MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. OREGON FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1963 Phoenix Pirates Skirmish In Rogue Loop Fray at IV PHOENIX - "We've got to win if we're going to go on." That's how Coach Jack Wood ward and his Phoenix High School Pirates view the situa tion as they go into a crucial gridiron contest tonight. Phoenix contends against Illi nois Valley at 8 p.m. at Cave Junction in a skirmish felt to be the Rogue league ruckus of the season. The Pirates and the Cougars each are 4-0 in the cir cuit and the winner is expected to go on to the crown. But, the Buccaneers believe that they have the tougher con flicts on their remaining slate. "I think the team which blocks and tackles best is going to win, like 90 per cent of games are won," commented Wood w a r d. He added, "I can be wrong." He mentioned that "mistakes" or "breaks" could have a big bearing. Tough Assignment "It's a tough assignment. There's no doubt about it," said Woodward of the game to night. "Illinois Valley, we know, has the best club they've had." Woodward sort of challenged the billing of the game as a test of Phoenix power against IV speed, passing and finesse. "I don't think they have any more speed than we have," he remarked. And - "I don't think IV can discount our passing." He pointed to Pirate passing as a threat which was effective against Eagle Point in the best game Phoenix has played so far this season. The Pirates will take a strong defense against the Cougars. "Our defense has really been outstanding this year," Wood ward pointed out. The only touchdown scored against the Bucs was against its fourth de fensive team. Woodward said he felt Phoenix pass defense has been good. Rivals have com pleted aerials "but not that long touchdown pass." Grcnnan Shines Defense has had more atten tion than offense this week with particular work on pass de fense." Woodward reported said that, after viewing films of last Fri day's game with Eagle Point, it was felt that Dennis Grennan probably was the most outstand ing player on the field. "His blocking was really great." YOU SUSPECT YOUR CAR IS LOSING POWER? ADD 80 to your motor oil and drive on full power again! When an engine gets dirty it loses power.

Stanford, Notre Dame Clash Again By SCOTT BAILLIE UPI Sports Writer A series that ended in bitter ness resumes Saturday after a 21-year cooling off period when Notre Dame comes to Stanford for a nationally televised inter sectional game. The Fighting Irish, who upset Southern California 17-14 earlier this season, are 12 1-2 point choices to drop Stanford to its fifth straight defeat. The teams last met in 1942 and the Irish handed Stanford such a rugged 27-0 lashing that the Indians cancelled a 1943 re match. But the game wouldn't have been played anyway, as the Indians dropped their foot ball program that season be cause of the war. Three other intersectional clashes and one Big Six contest feature the rest of the weekend program. Fourth ranked Illinois is a 10-point favorite to down UCLA tonight in Los Angeles while on Saturday Syracuse is rated seven points ahead of Oregon State and its Army by 13 over Washington Mate. Troy VS. Bears Southern California, opens de fense of its Big Six title when it takes on California at Berke ley. The Trojans who moved back into the UPI's top ten after stunning Ohio State last Saturday, are 13 1-2 point selec tions over the Bears. This marks the third meeting between Notre Dame and Stan ford. The Irish are seeking not only their third straight win over the Indians but also their third victory of the season against Big Six opposition. So far they have downed Southern Cal and UCLA, 27-12. Illinois, undefeated and once- tied by Ohio State, invades Los Angeles with a team that is rated big and powerful with good balance," by the UCLA scouts. The Bruins (1-4) are heartened by the fine quarter- backing which Mike Haffner turned in last Saturday against Notre Dame but seem to be up against too much power. Oregon State, facing a typical ly tough Syracuse team that has won four out of five, has been working to give quarter back Gordon Queen as much defense on passing as possible. But coach Tommy Prothro ex pects trouble with Syracuse's "big rush." Army, also a winner in four out of five, tuned up for wobbly Washington State by bombing hapless Wake Forest, 47-0. The Cougars have lost two in a row including a 13-8 upset by San Jose State after battling Iowa to a 14-14 tie. Ace QB's Vie The Southern Cal - California game matches two of the wet coast's top quarterbacks. It is Pete Beathard for the Trojans and Craig Morton for Cal. Beat- PARIS (UPI) Sebastian Miguel, a 32-year-old unherald ed Spaniard, led Jack Nicklaus by one stroke and favored Ar nold Palmer by three today going into the second round of the Canada Cup and Interna tional Trophy golf matches which were promoting anything but their supposed world-wide goodwill. There was nothing but com plaints from the golfers after Miguel fired a six-under-par 66 to take the individual lead while Nicklaus with a 67 and Palmer with a 69 gave the United States a tie with Cana da for the team lead with to tals of 136. Directed at Gallery The complaints were not di rected at the two famous Yanks but at the gallery of 5,000 which followed Nicklaus and Palmer. They were so slow getting off greens and fairways and so completely ignored the golfers playing both ahead and behind the two U.S. stars that the other competitors were forced to wait for long periods of time. Those behind the U.S. pair took nearly 5 Mi hours to play the St. Nom La Breteche course, 12 miles outside Paris.

