Medford, Crater
Friday Hoop Foes
In SO Conference
Southern Oregon confer
ence basketball rolls to the
halfway mark this week end.
Four combats on this
week's program will find the
Crater high Comets fighting
to retain their league leader
ship, Klamath Falls battling
to go back on top, Grants Pass
ambitious to grab a share of
the lead, Mcdford determined
to battle back into the victory
column and Ashland still
contending for the first vic
tory. Occupying the main atten
tion on tile local scene is the
Friday night ruckus at Hed
rick court here between the
Mcdford Black Tornado and
the Crater Cornels.
Both teams also have Sat
urday night cngHgc m c n t s,
Medford at Ashland and Cra
ter at Klamath Falls. The
week end's other billing Is
Ashland at Grants Puss tomor
row night.
Netdi Both
Mcdford is 2-4 in the league
standings and desper a t c I y
needs to win both game if It
is lo enter the second half of
play a contender for confer
ence honors. Crater, at the
top of the loop, is 5-1 and its
win-loss record for the full
season of 12-1 ranks with the
best among A-l schools In the
talc.
The Whirlwinds of Medford
are Imping that, at least for
this Friday's game, that the
1963 pattern will be different
from that of last campaign.
For, last season the Comets
and the Black Tornado divid
ed 2-2 with each winning on
the other's floor. This will be
the second scuffle between
the two schools In the current
race. Crater was victor in
the initial scrap at Central
Point.
A close game looms as pos
sible on Friday. The early
January embroilment was a
close humdinger of a tussle
In which Crater went ahead
for keeps at the outset of the
final quarter.
Already To Go
Mcdford's Black Tornado is
already to go, Coach Frank
Tlnclandl said last evening.
He reported good spirit on
the iiquad and a lot of drive
and hustle.
The tutor stated that the
Tornadoes have been working
against zone defense, drilling
on different ways lo attack it.
At the same time they've been
keeping up on the offense
against man-toman defense.
He indicated plans lo stay
Willi pretty mtuh the same
lineup he has been using and
said that the Medfovds have
been taking it fairly easy.
Mike Nralhamer was away
from Monday and Tuesday
drills becam-c of a cold and
was back for a light work
out yesterday.
IWIandt said that Rich
Bonner, who has been wear
ing a plaster cast to protect
the wrist he broke in Decem
ber, was slated to put on
smaller fiberglass cast today.
Work on Break
"When you're winning, you
don't change, ' Coach Lloyd
1 lof fine commented on this
weck'i preparations. But he
has had his charges working
pretty hard. He said. "We've
been working on our break."
At the start of the week,
Hoffinc remarked that the
Comets needed lo take at least
one of their week end scuffles
against a pair of tough foes.
Naturally, the Comets will
try lo grab victories in both.
The Crater mentor reported
that his squad, as of yester
day evening was intact. Ex
cept for some colds, every
body was hcullhy.
Mcdford crushed Ashland
by 44 points the last time the
two teams met. Grants Pass
also beat the Orizzlics handily
in the first engagement. But
neither GP nor Medford an
ticipates a pushover this time
in the respective tangles with
the Lilhia city lads.
Crater, which tipped Klam
ath in overtime before, will
encounter an improved Peli
can team.
Junior varsity and varsity
games will be contested on
both nights. Here on Friday
the jayvecs will vie at Hed
rick and the sophs at the
senior high both al 6:30 p.m.
On Saturday al Ashland sophs
are to meet al 3 p.m. and
jayvecs al 6:30 p.m.
Medford high's wrestling
aggregation turns from for
eign visitors back to South
ern Oregon conference rivals
this week end.
The Black Tornado goes to
Central Point on Friday eve
ning to oppose Crater and to
Grants Pass on Saturday.
Activity at Central Point
is billed for 6:30 p.m. and
that at GP for 1:30 p.m. Cra
ter has just the one match
litis week end,
Medford again will have
no one at the 08-pound weight
this week. At 106-pounds Jim
Marrs likely will wrestle at
least on Friday because Rod
Smith has a cold.
Graten Earns Spot
Fred Graten is slated to
hold down the chores at 148.
Frank Williams, who has
been the man at the weight,
is recuperating from illnesit
and Graten moved up from.
141 to beat out Tom Oilman
for the job.
Since Jeff Hardwrath has
an infection on the back of
his head, Brian Petersen
could get the heavyweight
call.
The Japanese nations
champs of 1062 downed Med
ford 24 to 7 on Wednesday.
Mcdford defeated Crater 30
to 1 1 in December and Grants
Pass downed Medford 35 to

into the $45,OU0-chiss, making
him the highest-paid pitcher
and second highest-paid play
er in club history, while

rine, also unbeaten, in one
of the most explosive displays
of mat knowledge this season.
Botli men were reluctant to
take the aggressive side until
the other had showed his
hand, leaving the first period
without a score. But in the
second round they came to
life and in the scramble Smith
gained an escape from his
down position at the begin
ning of the round. In the
third and final round Smith
gained only one point -n an
escape with Crumrine gaining

10-4 record, rates as the fav

set for' Friday and Saturday,
