Grant won two more games last week, and . ran its season record to 10-0. The Generals thus are the only undefeated squad m the Top 10. The Generals picked up 11 first-place votes from the 16 sports writers and sports casters that participated in the third poll the season. The big shuffle began in the No. 2 position, as South Salem moved into the polls runner-up spot. Grant accumulated 155 points. North Salem got 137, and receiv ed three nods for first place.

Coach Al Samples and his Bly Bobcat cagers, resting out front ol the field with a 7-won, l loss record, step safely out of confer ence tonight to do battle with coach Hank Smith's KU sophomore Wildcats, the game, a rcUirn match to be played at Bly. For the Bob- eats the contest marks an oppor tunny lo gain revenge for the M- 50 defeat handed them when they paid thoj Wildcats a "visit on Pell can Court earlier in the season. The Merrill Huskies and the Ma- lin Mustangs, each 5-2 for con ference play and lied for the No. 2 spot on Ihe league ladder, arc set for the tie-breaker tonight on the Merrill floor. Coach Al heck and his 1958 district champs have turned back the Mustangs twice previously this season; the first lime by a narrow 45-44, the second, 52.39. . Bob Croft s Malm squad, after getting off to a slow start. is accorded one of the most im proved teams in the league and the contest should prove heated. Jerry hempf s Sacred Heart Trojans arc destined to stand still on the ladder regardless of the outcome of tonight's pairing with coach Ted Ammerman's Henley Hornets. Any games played with Henley, the" lone A-2 school in the county, do not count in conference action. The two squads have met once previously with the Hornets coming out on top, 5o-43. The game set for the Trojan home maple- wood. Coach Gordie Kuist s Chiloquin Panthers, who came close to knocking n! Ihe league-leading Bly squad the last time out, get an opportunity to catch up with the Sacred Heart crew by tangling with the Bonanza Antlers of coach Erv Ellis. The Panthers have won three and lost four in league play. The Antlers, who failed to hit their stride, always coming close, the early games, broke into the wiri column just last week as they dusted off the-Gilchrist Grizzlies 60-34. The Antler-Panther battle will take place at Bonanza. County Scoring Leaders poll, Kentucky drew 41 first place votes to 27 for North Carolina. Last week the Wildcats topped the Tar Heels in first place votes 38 to 33. The balloting was based on games through last Saturday. It was closer in the point total Kentucky !-! had 1.155 points to 1 .097 for North Carolina (10-H Kansas State was a distant third despite 16 first place nominations. The Wildcats (13-1 attracted 786 points and didn't budge out of last week s position. Because ot Ihe comparatively little action due to the mid year examinations, there was very little change among Ihe top ten. Kentucky and Bradley will be the busiest of Ihe top ten clubs this week. Each has three games scheduled. St. John's faces the toughest assignment, having to play strong St. Louis and Loyola on foreign courts.

