Basketball made its official bow at new Hedrick junior high school hee a rip-roaring, stir ring, resounding occasion as Southern Oregon emerged tri umphal over Portland last night Cm the first of two prep double features highlighting the holiday seasorg in the Rogue river val ley. MSdford high's Black Tornado whirled past the previously un spotted Franklin Quakers 58 to 53 and Grants Pass' Cavemen trimmed the Cleveland Indians 60 to 52 as both Southern Oregon teams erased substantial early deficits and outlasted their met ropolitan foes in furious fin ishes. q Tonight the metro and Rogue quintets trade foes and have at it?ain at Grants Pass. Medford is slated to take on Cleveland at 7:15 p.m. with Grants Pass tussling Franklin in a skirmish which starts about 20 minutes after the final buzzer of the in itial ruckus. Super Effort Super effort was required qf the hard-running Black Tor Qiado cagers to overcome the terrific height advantage of Franklin's Bjarne Jensen and company. And the Medfordites were .more than equal to the task by double -teaming on the agile, sure-shooting 6-foot 9-inch Jen sen, by almost completely re straining his Portland mates and by swishing the ball through the net, themselves with consider able and consistent accuracy from long range. The encounter took on the ap pearance oof a Franklin walk away at the start as the Quakers, paced by Jensen, manufactured a nine-point, 17 to 8, margin and led 17 to 12 at the quarter. But Medford's high - spirited spar kling comeback closed the gap completely by midway in the second stanza and the conflict saw-10 tie scores and seven lead changes before the Tornado I went ahead to stay in the final two minutes of the game. Halftime and third quarter tallies favored Medford 31 to 27 and 47 to 45. Tribe Leads by 14 Cleveland took a 14-marker, 20 to 6, jump on Grants Pass in the initial canto of last night's opener. But the Cavemen , warmed up and settled down, while the Indians were less poised after that, and Grants Pass outscored the Portland school in each succeeding panel. It wasn't until the third per iod, however.hat the Cavemen j&nally caught the Tribe. Grants Pass jiiped on top for the first time, 44 to 42, on Chuck Weller's pusher with eight seconds left in the quarter. The Cavemen then stayed in front through the fourthession. Cleveland led at halftime 31 to 25. Medford had to blast away a SURROUNDED BY University of San Francisco players, John Glaser (35) of Marquette, takes rebound in Invitational Tour nament in Chicago. Top ranking Dons came from behind to win 65-58. From left, Bill Russell, Jay Schauer (41), Mike Farmer (17), K. C. Jones (4), Carl Boldt (19). (International) San Francisco, In Finals of Holiday Mix By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sporis Wriier G Will UCLA, the last basket ball team to beat San Francisco way back more than a year ago, be the team that will prevent the Dons from setting a new scord for consecutive victor ies. That's the big question that popped up in the pop-shot sport today as both California teams gained the final round of the Holiday Festival tournament in New York's Madison Square gar den. In so doing, San Francisco chalked up its 35th straight tri umph only four short of the major-college mark. Mallan Key Man The Dons, with sub Bill Mal leiscoring the key baskets in- four-counter, 51 to 47, Quaker lead in the fourth quarter to squeeze in front for keeps. Franklin had taken the advan tage on a fielder by Jerry Jarboe and free" tosses by Jarboe and Jack Luhrs. Dick McLaughlin hit a jumper from the key and Bob Tisdel popped in a long set shot to deadlock the game. Jen sen hit a jumper for 53 to 51 but Neil Plumley jumped his only field goal of the night at a cru cial time to knot the fray again. Cearley