But the high-riding Pels were ex tended into an overtime against a terrific Medford team, play ing its finest of the season, Sat urday night before they could claim a 59 to --53 decision to maintain that exalted position fid their plac at the head of the standings. Klamath employed the ad (j vantage of onesided opportunity atCJne tree tnrow line in ine fight to a stand-off with the Tor nado in the regulation playing time. (nd, with a couple of Medford's bigger and more rug ged men having fouled out, the Pels utilized their edge in alti tude for crucial tip in buckets in the extra period. Two free shots by Tom Ham lin of Medford with 26 seconds left to play knotted up the con test at 51 apiece and sent the action into the overtime. Bob Niles put fen a: shot from the cor ner for the Pelicans and Dick Copple scored on a steal to tie up the play at 53-all. Glenn Moore anch Cliff Sutherlin came through with follow shots for Klamath and Butch Kimpton salted away the tangle with a pair of giflers. Free Throws Male Difference Medford's f u r i e d Tornado fired from tlee field with more accuracy and handled the ball better than on Friday whei Klamath won 62 io 43 and the Pear city crew outgunned the Pels from the field 24 to 16. But Klamath gained 89 chances to score from the free 'line and made good on 27. The Tornado, on the other hand, had only nine chariVy opportunities and cash ed in on five, all byHamlin. A total of 22 personal fouls were whistled on the Tornado players as they, battled the tall KF five. But only six were charged to the Pelicans. A doz en infractions had been tooted on M&lford befoje the first was called on the home court Peli cans. No personals was charged t the Klamath club tn the first half. The pelicans were dead ens right from the start at the fret stripe, putting in all of their first1 10 tries and cannmg 12 of 16 attempts in the first half. Tornado Uses Zona Defensive Oactics unique for a Frank Roelandt coached Med ford high hoop contingent con tributed Tornado ability to turn the tide and make a close fight of it after Keamath three times had gained seven point bulges, the last time at 19 to 12. Med ford turned to a zone defense for "the first time ever." It was just thrown at the Peli cans without any work in prac tices, according to the Tornado mentor. And it succeeded in 0 keeping most of Mhe Klamath shooting at long range until the Tornado lost what match height it had for the play in the extra portion. Klamath, which had held Medford and Copple down with a box zone with Lee McGill man-to man on the Tornado for ward on Friday, was less able to cope with the Medford gun ning on Saturday. The Pels switched to man-to-man in the second half. Copple rang in 11 field buckets for 22 points and high pr the game. Dick Mc Laughlin made six field shots for Medford, more than any Pelican. Five Go Whole Way Moore of KF was second high in scoring with 18. He, Suther land and Kimpton each cached eight free tallies. Coach Don Peterson stuck vith his starting quint through out the entire contest. Klamath was in front much of the time during the ruckus but the Tornado was on top on three occasions and the score was tied five times. The Pels led at the quarter 17 to 12. Medford had knotted the count at 24 each by the half and Klamath got on top 39 to 35 at the end of the third period. With the score that close, the fourth quarter was a tense one for the full house of fans. The pam opened with Kimpton get ting a bucket to give Klamath a six point spread at 41 to 35. Neil Plumley hit from free line range for Medford and Hamlin collected a pair of gifters for 41 to 39. Moore made it 43 to 39 with two from the free line. Dick McLaughlin put in a fol low shot for Medford for 43 to 41. One Poirft Margin Nilcs fired in from the corner and Kimpton from the foul stripe while Topple hit a jump er for Medford. Score was 46 to 45 with four minutes to play and the count remained tha,t un til Moore pu in a brace of free counters with two minutes to plav. A half-minute later Mc Laughlin plunked a hook but Klamath was still on top 43 to 47. BLACK TORNADO OVERTIME AT KF Moore dunked a goal for the Pel's and Sutherland added a free shot for 51 to 47. Copple then put in his 10th fielder of the evening with 45 seconds to go and Hamlin added his free shots to tie the fray. In these final moments Med ford had lost its tallest man, 6-5 Neil Plumley, on personal in fractions and the Tornado cause suffered further setback in the extra time when McLaughlin was chased to the bench for his fifth foul. Medford Players Rest Many of the Tornado fouls were assessed for play under the defensive board and others came in the scramble for free balls. Few were awarded to Pels in the act of shooting. Medford draws a bye this week end in the SOC chase and Coach Roelandt said that his MEDF0rU)vJWrRIBUNK SIPdDLHjTrS Ashland Grizzlies Dump Crater High Quint 48-34 Ashland Ashland high. spilled in double overtime Fri day by Crater High, got back into the Southern Oregon con ference basketball win groove Saturday night by pasting the Comets 48 to 34 here.
