St. Mary"s entertains the Illi nois Valley Cougars in the first conference rivalry of the fall for both schools. Kickoff time is 8 p.m. The Crusaders of Medford re portedly will enter combat with lineup readjusted to compensate for injury to a number of play ers. IV also has its wounded but is reported pretty well over a preseason rash of ailments. Coach Bill McKibbin of St. Mary's still was uncertain on whether freshman Eric Jensen or junior Anthony Mete will be at quarterback to start, jensen started at the Dost last week although regular John Batzer who'd had a hand injury, did eet into action. When Batzer hurt his knee this week, Mc Kibbin called on Mete to learn the generalling duties. Scene Shifted Center Dan Kosmalka, with a turned ankle, and guard John Lucas, with a back injury, join ed the ailing yesterday. McKib bin shifted the scene of prac tice from St. Mary's area of rocks and sawdust to the lawn at Hawthorne park and Crusad ers drilled without cleats. But that did not stop the hurts. The coach has named Wayne Cook to start at center. It's felt that Lucas will be able to be at guard along with Steve Cook. Mike Hutchinson is still hobbled by a knee injury in the Glcndale game and John Renshaw likely will ooen at his tackle with Randy Corliss at the other. End Ray Richter has a knee nun too, but may be ready for de fensive work on Saturday. McKibbin said earlier this week, "Quite a few will have to be iron men and go botn ways. Corliss may be at linebacker filling the defensive gap left by Batzer. Some other interior line man will be shifted to Corliss's spot. The coach indicated that Steve Cook, who's had some duty at defensive halfback may be used on front wall defense. Ron Becker has had the flu but it is thought he'll be on hand for action. Work on Passing We're trying to get our pass ing attack down better," Coach Bill Stewart reported from Illi nois Valley. "We've had a cou ple of pretty good practice ses sions," Cougar skipper said. "I hoDe we're ready to go." In IV's Darryl Gellcrt fans will see one of the top passers of the state Inst year. The nasscs haven't clicked quite so well this season but Stewart reported t h e Cougar offense "doing better."

Hedrick 9th Tips Crater CENTRAL POINT - Hedrick Junior high ninth grade football team scored in the first and third quarters here last night to down the Crater freshmen 14 to 7. Bill Atwood scored both touch downs for the Hornets, on a one- yard sneak and on a pass for 25 yards from Phil Hackworth. Hackworth ran both extra points. The Comet tally was in the third quarter. Joe Cavin inter cepted a pass and galloped 60 yards to the goal. Rick Froh- reich bucked the bonus. Comets .Stiffen Hedrick started, off the open ing kickoff, as if it would make the game a waltz awav but the Crater defense soon firmed. The Cornels had stout work from tackle Don Molloy and linebacker Frohreich in holding down the Hornet charge. Hedrick controlled the ball most of the first half with Cra ter getting lo run only three or four scries of plays. In the sec ond half it was a dogfight. Said Crater Coach Bill Piche, "We lost to a very fine Hedrick ball club. They are well bal anced and it will take a fine team to beat them." De John, Chuvalo In Television Bout LOUISVILLE, Kv.

