Tornado most To
Cagers -Here" This Evening
s
From the Ashland Tidings:
"If AHS Coach Al Simpson is
cooking up any special strategy
for (tonight's) Medf ord-Ashland
o mix, he's keeping it pretty well
to himself and his boys as he
has been drilling his charges
behind locked doors in prepara
tion for the Grizzlies entry into
' battle against the No. 1 rated
team in the state.".
That's a pretty good indication
that the Grizzlies have something
brewing for the Southern Ore
gon Conference basketball series
tonight at Medford and Satur
day night at Ashland. And, Frank
Roelandt, coach of the potent
Medford Black Tornado, has
come back with the report that
"we hope to be ready for any-
0 thing that happens."
: The Tidings in its Thursday
issue goes on to say that Simp
son, while admitting that the
Tornado is more than a zephyr
this year, isn't conceding any
thing despite the' fact that the
oGrizzlies go to the post minus
the services of regular Center
Jim Sutherlin, their big man on
the backboards.
Freshman Brought Up
Sutherlin suffered a locked
knee last week end and Ash-
o iana repons nun aeiinixeiy on
the shelf for the Medford series.
The knee is slowly responding to
0 lyeatment. .

son to move a freshman up to
the varsity. He is Jack Tobias
son, 6-2 center. Tobiasson is re
ported plenty fast and not a bad
shot but lacking in experience.
Once he gets a bit of varsity
action, he could be a big help to
the Lithian club.
Another quote from the Tid
ings is:
, "About the only, thing favor
ing the Grizzlies is the fact that
they're distinct underdogs in the
week end's affairs, while the
Tornado is definitely in the class
of 'uneasy lies the head that
wears a crown'."
Medford may be in that class
but it still will have to earn the
crown to wear it. Grants Pass
is defending champion. There's
still 10 league frays ahead that
must be hurdled in the title
quest.
Roelandt has reported that
Frank Rector, Larry Copple and
Bud Kastner, as usual, are the
probable starters for Medford
along with Kalapus and Peter
son. Phil Sword likely will oc
cupy Sutherlin's spot and other
starters may be Stu Baker, Gene
Parent, Jerry Mickle and Harry
Johnson.

Boxing Chairman
Asks Cooperation
New York (U.R) Tough Jul
ius Helfand, who can "lick my
weight in wildcats," wants co
operation in cleaning up the
fight game if it's .as bad as de
scribed in the press lest he be
forced to destroy" it.
"I do not want to destroy it,'
the new chairman of the New
York State Athletic Commission
said Thursday night at the an
nual dinner of the Boxing Writ
ers Association. "If I destroy
boxing I will not have accomp
lished anything."
Attorney Balks
Helfand, though an out-spoken
Democrat, had the avowed back
ing of Republican Jacob K. Ja
vits, new state attorney-general.
Javits told the 521 diners in the
Hotel New Yorker's grand ball'
room, "as attorney-general I am
Helfand's .attorney, and I pledge
you a really effective, fighting
team.
Helfand warned that the clean
up of boxing should start right
in the boxing clubs among pro
moters and matchmakers, "if
there is a job to do."
He declared, "They should re
fuse to do business with un
savory characters, if .they exist'
That was the first cooperation
he wanted from persons in the
fight game.

In Accuracy
Los Angeles Idaho may be
the lowest scoring team in the
Northern Division but it's lead
ing the pack in accuracy both
from the floor and the free throw
line, it was disclosed by statistics
from the Pacific Coast Confer
ence commissioner's office.
Figures for games through the
week end of January 8 showed
the Vandals hitting 46.3 per cent
on their field goal tries for a
substantial margin over : their
nearest rival, and 69.1 per cent
on free throw attempts. In total
scoring, however, it's another
matter, with Oregon State and
Washington sharing the lead at
an average of 63 points per game.
Dean Parsons, Washington cen
ter, is the leading scorer with a
19.5 point game average with
Ron Bennink, Washington State,
in close pursuit at 18 points.
Rounding out the top five are
Jim Loscutoff, Oregon, 17; How
ard Page, Oregon, 16; and Jay
Burner, Idaho, 14.
Wade Halbrook, Oregon State's
7-foot-3 center, averaged only
12.5 points per game during his
first week end of play, but as
sumed the leadership in field
goal marksmanship with 12 goals
in 20 tries for 60 per cent. Bob
Bryan, Washington, also has 60
per cent on 6 goals in 10 at
tempts. Ranked first from the
free throw line is Buhler with
88.9 per cent followed by Jim
Coshow, Washington, 87.5. Most
frequently at the line has been

age from the floor, -31.3.
uunng tne nrst . six games
of the Northern Division under
the new bonus-foul rule, each

San Francisco KU.R) USC

Pacific Coast conference South
ern division, clash tonight as
USF hosts College of Pacific.
The traditionally late-starting
Trojans got off to a fast start in
league play by sweeping their
two-game series with California
last week. The Bruins were
almost as impressive in split
ting with hot-shooting Stanford.
The USC-UCLA meeting, with
a repeat performance Saturday
night brings together the divi
sion's best defensive and offen
sive clubs, statistically speaking.
USC allowed the Bears only 60.5
points per game while UCLA

Maryland Hoopmen Victors
Over North Carolina State
By, JOHN GRIFFIN - .
United Press Sports Writer .
Mighty Norn Carolina State
hadn't played Maryland in a regular-season
game in nine years
and you couldn't blame State to
day if it wanted to wait that
long again. . .
For Maryland marked the oc
casion by upsetting State, 68-64,
Thursday night at College Park,
Md. It was only the second .loss
in 16 games this season for
State, rated the fourth best team
in the nation, and it hrew the
Atlantic Conference race into a
three-way tie
Maryland, rated only 14th na
tionally, now has a 8-2 league
record to 4-1 each for North Car
olina State and North Carolina.
State had shunned Maryland
during the regular season ever
since Everett Case became
State's coach nine years ago be
cause Maryland plays a slow
moving, possession-type game
that required special drilling in
complete new tactics for State.
Capacity Crowd Watches
v A . capacity crowd of 4,500
watched Maryland move tp a 36
32 halftime.
The teams kept swapping the
lead back and forth in the sec
ond half until Bob Kessler and
Bob O'Brien started hitting their
shots consistently in the closing
minutes to keep Maryland in
front. Kessler not only notched
26 points for the Terrapins but
Dead line Sunday Classified Is at
Mndaotheaays fiso orevious day"" T hauled down 14 rebounds, while est Grove tomorrow night,
O'Brien added 19 points, many
of them in the , final minutes.
Dwyer led State with 20.
North Carolina gets a chance
to break that three-way tie for
the - conference lead tonight
when it visits South Carolina in
a league game.
But North Carolina State was
not the only high-ranked team
upset Thursday night. Xavier
of Ohio, -which moved into na
tional recognition this week at
the No. 17 slot, was drubbed by
Marshall College, 82-69.
-, Furman, the nation's. highest
scoring team, showed its fire
power in a 111-95 victory over
Georgia Tech, the team that upset-
Kentucky last week but now
has lapsed back into its old los
ing ways. Holy Cross, last sea
son's National Invitational Tour
nament champion, followed up
its rout of Notre Dame by beat
