Medford Retains

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Medford held on to its top posi
tion in the weekly Associated
Press poll on high school basket
ball as two new teams climbed
into the top 10 in the state.
Medford was idle -the past
week, and perhaps it was just
as well in view of what hap
pened to other leaders. Half of
the teams in the top 10 suf

Pendleton tumbled out of the
top 10 and South Salem al
most did.
One of the newcomers was
Franklin of Portland, which
came from nowhere to grab
sixth place. Franklin is a sur
prise leader in the Portland
league.
The other new club is Bea
verton, the leader in the Tu
alatin- Vamhill Valley league.
The Beavers tied South Salem
for 10th place.
The poll with the season rec
ord listed for each team:
1. Medford .43-1 117
2. Milwaukee .13-2 97
3. Eugene . 12-2 90
4. North Rend .16-1 87

West Virginia Teams Make
Defense Easy—More Points
BECKLEY, W. Va. (AP) The
approach to basketball defense in
the West Virginia Intercollegiate
conference is simplicity Itself—
score more points than the other
team.
Last week. West Virginia Tech
defeated Bethany by the star
dusting score of 137-80. That hot
night boosted Tech's scoring av
erage for 17 games to 115.6
points, a right potent defense
and not bad as an offense.
When Bethany took the floor,
it was the defensive leader of
the 14-school conference. When
the smoke had cleared the Bl- ‘
sons languished in third place.
In first place defensively at
week's end. according to Sports
Editor George Springer of the
Beckley Post-Herald, conference
statistician, was Shepherd col
lege. Shepherd has held oppo
nentii to an average or au.a point*
a game.

Strange Case of
THI irdOlHARDY SKIlt
7 _
I HERE was once a young fellow who
decided skiing was as easy as driving
a car on snow-covered roads.
So one day he stepped into his new skis
atop a slope, and pushed off. His friends
were aghast! Such confidence!
He knew little or nothing about the rules
of skiing—how to turn—how to stop
how to use his poles and edges.
What happened? That’s right.
He ran smack into a large tree.
Everybody on the slope said he
should learn the rules of skiing
before taking such chances.
But nobody mentioned that neither he—
nor most of them—knew or practiced
the rules of winter driving.
Doesn’t that seem awfully foolish—and
childish—when you think of the terrible;
death toll from winter traffic accidents?
Just in case, here are the six rules*
of winter driving.
*THE SIX RULES OF WINTER DRIVING
1. Accept your responsibility.
2. Get the “feel" of the road.
3. Keep the windshield clear.
4. Use tire chains and good tires.
5. Pump your brakes.
6. Follow at a safe distance.
