Again, in 1963 the chase has followed to the form. And, Grants Pass and Medford High Schools will battle in a league unaie wnicn win aecide the race. Medford's Black Tornado and the Cavemen of Grants Pass run together in the champion ship conflict next Friday, Nov. 8, at the Medford Stadium. Props and backdrop for the concluding act of this season's District 6 A-l gridiron drama were set here Friday night after the Medford Hurricane blew aside the upset hopes of the Ashland Grizzlies 42-7. Outcome pulled the Tornadoes even, at 3-0 with the Cavemen in the conference standings. Vowcll Goes 80 Larry Vowell touchdowned on an 80-yard punt return, threw one touchdown pass and caught another and had a 75-yard jaunt to the goal called back as the Medfords reach the pay zone in every period. Bill Enyart also boomed to the end zone twice for Medford. Steve Toews and Greg Gandee got the other scores. Jack Mullen flung a TD pass. Bill Collins, doing his first varsity extra point kicking for the Tornado, cleared the cross bar and split the uprights on each of his six tries. Mike Torresan tabulated for the Bruins on a left end romp in the final minutes of the game and caught a pass from Dave Lohman for the bonus tally. . Medford had 21-0, 28-0 and 35-0 period margins. It was a down hill rumble for the Tornado in the second half as a host of gridders got into the game. Barnes Runs 59 The Big Wind capitalized for touchdowns on its first three chances with the ball and Mike Barnes got the triumph motion going with a 59-yard opening kickoff return deep into Ash land territory. Wyatt Intercepts Only twice did the Grizzlies get real drives going. They scored on the second one. A Curt Wyatt pass interception stopped the other in the second quarter. Yardage statistics were in Medford's favor with 293 net from scrimmage to Ashland's 168. First Tornado TD was on a two yard leap by Enyart. Then, Gandee sliced over the left side of the line, cut right and broke away for a 40-yard goalward run. A Vowell lefthanded aerial to Toews for 29 yards brought touchdown No. 3. Vowell's 80 yard scamper was the next scoring play. He broke loose up the middle and just ran away. This run followed by two series of downs the 75-yarder which was nullified. Enyart cracked scant inches for the third quarter marker after an Ashland fumble set the stage. In the closing quar ter a Mullen pass to Vowell in the right flat paid off for 34 yards and a score. Second Chance Barnes' long sprint came on Medford's second chance to run the kickoff. The Tornado quar terback had run back just 18 yards to the Tornado 32-yard line on Ken Preston's first thump for Ashland. The Griz zlies were penalized for offside and kicked again. Barnes took the ball on the Medford 15 and blasted up the field again. Tor resan finally hauled him down 26 yards from the Ashland goal.

Medford took over on its own 46 after Ashland failed tn eel first down on its first series with the ball. Murray and En yart each made three yards and Barnes passed to Murray for 11. Murray was dropped for a three-yard loss oh the Ashland 37. Then, the Whirlwind shook Gandee by the line on his scor ing play. Vowell to Toews Ashland's three plays netted zero and Roger Atherton punted a second time. Medford took possession with Vowell's nine yard runback to the Tornado 42. Ifl five plays the Tornado had another score. Gandee was stopped for no gain but Enyart crashed for five yards. An officials' pass inter ference ruling gave Medford 15 yards and first down on the Ash land 36. Enyart gained to the 29. From there Vowell passed to Toews who was wide open for the ball. Ashland fumbled on its two just one play after the second half kickoff. Medford was called for offside and set back to its seven. Murray got the five yards back immediately.

Thurman gained another yard but Mullen lost five on a fumble. Then, Mullen passed to Vowell again and the receiver maneuvered to the goal.

With Wyatt running for 12 yards and with Mullen completing four of five passes, two each to Mullen and Vowell, the Tornado whizzed from its 47-yard line to the Ashland four.
