E3TIR C. Fifth Near Riverside Phone 2-6719 Conference Tilts Friday, Saturday Mtdford high's basketball team gots to Central Point and Ash land plays host to Klamath Falls in top Southern Oregon confer ence-district 4 basketball games Saturday in this part of the val ley. Eagle Point high plays at Illinois Valley (Kerby) in the third game tomorrow. Coach Frank Roolandt was a bit pessimistic over his charges winning possibilities at Central Point tomorrow when the varsities take the floor at 8:15 p.m. He feared the ability of the Pointers in making long shots from the floor count. PELS, ASHLAND PLAY SATURDAY NIGHT Over at Ashland, the Pelicans and Grizslies are expected to be about evenly matched for their clash also scheduled for 8:15 p.m. Saturday on the junior high floor. Klamath probably has an edge as does Medford over Central Point. Eagle Point with its undefeated record In J-D-J and conference-district play on the books is highly favored to down Illinois Valley the same evening. Games in the conference-district 4 race tonight will send Cen tral Point to Grants Pass, Klamath to Eagle Point and Ashland goes to Illinois Valley. EAGLES-KLAMATH GAME RATED CLOSE ONE The Cavemen and Grisslies are expected to have little trouble in posting wins this evening but the Klamath-Eagles race may be a bit closer due to tne teams using more eveniy-matcnea. A defeat by Grants Pass at the hand of an opponent either night and a victory for the Black Tornado tomorrow evening against Central Point would put the Cavemen and Medford in a tie. Should Eagle Point win both nights they could take the lead alone in the district. Preliminaries at 8:30 or 8:45 will precede the varsity games both nights. Raiders To Play Chico Tonight And Saturday Ashland, Jan. 27 Chlco State's high scoring basketball squad and league-leading South ern Oregon college will square off tonight and Saturday in Ash land for a bid for the Far West ern conference title.

Raiders Win Four Having previously dropped San Francisco State twice, the Raiders have posted four wins in the loop. The Cats, in the meantime, lashed out against a valiant San Francisco five to up their loop record to five wins and one loss, at the hands of the strong Cal Aggies outfit. Chico showed a great effort In their last four contests, thrashed Humboldt and San Francisco and then coming from behind to prush a do-or-die Gator five. They have had a much rougher season to date than the Red Raiders, who are just hitting the tough end of their schedule now. Raiders Hurt in 1949 It was the Ashland squad that kept the Wildcats from a perfect conference record last year, dropped the Maxeymen twice in the early part of the season be fore the great Chico team began to roll and the locals will be out to even the count as well as for the loop lead. Ready for the major circuit clash will be the conference's three leading scorers. Chico's Vere Butler, Lyle Olsen and Ja- ter Cowan, all of whom have scored well over the 200 point marker. Olsen provided a great defensive play against the Ga tors with his backboard play. Backing up the front line are vastly improved and steady Joe Rukavina and Ellis Rolls, who is rounding into form after join ing the squad in mid-season. Hale Leading Cage Scorer Lloyd Hale of EaEle Point and Jack Morris of Medford are pac ing the individual scoring for the Southern Oregon conference district 4 race according to unof ficial figures announced today in Ashland.
