The Ashland High football team advanced to the next round of the state playoffs with a hard-fought, well-played victory over Silverton last night. Both teams exhibited skillful play and admirable sportsmanship in a contest that the Grizzlies hung on to win, 43 to 35. They face Sherwood High in next week's quarterfinal game at Sherwood. It figures to be a tough challenge as the Bowmen are undefeated in averaging a 35-point margin of victory over their opponents.
