I nnfl Shot ArtiBtS
It was a group of long-shot
artists that almost bested Rogue
River. The cmeitains seiaom
antrA r.nlH Hill a chance close in
and all the Beaver field goals
were cast from way out. (joio
Hill jumped into the lead when
the encounter was 45 seconds old
and Rogue River didn't catch up
until only two and one-fourth
minutes remained In regular
playing time.
In the end It was the calm,
steady fourth quarter perform
ance that paid off for the Chiefs,
who came back like true champs
while the Beavers were, per
haps, a bit eager.
Gold Hill held margins of 10
to 7 at the quarter and 21 to 17
at the half then spread the gap
to 26 to 18 by holding Rogue
River to one point in the third
period.
, Fourth Quarter
Gold Hill got its only points
in the fourth quarter on foul
tosses by Tlnk Palmer and Jerry
Eskew. Pete Purrler, Charles
Jacobs, Don Poitevint and Gene
Depuy tallied from the field for
RoRue River to narrow the count
to 28 to 26.
On fouls by Bud Morgan and
Jack Smith of the Beavers, Pur-
rier and Depuy canned free
tosses to tie the score. Purrler
pushed through the winning bas
ket after two and one-half min
utes of the overtime.
The Jacksonvllle-Butte Falls
brush was close until Butte Falls
pulled away in the final three
minutes. In the first quarter
Butte Falls emerged 5 to 3. The
Loggers were still on top 15 to
13 at the half although Jackson
ville tied the game up once.
Score Tied Five
During the third frame the
score was knotted five times
with Jacksonville finally getting
a 27 to 24 advantage and then
leading 27 to 26 at the quarter's
end.
The Loggers tied It up In the
fourth stanza on Pinochle Poole's
foul toss but Paul Hardv sank a
gifter for a 28 to 27 Jacksonville
edge. Butte Falls went ahead 29
to 28 on Poole's shot. LeRoy
Clay of the Redskins evened the
game at the free throw line.
MEDF0RDv4a4WrRIBUNE
Loggers permanent lead with a
field goal for 31 to 29.
The Loggers added six more
points in the final three minutes
while Greenamyer hit for Jack
sonville with seconds remaining.
Afternoon games yesterday-
went pretty much as expected
with Talent finding little trouble
In outclassing St. Mary's 43 to
21 in a game that never was in
doubt. The Bulldogs had much
the better attack and smoother
offense.
Talent led 15 to 3 at the first
quarter. 23 to 5 at the half, 34 to
9 at the third quarter and 38 to
13 at the automatic timeout
whistle pause.
Phoenix Has Rally
The second game or tne aner-
noon found Phoenix displaying
second half scoring offense
paced by the sharp-shooting Fred
Furry to easily wallop Prospect
53 to 23. Furry, who had seven
out of 10 foul shots and could
hit from anywhere, tallied 23
points for Phoenix.
Phoenix led 12 to 7 at the
first quarter and 20 to 11 at the
half but built it up to a 29 to
15 third quarter margin ana n
to 18 at the automatic timeout.

of the closeness of the early
game between the two teams.
Special entertainment has

Tornado Favorite
Saturday's game on the Med
ford court with Illinois Valley is
likely to be an easv one for tlw
Black Tornado considering that
the ex-Kerby players have failed
to win a game. However, Coach
Wes Peters of the visitors may
have something up his sleeve to
pull. -
romorrow nights name will
be the final home game for the
BiacK Tornado this 1949-50 sea
son.