The Cats defeated Lost River DeMolay 43-17 with Keith Larson scoring 12 for the winners. At half time, the DeMolays trailed 30-16. In the other game, Don Hamil ton scored 21 points to spark Farm ers Sand and Gravel to a lop sided 64-18 triumph over Drace's Celtics With the exception of Paul Bish op who is working out daily in an effort to regain his timing and shooting eye after returning to ac tion from a four-week seige of the mumps there has been absolutely no activity on the KU Pelican var sity basketball practice floor this week. Nor is any planned until Wednesday afternoon, and only then provided the Pels have shaken off the effects of the miser able colds that have made them penicillin targets for the last two weeks. . "It's not that we are taking Crater and Ashland, our games tins weekend, lightly, commented coach Dean While, "It's just that the boys need the same rest that doctors have been advising for everyone else around town who has been hit by the same bug. There is always a need for practice but sometimes it may do you more harm than good. I think the boys will be ready for Crater and Ash land, though. The "bug" took its toll of Ihe Pelicans last weekend when they were hit the hardest midway llirough the important game with the Medford Black Tornado, last Friday. The 66-48 defeat dropped the erstwhile league leading Pels into the third place position, per centage points behind Grants Pass. The Pels bounced back on Satur day night after a good rest and soundly whipped the heretofore un beaten Bend Lava Bears in a non counter, with a convincing 60-49 count. For th Pelicans who have col lected wins over each of the other Southern Oregon conference schools, the bouts with Crater and Ashland are naturally return en gagements. The KU squad treks the Green Springs Friday mgnt to meet Don Anielak s Crater Com ets on the Central Point Court then returns home for the Ashland Grizzlies Saturday on Pelican Court. KU whipped Crater 62-40 t h c first time around and humbled Ashland 54-38. In both games the full complement of WhiteblrdS got into the act. Other action slated for Pelican Court this weekend sees the KU Wildcats of coach Hank Smith and coach Bob Johnson's Frosh host ing their counterparts from Lake view. The games are to begin at 8:30 Friday night at Klamath Un ion. Saturday afternoon the Klamath Union Freshmen swing over to Medford to meet the McLoughlin Junior High cagers in another re turn engagement. Reserved seat tickets to action on the home front are presently on sale at the chamber of commerce. while others were not as fortun- ite. Robertson led Ihe fifth- ranked Bearcats to a 73-52 victo ry over Drake in a Missouri Val ley Conference game. Boozer hit for 21 poinis in Kan sas State's 78-55 romp over Iowa State in a Big Eight contest. Cox supplied the impetus with an 13 point performance in Kentucky's 04-70 lacing of Georgia Tech. West Virginia took the lead for the first time with 4:10 to go on West's fielder as the Mountain eers won their 43rd straight South ern Conference game, 77-67 over George Washington. Johnson tallied 28 points and led a rebounding parade as Minnesota downed Illinois 81-70 in a Big Ten game. Crosthwaite teamed with Charley Osborne for 51 points as Western Kentucky avenged a De cember defeat hy LaSalle with a 96-74 victory. Conversely, Coleman was held o 16 points 14 under his season average as Miami, rla. beat Kentucky Wesleyan, 69-64. Former Big Ten scoring leader Clarence Wordlaw could manage only 11 points for Iowa as the Hawks lost to Ohio State 86-72 in the only other Big Ten action. n other major action, Don Smith scored 26 points for ninth-r a n k e d Bradley in the Braves 77-63 victory over the Uni versity of Detroit and Ted Luck cnbill and Gary Phillips com bined lo score 54 points in Hous ton's 88-58 win over North Texas Slate. Both were Missouri Valley Conference games. Robertson helped Cincy to a 17- point first half lead with 16 points and scored 27 overall. He hauled down 17 rebounds and held Drake ace gob Tecler to seven points in the first half. Teeler led Drake scorers with 17 points. K-State, ranked third in this week's Associated Press poll, turned on a torrid second half to up their record to 14-1. The Wild cats had a slim 30-29 halftime lead hut Boozer got help from Dave Douglas who scored 18 points for the runaway. George Washington had a hefty 42-30 halftime lead over the 10th ranked West Virginians and upped this to 46-32 early in the second half before West and some Moun taineer bench strength led the comeback. The top-ranked Wildcats, who have a 14-1 record, wouldn't let history repeat Itself.

Boom Boom Points Leader MONTREAL (API Boom Boom Geoffrion, hard shooting right winger of the Montreal Canadiens, continued to head the National Hockey League's individual scor ing parade today. But the big question is, "Does he lead by one point or two?" The official statistics show mat Geoffrion has 57 points, one more than Andy Bathgate of New York. Each picked up three points in last week's games. However, newspaper accounts ot Sunday's, game m Detroit had Geoffrion contributing one goal and two assists. The official score sheet lists the Canadiens' star with only a goal and one assist. The Detroit official scorer, Doug Young, said Monday night he had given Geoffrion two assists.
