O C e TETf MEDTORD fOHESOlT) MAIL THIBUNE Capable Grants Pass Hoopmen Bow To Black Tornado 42-39 Medford Leads Conference Play SOUTHERN' OREGON CONFERENCE STANDINGS (Friday Night) W. Medford - - 5 Klamath Fall 3 Grants Pass 1 Ashland 1 L. Prt. o l.ooo 2 .600 4 .200 4 .200 They may not have an im pressive, sparkling record out the Grants Pass high hoopmen are capable of creating anxiety aplenty in the Southern Ore- con Conference. And me iviea- ford felack Tornado found out O first hand although it kept its poise Friday during a trouble some evening at uranis i-ass. Tornado cagers ran their 5 conference triumph string to fivl straight against no defeats but only after narrowly avert ing upset by the slow em down Cavemen in Oregon's Climate city". After a bitter skirmish to o ahead of the Cavemen and to establish a substantial spread the Medfordltes were forced to hang determinedly at the fin ish to claim a 42 to 39 edge over their fervent foes. u The outcome enabled the Black Tornado to maintain its two-game leadership over sec ond place Klamath falls m tne District 6 A-l banner Dauie, Klamath grabbed a 3-2 standing in the SO loop Friday by tumb ling the Ashland Grizzlies oz to 55 at Klamath Falls. Grants Pass, in its big effort to be the first club in the con ference to calm the Tornado in two seasons, placed chief re liance on tight defense and a slow, deliberate attack which worked for shots at close radius and gave the home club control of the ball much of the time. And despite the slowdown pace it was a tense affair which rea ched its climax with just two seconds left to play. Chance To Tie Chuck Weller of Grants Pass stepped to the free line on Dick McLaughlin's infraction with this brief time remaining. The Cavemen trailed by 38 to 42 but they still had a chance to tie the score. Weller made his first shot and then apparently delib erately missed the second, hop ing a teammate would pump in the rebound and draw a foul and free shot to send the tangle into overtime. The effort failed with both the Tornado and Referees Jim Bocchi and Harold Douglas wise to the seeming strategy. The officials gave Medford the ball out of bounds on the delib erate muff but the Tornado gang had instructions from the bench to permit the field goal try, had not Weller been called on the play. G Grants Pass trying for close jumpers and pushers and for goals or free shots off drive in attempts hopped in front at the start of action and it wasn't un til the second canto that the Tornado could tie up the fracas and get the lead. Medford Pressed Medford resorted to a press ing defense toward . the end of the first quarter to launch its push on top. A neat steal and dribble in shot by Tisdel started it. Medford, behind 4 to 6 at the end of the first quarter, roll ed in 16 markers and limited Grants Pass to another six in the second period to grind into the lead in the scuffle. The sec ond period effort gave the Tor nado a 20 to 12 half time gap. In the third frame Medford took 10-point leads of 24 to 14, 26 to 16. 28 to 18 and 32 to 22 but the standing at the end of the panel was eight points differ ence again at 32 to 24. John Foust on Bob Tisdel's feed made it 34 to 24 at the final quarter opened but sharp shooting Tom Bernet hit from key slot for GP for 34 to 26. Tisdel swished a shot from the corner for another spread of 10 the last one. Weller dropped into free shots for 36 to 28 then Neil Plumley got a free one for Medford for 37 to 28. Bernet scored off a held ball tip and Weller sank a Iongie to slice the Tornado bulge to 37 to 32 Play Keep Away Foust fought free under the hoop to make it 39 for Medford but a moment later fouled Drews who put in the 33rd and 34th points for the Cavemen There were 3 minutes 10 sec onds left and the Tornado turn ed to a keep away game. Tisdel saw a chance and drove for a bucket, made it as he was foul ed by Weller -and added the gifter for 42 to 34. Bernet countered with a jumper and with two free heaves to set the stage for the final seconds. As the second period opened Plumley scored off a feed to deadlock the ruckus at 6-all. Chuck Nevi of GP and Dick Copple of the Tornado traded tickets for 8-all. Free tosses by Allen Drews and Bernet were matched by Copple. Then Cop- pie stepped to the free stripe again. He flipped in his first shot and missed the second but got a third try because a Cave man moved into the slot too soon. Dick made the point for 12 to 10 and permanent Medford lead. Foust and McLaughlin tal lied on feeds by Copple and Tisdel goaled from the side as Nevi got a pair of gifters for GP for an 18 to 12 score. Copple swished a 35-foot pusher as the halftime buzzer sounded for 20 to 12. The Cavemen kept an eagle eye on Medford's high scoring Tisdel but he had five field goals and headed Tornado scor ing despite their efforts with 13 points. Concentration on Tis del occasionally let other Med fordites free for shots. The Tor nado got most of its shots close in but not too frequently off a fast break. But attention on Tis del did let Lloyd Cearley get down the floor for three fast break goals in the third quarter. Copple and Plumley were Medford's leading rebounders for the night with nine retrieves apiece. Copple was the chief feeder and second high Medford scorer with 12. McLaughlin plucked seven rebounds. Tom Bernet .was the GP of fensive thorn in Medford's flesh. He had some good goaling chances and made good on sev en of them and added three MedfordM'ribune rPODIK B Games Won by Prospect, Talent, St. Mary's Fives; Crusaders Meet SH Today JACKSON COUNTY B LEAGUE STANDINGS W.

It was Stanford's ball game all the way after the early minutes when the score was knotted five times, the last time at an even dozen for each club. Court Press At this point the Indians be gan to turn their modified full court press info their most effec tive offensive weapon as time af ter time Stanford was in to break up any Beaver scoring desire be fore it had even materialized in to a threat. With the count even at 12-12, Carl Isaac engineered a drive for the Indians that collected an other 12 counters while the Beavers failed to dent the hoop. Isaac, in to break up the Oregon State routine by the time the ball got to mid-court, collected eight of those points himself as he broke in for the cripple after the steal. With 7:11 still remaining in the first half Bill Bond took up the reins where Isaac left off and led the Indians to a . halftime bulge of 22 points at 42-20. , In this scoring session Bond pump ed in eight counters to send the Beavers to the dressing room at intermission with little to be thankful for except remem brance of Friday night's battle 'when they had upset the favored Indians, 69 to 59.
