siPODninrs
Fanfare
Grants Pass high, which
emerged as a darkhorse and
won the state A-l basketball
crown last season, appears to
be shunning that role as de
fending champ. At least, that's
evident from the Cavemen's
victories of 57 to 35 over
North Bend and 61 lo 42
over Marshfield. Medford
beat those same teams 51 to
47 and 53 lo 45.
Further comparison of
Southern Oregon conference
adversaries will be available
after Grants Pass meets Rose
burg this week end. Klamath
Falls downed Roseburg 45 to
40 and 56 to 54 last week -the
second verdict in over
time. TORNADO IN RUNNING
Medford high, of course, It
behind the other schools in
preparing ior its Southern
Oregon conference season.
Coach Frank Roelandt. how
ever, told the Medford Line
backers last Friday that he
felt his club "it very much
in the running. Anytime they
play they are." Protpectt look
real good, the mentor taid. .
SPECULATION
With the football champion
ship tucked away, there's a
lot of speculation as to wheth
er this school year's group of
Medford athletes can go on
and win the state basketball
title and take a title in a
spring sport, too. The story
is going around that the foot
ballers who are now on the
basketball squad have told
Coach Roelandt, "Don't wor
ry Frank, we'll do the same
for you." There's nothing like
setting your sights high
CONFIDENT AND SERIOUS
Roelandt described his play
ers as a group with a great
competitive heart. They are
confident and teriout. he re
ported. He noted that the
Black Tornado tquad wat
further along in the four
dayt of its practice than in
previous teaiont following
the completion of football.
There are. of courte, tome
non-football players on the
hoop tquad who were drilling
in November. A gridder. who
joined the maplecourt crew a
day later than the othert last
week wat Jack Lowery.
TOUGHER CONFERENCE
Roelandt expressed the
opinion to Linebackers that
Ihe conference will be much
tougher than last year. He
foresees a well-balanced
league and told the sports
boosters that they should see
interesting basketball.
GRIZZLIES BETTE7.
Ashland Coach George Keil
hat told ut that hit Griiily
basketball team it "a lot bet
ter than last year." He wat
"overall real pleated" with
their play last week end
againtt Shasta high of Red
ding. Calif. The Bruint had
hustle and did good work on
the boards and on detente.
PLENTY INTERESTING
Crater with quick guards,
Mike Glines. Lou Alvarez
and Pat Pepper, with Ihe
board work of Howard Tom
linson, Darryl Summerticld
and Paul Bransom and with
Ihe ruggedness of Willie
Jones should make it plenty
interesting despite absence of
height. II did last year. With
out the altitude, however, the
Comets may feel that lack
ugain in Saturday night' games
after they've gone all out on
Friday.
THEY WON'T BUY
We've tried lo convince a
few people that eilh ? Crater
or Ashland will win the state
A-l hoop title tor 1963. We
can't tind anybody willing to
buy that. Here's how we fig
ure: Medford wat champ in
1960. Klamath Falls won the
title In 1961 and Grantt Past
took it in 1962. li t Athland't
or Craler't turn.
LIKE TO RUN
Coach Dick Paup discussed
St. Mary's high baskcball
prospects, also, at the Friday
Linebacker session. He re
marked that the Crusaders
should have a good season
and Ihat they hoped to fol
low the example of Ihe fine
St. Mary's football club. Paup
reported Ihat Ihe parochial

The mentor said that the Cru
saders like to run and will
fast break "anytime they get
the chance."
FIVE-WAY RACE
Paup predicted a five-way
race in the Rogue league of
A-2 schools and remarked,
"We'll be one of them." The
league will be tough, he re
ported. He mentioned defend
ing champ Eagle Point and
Henley among contenders.

ernce play. Illinois Valley

BAREFOOT MEASURE
In Sunday's Prep Patter in
the Portland Oregonian, Leo
Davis quotes Ralph Fisher,
Vancouver, Wash., Columbian
writer as saying that high
schools measure their basket
ball players with their shoes
on. That's not entirely so.
Medford Coach Roelandt told
the Linebackers that the
heights of Medford players
listed on the program are
barefoot weights. Jack Forde
is 6-4 j, Jim Hill and Harold
Reid 6-2'4, Larry Sander 6-3,
Clint Fartsafas 6-2 and Darryl
Stockton 6-1 Vi.
GOOD RESPONSE
Last week Golden Noble,
basketball referee commis
sioner for ihit area, reported
a serious shortage in arbiters
to handle prep and junior
high garnet. We ran a ttory
voicing hit requett for more
whistle-looters. Retult wat 14
retpontet. Noble reportt.
REVERSED ADAGE
We hope we find time soon
to compile some final statis
tics on the Medford high foot
ball team. We're almost two
weeks overdue on the matter
now. If we get them worked
up, we hope they won't ap
pear so garbled as the last set
of Medford grid stats we ran.
You've heard the adage,
"two hands for a beginner."
Well, in the case of the gar
bled story, the problem was
the opposite. One hand, in
stead of two, one of the fel
lows explained, should have
been used in shifting the type
from column to column in
adjusting it in the page.
NO PEA FOUND
Going back lo Medford
high's football title game, Jim
Close, Capital Journal (Sa
lem) writer, had an unutual
lead:
"The North Salem Vikingt
peeped under the wrong thell
. . . and rather than finding a
pea they unleathed a Black
Tornado which twept away
their dreams . ."
Close taid further. "The
match pitted the twift and
tlender Medford tadt against
the large and lumbering Vik
ings." Sportt Editor Al Lightner
of the Oregon Statesman (also
Salem) taid. "The good little
team beat the good big
one ..."

Jim Funston Plays Big
Role in Beaver Success
By JOHN EGGERS
Athletic Publicity Director
Oregon State College
Oregon State University,
Corvallis When the football
season started, Oregon State
was moaning about the over
all weakness at tackle.
True, the Beavers had lost
such talented performers as
Neil Plumley, Mike Kline
and Denny Pieters at these
two important spots. They
had only one seasoned per
former back.
And that one seasoned per
former, Medford's Jim Fun
ston, turned out to be a pretty
fair country football player
in his final collegiate season.
Not that Funston wasn't a
capable tackle in his first two
campaigns. He was called on
late in his sophomore season
to move into a key vacancy
created by an injury and it
was his play that helped the
Beavers finish 6-3-1. As a jun
ior he was a steady second
stringer behind Plumley.
When Funston became a
first stringer this year, he
also became a much better
football player.
Bread and Butter Tackle
For Instance, Assistant
Coach Bob McKittrick was
put in charge of evaluating
the Beaver offense this sea
son. He d keep a game-by-
game account of each play
that was run, where it went,
and how much it gained.
"A great deal of our run
ning attack came over Fun
slon's spot," McKittrick said.
In fact, one of the team's
bread-and-butter plays, a full
back power play on key
short yardage situations,
came directly over Funston.
And remember, tile Bea
vers were second in the na
tion in total offense and sol
new school records in yards
gained and points scored.
Funston was honored at the
recent OSU football banquet.
He won tile coveted attitude
scholarship award. A senior
in business and technology,
he has a grade point average
of B-plus.
