ASHLAND The Klamath Union
Pelicans closed the curtain on the
1958 football season with a valiant
but futile stand against the Ash
land Grizzlies here Friday night
as a patched-up squad of Pels
were defeated 33-12, to wind up in
the Southern Oregon Conference
basement.
The contest, which saw the Peli
cans utilize the services of a num
ber of eager freshmen called up
as replacements for injured KU
regulars, broke up a tie for the
last place position in conference
standings. Ashland, 3-5 for the sea
con, stepped into fourth place,
while the Pelicans 1-8, tumbled off
the bottom step. Meanwhile, at
Grants Pass, Medford earned the
right to enter the state quarter
finals after holding the Cavemen
to a scoreless tie. The Tornadoes
were awarded playoff rights by
virtue of yardage gained in the
test. The Medford-Grants Pass tie
left the SOC conference lead split
between the two.
In the dressing-room following
the ill-fated match with the Griz
zlies Pelican coach Andy Knudsen
eaid, "The boys p 1 a y e d as hard
as they could the thing that
beat us was the lack of experi
ence. Still, if it hadn't been for
the freshmen it's hard to say what
might have happened. Do you re
alize that if we had to play a
game tomorrow we would have
only two players that started the
game against Marshfield at the
first of the season Weber (Ron)
and Story (Don), in the lineup.
Injuries have really hurt us this
year. Tonight we lost Olvera, In
iley and Larry Bunyard."
Bunyard, who as Knudsen put
It, "Gutted it out," following a leg
Iniury incurred in practice, was
kicked in the head during the
game and required a doctor's at
tention after the bout. Althougn nis
injury was not deemed serious, the
hardy KU end was taken to the
hospital to be kept over night for
observation.
Ron Olvera, a halfback, twisted
an ar.kle that sidelined him and
tackle Nick Insley, a mainstay in
the KU line, was . downed wan a
"hip-pointer."
Knudsen was full of .praise for
the freshmen who performed so
fcU in their relief roles. "Gary
Buchholz (quarterback), David
Stippich (end), Earl Brinson (half
back) and Ken Cooper (lineman)
all did a fine job. We can expect
ereat things of them in the
suture," stated Knudsen.
"Ron House played a good game,
both defensively and offensively
and so did Insley. Bill banto
did a fine job of running tonight
and he was helped a lot by insley.
Gary Burt, Wayne Dennis and Lar
ry Bunyard have to be compliment'
d for the work they did on de
fense," he added.
The opening seconds of the game
looked black for the Whitebirds as
Alan McKinnis. the Grizzly full
back, broke away on the play
fo tow ns the Pel kickoltana
robbed 35 yards before being
hunted down in a last ditch stand
by Ron House. Four plays later
however, alter losing 30 yards on

McKinnis broke through the mid
dle and went 48 vards for an
Ashland TD. Halfback Steve
Gray's conversion run missed and
the score was lied 6-6 with 1:20
left in the first period.
In the second frame penalties
left their marks on the Pelican
advance as Earl Brinson hauled
in an aerial from Quarterback Jack
Riley and romped 46 yards for
payoirt, almost. A clipping penal
ty on the Pels called the play
oacK ana tney had to start over.
hive plays later the Pels notched
their second touchdown as Bill San
to put together runs of 20, six
and one yards, to score. Again
Santo missed the conversion try
and the score was 12-6 for Klam
ath.
Ashland caught up with 1:30 left
in the half as a pass by quarter
back Gary Buchholz was intercept
ed by Phil Tucker, who sped 43
yards lor the second Ashland TD.
They forged a one point lead, 13-12,
as voris connected with Gray in
the end zone for the conversion.
A KU fumble after the kickoff
was nullified by a pass intercep
tion by Brinson, followed by a suc
cessful, 8-yard toss by Eddio Matt-
miller to Santo as the gun sound
ed. Mattmiller was switched from
the line to the backfield to help in
the passing department.
Early in the third stanza the
pendulum swung in favor of Ash
land as Jack Riley fumbled on
the 32 and the Grizzlies took over.
A one man show by McKinnis
ended 1n an another Ashland TD
and the Grizzlies had a 20 12
spread, after Dennis Johnson ran
for the conversion.
Despite a march that took them
to within 15 yards of the Ashland
goal the Pelicans lost the ball on
downs and the Grizzlies were off
again. Their next touchdown came
seconds later as Voris passed to
Gray who went 64 yards for a
score.
The Pels were to score no more
during the game while Ashland
picked up another counter as Steve
Gray tossed a 36-yard touchdown
pass to end Verne Spcirs, making
the score for Ashland 33, the Pels
went on a move that netted them
three first downs but failed to pro
duce a score, before the final horn
sounded.