Tex Willis broke over right guard and ran 45 yards to the goal. . Although the fracas was a "dogfight," it was dominated on both offense and defense by the Ashlanders. The Cubs controlled the ball. The game ended the season for the Crater Frosh. They had a record for the fall of three wins, two losses and one tie. r i ..$of9 new bmi in 9 spotts r' "This sleek, new DATSUN combines performance, beauty and finished workmanship never before avail able in a true Sports Car ...at such a low price!

Oregon, sparked by the daz zling Mel Renfro who looked his best last Saturday in lead ing the Ducks to a 28-12 win over Arizona, rates a 3 1-2 point edge over the Washington Husk ies in another leading west coast game. San Jose seeks to "get well" this Saturday at vastly improved Idaho which just got through routing the University of the Pacific, 64-6.

Ashland goes against the Peli cans with the two victories to its credit while Klamath has been defeated on all six outings of its season. Against a common foe, how ever, Klamath has the better record. Grants Pass beat the Pels 12-0 and 19-0 and downed Ashland 34-6. The Cavemen touchdowned once in each con test with KF on a fluke play. Grants Pass pretty well toyed with the Bruins. Reports filtering from Klam ath Falls are that the Pelicans are really fired to break their long losing streak. In the Lithia City the Grizzlies are just as ambitious to extend It for the Pels. Bounce Back Aim "This is one that we'd like to bounce back on," remarked John Gray, the Bruin tutor. He said that a good showing to night, after last week's loss to Grants Pass, would bolster con fidence and put AHS in better tettle to face Medford one week hence. Gray reported Grizzly players "real enthusiastic. Drills have been aimed at stopping the pass ing of John Parisotto and the running of Mike Kitching. Gray reported Fullback Don Scholer sidelined for a second week end by his ankle injury. Linebacker Buddy Gail has had a cast on a sprained thumb but may be able to go defensively for Ashland. End Glenn Smith has an injured finger but should get into action. Ashland is 2-4 for the season and 0-1 in the conference. KF has 0-2 standing in the circuit. Possible starters offensively for Ashland are Bill Jury and Rick Clark, ends; Jack Gruber and Joe Raynes, tackles; Bill Wiley and John Yaple, guards; Jim Conklin, center; Dave Barger, quarterback, Dennis Ekwall or Roger Atherton, left halfback; John Buck, fullback, and Mike Torresan, right half, Once upon a time, according to folks out West and in the nation's capitol, a prosperous timber processing firm called Potlatch Forests, Inc., thought kindly of giant Braces Eddy Dam on the north fork of Idaho's Clearwater River. The compa ny's friendliness was known in high places in the Gem State as well as on Capitol Hill. A company engineer was discharg ed for being unfriendly, in fact. when he publicly opposed the dame because it would cause tremendous damage to the Clearwater's elk, deer, fish, and wilderness resources. But final ly, to bring the story to a close, the dam was authorized last year and now, somewhat sadly, friendly Potlatch Forests, Inc., is calling Braces Eddy a mon ster it did not bargain for. A WIPE-OUT Reporting to his directors late this summer, the president of the firm said construction of Bruces Eddy will jeopardite the company's operations at Lewis ton, Idaho, "probably to t h e point where permanent opera tion of the sawmill and plywood plants . . . will be questionable from an economic viewpoint." The planned 633-foot concrete barrier, the official said, would boost costs for getting the firm's logs to the mill and would flood much of its timberlands. He rec- ommenaea mat the company urnii expansion of the Lew Iston mills and hold Its