Medford high'i Black Tor nado will have that thought in mind tonight when It goes on to the gridiron for its sec ond Southern Oregon confer ence football game of 1962 Klamath Union high pro vides the rugged opposition t the Medford stadium with kickoff time at 8 p.m. Whether either team is to realize a clear cut District 6 A-l crown hinges strongly on the outcome of this scram ble. A Klamath Union tri umph would put It firmly in the driver's seat in the con ference chase. For the Peli cans would have victories over their reputed strongest foes - all due respect to the adversaries still remaining Medford and Klamath go upon the turf with 1-0 stand ings in the loop. So, tonight's engagement is for lone lead ership in the loop. 48th Meeting Thb will be the 48th grid iron meeting between the schools. Over the years, the Black Tornado has triumphed on 31 occasions and the Peli cans on eight. Seven times the schools have tied. Klamath was the victor - 7 to 6 - in the 1961 encounter, halting a five game Medford winning string. Medford has claimed or shared the conference cham pionship every season since J954 and has been the strict playoff representative on all but one of those years. Klam ath Falls, which resurged last year, after several lean seasons, to gain a conference tic, is Hill bidding for its first stale playoff berth since 1949. The Tornado Is the favorite in prc-ganic prognostications. Jt is still rated No. 1 in Ore gon after a narrow 7 to 0 escape last week from Cra ter. Klamath Falls blazed last Saturday to edge Grants Pass and gel all-ran recognition in the ratings. Medford carries a 4-0 season mark. Klamath, in high gear after a slow start, is 2-3. KF Wing T The Pelicans will match a wing T offense against the Medford multiple attack. Klamath has the quarlerbaek jng and passing of Rick Horn, the running of Horn, Grover Dahn, Mike Hitching and Ron Hitchcock. Dahn, who has played end, and Hitchcock, ere among receivers. Medford has Dan Miles and Mike Ncaihamer to gear its offense. Both can run and pass. Chief packers otherwise are Jack Lowcry, Frank Van Pelt, Mike Barnes, Tim Mur ray and Mike Walklns. Both clubs have strong and spirited defenses. Klamath's has come on strong In its past two games.

Coach Tommy Prothro is fearful of a letdown following a 27-0 victory over Stanford and a 14-13 loss to Washington in two straight weeks. He de scribed Pacific as a "high, lough and senior dominated" team. The Tigers from Stockton, Calif, have a 3-1 season record compared to a 2-2 for Oregon Slate.

The park is Yankee Sta dium and the opponents are the New York Giants, whose rugged defenders harried Plum more than any other team in the league during the five seasons he played for the Cleveland Browns. For the past four seasons, while Plum held the Cleve land quarterback Job on a regular basis with sideline help from coach Paul Brown, he won only one game and tied one In nine meetings with the Giants. Plum now has left Brown's strict aegis and has been thriving under the greater freedom given him by George Wilson of the Lions. Under Plum's direction, the Lions have posted a 4-1 record for a contending position behind the Green Bay Packers in the Western division. Other Games The Giants still feel they have Plum's number, but the oddsmakers think otherwise. They have made the Lions three-point favorites Sunday. In other Sunday games, the Packers are nine-point fav orites to roll to their sixth straight victory, against the San Francisco Forty NIners at Milwaukee; the Los An geles Rams are picked by 10 at home against the Minnesota Vikings in a battle of the two NFL teams that have not yet won a game. The Washington Redskins, Eastern division leaders with a 3-0-2 record, are three-point underdogs against the dissension-ridden Eagles at Phila delphia; the Browns are fav ored by three points over the Cardinals at St. Louis; the Pittsburgh Steelers are nicked by seven at home over (he Dallas Cowboys, and the Bears and Baltimore Colts are rated even at Chicago. Stanford Foe Of Washington By United Press International Washington and University of Southern California, who have been feasting on non- conference competition, try their luck in the Big Six this week and the odds are long that they'll come out winners. The co-favorites get a pair of well tramped foes for their league openers. Washington takes on Stan ford on the Stanford grounds, while the Trojans entertain California In the Southland. The Huskies will throw some of the fastest, hardest- running backs in the West against the big. but not too fool-proof Stanford line. Fea tured in the Washington at tack will be halfback Charlie Mitchell and fullback Junior Coffey. The latter Is a soph omore rated as one of the finest ball players ever to come out of (he stale of Tex as. It's possible he hils hard er than any fullback in the West since the days of Norm Standlee at Stanford. lhe Indian line will out weigh Washington about 30 pounds to man but It larks the speed of the Huskies. Rogue River Entertains Eagle Point Rogue River Dick Mid- dleton, back with the Rogue River high school club after being injured in pre-season practice, likely will be run ning at the fullback spot when the Chieftains take on the Eagle Point football team this evening. The Rogue league brush is billed here at 8 p.m. Middleton Is expected to take over the spot which has been held down by Mike O'Brien. Although hampered by a charleyhorse, O'Brien likely will see service as a defensive tackle. Coach Wayne Misener said that, otherwise, the Rogue River lineup will be basically the same as last week against St. Mary's Defensive Battle The Chiefs have been stressing defense this week and Misener said that he an ticipates "a pretty rough de fensive battle." The Eagle de fensive unit has allowed only one touchdown so far this sea son. Rogue River, which, after downing Sacred Heart, has dropped two straight, will "try to start winning again." Eagle point will rule the favorite. The clubs have met one common foe. Eagle Point played a scoreless tie against Phoenix which beat Rogue River 55 to 0. No Races For Autos On Sunday No auto races will be held this Sunday, Oct. 21, at the Medford speedway in White City. Recent heavy rains have made the grounds too wet for a racing program according to track officials. Individuals interested In racing stock cars and jalopies next season are reminded that the next meeting for organi zation and formulation of lules will be held Thursday, Nov. 1, at Crater High school in Central Point. The meeting has been called for 8 p.m. Recently two meetings have been held by a group inter ested in racing the 'jalopies' on the track next year and at this weeks gathering they for mulated tentative regulations covering building and racing the cars.

