Newspaper Page TextCrater High Comets Host Grants Pass In Conference Tilt Central Point - "Maybe Fri day will be the nisht." That is what the Crater hich Comets and Coach Keith Johnson are hoping. For tomorrow night they entertain the light, fast Grants Pass Cavemen in a Southern Oregon conference football scramble. The Cavemen have been sort of a jinx team for the Comets of Central Point. They haven't mustered the good ef fort against the GP aggrega tions so much as they have against other adversaries of the circuit. And, a Comet grid iron varsity has yet to beat the Cavemen. "Do or Die" Crater will endeavor" for that effort come 8 p.m. kick off time at the local stadium. The Comets will aim to end that victory drought. For, suc cess would keep them very much in the conference run ning. On the other hand, a loss would just about knock them out of the picture. ' It's kind of do or die for us," said Coach Johnson. The Comets, who made a good stand against the Med iord forward wall, take some encouragement in the fact that the Caveman line is not so big this year. It's a line which can move, however, and Johnson challenges his Fireballs with the statement that "the up front people and the linebackers are going to have to come through." An all-out effort can be counted upon from both clubs. For, a Crater victory would inflict severe damage on the Cavemen, too. Grants Pass will go into the scuffle as the favorite. The Cavemen hold down sixth place in the three Oregon prep polls, while Crater, despite Linebackers Will Meet Medford Linebackers will hold their weekly noon lunch eon on Friday at North's Chuck Wagon. Fred Spicgelhcrg, Medford high grid coach, is expected lo he present lo review the Klamath Falls game and lo disctiss Ihe La Grande fracas. He may have movies of the Klamath game.

While the Comets have some fine talent, the Climate city club of Mel Ingram has it in great depth. Fullback Gary Wald is a question mark for the Comets. His heel was stepped on in the Yreka contest. The achil les tendon was hurt. Johnson also reported some other ail ing players. John Moostcr lias been do ing well at fullback and may get the starting call. Mike Glines, Joe McCalvy and Vera Swanson probably will round out the starling backfield but all-purpose Dave Twcdell is expected to see much alter nating duty.

SPORTS Big Gate Anticipated At Bozeman San Franeisco-OTU- The hot test fight town in United States, if you can believe pro moter Norman Rothschild, is Bozeman, Mont. "And where is Bozeman?" asked a sportswriter. "Bozeman," said Rolhschild "is in Montana, near Yellow stone Park. And if we can hold Ihe next Gene Fullmer Dick Tiger bout there for the middleweight championship. I can guarantee that we'll have a gate of at least $150, 000." Bozeman, according to the postal guide, lias a population of around 15,000 persons. The San Francisco area, with a population of around 4,000.000 put only 5101,000 into the box office till for the same fight the other night. When is the fight to be held? "We'll hold it on Jan. 1!). if possible," says Rothschild. "And don't worry about the town being buried in snow at that time. Even if it is, the good people of Bozeman will come to the fight-by dog sled or any way they have lo get there." Rothschild had has a bit of experience in Bozeman be fore. He staged the Fullmer Joey Giardello fight there in April, 1960, and grossed ap proximately SI 40,000 at the gate. Rothschild has a contract to stage the return match be tween the two gladiators who hit each other with everything except lightning Tuesday at Candlestick Park with Tiger the victor. The contract calls for the bout to be held either in Bozeman or Las Vegas, Nev. Walt Bellamy Sparks Zephyrs NBA STANIIINCR Eastern Division I..

The Puerto Bican slugger told friends Wednesday that he was nearly blind in his right eye. He said he did not realize il until he took a test last week for a driver's li cense. "When I took the test they found out 1 couldn't see out of my right eye," he said. "Left eye, okay. Right eye, bad." Horace Stoncham, president of the club, ordered his all- star first sacker to report to the Giants' eye doctor, Dr. Gary Campion, when Ihe ball player returns from his vaca tion. "If Orlando has a cataract, as suspected.'' Stonrham said, "it could be corrected. We realize now that Cepeda's late-season slump was the re sult of his eye trouble. "I should have guessed," Stoncham added, "because I remember that sometimes he swung and missed the ball as much as six inches." Cepeda was Ihe National league runs - hailed - in king in I!I6I wilh 142 and he also led the circuit in home runs with 46. His balling average in the 1962 season was .306.
