Burgher Combs Tiger Timber for Cage Talent Replace Graduates TWO FORWARDS AND GUARD ARE PRINCIPAL NEED Absence of White and Delt rick, Tall Athletes, and Little Harrington" Clouds Hopes of Basketball Title By Artbnr Schoenl. Paced with tbe task of unearthing two forwards and a guard. Ooacn Darwin Burgher held first basketball practice at tbe blgb school this after noon. Graduation robbed blm of the eer vices of bis two six-foot basket shooters, Wilton White and Bob Delt rlck, and fast little George Harring ton, eo Burgher's bopes of sending another team to the state tourna ment are slimmer. His team this winter will be built around his mainstay of last year, Bed Scheel, whose consistent ringing of IB points a gsme at tbe Salem meet earned blm an all-state guard selec tion. Besides Scheel, Burgher's only vete rans back are Llndley, bulky, aggres sive center, and Tom White, forward. Hammock and Knlps have seen ser vice, as has GUlnsky, but none of the trio Is In the class with White and Deltrlck. Botb are excellent shots, tail and rangy. 1,1st Is Scanned. Most of Medford's hopes of repeat ing tbe 1031-82 team's record lie In uncovering strong floor men from the "unknown" list, men who showed up well In the lnterclass games last week. Burgher will probably fill the vacant posts with some of the following: Russell Brown, Wayne Harris, Max "Glltnsky, BUI Luman, Harold Drove, Stan Vtunnnan, Jerry Trill, Bob Elson, Hoke ' Curtis, Don Stuart, Alva Mer rltt. Bob Sherwood and Severson. Medford will sweep Into action this week-end If negotiations wltb Mt. Shasta for a game ben Friday or Sat urday are completed.

The undefeated or championship teams enjoyed good business, although the reduction of tisltet prices scaled down the year's profits. Purdue show ed an Increase of 40 per cent In at tendance.. The "big three" on the Paelfio coast all showed declines at the "gate," but they were better than the aver age. Southern California played be fore an estimated 470,000 In nine games is against 667.000 In 10 games last year.

Pass Brings Score. On tbe first play a gaping hole was opened In the Notre Dame line and the Ma - pound quarterback dodged through to tbe 81-yard line. It was from this point that Homer Griffith, on fourth down, rifled a pretty pass to Bob McNelsh. Unop posed, he leaped high Into the air to snatch the ball and take the two steps necessary to cross tbe goal. It waa ons of the numerous quick kicks which kept Notre Dame on the defensive most of the afternoon that made the second touchdown possible. Charles Jsskwhlch fumbled the ball as It bounded toward his goal and Bob Ersklne recovered on the 36-yard line. It la socially correct to use Christ mas Seats. Buy lots ot them. OORVALTJS, Ore..

Bernte Hughes, another Medford man. was selected as all-coast center on the United Press eleven. L. H. Gregory, Oregonlan sports editor, de clared Hughes was the best center on the coast, but was hammered bv his team's showing against Southern California.
