Speed Prescott of the Ashland
Daily Tidings has made mention
of a new club in the Southern
Oregon Conference. We were
hesitant to say anything about
it until we were sure Klamath
high was a member. The basket
ball organization Speed spoke
of . is called the- "we-got-clob-bered-by-Medf
ord club." Seems
that, while" the Black Tornado
is ineligible for membership, it
conducts the initiation. "

SITTING. PRETTY
: Right now, Medford is "sitting
pretty" in its guest for the con
zerence banner. All of its vic
tories have been by ' convincing
or 'substantial margins and only
a complete reversal of form,' ap
parently, could keep .the . Torna
do from keeping the bunting.
It's the hope that the long break
between' c o n f e r erice halves
proves just a breath catcher and
doesn't break the winning
charm. v ;
borne victories stilly are ne
cessary. Klamath Falls cannot
be counted out. The Pelicans
have four (two with Medford)
of their six-remaining games 'at
home, while Medford will play
four away. The Tornado has
scored its most decisive tri
umphs this year, on rival courts
but Medford clubs, often in the
past, have encountered trouble
at Klamath Falls, n - v ., .,.

Minnesota : and Iowa , took

points and hogged rebounds at
Minneapolis Mondays night as
Minnesota blasted Northwestern

gets his hands above the basket
level, popped in 20 points and

These ; two games made the
Big . Ten .. chase ' a wide-open
scramble, for ;r now "Minnesota
and "Iowa are "the best at 4-2,
four with three - losses, and
only one, Ohio State,' apparently
out of it with four losses. . '
Minnesota ; equalled its all-
time scoring record in beating
Northwestern as Simonovich's
28 points were backed up -by 24
from. Dick Garmaker . and -20
from Chuck, Mencel. Garmaker,
usually, the team's high scorer,
switched tactics and concentrat
