teco Indian from Tijuana,
Mex., will attempt to halt his
ajarming slide in the welter

Big Men Bolster GP
For Bedford Tussle
All indications are that the
Medford Black Tornado will
have its hands full tonight in
Southern Oregon conference
basketball contention.
Seeing its only rivalry of
the week end the loop-heading-
Tornado encounters the
Cavemen at Grants Pass.
Medford needs a triumph to
hang onto its top position
while GP is aiming to rise
from its present third place
status.
The hard fought battle be
tween the two clubs last
week end and developments
at Grants Pass during the
past week provide the evi
dence that the Cavemen in
tend to give Medford a whale
of a battle this evening.
Word out of Grants Pass
from Coach Gordon Prehm
yesterday was that the Cave
men have been strengthened
by the return of both Jerie
Putnam and John Fox. The
two, who have been sidelined
by injuries, are each 6-3 and
the ' tallest among the top
men on the squad. Prehm
pointed out that the Cavemen
"shot with Medford" last
Friday but couldn't match
the Pear city team in re
bounding. Therefore, the two
big boys should help this
time.
Best of Season
The Climate city mentor
also declared that his crew
had its best practices of the
season this week and are
stronger now than at any pre
vious time. ' .
At the Medford tschool
Coach Frank Roelandt
acknowledged that Grants
Pass "will be really ready
and we know we'll be in for
something, tonight. He said
that Ken Durkee may get a
starting call tonight in a
move to give the Tornado
more mobility. Rest of the
line-up could be Jerry Ander
son, Lowell Dean, George
Koch and Don Peek. Among
for
Spring

MEDFORD
those who could see quite a
bit of service are Booth Dea
kins, Jerry Shults, John Har
vey and Cal Dean. The club
is at full strength.
Tornado concentration this
week has been on defense
against a Grants Pass offense
which moves the ball well
and keeps the opposition
hustling. The Medfordites
also- will be out to make then
own offense consistent in
stead of spurty like it was
last week.
Medford holds . two deci
sions so far this campaign
over Grants Pass. Scores
were 57 to 41 at Grants Pass
and 59 to 54 here.
Grants Pass has the heavy
assignment in the loop this
week. The Cavemen travel to
Klamath Falls on Saturday to
oppose the second place Peli
cans. They are hoping for at
least a split in the week end
action. Prehm reported that
GP has mapped a new de
fense to put up against Klam
ath and may try it against
Medford.
Starters Uncertain
Whether the GP mentor
will have his two big men in
the starting five tonight, was
uncertain this morning. The
choice for the opening quint
is among Putnam, Fox, Rex
Benner, Johnnie Olson, Rod
ger Burton, Rick Sabin, Mike
Leonard, Dick Hayes and
Marvin Chandler. Putnam
has been working with the
tape removed from his ailing
back in the latter part of the
week and is a good starting
possibility. Fox has been
wearing a large brace on his
knee.
The Cavemen gave Med
ford plenty of trouble last
week even without their two
big men.
Tonight's mix will see four
of the conference's top four
scorers in action. Medford's
Anderson is tied for the lead
with Bob Petersen of Klam
ath. Each has 135 points and
a 16.9 average. Olson is third
in the loop with 116 average
and 14.5 per game. Lowell
Dean is fifth in the loop with
90 points and Benner is sixth
in point total but his average
is better than Dean's with
12.5 for seven frays to the
Medfordite's 11.2 for eight.

Shaw Asks
Grid Trade
Portland - (UPD - George
Shaw, second string quarter
back of the world champion
Baltimore Colts, said today
he has asked to be traded to
another team so he can play
regularly.
"I'm 25 years old and feel
that I'm still capable of play
ing in the league as a regu
lar," he said. He is understudy-to
all-pro quarterback
Johnny Unitas.
Shaw, who was first string
quarterback for the Colts be
fore injuring a knee two sea
sons ago, said he had asked
to be traded before he left
Baltimore. He said team of
ficials were "very under
standing" with his desire to
play regularly and indicated
they would be- willing to
trade him if an equitable deal
could be arranged.
Several Interested
Several teams are reported
to be interested in acquiring
Shaw.
. Shaw, a formr University
of Oregon star, said Unitas
was a great quarterback. "I
don't see how I could get the
chance to beat him out of the
job. Therefore, the only time
I'd be able to play would be
if he were injured. And I
don't like to sit around wait
ing for someone to get hurt,"
he added.
Shaw is working at a bank
here in the off season.
