Tornado Takes on Ashland Here
This Evening, On Grizzly Floor
Saturday; GP at Klamath Falls
Medford high's Black Tornado
seeks to hold to at least a tie
in the Southern Oregon confer
ence basketball standings,
tussling Ashland tonight and
Saturday while the other co
leaders of the circuit, Klamath
Falls and Grants Pass, knock
heads in another series.
Ashland and the Tornado col
lide at Hedrick gym here this
evening and at Ashland tomor
row. Varsiiy frays will be at
8:15 p m. on both occasions with
junior varsity tip-off times
around 6:30 p.m. Grants Pass
will be at Klamath for the other
conference contention.
While Medford and Klamath
are the favorites in the loop and
while the Pelicans beat Ashland
twice after splitting with the
Black Tornado, no easy series is
being anticipated by Medford's
defending champions. The Tor
nado "has a job cut out for it-

Oregon Opposes WSC;
OSC, Washington Mix
By NEAL CORBETT
United Press Sports Writer
The Stanford Indians may not
be the big winners on the Paci
fic Coast conference basketball
scene this season, but they're
certainly spoilers and they'll
be gunning for another "un
beaten" team tonight when they
meet OJjfornia.
The Redmen weren't able to
handle the Bears in an earlier
encounter, but they tagged hope
ful Oregon State with its first
loss and then chopped Washing
ton's unbeaten string of four
games.
Washington bounced back to
defeat the Indians and will be
out to extend its new streak
, against Oregon State tonight and
Saturday. Washington State and
Oregon will meet in a pair, while
UCLA, Southern California and
Idaho are idle.
Stanford, which plays Santa
Clara Saturday night, figures it
might have what it takes to end
Cal's unbeaten record of five
victories. The Indians will be
playing on their own court and
' they have Carl Isaacs, who was
working out the football kinks
when the two teams met last
time.
Might Be Enough
Isaacs played a big part in
. Stanford's split with Washing
Ion last week, and Coach Howie
Dallmar believes he may give
the Indians just enough, Jiejp to
get by Cal's potent deftpe.
The officials will have to
wear elevator shoes to keep a
. close watch on the Washington
Oregon State series.
The Husky attack is built
round Bruno Boin (8-10) and
Doug Smart (8-7), while Oregon
State relies on Gary Goble (6-8)
and Dave Gambee (6-7) while
Ralph Carroll (6-8) and Wayne
Moss (6-8) are around if needed.
The Washington State-Oregon
jeries will be played in the shad
ows of the conference dungeon.
The Cougars could turn over the
shackles to Oregon by defeat
ing the Ducks tonight but they
would have to do it again Satur
day night to keep them there.
How They Stand '
The present PCC standings
are: California 5-0, UCLA 4-0,
Washington 5-1, Oregon State
2-2, Stanford 2-3. USC 1-3. Idaho
2-6. and Washington State 1-5.
There are no games scheduled
in the California Basketball as
sociation, but Loyola is having
a rather stormy visit to Hawaii.
Thursday night the University
of Hawaii chuckling over what
was termed its 79-62 "upset' win
over' Loyola Wednesday plas

Crocker, a "hot weather" golfer
from below the equator, was the
favorite today as a star-studded
field teed off in the S5.000 Lake
Worth Women's Open Golf tour
nament. The seniorita from Montevi

en's record 67 in the final round
of the Tampa Open last Sunday
after the weather warmed up
and showed she still is in form
Thursday with a two-under-par
68 practice round over the Lake
Worth Golf club course.
Betsy Rawls of Spartanburg,
S.C.. who plays well despite the
weather conditions, beat Miss
Crocker for top money at Tampa
by one stroke and hopes to do it
again. Californian Mickey
Wright, winner of the Sea

threat in a field of 24 pros.

ford mentor, declared this morn
ing. Roelandt pointed to strong
rivalry between the two schools
and said that the Tornado looks
for a series as tough or tougher
than the one with Klamath Falls.
The tutor looked for both sides
to be fired up for the fray, the
Grizzlies having new hope with
their .new system and the Tor
nado striving to protect its con
ference and district laurels.
Ashland Ball Control
The Ashlanders under coach
Earl Iba will match a set 'em up,
ball control style of offense
against a rugged Medford gang
which-likes to drive but is adapt
able, also to more deliberate ac
tion. Medford will be trying for
backboard rebounding advantage
to give the Ashlanders less op
portunity to control the ball. The
Tornado has some height edge
that it aims to capitalize upon.
Roelandt indicated that he
would have Dick Copple, Dick
McLaughlin, Neil Plumley and
Tom Hamlin as starters this eve

Rev. Bob Richards, pole vault

Red-Hot Rivalry
Courtney's appearance revives
the red-hot competition between
him and Arnie Sowell, the Pitt
speedster who is defending
champion in the 1,000 yards.
Courtney beat Sowell in the 800
meters at Melbourne,- but the
Pitt entry turned back the form

dash, and' Jenkins defends
against Josh Culbreath and the
perennial Reggie Pearman.
