The half-time score was 16-11 In favor of the winners. The chief difficulty, according to Coach "Dutch" French in his description of the game, was Klamath'i failure to hit the bas ket. They got plenty of shots, In cluding setups, but were unable to make the opportunities pay on the scoreboard. Long Ones Fall Bob Lowe, whose long shots bare clicked In earlier games, was able to connect only once Friday night for two points. His howit zers and those of the other Peli cans generally fell short of the hoop, while inexperience took Its toll In the set plays. On defense, too, the Klamaths howed signs ot weakness. In con trast to the lightning speed ot the Grlislles, the Pelicans were late In getting to their defensive posi tions. ' The Klamath passing: Dutch said, was fair. The scoring was as follows: Klamath (20) Ashland (88) Bush, I Warren, 6 Jarrett, ( . Robinson, 6 Lowe, t - - - Nance, S Anderson, I Harris, 8 Cooley. I Silver, 8 The Pelicans move on to Grants Pass Saturday night to tackle the Cavemen. Coach French held hopes ot a winning soore, but said that the Klamath attack will not find lta stride before a month is out. Basketball HIGH SCHOOL franklin (Portland) M.

As the Klamath Basin basket ball circuit completed Its fourth week of court campaigning Fri day night at the armory, only two teams, Gienger's Grocery of Chlloquin and Lost River Dairy, 1938 runner-up and champion, respectively, can boast perfect records. Lost River's boopslers have an nexed five straight wins to lead the Nationals, while the Glonger five tops the Americau division with five victories In as many starts. A dangerous Knights ot Co lumbus entry Is pressing the Chiloquin representative with three wins out of four games, and If the Indians fall to win a contest or two the Knights may sneak oft with the championship ot the American loop. The leaders, however, looked mighty formidable this week In trampling Merrill, 51-12, Thurs day night. The Glenger players zipped the ball around and over the Merrlllltes with ease and hit the bucket, seemingly, whenever they wished. Ted Schopf was the big gun for the winners with 23 points. Hasklns accounted for 10 ot Merrill's total. Murray Marshall, fast Lowell forward, tallied 16 points In a game Friday night as the Food Store quintet whipped First Na tional Bank, 32-19, for its sec ond straight win and took over sole possession ot fourth place among the Americans. Safeway maintained third po sition by dumping Webb Ken nett Friday. 30-19. George Gray, diminutive forward, paced the Safeways with 11 points. The loss pushed the Webb Kennett basketeers Into the cellar with a single victory In five attempts. Lost River easily knocked over Lone Pine Thursday night to keep its undefeated status as Emil Stroelde, giant center for the Dairymen, pumped In 16 counters for the winners. Thirty-two personal fouls and several technical penalties were called during the Molatore-Junior Chamber of Commerce National league clash Thursday. The bat tle was by far the roughest en gagement of the current season at the armory. Molatore's final ly won out, 30-25, to take over second place behind Lost River. Ernie Bishop, Molatore captain, made 12 points, all In the open ing half, tor high honors. Ham mer was best for the Jaycees with seven tallies. Score at the Intermission favored the winners, 18-9. Trailing 17-1 at the end of the flrat period, Lamm's Mill of Modoc Point came back strong In the second session against Signal Oil Friday night, but the latter squad staved off the rally to win, 26-15. The victory placed the Oilers In fourth position In the National race just ahead ot the Modoc Pointers. Friday nights summaries: Lowell's (32) (10) 1st Nat. Ilk. J.
