' Note to those who might
have abandoned hope on the
Southern Oregon conference
basketball chances of the
Black Tornado:
Mcdford high's Twisters of
the maplecourt have NOT giv
en up on themselves. While
there's life there's hope and
the Big Wind is still lively
In the race.
The Tornadoes showed that
they were but definitely still
"in it" Saturday night by
mastering the Grants Pass
Cavemen in the Climate City
to the west. Medford snapped
what had been called "Cave
man domination" by 51 to 44.
It was the first hoop triumph
for Medford over GP in six
successive league tilts.
. Victory gave the Medfords,
who beat Ashland Friday, a
break-even, standing in the
conference at .5-5, And, al
though the Tornado still is
running fourth, its second tri
umph of the week end left it
Just 1V4 games back of the
loop leading Crater (6-3) Com-
GP Leads Briefly
Grants Pass, bidding Satur
day for at least a share of
leadership, was held in third
spot at 5-4, just a half-game
ahead of Medford. In the bat
tle for one of two places in
the state tourney from Dis
trict 6 A-l, the Tornado is
Just one game back of second
place Klamath Falls (6-4) with
six games yet to play.
' Except for a brief period
in the middle third canto,
Medford led throughout its
Saturday ruckus. In the final
panel the Tornado erected -a
10-point span. This was too
much in the spirited final 2'2
minutes for the Cavemen to
overcome as Medford turned
to a control game and Grants
Pass fought desperately for
possession of the ball.
Jack Forde with 12 and
Jim Hill , and Dick Deffley,
each with 11, were Medford's
main point getters. Deffley, a
non-starter, picked up all of
his counters in the second half
when' they were needed to
spurn the GP rally efforts.
Hill cleared boards 14 times
and Forde on 12 occasions as
the Tornadoes and the Cave
men about matched pace In
rebound play,
Shspard Ties
. Bob Shepard totaled 13
markers for Grants Pass and
Al Hutchins had 12 along with
13 board retrieves.
Grants Pass, which suffer
ed its first loss in three games
with Medford this season, first
tied up the fracas on rebound
basket by Shepard two min
utes into the second half for
26-all. A minute and a quar
ter later Hutchins netted from
the free line for 27 to 26 edge.
Deffley knotted the game
at the gift line and four min
utes into the half Dan Miles'
long jumping pusher gave
Medford 29 to 27 nod. Hutch
ins countered with a long push
basket to tie the tray at 29
but with 3 Vit minutes left in
the quarter Forde plunked a
driver for Tornado margin of
31 to 28. The Pear city crew
headed the rest of the way.
Quarter tallies were 18 to
11, 25 to 21 and 41 to 36.
Hutchlns hemped a pusher
In the opening seconds of the
fourth period to cut the dif
ference to three points. But
another of Miles' long shots
and Defflcy's push from the
corner made it 45 to 30. Jim
Pippin of GP exchanged free
shots with Miles. Hutchins
came up with a gifter but
Deffley i long poke establish
ed 48 to 40 with three min
utes remaining in the mix.
Miles' driver looped in un
derhand, that brought the 10
point spread at 50 to 40.
Hutchins' two free points
reduced the difference to eight
with 2:11 on the clock.
Medford turned to keep
away. With 1:26 to go Gibb
Mitchell lost the ball on a
violation. Forde, reaching
with his long arms Intercept
ed the ball for Medford but
Tom Sparlin and Shepard
tied up Deffley. The ball went
out' of bounds on the jump,
It was ruled Forde touched it
and GP took possesion,
Wtih 38 seconds to go Pip
pin put in a drive-in goal.
With 24 remaining Hill was
fouled and missed his shot
but with 13 to go got another
chance and made the first of
two for the game's final point.
Nine Point Gaps
Shepard had one more
shooting opportunity for GP
before the game was over,
Medford saw two early
leads of nine points erased
First gap that big was when
a Forde shot from the side of
the slot made the count 20 to
11, GP cut it to five points
on Pippin's fast break goal
and on a Lyman Keisccker

driver. But Hill hit a Jumper
from the side and scored on
a fast break for 24 to 15 mar
gin. i
The Cavemen used tallies
by Keisecker, Shepard and
Lindquist to close the span to
24 to 21. Rich Benner's free
heave completed the first half
scoring.
GranU Pass used a Shepard
free shot and his basket on a
break to challenge the Tor
nado as the second half be
gan. Forde put in a Tornado
free point and Shepard pop
ped in his tying bucket.
After Forde gave Medford
the lead for good at 31 to 29,
a Hill rebound and Deffley
pusher made it 35 to 29. But,
the scrap was narrowed to 35
to 34 on Glenn Scott's gifter
and Shepard and Rcddick
goals. Hill turned in the key
and drove for two points and
Hutchlns responded with a
long range goal. It was 37 to
36. Two free tallies and a goal
by Deffley made it 41 to 36.
Grants Pass worked the ball
better at times but Medford
did better from the field and
defensively checked the Cave
men from all but the one sus
tained rally effort. The Tor
nadoes roped 20 field goals
at .408 firing rate, compared
to the Cavemen's 16 at .372.
The Climate city club, how
ever, did better on Its fewer
opportunities at the free heave
line, making 12 of 16 chances
to Medford's 11 of 25.
Grants Pass had 36 to 35
rebound edge.
Although Medford and GP
have met three times, Satur
day's game was the first
chance for Benncr of the Tor
nado to play against, his for
mer Caveman teammates. The
steady player, who bolsters
Medford with his height, miss
ed the two previous scrapes
because of his broken wrist.
Hill, who has been plagued
by fouls this season, was in
there at the finish Saturday.

Palmer was to go to the tee
today in an attempt to win an
unprecedented third consecu
tive Phoenix Open Golf cham
pionship - weather permitting.
The fourth round of the
$33,000 event was scheduled
to be played Sunday, but a
combination of rain, wind and
hail swept over the Arizona
Country Club course in mid
afternoon, cancelling all
scores.
For some it was a tough
break, for others it may mean
money in the bank.
Palmer had a 54-hoIe total
of 203 strokes-the same num
ber he had when he teed off
Sunday. He went only two
holes before the storm broke
and was even par.
But Gary Player, who had
started the day one shot be
hind him with 204, had fin
ished four holes and was two
under par, and theoretically
in the tournament lead. Jack
Nicklaus, winner of the Palm
Springs classic last week, also
was even par for the two
holes he played Sunday. He is
tied with Player.

Newspaper Advertising Scores
More Sales than Other Media
The nation's local advertisers invested $2.7 billion in newspapers last year.
That's six times as much as they spent in radio, nine times as much as in TV,
three times as much in newspapers as in all other major media combined I
Herman C. Nolen, president of McKesson & Kobbins, Inc., puts it this
way: "We at McKesson feel that if you place an advertisement in a news
paper the result is-something happens. You get action."
If you want action, if you want results - use the daily newspaper.
