Bedford, Grants Pass in Friday
Tangle Here for SO Loop t Title?
Medford High School's home
football season closes on Friday
night. And, whether the Black
Tornado will roll on to other
fields of conflict depends on how
the tide of battle goes.
Grants Pass High's Cavemen
are the adversaries on this de
cision night at the Medford Sta
dium. This will be the big game
of the fall on the local grass
and the big one thus far in
1963 for the schools involved.
For, when the kickoff whistle
blasts at 8 p.m. the Southern
Oregon Conference champion
ship and a berth in Oregon Class
- A-l playoffs will be at stake.
Winner will go on into state
quarterfinals from District 6.
The gridiron campaign will be
over for the loser.
There's statewide prestige rid
ing on the hassle, too with
Medford holding down the top
Oregon prep rating in its class
and Grants Pass ranked as No.
2 and 3. And, it is anticipated
that grid attendance will be
largest for one game in the his
tory of the conference.
Like Records In Loop
Grants Pass and Medford en
ter the league titular scuffle
with like records of 3-0 in the
loop. The Cavemen of the Cli
mate City down the river are
undefeated and once tied over
a slate of eight encounters. Med
ford carries a record of six vic
tories and one loss. The setback
was suffered out of state.
On the basis of the ratings and
overall record against common
opposition, Medford is judged
slight favorite for the fray. But,
its not enough to really call it
upset should GP be the victor.
A very wet field, it is figured,
would add a little advantage to
the Black Tornado.
Whirlwind Coach Fred Spieg
elberg, nevertheless, is not par
ticularly buying this Medford
favored bit. "We're so even this
year," he remarked. "It could
be the best ball game in several
years."
"We're in good shape," Spieg
elberg added. "And, we're wait
ing for the game."
Speed Versus Power
In generality, "speed against
power" is the billing. Grants
Pass asset is the speed. Med
ford represents the power. Both
aggregations have some depth
of talent.

line cracks the way for fast

each other on an explosive crew.
Isabell has speed and strength,
Ireland burning speed and Van
Koten shifty elusiveness.

the line and Bill Enyart and
Tim Murray in the backfield.
