That is just one report con
cerning the Japanese high
school wrestling champions
who oppose Medford Black
Tornado grapplers on Tues
day night.
The match will be at 8 p.m.
at Hedrick Junior High
school gym.
The eight national cham
pions from Japan are near
the end of a tour of Oregon
which started in the Portland
area earlier this month.
"They put on a tremendous
show and are well worth
watching" and "they do look
like wrestlers" are other com
ments. Tentative Pairings

tive pairings for the bouts
here:

Mike Horton. 123.

from Reedsport yssterday,
where he was with the Med
ford team, that he's heard the
Japanese have found the
month - long tour a strenuous
one. It, however, has not af
fected their wrestling.

Ashland - C r a t e r high's
Comets flashed their competi
tive hearts and flared up in
the second half with all the
fire and skill they could mus
ter here Friday night to spurn
the basketball upset ambitions
of the Ashland Grizzlies.
The Fireballs erasing a nine
point deficit in the third quar
ter and sizzling in front In the
fourth, blazed into first place
in the Southern Oregon con
ference standings by beating
the Bruins 64 to 53. '
Ashland outhustled and out
fought the Comets in the first
half, And, as the third panel
got underway, the Bruins
seemed to get established on
their way to a first conference
victory since 1959. Then the
Comets, profitting on three
fast breaks and two corner
shots and boomed back into
contention.
Crater, 4-1 after squelching
the Ashlanders was elevated
into the circuit leadership by
half a game when Klamath

four men 'in battling to vic
tory. Howard Tomlinson gath
ered 18, Mike Glincs 15, Pat
Pepper 14 and Lou Alvarez
13. Tomlinson cleared off 17
rebounds and Paul Bransom
10.
Ashland, too, had four in
doubles, Jim Lamb and Tod
Hess each with 11 and Dale
Tepper and Rick Pierce with
10 apiece. Lamb snagged 13
rebounds, Tepper 11 and Mike
Cotton nine.
The teams were tied 6-all
after one quarter. At the half
Ashland had a margin of 30
to 27. Count was 41-each going
into the closing stanza.
Pierce, Howard Johnson
and Tepper goaled in the first
1V4 minutes of the third quar
ter for the nine-point Ashland
spread ot 36 to 27. But, Al
varez ficldered on a fast break
with Bransom feeding. Glines
followed on an assist by Al
varez. And, Glines cashed in
again on a pass from Bran
som. Alvarez was fouled on
his bucket and Glincs on one
of his and made three-point
plays of their scores. The gap
was narrowed to 36 to 35. A
Pepper push from a corner
put Crater on top 38 to 37. .
Ran Up 14 to 3
Lamb, with some elaborate
footwork got in close and re
stored the lead to Ashland.
Alvarez put in a corner basket
and drove the base deitly tor
another goal. Crater headed
41 to 38. Pierce tossed in a gift
point and Lamb scored off an
Ashland rebound for the 41-
all count.
In 4'2 minutes of the fourth
period, Crater ran up 14
points while Ashland was get
ting three for a 55 to 44 com
mand. Tomlinson collected
four baskets in the splurge as
the Fireballs showed some
stellar teamwork. He tabu
lated twice on asists from Al
varez, once on aid from Glines
and rebounded for one goal.
Pepper swished a long push in
the opening seconds of the
quarter to put the Comets "in
front for keeps and he capped
the splurge with a swipe and
solo goal.
Cut To Six
Ashland sliced the Comet
margin to six points at 59 to
53 with a minute to go but
Crater tucked away the tangle
with a free heave by Pepper
and two driver baskets by
Tomlinson.
After 55 to 44. Cotton threw
in a giftcr and Dale Tepper
two of them for 55 to 47.
Glincs countered with a buck
et on a worked in shot but
Gale Tepper came back with
a long turning jumper. Two
free throws by Glincs were
1 matched by Hess for 59 to 51.
Then Howard Johnson
hemped a long push shot.
There were six tie scores
and two lead switches In the
: early going of the fracas. Aft
er a 12-all knot. Ashland went
I on top 18 to 12 on two free
! shots each by Lamb and
Pierce and a rebound basket
by Lamb. Darryl Summerfield
hit a gift point for the Comets
! but a Pierce shot oft of a
; Lamb rebound gave the Grizz- jif'd
lies a seven point difference
at 20 to 13.
Comets Comt Back
Crater came back up on sin
gle free markers by Bransom
and Glines two by Pepper
plus a tipin by Bransom to cut
the Ashland lead to 20 to 19
but they could not overtake
the Bruins in the remaining
part of the second panel. Ash-
lana went back to five points
at 28 to 23. Dale Tepper put in
two rebounders and Dean
Samuelson and Hess goaled.
while Tomlinson and Pepper
scored tor Crater
Ashland dominated the first
half by playing good defense,
outrebounding Crater and
beating the Comets to the
ball. The Grizzly defenders
choked or blocked Comet
close In tries and the Fireballs
in the early going. could not
hit from outside. Ashland's
work under the boards gave
the Lithia city lads extra
shooting opportunities while
limiting Crater to single
chances.
Crater netted only one field
bucket in the first quarter and
made just six out of 23 tries
in the opening half while Ash'
land hit 10 for 28.
Vibrated
The Comets came out in the
second half with more blaze
and "They . really started to
vibrate," said Coach Lloyd
Hoffine. Those fast break bas
kets seemed to open up the
contest for their running game
and their shooting percentage
improved with the better op
portunities. They were more
successful in the battle be
neath the boards. Pepper
made some crucial defensive
retrieves with good placement
in the final minutes.
Crater shot 21 of 59 from
the field for .356 and Ashland
18 of 55 for .327. Coach
George Keil's Ashlanders had
the backboard edge for the
full game 43 to 39.
Ashland lost Hess and
Pierce on fouls. Bransom had
four infractions charged
against him in the first half
but the 6-1 eager, who was not
feeling well, weathered the
second half until relieved in
the final moments by Willie
Jones.
