was made at the gift line
where the Pels took advan
tage of 25 Medford personal
infractions for 30 successful
shots in 38 attempts. The Tor

in 23 tries.
Action was fast-paced and
keyed-up throughout the 32
minutes of playing time and
was nip and tuck and see-saw
until Klamath went ahead to
stay. Score was tied on 10 oc
casions "and there were six
lead exchanges. The Pelicans

A Dean tip in put the Tor
nado in front 25 to 23 midway
in the second chukker after
Harvey's bucket on Ander

Medford kept ahead until Pe
tersen knotted the scrap with
a pair of free counters with
eight seconds remaining in
the half.
Klamath jumped in front
at the start of the second half
on Dunson's fast break goal
and his free shot for 33 to 30.
After fielders by Harvey had
tied the mix 'three times at
34, 36 and 38, Koch put Med
ford in the lead with a re
bounder. Single points by
Harvey and Anderson then
brought the score to its 42 to
38 situation but a long shot
by Drace, a fast breaker by
DeLap and a DeLap free
toss made it 43 to 42 for KF.
The Black Tornadoes play
ed fine ball in stretches but
had "lost ball" woes and the
Klamathites were alert to
take advantage of Medford
lapses. Fouls and Pel free
shots played the major part
in Medford's undoing and
were particularly damaging
in the final moments when
the Tornado cagers were
pressmg to come from behind.
Tornadoes were forcing their
shots on a number of scoring
chances in the final quarter
Medford won the junior
varsity encounter 44 to 28,
pulling away after a 13-all
halftime tie. Dick Ragsdale of
the Tornado paced scoring

Pro Tennis
Pact Inked
By Cooper
Sydney, Australia - (DPD -Australia's
Ashley Cooper
bolted the amateur tennis
ranks today in a move that
gives pro king Pancho Gon
zales a glamorous hew oppon
ent and probably assures a
United States victory in the
next Davis Cup challenge
round.
United States promoter
Jack Kramer announced that
the 22-year-old Wimbledon
and U. S. and Australian na
tional champion has agreed to
a three-year contract which
should earn him about $140,-
000.
Cooper, considered the
smoothest layer ever de
veloped in Australia, is sched
uled to make his pro debut
Tuesday night against Ecua
dor's Pancho Segura in the
Jack Crawfard Testimonial
tournament.
Cooper's move, shortly after
Davis Cup teammate Mai An
derson also turned pro, breath
new life into Kramer's 1959
professional plans but was a
tremendous . blow to Aus
tralia's chances of regaining
the Davis Cup fromhe United
States this year - and perhaps
for several years.
With Cooper and Anderson
out of the picture, the United
States' controversial Peruvian
star, Alex Olmedo, stands
practically unchallenged as
the world's No. 1 amateur.

No Place
For Auburn
Five To Go
By NORMAN MILLER
United Press International
Auburn's crack basketball
team owns the nation's long
est college winning streak,
an honored TJlace in the too
10, and a good chance to
break Kentucky's monopoly
of the Southeastern confer
ence championship.
But just as in football. Au
burn has no place to go if it
keeps winning.
Even if Coach Joel Eaves'
Tigers win the SEC title, the
same recruiting penalties that
ruled out a football bowl
berth would prevent them
from playing in the NCAA
basketball tournament, where
they might prove their claim
to national honors.
With an 8-0 record for this
season, Auburn seeks its 20th
straight triumph tonight at
home against Mississippi. The
Tigers were the last team to
beat Kentucky, winning 64
63 last Feb. 24. They meet
this season at Lexington, Ky.,
Feb. 21.
Cincinnati Faces Bradley
Cincinnati, which held the
No. 1 national rating last
week before losing twice in
the Dixie Classic at Raleigh,
N. C, returns to the wars to
play Bradley in the leading
game on tonight's schedule.
The slate also includes two
key Big Teh conference games
Michigan State at Iowa .and
Northwestern at Michigan; an
intersectional clash which
finds St. Louis at Pittsburgh,
and Furman at West Virginia.
Kentucky, rated No. 2 last
week by the United Press In
ternational Board of Coaches,
ran its season record to 11-0
and its holdover streak to
16 straight triumphs by beat
ing Georgia Tech, 72-62, last
Saturday. Coach Adolph
Rupp's defending NCAA
champions play two SEC road
games this week, against Van
derbilt Tuesday night and
against Louisiana State Sat
urday. Auburn, ranked No. 10 last
week, scored its 19th straight
victory by beating Mississip
pi State, 97-66. The Tigers
held Bailey Howell to 19
points after the maroons' star
had averaged around 30
points per game. The defeat
was the first in nine games
for Mississippi State.
Form generally held up in
last Saturday's games. Four
teen of the 20 top-ranked
teams played and only three
lost. The victims, in addition
to Mississippi State, were
Purdue and California. Pur
due, 11th last week, lost at
home to surprising Michigan
82-75; California was upset
by Oregon, 59-57.
