TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Raiders Complete Conference Chase With Nod Over OTI Ashland A brace of free i knotted the ruckus and Mc- tosses by Ron Maurer and a singleton by Jim McAbee in the last IV2 minutes of a see- saw second half provided the margin of triumph here last night as the Southern Oregon college basketball aggrega tion nosed Oregon Technical institute 47 to 44 in an Oregon Collegiate conference engage ment. The victory marked the end of conference play for the Red Raiders of the Rogue but kept their slender hopes still burning for a co-championship. Southern Oregon tuck ed away its OCC slate with 12-4 mark. OTI is 12-2 with cellarite Oregon college yet to face this week end. Last night's nod gave the Raiders an even break in their loop encounters with the Owls. Each quintet won the two scraps on its home maple boards. Plays Nazaren SOC winds up its regular season schedule here on Fri day and Saturday nights as host to Northwest Nazarene. Then there'll be participation in the district tourney of the National Association Intercol leziate Athletics. The Red Raiders, who trail ed much of the first half and 21 to 18 at the end of it, turn ed in some terrific fighting for the ball to have backboard control in the second half. And they also took advantage of more free throw opportun ities to gain their victory. Lead switched hands five times and there were an equal number of ties over the sec ond 20-minute session of the fracas. Final deadlock came with slightly more than two minutes to play when Charlie Wilson scored on a fast break for the Owls to make it 44-all. With 1 minutes 24 seconds left Maurer collected his two, free heaves on a personal whistled against Dell Francis. At 1:10 to go McAbee dropped in one of two gift tries on a foul tooted on Wilson. Ashlanders Hang On In the closing seconds OTI lost the b all on a muffed pass back over the mid-court line and SOC used keep away tactics until Bill Hollings worth attempted a field shot. The try was blocked but the Raiders gained possession sec onds later under the Oregon Tech hoop and hung on until the buzzer sounded. A seven-point surge at the tart of the second half put Southern Oregon on top 25 to 21. It was the Raiders' first time in front in the game. Mc Abee put in a tip in and Hol lingsworth two fast break buckets and a 'free shot in the rally. The Owls caught up on buckets by John Rhine and John McCutcheon. But SOC went ahead again 29 to 27 on jumpers by Dave D'Olivo and Norm Oliva.

McCutcheon collected ! a tip in for OTI and D'Oliva picked up a free throw for SOC. Rhine canned a long one hander for 39 to 36 OTI spread. Southern Oregon concocted a six-point uprising as D'Olivo put in two charity casts, Ma urer scored on a fast break and Hollingsworth recovered a misthrown Owl pass ' and dumped the ball through the basket. That made the stand ing 42 to 39 with the Raid ers leading. Bogle put a shot in from under the net and then added a free throw to knot the game. Five minutes were left to play. McAbee's long push put the count at 44 to 42 for the Ashlanders. Then, after a couple of missed OTI free chances'Wilson tied the fray with his field goal. Five-Tally Gap Except for 10 each and 12 each deadlocks, the Owls were on top through the first half. Their widest bulge was five points at 19 to 14. Biggest gaps for the Raiders were the four-point 25 to 21 and 29 to 25 gaps. Southern Oregon led in re bounding for the night 37 to 25 with D'Olivo making 11 re trieves, McAbee nine and Oliva eight. Williams and Bogle had eight apiece for OTI. Oregon Tech had 20 to 17 edge in field goals but SOC put in 13 to 22 free tries to four of 11 by the Owls.

Facts Produced By Finless Fish Portland Fin - clipped steelhead swimming home to the tributaries of the Alsea river are producing new facts about game commission hatch ery production. The finless fighters have been taken with regularity in the Alsea sys tem since mid-December. Most of the marked fish are survivors of a plant of 36,000 yearlings released in May of 1956 from the Alsea hatchery. The fin marking ex periment is designed to tell workers of the Oregon Co operative Wildlife Research unit just when young steel head should be released to provide the greatest return to the angler. By contacting anglers along the river, a ratio of marked to unmarked steelhead in the creel pro vides researchers with a clue to the extent hatchery plants contribute to the fishery Marked steelhead are read ily identified. If your catch has both ventral (belly) fins and the small (adipose) fin on the back near the tail missing, the fish is a hatch ery plant. A call or card to the Research Unit at Oregon State college will contribute much to the findings. In 1956 and 1957, some 76,000 yearling steelhead were released in the Alsea river. These fish ranged in size from 6 to 8 inches in length. The Alsea river will be open to steelhead angling until the end of March. The state of New York col lects more than 52 million re venue a week in state-imposed gasoline taxes.

