Putting on a stirring fourth
quarter rally, the KUHS Wild
cats gained sweet revengo with
a 43 to 37 victory over Tulcluko
on the Honkers' own floor Sut
urday night.
Behind four points at the end
of the third quarter, the Klam
ath boys began to hit Ihe bucket
and snowed under the hard
fighting Honker who had prev
iously handed th Wildcats their
only setback of the season. The
lead changed hands many times
during the game, and the cheer
ing crowd was limp with ex
haustion by th time the thriller
ended.
Charley Schreiber of Tulelake
was the biggest worry for Coach
Paul Angstead and his boys ns
he racked up 20 points, which
was high for the game. Lcroy
Coleman was tops for Klamath
with 18 counters closelv followed
by Bill Crawford with 14 and
Ray Craig with 11. Dick Max
well scored 10 tallies for the
Honker.
The Klamath freshmen took
th preliminary 18 to 15 from
the Tulelak "B" sqund with
neither team scoring a single
point In the first quarter. Jim
Kennett of the locals and Marvin
Brown of the Callfornlans tied
for high point honors with leveii
