The contest, which saw the Peli cans utilize the services of a num ber of eager freshmen called up as replacements for injured KU regulars, broke up a tie for the last place position in conference standings. Ashland, 3-5 for the sea con, stepped into fourth place, while the Pelicans 1-8, tumbled off the bottom step. Meanwhile, at Grants Pass, Medford earned the right to enter the state quarter finals after holding the Cavemen to a scoreless tie. The Tornadoes were awarded playoff rights by virtue of yardage gained in the test. The Medford-Grants Pass tie left the SOC conference lead split between the two. In the dressing-room following the ill-fated match with the Griz zlies Pelican coach Andy Knudsen eaid, "The boys p 1 a y e d as hard as they could the thing that beat us was the lack of experi ence. Still, if it hadn't been for the freshmen it's hard to say what might have happened. Do you re alize that if we had to play a game tomorrow we would have only two players that started the game against Marshfield at the first of the season Weber (Ron) and Story (Don), in the lineup. Injuries have really hurt us this year. Tonight we lost Olvera, In iley and Larry Bunyard." Bunyard, who as Knudsen put It, "Gutted it out," following a leg Iniury incurred in practice, was kicked in the head during the game and required a doctor's at tention after the bout. Althougn nis injury was not deemed serious, the hardy KU end was taken to the hospital to be kept over night for observation. Ron Olvera, a halfback, twisted an ar.kle that sidelined him and tackle Nick Insley, a mainstay in the KU line, was . downed wan a "hip-pointer." Knudsen was full of .praise for the freshmen who performed so fcU in their relief roles. "Gary Buchholz (quarterback), David Stippich (end), Earl Brinson (half back) and Ken Cooper (lineman) all did a fine job. We can expect ereat things of them in the suture," stated Knudsen. "Ron House played a good game, both defensively and offensively and so did Insley. Bill banto did a fine job of running tonight and he was helped a lot by insley. Gary Burt, Wayne Dennis and Lar ry Bunyard have to be compliment' d for the work they did on de fense," he added. The opening seconds of the game looked black for the Whitebirds as Alan McKinnis. the Grizzly full back, broke away on the play fo tow ns the Pel kickoltana robbed 35 yards before being hunted down in a last ditch stand by Ron House. Four plays later however, alter losing 30 yards on thweround. Ashland was forced toWint. Here the Pels took over arBOstarted an 11-play drive that wafcgood for 51 yards and culmi itarrt in a one yard plunge by HqJJe that gave the Pels a TD and-a six point lead.

Jack Riley tossed one that was in tercepted by Ashland quarterback Gridiron Scoreboard By PRESS Bob Voris. On the next plav. McKinnis broke through the mid dle and went 48 vards for an Ashland TD. Halfback Steve Gray's conversion run missed and the score was lied 6-6 with 1:20 left in the first period. In the second frame penalties left their marks on the Pelican advance as Earl Brinson hauled in an aerial from Quarterback Jack Riley and romped 46 yards for payoirt, almost. A clipping penal ty on the Pels called the play oacK ana tney had to start over. hive plays later the Pels notched their second touchdown as Bill San to put together runs of 20, six and one yards, to score. Again Santo missed the conversion try and the score was 12-6 for Klam ath. Ashland caught up with 1:30 left in the half as a pass by quarter back Gary Buchholz was intercept ed by Phil Tucker, who sped 43 yards lor the second Ashland TD. They forged a one point lead, 13-12, as voris connected with Gray in the end zone for the conversion. A KU fumble after the kickoff was nullified by a pass intercep tion by Brinson, followed by a suc cessful, 8-yard toss by Eddio Matt- miller to Santo as the gun sound ed. Mattmiller was switched from the line to the backfield to help in the passing department. Early in the third stanza the pendulum swung in favor of Ash land as Jack Riley fumbled on the 32 and the Grizzlies took over. A one man show by McKinnis ended 1n an another Ashland TD and the Grizzlies had a 20 12 spread, after Dennis Johnson ran for the conversion. Despite a march that took them to within 15 yards of the Ashland goal the Pelicans lost the ball on downs and the Grizzlies were off again. Their next touchdown came seconds later as Voris passed to Gray who went 64 yards for a score. The Pels were to score no more during the game while Ashland picked up another counter as Steve Gray tossed a 36-yard touchdown pass to end Verne Spcirs, making the score for Ashland 33, the Pels went on a move that netted them three first downs but failed to pro duce a score, before the final horn sounded.

