And do football squad tested the Coach Fred Spiegelberg plan new stadium turf last night andned again to take his squad for found it to its liking The occasion was an under the lights drill on the Tornado gridiron in preparation for this week s season opener. With an 8 p.m. kickoff set, the Rogue Valley Hurricane en tertains the Corvallis Spartans on Friday night in a non - lcagu - er as the prep slate gets under way all around the state. The cool night and the work out on the new grass served to perk up the Tornadoes in their next to last drill before making their IU63 inaugural.

The 170-pound Senior has seen previous half back service for the Whirlwind. Expansion Decision Possible This Year BERKELEY, Calif. (UPI) -Chancellor Edward Strong of the University of California be lieves that the Athletic associa tion of Western Univnrsit i c s (Big Six) may reach a decision this year on expansion. "The matter in under con tinued discussion and it's pos sible that there may be some decision during the course of this year," Slrong said Wednes day. Asked if the climate was more favorable now for expansion than in previous years, Strong answered, "I think so." Oregon and Oregon Stale are regarded as potential new mem bers for the conference. Both belonged to the old Pacific Coast conference before is broke up in 1D57. f . i i w Phoenix Grid Squad Caiied Best Overall PHOENIX "The best overall : single wing and quarterback squad wove ever had is the way Head Coach .lack Wood-1 ward describes his Phoenix high football gang as it completes preparations for its season opener. j But he is quick In add: "That does not mean it's Ihe best team. That remains to be seen." The Buccaneers travel In Sa lem to take on Serra Catholic on Friday at R p.m. What Woodward means is that the Pirales have depth. The mentor, in his 15th grid season at Phoenix, has 45 hoys out for varsity football more than he's ever h.:d. "We have more players that we can de pend on," he reported. In the past seasons it was felt that 15 or 16 players were all that could lie used without affecting Phoenix strength. This season that number is up to 21 nr 25 Belter Prepared Another thing: Woodward said he eels that this year's squad is belter pre pared for its first game Bill, he added a word of caution "That also remains to be seen. "I think Ihe riefer.se is ahead of the offense nnd the running offense is ahead of the passing game," Woodward reported. He pointed to inexorienee in a few spots in the offensive line and commented that "blocking is not too sharp but I think it may come along " Fullback Jon Granby was re ported hobbling from an ankle uprain. For that reason. Wood ward said, Granby likely will tee a lot of action on rruiny at wingback with Dennis Gron-lnff the freeway at Salem's Mar nan moving from Hie right half kol st. exit.

Tested last night were t h e lights that have been placed on the yardage chain poles, the down box and the end zone flags. This has been fill-in week in Black Tornado practices. "We have been doing the things we've let eo." said Spiegelberg. The Whirlwind has sort of fill ed in the holes and calked the cracks. Work has included "sit uation stuff" on both offense and defense. Defense, particu larly has had a lot of attention. Coach Spiegelberg reported tackle Jeff Hardrath doing good work in drills. He said that Bri an Petersen is coming along good at offensive center. Biil Houston is coming back strong at end, Spiegelberg stated. How ever, Walt Verstrate rates the edge at the right flank on of fense. (Ill In Good Shape Quarback was pronounced in good shape with Mike Barnes' ailing knee and Rich Knight's jammed wrist healed. Greg Gandee, Larry Vowcll and Ron fcdmonds continue to maRc it a real contest at right halfback. At right halfback Lance Case beer keens on pushing Tim Mur ray with Jom cox also "rigm. in there," according to the coach. Greg Dippel is looking good be hind Enyart. Spiegelberg's offensive and defensive rosters, listing the players on how they currently rate at the various positions, show four players as probable starters both ways. They are Hardrath and Mike Mayfield at the tackles. Peterson at center on offense and guard on defense, and Enyart at lull oacK ar.a linebacker. At the left ends Steve Tocws nnd Steve Davis are indicated one and two on offense and Flanders and Toews in that ur Hir nn defense. At the right flank Houston is indicated as possible defensive starter with Dave Durant in the No. 2 spot. Back of Hardrnth Don Todd on offense and Tom Wooton on defense are back of Hardrath at left tackle. Back of Mayfield its Durant for of fense. Ed Welch back Buffington on offense and Terry Winetrout at defense at left guard. At right guard it's Dick Bottgcr back of Kimball for attack and Todd behind Petersen when the Tor nado is defending.

