The Pels employed a four-man box zone with Lee McGill man-to-manning Copple, who was held to three field goals, in the first half. In the second half the KF club went to me more ormoaox two-mree zone. The Black Tornado lost Cop ple on personal infractions with about three minutes left in the third quarter. Two free tosses each by Suth erland and Bob Niles gave KF its opening lead. Neil Plumley then got a gifter for Medford.
