Coach Pete Newell's War riors swept a pair last week end from Southern California, 57-46 and UCLA, 53-45, to move a game and a half ahead of the Bruins. With only four conference games left, Cal to all intents and purposes has the big five championship wrapped up.

Red Raiders Sweep OCE Court Series United Press International Stubborn Eastern Oregon college put a crimp in Oregon Tech's Oregon Collegiate con ference title hopes Saturday night with a 68-66 victory. It was the second win in a row for the Mountainers over league-leading OTI. Southern Oregon got past Oregon College 83-71 Satur day night. Oregon Tech now is 8-5 com pared to 6-4 for Portland State.

Dick Smith followed Carri gan with 17, Dave Gardner had 14, Brad Flanary 11, and John Payne pumped in 10 to help the Raiders maintain a hold on third place in the conference. Oregon College made a ball game of it from the middle of the first half until the last 10 minutes of the second half but only four of its players tallied field shots and one of those got only one and an other three. Jones led the way with 16 but it was not enough to cope with the Raid er team effort. In the first half the lead see-sawed 12 times and the score was knotted seven times before OCE's Wolves took a slim one-point lead at the intermission 41-40. Things started off rough for the Raiders in the second half. They faded to a 51-44 deficit with four minutes gone. It took the men of SOC eight minutes of nipping at the heals of the Wolves before Carrigan tossed in a long two- hander and Glen Peterson squirreled under to give the Raiders a 69-67 edge. They kept the lead from there. In the final five one-half minutes the Raiders pumped in 16 points while OCE could manage only four. It was SOC's double win over any team this year. The Raiders shot 51.5 per cent from the field. OCE hit 42.6 per cent.

NYU's triumph - only two days after St. John's upset of fifth-ranked West Virginia -sent New York City's basket ball prestige soaring to per haps its highest level in a decade.

