    NiH Cagers
Girding for
SE Quintet
Medford high's hoop squad
Is working this week to
bolster Its offense with better
ball-handling and is priming
its defense in an effort to
hold down All-Stater Charlie
Warren of the South Eugene
aggregation.
Tornado cagers take on the
Axemen In Medford on Fri
day and Saturday evenings.
They will attempt to hand
South Eugene its first loss
and have a man-sized chore.
The Axemen whipped Al
bany last night for their
eighth straight triumph.
4 Medford Coach Frank Roe
windt said that he has brought
John Frohnmayer up from
the j a y v e e s this week.
Whether Frohnmayer will go
against the Axemen and, if
so, how much he'll play, are
questions still to be answered.
Roelandt's aim is to see if
the hoopman will help on de
fense and on rebound re
trieving. Still Crippled
Don Bowling, who frac
tured a foot bone,, and Jerry
Anderson, who has been
bothered by an inflamed ten
don, are still considered on
the Tornado crippled list, al
though both played at Klam
ath Falls last week end. They
have trouble jumping. Bowl
ing is in better shape and has
been scrimmaging this week
while Anderson hasn't.
Ron Peery and Bowling
have been drilling this week
at the forward slot where
Anderson has been starting.
Guard Bilbee Lane missed
practice yesterday because of
illness but is expected to be
back and ready for the week
end series.

Dons Tame
Santa Clara
In Breeze
By UNITED PRESS
The University of San Fran
cisco Dons, ranked fourth
among the nation's college
basketball teams, have proved
that the Spanish dons of early
California, aren't the only
ones noted for their horse
manship. The high-kicking Broncos
of Santa Clara galloped into
San Francisco's Cow palace
Tuesday night looking for
trouble, and while 10,000
fans watched in astonishment
the Dons transformed them
to Shetland ponies.
USF had the reputation but
the Broncos had shown so
much spunk that the contest
was billed as the gauge of
power in the West Coast Ath
letic conference.
Starters Lounge
However, the gauge fell
apart as the Dons breezed to
a 65-42 victory, although the
entire first string was loung
ing on the bench in the final
minutes.
In other games, St. Mary's
kept pace with the Dons by
swamping San Jose State, 72-
53, and College of Pacific an
nihilated Chico State, 72-35,
In a non-conference game.
The Broncs couldn't get the
bit in their teeth against the
Dons. They could only must
er 12 field goals in 65 at
tempts for a dismal 18.5 per
cent shooting average.
Gene Brown led the scor
ing for USF with 15 points,
while Jerry Basich and Jim
Russi were high for the losers
with eight each. The victory
was the 11th straight for the
Dons and gave them a 2-0
conference record. It was the
first conference game for San
ta Clara and its third loss in
nine games.
DOUBLE - STRETCH California's George Sterline (35)
and Temple's Jay Norman (24) strain for rebound during
battle for the Holiday Festival basketball championship at
Madison Square Garden in New York. Other players are
California's Bob Dalton (34) and Temple's Bill Kennedy (4)
and Guy Rodgers (5). Temple won festival crown, 69-57.
Cavemen Thump Tornado
In WrestHnq Encounter
A strong Grants Pass high
wrestling squad yielded only
the two hefty bouts to Med
ford in a card here last night.
The Cavemen won over the
Black Tornado by a score of
45 to 6.
Medford's lone winners in
the county matches were Gary
Heath over Reed Dougherity
in the 191-pound class and
Tom Morris over Henry Cole
in the unlimited class. There
were 13 tussles included in
the scoring. GP took 16 of the
six exhibitions.
The Tornado runs into
tough competition again on
Friday, going to Klamath
Falls.
Snow Suils Most
Important Attire
Amherst, Mass. Oil Snow
suits are the most important
part of children's cold weath
er wardrobes, says Virginia
Davis, clothing specialist of
the University of Massachu
sets Extension Service.
Two-piece suits with an ex
tra pair of pants are the best
bet for older children. The
single-piece snow suit is bet
ter for toddlers, she said.
Two-piece suits are adapta
ble for wear without jackets
in less severe weather. The
extra pair of pants is neces
sary because the lower half
of a snow suit gets the most
wear.
The two-piece outfit also
allows for more growth, with
less alteration demands from
mother, Miss Davis said. Ad
justable suspenders keep
pants at desired lengths;
knitted wrist and calf cuffs
keep out the cold and mois
ture. Miss Davis noted that mod
ern manufacturing methods
have brought lighter-weight
wools with ample warmth.
Synthetics, such as nylon and
orlon, and synthetics mixed
with wool speed up the dry
ing rate.

