EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Tornado,
Medford high's 1958 basket
ball version of the Black Tor
nado, figured to be facing the
Tornado's toughest Southern
Oregon conference slate in
four seasons, opens its league
contention this evening and
Saturday in what is expected
to prove the most rugged
series of the campaign.
The Medfordites go against
the skyscraper Klamath Falls
Pelicans, who are not only
the favorites to repeat as SO
champions but are regarded
as one of the top-ranking
quints in Oregon. And on top
of that the Tornado encoun
ters Klamath on its home
floor, always an ambitious as
signment. Jim Crow, sports editor of
the Klamath Falls Herald and
News, has dug into the past
and has come up with the in
formation that the tradition
al maplecourt rivalry between
the Pels and Tornado will be
staged for the 101st time this
evening. And his figures in
dicate that the Pels on the
week end have in mind to
pull even with Medford in the
longtime competition. Of the
100 games contested the Tor
nado has won 51 and Klamath
Falls 49,
First Game in 1910
Klamath won the first, 50th
and 100th hoop frays between
the two schools. First basket
ball conflict between the two
was on Jan. 17, 1910with the
Pelicans winning 30 to 19
Medford was the first prep
cage foe for Klamath outside
the Klamath basin
Medford has had a giant-
killer role before in facing
tall Klamath Falls clubs and
its horjes for this week end
are bolstered by the fact that
one of its cripples has recov
ered sufficiently to start and
that another likely will be
used some of the time
Coach Frank Roelandt like
ly will have Jerry Anderson,
Tom Hamlin, Lowell Dean,
Bilbee Lane and Don Peek in
the starting Tornado unit. An
derson is recuperating from
an inflamed foot tendon. How
ever, he should be ready to

Rosi Picked
Over Busso
New York OP Light
weight contender Paolo Rosi
is an 8-5 favorite to beat
Johnny Busso when they
finally meet tonight, after
four postponements since last
March.
Their 10-rounder at Madi
son Square Garden will be
televised and broadcast na
tionally by NBC at 7 p.m.
(PST).
Although ailments and in
juries caused four delays,
their fight should be exciting
because each is an able boxer-puncher,.
Baldish Rosi, for
merly of Italy and now of
New York, is rated fifth
among 135-pound contenders.
New Yorker Busso is ranked
10th.
Rosi, 29, is rated the hard
er puncher. Whether that's
true will be demonstrated to
night. He is an aggressive, up
right boxer with a good left
jab and left hook and with
a stunning straight right.
Rangy Busso, 23, prefers
to counter-punch at long
range. But he also is a good
banger at close quarters to
the body, when he comes in
with his bob-weave.
Rosi's 26-4-1 records in
cludes 11 knockouts. He was
stopped twice on cuts. Busso's
31-5-1 list includes 14 kayoes.
He was stopped once, also on
cuts.

Los Angeles ,; (W Cali
fornia, UCLA and USC, three
teams on record as planning
to withdraw from the Pacific
Coast conference, were in
cluded today in PCC football
schedules for 1961-62.
PCC Commissioner Victor
O. Schmidt said the schedules,
made public Wednesday, were
"unanimously" drawn by the
athletic directors at a special
meeting in San Francisco in
mid-December. The schedules
were subsequently approved
by the faculty athletic repre
sentatives by mail vote, he
said.
The schedules showed the
three dissident PCC teams
playing four conference
games each during the two
seasons, two less than is nec
essary to qualify for the con
ference championship and the
right to play in the Rose
Bowl. Other members were
scheduled for full slates.
Basic Slates
Schmidt said the schedules,
as announced. consuiuiea
only a basic schedule and ad
ditional games were expected
to be added through addition
al negotiations between
schools.
California, UCLA and USC
will play a roundup between
themselves, plus two addi
tional games, an indication
that they play to go through
with plans for withdrawal
from the conference.
The three did not schedule
Oregon, Oregon State or
Washington State.
Permission for USC to pull
out of the PCC at the end of
the present school year, early
in the summer of 1958, was
voted earlier this year by the
university's board of trustees.
The University of California
board of regents gave permis
sion to California and UCLA
to quit the conference at the
end of the 1959 school year.

Casanova said "I always
thought we could win, and
the players did too, until the
final gun."
Good To Be Back
"It's good to be back and

On Coliseum
Los Angeles (IP) The
Dodgers seemed to be as far
as ever from finding a home
in the Los Angeles Memorial
Coliseum for the 1958 season
today but there was a lot of
argument about it.
The coliseum commission
again deadlocked Thursday
on a proposition which would
have opened the big stadium
to the Dodgers as a temporary
home until they can build a
baseball home.
And something new was
added.
Jim Smith, outgoing head
of the commission, Linted Los
Angeles Mayor Morris Poul
son might be more desirous of
seeing the Dodgers play in
Pasadena's Rose Bowl than
the Coliseum.
"I would be interested in
knowing," Smith said in a
prepared statement, "and I
believe it might help in clear
ing up some phases of this
situation, whether Mayor
Poulson is more desirous of
having the Dodgers play in
Pasadena in the Rose Bowl
than in the Los Angeles Me
morial Coliseum."