Directions Given Woodward said the Pirales are going into the game cold on what to expect in the matter of Sabre material or brand of ball A large number of fans will follow the Pirates when they go north. But a good number nf backers reportedly are not sure of how to gel to the Salem east side parochial school. Phoenix llioh Principal E. M. Skipworth advised fans to turn Corvallis New Turf IN TORNADO LINE Brian Petersen, above, is to see action as offensive center and defen sive guard for Medford high on Friday night when the Black Tornado meets the Corvallis high football team here. He is a 195-pound senior. noted as first line safeties with Art Lee, Barnes and Vowcll in first reserve. Murray is slated to handle the Medford punting chores and Knight to boot the kickoffs and points alter touchdown. Medford completes three weeks of drills with bright out look but Spiegelberg is inclined to wait in appraisal of his ag gregation until he sees it un der fire. In meeting the Spartans, the Tornado takes on one of the fa vorites in the District 8, or Val ley league, race. Coach Lee Gustafson will bring a veteran backfield to Medford. The Spar tan line has been rebuilding. Corvallis is expected to run a T offense with line unbalanced to the left against the Hurricane which uses a multiple attack with unbalance to the right.

Six Players Added To Portland Meet PORTLAND (UPI) - The en try list for the fcSO.OOO Portland Open golf tournament contin ued to grow Wednesday with six more touring professionals added to the field. They are Tommy Aaron, Gainesville, Ga.; Tommy Ja cobs, Bermuda Dunes, Calif., and winner last week at the Salt Lake Open; Sam Carmi- sjpciDiHnrs Scrimmage Bolsters Ashland For Opener ASHLAND Ashland high's football Grizzlies looked for ward to their first 1963 encoun ter with bolstered optimism and enthusiasm today. The good feeling arose from a spirited and well - performed scrimmage yesterday. Ashland kicks off its 1963 cam paign on Friday with an 8 p.m. game at home against Shasta high of Redding, Calif. "I was amazed on how well things went," remarked Coach John Gray. They really looked Injuries Slowing IV Grid Plans CAVE JUNCTION - "If Il linois Valley is going to make it, this is their year." That's what on member of the Rogue league coaching fratern ity has remarked about the IV Cougar football team. But, Bill Stewart, the Cougar coach, sees it a bit differently: rne way we look, we may not be too tough to start, he said, "Maybe later we'll be able to give them a run later. In the second half (of the season) we should be pretty tough." Stewart has lettermen on hand for all but one guard posi tion. However, injuries have sidelined a couple of backs for a number of weeks and top line men up and down the forward wall have been slowed by per haps non-serious but still irrita ting and painful ailments. The coach thereby figures the Coug ars to be hurting for their early games. Heading the list of lettermen is Darryl Gellert, quarterback, who is a tremendous passing threat and gained statewide rec ognition last season. At ends Stewart has back Terry Mc Naught, who played the split flank, and Ron Kentfield, who was at the tight position. Tackle veterans who loom as likely starters are Howie Yar brough and Greg Petsch. They are pushed by Monte Pope, an other letterman. Lettcrman at a guard post is Tom Pickle. Alan Tucker, non letter sophomore is leading in the bid for the other guard spot. This position should be bol stered in midseason when Vince Scott, a letter winner, becomes eligible. Mike Miller is at center where he won a monogram but had only limited experience last year. Backfield vets include Hon Thornhill, fullback; John Baum- gnrdner, left halfback, and Walt Ziesche, wingback. Ziesche suffered a broken foot in practice and is figured to be out of action at least four weeks. Wes Nicholson and Jerry Earl are battling for the wingback job. Brad lleald, No. 2 quarter back who saw jnyvee duty last season, is lost for action for probably three weeks because of a broken finger. From 35 to 40 boys have been out for daily practices. While other sources rate IV ! the team to beat, Stewart looks for Phoenix to be head and shoulders above other Rogue league teams with a closer race than last year among the other schools. IV plays at Gold Beach on Friday. MAD WILING I.AlHKft CLASSIC I.EAfil'K Securtlv In. (4-0t 4, Betty Pcln hnlU 3fl); HoRUt Dul. i0-4 0. He If dp Culv ,MV Wooden Shoe ,3-11 3.

