ALONG t rJ-iSiDiunurl alls Ms &&A he It's been an interesting week of football. ... It itarted with a rash of major college upsets last weekend the likes of which have not been matched too often. It ended with the announcement that the Oregon Webfoots would be involved in a "first" in the football world with the televising of the Duck-Washington Huskies game via closed circuit in the Portland area. . And sandwiched in between was the Oregon School Activi ties Assn. ruling which shocked the state prep teams as the Class B champion of 1062, Monroe, lost its title to the Merrill Huskies for use of an ineligible player. The wackiest of football weekends slowed many would be prognosticators with six of the nation's so-called "top ten" falling last Saturday. Look at 'em: .'Texas over the No. 1 team, Oklahoma; SMU over Navy: California tying Duke almost another upset; and here on the coast such games as San Jose dropping Washington State, Washington belting Oregon State, and Lewis & Clark ending Llnfield's winning skein. These are just a few. There Needless to say, the bookies (oops!) made a killing. The sellout of the Oregon-Washington football game In Port land Oct 26 brought about the first class circuit showing via the "boob tube" for the first time in the Northwest. Closed circuit showing of football games is a matter of prac tice in Canada and this "first" by the Ducks will probably lead to others. Muultnomah Stadium seats some 36.000 and the Glass Palace in Portland, where the TV showing will be held, scats 10,000 of which about 8,500 will be available for the telecast. Mathis Refuses Hardware ... . Orchids to Morrill principal John Mathis. It was tliis gentleman who, on behalf of the school and town, turned down the shipping of the Class B slate championship foot ball hardware from Monroe to Merrill last week after the OSAA had revealed the Dragons had used an ineligible player.' His comment upon receiving word of euch action, "We'll always know the final score of the game." The Pragons crushed the Huskies In the state title game last year. The question, however: Why did the OSAA wait until this past week to make a formal announcement that Uie Huskies would be named state champions in lieu of the "Dragons? OSAA Covers For Month .. The fact the Dragons had used an ineligible player Vas known well over a month ago and in a short, terse statement the OSAA announced that "Monroe had been placed on probalton for the 1963-64 school year." Coach Gene Christenscn summed up the feeling of the team and himself as he stated, "Had the game been close a point or even a touchdown difference it might have been' different. But, they (tlie Dragons) beat us." The forfeiture by 'Monroe alto makes a difference In the Dragons' own league where they topped the Oakland Oaken 14-0 in Die Triro-BIco loop. This year tho Dragons are apparently nut of the running for the state playoffs by virtue of a 2-3 overall, record and a league mark as of Friday of 1-2. The Huskies, meanwhile, have rolled to a 5-0 overall mark and a league record of 3-0. Undefeated Teams Dwindling . . . As of Friday, also. Just five A-l schools remained in the undefeated class in Cottage Grove and Roscburg in the Midwestern League; Grant of the Portland League; Parkrose of the Wilco League and Pendleton of the Intcrmoimtain League. All have moved to 5-0 records. In A-l action nine teams were undefeated in five outings topped by the Rogue Valley leader Plioonix. The Pirates are also the top scoring A-2 club In tho state as well as being the No. 1 rated team after having tallied IK! points while allowing just six. Heading the state Individual scoring chase among the A-l and A-2 clubs was Cottage iGrove's Alan Richards with 72 points on 12 touchdowns. Merrill Is among the leaders In the Class II action with 193 points scored In live games iwhile allowing 42. The top srorrr currently Is Ken Smith With 86 points collected on 14 touchdowns and two PATs. In the A-l wars, the list of undefeated teams was to have been reduced by one Friday night as the Cottage Grovo Lions and the Roscburg Indians clashed. Terry Meets Los Angeles Fans . . . Checking the pro ranks: From national hero to area hum in eight slwrt months. This is the story of Oregon State's Terry Baker as, for the first time in this outstanding athlete scholar's life he heard the booing directed his way. This is the pro football fan's practice in the Los Angeles picture. II happened a week ago as Harlan fivare, the Rams' young mentor, continued his practice of shuttling quarlrrharH with every play.

