Rockets Bid For Pacific Hockey Lead By The Associated Press Tacoma s rough and ready Rockets belatedly are contesting the winning monopoly long held by the Seattle Ironmen in the northern di vision of the Pacific Ice Hockey league.

Ashland j Medtoid IJi.Mrlel 4 basketball games of Saturday night saw the Klamath Kalis Pelicans Installed even more solidly in the Southern Oregon high school conference saddle at four wins and no losses two full games ahead of Grants Pass and Ashland and with Medford virtually out of ; ,ne running. Klamath drubbed the Black Tor- nado for the second straight night, 1 47-28. while at Grunts Pass the I Cavemen were measuring Ashland ' for the second time. 56 to 34. j Each team will have played 12 conference games before the season ! is over, so with four In the basket : the Pels' lead one-third of the way ; through is nothing to be taken j lightly. All that is riding on the ; outcome of district 4 play is the conference' championship and a i berth in the state high school bus- ketball tournament. SAME AS BEFORE Saturday nights Pelican court game was a virtual wax reproduc tion of the one Friday night, which Uie Pels won by a score of 45-25 after an exciting first half. Here again the first half was a thriller, with Bob Fasel putting Medford into the clear on two bas kets right at the stun of the game. The score mounted spraddle-fashlon one team counting, then the other, to 9-8 for the Black Tornado at Uie end of the opening quarter. Don Zarosinski pushed in a bucket and added a free throw to give Klamath a 11-9 margin early m the second period, and little Curt Richmond, pint-sized car buretor of the Medford club, count ed on a one-hander to the score. Zarosinski came to the rescue again with another push from the right side of Uie hoop and Klamath was ahead 13-11. The Pelicans were never in arrears again. Halftime count was 16-12. The third quarter was an un eventful one, ending w ith Klamath in the lead by 22-17. and the steam was really turned on in the fourth. One big period seems to be the Pelican style of play this season, and Saturday night it was the last quarter 25 points, more than ! Kiamath had scored in the three previous stanzas. EXACTLY EQUALLED With less than a minute to play the Pels had equalled Friday night's 45-25 score exactly and It looked as if they might let it rest there. But George Goodman earned a free throw to break the pattern. Gary Dawes gave the Pels back their 20-point lead, but Herb Brower again spoiled Uie plan with a last-second ringer which ended the game at 47-28. Dawes was the leading scorer of that till at 12 points, the only play er to get into Uie double figure bracket. Jack Lust, Zarosinski and Bob Barnes split second honors with nine each. Medford 5 Bob Fasel was high for the Tornado at seven. A crowd only slightly less than that of the previous night saw Sat urday's tilt.

Jan. 19 i"t The college basketball spotlight focused on sectional races today as the cam paign moved into the backstretch with the Kast boasting a complete monopoly on the dwindling list of unbeaten powers. Six major teams have been able to come through the first half's skirmishing without mishap but odds are heavy against any one of them going the rest of the way un scathed. Portland May Have Lengthy String Ready By the Associated Prrss Belliugham and Seattle continued to pace the Pacific coast pro cage race today, three and one-half and four games ahead of Tacoma and Vancouver, respectively, but a sign of life at tbe bottom of the league gives indications the second half rare may not be so rosy. The lowly Portland Indians who have won but six of 27 starts are I working on their longest string of the year after having dumped As- ! toria 65-52 Saturday night. It was ' the defending titllsts' second win in a row. Seattle got back into the race : yesterday with a 61-60 win over i Vancouver, then dropped over to j Tacoma to down the Mountaineers ' 51-45 in an exhibition go. Seattle's player-coach Al Bright- ! man led the Vancouver win with J 21 points, five more than tallied by Norm Baker, the No. 1 champion j scorer. All teams are idle tonight.
