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

field shots for 17 points and
high tally laurels for the night.
Medford had a 28 to 22 edge
in rebounding in a contest be
tween two teams of equal
height. A good number of "lost
balls", were marked down for
each club in the first half but
play was steadier in the second.
The Tornado didn't get many
shots and didn't hit too well at
the beginning but wound up
with a commendable .414 aver
age for the night from the field.
Along with deliberate play it
was free shots which helped
Grants Pass make a close game
of it. The Cavemen had 15 gift
goals to Medford's eight. Med
ford was better from the field
17 to 12.

Beavers Trounced
75-50 By Stanford
Indians Lead
42-20 at Half
Corvallis, Ore (U.R) Stan
ford's Indians turned loose a
band of ball hawkers here in the
Pacific Coast conference televis
ion game of the day. and before
the afternoon was finished Ore
gon State was lucky to escape
with nothing worse than the 75
to 50 loss.
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.
Extends Lead
In the second half it was more
of the same. Coach Howie Dall
mar s cnarges romped into an
even greater lead and at one
point had a two to one margin
with the score 66 to 33.
The only bright spot in the
afternoon for the 5028 partisan
fans that marched into Gill Coli
seum was the final four minute
performance of sophomore Dave
Gambee.
Gambee, the leading point
producer for the Orange and
Black this season, collected 10 of
his day's 16 points in the wan
ing minutes.
For Stanford it made it four
won in counting play for the
year against a pair of losses. The
Beavers receipted for their
fourth loss in six Coast confer
ence tilts thus far.

Erskine Starts
Ninth Season
With Dodgers
Brooklyn U.R) Right,
hander Carl Erskine, about to
start his ninth season with the
Dodgers, has signed for approxi
mately the same $20,000 he re
ceived a year ago and reported
to Brooklyn officiaols that his
arm is sound again,
Erskine, who sent in his sign
ed contract from Anderson,
Ind., Friday, began brilliantly
in 1955 by winning his first six
games. But he suffered arm
and back trouble after that and
wound up the year with a dis
appointing 11-8 record.
The popular veteran, who led
all. Dodger pitchers with 18 vic
tories in 1954, told Brooklyn
officials that the soreness is
gone from his arm and back
and that he feels he can become
a consistent .winner again. Ers
kine's lifetime record of 100
victories and 57 defeats is one
of the best among all active
pitchers. . '

Indians and at the same time
chalking up their second PCC
win of the season in five starts.

close. The score was knotted
eight times before the Beavers
were able to go out in front to
stay at 23-21 with five minutes
remaining in the half. From the
32-26 halftime margin i t h e
Beavers began to increase the
bulge and twice during the sec
ond half held leads of 14 points.
. Gambee, sharpshooting for
ward, hit for 22 points to lead
both clubs in the scoring column.
