Agt ROSEBURG HOSES OUT TIGERS, 29-27. REYNOLDS STARS By Ned Liebmaa The Roseburg Indians, by vir tue of a large halftlme score, de feated Medford high Friday night by a 29 to 27 score.

It was only in the last quarter that they were stopped by the Medford de fense and held to only four coun ters. Lee Reynolds, stocky guard was the big noise of the evening when he tallied eleven points for Medford and took over indi vidual scoring honors for the game. Junior, Al Weir had a "hot" night and with his eight points kept Medford In the ball game during the first quarter. For Roseburg no one player had a high score with Hughes, Cum mings, and Ness leading the pa rade with six points. Erratic passes had lot to do with the Bengal downfall and they did not seem to have their eye when it came to hitting for baskets. Throughout the first half they repeatedly lost the bail to their opponents and lost many scoring opportunities. Ness started things off when he hit a cripple for the Indians. However a minute later Herman hit a foul shot to score for the locals, the only one they could fashion in the first period. Hughes and James after a listless first six minutes connected with two foul shots and then Hughes, Cummtngs, and James made "Impossibles" from around the key hole In rapid succession in the last two minutes of the quar ter to put Roseburg in front by a 1 0-1 margin. Don Fawcett after taking to one handed shots at the basket connected with the third one minute after the second stanza opened. Hughes however tallied from under the basket to even things up. This was followed by a field goal by Wimberly and a charity throw by Hughea before Weir of Medford could score hit ting two in a row. Reynolds then got two for 10-7 score. Rose burg made four free throws in the third quarter along with two baskets. Reynolds got three field goals in the period with Her man hitting one and also foul shot, In the last period, the Indians scored first when Stevens shot a foul but this was followed by keyhole shots by Reynolds and Weir. Wimberly, Ness and Her man then made free throws good. Niedermeyer and Weir then tal lied to put Medford one point behind the visitors, but two foul shots by Ward Cummings put the Indians In front to stay. Five seconds before the end of the game Don Fawcett cast off from the middle of the floor missing the basket by narrowest of mar gins. Roseburg won by hitting thir teen free throws, Medford only making five, tour of them by Herman. The game waa exceed ingly rough with Hughes of Roseburg and Wall, Herman, and Reynolds of Medford all leav ing the game via the foul route.
