Klamath Fall
Grants Pass.
Ashland
Medford
Klamath Falls pulled even
with Medford Friday night in
the Southern Oregon conference
Big Four basketball race and
the Pelicans' giant Ralph Carroll
was largely responsible.
Klamath downed the Black
Tornado here 54 to 42 for its
seventh win against two losses
.and for a first-place deadlock
Medford has the same record in
league contention.
Medford fought hard and
hustled all the way but Carroll's
six-feet seven inches and the
height of his teammates, Ray
Bell, six-five, and Jack Horton,
six-four, proved a bit too much
altitude for the scrapping Tor
nado. -.
Many Rebounds
: Carroll was responsible for
the bulk of Pelican scoring with
32 points on 14 field goals and
four free shots. Twenty-one of
his counters came in the first
half. The skyscraping center
pulled down 17 rebounds in ad
dition to plunking in frequent
tip-in shots. -
, Klamath made the most of its
height keeping the pace gener
ally slow and deliberate to set
up its taller men, principally
Carroll, for shots close in. The
pace picked up a bit in the sec
ond quarter but cooled down
again in the next peroid.
: The Pelicans were on top all
the way. Medford kept close on
the Pels' heels in the early mo
ments. Klamath sprinted from
an 11 to 10 edge midway in the
first quarter to a 20 to 11 spread.
The Tornado cut the margin to
20 to 17 by the end of the stanza.
Gain Good Laad
! In the second quarter Klamath
worked to a 32 to 21 margin and
led by 34 to 17 at halftime. The
Pels held never less than a seven
point advantage in the third
quarter and the spread was gen
erally nine or 10 points. Third
period intermission standing was
45 to 36.
Medford threatend the Peli
cans in the fourth period with
field goals by Derald Wooton
and Ed Bingham, while Cal Gil
more of Klamath was getting
a free heave, slicing the gap to
48 to 40.
Carroll's tip-in made it 48 to
40. Then Dick Atterbury scored
"GGUTIGPGLT
"Before I hear a bid I want you
to see THIS name REAL good"
Farm auctioneers know what they're doinf when
they point to the name "Ford." They have found
out the name "Ford" on a tractor works like magic
at any farm sale.
' And this fact points up a big advantage you get in

Why? Well, for one thing ft it the popular two-plow
size; that means a bigger number of prospects. Then,
too', it's a year-'round tractor; a tractor that doss
more jobs; a tractor that it easy to operate.
-.- Remember, too, you pay less for a Ford Tractor

the Tornado's last field shot for
a 48 to 42 standing. Klamath
went into a stall at that point
The Medfordites put up a
great battle and might have
made a tighter contest had they
had better luck at hitting the
hoop. They dropped in only 34
per cent of their attempts from
the field.
Conner's Goals Thrill
Dennis Conner headed Med
ford in point-making with 15
of which 12 were in the first
half. He thrilled spectators with
long heaves for tallies at the
buzzer blasts ending the first
quarter and the half. Don Spi
nas almost duplicated the feat
at the end of the third period.
His cast bounded of the hoop.
Klamath Falls dominated the
backboards in the first half with
20 rebounds to nine by Medford.

Eagle Point Spills Crater
40-36 in Overtime Fracas
Eagle Point's hoop quintet.
employing specially devised tac
tics, spilled Crater high 40 to 36
here Friday night in an overtime
JDJ league battle at Central
Point.
The Eagles shoved Crater out
of possible JDJ co-championship.
Myrtle Creek defeated Illinois
Valley 71 to 45 at Cave Junction
last night to cop the pennant.
Crater supporters felt the
Comets, who missed many shots,
were far off their game. But
Coach Jerry Mosby felt his Eagle
crew had a well-earned triumph
with a strategy aimed at putting
the pressure on the Comets and
keeping them off balance.
Long Stall
The initial bit of strategy em
ployed by the Eagles and aimed
at keeping Crater from getting
a big jump was to stall the first
seven minutes of the game. The
teams went scoreless in that time.
Crater, however, managed to
6 to 1 lead by the end of the
Svaday. rraary U. IMS
edly out-rebounded Klamath II
to 13 in the second half. With
either Wooton and Jack Board
man or Wooton and Bingham
teaming up against him, the
Pels' Carroll was held down
better In the second hall
Griffin Creek and Oak Grove
teamed to defeat Lone Pine and
Howard 36 to 20 in a West-East
grade school preliminary. Grif
fin Creek tallied 14 and Oak
Grove 22 for the West and Lone
Pine and Howard each 10 for
the East.
