George Bayer, world's long est hitter from- South Pasa dena, Calif., and Charley Sif ford, world's greatest Negro ihotputter from Los Angeles, were tied for the lead with fix-under-par 65s. But in close contention were veteran Stan Leonard, Vancouver, Canada, with a 66 - which tied him with five others, including National Open and Masters champion Arnold Palmer; Tadashi Kitta of Japan, with a 69; Chen Ching-po of Formosa with a 70; Gary Player, South Africa, with a 70; Roberto de Vicenzo of Mexico City with a 71 and Ben Arda of the Philippines with a 72. Jones Sparks Boston Celtics . United Pr International The Boston Celtics are a team with everything - even the greatest substitute in bas ketball history. He's Sam Jones, a 6-foot, 4-inch blur who is Bob Cousy's iubstitute but who manages to outplay the "master" on certain nights. Jones had one of those nights Thursday night and sparked the Celtics to a 129 121 victory over the Philadel phia Warriors that boosted their lead in the Eastern Di vision of the National Basket ball association to 4li games. Cousy was kept pretty much under control with only three field goals and 13 points but Jones whipped in 11 field goals and added four free throws for 26 points. Hockey NATIONAL LEAGUE United Press International The Boston Bruins haven't had much to cheer about this year but Ihey may yet escape from the National Hockey league cellar. The Bruins moved to with in four points of the Idle fifth place New York Rangers Thursday night when they shaded the Toronto Maple Leafs, 5-4. The Maple Leafs thus lost an opportunity to go Into a first-place tie with the Montreal Canadiens. 10 Disc On All New John Deere MANURE SPREADERS IN STOCK! HURRY . . . ONLY 4 LEFT! HUBBARD WRAY CO.

Saturday times for those re spective games are 4:30, 6:30 and 8:15 p.m. While the Crater hoopsters are not looking by Ashland, they anticipate their toughest opposition from the Cavemen of Grants Pass. The Comets hold a first round triumph over the Grizzlies but Grants Pass soundly thumped the Central Pointers. To Be Reckoned With Last week, however, a spir ited crew of Comets roused up and frightened the league leading Klamath Pelicans se verely before bowing 58 lo 62. This great performance gained the Comets new respect as a club to be reckoned with in the circuit and gave the Cra ter quintet bolstered hopes in the chase. With a 1-5 standing in the campaign they have a long way to go toward league and state tournament ambitions. Victories over both foes this week end would strengthen their chances but even one loss would all but wreck their bid. Grants Pass (3-3) will come here Saturday after a rugged F ri d a y assignment against Klamath Falls. The Cavemen desire greatly to bounce back after last week's loss at Med ford where they felt they were off their game. At GP, Coach Gordon Prehm declared to the Daily Courier, "The kids are deter mined to make up for last week. They're not giving up. We still have a chance to go to the state tournament and we're going to fight for it as long as we can." Work on re bounding and defense have had the Cavemen's attention. Crater Coach Lloyd Hoffine may call on Bryson LaCasse, Dennis Edwards, Loyal Higin botham, Mike Glines and Jeff Anhorn to start against Ash land this evening with the Sat urday lineup depending on how the Grizzly game goes. LaCasse, Edwards and Higin botham were big guns in the fiery scrape with Klamath. Ashland mentor Earl Iba may send out Jerry Hauck, Sid DeBoer, Dallas Brownson, Gary Tepper and Larry John son. For Grants Pass against KF tonight the possibles are Larry Janssen, Dave Hauntz, Clyde Murray, Bob Lewellyn and Al Staley with Jim Davis going into the lineup for Lewellyn or Staley if more height is de sired. Rohde Picked Tiger Mentor Stockton, Calif. -IUPII- John Rohde, assistant football coach at University of Pacific since 1953, will take over as head coach Feb. 1. He succeeds Jack (Moose) Myers, who resigned after the school announced plans to abandon big-time football. Dr. Robert E.