OPI Middleweight Ralph (Tiger) Jones asked today for a match with any of the 160-pound contenders because of his comeback victory over Kid Gavilan Wednesday night in the first fight ever televised from a hotel. Unmindful of the plush sur roundings of the Club Siam in the brand new Carillon Hotel, Jones of St. Albans, N.Y., shuffled forward in every round and won an avenging split decision over the Cuban, which broke his own losing streak at four straight. Gavilan, former w e lter weight champion, was favored at 8-5 in Wednesday's 10 rounder. Hooking Aiiact But, fighting there in the Siam Club where the car pets seemed mattress soft and the life-sized statues of Siam ese dancing girls stood un blinking during the fray Jones' presistent hooking at tack gained the verdict. There were no knockdowns. Referee Billy Regan favor ed the Tiger, 97-96, as did Judge Carl Gardner, 97-95. But Judge Fred Aaronson had Gavilan in front, 97-94, be cause of his left hooks, straight rights and right "bo lo" uppercuts. The United Press favored Gavilan, 96-95. It was Gavilan's 29th defeat in 140 bouts, and Jones45th victory in 70. McGinty Pushes Pistol Leaders Hugh McGinty was press ing the perennial leads in the pistol shoot last night and barely failed to lead the pack by few points in slow fire.

National Slates 274 Night Tiffs Cincinnati HP After one false start, the National league announced its official 1958 schedule today, including Los Angeles and San Francisco for the first time in history and an all-time record total of 274 night games. National league officials originally had planned to an nounce their schedule on Jan. 24, but they had to go to work and draw up a new one when several of the Dodger dates conflicted with other events previously slated for their Memorial Coliseum ball park in Los Angeles. The Dodgers ironed out their difficulties by schedul ing four twi-night doublehead ers at home. Los Angeles opens the sea son at San Francisco on April 15 and after a three-game series, the Giants travel south to Los Angeles for another three-game series with the Dodgers there beginning April 18. All National league clubs will appear on the West Coast by April 29 with the excep tion of the world champion Milwaukee Braves and Cin cinnati Redlegs, who make their first official visit to California on June 3. Mil waukee, Cincinnati, Pitts burgh and Philadelphia now constitute the Eastern Divis ion of the league. This year's night game total represents an increase of 13 over the 261 scheduled last year, which was the previous National league high. In addition to the Giants Dodgers inaugural on April 15, other opening day pair ings call for Philadelphia at Cincinnati; Pittsburgh at Mil waukee, and Chicago at St. Louis in a night game. Portland Bills Pro Grid Clubs Portland OP) Promoter Harry Glickman announced Wednesday that he has signed the San Francisco Forty-Nin-ers and the Washington Red skins for a professional foot ball game here this summer. Glickman . said the two teams would meet in Multno mah stadium on Saturday night, Aug. 23. It will be the first appearance in Portland of the Redskins. - Fawn Survival Generally Improved Over Last Year Portland An over-all drop in the buck-doe ratio on the mule deer ranges, an increase in the buck-doe ratios among the blacktail herds, and a gen eral improvement in fawn sur vival over last year were noted this :f all and winter by game commission biologists who recently completed their herd composition studies to determine sex and age of Oregon's deer herds. On the eastern Oregon mule deer ranges, biologists classi fied one buck for every four does observed and four fawns for every five does observed. The blacktail buck-doe ratios were considerably higher with three bucks for every eight does. Fawn rations were lo.w er than in eastern Oregon with two fawns classified for each three does. A 1:4 buck ratio and 4:5 fawn ratio are considered representative of a healthy hard. ' In their travels through the big game ranges, biologists classified more than 19,000 animals of which 2,538, were bucks, 9,298 were does, and 7,195 were fawns, Another several thousand animals were observed but went un classified because identifica tion was not possible. Blacktail deer west of the Cascades and in Hood River, Wasco, and Klamath counties stood at 36 bucks per 100 does as compared to 33 per 100 does last year. The ratio of butks per 100 does is 9 per cent higher than a year ago. Blacktail fawn ratios also show an improvement over last year. The over-all aver age was 67 fawns per 100 does as compared to 57 last. year. The average increase is sur vival is 18 per cent higher than a year ago. Improved fawn survival was evident on all blacktail ranges and espec ially evident in . Wasco and Hood River counties. Fawn survival in Hood River coun ty was 54 fawns per 100 does ENTAILS LAMPORTS A BASKETBALL WEDNESDAY COLLEGE GAMES By United Press (East) Army 100 Williams 81 La Salle 86 Scranton 60 Bucknell 63 Penn State 56 Pittsburgh 73 Carnegie Tech 54 Villanova 73 Pennsylvania 61 Niagara 86 Quantico Marines 66 Iona 79 Seton Hall 59 Steubenville 65 St. Fran.

