big upset of the season by nip
ping The Dalles.

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVXlf
Three Quintets in Running
For Coast Conference Toga
By NEAL CORBETT
United Press Sports Writer
The Pacific Coast conference j
basketball season closes this
week end with three teams still
hoping for at least a share of
the conference title.
The University of California
presently holds the lead with a
12-2 mark, but the Bears will
have to take the sizzle out of
the red hot Southern California
Trojans if they want to go to the
NCAA regional playoffs in Cor
vallis as the best in the loop.
California has already cinched
the Corvallis berth, but will have
to down Southern California
twice to go as the champion.
UCLA and Washington, both
barred by NCAA edict, still have
a chance to share the spotlight.
Bruins Finish
UCLA has completed its sea
son and boasts a 13-3 record.
Washington has an 11-3 mark
and is a heavy favorite to sweep
its series this week end with
Washington State.
That means the Bears can't
settle for a split In Southern
California and certainly can't
afford to lose two. A double in
means the championship, a split
and a Washington sweep in Pull
man would mean a three-way
tie, and a double loss sends Cali
fornia to Corvallis as only third
best in the conference.
And the Bears may not find
the Trojans easy. USC made an
unimpressive start this season,
but finished with a flourish
which included a victory over
UCLA.
DOfBLES LEADERS:
Class A Kathv Sasaki and Doris
Allen. Portland. 1103: Class B Karen
Boardman and Rosalie Nelson. Bend.
1008; Class C Judy Johnson, Mc
Minnville. and Edith Fedfield, Med
ford. 1043: Class D Vire-inia Finch
and Irene Doty, Roseburg, 840.
