Some Pelicans Who Will Oppose Black Tornado
By PAUL HAINES
In preparation for the big bat-
tie of tho year Friday night
against tho Black Tornado over
at Medford, the K-men went
through an intensive drill Tues-
rfv nftrrnnnn at Modoc field.
The Pelicans were made fami
liar with possible plays Medford
would use by Coach Cook, with
the boys more or less walking
through their assignments to en
able them to get a better idea of
the right and wrong thing to do
against various piays. ino ior

Sgt. J. L. Christensen of the
public relations personnel at
the Marine Barracks was down
at Vallejo for the Leatherneck
Skymaster tilt and brought his
observations of the game back
to us. We think Chris turned
in a good job and here it is:
Seen from the Vallejo press
box Saturday night as they
broke into the black side of the
ledger for the first time with a
14-12 win over the Skymasters
of Fairfield-Suisun, the Klam
ath Falls Marines showed more
spirit and aggressiveness than
they displayed in any of their
previous games.
Indicative of this spirit is the
ract tnat tne Marines were penal
ized for the first time. Besides
two clipping penalties of
yards each, the men were caught
ottsiae no Jess than five times,
wnicn proves that they were
charging and raring to go.
The backs, in gaining their
127 yards, had to fight for every
yard. Mahan made the longest
Marine gain from scrimmage on
an off-tackle smash, which was
good for 13 yards. He was stop-
yuu momentarily aooui tnree
limes, out by twisting and driv
ing was not down until four
Skymasters bowled him over.
Bancer might have been away
nao. ne received sumcient down
field blocking on one punt re
turn, i-racucaiiy alone, amid
horde of Skymasters, he dis
played some fancy broken field
running, as tne cagey tailback
sped about 20 yards.
The best weapon the Leather-
necus possessed in the tussle
were the punting toes of Mahan
and Bancer. Bancer's quick
kicks got the boys out of a couple
of bad holes, especially one boot
mai iopk ine sitymaster secon
aary ott-guard and sent them
reeling back about 50 yards after
the Marines had stopped a drive
near the Leatherneck goal.
Marine passers received better
protection in mis tut, and Dravin
came up with a nice catchyon a
pass from Bancer which helped
set up the first Leatherneck
clure.

by scouters of the Medford
games that they are inclined to
feature quick opening plays and
end sweeps wltn plenty ol down
field blocking. They have not
been too successful in the pass
ing department to date, but as
Coach Cook pointed out, this
does not mean that their aerial
attack may not click Friday
night, and the Pels must be on
the alert at all times.
After this drill in defensive as
signments, the boys ran through
every play they have in the
book, and a few that aren t. in an
effort to get their tricky attack
functioning like clockwork
against the Black Tornado.
Blocking assignments were par
ticularly stressed and Rollie
Berry heaved some beautiful
spiral passes. In this game.
Berry and Bob Perkins will al
ternate at the quarteroacK Derm,
both to give Perk an opportunity
to do a little running and to put
Berry in a better position to pass.
Bob Redkey will take care of the
right half position and Bud
Biehn will be in the fullback slot
In the forward wall. Monroe
Kimsey, regular left end, may
not start tne tut as he is sun
nursing a bad cold. In lieu of
Kimsey, Cook will go along with
Jim Pope at the flanker position
and Jim is capable replacement
along with being speedier than
Kimsey. Chuck Thurman will
definitely be in there at right
end, and if he plays the game he
did against Grants Pass, and
there's no reason why he
shouldn't, the Medford boys had
better look to their laurels in the
ass snatching category. Dean
lason and George Long will oc
cupy the tackle berths and both
have shown up exceedingly well
in previous games. Bill Wilson
will team with Harold Wirth to
plug the guard positions and
they should take care of their
duties nicely. Wirth has been a
tower of strength in the line in
two of the previous games and
wnson is equally emcient. Rog
