Fanfare By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribune Sports Editor McArthur Court, Univer sity of Oregon, Eugene - We like Coach Frank Roelandt's sporting gesture to the oppos ing Jesuit Crusaders and to his own Medford high re serves in playing Tornado non-starters throughout the final period here in their first round tilt of the state A-l hoop tourney Wednesday night. Still, we wonder just how many points the Black Tornado's Jerry Anderson might have tabulated had he seen action throughout the whole game rather than sit ting out the entire last panel. Andy averaged 10 points per quarter for the time he did play, making nine in the first, 10 in the second and 11 in the third. If he had seen duty in the last canto, would he have followed form by scoring 12 points to break his personal record for Medford of 41 markers flipped in against Grants Pass high last year? r DON'T BUY A BOAT Until You Try TRU-V The Locally Built Boat You Don't buy a ear without a demonstra tion Why buy a Boat without first test ing it for Performance, Maneuverability, Dryness, Safety and Easy-Riding Comfort?

But, not pinpoint ed in black and while is an aggregation's t e a m w ork. You have to be on hand to see it. And, teamwork con tributed much Wednesday night to the Medford tri umph over Jesuit. On at least seven of Anderson's 13 buckets he was fed or assisted by a teammate. This feeding paid off in a number of baskets by other Tornadoes and there was some adept working ' the ball in or setting up oppor nities on shots which did not go through the net. You couldn't give credit to any one man for this sort of play. All hands had a part. SECOND BEST AVERAGE In the field goal shooting percentages of the first round in the big school hoop classic, Medford high and Klamath Falls, winner and runnerup in District 6, tied for second best with .452 averages. South Salem topped the list with a .500 against Jefferson of Port land on the strength of its fantastic .714 in the second half. Hermiston's .241 in los ing to St. Helens was the poorest. Medford capitalized on frequent close in opportu nities for its torrid firing fig ure with rebounds and driv ers helping to swell the total. parochial school did earn its way with a strong finish in its District 2 campaign. But, it was certain that Jes uit does not have the classi ness that Medford pos sesses. The Black Tornado did not sparkle at every mo ment of the game. It had its ragged spots. Still, it showed more than enough to impress upon the gallery that Medford does, indeed., have a solid ball club in the tournament. NOT SO CLASSY Someone mentioned Wed nesday night after the Cru sader's loss to Medford that Jesuit clearly did not be long in this Class A-l af fair. We don't exactly go along with that opinion in the literal sense because the TICKET SALES HEAVY San Francisco - (UPD -The San Francisco Giants ticket office reported Thursday that it was "snowed under" with applications for season tickets. As a result, ticket deliveries will be delayed, ihe Giants said. Ticket manager Pete Hoffman said all deliveries will be made by April 1. The Giants open against St. Louis April 12 at the new 42,000 seat park. UNDERDOG CHEERED Of course, outside of its own rousing rooting section, the Tornado was not always cheered. It's human nature to root for the underdog and in this tourney Medford is one of the favorites. You should have heard the tumult when Jesuit flared up with its sec ond quarter rally and seemed on the way to giving Medford a battle, after all. The chal lenge turned out to be short lived. After the Crusaders cut the Medford advantage from 11 to five Doints. the Tornado streaked away and upped the gap to 19 markers. But, upset minded fans were warmed and cheered by the ray of hope. BAND BOLSTERS SUPPORT Certainly was fine to see the pep band, led by Direc tor Irv Mirick, in the Tor nado cheering section. The group of musicians added much to the strength and enthusiasm to ihe Tornado sideline support. Just about every school entered has a rooting section led by rally gals with clever and color ful dance routines. And, from what tournament ad tivity we've seen. Med ford's lasses are the liveli est and fastest stepping of the lot. At halfiime of ihe Medf ord-Jesuii scuffle these Tornado girls put on a Ha waiian dance number, one of the routines they per formed on ihe Medford home court earlier this ' season. SOUTH SALEM SHINES Of the teams in the four first round games we saw aft er arriving here around noon on Wednesday, South Salem gets our bow for the standout operation. And, not for their sharpshooting alone. For the Saxons played a solid and steady game, doing about everything right against Jef ferson of Portland. South led by just three points, 29 to 26 after the first half and we thought that Jeff, with its ex perience in the tough Port land circuit, might flare up strong in the second. How ever, the Capital city lads got better and Jeff's Democrats, if anything, worse. South was sinewy on defense and had backboarding edge. LIONS PLAY TO HILT We liked the persistent way St. Helens went at it to beat into submission ihe overali taller Hermiston contingent. The Lions play ed the fracas to ihe hilt, just like their school's learns always have in this big lourney. The game was touch and go for more than one half. Hermiston zone defense cracked wide open as ihe Lions, mainly, Del Terry and Terry Jackson, shot over ii. St. Helen's top height is 6-2 and as many as three men of that altitude were in the lineup at once. But, Hermiston fielded a five of 6-5, 6-4, 6-2, 6-1 and 6-0. Only two players on the Hermiston roster are under' six feet. They are 5-10. Half of St. Helens' roster is un der the fathom mark.

That is a perfect mark of 10 free shots in 10 attempts. The record has since been tied by Eddie Grossenbacher, Milwaukie and Bill Maurer, North Salem. BEAVERTON SMOOTHER Beaverton looked smooth er to us in losing than South Eugene did in beating the Beavers Wednesday after noon. Beaverton outhit the Axemen from ihe field by one goal and had a .391 to .348 accuracy margin. Eu gene, however, made up for its erratic times with bet ter shooting from ihe free line and two to one rebound control. Bo Blair with 20 points and 23 rebounds and Sandy Nosier with 17 markers, cold at the start but strong in the clutch, led ihe way. ESSELSTYN ARBITER Bill Esselstyn, coach at Medford's Wilson school, is a referee in this A-l tourney from District 6. ' fife DODGE DART There are many purely practical reasons why the Dodge Dart is a wonderful buy. Low price, for example. And exceptional gas mile age. And greater room and comfort and trunk space. But the thing that really makes Dart such a wonderful buy is this: It is a truly fine car, smartly styled and beautifully appointed. You couldn't make a better choice !