"Where's George Fox?," someone asked yesterday at the Medford Kiwanis club's lunch eon. The question was prompted by the remarks of Ted Schopf, Southern Oregon college athletic director, concerning the Red Raiders football game this Sat urday night at Ashland with that school. George Fox college is located at Newberg. It was formerly known as Pacific college. The name was changed several years ago, prompted at least in part by the fact that Pacific university is not far away. The Quaker school has had a policy of athletic de-emphasis for a considerable period. Now, there's a move to make the school more competitive under Earl Craven, football coach and athletic director. Craven, a grad of the Newberg school, who comes from a coaching post at William Penn college in Iowa, reportedly has begun a talent search. "We want to play and hold our own with small college foot ball teams in the northwest," Cravens has said. The Quaker mentor reportedly has 18 boys on his squad from out ot stale and Schonf savs he's heard that some of them are from the East. Schopf told the Medford Ki wanis club that Southern Ore gon is "looking for a good game" with George Fox. GOULD TO ll-N Dill Gould Is the new sports editor of the Klamath Falls Herald and News. He replaces Jerry Waggoner who returns to his home state of Texas lo take a job at Amarlllo. Gould goes to Klamath Falls from Oregon City and was formerly with the KosohurR Ncws-Kevlew. B01SK CHANT "Boise, Boise" was the chant of some Ashland fans Monday evening at the Grizzlies' sopho more game here with Medford. They taunted the Tornado sophs with last week's varsity defeat. The Ashlanders might have been reminded that "Shasta" happen sometimes. JV PROGRAMS NEEDED It really would be helpful If there were mimeographed pro grams, not necessarily fancy, tor the sophomore and Jayvee contests. From comments at the game and from one letter we've received. It's certain that fans would appreciate a means of Identifying players. And, It cer tainly would help a sports writer by saving the problem of having to check on who's who during and after games particularly j w hen coaches are not sure. In a number of rases, of whom was wearing what number. No, Fred, we don't think Its up to the roaches to see that . the programs are printed. iVOTK IN POLL I Keith Johnson, Crater high, (for the A-l schools, and Bill Tornado Salem's Class A-l champion of 1962 against the runnerup. That re matching in an inter-district game provides one of the top prestige attractions this evening on the Oregon high school foot hall scene. The adversaries are the Med ford Black Tornado, the title winner, and the North Salem Vikings, who were beaten in the final game. They collide in Salem with 8 0 clock tne kickoii lime, mis scuffle will be on Bennett field, adjacent to South Salem high. The fracas, although without league or district meaning, is significant in several ways. North, along with seeking a measure of requital for the championship game defeat, will aim to hang onto its rating as No. 1 team in the state. Only one week ago Medford had that top ranking. A triumph over the Viks might not get it back but the Tornado could blow the Salems off the perch and re gain some lost prestige. Can They Come Back? Foremost in the minds of Medford fans, however, is the question: "Can the Hurricane whirl up a comeback after suf fering a crushing defeat?" The Tornado was thumped by Boise last week end by 25 to 0. Also, the encounter is one of several which will help give a picture on how Southern Oregon conference teams can expect to fare against each other. Last week the Valley, leaguers of North Salem knotted Grants Pass of the Southern circuit. Next week the Vikings meet Kla math Falls, another SO confer ence member. Medford offensive and defen sive lines have been somewhat lightened by a switch to full pla tooning. How the revamped By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribune Sports Editor McKibbin, St. Mary's, for the A-2s, are among those voting this season in the Oregon Jour nal football rating poll. Another A-2 ballot is being cast by Larry Maurer, Philomath. Maurer is an ex-Illinois Valley and South ern Oregon college athlete. TOO BIG. TOO STRONG "Too big and too strong for us" Is the way Coach Al Akins of Southern Oregon college has described the Weber State foot ball team which defeated South ern Oregon 40 lo 32 last Satur day. COMEBACK FORECAST Don't get the idea that the Marshfield star is completely fading just because the Pirates, powerhouses in the past, appear to have fallen on lean times. Says Ken Hess of the Coos Bay World, "I think Marshfield will come back real strong next year." Hess repotted that coach Pete Susick, with just 12 letter- men and a limited force of seniors, has gone along with his juniors. He's changed the offense all around and is bring ing the Buccaneers along slow ly. Next year he may have 30 to 40 lettermen with whom to work. Prospects Good PORTLAND (UPD-The State Game Commission said today deer prospects appear good for opening day Saturday as a good portion of some 260.000 hunters prepared to take to the woods. Caution against forest fires was re-emphasized by state of ficials because warm, dry weather this week has raised the fire danger. The first two weeks of the season will be for bucks, with holding unit permits eligible to take deer of cither sex from Oct. 12 through Oct. 20. The commission said deer population were on a par with last year in most areas, and down slightly in a few others.

In the meantime, Bobby Wa ters who had been working out with the defensive backfield, re turned to quarterbacking in drills Wednesday. The Forty Niners want to have somebody handy should starter John Bro die be forced out of action. Cleveland Favorite By United Press International The Cleveland Browns, early surprises of the National Foot ball league season, are whop ping favorites to win their third straight game Sunday, but it looks like tough going for the two other perfect - record clubs the Chicago Bears and St. Louis Cards.
