Linebackers Open Ticket Sale
Drive for Grandstand Project
Line Potential Provides
Room for Optimism in
Crater High Grid Camp
Mcdlord Linebackers club
yesterday opened a drive to
sell additional five-year sea
son reserved scat tickets to
Mcdford football games.
Aim of the campaign is to
complete the financing of the
4,000-seat grandstand being
erected at the Mcdford High
school stadium.
Gene Orr, who is heading i
up the drive, said that 15

I Linebackers have been given
the names of 10 people each
' tn rnnlact Th 1 .n nonnlp
are among those who had sea
son tickets in 1961.
Linebackers have stressed
that, if a person wishes to buy
a five year ticket, he doesn't
have to wait to be contacted.
Past season ticket holders,
who may have been missed by
error, and all others interested
may contact the high school,
go out and pick out their seats
and get their tickets right
now.
The scats sell for $100, or
more if the purchaser wishes
to make an added contribu
tion. Outright payment for
the seats would be appreci
ated but is not necessary. Pay
ment can be made at the rate
of $10 down and S5 per
month.
Only Seats With Backs
The five-year reserved seats
are between the 40-yard lines.
They will be the only seats
with backs. A section of these
scats is being wired for plug
ins so that fans who purchase
seats there may bring along
electric blankets to the games.
Linebackers will aim to sell
at least 120 more seats. It
was reported at a meeting last
week that sale of that many
more is necessary.
It is hoped to wind up the
drive on Sept. 7.
The covered reinforced con
crete grandstand is being con
structed by Graff and James,
Medford contractors, at a bid
price of $88,500. It replaces a
1.200 wood frame stand that
Central Point Illness has
sidelined Crater High's veter
an quarterback Mike Glincs.
jYet, some real fine line ma
terial is a cause for optimism
here as the Comets prepare
for their forthcoming football
i campaign.
Glines reportedly is a vic
tim of infectious mononucle
osis. It's possible he'll be back
with the Comets sometime in
October. Naturally, he'll be
missed and Coach Keith John
son says, "I sure hope he gets
back."
In the meantime. Johnson
and his staff mainly are con
cerned about the development
of the Crater line. He reports
that the Comets -ave some
backs who can run. There is
good line potential among
boys up from :he jayvees. If it
comes along as it should. Cra
ter should be able to hold its
own. despite a tough sched
ule. Johnson believes.
Matter of Experience
There are good strong kids
among the linemen. "It is Just
a matter of experience we are
lacking," the Comet head tu
tor states. Line mentor Jim
was occupied by students over
the years on the west side
of the field. The old stand be
came Inadequate for the stu
dent body. Students now will
occupy the 2,500-seat cast side
stand which was built by con
tributions in 1947.
It is planned to have the
new stand in use for the Med-ford-Marshfield
game on Sept.
21.

Approximately 50 boys are
now working out. Two prac-
: tices each, were held on Mon
jday and Tuesday, but work in
the fruit cut heavily into the
turnout for the morning ses
sions and the Comets have
now gone to one-a-day drills.
Johnson has only eight let
termen back from the 1961
season. But, all saw regular
duty last fall. The seniors are
Willie Jones and John Harris,
tackles; Paul Bransom, end;
Joe McCalvy, halfback, and
Gary Wald, fullback. Juniors
are Darryl Summerfield, quar
terback, and Vcrn Swanson
and Denny Ryerson, half
backs. Alvarei on Hand
Summerfield, who played
halfback much time last year
when not hobbled by injury,
will have the quarterbacking
chore in Gline's absence. He is
a gridder with the ability to
play any place on the team
and do the job well.
Out to help out at quarter
back, or wherever else he
may be needed is Louis Alvar
ez, a 135-pound senior. He
played junior varsity ball as
a sophomore but was not out
for football last season. Said
Johnson, "I wish he weighed
20 pounds more; he'd be the
best defensive back in the
league."
Coaches working at this
time with Johnson and Tac
chini are Phil Sword, line and
junior varsity tutor; Troy
Bcllah, back coach; Lloyd
Hoffine, assistant jayvee and
Rocket coach; Bill Piche and
Ed Kirtley, freshman coach,
and Earl Barnhart and LaRue
Morris, from Central Point
Junior high.
Crater meets Bend here on
Sept. 14.
Practices are under the new
lights on the turf at Crater

