. ; In their last home games ot 57-58
Reason, the Klamath Union Peli
'tans meet the Grants Pass Cave
men in a Southern Oregon Con
ference double-header tonight and
Saturday on Pelican Court.'
The series should prove to be
the highlight of a very successful
Pel campaign. The KU cagers en
ter the contcsls with an 11-won,
Most conference record and a to
tal of 17-1 for Hie entire season.
The battle with the Cavemen not
only gives the firm of .Moore,
Nilcs, Robinson, Peterson, llor
rera and Company a chance to
nail down another SOC champion
ship: it also is an opportunity for
them to avenge themselves for
the only blot on an otherwise per
fect record, the earlier-season de
; feat dealt them by the upstart
Grants Passers.

Activities In the Pelican gym
this past week have included
stress on a zone offense, fast
break and board positions. The
Pel rebound ability has improved
considerably over some of their
earlier efforts. The scrimmages
also included hard work on some
new offensive patterns as well as
stiff practice on man-to-man de
fense. Starting tonight for the KU quin

Ring Bout
NEW YORK un The Latin
American division of the heavy
weight class dominated the scene
at Madison Square Garden tonight
when Cuba's Nino Valdes faces
Argentina's Alex Miteff.
The bout is very important for
both fighters. Valdes, the only
man to knock out Joe Lrskine
hopes to vault toward a title shot
Miteff, flattened by Mike DeJohn
wants to prove he belongs with
the rated heavies.
Valdes, 33, a veteran of 57 pro
fights since 1941, was pulling lor
Erskinc, the British champ, to de
throne Ingemar Johansson, the
European king, in Sweden today.
"It make me look better," was
Nino's reasoning in favor of a
victory for Erskine whom he dis
posed of in one round a vear aeo
ii trsKine neats Johansson, he
is supposed to get a crack at
Floyd Patterson's world title. But
you can be sure Nino will be in
there screaming if he whips Miteff.
The 10-round match is so inter
esting that the odds are even.
Since bombing Erskine. Valdes
has outpointed Johnny Holman
ana knocked out Jelf Dyer. His
record is 41-14-2.
Miteff blazed through 12 straight
pro fights without defeat until he
bumped up against DeJohn in
Syracuse. He went out in one, Oct.
9. Alex came back to stop Bob
Graves and Tony Gagliardo in his
two outings since the DeJohn
match. His record is 14-14.
The match will be carried on
network (NBC) radio and televi
sion, starling at 10 p.m. EST. Two
judges and a referee will score it
by rounds, using a supplemental
point system in case of even
rounds.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Somebody finally did something
about Seattle's Elgin Baylor and
came within a wink of upsetting
the Chieftains, too, in major col
lege basketball.
Montana State held Baylor to a
mere 23 points, reducing his na
tional scoring lead to three-tenths
of a point, last night, but with a
little bit of luck. Seattle stretched
its winning string to 12 games wilh
a 77-76 decision.
For a change, it wasn't Baylor
who supplied the heroics in Seat
tle's late surge for a postseason
tournament bid. This time it was
Jim Harney, a 5-10 senior, who
got the job done, sinking a 30-foot
set shot with nine seconds left as
the Chieftains came from three
points behind with les than a
minute remaining.
Baylor now has '677 points for
20 games and a 33.0 average. Idle
Cincinnati's Oscar Robertson, the
runnerup. has a 33.6 average on
706 points in 21 games.
While Seattle (14-41. ranked 17th
in The Associated Press poll, con
tinued its pursuit of either an at
large berth in the NCAA cham
pionships or a return to the Na
tional Invitation Tournament. Mi
ami of Ohio and Tennessee Tech
moved closer to' reserved spots in
the NCAA.
Miami, with. Wayne Embry scor
ing 32. rapped Ohio University 86
72 and now needs just one more
victory to clinch no worse than
a share of the Mid-American Con
ference title. Tennessee Tech,
though idle, snared at least a tie
for the Ohio Valley Conference
crown when last-place Eastern
Kentucky knocked off runnerup
Morehead 91-72. Both conference
champions get an automatic berth
in the NCAA playoffs.
Notre Dame, ranked No. 10 and
the at-Iarge pick that will face
either the Mid-American or Ohio
Valley in the NCAA's Mideast re
gional, breezed to a 93-77 deci
sion over New York University.
St. Louis geting a close look
from NIT selectors, clobbered St.
John's of New York, named to
the NIT field today, 105-92 in the
opener of the Madison Square
Garden doubleheader.
Oklahoma State, ranked No. 8
land apparently given a kiss of
1 death when the NCAA picked the
Cowboys as an at-large entry, was
knocked off 52-48 by. Oklahoma.
It was the third consecutive de
feat for the Cowboys since they
were selected.
Massachusetts spiked Holy
Cross' tournament hopes, . defeat
ing the Crusaders for the first
time since 1926 as Ned Larkin
counted two free throws and a
layup in the last 29 seconds for a
64-60 decision.
South Carolina had just one
field goal in the last 4'z minutes,
but sank 11 straight free throws
! beat Clemson 61-60 in the Atlantic
Coast Conference. Furman built
and blew a 17-point lead, but de
leated Richmond 88-82 and kept
alive a hope for a Southern Con
ference tournament berth.
