Result, was .Med- iora mgns xizin straigni sou thern Oregon Conference basket ball triumph and assurance- of lone occupancy in' first "place-'at the halfway pause of the confer ence campaign. : : ' Klamath Falls was the Black Tornado victim by a count of 64 to 51. But before the Pelicans succumbed, they gave the high powered Medfordites the tough est opposition vaey ve naa so far in the circuit. . Medford's offensive lacked sharpness and m i s f i r e d in streaks the Tornado : has 'seen better nights but it was up against a .club which matched it in height, fought it on about even terms unde r the back- boards succeeded . in toning down its highly regarded .fast break and frequently broke up its more deliberate attack. , . Score- In. Close ' v - Yet,! it was .' the element" of slickness in the Tornado attack, its ability to get shots in close in and the ability; to. sink them which won the victory. The Med fordites were not too effective at ' long range. -But ' they didn't have to be. They took the big share of their shots at close range and made most of them to. continue hitting at the 50 per cent pace they have maintained in recent games. ..-.. ,-.- .- Klamath hit at close: range ioo but not so often or effective as the home club. The 1 Tornado came through despite injury handicaps unre ported prior to the. tussle. t Bud Kastner, who fouled out early in the second half, has recurring trouble with a cord behind his k"n e e. It sUpped-;in practice Thursday and Kastner1 played with, his leg bound Tup. Glenn Peterson Hurned his", ankle on Thursday and couldn't spring from the floor on it. Bob Tisdel was unable, to.; play . Friday be-i cause or an axuue sprain. , - Led Whole Distance . . , . : i Medford held front position on the scoreboard 'throughout the Friday tangle- but-not-until well into the fourth4 and4 con cluding quarter did the Tornado have its triumph tucked.'away. ' Foust with all his seven points and Larry Copple and Jerry Kalapus with, two, field .goals apiece spurred the cTornado's surge away. Medford went into the windMip canto, with," a 45 to 38 advantage. Guy Munsell hit his third long shot in about five minutes for Klamath to make it 45 to 40. :" 7:1, Then a half -minute into the quarter Foust found the range. Copple next : plunked in - a -rebound shot and followed at the 2-minute mark with a fast break bucket. With 3 minutes up and Medford turning to ball control, playing for the sure shot, Foust tallied from the key. That made it 53 to 41. Medford then widened to 17- point margins of 60 to 43 and 62 to 45. Reserves filtered into 41 m-..-j . linjm attar tVo clock read 2Vz minutes to play and a complete team of Medford non-starters finished the con flict. Klamath reserves were also predominate in the ' final 'mo ments and saw more duty .than Medfords in the' game. H ;r-'J v Spurty Patltrn . i f,t Another Tornado runaway seemed ,likely at the start , but Klamath came back to give the Medfordites a rugged battle by snurts. Pattern"" of the .combat saw Medford pick up fairly com fortable margins only, to have the Pelicans spurt up and tight en the tussle. . , ;. The Tornado had a 7 to 0 lead in the first three minutes of play. It was ahead by 15 to 4 by the 6-minute mark. Klam ath on a hook shot byDave'lr-r Olivo, a steal by Jack Sumtsch, a fielder by Marlin Causey and a fast break shot and two free tosses by D'Olivo, while Copple ' got a goal and a gifter for Med ford, hacked the difference; to 18 to 14. Frank Rector's Jump shot for Medford made it 20 to 14 at the quarter. . . Medford worked to 24 to 17 advantage in the second period and the Pels cut it to Z4 toZi all on free shots. A' 28 to 21 bulge slipped to 28 to 25., But Copple fielder ed from tne corner and got a pair of free heaves along with two by Rector and f one by Kalapus for a 35 to 25 halftime standing.- -Dominate Quarter - - The Pelicans, outhustling and and .outswapping Medford, pret ty well dominated the t a i r d quarter. Medford was outscored 13 to 10 in the panel and once saw its margin slip to 42 to 33, Guy Munsell with two long shots and D'Olivo with two tip-ins af ter missed free shots were chief ly responsible for scoring dam- aee. - . . .
