By GENE BRYANT
United Press Sports Writer
The bunched-up P a c I f i
Coast conference basketball
standings may be in for some
shuffling tonight if the old
saw that any team is tough to
beat on its home court holds
up.
Southern" California, cur
rently occupying the third
spot a half game behind Cali
fornia and UCLA and second
place Oregon State, will meet
eighth-place Stanford at the
Baseball Golf

Miami flfl Some 20
major league diamond stars
aimed their cold-stiffened
baseball swings at golf balls
today in the second round of
the National Baseball Golf
tournament.
Al Lopez, Chicago White
Sox manager, and Albie Pear
son of the Washington Sen
ators led the pack in quest
of some $5,000 in merchan
dise prizes as match play
began.
Lopez and Pearson fired
identical 81's Thursday to
share medal honors for the
qualifying round. Defending
Champion Alvin Dark of the
St. Louis Cardinals and Dar
ren Johnson of the New York
Yankees tied for second at
82.
Wright Retains
Lead in Scoring
New York IP) Teddy
Wright of South Carolina
State was put out of action by
a clock last week, but he still
holds the lead in basketball's
small-college race.
A game between South
Carolina State and Clark was
ruled "no contest" in Wright's
only appearance of the week
when it was discovered that
the plug had been pulled on
the electric time clock.. As a
result, Wright's scoring aver
age remained at 28.1, a point
better than his closest com
petitor. According to official NCAA
statistics released today, the
six-foot, two-inch junior has
. accounted for 562 points in 20
contests. Bob Shepard of
Clarkson is second in the scor
ing race although playing
only 10 games. His average
is 26.9 with 269 points scored.
The remainder of the top
five are also closely bunched
with Ed Kazakavich oi Scran
ton third at 26.4, Rudy Finder
son of Brandeis 26.1, and
Bennie Swain of Texas South
ern 25.8.

Bid by Pancho
Washington API Just
when Pancho Gonzales
figured he was catching up
with Lew Hoad, the Aussie
turned the tables on him.

victory over Hoad at New

the nation's capital.

Angelas rival, 6-3, 6-2, Thurs
day night to open a 10-7 lead

The veteran Californian
shot a record-breaking 66
Thursday, despite cold tem

over runnerup Betsy Rawls of
Spartanburg, S.C, who finish

Point and Glendale at Phoe
nix and in Medford Prospect
will face St. Mary's.
There is considerable in
terest in both the Crater-GP
and Phoenix-Glendale hassles.
Both the Comets of CP and
the Cavemen of Grants Pass
are in the running for a state
tourney berth from District
6 A-l and championship of
the Rogue league is the issue
at Phoenix. Rogue league vic
tor gets the first round bye
in the District 6 A-2 southern
division tourney.
GP Position Best
The GP team currently is
sitting in the best position
for at least the second berth
from the Southern Oregon
conference in the state meet
bracket It now has second
place with a 4-4 standing.
However, a Friday-Saturday
series sweep by Crater would
put the cellarite Comets into
no less than a knot for second.
The two clubs are at GP on
Saturday. Crater currently is
3-7. A two-game romp by
Grants Pass could fortify the
Cavemen much, particularly
if the prognosticators' script
is followed and Ashland drops
two at Klamath.
Phoenix can wrap up the
Rogue crown with a victory
and will have a chance for a
league tie if it loses. Glen
dale, with a win over Phoe
nix would be in a strong
position for lone spot at the
top, since it is favored over
Illinois Valley in its last regu
lar season mix. '
Use Tribune Want Acfs
The Grants Pass-Crater and
Phoenix-Glendale encounters
are considered toss ups.
Also tonight Eagle Point is
at Illinois Valley, Talent at
Butte Falls and Medford Jun-''

On Saturday Eagle Point
is at Jacksonville and Rogue