Roscoe Cook, who last sum mer equalled the world rec ord in the 100-yard dash, Sat urday night ran the 60-yard dash in six seconds flat in Los Angeles' Times games. That six seconds equalled the record in that' event which was set by Herb Carper in Dortsmund, Germany, Feb. 28 last year. The other runner, miler Dyrol Burleson, lost the Baxter mile in New York's AC games in Madison Square Garden. Burleson lost the race to Jim Beatty, former North Carolina miler, by the closest of margins. Burleson and Beatty were timed in the exact clockings of 4:05.4 but Beatty was ruled to have crossed the finish line first. , Vic Reeve, also competing in the New York mile, was clocked in 4:11.4 which was good enough for third in the field. Jim Grelle, former Oregon distance star, won the 1,000 yard run in the Los Angeles event in the time of 2:13.4. . Another former Oregon dis tance star, Bill Dellfcnger, placed second in the, Los Angeles mile with a time of 4:09.4. Two Oregon State track men entered in the New York games didn't fare too well. Steve Pauly failed to qualify for the finals in. the hurdles placing fourth In his heat. Darrell Horn placed fourth in the 60-yard dash and also didn't qualify for the finals. Medford's Black Toimado applied its fast break to shat ter the Caveman threa't in a high-powered second qjuarter assault and rambled on to a 77 to 53 triumph over Grants Pass high Saturday night in Southern Oregon conference basketball. With 12 victories and no losses now at the three fourths mark of the "District 6 A-l campaign, the Tornado is within range of reclaiming the conference banner it last held in 1956. Medford cam wrap up the pennant by winning two of its remaining four games or simply by bopping second place Klamath Falls next Sat urday on the Pelican court. Tornado cagers were en abled by free shots to have an 18 to 16 edge on GP at the quarter Saturday evening. They went well out in front with a second panel barrage from the field, leading 39 to 24 at the half. And in the third canto, helped again by frequent jaunts to the gift heave line, they stretched to a margin of 21 points at 60 to 39. Medford's most sizable bulge was 28 points, 75 to 47. Anderson 12 of 13 Jerry Anderson, with 12 tal lies on 13 -chances at the free stripe, was Medford s major point maker with 26. Four players had 11 counters, Bob Quiney and Ken Durkee of Medford and Rex Benner and Dan Mclntire of Grants Pass. Benner "was the game's top re bounder with 14 snares while Quinney had 12 and Ander son 10u Grants Pass, livened by Mc In tire's four field buckets, three on drives, seemed in the first quarter bent on making the fracas a torrid one. But, the Black Tornado broke an 8-each knot on pairs of free throws by Anderson and Jer ry Shults that gave Medford a lead it never gave up: Then in the second stanza, Shultz countered for Medford on a fast break off a Dick Jtagsdale rebound, Anderson hit a pusher from the side, Ken Durkee drove about the length of the court for a shot, Quinney hit from the side on a fast break and Ragsdale scored on another sizzling surge down the court. In the meantime, Benner had put in a single bucket for the Cave men and Medford led 28 to 18 with just over three minutes played in the quarter. Anoth er five field goals and a single free toss added up to 21 Tor nado markers for the chukker while Grants Pass produced just eight. Medford gunned at .714 from the field in the session. 27 Free Tosses The Tornadoes with 27 free counters in the hassle, 10 of them in the first period, col lected nine gifters in the third quarter. They added these to another six' field baskets and again piled up 21 points in an eight minute span. Medford made the route complete by time and again breaking up the Caveman of fensive efforts in the fourth panel. And, the Tornado spread would have been much Yankees Rate Well Back On Downhill Racing List wider but for some erratic passing and misfired shots. Some fine team play again went into the Medford victory but it was fortunate in getting the free shot boost early in the game. The Tornado was cold from the field in the starting quarter, making only four of its 19 shots go in. After the sizzling second panel, the Medford field shooting fell off to average accurcy. GP Jayvees Win Grants Pass junior varsity behind 20 to 29 at the half and 31 to 39 as late as the fourth quarter surged up in the final minutes to nose out the Medford jayvees 43 to 42 in a preliminary game at the Hedrick gym. Medford won the sophomore scrap 55 to 24 on the senior high court. Steve Ausland put in the winning bucket for the Cave man jayvees with just over 1V6 minutes to play. Larry Hammack, Bob Mclntire and Jerry Gastineau all missed free throws for Medford in the last minute of the game. A couple of Medford field tries also failed to find the range. Jim Blacksmith had 20 points for GP and Bruce Bray nine for Medford. The junior Tor nado missed 18 free toss tries. Chuck Allen tallied 15 for the Medford sophs and Vic Van Koten put in nine count ers for GP. BOX:, Grants Past - ft Benner, 1 21-4 Janssen, f . 9-4 Murray, c - - 3-2 Walker, g 6-2 Purkett.

And indications are that the United States feminine racers will be in the thick of the bat tle for gold medals. But the men aren't given a chance to finish in the first 20. On the women's team, Pen ny Pitou of Lancondia, N.H., is rated fourth in the interna tional rankings and Betsy Snite, Norwich, Vt., is listed seventh. Italian Woman Tops The ratings are set by the i International Ski Federation and are based on points scored in major meets. Because the course gets cut up late in the competition, the best spots for competitors is the first "unit" of 12 in the women's and 15 in the men's. But no American men were listed in the first unit for the males. Highest rated is Gor don Eaton, Littleton, Vt., and he is 'way down in 24th place. Pia Riva of Italy topped the women's ratings, Carl Schranz of Austria, the men's.. U.S. Hockey Team Wins The valley got another beautiful, sunny Sunday and the athletes got in excellent workouts on all vanues.

For the second straight day, Germany's young Hel mut Recknagel led the way with two leaps of 91 meters about 295 feet. But the others were right on his trail. Several Finns and Norwegians each bettered the old officially recognized mark for this jump of 88V4 meters. ft reb pt 6-3 14 3 0-0 7 1-1 0-0 8-5 4-1 3-1 0-0 0-0 0-0 0-0 TOUlt ..S0-21 22-11 42 24 53 Medford Anderson, Shults. f 6-2 Ouinney, c - 7-4 Durkee, g 10-5 Ragsdale, g 10-4 Miller 5-2 Deakins 3-1 L.