Makes It With 1:56 left on the clock Lloyd Cearley sank the first of two free attempts for Medford for 54 to 53. The Tornado grabbed the ball on the rebound and began stalling. Personal fouls interrupted the strategy. McLaughlin and Jensen missed shots but Bob Tisdel dunked in a pair of gifters for 56 to 53. Ernie Spargur flubbed two Franklin tries from the foul line. Medford controlled the ball for the next half minute and with two seconds left Tisdel goaled from the right corner. Dick McLaughlin, Johnny Foust and Neil Plumley had the major shore of duties for Med ford in guarding the skyscrap ing Jensen. They did yeoman work and with Dick Copple fought a great game under the boards. But the capable Jensen still managed nine field goals and pulled in lots of rebounds. No other Quaker got more than two buckets from the field. The Tornado was most ef fective against the tall Port lander in the second quarter when he got only a single field shot. He was boxed in well by the Medfordites and. passes by Quakers trying to feed him over the Tornado defense went awry. Jensen Scores 27 Jensen got nine free points and was high scorer with 27. Tisdel, who did some fine ball hawking along with Lloyd Cear ley and Copple, headed Tornado point making with ' 16. He got seven field ' goals. McLaughlin hit five from the field and had 12 counters. Medford put in a number of close in shots but was damaging to Franklin from long or key hole range. It was this shooting which made up for lost balls and a lot of missed free shots. The Tornado outgunned Frank lin from the field 20 to 15 but the Quakers made 23 of 39 free tries to Medford's 18 for 35. The Tornado caught up with Franklin at tfie four minute mark of the second quarter at 23-all on Copple's free toss. Tie scores that followed were 25-all, 27-all, 37-all, 39-all, 43-all, 45 all, 47-all, 51-all and 53-all. McLaughlin and Foust of Med ford and Glen Hutton of Frank lin fouled out in the fourth quar ter. Ron Davis's corner pusher en abled Grants Pass to tie Cleve UCLA Lock stead of All-America Bill Rus sell, came from behind to wal lop Holy Cross, 67-51, in the semi-final round Wednesday night after trailing by as much as nine points. Fast-breaking UCLA breezed to a 72-57 con quest of defending champ Du- quesne to set up Friday night's finale. The Uclans handed the Dons their only loss of last season, 47-40, at Westwood, Calif., Dec 9, 1954. They did it by getting ahead and then playing a "slow motion" game, and Coach John ny Wooden said he hopes to use the same tactics again Friday. Erigham Young, ranked 11th nationally, captured the title in Detroit's Motor City tournament by trouncing Detroit in the final round 99-77. "'; Thursday, December II, 1155 QUAKER QUINT; BY INDIANS; T GP TONIGHT land at 40-all at 1:36 of the third chukker. Jerry Jones gave the Tribe the lead with a shot from the key with a minute to go but Roger Taylor tied it for GP with a long one. Weller then gave GP the lead. Grants Pass led by five and seven points most of the last quarter but a field goal and two gift throws by the Indian's Hugh Springer cut the margin to 55 to 52 with 2:15 left. Tom Burnet potted a sleeper bucket, Larry Henderson scored on a feed and Burnet got a free bucket to com plete the scoring. Springer, who sparked Cleve land in the first quarter with 11 points, had 25 for the game. He made 11 free throws. Chuck Nevi, cog of the GP second per iod comeback with five field shots, had 20 points for the game with nine field goals. Hender son, Davis and Walker gave the Cavemen backboard strength while Allen Drews, Nevi and Burnet contributed to the floor game. Vern Jones was top floor man for the smaller Indian quint. Medford's victory was its fifth in six games and Franklin's loss its first in six engagements.

