The nod was rated on Washington p re-season record in which it was undefeated in four starts on its home floor, including two tilts with California. . With both squads playing the same type of game single post, fast break, and man-to-man defense the game might well turn out to be one of the season's best. Washington divided a two-game invasion against the Oregon Ducks In Its Initial conference outing while Washington State bowed twice to Oregon State.

Vocal by Kelsey Coplin H o Pel-Tornado Clash Draws District Eye Two County Loop Games Considered In 'Crucial' Class The first meeting of the current biiskolbnll season is arranged tonight 1x1, veil the Klamath Falls Pell- cms and the Medford Black Tor r..uto. before an expected turn-away c oil at the local lush school court. Game time is 8 o'clock or shortly thereafter. A preliminary tilt putting the jun ior varsity outfits of both schools on the floor is scheduled to start at 7 p. ni. A clean sweep of this Medford s.-1-.is two games would put the Pelicans in a most favorable light to continue to dominate the district 4 basketball race, and a double win is cielinitrly In the plans of Coach Wayne Scott and his boys. The Tor nado outfit probably is entertain ing the same notions for its side. However, as matters now stand, the Pels hold two wins and no losses in conference play, while the Medford team was defeated closely by Ashland in two league games. Those Ashland - Medford scores were 39-37 (overtime! and 49-45. PROTEST WITHDRAWN There was some discussion of a protest of the first game by the Tornado, but an Ashland report says that the protest was withdrawn when it became apparent that nothing would be done about It be cause full overtime periods and not a "sudden death" finish was agreed upon in advance. The Grants Pass Cavemen play tonight at Ashland and the Oriszlies return the compliment tomorrow night with a showing at Grants Pass. On the county high school scene tonight four games are scheduled, two of which can't help but have a direct bearing on the current league leadership. Sacred Heart and Gilchrist are In i the saddle at two wins and no de feats, followed by Henley with one win in the Hornets' sole conference encounter. HORNETS OX ROAD Henley travels to Gilchrist for a : came with the Gri77lip anH if nil. j Christ wins this one the boys from j tne nortnern comer of the county I will be w ell on their way to coming down to the wire in front. Sacred Heart entertains Chiloquin here on the Altamont court in what j is actually the first all-out test of j , the Trojans. The two previous Sacred Heart wins have been over Malin and Bonanza, two teams which haven't cut the winning ice yet. Chiloquin was the team figured as the conference leader in pre season play, but has been topped bv ! Gilchrist. Neither Bonanza nor ' Blv have I come up with a winner yet. but one will tonight. They play at Bonanza. I Merrill and Malin tangle In a i south-end special at Merrill. House Too iSmall For UCLA-Troy LOS ANGELES. Jan. 16 iPi I UCLA and the University of South ern California open a two-night bas ketball series tonight and the only certainty about the matches is that the house Isn't large enough to hold the crowd. With both teams vieing to remain in the southern division race of the Pacific Coast conference, the Olym pic auditorium's 8000 seat capacity has been sold out both nights. Both UCLA and the Trojans took Stanford into camp here last week- 1 end. but both also fell victim to California's smooth working team. For the 1947-48 season, however, UCLA boasts 10 wins against four setbacks, as against Troy's 6-6 rec ord. The Uclans boast speed and Capt. Johnny Stanich's 35-pomt total surpasses top Trojan scorer Bill Sharman s 20, which were reg- i istered in two games less than UCLA , played.
