The combination of a 13- yard loss by Batzer when he was trying to pass, a couple of penalties stymied the next SM effort to advance the ball. Then a bad center snap oc curred. Dennis Rose was un able to punt and was tackled by John Pierce for a 17-yarrl loss. Medford took over the ball on the St. Mary's 30-yard line, fought to the 12 then lost the ball on downs on the 15 when Jim Cox was smeared trying to pass. SM netted just two yards in three downs and Rose this time got a punt away. Smith ran the ball back 10 yards to the 27. Five playi later the Tornado got Its ini- tial touchdown with Simtn going through the right side of his line. Wallace's kick wai wide. Dippel Goes Tornado defense kept the Crusaders from doing much in the second half. Medford moved 5H yards in 11 plays for its third panel score. Ex cept for IDippel's 22-yard gain to the 12, the yardage was ground out. Dippel went over right tackle for the TD. This time Wallace's kick was good. Don Young grabbed up the loose ball on a St. Mary's punt and returned 20 yards to the St. Mary's 31) to open the last Medford scoring push. One play lost a yard but six plays later Thurman was in the end zone. He ripped off one '17-yard gain on the drive Again Wallace's kick was good. A blocked punt by Dave Duranl and Dippel's recovery enabled Medford to go deep into Crusader territory just before the first half ended In fact Cox got into the end zone on a pass from Curt Wyalt but a hands penalty nullified a score.

"We feel that it should not be too long before further signs of consciousness may ap pear." Dr. J. DeWItt Fox said Monday night. Fox, a neurosurgeon who performed two emergency brain operattons on Lavorante at California Lutheran hospi tal, said the handsome 25-year-old heavyweight showed "continuing gradual improve ment."

PETERSEN AND NORMAN MILLER The surging San Francisco Giants came into the back yard of the collapsing Los Angeles Dodgers today in an effort to bury LA's National league pennant hopes the same way they did in another play off 11 years ago. The Giants had everything going for them - precedent, the home-run bat of wondrous Willie Mays and the strong right pitching arm of Jack Sanford. The Dodgers, on the other hand, had only hope going for them - and little of that. They weren't giving up but their outlook was grim. So desperate was Dodger skipper Walt Alston for pitch ing that he called on Sl. n Williams, an in-and-out right hander with a 13-12 record, to face the 24-game-winning San ford, sidetracking his own ace, big Don Drysdale. Must Win Two "We have to win two games to get into the World Scies," said the grim-faced Alston. Dodgers Picked To Win Today Only If Drysdale Pitches Las Vegas, Nev. - IITI) -Oddsmakers picked the Los Angeles Dodgers to win over the San Francisco Giants io-day-bui only if Dodger ace Don Drysdale pitches. Tha Dodgers were 11-10 favorites if Drysdale sees action in the second Nation al League playoff game, oth erwise the oddsmakers ruled lho Gianls 5-4 favor ites if Stan Williams is tabbed for mound duty. On lh Worlds Series, the New York Yankees have gone up to 8-5 favorites re gardless of who wins the National League pennant. Ed Cummings Of Stanford Gets Honors San Francisco (UPI) Stan ford's rugged linebacker Ed Cummings receb. ed several honors Monday from sports writers who cou'd not figure out whether to call him a back or a lineman. Cummings is a fullback who plays almost exclusively on defense. He had a hand in 26 tackles Saturday as Stanford upset Michigan State 16-13. The Dig Six named him back of the week and picked Hugh Campbell. Washington State end, lineman of the week. Campbell caught seven pass es against Wyombig to set one national mark and tie another With eight games left, Camp bell has caught passes for a record total of 1 ,70!) yards and his 131 receptions tie a mark set bv Dick Beetych of Iowa !

