The .Medford .Black Tornado
blew up t good breeze,, turned
gusty and. finished.; with a big
whirl on its home mapiecourt
Friday night. Result, was .Med-

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. - . . .
D"01ivo's success at the ; free
shot line where he got seven in
eight tries helped him to high
scoring honors with 19. Copple
outdid D'Olivo from the field
seven to six, and with, three free

for today, Bolt has a 203 total
