grants Pass Hopes To lurk Tornado
Title Aims h lnJeek-End Hoop Series
Coach Ray Davis and his
J. A --0
ball squad have ambitions of
throwing the Southern Oregon
conference Big Four race "into a
turmoil." That is a press report
from the climate, city.
There's not much turmoil that
can be caused this late in the
campaign but it could be enough
to wreck the state tourney hopes
of Medford high hoopmen, who
are now leading the circuit. .
Medford and Grants Pass clash
Friday at Medford and Saturday
at Grants Pass in tussles , that
wind-up the regular league slate
for both quints. Varsity frays
each day are set for 8:15 p.m.
following 6:45 ptm. prelims.
Pels, Grizzlies Vie ,
In another two-game series
this week-end Ashland plays at
Klamath Falls. The Klamathites,
second in the loop, are almost
certain to take both tangles from
the cellar -dwelling Grizzlies.
That means that Medford can't
count on any help from Ashland
and must win both frays from
Grants Pass to gain the pennant.
A Tornado sweep over the Cave
men would give Medford the
crown by a one-game - margin
over Klamath.
If the Klamath-Ashland tilts go
true to forecasts and Medford
splits with Grants Pass, Medford

How to judge whiskey value :
. Have Viox. of Calvert
put in one glass and the
same amount of any
other whiskey in another
without knowing
which ia which.
: BE YOUR OWN WHISKEY EXPERT 1
The big difference in whiskey values is the
difference in taste. That's why it will pay you
to make an easy 60-second taste test between
Calvert Reserve and your present brand.
-We're sure you will prefer Calvert because
its smoother, mellower taste is protected
from bite, burn or sting'by "vacuum distil
ling' at low temperature. -.'
But don't take our word for it.. Compare
and make your own choice. Fair enouh?

and Klamath will be knotted for
the diadem. A play-off game
would be required. If on the
other hand Grants Pass whacks
Medford twice, Klamath would
win the title by a one-mix edge
over Medford. .
Cavemen Remember
Grants Pass early in the sea
son turned the trick that now
gives Medford its lead. The Cave
men topped Klamath. Now

Cavemen recall an incident last
year that spoiled their ' title
hopes. That was a defeat by Med
ford that enabled Klamath Falls
to take the honors by a single

sirous of victory.

Grants Pass. The Cavemen put
un a strong challenge in the last
struggles in January. Medford
won tne iirst xo o aner a
torrid see-saw battle. The second
contest was hard fought until
Medford pulled away in the final
moments to win 46 to 33.
Starters Listed
Possible Grants Pass starters
Friday are Norm Hedgpeth and
John Harbour, forwards; Mel
Norrickr center; and Dick James
and . Bruce Robertson, guards.
Larry Schweinfurt may see con
siderable action.
Because Grants Pass will have
a height advantage Coach Frank
Roelandt undoubtedly will de
termine his starters by the Cave
men's opening five. Ed Bingham
at forward, Derald Wooton at
center, Dennis Conner at guard,
and Don Spinas at either for
ward or guard appear definite
starters.
The fifth man will be picked
from tall Jack Boardman, Dick
Atterbury and Roland Thomp

be at a forward and Spinas at .a
guard. Otherwise, Spinas will be
a forward spot. '

ACE Sport' Controlling Program
Apparently Doomed to Failure
New York U.R) The Ameri
can Council on Education's pro
gram for controlling intercolle
giate athletics appeared doomed
to failure Thursday as two east
ern college accrediting agencies
announced they could not en
force it.
Officials of the Middle Atlan
tic states and New England, states
college and secondary school as
sociations said they could not
enforce the ACE code because
it is "impractical" and beyond
their function.
A committee of college presi
dents appointed by the ACE
drew up a 10-point program for
cracking down on intercollegiate
athletics last January 8 and had
hoped the six powerful accredit
ing agencies throughout the na
tion would enforce it by refusing
to accredit schools which vio

The ACE code included ban

said Thursday.
Reeves Peters, the committee
member, told Fen ton in' a tele
phone conversation from Kansas
City that five teams are in line
for the members-at-large bid.
They are Drake, Oklahoma City,
St. Mary's, San Francisco, and
Santa Clara.
