MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 22. 1962 Oregon City's Pioneers Invade Medford for Semifinal on Friday An Oregon City High school football contingent which is "looking forward to coming down there" will invade Med ford on Friday night. An Oregon Class A-l semi final game is the occasion. The Pioneers will go against the Medford Black Tornado. Kickoff at the senior high school stadium is billed for 8 p.m. Prize to the victor will be a jaunt to Portland's Multno mah stadium for the finale for the championship of the state. Medford carried the favor ite designation as the state's No. 1 ranked team. Oregon City ranked ninth in the polls. But, Coach Tom Keele feels his Pioneers will give Med ford "a whale of a ball game." He said yesterday that his players are looking forward to the trip. Capable Material The Tualatin-Yamhill Val ley league, of which Oregon City is the champ, has been looked upon as one of the state's lesser A-l circuits. Yet, Keele says, "I think our boys have really got the type of material capable of playing in any league." Both teams enter the skirm ish with unbeaten records. The Pioneers in 10 games have been once-lied. And, both squads have tough de fenses. Keele, while recogniz ing Medford's strong defensive reputation, remarked that he felt his team has fair defense, too. Medford was unscored upon In the first seven of its nine frays. Oregon City has held six foes without a touchdown, including the last five. Only 13 points have been tallied against the Black Tornado and just 40 against the Pioneers. The top Tornado defensive unit has permitted just one touchdown. Two of six run over against the Pioneers 1 oV TORNADO LINEMAN J I m Snodgrass, above, a 152 pound guard, is a regular of fensive lineman for the Med ford High school football team. He is among the seniors on the Black Tornado squad who'll make their last home grid appearance of their MHS careers on Friday night. Med ford will play Oregon City in an Oregon A-l semifinal with the victor to go on against either Jefferson or North Salem.

Firit Semifinal Offensively, the Oregon City club has run up 238 points in 10 games and Med ford 212 in nine. Tomorrow evening's con f lift matches a playoff vet eran Medford school against an Oregon City aggregation giving its school its first state gridiron elimination venture in 12 years. Medford is back in the semifinals for the fourth time in five years. It was sidelined last year by a drawing after a three-way southern Oregon conference tie. This is Oregon City's first time as a scmifinalist. A Pio neer team was a quarterfinal ist back in 1950. How does the Black Tor nado look toward the battle? "They want to go to Port land," reported Coach Fred Spiegelbcrg. "I think the kids know the seriousness of this game," he said. "It would be disaster if they lost." The mentor this week has been pointing to a two-year-old les son. In I960 a good and fired up David Douglas team spill ed one of Medford's all-time great teams in the semifinals. The probable starting line up as listed by Keele, shows that the Pioneers will have more heft than Medford in their wing T offensive start ing line. There are three 200 pounders and only one of the seven forwards is under 180 pounds. Keele listed R. J. Hudson, 6-4 Vj and 216, at cen ter, and Dennis Brown, 205, and Mike Christensen, 206, at tackles. Backficld weight is average. Hudson was the only defensive starter named by Keele who is more than 200. The Pioneers are ambitious to continue a rags to riches story. Last season the Oregon City team recorded one tie but failed to win a game. Leo Davis in the Portland Oregonian said last week that Oregon City has written the "comeback story of the year." He added, ' Tim Jones, Gary Kinetic and Ron (R. J.) Hud son have been the standouts but this has been a team, rather than an individual ef fort." Team play also has carried Medford far.
