A spokesman for the district attorney's office said that players here for the Madison Square Garden tournament as well as "others" would be met at undisclosed locations to dig for more evidence in the gambling fixes which detec tives said dwarfed the 195'1 scandals. The DA's office, however. refused to identify any of the persons facing questioning on grounds the players would be more willing -to cooperate if they were not named in public. Two men have been arrest ed in connection with the fixes, which operated by Bribing players to "shave points on their team's score, providing the gamblers with a winning margin. Aaron Wag- man, 28, and Joseph Hacken, 41, Doth ot New York, were picked up last week. The DA's office said the bribes involved many colleges in many states and a "good number" of players. Except for Seton Hall and the Uni versity of Connecticut, how ever, no colleges have been named. 1-iAHOrf 20. 13G1 HAR-MAH NINTH Detroit -IUPD- The Har-Mar Printing team of West Allis, Wis., moved into ninth place in the Classic division stand ings at the American Bowling Congress tournament Sunday night with a 5666 total. The Har-Mar team totaled 2810 pins in its second appearance after a 2856 opening series Saturday for the only team change in the top ten team standings over the week end. Fanfare By DICK JEWETT Mail Tribunt Sportl Editor The BOWLERS ALLEY By DARIENE AND BILL TOPE Medford High School Head Basketball Coach Frank Roe landt praised his Black Tor nado charges Saturday night for four tremendous high can- ber efforts in the Oregon Class A-l prep basketball tournament at Eugene. "I've never had a club," he said, "that played the four championship games in a toup nament that this club has." They were efforts that made Medford a surprise ag gregation to many at the 43rd annual cage extravaganza. Roelandt expressed the feel ing that his crew was deserv ing of the title although it came out second best. "They (Klamath Falls and Medford) both deserve the champion ship. It's a shame it could not be a tie," the mentor said. Told of Klamath Coach Dean White's praise of the Tornado, Roelandt responded with words of respect for White and the champion Pols. "He's got a terrific ball club," remarked the Medford tutor. "Medford is a good ball team," said White. "The way we played tonight, we could have beaten a lot of other good clubs by much bigger scores." COACH OF YEAR "Ragsdale and Quinncy are great," White declared of Medford's two all -staters. "And Roelandt is a great coach," he stated, referring to the way the Tornado men tor developed his team and brought it along to a season end peak and to a tourney powerhouse. "Roelandt should It's Closer Than You Think P3 'Ar'V YES . . . Before you know it, spring will be here . . . grass will be growing . mowings necessary!

Medford's defense in the clutch also drew plaudits from White. "Ragsdale and Barry stole the ball and made our guards look bad." Roelandt mentioned that it wasn't until after the Tornado started coming on following its loss to Grants Pass that he felt he had a possible state championship club. The Big Wind established itself as a tourney darkhorse when it thumped the Pelicans in the last game of the season after losing three previous games to the loop champs who are the new state titleholdcrs. Then, it really kicked up, a storm of interest and backing as a title possibility when it displayed aggressive, crowd ing defense, an offense that could both free wheel and work effectively against set defense and a never-say-die spirit as a team that wouldn't quit. BEST OF YEAR Said Klamath Falls' Bruce Brickner when asked if he felt his game against Med ford in the Al hoop tour ney final was the best of the tournament: "It was my best of the year." Concerning the c h a m pionship he said, "I still can't believe it. I'm in a daze." CLEARING HOUSE SUGGESTED "Something ought to be done about it. Some system ought to be worked out." So declared a Medford high basketball fan Saturday morn ing at Eugene. He was talk ing about the demand for tick ets for the Medford-Klamath Falls A-l championship game and the unavailability of those admission cardboards. What he had in mind is some sort of clearing house to enable fans to get tickets which would otherwise go un used on the final night of the annual prep tournament. It's known that a good number of fans head for home when their teams lose out before the final night of action. Some of these people take their tick ets with them. It's felt, perhaps, these tick ets could be turned back for some cash consideration for repurchase by persons inter ested in the championship contest. Seats would thereby not go empty and at least a number of persons would not miss the chance to see their teams in action. BRISK DEMAND Said one sporlswriter, "How about going into the business!" There's certainly a brisk demand for tickets for final night. We've noted that on the Saturday's we've been on hand for the champion ship game," said a Medford ile last Saturday. "I've had 23 calls for tickets this morning." ANDERSON ON COVER It took us four days at the tournament to notice some thing. We gave a real hard look at the cover of the tour nament guide. It shows Med ford's 1960 all-stater Jerry Anderson going up for a layup in one of last year's tourney games. Bob Quinney, back with this year's team and earner of all-state recognition, is looking on. The action was in the Jesuit game. REBOUND MARK TOPPED Medford's 213 rebounds for the 1961 Class A-l hoop affair betters the record of 210 established by Baker high in 195S. The 77 against Tillamook broke mark of 71 by McMinnville against Redmond in 1957. BAND PLAYS ANTHEM Medford high school's band, under the direction of I. A. Mirick, played the "Star Spangled Banner" to open the final night of the state bas ketball tourney. OSC Coach Named School Registrar !

'fi This is a glass of unusual whisky. It is Schenlcy. Its extraordinary smoothness is the result of the greatest advance in whisky making in twenty-five years. Taking the same fine whiskies always reserved for Schenley, we now put them through a costly new step. In this exclusive step the whiskies are whirled in a specially designed vat by stainless steel blades and literally whipped into a smoothness never before attainable. This unique process breaks down each drop of the fine whiskies and grain neutral spirits into its smallest possible components and then "marries" them more thoroughly than ever before. The result can only be realized by tasting Schenley whisky. We think you'll agree: smoothness in a whisky has now taken on a completely new meaning. So start enjoying Schenley, the only whisky with extra smoothness whipped in I ISxhcnleq tit BKNKHVK Ji) tf jrchml(i m Si lit i si ri ni ,irJ Fifth MaWJ Pint Ctide 2.)5H Code 255C