funds for pos sible Investment at some other site. NO NEWS Conservationists, unlike Pot latch Forests, Inc., recognized the monstrousness of Bruces Eddy long ago. So did the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, which said in a I960 report that the dam would "either inundate, isolate, or cause irreparable damage to all steelhead trout and chinook salmon spawning habitat in the North Fork Clear water Basin . . . steelhead fish ing would be eliminated in the drainage, sport catch in the Clearwater and Columbia Rivers reduced . . . and the drainage's c o n t r i bution to commercial catches in the Lower Columbia lost. . ." Also, the elk and deer herds would be reduced as much as 40 per cent. FISH TOO Counts of fish at the Ice Har bor. Dam,, downstream, from Lewiston and the mouth of the Clearwater, shows that Clear-water-bound fish made up 48 per cent of all the fish that passed the dam for spawning in me upper reaches of the famed Salmon River, the Snake and other unobstructed tributaries. The Clearwater run of fish, clearly is equal to or surpasses that of the Salmon River. Con struction of Bruces Eddy would destroy most of the migratory fish runs, because steelhead and salmon, under present knowl edge, cannot be passed success fully over dams much greater than 100 feet In height. Bruces Eddy would isolate about SO per cent of the present and fu ture potential salmon and steel head spawning water of the en tire Clearwater River drainage. MONEY. MONEY Although Congress authorized construction of Bruces Eddv only last year, about $2.1 mil lion already has been spent on advance project planning and design. That involves a pressure play on the Congress. The intent is to get sufficient public funds committed to a project to con vince Congress that the con struction must bo ahead. The Corps of Engineers now wants $6 million in its 1964 appropria tion io Degin construction of the $195 million project. ACT NOW The House Appropriations Committee under Congressman Clarence Cannon (Mo.), and the Senate Appropriations group un der Senator Allen J. Ellender (La.) have yet to act on this Item in the Corps' money bill. All Interested conservationists are invited to write and ask the committee to review the Bruces Eddy project; too much is at stake to write off that much of our resource. THE ANGLER'S LOG Those anglers who are look ing for a sure thing that is also pretty easy are advised to try any of the lakes still open. This is the last week end and they're all putting out fish like it was opening day. Steelhead fisher men, read on! Klamath River Several runt of fresh flah have moved Into the Happy Camp area during the past week. They seem to be holding in the pools and riffles and are being taken on lures or bait. Lure Jensen's Little Jewel and Little Sneak are doing the business. The fish are running fairly large fish of 4 and 5 pounds are common. Nightcrawlers are taking a good share of these fish. The Happy Camp guide reports that he's never seen so many fish showing at this time of the year, and ang lers are getting all the action they want.

That was NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle's assurance fol lowing his announcement that the league's 14 clubs have been granted permission to experi ment with presenting games on theater-TV screens in 1964 and 1965. Rozelle said the league's first experiment with theater- TV could be with Its 133 cham pionship game Dec. 29. In making the announcement, Rozelle emphasized the league's intention to continue its current policy of home television for all away games and for home games except within a 75-mile radius of the city in which the game is played. a few days but It la expected to be in shape again soon and full of eager, silvery warriors.
