St. Mary's Tussles Phoenix
In Saturday Rogue Loop Mix
Rays of the Rogue league
football spotlight split three
ways today and tonight. On
Saturday all will focus on the
Medford High school stadium.
Phoenix and St. Mary's of
Medford are Saturday night's
gridiron foes. Each seeks its
second victory in the Class
A-2 school circuit. The Pirates
of Phoenix ' enter battle as
league and state titular defend
ers and St. Mary's as a top
contender in the loop.
' Kickoff is set for 8 p.m.
; : Both aggregations are crowd
leasers Phoenix with a
brand of power football that
carried it to an Oregon Class
A2 crown in 1961 and St.
Mary's with a wide open style
of ball with much reliance
placed on speed.
Bues Favored
" : The Buccaneers rale as fa
vorites on the strength of ex
perience, size and opinion in
'the polls. With big men who
move well, they have good
speed and they are capable of
Jong gain lightning strike.
Against Rogue River last
week Phoenix showed it can
utilize a diversified attack.
St. Mary's is expected to
place more dependence than
ils rival on its air offense. For
the Crusaders have a top
thrower in three-year veteran
quarterback Jim Calhoun. His
niain targets could be ends
.Pete Naumes and Ron Rob
erts. The Medford parochials
will have the running, too, of
Calhoun, Tom and Tim Dar
land, Jim Webb and Marv Mc
Gee with McGee expected to
see his first offensive duty of
the season.
1 ; Phoenix has the ground as
saults of Jim Consbruck, Dave
.Jlohnson and Dennis Grennan
ith Ron Williams a capable
quarterback in the single wing
and T. Consbruck, 160, and
Dave Johnson, a 202-pounder,
' are the breakaway runners of
' the Bucs. Williams and Cons
bruck are the passing threats.
Each Win Two
v ; Comparisons of probable of
, ensive starting crews show
, this comparison. Veteran
Ehoenix has a 185.1 pound
line average to St. Mary's
159.6 and a 173.7 backfield
average to the Crusaders' 153.
! The Medford parochials en-
ter the skirmish after victories
of 38, to 31 (non-conference)
: and 26 to 7 over Lakeview
(league). Phoenix whipped
Oakland 33 to 7 in a non
counter and Rogue River 55
to 0 in the circuit.
: Last year Phoenix nosed St.
Mary's 25 to 21 in the Rogue
loop spellbinder of the season.
It was a see-saw game. It was
Ihe only Crusader setback of
the season. Phoenix went on
through an 11-win one-tie sea-
(sbn, knotting with Myrtle
Point for the Oregon A-2 ban-
; ner.

Contend at
Redmond
Ashland - A flanker back
moved up from the junior
varsity may get starting call
tonight when the Ashli nd
high varsity football team op
poses Crook County at Prine
ville. He is Roger Atherton whose
running and pass catching
abilities caught the attention
of varsity mentor Marsh
Jones in the jayvee game with
Medford. Atherton caught
passes for both Ashland TDs.
Jones said this morning,
however, that he was unde
cided on whether to start Ath
erton or Mike Torreson.
Ashland drills this week
have emphasized defense and
Jones reported that the Grizz
lies were "shaping up pretty
good"
Bruin scouts have reported
that Crook County appears a
bit stronger than the Red
mond club which beat Ash
land last week. There are old
er boys who are aggressive.
Jones reported that Jo'in
Rhodes may get the call at
one starting end in place of
Gale Tepper. Tepper pulled a
muscle in the Redmond mix
and the coach feels he is not
quite ready for action.
Other possible starters are
Mike Cotton, end; Don Soren
son and Bill Jury, tackles;
Jack Gruber and Jim Conk-
lin, guard; Jim Smith, center;
Howard Johnson, quarter
back; Ron Boyce, left half
back, and Don Scholer, right
half.

led by Bob Stiehl. He turned

spot this week. Frank Palmer

Saturday
By United Press International
Southern California and
Stanford, which got off to
impressive starts last Satur
day against intcrsectional
foes, try out the cross coun
try opposition again Saturday
with the Trojans invading
Southern Methodist while
Stanford Michigan State.
USC upset a highly-regarded
Duke team, 14-7, last week
and has been pegged an 11
point choice over the Mus
tangs, But Stanford faces a
much tougher row. The In
dians downed Tulane, 6-3, in
the New Orleans heat and
now faces a Michigan State
squad that could be Rose
Bowl bound.
Coach Duffy Daugherty's
Spartans have been made
13V4 point selections for their
season opener that brings to
gether two massive lines.
UCLA is Idle
UCLA still has a week to
go before it launches its cam
paign. But there are plenty
of other key games on top.
They include Illinois at Wash
ington, Washington State at
Wyoming, Utah at Oregon,
Oregon State at Iowa and San
Jose State at California.
Daugherty has labeled his
Michigan State team as "pep
py and in good shape" for the
Indians who may have found
a good running back al last
in J. D. Lodato. The latter
got off a 30-yard touchdown
run to beat Tulane.
Southern California used
"red," "green" and "gold"
squads while knocking off
Duke and Coach John McKay,
after viewing the game films,
will stay with them. He also
will be going with Willie
Brown, his fast halfback, who
showed well against the Blue
Devils.
Halfback Charlie Mitchell,
an established star al Washing
ton, may not start when the
favored Huskies meet the II
lino. Coach Jim Owens moved
Nat Whitmeyer up ahead of
the veteran Mitchell as a re
sult of the former's play
against Purdue.
Washington State, which
bombed San Jose State 49-8
last Saturday, takes on a Wyo
ming team that' lost to New
Mexico by four points last
week. The Cougars' passing
battery of Dave Mathieson
and Hugh Campbell might
have a little loo much for the
Cowboys to handle.

Oregon, which put up a
great battle before losing