But the Ducklings took to the air to set up the equalizer. Frank Guisti went .14 yards for the touchdown. A pass from quarter back Jim Suter to Jim Sandness put Oregon ahead. 8-7. On the last play of the third quarter Mike Gaetcher took a handoff and ran 54-yards for the clincher. Another aerial gave the Ducklings two more points and a 16-7 victory. Oregon Tech basketball coach Wally Palmbcrg completed his first week of drills as the Owls open defense of their Oregon Col legiate Conference basketball crowns won in 1956-57 and 1957-58 under his guidance. This is Palmbcrg's fifth season at the helm of the Tech cage pro gram, and if he wins the OCC title again this year, he will set a new three-in-a-row precedent. The immediate outlook for this year's basketball fortunes is not good. Palmbcrg has a turnout of 16 boys working, but only a hand ful of these have experience. Let- terman Dell Francis is the only returning eager working under Palmbcrg's direction this past week. JC transfer Paul Layhcr and freshmen guards Dennis McKee of Salem and Leon Wilson of Tulsa, Oklahoma, spearhead the Owl prospects. Palmberg will be without the services of 6-9 Charlie Bogle, all conference center, who was dropped from the squad. Bogle has since dropped out of school. The Owl basketballers are ex pected to get a big boost from the football team at the close of the OTI grid season. Arnold Met calf, Allen Jones, Otis Foster, Charlie Wilson, Ralph Norgaard, Roy Johnson and the two Dick brothers. Tom and Don, are all destined to turn out for basketball as soon as they shed their football gear. Norgaard and Wilson are both lettermen from last year's confer ence championship team. Norm Oliva, a lumor transfer from Southern Oregon College, is working out with the Owls but will not become eligible until the lat ter part of January. Oliva, wait ing out the OCC transfer rule, was all-conference selection as a freshman at SOC and last season was one of the league's top re bounders. The 6-4 eager from Ma lm will give lech a big lift when his waiting time is through. The Owls open their season De cember 5-6 when they host Hum boldt State College in a pair of games.

(AP) Akcn- ny Lane, the No. 1 lightweight' contender, is willing to fight John ny Busso for the right to box Joe Brown for the title. Busso's name was kicked around this week after he upset Brown in Miami. "If they are talking about Brown and Busso, why not match me with Busso for an elimination said Lane after scraping past La-'ton in July. houari Godih on a split 10-round decision Friday night. Jack Barrett, International Box ing Club matchmaker, was more interested in pairing Lane with Carlos Ortiz, the No. 3 boy in the rankings. Jack Kearns, copilot of Lane still has his eye on a rematch with Brown who beat the Mus kegon, Mich., southpaw at Hous- Jeff Notches Win;; Medford, G.P, Tie By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Unbeaten Jefferson of Portland smashed Cleveland 31-0 for a 20th consecutive victory Friday night but Medford was tied 0-0 by Grants Pass in Oregon high school football. The Jefferson Democrats ranked No. 1 all season in the Associated Press poll and Med ford was No. 2. Mel Renfro, who lead the at tack, romped 74 yards for one touchdown, then snagged a lateral pass and went 36 yards for another. Cleveland's Norm Patera, who carried the brunt of the attack for his team, failed to score. The 31 Jefferson points boosted the team's season total to 417, exactly 100 more than the old rec ord for a team during one sea son. The former record of 317 was set by Washington in 1920. Medford's major edge in yard age gained gave them the right to enter the stale tourney for dis trict six. Medford outgained Grants Pass 237 yards to 85 yards. Grants Pass twice slopped Med ford within the 10 yard line. while Medford held Grants Pass once within the one-foot line. No. 3 North Salem was dumped 13-0 by Prineville, but North Salem qualified two weeks ago for the quarter-finals as the dis trict eight representative. Marshfield, fourth, belted North Bend, eighth. 28-14, which gave Ihem the Midwestern League ti tle. Astoria, tied with Marshfield in fourth, tied Gresham 12-12. This gave Astoria the Metro League Championship and a tourney berth. Gresham's Chuck Peterson led a last-minute touchdown march which tied the score, but his ex tra point kick missed by inches.
