Tornadoes Clash
At South Eugene
A 14-man squad headed for
Eugene today on Medford
high's first basketball road
trip of the season.
The Black Tornado engages
South Eugene tonight and
Saturday night at Eugene. It
will be a series matching oft
time pre-season rivals.
Coach Frank Roelandt indi
cated that the probable start
ers for tonight's game will be
Jim Hill, Jack Forde. Gibb
Mitchell, Dan Miles and Mike
Neathamer.
Others on the traveling
squad are Darryl Stockton,
Dennis Salyers, Mike Barnes,
Dick Deffley, Bill Houston,
Larry Vowell, Howard Reid,
Clint Partsafas and Jack
Lowery.
Roelandt commented that
Tornado practices have gone
better this week than they did
last week. There's been a lot
of hard work, he reported.
Quite a bit of defense has
been included in the d r i 1 1 s.
Some new wrinkles have been
added to the offense.
There has been some con
centration on ball handling
and the club has drilled
against pressing defense. Con
ditioning has continued to get
attention.
Daffley, Barnes Spark
The coach reported that
Deffley has shown good in
practices and said that Barnes
is starting to show offensive
spark.
Roelandt brought out that
the loss of Rich Benner, who
fractured his wrist last week
end, has been felt. "It really
hurt when we lost Benner,"
the mentor stated.
Reports from up South Eu
gene way are that the Axe

Prospect
Eagle Point - Eagle Point
high freshmen romped over
the Prospect junior varsity
basketballers 62 to 38 here
last night.
The Eagles, whose regulars
saw duty less than three quar
ters, had 24 to 14, 39 to 25 and
54 to 33 stanza spreads. Jun
ior Johnson of Eagle Point
and Rogers of Prospect each
had 16 points.
The Eagles took advantage
of their lead to work on new
phases of their game.

ard are on the injured list.
Roelandt hopes that the two
are back in the lineup. "We
want them at full strength,"
he remarked concerning the
Axemen. His idea is that, the
tougher the competition, the
more the games will show
how well the Black Tornado
stands. Roelandt would like to
have Pinkstaff in the SE line
up to provide tall man chal
lenge for his bigger cagers.
Only one manager, Chris
Brewer, is accompanying the
squad. The team traveled in
the cars of Roelandt, Tom
Marier, junior varsity coach,
and Tom MacLeod, KYJC
sportscaster.

2nd Base
Honor Goes
To Boiling
Cincinnati -UPU- Quick now,
who was the best fielding sec
ond baseman in the National
league this year?
If you answered Ken Hubbs
of the Chicago Cubs, you're
wrong. According to the offi
cial National league fielding
averages, this is.
The top defensive second
baseman in the circuit was
Frank Boiling of the Milwau
kee Braves with a .989 per
centage. Hubbs, who set two major
league fielding records by
handling 418 consecutive
chances and going through 78
straight games without an er
ror, wound up third among
the second basemen with a
.983 figure. Bill Mazeroski of
Pittsburgh was second with
.985.
Boiling was one of three
Milwaukee players who led
the league in fielding at his
individual position.
Adcock Tops
Joe Adcock, recently traded
by the Braves to the Cleve
land Indians, topped all first
basemen for the fourth time
in his career with a .997 aver
age, and Del Crandall of the
Braves also led the catchers
for the fourth time with a
.994 figure.
Jose Pagan of San Francis
co paced the shortstops with
a .973 average, while Don
Hoak, whom Pittsburgh re
cently traded to Philadelphia,
led the third basemen with
.969.
The finest fielding outfield
er in the league on the basis
of percentage was Tony Gon
zales of the Phillies, who han
dled 276 chances without mak
ing an error for a 1.000 figure.
Similarly, Dallas Green of
the Phillies led all pitchers
with a 1.000 percentage be
cause he handled the most
chances, 45, without an error.
Milwaukee finished first in
team fielding with a .980
mark, followed by St. Louis
with .979. The New York Mcts
were last with .967.

Oregon Stale coach Slats
Gill put his team through a
30-minute scrimmage Thurs
day and a team of substi
tutes beat the regulars 29-28.
However, Gill said he was
more concerned about the
floor play than the score.
One of the most interesting
questions in advance of the
tournament is how well Baker
will do in his first appearance.
He has had only six days to
practice but Gill said he will
be in the starting lineup to
night, along with Mel Counts,
Jim Jarvis, Frank Peters and
Steve Pauly.
