MEDFORlkWrRIBUK Phoenix, Henley Vie In A-2 Hoop Playoff Seattle Downs Portland Quint United Press International Gonzaga and Seattle romp ed to easy victories in the only major coast cage action Wednesday night, Whitworth tried a special defense to stop the Zags" scor ing machine, Frank Burgess. Four men played a zone and one man kept on Burgess. At half, Whitworth was only two points behind and Burgess had but 7 points. But Burgess, a junior who has broken six of 14 school records already, hit 27 points in the second half. He thus had 34 markers as Gonzaga won 94-75. Seattle's one-two punch of Dave Mills and Don Ogorek led the Chieftains to an 82 71 win over Portland. The Chiefs piled up a 69-51 lead In the second half and then coach Vince Cazetta cleared the bench. Phoenix-Phoenix high bas ketball team has been work ing on offense mainly as it preps for a subdistrict playoff fracas. The Pirates take on Henley Friday night at Phoenix with the winner to get a berth in the full District 6 A-2 tourney at Roseburg next week end. Coach Jack Woodward has had his Phoenix club working on its attacking game, mostly, with the feeling that Pirate defense has been real good. The mentor indicated that Gerald Sloper, Mike Cons bruck, Tom Atchison, Mike Reese and Jim Floyd will have starting assignments. Phoenix suffered a blow yesterday when Ron Baker turned his ankle in practice. Whether the injury is real serious was not learned this morning. Baker had been ticketed for considerable duty in the playoff game. Henley, sparked by Ray Jackson, will come here after a recent non-league 42 to 39 nod over the Pirates. The Hornets do not compete in Rogue league basketball but are granted the right to meet the loop's second place team for one berth in the district runoff. Henley has most of its action against Klamath county Class B schools. This has been considered a rebuilding year at Henley. Coach Fred Hess has only two seniors on his squad Dick Reiling and Jackson. Juniors include Bert Allbritton, Floyd Kendall, Larry Lugo and Bob Chapman. A freshman, Kent Gooding, 6-5, is tallest man on the squad. Possible Henley starters are Allbritton, Chap man, Gooding, Jackson and Kendall. The Hornets have an upset win over Malin, which took the Klamath B school honors. Phoenix tied with Eagle Point for the Rogue league second place" but gained the Henley playoff on the strength of beating EP twice in the circuit. Tiger Defeats Ace 2nd Time Chicago -flJPD- Gene "Ace" Armstrong, his dreams of a rapid climb toward the world middleweight title interrupt ed again by Nigeria's Dick Tiger, refused to admit defeat today. "I thought I won the fight," he said. "He never hurt me. But that's the way the bal loon blows Armstrong, a 27 -year -old fighter who has lost only twice in 20 pro bouts, both times to Tiger, was about the only person in the arena Wed nesday night who thought he won. Tiger, 30, the British mid dleweight titleholder, was ahead on points on every card. United Press Interna tional and Referee Walter Brightmore both had it 49-43 for him. Judge Bill Doty gave him a 47-44 edge and Judge John J. Schreiner scored it 47-45 for Tiger.
