset by Purdue, outscored both Iowa and Mississippi in votes for second through 10th place and thus-emerged with 314 points against 311 for Iowa and 267 for Mississippi. ( A three-cornered fight thus was in prospect for the nation al champion in the final 1960 ratings to be announced next week, with just a chance that Rose Bowl-bound Washington could- make it a four-way scrap. ' ": Finish Seasons -' ' Minnesota, Iowa and Wash ington have finished their regular seasons. Unbeaten Mississippi, however, still has a final game against rival Mississippi, Stale this Satur day. . .. V ' . - . Minnesota's vote' ' triumph today was nothing like . the 347 points rung up by the Go phers two Weeks ago, which established an all-time record for the. UP! ratings in their 12-year history.-' This week the nod went to '.Minnesota chiefly on the basis of 16 second-place votes, against 12 for Iowa and only four for Mis sissippi. . i - luese . inree teams were the only ones to receive first. place votes. Iowa and Minne sota were mentioned oh all 35 ballots, Mississippi on 33. Drops to Fifth . Missouri, which had taken over the national lead' last week, dropped all the Way to fifth place as a result of its 23-7. loss to Kansas. Anqther major?-, casualty was 'Duke, sixth .a week ago, which- dropped to 13th after its- 7-6 loss to North Carolina.' Arkansas moved - up two spots to sixth while Navy held steady at No. 7 Ohio Stale moved up one notch to eighth and Auburn was up one to ninth.'

' Fanfare By DICK JEWITT Mill Tribune Spertt Editor Medford high's disastrous and futile football game last Friday night with the aroused David Douglas Scots was "like a dream you can't get away from in the words of Black Tornado Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg. The Tornado couldn't get away from the boogie man," he remarked. Too much pressure which built up before the game con tributed to the downfall of the Medford gridders, in the opinion of the mentor. This pressure built up from the pre,gamc publicity, the raves and superlatives on the prow ess of the team. The Torna does because of this were bur dened with a felt responsible ity as they went into Die game. Medford did not lose because of overconftdence. The gridders were koyed' up trying to win. . ; v REMARKS RILE It riles us to hear this "glad they lost, it'll do them good" remarks around the town. Suro. there ara les sons to be learned in losing. But this is too good a group of boys to be deserving of such talk. Spiegelberg calls his squad a "mighty fine bunch of kids" and points to the humbleness of th group. They are the kind of "men" who deserve to win. They should not be ashamed of defeat if they were trying all the way. v The Black Tornadoes were a terrlfio, precisioned, bril liant football team who en tertained home fans with ..spectacular gridiron deeds. 1 We don't believe for a min ute that they let Medford down. The community should be proud of them for the way they've played this fall. Those who deserved to lose were those who gave wide point-spreads and lost heavily on the game. gon conference trophy. This it the first season the league has been recogniied official ly at the ninth grade level. The Comets lost only to South Grants Pass and tal lied convincing wins over North GP. Illinois Valley JV (non-league), Klamath Falls and Hedrick and Mc Loughlin of Medford. They took a forfeit win from Ashland, JOINED FORCES In coaching the Crater freshmen, Albert (Bill) Piche and 'Ed Kirtley joined forces 21 years after a coach-player tie. 'Kirtley was a coach at Medford high when Bill was an athlete here. For the Frosh, Piche was backfield and of fensive coach and Ed handled the line and defense. Under their tutelage the ninth grad ers scored 22.6 points per game while holding rivals to 4.2.

It was revealing in the press box 'when the Scots played Friday to learn that Mulfur was nil; avid David Douglas fan. This revelation has set us wondering just a bit.

VORIS RUNS WELL Y. Notes, from Ashland; Bob Voris, Ashland high's all con ference baqk.'-packed -the ball" for the ' Grizzlies this season 153 times for 1,312 yards, an average'-of 8.6. He scored 11 touchdowns and five extra points in nine games" for 71 points. vForrest Farmer, sec ond team all-Southern jOrcgonl back, carried 96 times for Ashland. He gained 646 yards, averaging 6.7. Farmer had seven TDs and two extra for 44 points. Coach. Stan Smith's Bruins were the only team to score four touchdowns against Med ford. Only Ashland and David Douglas put over more than one ID against the Black Tornado. CAN BE PROUD This community has anoth er group of boys it can well be proud of in the football Cru saders of St. Mary's high. These Class B state finalists for the second successive year, have won 10 games without a loss this season. In half their games the, rivals have gone scoreless and only two touch downs have been tallied against the first line defensive crew. As this county s only representative In the stale grid playoffs this should have the area s full backing.
