WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER
Pel Seniors See Final Prep
Action This Fridav Niaht
Klamath
Faces
GP Jinx
Klamath Union High School'
footballing Pelicans go into action
on the gridiron (or the Ileal time
this . season Friday night on Mo
doc Field as they meet the al
ways tough Grants Pass Cavemen
In a game that will close out the
prep playing days for 18 seniors
on coach John McGinnis' quad.
The Whitebirds are completely
out of the district football race
picture, but the "Never Say Die
Ktds" are out to avenge four
stiaight lickings that the Cavemen
have been handing out, including
last years's 20-0 shutout at Grants
Pass.
UNDOUBTEDLY
Caveman Coach Mel Ingram will
undoubtedly have his gridders up
as he does every year for Vie
Klemath-Grants Pass gridiron bat
tle, and for the first time in sev
eral seasons, this game will not
determine the district champion
as Medford sewed up the title with
a 13-0 win over Klamath a few
weeks ago.
The last victory that a Klamath
football eleven can claim was in
194J, when, after a layoff of two
seasons by the two schools, the
Pels swept to a 38-12 verdict over
the home standing Cavemen with
halfback Qaynor Huck running
wild against a helpless Caveman
defense.
Since then, however, It has been
an entirely different story, as In'
gram has driven his club to four
straight Including a 14-6 win In
1950, 33-0 in 1951, 7-0 In 1953 and
20-0 last year.
TRADITIONAL
This year's traditional fight
should be enlightened by the stel
lar line play of both clubs, as
Grants Pass has one of the finest
lines In the history of the school,
and Pel line coach Harry Russell
has a forward wall that has won
itself quite a lot of acclaim so far
this season.
There will be 10 senior linemen
playing their last high school foot
ball game this Friday evening as
Elvis Mitchell, Scotty Hancock.
Dick Clark, Marlin Causey, Wayne
Rodgers, Vince "Pee Wee" Reece,
Erwin Mullen, Larry Mathews,
Denny "Little Moose" Todd and
Art Badorek, will be seeing the
final gridiron action after four
years of high school playing.
In the Pels brickfield, coach
Gerald Bevans Will be using eight
gridders who are closing out their
final season of prep football as
Larry Yamell, Chuck Guptlll, Ger
ald Del Fatti, Larry Dearing, Ron
Conner, Jim Borden,. George Ar
nold. ' and Jack Sunitsch will be
seeing their final share of football
on Modoc Field as a Pelican foot
baller. ' '
THUNDERED
With these seniors and a star
studded load of Juniors, McGinnis
could very well get the Pels "up"
for the big game this Friday as he
has done several times this year,
including last Saturday when the
Pels were trailing 7-0 in Reno.
They came back from a sloppy
first half and thundered to a 19-7
win. The sign of how thev
played ball In the final chapter is
accounted for in the first down de
partment, where Reno couldn't roll
up one first down the entire sec
ond half against a spirited Peli
can line.
But Grants Pass will be Just
bout twice as tough for the Klam
athites as the Huskies were last
Baturday and with, Ingram, at the
helm of the Grants Pass coaching
staff trouble could be brewing for
the Pels at almost every turn,
even on their own home ground of
Modoo Field.
The Caveman's onslaught Will be
led by three backs who will be
thorns In the sides of the Pels
all night long as Don James.
younger brother of the University
of Oregon star and ex-GP stand
out Dick James, Lloyd Zimm and
Al Drews will be carrying the ma
jor share of the mail for the Cave
men. ODD MAKERS
Grants Pass has a 3-1-1 season
record compiled as they meet the
Pels inquest of making It 4-1-1,
something that odd makers don't
think will be too tough of a chore
for the number four team in the
AP prep poll. Klamath Is ranked
In the Number 10 spot.
The gridders from the valley
will be the favorites on almost
everyone's docket, with the excep
tions of the Pelicans, who are out
o stop the Cavemen and their
coach, Mel Ingram for the first

UCLA leads in scoring with 44.3

MOSCOW, Idaho 11 Tuesday
was payoff day at the University
of Idaho and the entire student
body turned out to collect the
"walk" Washington State College
was supposed to win In.
It was the final event of a wild
weekend celebration touched oft
by the Vandals' 104 football un
set of the Cougars last Saturday.
The "walk" was the payment of
a longstanding bet between the
two gridiron rivals. Each year
students from the losing school
must walk the nine long mile
separating the Palouse country
institutions.
For 27 of the last 29 years
(tnere were two ties) Idaho stu
dents made the trek.
Tuesday it was WSC's turn, and
Idaho made the most of it.
Dale Boose, WSO student body
president; Barry Jones, vice pres
ident, and Warren Pettlt and Bob
Harris of the WSC student news
paper were tapped for the hike.
They were followed by a dele
gation of 1,000 students who fol
lowed them through town and up
to the . campus here.
Besides the walk, the WSO stu
dent leaders literally paid In blood
for their football team's loss. The
four hikers, plus some CO of the
escort, donated a pint of blood
each to the Idaho Red Cross blood
drive which got under way Tues
day.
Wcsleyan University has kept
Trinity College from a perfect grid
iron season on three occasions In
recent years. The traditional rival
ry between the two teams dates
back to 1885.

another win." He pointed out Utah
beat Oregon earlier In the season
and Oregon in turn beat Idaho.
CORVALLIS, Ore. I A light
scrimmage was on tap for the
Oregon State Beavers Wednesday
as they practiced for the weekend
meeting with Southern California.

Cherberg said the antl-fumble
campaign will continue through

pare for Saturday a game here
with Oregon.
Beating the Cleveland Indians In
the World Series was nothing new
for the New York Giants. For the

they took 11 out of 21.
