TWELVE MEDrORD (OREOOrT) Bedford Subdues Ashlanders, Pels Down GP in SO League HOl'THKRS OHSCOy COXFKKKNCE STA.NDINGI (As ol Friday) Pet. znn .800 .600 .429 .000 Medford - KUmath Falls Granta Pass Ashland Crater Combatting the Grizzlies roll ing ball control offensive with forceful, crowding defense and some fine set 'em up playmak ing of their own, the Medford Black Tornado hoopsters sub dued a good, tough Ashland ag gregation 47 to 40 at the Hed rick gym here Friday night. With the victory Medford, the defending titlist, kept in stride with Klamath Falls at the head of the pack in the Southern Ore gon conference and District 6 A-l chase. Klamath slaughtered the Grants Pass Cavemen. 60 to 29 in other loop action on Friday. Medford broke up a tight ball game in the third quarter, tak ing charge with control of the backboards, some sharp team work and hot shooting from the field to gain its fourth win in five conference games. The Tor nado broke a 24-all knot 2V4 minutes into the third quarter when Larry Perkins goaled off a feed from Dick McLaughlin. By the end of the third quarter Medford had a 37 to 28 spread. Just over two minutes into the final stanza the margin was 15 points. 43 to 28. Keep Away A Finish Ashland rallied from that point and the Tornado went into a keep away game in the final minutes to stay in front. Klamath got a 20 to 5 first quarter jump on Grants Pass, led 29 to 15 at the half and was in front 45 to 24 after three quarters. The Pelicans were deadly on the free shots and had rebound control. Coach Frank Roelandt's Med fordites held the tricky in and out maneuvering Ashlanders to nine field goals in the conflict. The Grizzlies scored heavily from the free line, however, and had they been as accurate with the gifters in the second half as they were in the first outcome of the game could have been a different story. Ashland made 22 out of 31 free chances for more than half its total tal ly, dunking 14 of 16 gift tries in the first two periods. Med ford recorded 18 field buckets and tossed in 11 points on 20 free opportunities. Tornado players took a 13 to 9 lead in the first quarter, get ting four fielders to Ashland's one. Neil Plumley each hit twice from the field and Jack Eberhart got the two-counter for Ashland. Tornado Cools But after hitting four for nine from the field in the opening canto, the Tornado cooled to two for 12 in the second period. Mel Dailey hit long and mid range shots for the Grizzlies and Eb erhart cashed in a jumper from back of the free line in the sec ond panel and Ashland put in seven free pointers to pull up even with the Tornado 22-all at halftime. Medford shooting warmed up to seven out of 14 tries in the third quarter and the Tornado had backboard edge, despite the absence of tall eager Plumley. who was on the sidelines with four fouls. The Tornado hit five goals in eight attempts in the fourth chukker. Dick Phul swung in and drove for a fielder V minutes into the third quarter for 24 to 22 for Medford. Dave Olson coun tered with a driver around the post to knot the tussle. Perkins then got his shot to put Med ford on top to stay. Midway through the period Dick Copple picked a free shot. McLaughlin followed with a goal from the side then hook ed for another off an assist by Hamlin on a fast break. Per kins passed to Copple who hit a 10-foot jumper for 33 to 24 and the turning point had been passed. 15-Point Spread Albert Hartwell put In a brace of free shots for Ashland but McLaughlin scored in close with Copple's assist. Dailey then got a pair of Lithian gift throws. Perkins scored from close range after taking McLaughlin's pass. That brought the fray to its three quarter pause. Perkins tallied from the side of the circle. Copple hit from 10 feet after Phul's pass on a fast break and McLaughlin swished a jumper from the side of the slot for Medford's 43 to 28 standing. Eberhart got a pair of free points for the Grizzlies and Jack Tobiasson drove off the post for a lay-in for 43 to 32. Phul got a goal for Medford by booming in close. Dailey gained a gifter for Ashland, Eberhart a goal from beside the circle and Dailey a driver from the cor ner and a solo field bucket on a fast break. Eberhart made a free shot and Medford's lead was just five points, 45 to 40, with 46 seconds to play. Phul was all alone for a final Med ford score on a long pass from Hamlin. Rugged Combination The rugged Medford combin ation of Copple, Plumley, Mc- MAIL TRIBUNE FIRES AT BUCKET Medford's Larry Perkins (11) gets off a shot in the Medford-Ashland basketball fracas here Friday night. Going high with Perkins is Albert Hartwell (38) of the Grizzlies. Hart well's left hand seems to be poking a teammate, Jack Tobiasson. Coming up on the action for the Black Tornado is Neil Plumley (35). Medford won 47 to 40. Laughlin and Hamlin enabled Medford to have rebounding margin of 31 to 19 for the game. Plumley because his infractions in the first half was out of the line-up for 12 minutes of the last half, but cleared eight boards in the first half and was leader for the game with 11 re bounds. Eberhart, a strong Ashlander under the boards picked up his fourth foul in the second quarter and was held out of action by coach Earl Iba for some 13 min utes. Nevertheless, the Ashland red head was one of the hign point men of the game with 13 Dailey was high for the contest with 14 and McLaughlin record ed 13. Medford had a .418 field goal average on 18 for 43. The Tornado ability to get re bounds off its offensive zoard and to shake men loose for good shots helped its cause on the second half.
