EIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Tornado Encounters Grizzlies
On Hedrick Floor This Evening
Ashland high Grizzlies try
to make it four straight over
the Black Tornado for the
season and Medford cagers
fights to even the score for
the two previous setbacks
when the Southern Oregon
conference adversaries mix it
tonight at the Hedrick gym
here and Saturday at Ashland.
In the January scuffles, the
Grizzlies tipped the Medford
ltes by three point margins.
On the basis of those close
games and on other season
performances, this week end's
scrapes could be regarded
toss-ups.
However, the Tornado
squad won't be up to its
strength of the earlier games
and some of the hoopsters
who haven't regular action
this season will be called upon
for heavier service. Coach
Frank Roelandt said tms
morning that "it will help if
they just do what they are
capable of doing.
Each Needs Sweep
He may call upon Ron
Peerv. Larrv Brown, Don
Peek. Jerrv Anderson and
Tom Hamlin for starting as
signments. Hamlin has been
"under the weather" this
week. Availability of Lowell
Dean, leading Tornado scorer,
was still uncertain. He has
foot infection caused by
Mister. Don Bowling, re
servist, has ankle trouble
which hampers his maneuver-
abilty. Bilbee Lane, second
high scorer this season, is no
longer on the squaa.
