style, with or without two ot
their ablest players, did it
again, without, Friday night
The sound, solid, fast pace
Pelicans emerged from
feather-flying first half to rout
the Medford Black Tornado
for the third time this season
in a Southern Oregon confer
ence hassle. Score was 63 to
56. Triumph carried the fire-
powered Klamaths back into
the state . A-l t o u r n a ment
where they placed third last
year and ascertained no -less
than a league co-crown tor tne
undefeated leaders of District
6.
Success at the free toss line
accounted for the final margin
in the fracas. But, phenominal
lotig range shooting accuracy
in the first half, a surge to a
substantial lead in the third
quarter and ability to frus
trate and counter Medford's
rallv challenges were key ele
ments of the victory. Kent
Hunsaker and Sherm Allen
provided the main scoring
Dunch. Fred Biehn and Hun
saker strong floor play and
Gary Patzke and Kay Taylor
sturdy rebounding for Coach
Dean White's KF crew.
Ground Lost
The Tornado, in defeat, held
onto second place in the cir
cuit standings but lost ground
to Grants Pass which was only
a game behind the Hurricane
after trimming Crater 74 to 63
also on Friday evening.
Klamath fought in front for
keeps at 26 to 24 in the waning
minutes of the first half. Its
struggle to go on top to stay
was not for the faint-hearted
spectator. For, the count was
tied 11 times and lead
switches totaled eight before
the' Pels were permanently
ahead of the reluctant never-say-die
Tornado.
The Pelicans winged to a
13-point gap in the third quar
ter. This bulge was reestab
lished on four occasions
against the bids of the Med-
fordites before the determined
Tornadoes cut the difference
down to five, digits at the
start of the final chapter,
Then, Oregon's top-rated ag
gregation widened to 11 mark
ers and held on from there,
withstanding a Medford press
and playing keep away in the
last three minutes.
Still missing from the KF
lineup were regulars Bruce
Brlckner and Wally Palmberg,
still recuperating from mumps
and an appendectomy, respec
tively.
Quinney Has 28
Bob Quinney spurred the
valiant but futile effort of
Medford to rally by tabulating
20 of his night's high of 28
points in the second half
Sharpshooting Hunsaker, who
had 26 (9 of 1 1 from the field)
for his Klamath labors, put
in 15 of them In the third and
fourth quarters, that much off
setting Quinney's efforts. Al
len, with five of his six field
goals in the first half, chalked
up 14 points for KF and Barry
had 12 points, all on field
shots, for the Black Tornado.
Quinney cleared the back
boards 14 times for Coach
Frank Roclandt's Medfords
and Steve Hoots had nine Tor
nado retrieves before fouling
out. Patzke and Taylor had
eight rebounds each as the
Pels had a slight 30 to 29 team
edge under the boards.
Klamath beat Medford on a
19 to 12 difference on free
heaves. The Tornado dupli
cated Klamath's 22 buckets
from the field but took more
shots in doing so. The Pels had
a sizzling .449 average on 49
tries and Medford averaged
.361 on 61.

MEDFORD MAIL
After a first quarter which
had seven lead changes and
eight ties, Medford was on top
18 to 17. Patzke tied the game
on a free toss but Dick Rags
dale and Quinney netted push
ers for 22 to 18 Medford. Hun
saker hit one of his long
pushes but Barry tallied for
Medford off a Ragsdale feed
and it was 24 to 20.
Goes To 31-24
Taylor hemped two giflcrs.
Hunsaker and Biehn cooper
ated on a steal and Hunsaker
drove to score. Then Hun-
saker's shove shot went
through. It was 26 to 24 for
the Pelicans. A free toss by
Hunsaker, a long fielder by
Allen and a rebounder basket
by Biehn extended KF to 31
to 24. Tichenor tossed in a
gift try for Medford and Barry
a long shot and Klamath led
31 to 27 at the ha If time
buzzer.
A push from the corner, a
rebound goal and a free heave,
all by Hunsaker, a couple of
close shots by Patzke and a
charity throw by Biehn, while
Ragsdale put in a lone foul
toss for Medford, gave Klam
ath 41 to 28 command 2'4
minutes into the third quarter.
The clubs battled evenly for
foe next four minutes and KF
had margins of 43 to 30, 45 to
32, 49 to 36 and 51 to 38.
Down To Five
Then, in the last 1V4 min
utes of the panel Quinney hit
a rebounder and Barry a
jump. Quinney added a pair
of free heaves and the stand
ing for three quarters was
Klamath 51, Medford 44.
Quinney's long push with sev
en minutes left in the game
cut the spread to the five-point
difference at 51 to 46.
Two free shots by Taylor,
Biehn's bucket on a swing
across the key and Hunsaker's
driver made it 57 to 46. Quin
ney traded two free tosses for
Hunsaker's jumper then put
in a hook rebound and a long
push and the KF spread was
59 to 52 with four minutes to
play. It went to 63 to 52, how
ever, on Patzke's rebound shot
and two free shots by Hun
saker 2 Quinney and Barry
closed out the scoring for Med
ford.
While Medford could not
overtake the Pelicans in the
stretch in the varsity conflict,
the Black Tornado jayvees did
just that against their Klam
