Thursday, Jon. 17. 1948 HERALD AND NEWS EIGHT Tornado Takes 38-22 Victory From Klamath By HALE SCARBROUGH A second-half attack of buck fever reduced the Pelican defense to a shambles before a packed audience at the KUHS gym last night and Medford's Black Tornado overpowered the local boys 38 to 22. The Pelican win streak was snapped at eight straight. Bill Singler, Medford's starting forward, and Darrell Riggs, center, were a team unto themselves.

Singler accounted for 20 points and Riggs for 14. Klam ath's best efforts amounted to seven points for Jim Palmer and five for Ray Craig. Starting the first quarter both teams sparred for a couple of minutes, then Riggs planted a field goal to get the Pcarpick- ers out In front. A coupie more minutes of sparring and Craig and Leroy Coleman evened the count with free throws. Riggs got another basket and a charity toss, running the score to 5-2; Coleman hit a long shot, Singler sank his first and Palmer got two free passes to end the quarter 7-6 for Med ford. Palmer opened the second canto with a goal at the end of a fast break, putting the Pels in the lead for the only time during the evening. Riggs, Singler and Bob Watson 11 tallied, the score 13-8, and the Pelican second string . came in. Tommy Edwards lasted about 30 seconds before he was boot ed out of the game for inten tionally roughing Singler. The Medford forward sank one of the two free throws allotted him and the half ended Medford 14, Klamath 8. Each team scored eight points in the third quarter Bob Red key, Palmer and Thome for the - Pels, Riggs and Singler for . Medford.

Eagan, chairman of the New York state athletic committee, inaugurated his four-point sys tem .last March. Since then draw decisions have been elimi nated, but followers of the sport have argued out tile merits of Uie system. Several weeks ago Eagan said he could see no reason for any change in the point-scoring system should the fight be held in New York. At the time of the first Louis Conn scrap at the Polo Grounds in June, 1941, when the old round-by-round method of scor ing was effective. Conn was ahead, seven rounds to five, at the end of 12 rounds. In the 13th he made the mistake of trying to slug It out with the champion and was knocked out. Under the Eagan four-point system of scoring, the winner of the round is credited with one point if in the opinion of the judges, he wins the round by a shade. If the margin is definite he gets two points. If the mar gin is one-sided, but there is no knockdown, the winner gets three points. If a knockdown occurs, the winner receives the maximum of four points. Thus, if at the end of 15 rounds, a judge, has each win ning seven rounds with one even, he would add up the points for each. If the totals are even, he would decide which one fin ished stronger and name that one the winner.
