Viking To Give
Medford Severe
Basketball Test
Russell J. Acheson's Medford
high school basketball lads,
who thus far have proved
themselves darned good on oc
casions and. not so potent at
other times, will receive the
well-known acid test the com
ing week-end.
Salem high's state champion
ship Vikings will be here for
a two-game series Friday and
Saturday nights, and following
, those tiffs everybody, includ
ing Coach Acheson and his
Tiger hoopmen, should have
a pretty fair idea of how the
red and black stacks up against
the top prep quintets of the
northern section of the state.
As before noted th locals,
at limes this season, have
displayod more than b work
ing knowledge of what it's
all about. In the second
University high game, in the
Tillamook tilt and In the
- second Klamath fracas the
Tigers showed genuine
. flashes of ability. Their pass
ing was sharp and sure, their
shooting was, if not sensa
tional, sufficiently accurate,
and tholr new driving at
tack operated on all cylin
ders. Against Weed, against Unihi
In the first game and against
Klamath in the initial strug
gle, however, the performance
of the Bengals left much to be
desired. Their workout against
Chemawa might also be In
cluded, but we are of the opin
ion that the Tigers were just
out of their class that eve and
that the Indians would have
copped regardless of how sweet
ly our boys were maneuvering
The Mcdfords, In short, have
to date been what the boys
term a "hot and cold" outfit,
as many clubs are at the first
of the season and, especially,
when a new system is being
assimlliated. This is a perfectly
natural development and
shouldn't bo construed as in
dicating the squad will never
strike its stride.
As for this Harold Hauk five
from Salem, early-season rec
ords are clear in relegating the
Vikings to the pinnacle among
Willamette valley quints, along
side the powerful Dallas team.
Salem has dropped only one
game In 11 starts, and that to
Dallas, but the Haukmen als.
hold a decision over their con
querors. The Capital City cagers won't
be strangers when they take

Cougars
the floor here Friday night
Local fans and players, alike,
know the Vikings of old. For
those who have short mem
ories, it was Salem which nip
ped off Medford's state title
bid last season, in the finals
of the tournament, and before
this sad occurrence Mr. Hauk's
boys played the Tigers here
twice, each club earning I
victory.
Leading light of the Salem
quintet is one Virgil 'Scotty)
Sebern, a forward. This fel
low Sebern is quite a boy, as
those who witnessed the stale
tournament last season can
well testify. Sebern made
all-state first team forward,
and he deserved It. In our
opinion he was the second
best player in the state, top
ped only by Waymon Col
son of Bake r. With the
latter no longer around, it
follows that young Sebern
might just possibly be the
BEST player in the slate this
campaign.
Mr. Hauk will have two
other fellows who played in
that tournament. They are Red
Kernes, a forward, and Don
Barnick, a guard. These boys
weren't regulars of the state
champs, but they saw enough
action to become pretty dog
gone proficient. They have
been going great guns thus far,
Then, the Vikings will have
Ed Salstrom, forward; Bob Mc
Kee, a hot-shot forward; Rus
sell Satcr and Darrell Mason.
a pair of good centers, and Jim
nenery, a fine guard, to team
with Barnick. These gents seem
to be replacing the graduated
Page, Gosser, et al. in fine
style.
It should be a nifty two-tilt
series, the best of the year if
we are not mistaken. And the
hope is here expressed that the
Tigers have overcome their
"hot and cold", tendencies and
decided to remain at least
warmiJi.

COAST LEAGUE TALKS
FORMATION CLASS C
San Diego, Calif., Jan. 17.
OP) Sponsorship of a class C
baseball league by the Pacific
Coast league remained in the
air today, but the proposal will
be settled definitely next Tues
day at a meeting in Bakersficld.
Winding up a league meeting,
directors of the coast circuit
voted to convene once more to
wrangle over the establishment
of the "baby" loop. ,
Proponents of the idea, as
sured of two teams and angling
for two or four more, urged im
mediate creation of the league
for a 1940 schedule, while con
servative directors argued to
wait one year and "have every
thing in readiness" from the
outset.
Santa Barbara and San Ber
nadino are certain candidates
for franchises, while San Jose,
tsaKerslield, Riverside and Fres
no have yet to give assurance
that they were entries in the
league.
One other Idea apparently
caught the interest of the own
ers; that of the formation of
a Pacific Coast professional
football league, with baseball
organizations backing the grid
sport.
