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.

Saturday times for those re

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

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

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.

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.

Phoenix Presbyterian and
First Mcthoclisl preserved un

men's church league basket
ball. The Phoenix team beat
First Nazarone 33 lo 27 with
Thompson and Floyd of the

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.

Double - and triple - check
your arithmetic, reading of

from your scratch work sheets.
Be sure you have put
your name on top of the re
