NW Conference
Leaders Clash
United Press International
Linfield and Willamette,
leading the pack in the North
west Conference basketball
race, meet in a crucial home-and-home
series this week
end.
The two teams, each sport
ing 3-0 records, play in Salem
tonight and at McMinnville
Saturday night.
Drop in
for a Bit of
Southern Oregon conference
basketball here on Saturday
night features a pair of the
top rated prep teams in Ore
gon.
Medford high is host to the
Klamath Union Pelicans.
Game time is 8:15 p.m. at the
Hedrick . court. The Black
Tornado bears the No. 2 and
No. 3 rankings of press serv
ice pollsters while Klamath
Falls rates No. 5 status in
both polls.
Host Medford goes into
Saturday night action unde
feated in the conference and
with the benefit of a week of
rest from competition. Kla
math Falls' standing tomor
row will depend on the but
come of its game tonight at
Grants Pass. At present the
Pelicans are 2-1 in the loop
as compared to Medford's 4-0.
Only Loss To Medford
Only Klamath loss this sea
son has been to Medford,
making the Pels 8-1 for the
full slate while Medford is
7-3.
Other action in the league
this week end takes Crater to
Ashland this evening and to
Grants Pass on Saturday.
With the exception of Ken
Durkee. who has had a bad
cold, Coach Frank Roelandt
has reported his Medford
Tornado in good physical
shape for the Pelican clash.
Durkee "shot around" at prac
tice yesterday and whether
he will start Saturday night
was to depend on whether he
could go full speed in today's
workout.
Medford's starting crew
likely will be chosen from
among Jerry Anderson, Jerry
Shults, Lowell Dean, Bob
Quinney, Dick Ragsdale and
Durkee. It's possible that Roe
landt will open with Durkee
in his usual guard position
but have him alternately in
and out of the hassle.
KF Has 6-B Players
With the play of Freddie
Biehn apparently having
earned him a starting slot,
Coach Dean White may open
with a different Klamath
crew than that which began
against Medford two week
ends ago. The selection will
be from among Bruce Brick
ner, Gary Patzke, Steve Bin
ney, Bob Lewis, Paul Bishop,
Dean Dunson, Don Eastman
and Biehn.
A pair of 6-6 players, Lewis
and Brickner, give Klamath
the altitude edge on Medford
but the Tornado is expected
to make up for this deficit
with its speed and aggressive
ness.
Medford margin in the oth
er game was 62 to 46.
There will be junior varsity
and sophomore games at 6:30
p.m. on Saturday with the
jayvees playing at Hedrick
and the sophs at the senior
high school.
'Showboat' Hall To
Join Globetrotters
Here on Thursday
I
Robert 'Showboat" Hall, re
puted to be one of the great
est comedians ever to wear
the uniform of the Harlem
Globetrotters, will rejoin the
team when it appears in
Medford on Jan. 21, it was
announced today by Abe Sap-
erstein, club owner. The
Globetrotters play the San
Francisco All-Nations at "Hed
rick junior high school gym,
starting at 8 p.m.
Hall has a long history
with the Negro quintet since
joining the organization in
1948. He quickly adapted
himrelf to the brand of ball
played by the Globetrotters
and his natural flare for
comedy soon made him the
team's principal drawing card.
He decided to retire from
active competition two years
ago but Saperstein has lured
him back to the ranks and
he will rejoin his former
teammates when they arrive
here.
Five acts of professional en
tertainment at halftime will
round out the program. Tick
ets are on sale at Lamport's
Sporting Goods store, 226
East Main st., Medford.
Raider JV
Wins 65-60
Ashland - Ten players got
into the scoring column for
the Southern Oregon college
Jayvees last night as they
scored a come - from - behind
victory over Glendale 65 to
60 in the SOC gym in the
Southern Oregon Independent
Basketball league.
Joe McNab copped top scor
ing honors for the Glendale
club and the game at 18 but
it was not enough to hang
onto the 32 to 27 halftime
lead Glendale held.
Teammate Jess Nunyon had
13 while Jayvee hoopsters'
John Cook and Mert White
had 12 each as did Morrie
Jiminez of Glendale.
The junior Raiders came
from behind midway in the
second half to take a 61 to 50
lead. Glendale whittled away
at the margin but could not
quiet get back into conten
tion. Things had been directly
opposite in the first stanza
with the junior Redmen lead
ing through most of the pe
riod before hitting a scoring
drought and falling behind.
Next league action for the
junior Raiders will be Satur
day night when they venture
to Butte Falls for a game with
that team.

Ashland - Southern Oregon
college seeks to make up some
of the ground it losi to Port
land State when it ventures
to Monmouth for a two-game
basketball series with Oregon
College Friday and Saturday.
It will return for a single
game with Oregon Tech Tues
day night in the Raider gym.
Coach Ted Schopf has been
i drilling the SOC club intense
ly since it split two games
with Eastern Oregon to open
Oregon Collegiate conference
; play. Schopf feels the Raid
ers must vastly improve their
shooting and ball handling
before they will be ready for
OCE's Wolves.
"We have too many scoring
droughts xn. games," Schopf
stated. He remarked that this
; failing hurt even during pre
! conference play and must be
corrected. "Our rebounding
has been satisfactory," Schopf
said, "but our field shooting
has not benefitted from it."
Four Game Streak
Oregon College, on the
other hand, is riding on the
brink of a four game win
streak mainly on the scoring
of forwards Dennis Spencer
and Ron Jones coupled with
the rebounding of Al Harter,
the Wolves' mainstay center.
Since splitting with EOC,
the Raiders have been trying
various combinations as far
as putting a starting lineup
together is concerned. Schopf
will probably go with Gordy
Carrigan and Dick Puhl at
the guards and John Payne
at a forward.
The main switching prob
lem has been at center and
filling the other forward.
Either 6-5 Glen Peterson or
6-4 Dick Smith will get the
post call with choice among
Don Vannice, 6-1, Tom Bernet,
6-1, and Dave Gardner, 6-0,
to fill the remaining forward
berth.
Carrigan continues to lead
the team in scoring with a
14.7 game average while
Payne is second with 10.9
points per game.
Last year the Raiders beat
the Wolves four times during
the OCC season on their way
to second place in the con
ference cage race.
Against Oregon Tech the
Raiders will have their prob
lems no matter who starts,
but the Owls will be having
similar troubles. Owl Coach
Wally Palmberg puts a team
on the floor that affords the
Raiders a good battle regard
less of past performances of
both ball clubs.
Two years ago the two
teams battled through four
overtimes before the Raiders
finally won. Last year the two
teams went into overtime at
Klamath Falls before the
Owls took command and
spoiled the Raiders bid for a
tie in the OCC crown race.
The game has much signifi-
gance tied to it for it will be
the Raiders first home confer
ence game of the new year,
the traditional Owl and Toma
hawk will be at stake for the
winner. These are now in the
hands of the Techmen.
Spectators are urged to
come early for seating in the
Raider gym. In the past,
capacity crowds have been on
hand for the rivalry .between
the Raiders and Owls.
Jayvee Coach Jim McAbee
will send his charges into
battle against the Owl junior
varsity as a preliminary game
beginning at 6:30 p.m.
