- Talk of a Medford high jaunt
to the state basketball tourna
ment at Eugene it has been go
ing on ever since the start of the
season could buzz louder and
stronger , today in the wake , of
the 70 to 43 victory here Satur
day night over the Klamath
Falls Pelicans. "
I And the Black Tornado, as it
paused to renew vigor for the
remainder of the chase, could
look forward with-confidence.
The same success- that marked
the Tornado's progress through
the first half of the conference
race, if repeated in the second
half and in. the district playoffs,
will get the Medford cagers s- to
the big tourney in a. breeze.
The Southern Oregon confer
ence championship isn't clinched
but the : Black Tornado is well
out in front of the pack with its
record of six wins and no set
backs. It will take mammoth ef
fort on the part of conference
members to calm the blistering
breeze. - - . ;
Three Gam LtaA ,
Medford ' took a full three
game lead in the circuit as the
Pelicans dropped their third de
cision. Grants Pass Saturday re
tained a ray of hope in the loop
with its second win; 42 to 32,
over Ashland, all but eliminat
ing Ashland from contention.
"We'll beat you the first time

seems to be a silent motto in the
league for Medford. It was that
way over the week end as the
Tornado added the Saturday
triumph to a 64 to 51 Friday
win, running its victory string
to 12 and season record to 13-1
for the season. . -:- ,-. ..
J Saturday night's impressive
verdict was a tribute and credit
to, the versatility and -fine bal
ance of power in Coach Frank
