Flashy USC Wins
Friday 58-47
Los Angeles (U.R) The
University of Southern Califor

gon State threat in the first half
Saturday and then went on to
score a convincing 84-53 victory
over the Beavers to sweep the
two-game series.
Southern California won Fri

times, and then USC rallied for
six straight points to bring the
count to 28-22. The Trojans held
the margin and left the court at
halftime with a 36-31 margin.
Toy With Beaven .
They seemed to toy with the
Beavers in the second half, and
the Oregon State attack fell
apart. Coach Charlie Twogood
took advantage of the situation
and used his entire bench. All 12
Trojans got into the scoring col
umn. Jim Kaufman led the balanced
Trojan attack with 16 points on

ing the Beavers, 58-47, in the op
ening game of their series before
2,000 fans at the Pan Pacific au
ditorium. After getting off to a quick 9-4
lead, the Trojans undorked an
all-court pressing defense, which
had the Beavers tied in knots.
The visitors got very few shots
in the first half of the first per
iod. Gap Closed
With five minutes to play in
the first half, SC had a 15-point
lead, 26-11, and Coach Forrest
Twogood decided to give his
starting five a rest and inserted
a new team which seemed ' to
spark the Beavers into a rally.
Oregon State closed the gap to
25-32 at the half.
Dave Gambee, Oregon State
sophomore forward and leading
scorer, who had been held with
out a field goal, in the first half,
started the second part of the

Badgers Win
As Kalapus
Rings in 14
By UNITED PRESS
Pacific walloped Whitman, 72
54, and College of Idaho down
ed Lewis & Clark, 71-67, in
Northwest conference basketball
games Friday night.
At Forest Grove, Pacific
zoomed to its second win in three
conference starts this season,
jumping into an early lead over
the Missionaries and holding it
throughout the game. The Bad
gers led at half-time, 41-23.
Center Jerry Kalapus led Pa
cific with 14 points. High scorer
for the game, however, was
Whitman's Bob Becker with 18.
Fourth Straight
College of Idaho went on to its
fourth straight conference vic
tory at Portland, but not before
the Pioneers of Lewis & Clark
had thrown a scare into the high
riding Coyotes.
Trailing only by a two-point
margin, 69-67, with 52 seconds
left to play, the , Pioneers went
into a stall, apparently hoping
for a game-tying basket just at
end of the game. The tactic fail
ed, however,- when they lost the
ball under the College of Idaho
basket and the Coyotes took
quick advantage of the change
in fortunes when Rodger Judd

Phoenix High's veteran cage
aggregation pushed into lone un
beaten lead in the Rogue league
Friday night.
The Pirates stayed in front al
most all the way to subdue a bat
tling Crater Comet quintet 51
to 40 while Eagle Point was
trimming Illinois .Valley 46 to
34.
It was the third conference
victory for Phoenix and first set
back in three loop scrapes for
the Comets. Eagle Point took ov
er third spot in the standings
with its initial loop win of the
season.
Phoenix utilized its more ex
perience and finesse, an edge in
quickness and ballhawking its
ability to maneuver for. vital
close in shots and more frequent
opportunities at the free throw
line to crack the Comets at Cen
tral Point. The Comets, never
theless, came through-with some
spirited hawking and swiping of
their own, gave the Pirates a
good spirited fight under the
backboards, made it a tussle all
the way and still threatened in
the final minutes.
Eagles Lead by 20
Eagle Point kept an upper
hand on the Cougars over the
whole route and had a 20 point
spread in the Cave Junction
skirmish. Eagle quarterly advan
tages were 11 to 9, 22 to 16 and
36 to 20. Board control aided the
triumph as EP handed the IV
crew its 10th straight defeat
against no wins this season.
Jack Greb of the Eagles was
scoring leader with 19 pointers
and Hpward Pickle collected 15
for Illinois Valley.
At Central Point the Comets
were victims of cold shooting in
the early stages of the game but
hit with more accuracy as the
game progressed and wound up
with the same number of field
goals as the Pirates, 18, .and a
better gunning average, .385 .to
327. But Phoenix players put in
15 of 21 free shots, while Crater
dunked in only four for seven
tries, to produce the victory mar
gin. Phoenix was the front runner
at every scheduled intermission,
16 to 12, 28 to 24 and 36 to 30
Crater held thevlead only once,
and briefly, 24 to 23 in the sec
ond quarter. After a 30 to 26
standing in the third quarter, the
Comets could never get closer
than within six points of the Pir
ates.
Gap Closed
Phoenix's widest spreads were
11 points, 47 to 36 and the final
count of 51 to 40. However, the
Pirates' led by only six points,
42 to 36, with 3V4 minutes re
maining. A long shot by John
Shama and close in bucket off a
break by Bob Gray cut a 10
point gap.
Bill Madden with side corner
and close in shots was high
point man for Phoenix with 17
while Jim Korth hit mostly
from close in getting 15 mark
ers. John Shama topped Crater
point getters with 12. He also
got the same number of re
bounds fof the Comets. Delmar
