Hawkinson's, Jewelers
Take Tussles in SOIBL
Hawkinson Tire Tread kept
its unmarred status in the
Southern Oregon Independent
Basketball league by defeat
ing Medford National Guard,
82 to 34, in the first game
of a double-header on the Mc
Loughlin Junior high court
last night. Andy's Jewelers
dropped Butte Falls in the
second game by 73 to 60.
The Jewelers took lone
hold on third place in the
standings and the Guard and
Butte Falls are in a percent
age tie for fourth.
In the first game Hawkin
son was never headed. Jump
ing ahead on a foul shot,
the Treaders tallied nine
points before the Guard found
scoring range. In the first 10
minutes Hawkinson led most
of the way by nine points but
just before that stage the
Guard cut the lead to seven
points at 11 to 18.
In the last 10 minutes of
the half the Treaders added
19 points to their score while
allowing the Guard to pick
up only six, making the mid
way score 37 to 17.
Treaders were responsible
for 17 tallies in the third 10-
minute span, while the Guard
could make only 10.
Seven points were put in by
the Guards in the final stretch
of play while the Treaders
produced their biggest scor
ing of the game as they
dropped in 28 points.
Syracuse
Wrecker
Of LaSalle
By FRED DOWN
United Press International
And now there are two-
Cincinnati and Villanova.
They stand alone as the na
tion's only major unbeaten
college basketball teams after
Syracuse's 91-84 double over
time upset Wedndesday night
ended LaSalle's nine-game
winning streak. Texas A&M,
which started the week as a
fourth major unbeaten, was
whipped Tuesday night by
Southern Methodist.
But Cincinnati and Villa
nova - both of which have
tough schedules this week
kept rolling . with relative
ease.
Cincinnati, the nation's top
ranked team, led by only five
points at halftime but roared
to its 13th straight victory
with a 79-57 conquest of 10th
ranked St. Louis. Oscar Rob
ertson was held to 27 points,
far below his 38.2 per game
average, but poured in 19 dur
ing the second half when the
Bearcats solved St. Louis'
sticky slow-down game.
Villanova stretched its win
ning streak to '10 games as
John Driscoll and George Ra
veling controlled both back
boards against the smaller
Temple Owls in an 81-69 vic
tory. Gill Suffered
Heart Attack
Seattle - (UPD - An attending
physician at Providence Hos
pital here confirmed today
that Amory T. (Slats) Gill,
Oregon State College basket
ball coach, suffered a heart
attack after the OSC-Washing-ton
game here Monday.
Gill was taken to the hos
pital when he complained
about not feeling well Mon
day night, but up until Wed- j
nesday afternoon doctors de-;
scribed his illness as a "pos
sible heart attack."
The physician, who asked
not to be identified, said car
diographs and blood tests of
the last two days confirmed
the heart attack.
However, he added that Gill '
was in fair condition and that
there have been no complica
tions of any sort.

Dave Hughes had 19 points
and Dave D'Olivo tallied 15
to lead the Hawkinson team,
while Von Haviner picked up
14 for the Guard.
In the first half of the sec
ond game, the lead changed
hands seven times in four
minutes as the two teams
traded baskets but toward the
end of the first half the Butte
Falls shooting cooled off and
Andy's moved into a 36 to
29 intermission lead.
In the second half the two
teams traded baskets so that
the Loggers never cut the
deficit or fell behind more
than nine points until Andy's
forged ahead to lead by 18.
Butte Falls stayed within
nine points of the Jewelers
until the final stage of the
conflict when Andy's moved
out to an 18-point spread at
68 to 50. A fast break helped
Butte Falls narrow the margin
by five points before the
game ended.
Bill Irwin of Butte Falls took
scoring honors by dropping
in 23 points. Al McCorquodale
of Butte Falls and Dennis
Conner of Andy's each picked

Crater Opposes Ashland,
Grants Pass this Week
Central Point Crater
high's Comets, ambitious to
stay in contention in the
Southern Oregon conference,
are preparing to meet two
league opponents this week.
Both conflicts are away
from home. The Comets travel
to Ashland on Friday and to
Grants Pass on Saturday
evening. It will be the first
meeting of the campaign for
Ashland and Crater, the smal
ler schools of the circuit.
However, the Comets will
seek a repeat decision over
the GP Cavemen.
Coach Lloyd Hoffine indi
cated that Crater practices
this week have been on a gen
eral nature with effort being
made to sharpen the various
phases of the game.
Edward's Foot Ails
The mentor reported that
there is still a question as to
wh ther Dennis Edwards, 6-3,
the tallest Crater performer
er, would be able to start. He
seems to be over his knee
trouble but is bothered, by a
foot ailment which resulted
from favoring the knee.
Loyal Higinbotham's should
er trouble, reported to be a
slight separation is said to be
responding to treatment. He,
Dave Sharp, Earl Cooper and
Chuck Turner are possible
starters Friday evening with
the fifth man expected to be
chosen from among Gary
Johnson, Tom White and Ed
wards. Ashland Coach Earl Iba is
Rogue Loop
Scraps Set
For Friday
Glendale, which established
itself as favorite by winning
a holiday tournament, makes
its 1960 debut in Rogue league
basketball on Friday.
The Pirates oppose Illinois
Valley at Cave Junction. On
Saturday Glendale will enter
tain Rogue River. Other week
end tangles in the loop take
Eagle Point to Rogue River on
Friday and Illinois Valley to
Phoenix on Saturday.
Illinois Valley - Glendale
contention matches the final
ists in the December Rogue
League classic at Phoenix.
Glendale won that brush by
13 points. IV's Cougars, co
champs last year with Eagle
Point, nevertheless, must be
considered serious contenders
in the light of other per
formances. The Cougars and Phoenix
won their loop start scuffles
last week end while Eagle
Point and Rogue River suffer
ed setbacks to their title
hopes.
A non-league mix on Satur
day will bring Yreka, Calif.,
to Eagle Point. Yreka won
from the Eagles last Saturday.
SERIES SET
Portland -(UPD- Oregon and
University of Portland open a
home - and - home basketball
series here Friday night
which will match two of the
region's most talented sopho
mores. Oregon's top scorer
has been Glenn Moore, the 6
7 rookie from Klamath Falls
who has recovered from a
badly sprained ankle. The Pi
lots will be led by 6-9. Bill
Garner, former East St. Louis
prep star. The two teams meet
in Eugene Saturday night.
J
expected to go with the usual
combination of Phil Tucker,
Dave Jackson, Bob Hardy,
Harley Dickerson and Jerry
Hauck. The Grizzlies are seek
ing their first victory in four
league games. -
Grants Pass will entertain
the Comets after meeting Kla
math on Friday. Only Rex
Benner, with 35 points, was
able to score effectively
against the Comets, in the
earlier meeting but the Cave
men have shown better bal
ance since that time.
