Roseburg Stages Desperate
Drive In Final Quarter
But Tornado Holds Lead
The Medford Black Tornado basketeers snapped t h
. Roseburg Indian win streak at six fames last night, 46-43.
Playing away from home, the Indians put ort a desper
ation last quarter drive to narrow the gap to three points
but time ran out before yiey
of the game.
Aa in manv another nasKeioan
contest, the story w told for the
Indians from the free throw line.
The locals connected on only seven
of 21 free throw tries, wnue me
Medfordites were making good on
10 of 18.
ThA lain lea nil COt Off 10 a rOUS
ing start with a nip and tuck first
quarter, ine icaa cnanKeu
times and the quints were tied
three times. That period ended,
12-9 fbr Medford. In the second
period, Roseburg evened it up
aeain at 12-all, but afler about
three minules of that quarter, the
winners pulled ahead, 1513 to slay
n the lead.
nioHfnrH hnill uo a 10-noint mar-
tin late in the half, but a free
throw by Mickey Coen and a
quick oasket by Kee Briggs made
the haltlime score, ii-.
oi.nn Suarkt Third Period
Starling the second half, the
hosts widened the gap to 34-22, the
biggest lead ot the nignt. mil men
tho Indians hecan to caich fire,
Snarked bv jinier Frank Olson
who nnured in eight counters in
the third quarter, the Roseburg
team sliced the lead to four points
at 36-32. The quarter ended with
the same four point margin, .-.
It looked like the Indians might
pull the game out of the fire early
in the final canto as Briggs potted
one to put the score at 38-36. But
two Medford field soals and a free
toss squelched the threat for the
moment. It wai lo much to over
come. In the last three minutes,
Medford went into a stall and Rose
burg tried desperately to retrieve
the ball. Jerry Sconce and Dale
Blnnck succeeded in hawking the
ball for four counters, but it was
too little too late.
Indians Shaw Hustle
The Roseburg squad was cold
and missed a large' percentage of
their field shots, but at times out
hustled the Tornado and looked
smoother than the hosting five. The
rebounds were about evenly di
vided, but the offensive play of
Frank Olson was the high point of
the evening. He did more than his
usual yeoman work under both
boards.
Medford guard 1-oren Soderlund
set the pace for the evening with
16 points. Rosehurg's Olson was
runnerup with 12 followed closely
by Briggs with 10.

Sanity Code
End Voted
At NCAA Meet
DALLAS (JP) The sanity
code set up to control financial aid
to college athletes through a cen
tral agency is dead. It lived only
three years.
The demise came last night as
delegates to (he National Collegi
ate Athletic association convention,
through a coalition of the South
and East, knocked the most contro
versial item in NCAA history out
by a margin of three votes.
Schools To Handle Aid
Instead of the code, the mem
bers of the NCAA.will handle aid
to athletes individually. Leaders of
the taction that wiped out t h e
code said they would award aid on
the basis of need.
The Southeastern. Southern and
Southwest conferences led the fi':ht
to get rid of the 'id,., mustering
130 voles out of a possible ISO
the necessary two-thirds majority.
The ballot was secret.
Conftranct Meats Slated
All over the nation conferences
will be holding meetings shortly to
work out their rules on aid to atn-
letes. Where a school is in a con
ference, the conference will set the
rule. An indepndnt will make its
own.
The NCAA convention has an
other full day to run but further
business appears decidedly on the
routine sine.
Yesterday it not only killed the
sanity code but handled its other
highly controversial matter. It
banned live telecasting ot loninaii
games when Tom Hamilton, al
lelic director ol Pittsburgh who
headed the committee on televi
sion, recommended a year's mora
torium. He pointed to declining
football attendant as the reason.
Recruiting Still Regulated
Thou?h the code was eliminated
the power to regulate recruiting of
athletes was left in the hands of
the NCAA. This rule prohibits an
offer of financial inducement to a
prospective student. It also says
expenses of an athlete visiting the
campus shall not be paid and pro
hibits try-outs.
It was voted It) hold the 1952

in ten games Friday afternoon at
Grants Pass and were humbled by
the hosting freshmen hoopsters.

