Central Point- The come-from-back-in-the-pack
surge of
the Medford Black Tornado in
Southern Oregon conference
basketball was continued
here Friday night in a down to
the buzzer scramble.
Mcdford's forward edging
cagers squeezed by Crater
high's recalcitrating Comets
61 to 59 to pull even with the
Fireballs in the District 6 A-2
standings. It was the fourth
slraight win-the second in a
row by a whisker-for the
Hurricanes.
The two clubs, wrapping up
the third of four rounds in
the circuit, shared second
place with 7-5 records behind
the 8-4 of the Cavemen of
Grants Pass.
Jack Forde of Medford flip
ped a jumper from the circle
with 2:57 on the clock for a
bucket which broke the last
of the game's nine deadlocks.
And, the Tornado then, in
intense rugged final moments
playing control ball when it
had possession fought hard
and weathered the rally ef
forts of the Comets.
Shots Miss
With 2:33 left Medford's
Dan Miles missed a free toss
chance. Crater rebounded and
Mike Glincs' driver failed to
go in for the Central Pointers.
A rebound try also missed.
With 1:23 to go. Paul Bran
som missed a free shot for the
Comets and Forde retrieved
the falling ball for Medford.
Crater's Pat Pepper inter
cepted a Medford pass but his
teammate, Lou Alvarez, was
whistled for offensive charg
ing, giving Medtord the ball
out-of-bounds. With 10 seconds
on the clock the Tornado's
Dich Benncr had a pair of
free shot chances but made
neither. With four seconds
left Miles had a gift oppor
tunity and also missed.
As the horn sounded Pepper
let fly a long, long try for the
hoop. The ball was over the
backboard.
Except for a Medford
splurge to a 10-point gap at
the outset of the second half,
it was a close fought tussle.
And, for the most part it was
well-played by both clubs with
the first half particularly hav
ing firey offensive tone. There
were nine lead switches along
with the ties in the ruckus.

Larry Vowell with 13 headed
the Black Tornado scoring but
the Comets' Howard Tomlin
son was high marker man
with 23 for the evening.
Crater was on top at the
quarter 16 to 14, Medford at
the half 38 to 36 and Crater
after three cantos 52 to 49.
As the second half got un
derway, it appeared that the
Tornadoes would take full
control. Jim Hill scored off
a Forde assist. Vowell, wide
open, hit a jumper from mid
range. Dan Miles goaled from
the side of the circle and
Forde followed with a push
from similar range. Score was
46 to 36 with less than two
minutes played in the third
quarter.
The Fireballs then got the
aid of free tosses to pull back
even with the Whirlwind. Af
ter Neil Rivenburg put in two
free heaves and Bransom one
and Forde hit from the side
of the slot the score was 48
to 39. Then, Tomlinson can
ned a field goal and gift toss
and Pepper a brace of charity
heaves for 48 to 44.
Tomlinson hemped a re
bound shot and sank a long
push try for a 48-all tie with
1:52 to go in the quarter.
Pepper netted a jumper off a
break to put the Comets on
top 50 to 48. Forde got a foul
shot for Medford but Riven
burg hit from the side for
Crater's three-point intermis
sion span.
Forde hit a jump shot for
Medford and Lou Alvarez a
free point for Crater. Then
Mike Neathamer sank a jump
from the circle side for a knot
of 53 each. Two Neathamer
free shots put Medford in
front again. Vowell roped a
wriggling layup for 57 to 55.
Alvarez goaled for Crater and
Benner for Medford for 59 to
55.
Crater got back even on
Tomlinson's two free tosses
and Alvarez's long push for
59-alI with 3:07 yet to play.
Seconds later Forde got
Medford's final goal.
First half was real nip and
tuck. Score was knotted three
times in the first quarter.
Crater moved to a 13 to 8
spread then the margin was
two and four points until
Forde hit a turning jumper
for 18-all. The Comets went
top again on Pepper's free
shot. Five quick lead switch
es followed as a Hill bucket

Arroyo Appears
Ready for Post
United Press International
The old baseball belief of
"never bet against the
Yankees" already looks like
the best advice of 1963 for
American league fans and
spring training is only a few
days old.
Not that they needed any
extra help, but it appears now
that the world champons can
count on Luis Arroyo to take
his accustomed spot in the
bullpen this season.
Arroyo, the portly Puerto
Rican who helped the Yan
kees win the AL pennant in
1961, hardly pitched at all
last year after developing
calcium deposits in his left
elbbw. In fact, he pitched a
total of only 34 innings,
which included only a couple
of short stints after the All
Star games.
Thursday's the likeable
"quiet man" of the Yankee
relief corps threw hard dur
ing a workout for battcryman
at Fort Laudcdalc, Fla., and
predicted his arm miseries are
a thing of the past.
"If it stays like this, I've
got nothing to worry about,"
Arroyo said jubilantly. "I am
confident I'll be able to help
the club this year."

Giant Success
Seen Expensive
Phoenix, Ariz. -(UPP- The
penalty for success is going to
cost the San Francisco Giants
a gold-digger's fortune this
year.
There is talk in the spring
training camps that before
everybody is signed, the Na
tional league champions will
have the highest payroll in
the history of baseball - with
the possible exception of the
New York Yankees.
The infield is going to cost
the Giants about $100,000;
the outfield better than $200,
000; the "big four" pitching
staff will go over $100,000.
And the catching about $50,
000. That adds up to $450,000
without all the reserves, re
lief pitchers, pinch hitlers,
etc., who will bring the total
well past the $600,000 mark.
This is exclusive of manager
Alvin Dark, who also is in the
high income bracket.
