Huskies
Here For
Cage Tilts
Klmatii'i high school basketball
season moves into the first official
game action tonight and Saturday
evening jtt Pelican Court as the
Klamath Union Pelicans of Don
Peterson host the invading Huskies
of "Reno High School for a non
' conference series.
Both teams, although lacking in
experience, have been classed as
contenders in their respective
leagues as the forthcoming season
approaches. Reno, defending Neva
da state AAA high school champion
and Northern Interstate Conference
winner last year, was hit hard by
last spring's graduation, as was
Klamath Union. The Huskies can
claim only three returning letter
men, but that is one more than
the Pels can count.
Coach John Robb, in his first
season as head cage boss at Reno
High, has lettermen Tom Sloan,
Jerry Moon and Fred Black back
after winning letters last year.
For Peterson's cagers, only Orln
Perkins and Dave Pepple played
enough to earn monograms last sea
son. .
FIRST OUTING
This is Reno's first outing of the
pew season, and the Pels first
"game" play. Last Friday nignt
at Pelican Court, the Pels turned
in a 3-0 Southern Oregon Confer
ence Jamboree victory over Ash
lund. Grants Pass and Medford,
while racking up 51 points in three
quarters of play. This weekend's
series will be more of a true test
of what is ahead for Klamath Un
ion basketball fans.
The Huskies and Pels have met
on three occasions in the past with
the Nevada powerhouse winning
two and the Pels one. Last year
at Reno. Klamath fell twice before
a Husky team that was the talk
of Nevada and Northern California
prep circles. The losses of 6-8 Stan
Valentyne, Jeff Morby, Len Mar
dian. Dean Paddy and Bob Clem
mens, last year's starting quintet,
have hurt the Reno prospects, but
Robb is reportedly building another
top contender with this year's club.
Sloan and Moon are expected to
draw the starting forward spots
against the Pels this evening, while
Black will hold down one of the
guard positions, as Robb makes
full use of his three veterans. The
other two opening berths will prob
ably be given to guard Alex Kan
wetz, up from last year's Junior
varsity, and center Ron Oifford,
6-4, also a graduate of Reno's Jun
ior varsity ranks.
LAST MINUTE
Other possible last minute chang
es in Reno's first-line might find
Bob Morton at a forward spot,
Paul Campbell at center and John
Hancock working at a guard posi
tion, v
Peterson said late this week he
still hadn't settled on a starting
five, but would 'again be doing
srme experimenting to find a quin
tet that can be called upon to
carry the heavy load that faces
the Whiteblrds. Two "sure" start
ers for the Pels will probably be
big Olenn Moore at center and
Butch Kimpton at one of the two
guard slots. The other three start
ers will come from forwards Orin
Perkins, Earle Tichenor and Cliff
Sutherland, and guards Donn Tau-
cher. Lee McGIll and Mike Runge.
Others who might possibly see
basketball action against the Husk
ies this weekend for Peterson's
crew are Jerry Burke, Dave Pep
ple, the other returning lettermen.
Bill Hamblln, Bill Williams and
Ken Douglas.
Game time of the varsity clash
is 8.15. A preliminary game both
nights will pit Ray Coley's Junior
varsity cagers against the National
Guard team of the City League.
The jayvee-National Guard contest
starts at 6:45. Doors and ticket
booths will open at 6:30, according
- to Joe Peak,, athletic director of
KUHS.

"WHERE WERE YOU WHEN THE vitamins were passed out," asks 6-6 Glenn Moore, center,
to Pelican teammates Lee McGill, left, and Dave Pepple, right, as the trio of Klamath Union
cagers gather for some after-practice fun. Moore, only a sophomore, grips two regulation bas
ketballs, while McGill, a 5-7 junior, and Pepple, 5-10 senior, try to learn Glenn's secret of
growing. Moore will open at center for the Pels tonight and tomorrow evening against Reno
in games at Pelican Court. McGill and Pepple are also slated to see action. Game time is 8:15.

Dodger Catcher Gets
3rd 'Valuable' Award
NEW YORK -Roy Campanel-
la", baseball's Comeback Man of
the year, today Joined one of the
sport's most exclusive clubs when
he was named the , National
League's Most Valuable Player for
the third time.
Only five players have won the
coveted Most Valuable trophy as
many as three times. The 34-yeir-old
Brooklyn catcher and Stan (The
Man) Muslal of the St. Louis Car
dinals are the only National
Leaguers.
Jimmy Foxx, that great slugger
who played for the Athletics and
Red Sox: Joe DiMaggio of Yankee
fame: and Yogi Berra, New York
catcher are the three in" the Amer
ican League. Berra received his
third MVP award a week ago.
One might think that Campanel-
la, who is used to hanging up
Kenesaw Mountain Land Is plaques
(the official trophy given by the
league) in his St. Albans, N.Y.,
home, would be a little blase about
receiving another. But not so. '
"I get a bigger kick out of this
one than I did the other two 1951
53)," said the big Negro catcher
who beat out teammate Duke Snid
er by five votes. "I didn't look
forward to this one and It is a
wonderful surprise."
But Immediately Campy said he
has no intention of resting on his
laurels.
"I think I've got a few good
seasons left," he said. "The worst
has happened," referring to an In
jured hand of 1954 which held his
batting average to .207 in 11
games. He didn't receive a single

Campy zoomed back to .318 this

the poll some 25 years ago.
The Brooklyn catcher, receiving
eight first-place votes from a 24

Johnny Foster Joins
Owls For HSC Series
Humboldt State College and Ore
gon Technical Institute open a 1
two-game basketball aeries tonight
at Areata, California, and Wally
Palmberg's Owls from the Mile
High Campus flew south with a big
smile as they attempt to sweep berth
frays for the four-year Lumber
Jacks. Palmberg learned yesterday that
Oregon Tech officials had cleared
the name of Johnny Foster, and the
6-2 former all-state hoop star from
Central Catholic la now eligible to
play for the Owls. When Foster en
rolled at OTI, he lacked a few cred
its and these had to be made up
this semester before he was per
mitted to play.
The addition of Foster proves
to be a problem, but a pleasant
one. for Palmberg. Last Saturday
night without the services of
"Jumping Johnny," the Owls
bounced back from a Friday night
defeat at the hands of Olympic
Junior College to swamp the Brem
erton hoop squad 95-64. Two of the
mainsprings in the Owl win were
Bob Frost and John McCutcheon,
one of whom might have to take a
backseat to Foster now that he has
been given an okay to play.

Palmberg will probably use let
terman Richie Perkins at one guard
spot to open this ever'ng's game
against the experience -loaded Lum
berjacks, while Lafe Harris will
be at center. The forward selec
tions will probably be Foster and
McCutcheon, although It will be
hard to keep Frost out of action.
Humboldt, a four-year college,
has nine lettermen on their var
sity squad this year, four of whom
were starters on last year's Lum
berjack quintet. Coach Franny Olv
ins, a former Humboldt athletlo
star himself, has 6-4 Bob Myers
to lead his club at center and
Oeorge Ibrarreta, a smooth-working
guard to direct the floor play of
the Lumberjacks. Myers is a three
year letterman and Ibrarreta is
a two time monogram winner.
Working with these two In the prob
able starting lineup for Humboldt
will be 6-0 Paul Shields, senior let
terman, and 6-1 Bob Lawson, sopho
more letterman, at the two forward
spots. Ibrarreta's running mate at
guard will probably be Henry Coop
er, a 5-10 speedster who played
ball last year with Vallejo Junior
College.
