Crater High Principal Ar
thur Straus, president of the
Southern Oregon conference,
said that the league minutes
will be searched to determine
whether there is anything in
them concerning how a tie is
to be resolved should teams
be deadlocked for a berth in
the state A-l tournament.
He stated that nothing has
been said among the schools
so far as he's heard this season
and that he does not recall
the matter having come be
fore a conference meeting in
past seasons. Otherwise, he
said, if a tie looms, it's a mat
ter of conference officials get
ting together.
Of course, there is no prob
lem if Just two teams tie for
first place. However, If more
than that number tie at the
top, or, if two or more knot
for second, some playoff ar
rangement will have to be
made.
THINKING ALIKE
Frank HotUndi, Medford
basketball mentor, Indicated
to the Linebackers last Fri
day the reason why the Black
Tornado has started to come
on:
"We're all starting to think
alike, which makes a winning
combination,"
Medford has won Its lati
three In a row.
Coach Lloyd Hoffine, of
Crater high's Comets, has de
clared that It's "do or die" for
his basketball fireballs this
week end. The co-league lead
ers are hosts to Medford on
Friday and Klamath Falls on
Saturday.
In discussing preparations
for games last week, Hoffine
said, "We look for a tough
week end." Then he added
words to the effect that "next
week end will be even
tougher."
CRATER BALCONY
OPENED
The north balcony in the
Crater high gym was opened
to basketball fans last week
and folding chairs were used
by fans. Principal Btraus said
that present plans are to have
bleachers on the balcony for
the Medlord and Klamath
garnet this week. The Crater
gym thereby would iccommo.
dale some 300 more people.
The gym has almost burst at
the teams because of the large
crowds this season.

coma Courteers, the group of

ters. They performed at Cen
tral Point last year. They'll be

Ring Title
Retained
By Moyer
Honolulu - (UPD - Denny
Moyer, 153 4, used superior
boxing skill and an effective
left jab Tuesday night to
punch out a unanimous deci
sion over home town hero
Stan Harrington, 151'i, and
retained his world junior mid
dleweight championship.
There were no knockdowns
in the 15-round bout watched
by a near capacity crowd of
5,085 at Pacific Auditorium.
But Moyer, of Portland, Ore.,
earned the nod by coming
back strongly in the late
rounds after a slow start.
Harrington, a veteran of 59
fights and considered the is
lands' greatest fighter since
Bobo Olson, started out
though he might topple the
defending champ.
Tide Turns
The 29-year-old Hawaiian
used a sharp left uppercut to
dominate the action and pile
up the points in the early
stanzas. But the tide slowly
turned after the seventh
round when Harrington tired
visibly and Moyer's steady
jabbing found Its mark.
Referee Louis Freitas scop
ed the fight 72-69 for the
champion, Judge Walter Cho
called it 74-68, and referee
John Medeiros saw it 71-69
UPI had it 70-68.
The crowd greeted the de
cision with a chorus of boos
It was the fifth successful
title defense by the busy Moy
er since winning the title from
Joey Giambra last October
His over-all record stands at
39-8.
Harrington has a 48-11 rec
ord. He weighed 1 5 1 Vi .
