Tornado
. A hard-running Medford high
school, basketball team, out-
scored the opposition in every
quarter Friday night to over
power a game and scrappy but
outclassed Eagle Point quintet
67 to 33 on the Medford court,
The potent ; Black Tornado
was not without some rough
edges but it showed hustle, drive
and scoring punch, particularly
in the first and second quarters
and early parts of the second and
fourth when the regulars were
in action. And with the fast gal
lop it took a commanding lead
in the opening moments and was
never seriously challenged by
the Eagles.
Medford tallied in the opening
seconds when Bud Kastner
dunked in two points on a tip-off
play. Then the Tornado, with'
Prank . Rector, Jerry Kalapus,
Larry Copple and Kastner all
having a hand, poured in 13
more points before Harvey Nel
son hit a field goal for the Eagles
first scoring more than halfway
through the period.
25 to 5 at Quarter --.
Adding another 10 counters,
Medford had a 25 to 5 spread at
the end of the first canto. Scor
ing pace slowed down for the
Tornado and improved some for
the Eagles after that but Med
ford had leads of 38 to 15 at half-
time and a bulging 53 to 23
after three quarters. The home
team outscored the Eagles 13 to
10 in the second, quarter, 15 to
8 in the third and 14 to 10 in the
fourth.
Complete teams of Medford
reserves, after substitutions by
ones and twos, played the last
5V minutes of the second stanza
and about the last 6V of the
fourth. Scoring by the Tornado
slowed when the reserves found
tough going against the Eagle
zone defense.
Coaches Jerry Mosby of Eagle
Point and Frank Roelandt of
Medford both use their entire
squads. Twelve Eagles and 13
Medf ordites got into the scram
ble. At times Medford did not get
full advantage of its better
height and the Eagles, tabbed
the strong team among - the
.smaller A schools, of the area,
: were to a measure responsible.
They fought hard for the ball

and battled all the way. ;
But statistics kept by the
Medford bench showed about a
two to one Tornado backboard
advantage. Medford cleared the
ball off the board 28 times on
offense and 23 on defense while
the Eagles grabbed 13 balls off
each board. Failure to cover on
5jme deep , rebounds kept the
Medford total from being high
er. A leg injury that hobbled 6
foot 3-inch Bill Caldwell was a
detriment to Eagle chances
under the boards. The tall
Eagle Pointer saw a good bit of
duty but with his bad knee en
cased in a heavy brace. He got
one point for the Eagles during
the tussle.
Kalapus Top Scorer
Kalapus, putting in seven
field goals and three free throws
for 17 points was the high scorer
of the contest. Frank Rector hit
for 12 and Larry Copple for 11
for Medford. Main point getters
for Eagle Point were Harvey
Nelson and Ken Bitterling with
seven each. '
' The Tornado with 26 field
goals in 66 tries hit a commend
able .394 average. Medford sank
15 free throws in 24 attempts for
.625. Eagle Point made 13 out
of 29 from the free line. Average
from the field was highest when
the regulars were in.
Next foe on the Medford list
is Roseburg here Wednesday
night. The Indians have lost to
North Bend which played Med
ford last night. Roseburg has
only three men back who have
had varsity experience. They are
Nub Beamer, the grid star, How

est count in competition in four
games this season Friday night
but still had a wide victory mar
gin in defeating the Eagle-Point
jayvees 47 to 26.
. The junior Tornado led 22 to 9
at the half and the edge shrank
slightly in the third quarter
which wound up 30 to 19.
A slam-bang and mad rush
finish marked the fray as the
clubs raced helter skelter up
and down the floor. The coun
was 40 to 26 with moments to
go and Medford picked up seven
tallies for its final spread.
Puhl of Medford was the high
scorer of the game with 13.

The Oklahoma city touchdown
club, publicized in past years as
an organization of "millionaires"
that "buys" players for the uni

committee it gives $25,000 to
$30,000 yearly to. Oklahoma for
athletic scholarships and that
the practice is above-board.
Paul Brown, secretary of the
Touchdown Club since its forma
tion in 1948, said he told the
committee that money from the
club's fund "goes to the univer

university under the Big Seven

"We have made a complete

Woods Says S(DffieirErielate
By HAL WOOD
San Francisco (U.R)
Straght from the dope box:
. In football, Eddie Erdelatz of
Navy is the most sought after
coach in the intercollegiate
ranks. Oregon State would offer
the one time St. Mary's star just
about everything except the cam
pus on which the school is built
to get him. He also is the No. 1
man among fans in the sugges
tions for a newcoach for the San
Francisco Forty Niners.

nell Junior College team to the
Little Rose Bowl in 1953, and
was assistant coach under Hamp

T. Williams
Top Slugger
of. League
' Chicago (U.R) Ted Wil
liams failed to win the batting
title and . lost out in the home
run and runs batted - in races
but the v Boston Red Sox star
still was the American league's
No. ,1 slugger this year.
Official, figures revealed that
the 36-year-old Williams accum
ulated 245 bases in 386 official
appearances at the plate for a
.635 slugging percentage. Includ
ed among his 133 hits were 23
doubles, one triple and 29 hom
ers.' ' .
Williams, who "suffered a brok
en shoulder injury on the first
day of spring training and did
not break into the Red Sox line
up until late May, batted .345,
drove in 89 runs and led the
league in bases on balls for the
eighth time in his career with
136. - . ' h- '. .v "
Ted's .345-figure topped Bob
by Avila's .341 mark; but Wil
liams did hot ' qualify for the
batting title because of -failure
to accumulate 400 . official . at
bats. Third, the consistency with
which pitchers walked Williams
deprived him of his fifth bat:
ting title.
Williams' closest competition
came from a surprising source
rookie Bill Skowron of the
New York Yankees. Skowron,
a muscular - right-handed hitter
who played both first base and
outfield, compiled a .577 slug
ging percentage which is almost
sure to earn him a starting role
with the Yankees next season.
Behind the two leaders were
Minnie Minoso of the Chicago
White Sox, who had a .535 per
centage and Mickey Mantle of
the Yankees, who had .525.
Mantle, however, led in strike
outs with 107.

In baseball, no use getting ex
cited over the prospects of ma
jor league baseball on the West
Coast in 1955 or 1956. The high
executives of the majors come
up with a different idea every
time they turn around, and most
of the ' suggestions are so con
fusing as the men themselves.
The latest, one Is that Denver
and Phoenix should be included
in a major league setup.
When and if the majors come
to. the west, chances are it will
San Francisco and Los Angeles.
Then there will be openings for
four cities in the Pacific Coast
League. Good guesses for these
are Vancouver, B.C., Spokane,
