Buckets by Captain Bob Watson and Darrel Riggs just before the gun gave it back to Medford, however, 11-9. r Coach Al Simpson's crew again took the initiative in the second frame and galloped the lead to 18-9 before Oregon City, now making numerous Medford fouls pay off, finally crept up once more. I Dick Fawcett hit with 5:30 gone to push Medford 21-14 out front and mom ents later Big Riggs made it 24-17 for the halt , : But all the while Medford was being tooted jdown for fouliiTg especially Riggs. And Riggs was outbattling OC's 6-foot 5-inch Len RLnearson for! rebounds that first half, netting the Tornado an ad vantage. It was the lull before the storm for Medford, for exactly 1:40 into the third frame 'Riggs: went , out! with his allotment of infrac tions. Immediately the so-far out gunned Pioneers went to work. Little Art Jones was the lad who stepped forth mostly for OC, and with a staccato of hits at Medford's basket, almost person ally pulled the Pioneers up even and across the hump at the third quarter. Jones hit four straight field goals after Rinearson had potted a pair, and then it was Bob Misiey ana lunearson again on , fast break and tip-in who gave the Pioneers the 34-32 lead, Rine arson was now gathering in most of j the important rebounds and starting the Pioneer scoring plays. With. Medford again off key af ter Howie VVfhillock pivoted one in from the key to regain a- 37-35 lead, Keith jBakkum, Ri parson and Misley scored to push OC in front again, 39-37, with 3:15 left Bakkum holed out a follow-up for 41-38 with 1:20 left, and then after Jones, Misley and Bakkum fouled out in the roughs! battle. Jerry Ross brought Medford up to 39-41 and then 40-41 with two - free tosses. For another minute it was up-and-down, up-and-down, - but no scoring - as the seconds ticked to thej finish line. Medford had two desperation shots near the . end, but missed both by inches. Losing Riggs hurt plenty, and Tornado in Action 1 V ... -U A ii ' i : Suarez Wins Bout oh Foul Gathering rebounds, a favorite pastime In the state tourney at Wil lamette this week, is just what Medford and Vernonia are attempt ing in this shot. Larry Hayes (6) and Parrel! Riggs (facing Hayes) seem to be doing okeh for Medford while Captain Bob Watson (4) looks on. Vefnonlsna dlstlnsruishable are Fred Lanon (3), Duke Byers (6) and Ralph Stnrdevant (outstretched hand at right)? it was just what the doc .ordered for OC. - ' ' In field goals scored, Medford had 15 to OC's 14, but the Pioneers countered with 13 free tosses made good to Medford's 10. "Rhino" Rinearson, a goose-egg his in the scoring column against Hijlsboro Thursday night, roared back with 14 last night to lead scoring. Jones had 11, just as many as were gathered by Dick Fawcett of the now-deflated Tornado. The victory gained Oregon City her first finals date In history in the tourney. The Pioneers were here nine straight years, befon this, but always faded out. This time her highly rated Red and Whites can get no worse than sec ond place, something the school has never had before. It was a bitter piU for Simpson, for he was shooting for a third straight state championship after grabbing one with Ashland last year in basketball and another i ! - 1 Rough Tactics Cost Hudson Portland Go PORTLAND j March 16 Johnny Suarez, 140-pound Oregon welterweight king, won on a foul in thej eighth round from Cecil Hudson, 145, San Jose negro, in the main boxing event at the Pub lic auditorium' here tonight.

DeWitt hit IS goals from the field and It free throws for his 34 markers, bet terlng by! one point the record of 33 points set by Cart Lackey of Springfield last year. f &-?-:': ': -: : ' -;"''i.s ; ' DeWltt's record wasn't made without a determined effort ' to keep him from scoring, either. So anxious were the Honkers to step the Keedsport ace, they fool ed him repeatedly. DeWitt had II free shots aU told, making II, including the last 'four in a row when the pressure was decidedly "on". DeWltt's feat In one game made the efforts of the A" play ers - look rather puny for two days effort. Only Jerry Krafve, Washington center who haS'tl poln, Is! anywhere near him in the point race.
