IN FIR SI TILT
By JIM 81.1'KKL'R
Klamath HI OorrFspoadeat
Behind tha scoring eye of "Big
Ox" Howell, giant center and
captain, tha Ashland Llthlans
trimmed the Klamath Pelicans.
33 to II In tha local high school
gym last night.
It was a hopeless Job tor the
Pelicans to stop Howell, for
be got away to score at will, tal
lying up a total of If points.
The nearest to him la scoring
was Bill Estee, Klamath forward,
who netted 11 tallies.
Ray Allen, captain and renter
of the Pel les ns. and Dick Sheets,
forward, aat on tha bench the
entire game, aa a disciplinary
measure affected by Coach
French, when ha learned they
had played In an outside game.
It waa expected, however, these
players will ba la action In to
night's tilt.
Howell started oft the scoring
by ringing np tha first three
points of tba game. He waa fol
lowed la scoring by Estea and
Pernell, ot Klamath, who drew
first blood for the Pelicans. The
two qulnteta continued to battle
it out on even terma for the
rest ot tha first quarter, the
score being 1 to 10 at tha and
ot thla period.
In the second period, Knleval
showed the effects of the fast
psce required In guarding How
ell, while the Ashland giant did
not seem to be very tired, and
scored the major part of hla
points In this quarter. Tha Birds
were putting np a hard fight and
succeeded in outplaying every
Ashland player except Howell,
hut that worthy made up enough
difference for his team-mates to
lead 21 to 17 at the end of the
first half.
Knleval and Estea opened the
scoring in the second period to
bring the Pelicans within two
points of tha Bears' total, but
thla waa the only time they
threatened to get near to tha
id.
A system for gtopplng Howell
waa apparently devised during
the rest of tha period, aa he only
scored two baskets in the second
half. However, in their eager-
I to stop the Llthiaa giant.
the Pelicans overlooked a few
of tha other members of the vis
iting team and they managed to
get away for a ahara In tba
honors.
In tha preliminary tba wild
cats, Klamath aecond team, took
an easy 3 to game from the
Fort Klamath aquad.
