VANCOUVER PUCKMEN BEAT PORTLAND, 10 VANCOUVER, FVb. 2S.

They are now one point ahead of the Bucks am! three points behind the league leading Seattle Scahawlu, j SEC0KDARYQU1NTS IN CRUCIAL GUSH FANDOM RANDOM By Dick Applegate That tiny black speck smack In the middle of page 23 of this Issue Is not a fly speck, but the Medford chances of getting past Ashland In the southern Oregon league basket ball race. Ashland, a little bit like the University of Washington In the north, is now so far ahead that prac tically nothing can stop her. For the locals to edge Into a tie, with three losses alreaoy. they will have to beat Ashland In the next encounter of the two schools, and then take Oranta Pass tw; straight. On Thursday Grant Paaa tangles with Ashland, at Ashland. In rase of a Grants Pass win, the Timers' rhances wonld go up a little not much, but some. Ash land, with only one loss. Is pretty secure right now. Already several Medford fans have Indicated that they will be In Ash land Thursday. The prospect Is a peculiar one. Ashland has defeated Medford handily In three gamea. Medford has dumped Oranta Pass twice, and still the Climate City lads rose In their wrath a couple of weeks ago and handed the Llthlana a set back. The Medford fans will be there In the hope the Cavemen can dupli cate that performance. There seems to be a good deal of hair-splitting going on regarding the comparative merits of Hank Lulsettl's record of 30 points scored In one game when hla team (Stanford), tan sled with Southern Cal. this year. and Eddie Durno'a record against Washington State while playing for Oregon back In 1010. Some there are who wlU say that Eddie's 30 points really can't be counted as 88 points. The following dispatch will Indicate rather clearly that side of the argument: PULLMAN, Wash. (API When Hank Lulsettl, sensational Stanford university basketball forward, scored 80 points In a gome against Southern California this season, he established a new' modern record for the Pacific Coast conference, but not an all time mark. This waa disclosed at Wash ington State college when a check of the files revealed that Eddie Durno of the University of Oregon tallied 35 points In a battle with the Cougara here In 1010. Durno was aided, however, by the old foul rule which permitted one player to shoot all the free throws. In the 1010 game the .Oregon star had 21 chances from the foul line and made IS. At the same time he flipped in 10 field goals. Lulsettl attained his record with 11 field goals and eight gift shots. The best mark In the northern division of the conference since the rules were changed, compel ling each player to ehoot his own free throws, waa ohalked up by Johnny Fuller of the University or Washington three yeara ago. In a game against Idaho he scored 22 points. Comparing two obviously outstand ing ployera auoh aa Durno and Lul settl, la about aa futile aa comparing the great football teams In Medford WE The GUS E FRIDAY EVENING A change of dim at will sometimes work wonders, and the Klamath Falls high school Pelicans, twice victims of the Medford Tigers on their own floor, will Invade ' this city Friday night armed with a vastly Improved team In an effort to revamp the scor ing honors as they now stand. Since the Tigers scooped in the Pelican tall feathers over a month ago, the green Klamath players have improved tre mendously, and are now leading con tenders for honors In their own dis trict The affair la not a league game and will have no effect on conference standings, but is expected to be fast and exciting regardless of that fact. The Tigers, themselves the victims of a slashing onslaught Friday night, are primed for vengeance. The Med ford lineup has again been shaken up, with Lewis back at his old key poet at forward, teamed, with Van Dyke. Lewis roamed the guard post In the Ashland game. Grow, elevated to starting forward last week, Is pushing Hayes hard at center, and may get the nod for that position Friday. Wilson, who reported several weeks late, Is pushing both men for the leaping post, Coach Bill Bowerman said today. Ettlngcr, Im proving In both his shooting and floor work, will take the starting post at guard along with Baker. This com bination proved exceptionally efficient against Grants Pass Saturday night, when the locals won, 38-18. On Saturday night the Tigers re turn the Grants Pass call and are to be entertained on the Ceveman floor. Clinging desperately to an almost hopeless grip on the league title, the Tigers will be finally eliminated from the running In the case of a Grants Pass win. The Medford squad Is In good physical condition, with colds that have haunted the squad all year now almost entirely absent. Rule Against Workers. SPOKANE, Feb. 35. (p) Judge R. M. Webster ruled In superior court here against the claim of 05 work men for $13,000 from the Pend O'Relite Mines and Metals company for back wages which were allegedly below the NBA code provisions. Judge Webster ruled the company signed the code under coercion. In '37 and '38, with any that have come along since, or are apt to come In the future. Regardless of how good each one's argument may be, no one wilt ever change his opinion on the matter. In Home quarters, for Instance, It la practically sacrilege to suggest that there will ever be anoth er high school football team half as good, even If the new team could best Notre Dame and Stanford on the same day. The ones who plsyed on those team Morgan, Hughes, Harrell and the like, will be the first to pooh pooh such an Idea. And while we haven't talked to Durno regarding Lulsettl's prowess, we have a hunch he la all for the tSanford ace.' But until Eddie's actual record of 35 points Is equalled or surpassed, that record Is his, and no amount of ver bal bickering can alter the fact one lot. INDIVIDUALLY nr QUALITY.

(p) What looked like a walk-eway for the Washington Huskies a week sgo in northern division coast conference basketball competition assumed the aspects today of a possible race down the stretch.' A thrilling 36-35 overtime victory over the Huskies last night by the Washington State Cougars buoyed the hope of Oregon State supporters that the Beavers, with a wagon load of luck, might be able to overtake Wash ington, It was the Huskies' second loss In 13 gamea, having dropped their first game of the season to Idaho Friday.