Middle ton has gained two nods so far over Kondo, State Prep Interest On Medford-Klamath Statewide prep basketball attention again this week end focuses on the Southern Ore gon conference where two of the state's highest ranked ag gregations vie. The game of interest is Med ford High school's battle Sat urday night at Klamath Falls. Klamath carries the No. 1 Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DeVoss Every year when the game commission proposes to change the hunting and fish ing regulations it can be ex pected that no mattery what the change will be there will be howls of anguish from those who feel pinched by it. They complain that the laws are becoming more and more restrictive to the extent that it is impossible to enjoy hunt ing and fishing. ANTI-CHUMMING LAW The proposed change that is getting quite a bit of atten tion this year has lo do with the banning of the use of bait from an anchored boat. De spite the obvious attempt to use this as a means of con trolling chumming in Dia mond Lake, the law is a bad one in that it is discriminatory and probably wouldn't slop the practice of chumming. There are too many fisher men who want to fish with bait because they feel confi dent that it will catch more fish. It is a poor law that re stricts a group in order lo help enforce another law aimed at a small part of the group. BUT WHAT TO DO? The problem of illegal chumming still exists, and will continue so long as the only method used to halt it is the passing of another law or the hiring of another policeman. The fact that poachers and chummers are stealing the re serves of our fish and game should be important to every hunter and fisherman. In the case of chumming, Ihe fisher men who enjoy bait fishing should realize that they have a responsibility which is tied to their enjoyment. If they will not accept the responsibil ity they can expect laws which will try to do it for them. CONSERVATIONISM This is not just a local prob lem and some timely com ments on it have been made by Justico E. Harris Drew, of the Florida Slate Supreme Court. He has said: "I have found that some of our most ardent conserva tionists will neither report nor lake any issue with their friends who consistently vio late the fish and game laws. Most of us are inclined lo put our tongues in our cheeks when our close friends open ly discuss and brag about vio lating the conservation laws. Moreover, I am sure that few, if any. of the most ardent conservationists take the trouble to report to the proper authorities the violation of the conservation laws or lo offer lo testify in the prosecution of such offenders. "If all of ui who hunt and fish would go to the trouble of remonstrating with those who openly brag of violations of the law and will report vio lations of the law made in our presence and actively as sist the officers in the prose cution of violators - whether friend or foe or utter strang ers - it would do more lo solve this problem than any other single thing." SELFISH THIEVERY It is easy to imagine the consternation in a person's mind when he contemplates acting according to the advice given above. This is especial ly true in Oregon where the fish and game are plentiful and poachers and poaching have a measure of public ac ceptance. But their days are numbered, and the time is MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. ratings in the polls and Med ford has run No. 2 and No. 3. Based on the previous meet ing, a tossup contest is fore seen. The Pelicans took the tussle at Medford 58 to 56 in overtime and Klamath had to come from behind in both the fourth quarter and the extra period to nab it. here when they must not lake that which we must share with more and more people. The game can be played ac cording to the rules and if one will not, why then he should not play at all. THE CHANGE IS HERE " An example of how the public is accepting their part in this area is to be found in their reaction to seeing a boat in the upper Rogue with people seemingly fishing out of it. The state police were flooded with calls and upon investigating discovered that the boat contained game com mission personnel making a travel lime study of the river flow. In the middle Rogue below Grants Pass ihe police were not called but individ ualists had guts enough to give the boatmen a few choice words. TIIK ANGLER'S LOG Local fishermen ought to make some stronR medicine and try to stop the construction outfit below Gold Hill from muddying up the river. It's a gravel cleaning opera tion and the muck is overflowing into the Rogue to the extent that it louses up the fishing below. Applcgate Ktver Is giving up a few fish every day. Most of them are being caught below Williams creek. Some fishermen make a big killing down by Murphy but when they brought their fish in for show ing it was discovered they had caught sore-back silver salmon. Illinois River The water is very clear and the fish are there for the taking. The problem is finding just what they are taking. Small spin-n-glos have been doing some business, with an assist from single egRs. Klamath River The stories per sist that there is a hig run down the river. Those who have tried to chase the rumor down haen't had the best of luck. Hut then fisher man's luck always it a chancy thing. Rogue River There are repnrls of fish being taken below Giiliee. There seems to be no dearth of fish in the river but getting them on a hook has left some good fish ermen somewhat frustrated. Smith River Was good yester day and wilt be good again some time next week. A working man just can't catch this river right on a week end. When there hasn't been much rain it's a real gamble to drive the distance. TIIK OPTIMIST'S CORNER The weatherman Isn't promising anything like the amount of rain we need for top fishing hut maybe he'll be as wrong about that as when he promises rain and we don't get any. Anyway, we mustn't lose patlenre, herause the weather man depends on tha same lurk as the fisherman. OCIOI I.IX'K! BASKETBALL TIUIISIIAV COLLEGE United Press International Arkansas (Hi.

