In Rogue River Valley, district

" Medford should wrap It up and
oualify for the district showdown
with Crater High, the, series that
picks the Eugene state'tohrnament
pist. 4 representative..
5LBut hopes are still, high that
orants Pass can do some spoiling
against Medford. ;
If Klamath Falls can sweep the"
Ashland set, the Cavemen can give
the Pels a tie with Medford by
dividing their series with the Tor
nado.' ,
ONE GAME
', IA that event, Medford and Klam
ath' Falls would settle the deadlock
in a one-game quarrel.
Two wins for the Pels, two for
Grants Pass, would give Klamath
Falls the title. But even the opti
'mistic and fool-hardy aren't looking
for this.
Medford holds a one-game bulge
on the Pelicans with an 8-2 record.
Klamath Falls has won seven of
10 starts.
Coach Paul McCall's Pelicans
aren't figuring to be caught nap
ping. They'll go for two over the
Grizzlies and hope Grants Pass
can turn at least one upset over
Medford. "
McCall has his five starters ready
to shooVtha works. Center Ralph
narroll. who measures 6-7,. is at
the. center spot where he's dunked
nmitrfc noints to lead the Southern
Oregon Conference in scoring with
room to spare.
Flanking Carroll at the forward
positions- are 6-5 Bay Bell and 6-4
jack Horura.
Speedboys Jerrv Johnson and Cal
Gilmore are down for the guard
calls.
Ashland's hopes of upending the
Pels are seriously cramped with
the loss of Bill Hoiungsworin. uie
Grizzlies' too scoreboy, out with an
ankle injury.
Guard Harvey Woods will prob
tbly carry the bulk of Ashland's
tally chore. He'll team with either
Vera Tenney or Bob Myrick.
Forward starters will likely be
Ted Tenney and BUI Miles. Gregg
Lininger, promising sophomore,
gets ,the center call. i
Tonight's 6:45 preliminary puts
the junior, varsity, against the Wild
cats in a' family fued. The Jayvees

Open For
Cage NIT
By The Associated Press !
Only one spot remained to be 1
filled in the National Invitation
Basketball Tournament Friday and ',
that coud be grabbed by any of a
half-dozen teams. )
This has been one of the tough
est seasons on record for the NIT i
nnd its Selection Committee Chair- j
man, Asa Busline!!. .
The committee, in fact, had to
waive a rule it recently had adopt
edthe long standing NCAA ban
against a player performing in a
fourth year of varsity competition
in order to lure the University
of Louisville into the fold.
U TEAMS
Along with Louisville. New York
University, Western Kentucky and
LaSalle were entered In (lie tour
ney Thursday, bringing the total
to 11 teams.
Now the leading contenders for
the last spot are DePaul (18-7.
Loyola of Chicago 17-7, St. Jo
seph's of Philadelphia tl6-S, Tex
as Christian 120-31. Vlllanova (17-6)
and Miami of Ohio U7-5). The
Tourney starts a week from Satur
day with a triple-header in Madison
Square Garden.
NYU and LaSalle both were se
lected before Uieir games in Mad
ison Sauaro Garden Thursday
night. Theoretically, they should
have been out of the running since
they both previously lost "test"
games. NYU, In fact lost two. La
Salle looked good, though, turning
back Manhattan, 77-55, while NYU
took another whipping at the hands
of St. John's, 78-75. , .
WIN FIRST , -
Kentucky, the NCAA and South
eastern Conference champions, won

agnlmt the same Pilots last week.
ONK t'HANCK
SeatUe and Portland end their
series Friday night, giving O'Bi lvii
at least one more clumee to ad I
new pages to ba.skclball's record
books. He Is within 20 field goals
of King's all time record of 354, :oi
Instance.
Topping Klug in that branch Is
an almost impassible asslgiimxiu
lu the season-ending clash with
Portland Friday, but the Chieftains
still hold some hope of a post
season tournament bid.
The Seattle victory Thursday
night partially avenged the douhle
shellacking Portland handed the
Chieftains at Portland last week.
EARLY LEAD
The Pilots, led by Guard Jim
Winters who scored 23 points, took
an early lead but Seattle wont
ahead near the end of the first
quarter and held a 66-40 httlftlme
edge. Portland was rapidly closing
the gnp In the last few minutes,
after three Chieftains fouled out
and another was Initirert. hm k.
altle adopted a tight ball control
defense and held the lead until the
final whistle.
O'Brien made his 1.000th point
