Pa Ilea Let 24 to 28
By BILL CUMMINGS
Two free throws in the last
minute of play, tossed by Don
Olson, gave an Inspired combin
ation of Klamath Commercial
league all-stars a 37-36 victory
over the Southern Oregon Col
lege of Education varsity Satur
day night on the KUHS floor.
In a preliminary the Klamath
high Pelicans, after keeping pace
with their taller opponents most 1
of the game, dropped behind in
the final minutes to lose to the
SOCE frosh 24-28.
With four minutes to go in
the nightcap, the all-stars forged
into a 35-35 deadlock when Paul
Crapo swished in two howitzers
from far out on the floor. George
Bassman, huge Sons center,
caged a free throw soon after,
but that was the last tally hung
up by the Ashland outfit. -
Olson, who plays for Ricky's
Jewelers in the commercial loop,
was fouled by Chuck DeAutre
mont, Sons guard, with 60 sec
onds left in the ballgame. He
stepped to the free throw line
and sent No. 1 spinning around
the rim before it finally fell in
to tie the score. His second toss
furnished the locals their one
point victory margin.
With only seconds left, Olson
fouled Bobby Hoefs but the Ash
lander missed the single try
a point that would have dead
locked the contest.
The All-Stars took a 7-5 lead
in the first half, before the Sons,
smoother ball-handlers than the
Klamathites, began to find the
range. SOCE led 16-15 at the
rest period. ,-- -
In the preliminary the Little
Sons contrg5"M4 the backboard
by virtue of irlor height, and

ter and 17-16 at the half.