Ashland ii Cratir bya. By BILL GOULD Herald and News Sports Editor MODOC FIELD It was a typical Medford team here Fri day night. An opportunist team, with crisp, hard blocking and sine, bone-crushing tackling. It was this Medford, team here Friday night facing t h e Klamath Falls Pelicans that kept the pressure on the Pels the entire route to post an al most easy 34-0 victory. It was a case of the Black Tor nado taking advantage of every error by the Pelicans in rolling to their secend conference tri umph of the season and the fifth of the season. And once it started, the Pels were seemingly at a loss to stop .it. The iniliol mistake by the KU eleven came short minutes fol lowing the opening kickoff when a fired - up band of Pelicans committed a fatal offside on the Medford 37 thereby keeping the first drive of the evening alive as the Tornado moved on to its opening first down. Following this, it took 14 plays for the Tornado to move the 58-yard distance to the initial score of the night. It w as the running of the Med ford power-house fullback Bill Enyart, a 215-pounder, paving the vfay for the Tornado throughout the contest. This junior mass of muscle was the yardage man for the Tornado on the first and ensu ing drives as he hit for nine key gains. It was only right that it should be Enyart diving over the pile of gridders from two yards out for the first score. Tim Murray, Tornado talent ed halfback who had also odded yardage during the first drive, carried over on the PAT run to give the Tornado an early 7-0 advantage at the 5:59 mark of the first period. Following this TD, the teams battled to a 20-0 score at the intermission with the Tornado McCloud Falls To TuSelake By 14-0 The Tulclake Honkers raised their season record to 3-3 Fri day night by stopping visiting McCloud, 14-0.

TU 4.6122 hoviug tallied 195 yards total of fense in the first two periods to just 39 for the Pels and a first down advantage of 12-3. However, tlie second Medford touchdown didn't come easy and had dug in on the one-yard line to slop a 59-yard drive. It was Terry Christianson rais ing up to stop the Tornado bread and butter man En yart on the one to end this sec ond Medford threat. However, on the first play, the Pels gave the ball back to the Tornado through one of the many hard tackles as Chuck Mills fumbled and Medford's Mike Paterson recovered on the one. On the first play it was Mur ray sent across with the second Medford touchdown and this time the run for the PAT was thrown back by an enraged Pelican team. The Pels generated a pair of short-lived drives in tlie first half of the fray, one of which carried to the Medford 39 the closest the Pels were to get to the Medford end zone in the first half. After the Pels had moved from the Klamath Falls 28 on a 12-yard pass gain from John Parisotto to Mike Kitching, gains by Mills and a 15-yard penalty against the Tornado, the Pels were finally stopped and Kitching faked the fourth down punt and ran just short of the first down. With 1:39 left in the first half and the ball on the Medford 39, Mike Barnes unlimbered h i s aerial game and hit Greg Gan dee for a 29-yard gainer to the Pelican 32. With 1:22 left, Raines again took to the air and rifled a 32 yard touchdown heave to end Frank Toews and it was a 19-0 game. Murray again added the PAT on a run for a 20-0 score. In the third period it was a drive by the Tornado eating up 87 yards in 12 plays after the Pels' first try of the second half had been stopped. It was Enyart, Gandee, Mur ray and Barnes alternating in the drive, with a 42-yard romp on a swing right On the single wing by Barnes carrying the Tornado to the Pel 11. From (here Enyart hit for one and which coach Darrell LaRue at tributed the victory. The Honkers put together their first scoring thrust in the second period as (hey began a M-yard drive climaxed when Brad Slezak went over from three yards out. Johnny Brown added the PAT via a run for a 7-0 Tulelake lead. This was the margin by which the home, club led at the inter mission and it was to be in creased in the third period. In the third chapter the Honk ers' Roy Kreizenback picked off a McCloud aerial on the Mc Cloud 30 and six plays later tlie Honkers had scored. Five plays carried (he home club (o the five and from this point Brown carried over for (he TD. O'Neill added the PAT on a run for a 14-0 Tulelake lead. Tlie Honkers held complete command of the contest piling up 240 yards total offense to' 70 or the visitors. Tlie Honkers also collected 20 first downs to six for McCloud.

In the third period tile Pels also finally capitalized' on a break and threatened. It was a fumble by the Torna do on tlie Medford 44 starting the drive, with Kitching, Petrick carrying to the nine. At this point the Pels fumbled and it was recovered by the Tornado, however, the Medford eleven was guilty of a five-yard infraction giving the ball back ' to the Pels and placing it on tlie Medford four. But, on the next play, t h e Pels lumbled again and this time Murray was there to take for good for the Tornado and end the threat. Another fumble by Medford was picked off by the Pels in the final stanza on the Klamath Falls 49, however, after t w o pass Incompletions Medford's Bill Pic-he grabbed a Boh Wil liams' aerial on the Medford 31. With second stringers in action for the Tornado the ball was moved to the Klamath Falls 46 and on first down reserve quar terback .

It was a wild attempt on the PAT with Piche fading to pass and almost completely surround ed and falling but he got the pass off to Bill Houston for the 34-0 game with 38 seconds left. It was simply a case of too much Medford as the stat chart -indicates, with tlie Tornado pil ing up a total yardage of 335 yards to just 98 for the Pels and a first down advantage of 1B-7.