Gray turned the Bruins loose for 30 minutes of scrimmage with concentration on defense and 30 minutes with the empha- sis on offense yesterday. "They were eager, said uray oi riis Grizzlies. Passing Change On Monday Ashlanders went over defense against possible Shasta attack. Tuesday the work was on offense with more time on the passing attack, attack. Gray reported that re ceivers have had trouble catching the bullet passes of quarterback Dave Barger. So he had Barger feather the ball a bit with great results. Three heaves went for touchdowns. Gray has his probable offen sive and defensive lineups pret ty well worked out, along with the special combinations. How ever, he said that he is not an nouncing lineups until Friday afternoon at a school assembly. Feeling here is that Shasta's Wolves will find a different club than the one which they whip ped 42 to 7 last year at Redding. The Wolves reportedly have nine lettermen including the en tire backfield of 1962. Their line is reported heavy. Lakeview Encounters Burns Club LAKEVIEW - "We're kind of starting from scratch" is the report of Roy Robertson, new head coach of the Lakeview High school football Honkers. Robertson reported that there are nine Honker lettermen but that the club is "pretty inex perienced." He pointed out that the lettermen played little last year and there are "no real starters" back. The coach indicated hope that tremendous desire will make up for the shortage of inexperience. They're "really a willing bunch and they hit hard," he reported. Robertson said that the Honk ers will be "very small in the backfield" and added that "the problem is at the ends" were the lack of experience really is apparent. "We're in the process of trying to find some ends," the tutor stated. Bell at End The coach said that Ken Bell likely will be at one end spot. He played there last year just enough to letter. Robertson is high on the ability of Jeff Sul livan, a quarterback, who letter ed as a freshman in 1962 but said he'll probably use him as flnnkmnn Other lettermen are Vernon j Plato, quarterback; Bill Duke and John Tainter, tackles; Jim Ackerman, halfback; John Grif fin and Brad Carroll, guards, and Ray Harlan, center. At present Plato at 147 is heaviest among probable start ing backs. However, Rich Drink water, 170, may break in at full back after a game or two. Robertson comes to Lakeview after 13 years as an assistant coach at Nampa, Idaho. Pre vious to being at Nampa he was head coach at New Meadows, Idaho. He is a graduate of Col lege of Idaho. Lakeview plays at Burns on Saturday afternoon. This will be non-counting for the Rogue loop! Honkers. e. i. -i - i - .an. -i DI..mV.. ins i-2) I. Km Pukens 52.1. Roxy Ann Lnr ia-li 2.

Il ; I rlCHICY II I W 1 1 Footballers Touchable' HENLEY - "This is the best coachable squad I've had," says Len Weber, head mentor of the Henley High school football ag gregation. He reported that the 35 mem bers of his varsity squad "Rea lize their shortcomings" and "listen and work hard." Weber pointed to a lack of depth in his 1963 edition. He in dicated that his quarterback would be replaced for defense but that the other top players on his Hornet crew would have to play both ways. Henley's 12 lettermen include only three regulars from last year but the Stinger outlook has been bolstered by the appear ance of a couple of capable transfers, both of whom are likely starters. Returning regulars are D; Berry, guard, John R i g g moved from guard to tack and LeVoy Young, halfback. Other Lettermen Other lettermen are Ste Other lettermen are Stc Rand and Bugs Lewis, quarter back; Freddy Rodriguez, 127 pound halfback and linebacker; Duane Larson and Elton Schiro, ends; Bill Fisher, fullh a c k, i?T ""6""". "-mu-i, au Dick Johnson and David Lind- land, tackles. Transfers are Ro ger Vargo, 5-10, 1H5 pound guard, who was all-city last year in Denver, Colo., as a sophomore, and Kim Hale, half back from Chiloquin. Johnson, at 6-5 and 210 pounds, is the biggest of the "key boys." Weber regards Johnson, a defensive standout, and Riggs, as two of the most underrated players in Ihe Rogue league last year. Riggs, who weighed 210-215 pounds last year, reported this season at 180, and the reduction in weight has helped him. Rex Friend, a sub s t i t u 1 e i guard, is 6 feet and 220.