Hunters Urged To Leave Word With Relatives Portland Oregon deer hunters heading for the for ests and range lands of the state are urged by game of ficials and the Oregon state police to leave word with relatives as to the location they will be camping in case of emergency. In addition, the make, color, and license num ber of the vehicle being used should also be recorded and left with the hunter's family. Each year emergencies oc cur at home and more often than not relatives have no idea as to the whereabouts of the hunting father or fam ily. State police and game of ficialsBspend many hours in fruitless search for these hunt ers, with the only information available from frantic families Is that they are somewhere in northeastern Oregon, the Kla math country, or maybe the Tillamook burn. Hunters who move camping locations should also inform relatives of the new location Where accurate information is available as to the camp area, make and color of ve hicles, and names of the indi viduals in the hunting part. It is a simple matter to locate Individuals and inform them of the emergency at home. 1 luntinc parties are impossible ' to find without such information. So if I nltched Drysdale day and he won I wouldn't nave anyone ior wiiiunun a, third game. "But if Stan can hold mem for us today, I'll have Don for tomorrow." It sounded like the gasp of a dvine man. For there would be no tomorrow for the I Dodgers if Wiiiiams failed to- day. Manager Al Dark of tne Giants would not admit ho held the upper hand, but it was apparent the Giant play ers felt they did after the way Mays ruined the Dodgers with his bat and the manner in which little Billy Pierce cut down the Dodger hitters in the first playoff game at Candle stick Park Monday. Wondrous Willie again proved himself the indispens able man when he hit a pair of home runs and stole a base during a late three-run rally to lead the Giants' 8-0 romp over the Los Angeles Dodgers Monday in the opening game for the National league cham pionship. And Pierce, the little south paw pitching castoff from the American league, demonstra ted that he has a lot of heart and savy to go with his' 35-year-old pitching arm as he held the Dodgers to three hits, permitting only two runners to get as far as second base. Jim Davenport and Orlando Cepeda also hit home runs in the Giants' assault on six Los Angeles pitchers and little Jose Pagan hit a two-run dou ble in the eighth inning. Mays Big Gun But it was Mays who sup plied the heaviest cannonad ing and gave the Giants the necessary early lift on a sunny day before 32.660 fans at Candlestick Park. In the first inning, after Felipe Alou had doubled with two out, amazin' Mays wal loped a 400-foot homer over the right centerfield fence for the Giants' first two runs off ailing Sandy Koufax. Daven port s home run helped send Frank Robinson May Play Next Year After All Cincinnati -WPD- To the sur prise of scarcely anyone, Cin cinnati Reds outfielder Frank Robinson said Monday he might play ball next year af ter all instead of retiring as he had announced last week. The 27-year-old slugger met with general manager Bill De Wilt for about a half-hour and after the session DeWitt said the two "had a nice visit." "Frank had slated he wasn't going to play next year," De Wilt said. "He said he was tired and was under a lot of tension during the 1962 pen nant race. Everytime he was at bat it seemed to be very im portant. "He told me he has given the matter further considera tion now and says there is a possibility he will play next year." The Reds' boss added that Robinson said he would visit with him again later. Robinson declined comment after leaving DeWitt's office. Hole In-One Scored At Oak Knoll Links Ashland - Mrs. Roland Hogue, Medford, shot a hole-in-one recently at Oak Knoll Golf course here. The ace was on the 164 yard No. 4 hole. She used a No. 3 iron. She is reported to be only the third woman to have scored a hole-in-one at Oak Knoll. ST. MARY'S WINS St. Mary's defeated Eagle ' Point 26 to 0 on Friday in Junior high football game. SPEC! FY s I READY-MIX CONCRETE 1 Y CALL... 1 CRUSHED ROCK CONCRETE PIPE to-iKoufax to an early shower with none out in the second inning, There is a suspicion that Ed Roebuck tried to shake up Mays with a few tight pitches in the third, but it never phased Willie. He lashed a 3-and-l pitch to left for a sin- gje. In the sixth, with right hander Larry Sherry pitching, another fastball backed Mays away frcm the plate. This time, Willie followed with a home run over the right-field wall. Wins Homer Title That blast gave Mays the major league home run cham pionship with a total of 49. He went into Monday's game trailirg Harmon Killebrew of the Minnesota Twins by one. All jerformances in the play off games are included in the regular-season records. Cepeda followed Mays' sec ond blast with his 35th home run and two batters later Sherry was replaced by right hander Jack Smith who re tired the side. The Giants led 5-0 at that point. A base on balls and a steal by Mays harassed young Phil Ortega in the eighth inning when San Francisco added its last three runs. Ortega and his successor, Ron Perranoski, walked the bases loaded and then Pagan doubled to right center for two runs. Frank Howard's throw from the outfield skidded off the grass and hit shortstop Maury Wills on the forehead between the eyes. The ball bounced into short left field and San Francisco catcher Ed Bailey scored on the throwing error. The hox .core of the flrnt plev. off KHme between the Giants and uongers: I.

DIAL SP 3-7555 Fanfare Medford's game with South Salem high looms as the top prestige football battle in the state this week. Both clubs are high rated in the polls. The fracas will have no league sig nificance, of course. WAS IT FAVORf Bill Mulflur, Oregon Jour nal prep writer, says Marsh field did Medford a favor by tying Grants Pass last Friday night. How. Bill? Perhaps, th tiff strength ened Medford prestige in the, polls. But, what favor is it. really, to be ranked at the top of the polls, where, as Jerry Acklen of tha Grants Pass Courier says, you're a "larget" for all the other teams? And, do you get a trophy for pres tige? As we see, the Grants Pass egc was deflated a bit. Now, the Cavemen will point all the harder for Medford s Black Tornado. NEED TOUGH RIVALRY "We're glad South Salem has a real good team," Fred Spiegelberg, Medford high head football coach, told the Medford Linebackers last week. He went on to explain: "You've got to have tough competition to have a good team. TO PASS OR NOT TO PASS Coach Bill McKibbin, peaking of tha task his St. Mary's high Crusaders faced in encountering the heavier Phoenix team remarked to the Linebackers, "If it's not too wet, we'll throw." Then, he got a roar of laughter when he hastily added. "Well, if its wet. we'll throw." The weather turned out in favor of the St. Mary's air game Saturday but the Cru saders got most of their yard age on the gorund, outrush' ing the Pirates. WILL SERVE AS TEST Coach Al Akins of Southern Oregon college, in explaining to Linebackers why he sched uled the Thanksgiving day (Nov. 22) football game with Whitworth college, slated, "I wanted a test to lell where we've progressed to." He brought out that Whitworth teams have been among the best in the country. Akins said further, "We've got a good team." NOT DISCOURAGED Akins indicated that the Red Raiders of SOC have no reason to be discouraged or ashamed as the result of their loss to Lewis and Clark last week end.
