UCLA, which didn't look
like a contender earlier this
season, led the Pacific Coast
Conference basketball race by
a half-game today and that's
just the way things must
stand until Feb. 6 when the
lull for midterm exams ends.
The Bruins, losers in two of
their first three PCC tilts this
year, won their fourth in a
row Saturday by nipping
Southern California, 65-63.
The damage was done by
Walt Torrence, who paced
UCLA with 20 points and
meshed the winning basket
with 30 seconds to play after
picking off a pass from the
Trojans' Jim White.
Five Over USC
The victory followed Fri
day's 57-53 triumph over USC
and gave the Bruins five in a
row over the cross-town ri
vals. California, a three - point
loser Friday in Stanford's
small gym, got hunk on the
Indians Saturday at Berkeley
by thrashing them, 67-46.
Huskies Bark
Washington began to live
up to its pre-season promise
by whacking Oregon State,
69-59.
This followed i 62-57 win
over Oregon on Friday.
Idaho shoved Washington
State deeper into the base
ment by coming from behind
to defeat the Cougars, 65-55.

Ashland-Crater high wrote
up its second Southern Ore
gon conference basketball de
cision of 1959 here Saturday
night but it was a close, call.
The Comets of Central Point
held a 49 to 47 edge over
the Ashland Grizzlies at the
final buzzer after the victory
starved Bruins had come to
within a point of overtaking
them in the concluding min
utes. It- was the eleventh loss
against no victories for the
Grizzlies this season and their
fifth setback in the league.
Second half script Satur
day just about followed the
pattern of the league opener
battle between the two
schools which Crater also
won by two points. The Com
ets alternately built up good
spreads then lost them. They
led by 11 points early in the
third stanza and by nine near
the start of the third quarter,
And in the end it was the
overall margin in free tosses
that made the difference in
the scoring totals.
Pirates
hurt, why, we can be the
team to beat.
That's a large order, and no
one likes to get cocky in a
league which can beat your
brains out if you slip only a
little bit, but basically, we're
sound. We have good pitching
and adequate defense. We
have good team speed. With
a little help in the two de
partments I noted, we can
improve.
Good Mound Staff
When you improve from
second place, what's left but
first place?
The backbone of the 1959
Pirates will be the 1958 Pi
rates who played .632 ball
coming from seventh place to
second by winning 48 and
losing 28 in the last half of
the season. I shudder, how
ever, to recall that Milwaukee
played .642 ball at the same
time!
For pitchers, we have Bob
Friend, a 22-game winner last
year, the league's leading
righthander and the winning
est Pirate in 30 years and
rookie George Witt who
couldn't get anyone out at
the start of the year - and
then came back for a 9-2 rec
ord and a 1.61 earned run
average. Vera Law won 14,
Curt Eaydon had an 8-4 first
year record. Ronnie Kline
should have won at least 16,
instead of the 13 he did win.
Roy Face saved 26 games -tops
in the majors in 1958.
I have a big hope that

Strong Infield
Ted Kluszewskl, slugging
Dick Stuart and Rocky Nel
son give us plenty of offense
at first base - and BUI Maz
eroski and Dick Groat give
us all we need at second and
short. It's often said-- and
not by me alone - these two
do more to wm a ball game
both offensively and defen
sively than any other com
bination in the league.

Bob Skinner in left is cap
able of leading the league m
hitting one of these days -Billy
Virdon in center is rated
by most managers as second
only to Willie Mays in the
field and Roberto Clemente
is a power guy to have
around.
Rookies Coming Up
We won't have Clemente
until a couple of weeks after
the season opens. He went in
to the Marines last October!
and is due back April 4. It
nrobably will take a week or
two for him to come aronud.
But, we have Jim McDaniel,
who hit better tnan 3D nome
runs at Salt Lake last year,
coming up.
We're digging into the
I minors hunting that left
handed starter who can win.
Bob Johnson was the take
charge guy in the final rally
which almost caught the Com
ets. After going without
field bucket for Ashland for
three quarters, he hit three
in a- row which shrunk a Cra-
ter gap of 46 to 37 down to
46 to 43. He swished on a
driver, a swing across the
key hole and on a jump from
the side of the slot. Four and
one-fourth minutes were left
to play after this splurge.
The teams went scoreless
for the next two minutes then
Bob Hardy potted a mid-
range jumper for Ashland
and the Comet lead was only
46 to 45. With less than two
minutes to play Dennis Pfaff
connected for Crater on a
risky long pusher and seconds
later Wayne Allen added a
gifter for 49 to 45 against the
pressing Grizzlies.
With less than a minute to
play Clark Smith got a free
shot chance on a charging
foul. "He added two points
for the Grizzlies. With a half-
minute left Crater lost the
ball on steps under the bask
et. Steve Gray tried a long
shot for Ashland but it mis
fired and Wayne Allen got
the ball on the rebound. The
Comets held on for the final
20 seconds.
Take Lead in Second
Crater took permanent
lead in the fracas when Bill
White hit for 14 to 13 from
under the hoop on a drive
and hook. This was IVi min
utes into the second quarter
The Comets widened to 19 to
14, to 23 to 16. Ashland pulled
up to 23 to 22 and Jim Bjork
paced efforts of the Grizzlies.
Then Chuck Turner put in
a free shot for Crater and
Pfaff and Wayne Allen
pumped in first break buck
ets. Bill White contributed a
pair of gifters for 30 to 22
at halftime.
Loyal Higinbotham's free
point and Bill White's push
made it 33 to 22 for Crater
at the start of the second
quarter but Bjork's and Pete
Stemple's longie's, Smith's
two free heaves and long
push by Stemple made it 33
to 30.
41-37 After 3rd Quarter
Turner of Crater and
Hardy of Ashland traded field
goals. Turner and Wayne Al
len got drivers for 39 to 37.
Doug Forrest's rebounder and
Smith's hook, hacked it to
39 to 36. Bill White got a
brace of free shots for the
Comets and Johnson put in
one for Ashland for 41 to 37
at the three-fourth's pause.
John Burner flipped in
shots from the field and free
line and Higinbotham hit a
jump for the 46 to 37 margin.
Crater won out on its 19 to
11 advantage in free points,
getting 14 gifters in the first
half. Ashland had the most
field goals 18 to 15. Pfaff was
the game's high point totaler
with 13 and White had 11
Bjork hit 12 for Ashland,
Johnson 11 and Smith 10.
Rebounding was almost
even with Ashland showing
a 31 to 28 margin. White had
nine retrieves for Crater and
Smith eight for Ashland.
Jayvee Thriller
Crater had a 12 to 7 lead
after one .quarter of the
game, twice tying tne game
after Ashland took a 3 to 0
jump and then going ahead
at 8 to 7. A goal by Bjork
and two by Smith put Ash
land ahead for the last time
at 13 to 12.
Crater came from six points
back with a press in the last
quarter to nose out Ashland
36 to 35 in the junior varsity
preliminary. With two min
utes left Denny . Edwards
goaled off an out-of-bounds
play and then put in a free
shot to tie up the game at 34
all. Bob Voris plunked an
Ashland gifter with just over
a minute to go. Seconds later
Dave Foote put in the win
ning bucket for Crater on a
fast break, getting an assist
from Bill Anhorn. It was
Foote's only score of the
game. Score was 12-each at
the half.
Edwards led scoring with
17 points while Phil Tucker
and Voris each had 10 for
Ashland.
