Game? A New
$64 Question
CHICAGO, Jan. 18 (AP

$64 question:
The Monmouth college fresh
men and the Augustana (111.)
reserves played a basketball
game in which neither team ap
pears to have lost and yet it
wasn't a tie.
At the end of regulation time
the scoreboard showed a 29-29
tie.
It was still tied, 33 all, after
a five-minute overtime.
In a second overtime August
ana won, 36-34.

High School Hoopsters
Make Weekend Sweep
Wildcats Beat Bonanza High Hoopers
Frosh Take B League Game Saturday .
Klamath high school hoop teams made a clean sweep of their
weekend games. The Pelicans dropped tho Grants Pass Cave
men on the Grants Pass floor Saturday night for the third con
secutive time by a score of 32-28. The Wildcats beat Bonanza
38-23, and the high school Ireshmcn whipped tho Bonanza B
team.
The Grants Pass-Pelican tilt was a riotous affair with the
crowd cheering so loudly that the referee's whistle couldn't be
heard. Klamath took the lead at the quarter 15-12 and led by
Bocchi and Welch ran the score to 21-12 at the half. The score
at the end of the third period was 28-20.
in a last minute rally, the
Cavemen made eight points to
the Pelican's four to bring the
score to 32-28. A field goal and
two foul shots brought the score
to 24-30. Foster of Klamath
sunk one, and the Cavemen des
perately stabbed two more field
goals in the net before the fi
nal whistle blew.
Welch and Bocchi led the
scoring with scores of twelve
and ten each. Foster and Boc
chi handled the ball well and
worked zone defense by passing
cutting. Hex Young, playing
center, did an excellent job of
getting the ball off the back
boards. The small Grants Pass court
hampered the fast breaking Pel
ican game somewhat, but the
Klamath men settled down to a
game of zone defense and ol
lense to protect their lead in
the third quarter.
On the local floor Saturday
night, the Wildcats dropped the
Bonanza nigh school hoopmen
by a score ol 38-23, leading all
tne way in a rough game,
though no men were ousted lor
personal louls.
Eastman ol the Wildcats was
high score man.
In the Wildcat preliminary,
the Frosh basketeers defeated
the Bonanza B squad and con
tinued their unbroken string of
victories. A bucket by Tom
Snyder, lanky rook forward, in
the ' final minute put the game
on ice for the Klamath team,
' The Frosh, coached by Paul
Deller, have beat the Merrill
and Malin B teams and won a
scrimmage tilt with the Junior
high school. Next Tuesday the
Wildcats and Freshmen will
play Chiloquin at Chiloquin.
