That was a big question Fri day night after the unshrinking Fireballs, unawed by Ihe state's prep rating polls and steadfast in purpose, threw a tremendous scare into the Whirlwind for the second successive season. Medford, taking advantage of a short, deflected punt and ap plying brute power, battered 27 yards in the third quarter for the evening's only touchdown to squeak by the Central Pointers 6-0 in Southern Oregon confer ence football at the Medford stadium. Tht Tornadoes escaped again but not before Crater followers, who had said, "We just hope the boys give Medford a good game," got their money's worth plus a substantial bonus. No Fluke "It proves last year's game was no fluke," declared Comet Coach Keilh Johnson of the banging, bruising battle. The "lucky" Hurricane tabu lated off its only real opportu nity of the night. Otherwise, it got no closer to Ihe touchdown zone than Crater's 29-yard line. Meanwhile, the blazing Fire balls, who commanded the first half, reacheti the Medford 11 and 29 in the second quarter. A schiicI to the Mcilford-Cra-ter high varsity football game this week end is slated on Mon day. Junior varsities of Ihe two schools will contend. The game will he at 7 p.m. at Ihe Crater field in Central Point. Medford took over the ball on Ihe Comet 27 after a Roger Ncufeld punt was tipped by Tor nado defender Lance Casebcer and traveled only 20 yards. Bill Enyart gainetl two yards for the Tornado. Mike Barnes, run ning from left half instead of quarter, made one yard then lipped off eight for first down on Ihe lfi. Enyart went for 12 and first down and goal on the four. Enyarl made one more, Tim Murray cracked for two and Enyart poked the final yard lo Ihe goal. George Dames' conver sion kick attempt failed. Didn't Quit "Our kids hit hard and didn't quit," said Johnson of his Com ets. "Our kids just played good football. They have nothing to be ashamed of . . . They all were tremendous ... It was a tremendous team effort . . . Maybe, some day we'll win." Said Fred Spiegelberg, coach of Ihe Black Tornado: "We were lucky. Every year il's the same slory." The Cornels were "like Chi nese bandits," the Tornado men lor staled. He expressed Ihe feeling that Ihe Central Point club played "over their heads." Hut, he was quick to add, "They are a good football learn. I hope Ihey keep on going." It was the Kllh straight win for Medford since Crater look the first game between t h e schools back in 1953. Medford survived last year by a scant 7-0. There was contention that a soggy field helped the Corn els. This time the turf was dry. White Stands Out Rav White was an "all over the field" defensive standout for Ihe Fireballs. White calls the defensive signals for the Crater club and Johnson said that against Medford Friday "It was the best joh he's ever done."
