Crater 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.
Bill McKibhin, St. Mary's
mentor, may hp on hand In
report on last week's Henley
mix and the game Friday with
Kagle Point.

While the Comets have
some fine talent, the Climate

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

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.

Tornado
"We're working (hem hard
and letting them knock
heads."
Thai's how Head Coach
Fred SpicRelbcrg described
the workouts this week of the
Medford Hich school football
Black Tornado.
The Tornado went through
a regular game-type scrim
mage, sans conversions, yes
terday following a similar
session on Tuesday.
Purpose, according to Spie
gelberg is to try to get a 100
per cent effort. And, it is the
intention to have this quality
carry over into Friday night
when Medford plays host to
the Tigers of La Grande.
And. although Medford will
rule the favorite, full effort
may be necessary. The Black
Tornado will go against the
Tigers with no first hand in
formation on the eastern Ore
gon team.
Into Game Cold
La Grande has not been
seen in action by Medford
scouts. Spiegelberg said that
the Tornado is "going inlo the

It will be a battle to remain
in the running for the crown
which the Pirates are defend

a 4-1 record in Ihe loop. Phoe

Cepeda Might
Have Cataract
San Francisco - HOT - San
Francisco Giants first base
man Orlando Cepeda went on
a brief vacation today and
left team officials and fans
wondering how serious his
eye ailment was.
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.
