The idea that environment
"makes" a team may have some
basis. But, those who. may ad
here to the theory can put down
Medford's basketball Black Tor
nado as a notable exception.
When Medford wound up its
preconference slate with a 7-1
record, there was specula tidn
that the Tornado's fine showing
was the result of having played
six of its games at home. Then
along came conference games to
prove that Medford is not just
; a home court team. The Black
Tornado's most imposing victor
les have been in rival gymna
siums. And, the latest was on
the floor of the Ashland Griz
zlies. , ' ,
Medford thundered over Ash
land 85 to 38 in the Lithia city
on Saturday night to run up its
f econd highest score and second
widest margin of the season. The
47-point triumph gave Medford
two straight in its week end
Southern Oregon Conference
series with Ashland and kept
the Tornado at the head of the
loop with a spotless record in
four games. Medford won Fri
day 71 to 46. 1 ' -Crucial
Coming
Meanwhile, Klamath Falls re
mained a game behind the Tor
nado. The Pelicans, paced by
Dave D'Olivo's 25 tallies, whip
ped Grants Pass 41 to 29 Sat
urday after a 53 to 41 Friday
decision over the Cavemen.
Weekend results put a crucial
label on the Medford-Klamath
series here Friday and Saturday.
A sweep by Medford would put
the Tornado in the driver's seat
for the second half of the loop
campaign. First half of play ends
with the Pel -series. Klamath
can take over first place by win
ning both games. ," v.v
, The Tornado got off to sput
tering start Saturday night, Ash
land held the Medford fast break
in check to a fair degree and
Tornado reserves were in the
fracas much of the way. But the
Medford score mounted with the
same ease as it did in the 86 to
37 win over Grants Pass the pre-,
vious week.' The loop leaders
worked the ball in well for close
shots and controlled the boards.
Ashland got a four-point jump
in the tangle but the Tornado
Settled to the task and, after
the lead switched three times,
was ahead for keeps. Medford
tan away to a 22 to 10 margin
at the end of the first quarter.
It gained one 24-point 40-18
spread in the second period and
led by 19 points, 42 to 23, at the
half. The lead was stretched to
33 points in the third quarter
which ended 68 to 35. ....
Reserves Play Full Quarter
Medford reserves played the
entire final quarter holding Ash
land, which also concluded with
subs, to three points, all on free
shots. The? got 17 counters them
selves.' The Tornado reservists
finished out the second and
third stanzas for Medford, see
ing action for a total of about
lb quarters. Thirteen men were
in the tiff for Medford and At
for Ashland. All but one Med
f ordite got into the scoring col
umn and Dick Mclaughlin got
his first points of the 'season for
the Tornado. '. . -J7 ; -
Buckets by Jerry Mickle and
Harry Johnson gave Ashland its
jump at the beginning. But
Glenn Peterson got a free goal,
Frank Rector counted from the
field on a fast break and Larry
Copple hit from a corner, for a 5
to 4 Medford edge. . Gene Par
ent put Ashland back in front
with free tosses but Copple

Moscow, Ida. U.fi) The: Uni
versity of Oregon Ducks narrow
ly scored a 41-40 victory over
the University Of Idaho Vandals
in1 a northern division basket
ball session here Saturday. .
At one point in the first half,
Idaho held the ball for seven
minutes without attempting a
shot : when . Oregon went into
zone defense. In the second half,
Oregon stalled so long that
Idaho forward Harlan Melton
and Oregon center Jim Loscutoff
began playing Tic-Tac-Toe hear
the sidelines. r-'.- -. ? : j

Idaho. - b -;? .. j

In the second half, Loscutoff s
ability to tip In missed attempted

gone, he1 scored the first Oregon
field goal in 12V4 minutes and,
moments later, put Oregon ahead
22-21. --. . .. -. . e
Idaho went ahead 23-22 with

found the range from the corner
again for a Medford advantage
of 7 to 6. The Tornado led there
after Medford was able to get in
close for the bulk of its shots.
That fact and a 56 to 32 margin
in rebound retrieving were big
factors in' the Tornado victory.
With 32 field goals in 63 tries
Medford averaged over the .500
mark for the third straight time.
In individual scoring Copple
rolled up 24 and Jerry Kalapus
17 for Medford and Gene Par

best football players in the na
tion returned to their homes and
off-season jobs, today after a hip
and tuck fifth annual Pro Bowl
game which saw the favored
West squad come from behind in
the final period for a 26-10 win.
'-But the game left many ques
tions unanswered With San
Francisco's Y. A. Tittle throw
ing for two touchdowns, Joe
Perry scoring another, and end
Billle Wilson catching a phenom
enal 11. passes for 157 yards, the
43,972 fans filed out of Mem
orial' Coliseum wondering Why
the talent-laden 49ers have never
won a division title.
-I They were puzzled also by the
vagaries of Lou Groza's famed
toe. The big Cleveland tackle
missed two field goals and two
but of three conversions for the
East. vr- -
.And Cleveland's Otto Graham,
playing in his fifth and last Pro
Bowl, passed for a touchdown
in the . first quarter, but there
after could complete only three
of 16 passes. "y - ; ' " 7-7
But the most tantalizing ques
tion was how Billie Wilson time
and again filtered into the open
to catch Tittle's passes. He re
ceived the Halas trophy as the
game's imost valuable player. -
