2 B WEDNESDAY. siPdDninrs Fanfare Now that the Ashland high Grizzlies have won a Southern Oregon conference basketball game. Just how much has it whetted their appetite for more? ! That's a question other loop members are asking. The Bruins no doubt relish ed their taste and are eager for other bites. Their victory over Medford last Saturday hould bolster their confi dence and make them tougher in the District 6 A-l chase. While some amazement wan expressed at the Ashland tri umph, a lot of hoop followers Just knew that eventually the Lithians would come up with a win. Rivals Just hoped it would happen to one of the other teams. Another question Is; "Who's next?" ASHLAND COULD BE KEY Ashland is not mathemaiic allv out of contention, buit till chances of the Griiiliei, or aren prospects for a slat tournev berth, are faint. Yet, as on coach mentioned last week, how Ashland faras over the rest of tha rout could wall determine just who tha confaranca's tournament rep resentatives will ba. SKY BLUER Glen Prescott in his Press Box column in the Ashland Tidings commented Monday that "fjr the community, the sky is just a shade bluer to day, the sun a little brighter." Said Prescott: "Seldom if ever has the winning of a basketball game meant as much as the Grlz ilies' win over the Medford Black Tornado here Saturday night bringing to an end a four year drought in confer ence victories. "There are those who will pass it off as just another bas ketball game, but to the Ash land high Grizzlies, the stu dent body, the faculty and to the majority of the townspeo ple it was much, much more than just a successful con clusion to an athletic en deavor. "To the Grizzlies them selves, the victory over a tra- . ditional and worthy nemesis was an accomplishment in it- aelf of considerable magni tude, but what was more im portant was the victory over themselves. The potential of Ashland high athletic teams has almost always been great er than their win-loss record indicates, and many times, too many in fact, games have been Inst because of a defeat ist attltde . . . But this year, the birth of a new spirit was in evidence from the very start." NO PATSY In furthtr comment, Pres cott remarki: "In one way lha Crlsilias will find tha going a bit easier in that they now know lhay have what it takes, and this regained confidence will help lham ovar tha numaroua rough spots In tha road ahaad, but on the Cher hand, no Southern Oregon confaranca team is apt to comider tha Bears as a pstiy. It's hard to say whsthar the Tornado ware a bit complacent about Sat urday night's game or not, but you can bat they'll ba out for blood next Friday- when the Bears play a return match at Medford . . ." Tha victory last Saturday could mark the turning point in the Ashland school's ath letic history, Prescott ven tured. YANKED ON RUG The Tidings' gome story, presumably by Prescott, de clares that the Bruins "most delectable" verdict "Just about pulled Hie rug out from Under any conference title aspirations the Tornado might Step-O-Mltic Brake Linino In trailed en !l 4 Wheals WHILE YOU WAIT!

HARD PULL The Black Tornado certain ly is still in the running. But, it will be a hard pull even to achieve second place which would earn a aiate tourney berth. Of course, there's no easy going for any club in the loop this year. From the way the race has gone so far, the two clubs which represent this district in the stale tour ney will have eernad it. Current leader Klamath Fails has just a one game mar gin over Crater end Grants Pass which are tied for sec ond and those two are two games in front of Medford with eight to play. And don't forget that Ashland may have a big hand in deciding which teams will make the trip, FRIDAY WARNING The Bruins sounded one of their warnings last Friday when Grants Pass held them off 61 to 35. GP cracked a 37-all tie to go ahead for good But, Ashland stayed within striking distance up to the last half-mlnute. Said the Grants Pass Cour ier: "Many of the fans . . . thought the time had come, but they (the Grizzlies) did not quite make it , . ." FIXED FEELINGS Sixty-two personal fouls in ball game and a technical infraction (it happened in the Grants. Ashland game) can cause mixed emotions. Said the Courier Saturday: The players would be first to say that it wasn't their best ball game and the fana would be the first to say thai 62 fouls plus a technical makes the game long and drawn out. and the coaches remarked aft erward that the officials call ed a good game, keeping on top of every play," WELL-GENERALED Coach Fred Spiegel berg should have a well-generaled State team in the Shrine all- star football game at Portland in August, what with three of the state's top quarterbacks of last season performing in Paul Brothers, Rosoburg Mike Glines, Crater, and Dan Miles, Medford. FINE ARRAY The State squad represents a fine array of talent with ends Lloyd Hammons, Mad ford, and Bob Shepard, Grants Pass, with tackles Earl Back man, Willamette and Doug John, Roseburg, and defens ive stalwarts Gary Griffin, Medford, Ron Hitchcock, Klamath Falls, and Andy Graham, Grants Pais, to name a few. We look again for State to be given the role of favorite in the clash with Metro, Graham's name slipped by us Monday whan we were go ing over the all-star list. So did the name of Neal Ellis, Butte Fells. Ellis was named an alternate tor the East-Wast Shrine game at Pendleton. NEW NAME An Associated Press story has brought up a new name for pole vaulters - "catapul- tlsts." TIME SCHEDULE PROBLEM Willamette's three overtime win over South Eugene brings up the question ot how over time games will affect state tourney time schedules now that the sudden death rule has been eliminated. Ot course, extended overtime games are expected to be rare, Seals Challenge rortiand Team United Press International The San FrBnctson Seals, who trailed Portland by 13 points less than four weeks ago, can close the gap to one point If !! can dump the j Bucks In a big Western Hoc i key league tussle at Portland ionljjht. The rampaging San Fran j cist-nuns played their 12th j straight without a loss when j they somehow pulled out a i 5-4 overtime win at Vancouv i cr Tuesday night. The standings Jhii. 13 shov i ed Portland ahead of Los An- j gcles had Sun Francisco by 13 points apiece, ban F rancisco s record stood at 19-18-0 Thai 16 hiss figure was un changed today as the Seals boast a 30-16-1 mark. Portland Is 31-14-2. The Seals seemed doomed Tuesday night as Vancouver moved out In front 4-3 with seven minutes to go. But Or. land Kurtenbach blinked the red light at 17:47 and then veteran Len llulcy hit the clincher at 1:41 of the extra stanza in a three-way power play which saw Ray Cyr an.l Al Nicholson gel assists. ju-fetfv ij -JZk, U '!'