Land vs. Air Tilt Possible In East-West Grid Tussle By HAL WOOD San Francisco (U.R) When East meets West in the annual Shrine classic on Saturday, it probably will be land power vs. air power in the age-old contro versy of the gridiron. Indications today are that the West will 'take to, the air with talented quarterbacks Jim Con- tratto of Southern California and John Roach of Southern Metho dist doing the hurling. And the East will depend upon a ground game, with the great Howard (Hopalong) - Cassady of Ohio State, Tony Branoff of Michigan and Len Moore of Penn State doing the bulk of the ball-packing on the end sweeps; and Don Schaefer of Notre Dame and Chuck Sticka of Trin ity cracking the line. It had been expected that the East team would stick pretty close to the ground. The " lead coach is Woody Hayes of Ohio State and he is a noted believer Kiwanians Donate To Olympic Fund Medford Kiwanis club mem bers have contributed $47.05 to a fund to send a United States relay team to the Olympic games next year in Australia. The project is being sponsor ed by the Richmond, Calif., Ki wanis club which has sent "ba ton banks" to various clubs throughout the country to be filled with 25-cent pieces. Members of the Medford club put contributions in the bank and added the money from fines and a "kitty." JOHANSSON TIME BEST Spout Springs, Ore. (U.R) The second cross country trial for the U. S. Nordic combined ski team was held here yester day and Sven Johansson turned in the best time of 64 minutes and 27 seconds for the nine-mile run. PILOTS PLAY BEARCATS Portland U.R) The Port land Pilots, boasting a 4-2 rec ord so far this season, entertain the Willamette Bearcats at How ard Hall here tonight. The Bear cats edged the Pilots, 61-60, in an overtime game at Salem sev eral weeks ago. liiiliiliSSitHi JERRY JENNINGS Faces Christean in Bout Loren Christean Scraps Friday On Ashland Card Ashland Loren Christean, Medford Police Athletic league, and Jerry Jennings, Ashland, will be foes Friday, December 30, in the semi-main of a Ki wanis club-sponsored benefit boxing card at South Oregon college gymnasium. Jennings is a ring veteran and Loren Christean, 175-pounder, is an up-and-coming scrapper who hits well with either hand. The main event will feature, Larry Lewis, Medford PAL, the AAU state flyweight champion, against Dick Morgan, Ashland Kiwanis Boys Club. Proceeds will go to the Ash-land-Talent Youth fund and to the boys club. A 10-bout card is planned. A middleweight tussle will match Don Mitchell, Ash land, ex-Navy " ship ' champ, against Ruben Miller, Kiwanis Boys club, who is regarded as a "very tough" boy. A special mix will be held between Ken Jones, president of the ATY council and Gordon Hays, chairman of the ATY fund drive. RIVERA SIGNS Chicago CU.R) . The ' Chicago White Sox counted four satisfied players, for 1956 today with the signing of centerfielder Jim Rivera. Rivera, currently play ing winter ball in Mexico, hit .264 for the White Sox last sea son and led the American League with 25 stolen bases. in ground warfare. With Hopa long Cassady to spearhead the at tack it appears a solid choice. The . two-platoon . system will be in effect the same rules as used in the professional ranks. This will result in the ball-packers getting a chance to rest on defense. Cassady, who has been in a run-down condition, has missed quite a bit of practice, but Hayes has a lot of confidence in his Ail-American star. The ends will get the workout for the Western squad. It is no ticeable that, while each team was allowed 24 players, the West choose only eight men for the backfield, the East nine. The extra player on the West team is an end. Head Coach Jess Hill has five great pass-receiving wings in Leon Clarke of USC; Henry Greminger of Baylor; . Lamar Meyer . of Colorado, Menan Schriewer of Texas and A. D. Williams of College of Pacific. Pacific Lutheran Tops Linfield Quintet 75-53 Tacoma (U.R) Linfield's Wildcats dropped a 75-53 deci sion to Pacific Lutheran in a non- conference basketball game here last night. Phil Nordquist hit 19 points for the winners while sophomore Bill Machamer hit 17 for Linfield. The two teams meet again tonight. Beaver Ticket Sales $105,000 Portland (U.R) Advance ticket sales for the Portland Beavers' 1956 baseball season at Multnomah Stadium have reached $105,000, General Man ager Joe Ziegler said today. Ziegler said the figure was "way ahead of any other minor league baseball operation in the nation" for the 1956 season, still 3y2 months away. SWAPS PICKED Agua Caliente, Mex. (U.R) Swaps replaced Nashua today as the Caliente Future Book favor ite for the $100,000 Santa Anita Handicap after a S6,000 bet on the Kentucky Derby winner was received. Swaps is now a 21S-1 favorite while Nashua is quoted at 5-1.