Talent plays at Jacksonville next Tuesday in the loop con cluder and on March 6 the Bulldogs will begin the play off with the Klamath county winner for the District 5B crown. League honors were clinched several games back by Talent. Defenses Help Temple, Duke By TIM MORIARTY If Temple and Duke wind up as opponents in the NCAA basketball tournament next month and it could happen in the Eastern regionals the sparks should fly. Both teams know how to score and they also know how to throw a headlock on the opposition. The Blue Devils used a zone defense when they got into trouble against Navy on Wednesday at Annapolis and rallied in the second half to down the Middies, 77-63, for their 10th straight victory. Temple also had to resort to some slick defensive man euvers against Wake Forest, "freezing" the ball for most of the final five minutes in turning back the Deacons, 61-49. It was the sixth-ranked Owls' 18th straight victory. compared to a low of 28 to 100 last year. In Wasco coun ty the count stood at 62 fawns per 100 does compared to only 32 per 100 does 'a year ago. On 56 mule deer ranges the average of 25 bucks per 100 does indicates a 22 per cent decrease from the 1957 figure of 32 per ''00 does. Biologists reckoned that favorable hunt ing conditions last fall and the accessibility of bucks at the end of the general season may account forrthe low ratios. The ratio of 79 fawns per 100 does on the mule deer ranges indicates a substantial increase in the fawn survival from 1957 when only 68 fawns per 100 does were tal lied. Improved fawn survival is apparent in all regions and particularly in central Oregon where the ratio increased from 59 fawns per 100 does in 1957 to 80 fawns per 100 does this year. On several of the critical winter ranges, measures of herd composition still indi cated low fawn survival. This was particularly evident on such ranges as Murderers creek, Northside John Day, North Fork John Day and the Izee and Day basins. On most of the better ranges fawn pro duction was considerably higher than a year ago. Game agents report that so far this year mild weather has favored deer. Most herds re main widely scattered and at higher than normal eleva tions. Food also has been available in quality and quan tity on most ranges, and deer are going into the critical part of the winter with a good re- serve of fat. Barring severe winter conditions the nexti two months, herds should pull through with only a minimum of winter loss. Game biologists are now concentrating their efforts on population trend counts and winter mortality studies which will run through to late March or early April. OSC Takes Road Trip Corvallis (IP) Oregon State carried its championship basketball hopes to the south today. Coach Slats Gill's Beavers, who are neck-and-neck with UCLA and California in a race for the PCC flag, flew out of Portland to meet Southern California t Friday night and UCLA Saturday afternoon.

Yardley Has Eye On Score Mark By UNITED PRESS George Yardley of Detroit needs only 217 points in the Pistons' nine remaining games to' become the National Bas ketball association's greatest single season scorer.

BLENDED WHISKEY. 86 PROOF. 65 Tornado, Grizzlies Await Cage Series Lowell Dean, sophomore who is leading the Medford high basketball contingent in scoring and rebounding, may be able to see duty this Sat urday against the Ashland Grizzlies but it's doubtful that he'll be in action against the Lithia city five on Friday, it was reported this morning. Medford and Ashland, each hopeful of second place in the final Southern Oregon confer ence standings, and with it a berth in the A-l state tour ney, try to keep their ambi tions alive with Friday con tention at Hedrick gym here and Saturday rivalry on the Grizzly floor. Dean has been on the side lines with a foot infection. If he does get into service it will be without practice at all Gary Fires Over Them Moscow, Idaho (IP) Gary Simmons, a "little" man who leads the Pacific Coast Con ference scoring race, has a simple method of handling the skyscraper hoopsters who dominate the game of basket ball. "Just shoot over 'em," says the relatively small 5 feet 11 inch guard and captain of the University of Idaho Vandals. Simmons proves his theory merely by pointing to his rec ord. He has averaged nearly 23 points per game in the PCC, which this season is somewhat defense-minded. He already has shatteredthe for mer school single-season scor ing record of 41 points, and he is a cinch to break the school's three-year scoring mark of 978. To compensate for his lack of height, Simmon has devel oped a twisting, weaving style of dribbling that gets him away from the defense and puts him in Tange for his one handed jump shot. His favor ite spot is outside the key, and on a good night he can just about make the defense men break down and cry. Look . . .

Hamlin Back Coach Frank Roelandt has indicated a possible starting lineup of Ron Peery, Larry Brown, Don Peek, Tom Ham lin and Jerry Anderson. Ham lin missed drill Tuesday be cause of a touch of flu. He was out for Wednesday's workout but his practicing was limited. The Tornado otherwise went through a rather rugged drill yesterday. This after noon's practice was to be a bit heavier than the usual Thursday activity. For Ashland Coach Earl Iba is expected to have Al bert Hartwell, Scott Peterson, Jack Tobiasson and Bill Maurer in the line-up as usual. It'll be a choice between Bob Johnson and Kip Lombard for the fifth position. Johnson would give the Ashlanders more backboard strength but Lombard works the Grizzly offensive pattern better. Game times are 8:15 p.m. each day with junior varsity openers at 6:30 p.m. Grants Pass is at Klamath Falls for the other conference series this week end. Crater has a bye.
