SEAT BACKS REPLACED Students of Vern
Voss's carpentry class at Medford Senior High
school in a project of Thursday and Friday
last week replaced the two by four-inch back
rests in Sections C and D of the west grand
stand of the high school stadium with two by
sixes to make them more comfortable. With the
lumber provided by Elk Lumber company and
work donated by the students no tax money
was involved in the improvement. Voss, right,
supervises and holding two by six, from left,
are Gary Bendickson, Ken Hackworth and
Larry Scoville. Behind them are Tony Dahl,
Greg Becken and Steve Cutting (behind
Scoville). Dr. Leonard Mayfield, superintend
ent of schools, reported that the back row of
the bleachers in front of the west grandstand
has been removed so that the view of spectators
in the first row of the grandstand won't be
obstructed. Next season these bleachers will
be moved and will be used by grade school
youngsters. New bleachers will be built for
use in front of the grandstand.

Waivers Asked
On Ferguson
PITTSBURGH (UPI) - The
Pittsburgh Steelers Tues day
asked waivers on two-time all
America fullback Bob Fergu
son, the first Negro player ever
to win the Maxwell Award.
The Steelers said Ferguson,
Pittsburgh's No. draft pick in
1962, was placed on waivers
"with the nope of making a
deal."
"We are trying to make a
deal with Minnesota," a team
spokesman said. "We hope he
isn't claimed by another club
until we can work something
out."
Ferguson, a 5-11, 220-pound
fullback who was the enigma
of many an opposing team
while playing for Ohio State
University, had been out with
injuries on three different occa
sions last year and saw little
action with the Steelers.
Ferguson
Claimed by
Minnesota
By United Press International
The Minnesota Vikings are
giving Bob Ferguson a second
chance.
Ferguson, a former All-America
and winner of the Maxwell
Trophy at Ohio State two years
ago, was placed on waivers by
the Pittsburgh Steelers Tues
day and claimed by the Minne
sota Vikings.
aince coming to the Steelers
as their top draft choice in
1962, Ferguson had been inef
fective. He also was nubliclv
berated by teammates and
Coach Buddy Parker during his
first season for his sub-par
play.
Seturek Signed
The Cleveland Browns an
nounced that linebacker Mike
Lucci has been placed on the
injured reserve list and Stan
Sczurek has been signed to re

torn knee ligaments against
New York last Sunday and will
be out for a month.
Sczurek, who formerly played
at Purdue, comes to the Browns
from the Cleveland Bulldogs of
the United Football League.
Coach Allie Sherman of the
New York Giants received
some bad news when he
learned that flanker Frank Gif-
ford, defensive tackle Dick
Modzelewski and punter Don
Chandler received assorted in
juries in last Sunday's game
against Cleveland, billord, who
sprained his back, is a doubtful
starter against Dallas Sunday.
The others may play.

luesday night when the Dodg

to the New York Mets, traded
outfielder Don Dillard to Toron
