Tornado Hoopsters
Meet Bucs Friday
Only one letterman is ex
pected to be in the starting
lineup for the Marshfield
High school Pirates Friday
when the Coos Bay club op
poses Medford in the basket
ball opener for both schools.
The game is set for 8:15
p.m. at Hedrick Junior High
school floor. Medford will
play North Bend here on
Saturday.
Lone letterman starter for
fhe Pirates will be Bob Reich
ert, 5-10, who has earned two
monograms but was a non
regular last season. Others
who may get the opening calls
of Coach Bruce Hoffine are
all up from the junior varsity.
One is Gary Crabaugh, 5-8,
top scorer for the Buc jayvees
last season. Then are Stan
Traxler, 6-3, Bill Chandler,
6-2, and Wiley Smith, 5-11.
Reichert, Chandler and
Smith are seniors and the
others juniors.
Termed "the sixth man" is
Arnold Sampson, 5-10, a sen
ior who has played JV ball.
Marshfield's only returning
regular is Bob Buries, 6 i
senior. He suffered a broken
ankle in the football game
with Medford this fall and
has just "thrown away" his
crutches. It may be another
two weeks before he'll be with
the hoop team.
The Pirates lost a diamond)
in the rough about 10 days
ago when Mike Mattox, 6-6
junior, moved back to Inde
pendence, Mo. He hud trans
ferred from that school to
Marshfield last fall. Loss of
Mattox, after having worked
him in drills, reportedly has
forced Hoffine to switch his
offense. Hoffine, however, has
said he thinks he will have a
real interesting ball club
which may run more than did
last year's Pirates.
Medford will meet a vet
eran team when it goes up
against North Bend. The Bull
dogs likely will have five
lettermen starting and four
other monogram men may be
among reserves. Of the pos
sible North Bend starters
Chuck Johns, 6-6, Ron Kersey,
5-10, and Jeff Allen, 5-11,
were regulars last season.
North Bend has played one
game. It defeated Coquille 32
to 28.
Black Tornado Coach
Frank Roelandt said this
morning that his club is
"coming along a little better."
It had a good scrimmage Tues
day and worked on a pressing
game on Wednesday. Roe
landt indicated that he may
call upon Bob Quinney, Dick
Ragsdale and Jim Berry as
starters with either Scott
Eaton or Howard Brown get
ting the fifth spot.
The mentor said that the
ankle Steve Hoots turned is
"much better and he can go."
Hood's ankle is still sore but
he may be able to play some
this week. He's expected to
be at full strength next week.

ed to decide today whether
multi millionaire promoter
James D. Norris will testify
in private or must face the
glare of a public hearing.
Norris has pleaded a weak

closed-door hearing because
they said doctors feared the
excitement of an open session
might bring on a third and
fatal heart attack.
Chances were considered
good that Norris would reach
the witness stand today.
Norris was president of the
International Boxing Club
(IBC) which was broken up
by federal court order last
year on grounds it held a
monopoly "strangle-hold" over
boxing.

Norris has been described
in congressional testimony as
