Grants Pass Quint
Here This Evening
Medford high's Black Tor
nado fights to keep its stretch
drive going tonight and con
tends for the basketball lead
ership of the Southern Ore
gon conference.
The Whirlwinds engage the
defending state champion
Grants Pass Cavemen. Game
time is 8:15 p.m. here at Hed
rick gym.
Grants Pass (34) comes to
town as the circuit's leader
one-half game ahead of Med'
ford (8-5).
Trie impetus of a five-game
winning streak, which has
carried it from fourth place
into a tie for second, will be
taken into conflict by the
Black Tornado. But, Grants
Pass has a string of victories
going too. The Climate city
club has won three straight
since the two aggregations
last met and Medford trim
med the Cavemen 51 to 44.
GP was victor on two pre
vious sessions with the Twist
er. Scores were 62 to 80 and
66 to 62.
Barn Burner
Medford, with just the
single game, has concentrated
this week's efforts on prep
ping for Grants Pass. The
Cavemen on the other hand
have had to tune for a pair
of tough assignments. They
are hosts on Saturday to
Klamath Falls (6-7).
Said Medford Coach Frank
Roelandt concerning tonight's
engagement: "It'll be a barn
burner. That's for sure. I
think it really will be a good
one."
'I think we're all set to
go," said the Hurricane tutor
further. He indicated the
usual starting five of Jim Hill,
Rich Benner, Jack Fordc, Dan
Miles and Larry Vowel), with

the prospect that Gibb Mitch
ell and Mike Neathamer, who
have been doing well could
see quite a bit of duty.
"We have two big ones,"
said GP Coach Gorden Prehm.
"It's a two-way job. Klamath
Is always tough for us."
Prehm indicated that the
Cavemen are looking upon
this week end as "do or die''
In the quest for the league
diadem and a return trip to
the Oregon Class A-l tourna
ment. He said that the Cave
men have spent a lot of time
in preparation for the week
end and that he felt they are
both physically and mentally
ready. He pronounced the
Cavemen "all healthy."
GP To Invade
A large following of fans
is anticipated from the Cli
mate city. "The whole town
Is ready to invade Medford,"
Prehm reported. The Climate
city supporters will come with
the idea that, if the Cavemen
play the same sharp, poised
brand of ball they did against
Crater last week, they'll win.
But, the Medfords last week
also showed some sharpness.
Commented Prehm after look
ing in on Coach Roelandt's
Tornadoes at Ashland last
Saturday, "I don't think any
body in the state could have
beaten Medford that night."
The Caveman tutor indi
cated that he will call on a
starting lineup of Lyman
Keisecker, Tom Sparlin, Al
Hutchins, Bob Shepard and
Jim Pippin.
Judging by the turnouts for
other Medford - Grants Pass
games this season, the by
words will be "come early to
find a seat" tonight. A standing-room
only crowd is fore
seen again.
Junior varsities of the two
schools will mix at 6:30 p.m.
on the Hedrick floor. Sopho
mores play at the same time
at the senior high boys' gym.

SHOWING TOO MUCH
Palm Springs, Calif. -ll'Pt-
Bo Belinsky, who has a repu
tation for throwing curves,
may be showing too much o(
his delivery on the baseball
diamond. That was the tenta

week drill in which manager
Bill Rignry watched from be
hind a batting cage as Belin
sky put on an impressive 20
minute display in batting
practice, flignry said it ap
peared Bo was tipping his

Grater at Ashland
On Saturday Night;
AHS Also Faces KF
Central Point-Crater high's
Comets, their chances the
brightest in 11 years to grab
a berth in Oregon's big school
basketball tournament, trav
el on Saturday night in fur
ther campaign to advance
their cause.
The Fireballs of Central
Point (8-5), tied for second in
their circuit, a half-game back
of first, go out against Ash
land Grizzlies on the Ashland
floor. Game time is 8 p.m.
It will be the fuurth meeting
between the two schools this
season. Crater has won the
other three 64 to 53, 65 to 50
and 60 to 57.
The Bruins (2-11) of the
Lithia city can go nowhere
this season. Their title and
tourney dreams long since
have faded. But, they are
spoiler-minded and out to
wreck the dreams of other
members of the circuit. So
far, the Grizzlies have been
a stumbling block to Medford
and to Klamath Falls. They
have this final chance against
Crater.
Helping Everybody
The Saturday night em
broilment actually is just one
of two week end assignments
for the Ashlandcrs. They have
their final meeting with Kla
math tonight at Klamath
Falls. Crater has just the one
game.
Ashland Coach George Keil
has described his team's spoi
ler role as "trying to help
everybody out." He said,
"We 11 try to get both of them
this week. We're not dead yet.
We'll hang in there as long
as we can."
Yet, pfter the rugged week
end just past, Keil has found
it a bit tough to keep his
players up. He reported that
the Grizzlies have been
"kinda tired." They have not
done much work this week.
The Bruins put forth a hard
effort against Grants Pass last
Friday. Then against Medford
Neil mentioned that the Ash
landers "ran out of gas Satur
day quite a bit."
The Grizzly skipper said
that he might change his line
up quite a bit. Starters may
come from among Jim Lamb,
Jeff Trost, Mike Cotton, Dale
Tepper, Rick Pierce and Tod
Hess.
Jones Turns Ankle
For Crater Coach Lloyd
Hoffine is expected to call
first on Paul Bransom, How
ard Tomlinson. Pat Papper,
Lou Alvarez and Mike Glines.
Hoffine has indicated the
Comets in good shape except
for Willie Jones, who is lost
for this week end and per
haps for the season. Jones
turned his ankle while shoot
ing baskets Sunday at the
Crater tennis court. His in
jury cuts from eight to seven
the number of players who
see the bulk of duty for the
Comets.
The coach described Jones
as a player who was needed
for a certain situation "and,
when the time came, he was
it." Now, Hoffine said, the
Fireballs will have to com
pensate. This may mean some
shifting around and it may
mean that Mike Gardner,
who has seen very little var
sity action, will see some
service.
Sophomores will play at 5
p.r... Saturday and junior var
sities at 6:30 p.m.

FLEXIBILITY!
The Daily Newspaper
Is the Flexible Medium
for Pinning Down Sales
Newspapers don't tie up the advertiser with rigid time
schedules or space limitations that weaken the impact
and effectiveness of his message. Newspapers offer crea
tive and physical flexibility. An advertiser can use I twe
page spread to tell a detailed story or he can use a smaller
space to say what he wants in fewer words, depending
on his budget and his strategy. The physical flexibility of
newspapers means ads can be scheduled quickly to take
caro of sudden selling opportunities. The daily newspaper
is flexible enough to fit any advertising strategy.