At Portland Robbed
Portland P) Police to
day searched for a tall, slim
bandit who held up the 6th
and Morrison st. branch of
the First National Bank in
downtown Portland Tuesday
afternoon and escaped with

bills. ,
It was the third time with

branch has been robbed.
Teller Arlene Ellefson told
police the bandit handed her
a note which read, "I have a
gun in my belt and Twill use
it if I have to. Give me $100
and $50 bills. Be careful until
I am outside." She said she
asked the holdup man, "Are
you sure you want to go
through with this?" The ban
dit tolcUher, "I mean it."
The man .was described as
about 35 years old, "English
looking," manicured and neat.
He wore a brown suit and a
gray hat.

$3500 from the same branch

captured the same day.
Ben-Gurion Heads
New Government
Jerusalem, Israel (IP!
Prime Minister David Ben
Gurion, who resigned last
Tuesday in a quarrel with
members of his five-party
coalition, today took charge
of a new government made
up of the same widely di
vergent parties.
Ben-Gurion won approval
of his new Cabinet by a 77
33 vote in Parliament Tues
day night. But he failed to
win full support from his
coalition's two leftist mem
bers, the Ahdut Avoda and
Mapam parties.
The opposition of these two
parties led to the resignation
of his previous government.
They made public Ben-Gur-ion's
secret plan to send ' an
emissary to West Germany to
negotiate arms purchases.

Redwood City, Calif. (IP)
Attorneys for the; prosecution
and defense hoped to com
plete selection of a jury today
to hear the murder trial of
Suzanne Elaine Soule.
Miss Soule, a 20-year-old
typist from Freeport, N.Y., is
accused of bludgeoning and
stabbing to death her pretty
socialite roommate, Catherine
Marie Elvins, 19, last July in
their Burlingame apartment.
Pulling at her powder blue
sweater from time to time,
Miss Soule sat stoically
throughout Tuesday's session
as attorneys droned question
after question to prospective
jurors.
However, she displayed
more interest in the proceed
ings than on Monday. She
glanced occasionally at notes
made by her attorneys and
turned one or twice to gaze at
the veniremen.
Now and again her red
rimmed eyes filled with tears
and she stared hard at the
ceiling to keep from giving
way to an emotional outburst.
District Attorney Keith
Sorenson said he will call as
one of his first prosecution
witnesses John R. Ward, Miss
Soule's brither-in-law. He will
presumably tell how she burst
into his apartment last July
26 and announced she had
slain Miss Elvins.
Victim's Parents arrive
Sorenson said that Miss El
vins' parents, Dr. and Mrs.
Richard Elvins of Seattle,
Wash., will be here for the
duration of the trial.
Sorenson made it clear he
will demand a first degree
murder conviction and the
death penalty. Miss Soule has
pleaded not guilty and not
guilty by reason of insanity.
Defense attorneys G.Brooks
Ice and John A. Cost indi
cated they will show that the
dead girl had some "unpleas
ant" personality traits.
In questioning one prospec
tive juror, Cost said Miss El
vins had "personal attributes
that perhaps were not the
most desirable."
"The defense will explore
these unpleasant traits and I
don't want you to think we
are doing it just to blacken
the name of the dead" he
said. "We must, present the
facts to you as we know
them."
Unpleasant Traits
Among these traits, Cost
suggested, were Miss Elvins'
habit of "always bragging
about her money and her col
lege education," and her
"grating voice."
Cost indicated that Miss
Soule will take the stand in
her own defense. Her moth
er, Mrs. Frank Soule of Free
port, is also expected to tes
tify. She is expected to say that
her daughter once suffered a
head injury in an auto acci
dent and that she impulsive
ly moved away from home
early last year and moved to
California.
By the time court ad
journed Tuesday, attorneys
had examined 39 persons in
their effort to agree on a jury
of 12 and two alternates. The
trial is expected - to last a
month.
New Income Tax
Book Is Available
Portland Sixteen more
pages have been added to the

computations should be made.
