ITS AN OLD auorU saying that
goes something like this: "The
best defense is a good offense."
The Owls seem to have switched
it around in their basketball cam
They've won 9 of 15 games, not
Dad record, ana yet have aver
aged Juct 60.4 per game, not a
fancy figure In these days of ac
celerated college basketball.
But look at their defensive rec

Is working like that, It's not ne
cessary to run lis own score into
the 80's and 60's.
THE RECENT Eastern Oregon
series was a good example of
Oregon Tech's defensive ability.
The Mountaineers invaded Klam

In games to that time.
They scored 45 and 53 a 49

Coach Art Klrkland figures and
It sounds sensible that if the Owls
can maintain their defensive aver
age and step up just a wee bit
otlensively, they'll wage a strong
fight in the homestretch of the
Oregon Collegiate Conference race.
Of course, two big answers will
come tonight and tomorrow night
In La Grande, where the Owls are
facing Eastern Oregon College.

lagging coffers from the Monday
night Harlem Globetrotters basket

far short of supporting Itself . . .
at least the $450 will be a backlog

The mystery of the Associated
Press high school basketball poll
is why it took so long for Cleve

Portland team, conquerors of Lin

Rocky Marciano will bob in and

Power Vs.
Pitching v
NEW YORK Wl For the second
straight year power has overshad
owed pitching prowess in selections
tor baseball's Hall of Fame.
The nation's baseball writers
reached into each of the Major
Leagues Friday for the latest ad
ditions to the shrine at Coopers
town, N. Y. They honored the late
Harry Heilmann, a great right
banded hitter for Detroit in the
20s, and Paul "Big Poison" Waner,
who came along a decade later to
belt out base hits for the Pittsburgh
Pirates.
Two sluggers Mel -Ott of the
New York Giants and Jimmy Foxx
of the Philadelphia Athletics were
last year's nominees and no one
was picked in 1950.
SHUFF STUFF
Wocus puffed its lead in the city
shuffleboard league with a 3-1 win
over Bill's Place last night.
The one game on last night's
agenda ended this week's shuffing.
Next week's games will finish the
first half of the schedule.
CALVIN GILMORE is one of the few Pelicans who has
escaped the recent flu plague. He'll be ready for tonight's
crucial two-game series opener in Ashland tonight.
3 Regulars Groggy
For Ashland Series
The Pelican cage squad, sagging
under vicious jolts from the llu
bug, is in Ashland tonight for
games that will go a long ways
toward determining whether Kla
math Falls is to keep alive in the
Dist. 4 basketball race.
The Pelicans have drilled just
briefly this week for the Ashland
series with their ranks torn by flu.

Dorris Gets
Iowa Ghosts
The famous Iowa Colored Ghosts
are in Dorris tomorrow night to
meet the Dorris Townies and the
Jayhawks, Klamath Basin league
teams.
The Ghosts, headed by Monroe
(Rip) Collins, show in Merrill Sunday.
Three regulars comprising the
tall forward wall of the Pelican
attack are doubtful starters. They
are forwards Jack Horton(6-4) and
Ray Bell i6-5) and Center Ralph
Carroll (6-7).
Sophmore Ed Barron, stickout
performer in last Saturday's win
over Roseburg. is also wobbling
on flu-weakened legs.
The flu hasnt touched Oakley
Summers but the promising junior
is nursing a shoulder Injury.
That, in a nutshell, is why coach
Paul McCall left this morning with
a parting statement that "well be
lucky to get a split."
ON TRIP
In addition to the five whose
duty against the Grizzlies will
probably be limited, McCall had
with him Calvin Gilmore, Jerry
Johnson. Doug Pence, Ken Young,
DavSl French, Jim Fisher and
the Flocchini twins, Stub and Les.
Ashland puts weak 4-8 record
against Klamath's 10-3-1. But the
Grizzlies snlit with the Grants
Pass in district play. So did the
Pels.
TOSS CT
The flu-torn Pels can rate no
better than a tossup against the
Ashland five.
The junior varsity squad minus
Vera Keller, Matt Finnigan and
Phil Detroit, also victims of the
flu meet the Ashland Jayvees
in Saturday's preliminary.
