B FRIDAY. DECEMBER 21. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD. OREGON Cincinnati Adjusts To Slow-Down United Press Inltrmtional Cincinnati's top ranked Bearcats borrowed that lage old highway slogan - "slow down and live" - to keep alive the longest current win ning streak In college basket ball. Slowed down to a near walk by Dayton's tight zone and deliberate offense, the versatile Bearcats promptly switched their own style ac cordingly to flatten the Flyers 44-37 Thursday night. Although Tom T h a k e r was the high man for Cincin nati with 21 points, it was tenacious Tony Yates, with only six points, who emerged as key man in leading the Bearcats to their 25th con secutive victory dating back to last season. A crowd of 8,078 which braved a snowstorm in Cin cinnati saw Dayton's defend ing NIT champions take the lead four times during the first hall although the Bear cats, last season's NCAA champs, shot in front 18-17 one second before the inter mission. Yat Halts Flytri Yates, Cincinnati's lop de fensive player for the past two seasons, was the man be hind the stick as the Bearcats outscored the Flyers, 15-6, in the first 10 minutes of the second half to pull ahead 33 23. Repeatedly stealing the ball and bottling up Dayton's offensive maneuvers, he forc ed the Flyers to give up pos session on at least 20 differ ent occasions. The Bearcats' point total was their lowest in two sea sons but it was enough to keep them unbeaten with their seventh straight win of the campaign. Gordon Hatton led Dayton with 16 points.

Crater's Comets will en gage the Lebanon V'arriora In a renewal of a rivalry in augurated one year ago. The tonight and Saturday night series matches teams who go into the first battle ranked among 21 A-1 schools who are unbeaten so far this season. Lebanon comes with a 3-0 record. Crater has won four games. In the only prep ratings since the season started, the Comets were placed ahead of the Warriors. But, Coach Lloyd Hoffine figures his Fireballs will run into the sternest opposition they have had so far in the young cam paign. Rtal Ball Gam "We look for a real ball game," said Hoffine. "I think we will be pushed." Remark ing that teams must play tough ball clubs to be tough themselves, the coach said, "I think we'll do okeh. We've got good kids." Crater was accorded ninth ranking In the Portland Ore gonian tabulations. Lebanon ran 11th In the voting but well behind the Comets in the point totals. The poll recognized Crater as a contender in the South ern Oregon conference cam paign. Valley league coaches rate Lebanon as one of the two top bidders in their cir cuit. The other Is Corvallis. Both aggregations have good representation back from last year's clubs. Lebanon, however, will have a height edge over the quick Central Point team. Probable Starters Among the probable start ers for ihe Warriors are Ron Price, 6-4, and Dave Sturgls, 6-3. Among the other prob ables Steve Simpson is an even 6 feel, Tom Blanchat 5-10 and Bob Reynolds, 5-10. Lebanon, coached by Barney Holland has four other play ers fl feet tall or belter. Six-one is the top height among Crater players who have seen duty tills season Hoffine likely will name as his starters Howard Tomlin- son, fl-1, Paul Bransom, B feet, Pat Pepper, 5-0, Mike Glincs, 5-8, and Lou Alvarez, 5-7. Lebanon has defeated New port 60 lo 43, Oregon City 48 to 42 and Sweet Home 57 to 33. Crater has beaten Eagle Point 87 to 46, Ml. Shasta 86 to 58 and 79 to 36 and Cottage Grove 51) to 43.

Slifpniil I PnU'hiMt 7 Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank D.Vou From time to time in this column the bureau of recla mation has come under fire because of its total disregard for those values vital to con servation and recreation. It's purpose, through various en abling acts of Congress, has been the reclamation of lands for farming, either by the cre ation of reservoirs for irriga tion or by the drainage of wetlands. Because of the laws under which the bureau op- orates, Its disregard for values other than reclamation has lecn total. But now It seems th'H-1 the bureau has seen the liiiltt, though one might sus pect that its switch has been flickod by the fact that the Corps' of Engineers has been handed more federal projects due lo its inclusion of recrea tion or conservation values as worthwhile benefits. Any way, tho bureau wants to be on our side now. GOODER. MOTORS A short lima ago il was reported in ihil column that the screens a Savag Rapids dam were snid to b operat ing Ineffectively and that many thousands of young salmon jnd irtwihead war dying on thm. The Grants Pus Irrigation district claim ed that ih motc-iv operating the screens wire loo small and their consvqinenl over heating caused the itcreens to be ineffective at tim. The bureau admits lhat the motors are too small and that they are going to put iin the proper siie motors as soon as tome money can be itmind lo do the job. It appears -that because the bureau was Able lo use screens that had btrtn built for another project ,it was able to get by with spent ing only $176,000 on what we thought was a $208,000 job. The extra money was siphon ed off onto another job. Now a resiphoning Is In order. NO DOES There are some wide-awake elements in the hunting fra ternity of this fair state that are opposed to doe hunts. It is their belief that the game commission is out to destroy tne deer herds of the state and that it is their solemn duly lo try and slon the slaughter. This was sworn to in 1952 when these same peo ple claimed the deer herds in eastern Oregon were gone. And now after 10 years of the same kind of so-called slaughter the deer herds are again being proclaimed lo ex- wiituuii. ror inose wno are burdened by a good memory ii seems rainer ioolish to be able to kill deer year after year where there aren't' sup posed to be any. HOW SO? One important aunllon that is never answered varv clearly Is why the game com mission Is trying lo kill off the deer. Is it to they can manage cattle? Or is it be cause they don't likt their jobs and are picking the best way to change it? If there is an answer to the question It isn't apparent. Most of the anti-doe hunters are too busy lamenting tne imaginary pass ing of the mule deer herds to Be bothered with finding an answer. MIGHTY HUNTERS Ihe simple truth of the matter is that most of the outcry is due to a poor year in terms of hunter success. And to the veteran hunter it Is an insult lo question his hunting rather than to blame il on the deer that aren't sup posed to be there. Is it be cause more and more hunters preier the road to the woods, and it's difficult to find hunt ers unless one crosses an ac cess road? A constant sound in hunting counlrv is that of cars and pickups slowly grind ing up and down the roads. Yea. they are mighty hunters. r-HLUltTlONS The gam commission or. dicld a poor year because of winter kill and it predicts mor winter kill until the herd numbers are in balanc with th availabl food sun- ply.