Washington Pups
SEATTLE (AP) Oregon's frosh
footballers kicked the mud out of
their cleats Friday afternoon and
racked un two touchdowns to
beat the Husky Pups 16-7 on a
rain-soaked field here. -Washington
scored on a 64-yard
run by Bill Scott who took a punt
return from his own 36 to the
goal line.
But the Ducklings took to the
air to set up the equalizer. Frank
Guisti went .14 yards for the
touchdown. A pass from quarter
back Jim Suter to Jim Sandness
put Oregon ahead. 8-7.
On the last play of the third
quarter Mike Gaetcher took a
handoff and ran 54-yards for the
clincher. Another aerial gave the
Ducklings two more points and
a 16-7 victory.
Oregon Tech basketball coach
Wally Palmbcrg completed his
first week of drills as the Owls
open defense of their Oregon Col
legiate Conference basketball
crowns won in 1956-57 and 1957-58
under his guidance.
This is Palmbcrg's fifth season
at the helm of the Tech cage pro
gram, and if he wins the OCC title
again this year, he will set a new
three-in-a-row precedent.
The immediate outlook for this
year's basketball fortunes is not
good. Palmbcrg has a turnout of
16 boys working, but only a hand
ful of these have experience. Let-
terman Dell Francis is the only
returning eager working under
Palmbcrg's direction this past
week.
JC transfer Paul Layhcr and
freshmen guards Dennis McKee of
Salem and Leon Wilson of Tulsa,
Oklahoma, spearhead the Owl
prospects.
Palmberg will be without the
services of 6-9 Charlie Bogle, all
conference center, who was
dropped from the squad. Bogle
has since dropped out of school.
The Owl basketballers are ex
pected to get a big boost from
the football team at the close of
the OTI grid season. Arnold Met
calf, Allen Jones, Otis Foster,
Charlie Wilson, Ralph Norgaard,
Roy Johnson and the two Dick
brothers. Tom and Don, are all
destined to turn out for basketball
as soon as they shed their football
gear.
Norgaard and Wilson are both
lettermen from last year's confer
ence championship team.
Norm Oliva, a lumor transfer
from Southern Oregon College, is
working out with the Owls but will
not become eligible until the lat
ter part of January. Oliva, wait
ing out the OCC transfer rule, was
all-conference selection as a
freshman at SOC and last season
was one of the league's top re
bounders. The 6-4 eager from Ma
lm will give lech a big lift when
his waiting time is through.
The Owls open their season De
cember 5-6 when they host Hum
boldt State College in a pair of
games. The first Oregon Collegi
ate Conference action for Tech
is January 9-10 here against Port
land State College.

Medford, G.P, Tie
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Unbeaten Jefferson of Portland
smashed Cleveland 31-0 for a
20th consecutive victory Friday
night but Medford was tied 0-0 by
Grants Pass in Oregon high
school football.
The Jefferson Democrats
ranked No. 1 all season in the
Associated Press poll and Med
ford was No. 2.
Mel Renfro, who lead the at
tack, romped 74 yards for one
touchdown, then snagged a lateral
pass and went 36 yards for another.
Cleveland's Norm Patera, who
carried the brunt of the attack for
his team, failed to score.
The 31 Jefferson points boosted
the team's season total to 417,
exactly 100 more than the old rec
ord for a team during one sea
son. The former record of 317 was
set by Washington in 1920.
Medford's major edge in yard
age gained gave them the right
to enter the stale tourney for dis
trict six. Medford outgained
Grants Pass 237 yards to 85
yards.
Grants Pass twice slopped Med
ford within the 10 yard line.
while Medford held Grants Pass
once within the one-foot line.
No. 3 North Salem was dumped
13-0 by Prineville, but North
Salem qualified two weeks ago
for the quarter-finals as the dis
trict eight representative.
Marshfield, fourth, belted North
Bend, eighth. 28-14, which gave
Ihem the Midwestern League ti
tle. Astoria, tied with Marshfield in
fourth, tied Gresham 12-12. This
gave Astoria the Metro League
Championship and a tourney
berth.
Gresham's Chuck Peterson led
a last-minute touchdown march
which tied the score, but his ex
tra point kick missed by inches.
No. 7 Roseburg, which ranks
behind Grants Pass, defeated Cot
tage Grove 26-12.
Ninth place Roosevelt clipped