It was height that spelled Ihe dif
ference. It just about limited the
Roseburg, five to one shot at every
onslaught on the basket. The Cave
men frosh pranced on the floor
with only one of Ihe starters under
six feet tall. Their big center
scaled six-three and both forwards
and a guard were six even.
Against this height, the locals
were handcuffed under the boards.
In addition, regular center J i m
Gilbert was home with the mumps.
High point men for the game
were guard Bill Wood and forward
Gary Sutphin, the former Glide
Wildcat who recently moved to
Grants Pass. They made eleven
counters. Guard Red Guthrie

several reasons for the possibility
that hostilities coulU turn the en

off the card at 8:30 p.m. wilh a

son. The headlincr will match Sol
dal Gorky against Leo Walliek.
Carlson, the popular guy with
the jeans and the Stetson, is going

the Douglas county addicts go for
him in a big way. Knox, however,
is rugged character who gives

idol. Local fans are confident
because of Carlson's "bulldogging

While the cash customers are
counting on Walliek lo piledrive

is only a fond hope. No one has
heen able to survive Gorky's Si-

Elkton in north B league play
The Oaks were trailing miser
ably in the first half and hist
couldn't seem to break past the
efficient Elkton zone. After trailing
18-8 in Ihe first quarter and 29-22
at the half, they started stalling to
bring the Elks after the ball. They
came after it all right, but it
broke up their zone in the process.
It was all Oakland needed and by
the third quarter mark the picture
had reversed. The Oaks were
ahead 38-36.
In the fourth quarter, both teams
went cold as a game of keep-swsy
developed. They divided four
points between them.
Elktor.'s guard Carl Hershberper
carried his team with 18 points
which was high for the night.

Charles Keeps
Title With Win
From Lee Oma
By MURRAY ROSI
NEW YORK UP) "I'll keep
on lighting and I'll keep on winning
and then maybe the people will
give me full recognition as cham
pion." Puzzled and somewhat bitter Ez
zard Charles, heavyweight cham
pion of the world, made the state
ment shortl, after he had stopped
veteran Lee Oma of Buffalo in 1:19
of the loth round of their l.S-round
title bout in Madison Square Gar
den last night.
"Maybe I'll show 'em more the
next time," said the Cincinnati
Negro.
The next lime is going to be
late in February or early March
against Jersey Joe Walcott in De
troit, Miami or St. Louis. All that
is expected to be ironed out today
at a conference at the International
Boxing club. Charles won h i s
crown by whipping Jersey Joe in
Chicago June 22, 1949.
Ahead of Lewis
Right now Charges is running
ahead of Joe Louis' record time
schedule. His defeat of the 34-year
old Oma was his sixth defence of
the crown. That leave Ezzy six
down and 19 to go to tie the old
Brown Bomber.
Five of his title defenses were
won by knockouts or technical
knockouts and hir triumph over
Oma wai almost according to the
script. He methodically wore down
his playboy rival with searing body
punches and Oma ' ra.i out of gas,"
as predicted. It could be that Oma
arm-weary by the 10th, decided he
was going to take nr more punches
than necessary.
Referee Ruby Goldstein halted
the often bullish bout with Oma
still on his feet he was never
knocked down during the evening
but reeling around the ring from
a barrage of punishing letts and
rights to the head. Oma was on
the verge of a knockdown when
Goldstein stepptd in.
Oma Stages Good Show
The Jds were fully justified
although Oma put u- a better ex
hibition than figured. Charles, who
was outweighed 185 to 19J, was a
1 to 6 favorite to win and a 1 to 2
choice to slop his foe.
Yet, despite the victory, Charles
felt disturbed and disillusioned by
the boos and catcalls that came
from many of the 11,504 paying
fans. The booing was provoked by
low blows, punches that cost
Charles the fifth and eighth
rounds.
Of the low blows that cost him
two rounds the fifth and eiehih
and were responsible for much of
the booing, Charles said "Oma
carries his hands low and my
punches kept glancing off. 1 don't
think they hurt him,"
