The Tornado's third unit took

quarter.
Quartet Sparks
But Medford did not get
going in the scuffle until
coach Frank Roelandt sub
stituted a quartet of non
starters, Jerry Shults, Ken
Durkee, John Harvey and Cal
vin Dean. They went in 4
minutes into the game and
Medford moved out after they
became warmed to the task.
The Tornado had bulges of
9 to 4, 31 to 8 and 51 to 20
at the quarters.
Jerry Anderson of Medford
and Bob Johnson of Ashland
were high point men with
12 apiece and Ken Durkee
was next with 10 for the Tor
nado. Each team had trouble
breaking through the other's
defenses in the early portion
and no field goal was tallied
in the first 73A minutes of the
tangle. Bob Johnson dropped
in a free shot in the opening
seconds for the Grizzlies.
Then George Koch countered
for the Tornado. Next score
was a gifter by Shults with
three minutes left in the
quarter. Doug Forrest tied the
tiff at 2-all and John Harvey
made it 3 to 2 for Medford
with a free marker.
Cal Dean Scores
First field bucket came
when Cal Dean busted up an
Ashland pass. Harvey re
covered the ball and passed
to Dean who tabulated off the
fast break. Jerry Anderson
then goaled for Medford on a
feed shot.

by wrestling promoter Elton
Owen this Tuesday night at
the Josephine County fair
grounds arena at Grants Pass.
Nick Kozak, the Canadian
flash, will tangle with big
Karl von Himmler in the top
half of the program. Kozak

week and showed his training
by Frank Stojack when he al
most singlehandedly won the
tag match by downing Him
mler and Sasaki both with

What Nick lacks in weight
against the big German he
will make up for with his
speed and cleverness. Himm

to advantage.

and rugged ability. Manouki
an was a football star at Stan
ford university. He was voted
the "top lineman" award in
the 1957 East - West Shrine
game and was also a top
wrestler at Stanford. He car
ries 220 solid pounds on a 5-8
frame and is a lot of man al
though lacking the experi

Freshman Star
Leaves Trojans
Los Angeles-IEPD-USC head
football coach Don Clark de
nied today that the departure
of freshman star John Chis
dak for his home in Scranton,

the coach emphasized that
Chisdak had not made any
definite decision either way
as to whether he would return
to USC for the spring terra.

CASTRO TO THROW
Montreal l!PD Rebel lead
er Fidel Castro will demon
strate the new Cuban govern
ment's love for sports next
April 14 by throwing out the
first ball of the International
league opener between the
Havana Sugar Kings and the
Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Grand Coulee Dam on
the Columbia river is the
world's largest concrete dam.
Fanfare
Is the Medford Police Ath
letic league finished? Latest
indications are that it may
be unless some positive action
is taken soon. And it seems
a shame.
Chief of Police Charles
Champlin, president of PAL,
reported that the gymnasium
upstairs at 6 West Sixth st.
has been closed at least tem
porarily by the organization.
The reasons: Lack of interest
and shortage of funds. Chief
Champlin stated that, if suf
ficient interest is not devel
oped soon, the closure will
become permanent.
The lack, of interest is
among the older boys of the
community and among men
who might assist with club
activities and by the public.
PAL, coach Jim Zack report
ed that there is still a good
number of the younger boys
interested in the gym facil
ities but few of the older
ones turned out when the gym
reopened after the Christmas
holidays. And, Zack did not
have the help of another
adult to supervise other ac
tivities while he worked with
youths interested in boxing.
The gym shut down on Jan.
14.
OLDER BOYS NEEDED
Shortage of older boys
since the first of the year
ties in with the financial
woes of . the club. PAL
needs these youths to par
ticipate in its amateur fight
cards which have provided
funds for club operation.
Trips for participation in
matches outside this area
are incentive to these boys
PAL recently received sev
eral invitations to enter
boys in bouts but has not
had the money to send
them.
MEETING PLANNED
Some sort of campaign to
rekindle interest and some
sort of project to provide
funds are the immediate needs
if PAL is to pay its current
bills and keep going. Champ
lin said a PAL board meet
ing is to be called shortly to
discuss the problem. Perhaps,
some sort of smoker using
the younger boys and other
recruited talent, would be a
means of starting a revital
izing campaign.
One PAL official said it
was felt that the younger
boys are not sufficient draw
ing card. Another pointed to
the lack of a suitable arena
as a handicap in presenting
PAL boxing shows. The old
Medford armory, the former
Merrick's arena and, for a
period, the Esquire theater
were set up for such shows.
It was thought that the- new
Medford armory would simi
larly be set up but its facil
ities have proved a big dis
appointment so far.
ROLE IN COMMUNITY
Chief Champlin has ex
pressed his personal feeling
that the "Pal club" has had
a role in the community in
steering boys along more
honorable and wholesome
paths. "I wish . we could
spark this thing up," he
remarked. "I hate to see it
close. I think the thing is
good and (other) people
think the thing is good but
it's a matter of making the
effort." He declared that
PAL is undergoing a "pe
riod of discouragement."
ZACK PRAISED
The chief of police praised
the efforts of the PAL coach,
stating that "Jim Zack is re
sponsible for the thing run
ning as long as it has." Zack
is supposed to be -getting a
salary but most of his time

'WHERE GOOD SERVICE IS
By DICK JEWETT
Mail Tribune Sports Editor
has been donated in recent
months. He reportedly has re
ceived one month's salary for
four nights per week he has
spent on the job.
OPEN TO ALL
PAL's value is that it has
performed a function which
other community organiza
tions have either shunned or
forsaken in providing recrea
tion for boys.. Membership for
youths of the vicinity has
been free, opening PAL to
every bojr who wanted to
join. Zack said he would like
to see the club expanded to
include a variety of sports,
among them Softball and lit
tle league baseball, the year
abound.
Such a program, as the
writer sees it, is, however,
too big for PAL and will not
come about until the. City of
Medford goes into the full
time recreation business with
directors and staff. The fact
that the city now has a parks
and recreation committee is
an indication that such a pro
gram eventually will be de
veloped.