Rugged Challenge Don Gail, promising interior lineman up from the junior var sity, won't play this week, John son reported. He has had a boil on his knee. He was ticketed for defensive tackle work. Ger ald Branch, a defensive end or tackle, is a question mark con cerning the amount of duty he can see. He's had the flu this week and reportedly was due back in school today. Lebanon's Warriors loom as a rugged challenge for the Com ets. Warrior Coach Evan Richey does not give his team much chance against the larger schools in its own District 8. But, in Crater, the Warriors take on a school a bit smaller. And, Leb anon is deeper in the number of players who have seen varsity : competition with some 21 play I ers who have lettered. The Val ! ley league school also has some help from transfers. In meeting the Warriors, Cra ter extends to football a two-year-old athletic rivalry. The two schools have met the past two seasons in basketball. St. Mary's Faces Glide Saturday Football season for St. Mary's high of Medford will get under way on Saturday night.

The Badcers. whnsp fmiril,. quarter comeback in losing thn nose dowi was one oi last year s outstanding performances, may rise or iau on tne penormance of quarterback Harold Brandt, who was scheduled for the job last vear until innvnerienrori Ron Vanderkelen showed his ability. Vanderkelen and his favorite receiver, Pat Richtcr, are gone, but the Badgers have 26 letter men back to furnish plenty of line experience and depth, and some expert backs, including fullback Ralph Kurek, halfbacks Lou Holland, Bill and Ron Smith, Carl Silvestri and Jim Mettles. Myers Returns Northwestern could be thn national offensive leader on the strength of its passing with Tom Myers returning at quarterback and two fine ends, Gary Crum and Chuck Logan. Flanker back Paul Flatley, an adept receiver last year, has graduated. There will be some good linemen, nota bly guard Jack Overcko and tac kle Joe Szczecko. The usual problem of depth could hurt. Ohio State rates a title chance even though the Buckeyes aren't as well regarded as usual. But being the underdog could be a break. Paul Warfield, a crack erjack halfback, returns and so such standouts as Matt Snell, Al Parker, Ormonde Ricketts and Tom Jenkins. Illinois, though it had a 2-7 record last year, defeated both Purdue and Michigan State and it took all - out efforts by both Wisconsin and Southern Cali fornia to trip them. Most of lasl year's team. 27 lettermen, are back. The rest of the league doesn't figure in title consideration, but could be upsetting from time In time. Minnesota, a defensive gi ant last year, lost most of its mainstays except tackle Carl Eller, and looks like a second division club. Michigan should be improved with better size and depth, but Bump Elliott will have to use rookies at some key positions. Experienced Line Iowa has good experience in the line but coach Jerry Bruns will have to find a quarterback and fullback to get the Hawk eye attack moving. Michigan State has speed at halfbacks, but the team will be smaller, and Duffy Daughcrty needs a power fullback to re place George Saimcs as well as a signal caller. Purdue has a fine offensive potential in quarterbacks Ron Digravio and Gary Hogan and fullback Gene Donaldson, hut graduation decimated its two platoon system and defense will be uncertain. Indiana should be better de spite loss of almost the entire tackle corps after summer school due to grades. Marv Woodson, a standout halfback, will spearhead the attack. Notre Dame under new coach Hugh Devore also should be im proved and perhaps will finish high in the national rankings. The Irish will have good size and experience at almost every position and end Jim Kelly should be an All - America con tender. The return of two 245 pounders, Jim Snowdcn and Paul Costa, could help the hack field. i BUYS SHARE IX PACER I COLUMBUS.
