La Grande picked up a few gains of length but got no closer to the goal than the Tornado 40. The Tornado rolled up 430 yards from scrimmage to the Tigers' 88. It had 15 first downs to LaGrande's four. "We looked good; we looked sharp," said Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg of Or egon's No. 1 rated taam. "We were pleased with the team. They all kind of came through for us." Good Blocking "They were all right up front. They really tore Into them," said Spiegelberg of the Medford blockers. Good blocking on the line and downfield and greater Torna do speed were elements in the triumph. The Whirlwinds went 56 yards In six plays for their opening counter. Mike Wat- kin, Gandee and Calkins toted on the drive. Gandee had a 17 yard gain and went over right tackle on a reverse to break away and go 28 yards to score.

It was the sixth victory against no setbacks in league play for the Crusaders. Coupl ed with the Phoenix 21 to 7 7 decision over Henley, it would cinch for the Medford team the championship of the circuit. But, a cloud has cust a 1 shadow. A St. Mary's player may be ruled scholastically ineligible. The Crusaders may have to forcfit frays to three league foes. All fuels In the cusc have been gathered. They will be placed before the Ore gon School Activities associa tion. An OSAA ruling may be forthcoming early in the week. Contrary to a story appear ing Thursday in t lie Klamath Falls Herald and News, no final ruling lias been made by the OSAA. A Jim Calhoun to Pete Nannies puss p lay for ciwlit yards gained the winning touchdown. It completed a five play splurge from the Eagle 35-ysird line where the Crusaders had taken over utter an Eagle Point punt. A Calhoun to Nannies puss got 20 yards en route. St. Mary's touchdowncd in the second period and Kuglc Point knotted the fracas in the third. I A fourth down niixun at I the start of the second stanza gave St. Mary's the ball onj the 38. The Eueles virldeH the ! ball after running what they I thought was a third down play. Il took 10 plays to reach the end zone with Marv Mc Gee plunging the final one. Jim Webb, Tom Darland, Mc- Gee and Calhoun packed along the way. A Calhoun to McGce pass gained 10 yards. The Eagles forced their way 64 yards for their touchdown. Mike House and Bob Colpitis each toted four times. Col pitis got lose for 25 yards. Bob Henderson had an eight-yard , try. It was Henderson who barged the final yard. "All-in-all both teams play ed good football," declared Coach Vem Steward of the Eagles. "I think they (St. Mary's) have a fine team and I think our boys played a real good ball game. I think our offense jelled. In the touch down drive we had better blocking than we've had all year." Steward said he felt that St. Mary's overall speed and the quarterbacking of Jim Calhoun were factors in the Crusader win. "Eagle Point riefensed us real well," was SM Coach Bill McKibbin's comment. St. Mary's touchdowns were two of the only three which have scored against the Eagle de fensive players. The Crusaders had a 145 to 113 margin in net scrimmage yards. Steward cited Dale Cham berlain, with 13 tackles, and Charles Pomeroy, John Lind er, Bill Ayres and Bob Bon ner for their defensive play. St. Mary's spotted the pos sible ineligibility and "blew the whistle on Itself." In all, four games may have to be conceded to Glide and to and to Lakevicw, Sacred Heart and Phoenix in the league.

Berry Passes Oregon Ducks To 21-21 Tie With Huskies Seattle H'PD Bob Berry another 36-yard run in the passed Oregon to a 21-21 last- gasp tie wjth Washington Sat urday after the powerful Hus ky running attack apparently had smashed the Webfoots into the ground. Larry Hill burst through the Washington line for 18 yards and the touchdown with less than two minutes to go, and the Huskies leading, 21 13. Berry, as calm as the eye of a hurricane, then con nected with end Dick Im walle for the all-important two-point conversion. Mel (The Marvel) Renfro set up Hill's touchdown with a brilliant 17-yard run after apparently being trapped deep behind the line of scrim mage on a pass attempt. Until that point, Renfro had been held well in check by Washington's defense, but he came to life in the closing minutes. He not only set up Oregon's final touchdown, but ry.fr,- r ". -, ELECT RALPH A. JAMES Democratic Candidate for COUNTY JUDGE Efficient Responsible Minority Heard Majority Rule Impartial Pd. Pol.

Berry had a chance to pass for a winning score but it was broken up in the end zone as hundreds of young boys charged onto the field from the bleachers. The Oregon rooting section erupted in a storm of boos, but the gun had sounded. Washington roared onto the field after the halftime inter mission and crunched out a 62-yard touchdown drive that broke a 7-7 deadlock. Nat Whitmyer, Bill Douglas, Bob Monroe, Jim Stiger and Char lie Mitchell ripped off huge chunks of yardage during the march, which ended when Mitchell burst into the end zone from the one for his sec ond touchdown of the day. Berry limbered up his pass ing arm and proceeded to hurl the Ducks back into the game. He hit Greg Willener for a 32-yard gainer; then passed to Hill for three, and Imwallc for 10. That put Oregon on Wash ington's 14, and then Renfro found Willener in the end zone, and the Ducks scored. But Buck Corey failed to kick the extra point, one of the very few he has missed, and Washington led by one point. Washington moved into a 21-13 lead after Monroe par tially blocked Ron Snidow's punt from the end zone, and the Huskies took over on Ore gon's 25. Three plays later, Washington scored with Sti ger moving in from the 14 yard line. j Oregon opened the scoring the first time it got the ball, i Renfro climaxed a 41-yard drive by going from two yards out midway in the first period. Washington took the ensu-; ing kickoff and with Wee, Willie Siler leading the way; marched 81 yards to match the score, as Mitchell scored from the six.