Newspaper Advertising
. . . IV s Not an Intrusion!
People really want newspaper advertising and have said so. Surveys
usually show well over SO: in favor of newspaper advertising; less than
70 for magazines; and under 40 in favor of advertising on radio and TV.
Your advertising's first job is to win a friendly feeling for your product.
It stands to reason you will win more friends by running your advertising
where most people want it.
If you want to sell more people you have to reach them when they are
receptive. Newspapers reach more of the most receptive people.

I Nice try, but the Cincinnati
) Reds couldn't quite make it,
i and if the slumping New
j York Yankees don't start mov
I ing soon they may wind up on
the scrap heap reserved for
all of last year's winners.
The Reds, striving desper
ately to defend their National
League pennant successfully,
CRme perilously close to the
end of (heir rope Wednesday
night when they fell 6' 2
games off the pace by losing,
2-1, to the league leading Los
Angeles Dodgers In 13 in
nings. And the Yankees looked
equally helpless as they
watched their American
league lead cut to two games
in the wake of a pair of 3-2
and 9-5 defeats inflicted by
the Cleveland Indians.
The Reds' loss was a heart
breaker for 20-Rame winner
Joey Jay who carried a one
hit 1-0 lead into the ninth in
ning. Roieboro'i Singl Won It
With two out, however,
Frank Howard singled and
came home with the tying run
on Duke Snider's triple. Then
in the 13th, Johnny Roseboro
singled with the bases full to
end the game and bring re
liever Ed Roebuck his ninth
straight victory without a de
feat. For the Yankees, Roger
Maris belted his 30lh homer
in the opener and 31st in the
nightcap but it wasn't enough.
The Yanks now have lost 13
of their last 21.
Woddic Held singled home
what proved to be the winning
run in the eighth inning of the
opener and Willie Kirkland's
three-run homer was the big
blow In the nightcap.
Gary Bell came on In the
eight inning of the opener In
preserve Pedro Ramos' sixth
victory while Barry Latman
scattered eight hits for his
sixth triumph in the nightcap.
Giants' Strtak Snapped
The Milwaukee Braves
ended the San Francisco Gi
ants' five-game winning streak
with a 10-3 victory, the Pitts
burgh Pirates defeated the
Chicago Cubs, 5-2, the Pliila
delphia Phillies dealt the
New York Mets their lOOIh
loss of the season, 3-2, in 10
innings and the Houston Colls
scored a 3-2 victory over the
St. Louis Cardinals in other
NL games.
The Minnesota Twins moved
Into second place two games
behind the Yankees with a 5-3
triumph over the Chicago
White Sox, the Kansas City
Athletics downed the Los An
geles Angels, 6-0, and the Bal
timore Orioles routed the
Washington Senators, 9-3, in
other AL action
Rookie Lou Johnson had a
two-run homer and three sin
gles to lead the Braves' 16-hil
attack that dealt 15-game win
ner Billy O'Dell his defeat.
Bob Hendley went the dis
tance for Milwaukee, yielding
seven hits and no walks, to
square his season record at
10-10.
Friend Won ISth
Bob Friend, aided by Elroy
Face relief in the ninth in
ning, posted his 15th win of
Ihc season and the 150th of his
career for the Pirates. A two-
run double by Bill Mazeroski
and another run-scoring dou
ble by Don Leppcrt were the
big blows of the Pirates' of
fense as Cal Koonce suffered
his eighth loss against nine
wins.
