The Red Raiders from Lub bock moved Into a tie for first place in the league standings with Texas by defeating Texas Christian, 89-75, Wednesday night. Southern Methodist, also lightly regarded in pre season speculation, improved its position with a Southwest conference victory over Rice, 65-63. Del Ray Mounts and Jan Loudermllk - a couple of jun iors - supplied the winning punch for the winners. Mounts, the 5-10, 155-pound floor leader for Texas Tech led the Raiders' second half surge and finished with 26 points. Loudermilk, who stands 6-6, poured in 27 points as SMU had to rally in the second half to down the Owls. Boosts Tech's Record The triumph boosted Texas Tech's record for the season to 7-7, but In the WC the Raiders stand 4-1, along with defending champion Texas.

The Mustangs, who hit only five field goals in the first half, went ahead to stay at 40-39 with 8:52 left to play in the game. Incentives In UO-OSC Cage Game Oregon State College, Cor- vallis Oregon State's last- rising Beavers, No. 1 in the northwest "Race to the Re gionals," have some big in centives ahead this week as they prepare for a crucial bas ketball series against strong rival Oregon. First of all, the Staters nat urally want to stay in the lead for a bid to the NCAA westr ern regional NCAA tourna ment in Portland next month. By winning both games, they could retain that advantage. And there's a matter of the Chancellor's trophy, which goes annually to tne state school winning the annual series. Since the trophy was originated In 1953 by then Chancellor Charles D. Byrne, it has never left the Oregon State trophy case. Oregon State has retained possession eight consecutive years, with 22 victories out of 30 games played in that span, Last season, the Beavers whip ped the Ducks three out of five times, even though they missed the invite to the re gional. In the history of the trophy, this may well be Oregon State's toughest assignment, however. - The Ducks have shown great improvement since the Far West Classic, and last week end polished off both Washington and Seattle U with considerable ease. They have a current vic tory skein of five straight at home. Slats Gill's club, too, has come along fast in recent games. Two weeks ago, the victims were Idaho and Wash ington State, then last week end it was the University of Portland and Washington that lost to the Beavers. And fans here are still talk ing about that fabulous shoot ing performance by the Beav ers in the second half of the Washington same. Led by Jim Woodland and Jay ' Carty, Oregon State banged In IB of 23 shots in the second half to finish the game with a ,600 percentage. Both Oregon and Oregon State boast top defenses and should be as well matched next week end as any clubs In the west. A large throng is expected here Friday night when they Nopen the series, and. Business Manager Jim Barratt advises fans to pur chase tickets in advance this week In counter sales, through the mal'i or by telephone. Louis To Visit Salem IWD Former world heavyweight boxing champ Joe Louis will visit the Ore gon correctional institution and state prison Sunday He will be the guest of Sec retary of Slate Howell Ap pling Jr. Purpose, Appling said, Is a "continuing program to stimulute an interest in ath letics among penal inmates."

Medford and Crater will play at Central Point in an 8:15 p.m. engagement which launches the second half of league play for each team. The Black Tornado of Med ford and the Comets of Crater each are girding for two week end games. Medford tussles Ashland at Medford on Sat urday while Crater goes to Klamath Falls. Other game of the week end In the circuit will have Grants Pass at Ash land tomorrow. Crater's week end assign ment could be considered tougher for it meets the two top clubs in the loop while Medford takes on the two at the bottom of the standings. Spirits Rising Medford Coach Frank Roe Iandt reported his club "a little down" after its loss at Klamath Falls last week end to the state's No. 1 rated team. He indicated that spirits were on the upsurge as of yester day. The Comets, according to reports from mentor Lloyd Hoffine, have been slower to catch fire in drill after their setback at the hands of Grants Pass just when the chances looked bright for topping the Cavemen. The Comets, despite a 2-6 standing to Medford's 6-2 in the league, have shown the potential to give the Tornado trouble and the Medford club is not going to Central Point expecting a pushover. In the two previous sessions with the Comets, Medford was victor 59 to 43 and 82 to 61. In the meantime, Crater has risen up to give loop pacing Klamath one of its two big scares in the circuit. Medford took its first game this season at Central Point by getting an 11 to 0 jump on Crater! In the second meeting, at Medford, the Black Torna do needed a longer time to break away. The Tornadoes headed the Comets by only 30 to 28 late in the second period. Then it outscored Cra ter 25 to 14 in the third quar ter to establish its control. Bray May Start Preparations this week at Medford have been aimed at being ready for any type of at tack or defense the Comets may use. Roelandt indicated no particular stress except possibly working offense against zone defense. Roelandt reported that Bruce Bray may get a starting assignment and said that Mike Hood and Howard Brown may see a lot of service. Ailments have held Brown back. Roe landt says he now seems ready to go. At Central Point, Hoffine has had his workouts short in his effort to charge up the Comets for the two week end tussles. Senior players held sway in a scrimmage yester day. A combination of lourth ycar men defeated lower class members on the squad by 20 points, the first time seniors have won out in scrimmage in the 2'i seasons Hoffine has been at the helm. Despite the senior success, the Crater mentor may have sophomores Mike Gllnes and Louis Alvarez in the starting lineup along with seniors Loyal Hlginbotham, Dennis Edwards and Bryson LaCasse. With Edwards and LaCasse 6-4, this would give the Com ets a combination of two tall and three short men. Sophomores vie at 5 p.m. and jayvees at 6:30 p.m. at Central Point Friday, Hours will be the same for Medford play against Ashland on Sat urday. On Crater's trip to KF, freshmen via at 1 p.m. and sophs at 3 p.m. with Jay vees set for 6:30 p.m. Trade of Tittle Said Possible San Francisco (UPI There's talk that the San Francisco Forty Nlners may trade quar terback Y.
