The loss left the Owls still out in front of the OCC race with a 12-2 record. Southern Oregon com pleted its conference season with a 12-4 won-lost mark. The Owls now go out to clinch their second straight league cage championship when they host Oregon College of Education Friday and Saturday night m the final games of the year, by winning one of the two games. Coach Wally Palmberg's Owls carried the game to their hosts here Wednesday night and at the midway point looked as if they were going to clinch the title at the expense of the rival Red Raid ers. But an explosive seven-point spree in the first 58 seconds of the second half shook the Owls and the Raiders came back strong in the last half which saw the lead either change hands or tied 16 times. The Owls held a slim three-point advantage at halftime, 21-18 after matching their hosts' style of slow-set-um-up style of play. But Bill Hollingsworth scored twice from the field and once at the free throw line while teammate Jim McAbee tossed in a fielder to give the Raiders a 25-21 in the first 58 sec onds of play, D'OLIVO, OLIVA HIT . Tech pulled into a 25-all tie with 17:40 left in the game only to have Dave D'Olivo , and Norm Oliva hit back-to-back field goals as SOC moved ahead. 29-25. Charlie Bogle, the Owls' 6-9 center, Pel Wrestlers Attend State Mat Tourney Coach DeLance Duncan and nine of his KU varsity grapplers left today for Corvallis to take part in the state wrestling tournament to be held on February 20 and 21. Making the trip were Larry Ben der 115 lbs., Gil Roberts 123 lbs.. Harold Day 145 lbs., Gene Baxter 168 lbs., and John Hancock at 191 . These five won championships in their individual weight classifi cations at the district meeting in Mcdford last weekend. Also to compete are Lyle Mc Farland 106 lbs., Jim Shultz 123 lbs., Larry Alexander 141 lbs., and Larry Badorek 154 lbs., all of whom collected runnerup spots in their weights at the Medford matches. Grants Pass won the district championship with a total of 214 points against Klamath Falls who was next with 177. The Pelicans were forced to give up their dis trict title, one which they had kept since the inception of the Medford tourney, by virtue of the Grants Pass win. Though admittedly dismayed by the defeat, coach Duncan stated that perhaps good would come of it, since it has obviously whetted irs squad's determination to make a good showing in the state meet. The Pels notched their last state win in 1954.

McAbee hit once from the char ity line and Hollingsworth broke free for another cripple as South ern Oregon returned to the lead 32-31 with a little less than 13 nun utes left. From here the two clubs exchanged leads and knotted scores before SOC moved ahead for keeps in the last minute and a half. With the score tied 44-44 Ron Maurer hit twice from the free throw line with 1:24 left to give the Red Raiders their deciding advantage. McAbee added a sin gle gift shot with 1:10 left for the final scoring of the night and the Ashland collegians stalled out the remaining tune after an attempt bv the Owls was foiled.

In the second half, both teams tallied 10 times from the field but Southern Oregon made good nine of 14 free throws while the Owls hit only three of five tries. Tech was called for nine personal fouls in the last half, SOC four, which proved to be the downfall for OTI.

With 1:30 left in the half Rhine sank a long jump shot giving the Owls their t hree-Doint. halflune lead. ,. Bogle turned in one of his best efforts in -the second half as he drove through the SOC defenses for several timely baskets. The Owls' pivotman led the game's scoring with 15 points. 12 from the field. Bogle also led the Tech re bounding although the Raiders out-rebounded the Owls as a team and made some nice defensive checks of SOC shots.

Chieftain Averages 47 Points By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ' Elgin Baylor's average is only 33.45 per game but that's due to his slow start; lor the past half dozen basketball outings the Se attle University star has been av eraging 47 and his total point pro duction has reached 669. This puts him 131 points ahead of second-place Loren Anderson ol Seattle Pacific and almost wraps up the 1958 Pacific Northwest tally title for Baylor. Oddly enough, Baylor trails An derson in free throw output, 177 to 186. There was little change this week in the rankings. Following Anderson were David Gardner ol Northwest Nazarene. Chuck Cur tis of Pacific Lutheran and Bill Hollingsworth of Southern Oregon College. Gary Simmons of Idaho moved up a notch to sixtn, swapping spots with Doug Smart of Wash- ington.

The semi-pro Northern California League fills a need for entertain ment, but with the demand for imported college players to meet competition, many local players are left off the teams. Some pf these dropped from the teams could,, with a year's more experience, make the teams. But if they are idle all summer, they will probably never further im prove, A league of somewhat low er player standards would prove a valuable aid to the fans, the play ers, and to the moral tone of the communily. Whether this new league be an American Legion band, or whether something on the order of the old Siskiyou County League is now be ing considered. Many believe the Siskyou County loop could be re. activated and prove a valuable training field for a crop of promis ing youngsters coming out of high school this spring.
