Slate Contests
With Roseburg
Medford's Black Tornado boxers
will visit Roseburg Friday night
for a scheduled 36-rounds, starting
7:30 p.m. at the junior high school
auditorium, against Ray Brown's
clever aggregation of punchers.
This is the first year Medford
has ever fielded a boxing team,
and if the visitor's enviable re
cord in other sports is a revealing
sign, Brown's boys, who have won
four and lost one team session
this year, should have their work
cut out for them.
The Roseburg contingent has won
over Grants Pass twice, over
Reedsport once, and spirt even
with Springfield. Medford has split
a pair of fights with Grants Pass,
Brown reported.
In their most recent encounter
against Grants Pass Saturday
night, Brown's boxers won 29-19.
Jim Fosback, 132 pound pride
and joy on the local team turned
in the only TKO of the card. He
had his opponent, Kelly Adrian,
136, reeling on the ropes in 45 se
conds of the first round. The re
feree called a halt at that point.

YMCA League
Second Half
Is Tight Race
It looks like a race to the finish
to determine who wins the second
half toga in YMCA basketball play.
Both Umpqua Plywood and Rose
burg Jaycees, racing neck-in-necx
wiui live wins ana one loss each
in second half play, won their
gamea last night. Plywood did it
to National Guard's five, 49-29.
while the Jayvees, making a poor
second half jhowing after leading
12-5 at the half, won by a bare
20-16 count, over Christian church.
The plywood auint. paced by
high-scorer Stan Walley, who ac
cumulated 20 points, forged ahead
to a 26-14 lead at halflime. Bill
Benson, Plywood center, loafed
along for a 10 point contribution to
his team's total. Guardsman Par
son waa high pointer for the losers
with eight.
Scoring in the Jaycee-Chnstian
church game was fairly evenly dis
tributed, with Bud Parsons, Jay
cee reserve, leading on six
counters.
Next week, the second half
crown will be determined in the
early game, when Jaycees face the
Plywood team starting 7:30. If the
Jayceea win, they meet Plywood
again, to decide the champion for
the entire season, i'lywood won