Crater and Yreka High schools provide the gridiron menu for the grads. Kickoff is set for 8 p.m. at the Crater stadium. "I hope we're up again," said Coach Keith Johnson. "I hope we get on the win column." The Comets of Central Point seek a final score in their favor after their tremen dous moral victory last week against Medford. Johnson has emphasized to the Comets that they cannot expect an easy evening. He's wanted them to realize that the Miners from California "will not be a push over."

That was the comment of the Hornet mentor as he look ed toward this evening's game with the St. Mary's Crusaders of Medford. The gridders clash at 7:30 p.m. at Henley. It will be a key Rogue league ruckus. For each con tingent goes onto the field with a 4-0 league record, Weber's reference is to the fact that the Hornets are play ing what he considers the toughest part of their sched ule last. Henley will meet Phoenix and Eagle Point after facing the Crusaders tonight. SM High Rated On the strength of season records St. Mary's might be rated a slim edge tonight. The Medford team whipped Rogue River 27 to 12. Henley barely nosed the Chiefs 7 to 6. St. Mary's whipped Sacred Heart 45 to 13 while the Hornets ran over the Trojans witn a lesser total but by wider mar gin through holding the Klam ath Falls team scoreless. The final count was 34 to 0. Against Lakeview the Cru saders and Henley came out about even.

Tackle and guard John Harris will be on hand after a touch of flu but end and guard Ross Burd was sick yes terday. Steve Jorde may play the defensive end and Forrest Young the offensive guard if Burd is not able to do. Crater enters the scrape with a 1-3 record while Yreka is 3-1. The Yrekans have met one Oregon adversary so far this season. They beat Ash land 21 to 7. The Miners are expected to be aroused after taking a thumping from Crater last season. Hornets were victors 24 to 6. The Medford aggregation is among Oregon A-2 top-rated teams. Henley is listed among the poll also rans. In polls this week, St. Mary's was rated fourth and fifth. St. Mary's has been strengthening its ground game this week. A muddy practice field has hampered work on the Crusader open game.

The Buccaneers, defending Rogue league champs and 1961 state A-2 co-titlists, will have the welcome mat out for the Lakeview Honkers. Game time will be 8 p.m. It will be a league embroilment. There's been a high regard for the Pirates since the be ginning of the slate but Coach Jack Woodward has indicated the feeling that his club is just now beginning to take shape. He said that the Pirates be gan the season with the nu cleus of several good players. Now some of the younger players have been developing and in the future "are going to help us a lot." Plays Added "We're probably in the best shape we've been all season," said the Phoenix tutor. The Buccaneers appear to have gotten rid of its flu and colds. Quite a few plays have been added to the T part of the Phoenix offense to give it versatility. This has been pos sible mainly because of the way Ron Williams has come along as a quarterback. He's been a good blocker right along. His passing and ball handling talent has developed. With his passing and his kick ing, Woodward terms Wil liams an "all-around ball player." Woodward reported that Ron Patterson likely will start at a defensive guard on the strength of good work in prac tice this week. He said that Dale Sauer has been coming along fine and probably will see a lot of duty as a wing back and defensive back.
