Medford's offense thundered in

nadoes whirled 70 yards and
Halfback Jim Cox popped into
the end zone from the two.
No Second Try
Bill Collins' extra point boot
was blocked before he had
hardlv eot his foot into the
ball. What appeared an obvious
offside on Roseburg on the con
version kick was not called
against the Indians. Collins did
not get another try. "That was
the ball game," said Medford
Coach Fred Spigelberg.
This was only Roseburg's sec
ond grid verdict in history over
Medford in some 23 combats. It
evened the Indians for a 7-14
loss to the Hurricane in the
1962 quarterfinals. Roseburg,
bidding for its second mantle in
two years, next will be host
to Grant of Portland in the A-l
titular round of four.
Grant Beat West Linn yester
day 184.
The Tornadoes came close to
a touchdown that could have
meant triumph for them on an
electrifying passing play. With
four seconds until halftime on
the clock, Quarterback Mike
Barnes, who played it poised
and calm through the action,
hurled a long and mighty bomb
down field to Halfback Greg
Gandce. Leep stopped the Tor
nado receiver on the six-yard
line. This gain went for 54
yards. There was no chance
for another play. Had Gandee
had a couple of extra steps on
Indians he'd scored.
Official net aggregate statis
tics, kept in case the game had
ended in a tie, gave 314 to 248
yard margin to the Black Tor
nado. The Mail Tribune's unoffi
cial tabulation had Medford
ahead 249 to 214 on strictly
r ig and passing yardage.
Medford threatened in the
early minutes Friday, reaching
the Indian 18-yard line. Rose
burg followed with its only
severe first half threat, was
stopped by fumbling after going
to the Tornado 22 then kept
Medford with its back to the
goal until the waning moments
of the second period on the
punting of Halfback Young.
Four exchanges of the ball
came between the Roseburg TD
and the Medford scoring drive.
Cox reached the Indian end zone
with 8:38 on the clock. Medford
did not get the ball back from
the Chieftains until only 1:44
was left to play.
A couple of holding penalties
against Roseburg, a 13-yard run
by Barnes and a five-yard pass
play Barnes to Walt Verstratc
kept the Hurricane hopes alive.
But safety Jerry Remick inter
cepted a Barnes pass on the
Roseburg six-yard line with two
seconds left to play and the

Washington State took advan

Saturday the seventh consecu

whipped the Indians.
With second string quarter

Indians with his pass-run op

no contest from the start.
Stanford fumbled and lost the
ball three times in the first eight
minutes of play and the Cougars
turned these into a 24-yard field
goal, and a touchdown for a 10-0
first quarter lead.
They made it 12-0 early in the

Split Decision
By JACK CUDDY
NEW YORK (UPI) - Argen
tina s Gregono Peralta, contro
versial split-decision victor over
California's Wayne Thornton,
said today he'll grant Thornton
a return television fight if Ma
dison square Garden guaran
tees the winner a shot at the
light heavyweight crown.
The victory extended Pcral
ta's unbeaten string to 44 bouts.
Promoter Harry . Markson
wants the return 10-rounder on
Dec. 13, because Friday night's
Garden fight was so exciting
and controversial. Whether
Markson can guarantee the win
ner a title bout with champion
Willie Pastrano he did not say.
Dark-haired Peralta, 28, and
favored at 11-5, won an unpopu
lar verdict over blondish Thorn
ton, 24, because he had manag
ed to build up what seemed a
lead from the third round
through the seventh.
However, Thornton's thrilling
start in the first round and his
stronger finish caused many of
the 2,500 fans in the Garden to
boo the decision for almost five
minutes. Peralta's nearly closed
left eye, which trickled blood
from a cut on the lid, probably
stimulated some of the objec
tions. FORMER OLYMPIAN DIES

Fumble Recovered
A Medford recovery of a Rose
burg fumble on the Indian 39
presented Medford with a first
quarter opportunity. Barnes
rolled for nine yards. Enyart
ran four and three and Gandee
gained one. Barnes lost seven
yards trying to pass then hit
toews ior 11 but the ball was
two yards short of first down
and the Tornado lost possession.
Roseburg drove to the Med
ford 22 with the help of a 28
yard Beamer to Heeter pass.
But Burgess fumbled and Lynn
Flanders recovered for Medford.
In the second stanza Rosebure
was forced to punt after getting
to the Medford 36. Young lofted
a short kick which bounded for

downed it on the Medford one.

plays Halfback Tim Murrav

two yards lost in three plays.
One was a "Lone Ranger" spe

7-2 Record
Medford fought out to the 22
before Murray booted 31 yards
to the Roseburg 47. The Indians
worked to the Medford 39 and a
Young kick gave Medford pos
session on its 11. Enyart gained
three yards then ripped for 16
to the 30 on a draw. Then came
the long pass' which almost
scored for Medford.
The Tornado wrapped up its
season with a 7-2 record, losing
only to Boise, Idaho and Rose
burg. Indian gndders are now
9-1 for the fall. '
Medford went Into Friday's
skirmish rated No. 1 in polls
while the Chiefs were ranked
as No. 2. Roseburg's win could
not be classed as an upset. Al
though the Tornado held the
higher rating some forecasters
favored Roseburg in the game.
Field Fairly Good
Considering the heavy Novem
ber rains, the field was in fair
ly good condition for the con
test. The center of the gridiron,
bare of turf, had been rolled
and covered early in the week.
The Indians ran their plays
well mixed and Beamer was ef
fective with the deceptive belly
series. He had 75 yards, him
self, on 20 carries. Burgess, who
has averaged 10 yards per pack
was held by the Tornadoes to
33 yards on 13 chances. For
Medford Enyart toted 14 times
for 62 yards.
Roseburg headed In rushing
yards 155 to 111 and Medford in
passing 138 to 59.
Those Medford fans who feel
protest is possible after game
films are viewed can just forget
it. They can howl. But, even
if protest should be justified, it
won't do any good.

LOS ANGELES (UPI) -
Southern California's two great
running backs, Mike Garrett
and Willie Brown, each scored
a touchdown Friday night as
the Trojans came from behind
for a 28-22 football victory over
Oregon State.
The Beavers' passing combin
ation of quarterback Gordon
Queen and end Vern Burke
clicked for two touchdowns in
the second period and another
in the fourth period,. but other
wise Oregon State's passing at
tack was bottled up.
A sparse crowd of 30,846 at
the Coliseum witnessed a tre
mendous passing effort by
Queen when he and his favorite
target avoided the Trojans' de
fensive maneuvers. The three
touchdown passes thrown by
Queen brought his total to 16 in
nine games, one better than the
mark set by teammate Terry
Baker last season.

both teams scored in the final
period when Queen threw his
third touchdown pass to Burke

throws were for 12 and 22 yards.
