TUESDAY, JAN. 27, 1948 PACE EICHT HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, ORECON hi3 Pelicans Should Reach State Basketball Meet At Eugene This Season If nil the scums hold, the Klamath Pelicans will get Into (he suite hlBh school basketball tournament Oils March for the second time m two years. But the struggle isn't over. Medford, Ashland and Oram Pass the other district 4 contestants ion c have It In their physiognomy to hold still while Klamath wins anything. Particularly a high school athletic championship. But at the present writing the Pels are far enough ahead where they can quit panting for a while. Twelve games constitute the league's piny for each team, and four are down already. Klamath has won all four of its trials, while Ashland and Grants Pass have two each way and Medford has lost four. The Pels take on Ashland this coming week-end, while Grants Pass and Medford have a two-game series on the pan. Here's the way the district stacks up right now Team Klamath Falls Grants Pass . Ashland Medford W. 4 2 2 0 L. 0 2 2 4 ret. 1 000 ..son .500 .000 PF 18 175 161 135 OP 114 149 198 180 PP Doints for. OP opponents' points. That table shows the Pels as the best defensive team and second I ),jgh scorer, while Grants Pass is potent offensively but has a lapse in ' defense. Ashland and Medford also have very leaky defenses, and right there Is where the district title will be won. Twenty-Gome Average Is 42.5 It's interesting to note that the Pelicans now have tucked 20 games, conference and otherwise. Into history this season, with a mark of 15 wins and five defeats. The losses have been to Redding. Klamath Alumni, Albanr, Oregon Frosh and Southern Oregon Jayvees. In their 20 games, the Pels have amassed 850 points, for a 42.5 por game average, and the combined opponents have been limited to 687 total, or 34.35 average. Not bad at all. Chiloquin Boy Would Be Sleuth Gillis Hannigan, who could easily be classed as an all-stale basket ball forward in class B, wants to be a criminologist, no less, when he grows up. A criminologist, my police force friends tell me. is a cop with an education. Hannigan is thinking of enrolling in such a course at St. Martin's college in Lacey. Wash. He is currently an ace on the Chiloquin high school cage outfit From Great Slave Lake To Here Fish from Great Slave lake way up in the Northwest territory of Canada are now being sold in a local store. Fishermen in a camp at the lake, 300 miles south of the Arctic circle, chop big holes in the ice and seine. They pull their catches up to the surface and -dress them on the ire. The temperature, down to 40 below, freezes the fish right on the spot- They're boxed and shipped by sled 400 miles to a railroad and eventually find their nay to a Seattle distributor. One of the types caught at the lake is the inconnu. a creature that gets to weigh 10 or 12 pounds and looks like a Williamson river mullet. Briefs Just Trio Of Clear Tabs Left NEW YORK.

I "Jorge Pasquel is the head man. , When he runs a business, he runs It." , That seems to clear up the post . tion of one Alejandro Aguilar Reyes, who has been named com J missioner of Mexican baseball. Pasquel said his Mexican league will have eight teams next season, , rather than the six of last year when the circuit lost a million I pesos ($250,000. more or less.) victors' attack with 27 points, but the strong backing of Allen Maul's 23 counters didn't hurt.