The two may meet again Saturday night when Medford entertains the Cavemen here and Don would like to make the most of the chance. The Medford Black Tornadoes en gage Roseburg here this evening. Focused Conflict This time the Pels have the advantage of their home floor. Medford teams have found en gagements on the Klamath court a stern challenge but have come through with fly ing colors time and again. Crucial Skirmish The game is considered cru cial by both clubs despite the fact it just wraps up the first half and each will have eight more games lo go. Medford and Klamath are the recog nized top contenders for the conference pennant. Other clubs could spill their hopes but how the clubs do against each other is important both in the battle for the title and in the chase for a state tour ney berth. Klamath Falls has Grants Pass to scuffle tonight at GP before taking on the Black Tornado Saturday. At Medford Coach Frank Roclandt feels his Tornadoes are both physically and men tally ready for the Pels. "I think we'll give them the best they can find," said the tutor. Roelandt indicated a start ing five of Scott Eaton, Stan Dowson, Bob Quinney, J i m Barry and Dick Ragsdale. But, "Bruce Bray might move in there, he said. Win 11 Straight Klamath is expected lo go with its usual combine of Hay Taylor, Gary Palzke, Bruce Brickner, Fred Biehn and Wally Palmberg. This is a crew which has been instru mental in the Pelican record of 11 straight victories. The Pels have not been beaten since losing their season open er to Roseburg. Medford is 1 1-2 for the year, having lost to South Eugene and only to Klamath in the conference. In the league Klamath is 6-0 and Medford 6-1. The Peli cans face no push over in Grants Pass and an upset by the Cavemen (now 3-3) would send Ihe Pels and Black Tor nado into Saturday battle ex actly even with the first half leadership of the loop hang ing in the balance. Church Teams Stay Unbeaten Phoenix Presbyterian and First Mcthoclisl preserved un beaten records last night in men's church league basket ball. The Phoenix team beat First Nazarone 33 lo 27 with Thompson and Floyd of the winners and Bob Serry of the losers each getting eight points. Presbyterian led 17 lo 10 at the half. Don Wendt scored 13 points for Methodist in its 3H to 30 win over YMCA, for which Mel Jackson got 21. First half Methodist margin was 17 to 8. Phoenix Prcsby and Meth odist are 2-0 in the loop.

Mike BODY SHOP SPORTS Exchange Student on Mat Team Number one in the 123 pound class for the Medford Senior High school wrestling team this season has been a small, slight student from Japan, Don Kondo, who is at tending classes as an exchange student. Don entered wrestling this season for the first time. Be fore trying the sport, he had become quite good at the Japanese version, known as judo. He held the second black belt rank. In addition to participating in wrestling and attending to his studies, Kondo hopes to see some service with Med ford's defending state cham pionship baseball crew. He has played shortstop in Japan. Don also has had experience at other sports, having played both football and basketball before coming here as a high school senior. When asked which he liked best, judo or wrestling, Kondo simply said, "Both. In wres tling you have to lay them down easy, but in judo the harder Ihe better." Although this would be his first year of organized ball, if Don plays baseball like he wrestles, the Black Tornado will have a spirited player on its squad.
