Pels Dropping !(U Trims Lava Bears Saturday To Up Streak To Six Straight By FLOYD WYNNE Herald and News City Editor BEND (Special) Coach Dean White's Klamath Union Pelican cagers gave him an enviable birth day present Saturday night as they defeated the Lava Bears at Bend, 53-41. This wrapped up the 1959 por tion of the Klamath Union basket ball season in undefeated fashion. The Pelicans dropped Bend Fri day night 62-38 at Pelican Court. Lanky guard Paul Bishop poured In 20 points to lead the Pels to victory over a stubborn Bend zone defense. It marked the sixth straight vic DHIr0 II J Rv WAYNE r r 1. 1 ' JM The "ORDER OF O" has been reactivated at Oregon Tech . . . not a new organization by any means, the club is a result of renewed pride and gon Tech athletic award winners in the tact that they may wear a monogram that designates them standout athletes at a school where good athletes abound. Obviously, this is a good . , a good way to cap tne recent the Oregon Collegiate Conference This past week the boys who wore members of the team re ceived jackets, Big "Os" and an emblem identifying them as OCC champions . , . they may wear them proudly. . Elected by the membership, Norm Hooper, Don Anderson and Ralph Norgaarth, all members of the football team, will lead the club during the next year as president, vice president and secretary-treasurer respectively. The group, a service club in every sense, will assist in all ath letic events and many other school activities in time to come. Jim Cordial, the Owl backfield boss, has been picked to, serve as fac ulty adviser for the club which will meet twice each month. It has seen, in recent years, that the Big "0" or "K" or what ever the school letter might be, has been accorded slightly less than the prominence it deserves. I can well remember the day when the wearer of a letter or school sweater, was the lad en vied by every boy In the school that had not been fortunate enough for one reason or another, to have received an award. Even in those days there were boys who didn't care for athletics, were physically unqualified, were just plain beat en out by another boy in compe tition, or had some other in terest which he deemed more im portant. Although there was cer tainly no shame connected with any of these reasons, I can re' call, vividly, that the athlete who wore the letter was automatical ly in an enviable position. And this was good, and it still is. The Owls' revival of the "Or der of 0" is a big step towards restoring these values. Odds and Ends. . . . My vole this year for candidates from our local area to he consid ercd for Prep All-America rank ing went to Klamath Union' John Hancock and Mcdford's Lowell Dean. There are others, of course, who deserve acclaim, but in my mind these two, especially, stand out. Either boy would be a wel come addition to any high school coach's grid roster. All is not exactly peace and light on the local basketball scene . . . official-wise, that is. There have been a grumble or two, to date . . . and not just from the losing coach cither. It is hoped, however, that some of the existing difficulties will be. smoothed out shortly. A new sport, getting quite a bit of attention in other areas, and not entirely overlooked locally, is mov ing into the picture. "Go-Karts," a minuscular type of race-car (adults fit into them) are quite the rage. On Eugene radio the other day I heard quite a sales pitch for the safe, speedy little rigs, as just the thing for the entire family to en joy. I didn't quite follow the an nouncer's thought ... as to wheth er each member of the family should have his own ... or share one. Even Daytona Beach, one of the world's most prominent speed ways has scheduled competition for the "Go-Karts" , . . Sounds Ike fun. Mom , , , keep the bHnd-aids handy. . No more than got the words out of my mouth last week that the Malin Mustangs were the team to beat for the County B cage cham pionship, when they did just that . . got beat. The win was credit tory for the Whitebirds in their non-conference activity and sharp ened their attack for Southern Oregon Conference play which opens on Pelican Court Saturday, January 2, when KU entertains Medford. Saturday night the Pelicans Jed at the end of each quarter, but were hard-pressed to emerge vic torious over a battling pack of Lava Bears. Coach Glen Kinney's Bend quint utilized a well-played zone to stifle the Pels' vaunted scoring attack. Coach White indicated, following the Saturday night 'victory, that he felt his charges were now ready -r Dl ICO SCOTT interest on the part of Ore time to reactivate the club lootnall season when the Uwls won championship. particular loss, however, can not be charged against the Malinites league - wise, so the comment stands. Coach Bob Graham's crew was also working short of a couple of top performers out with the mumps and flu respectively. Shared a glow of pride, I'm sure, with a number of Klamath basketball fans, when I read yes terday that Glenn Moore was lead ing the Oregon Ducks in two capa cities . . . scoring and rebounds . . . Coach Steve Belko has ob served that Glenn is one of the top rookies to show on the Oregon scene in pre-war years ; . . and he didn't mention what war. Dave Robinson, one of the other "big" men on the championship Pel squad, is laying out of basket ball for a season. Also at the U of O, Dave is taking a course that allows him five years of school . . . thus Belko will have some more top talent on hand when next season rolls around. Things I must do . . . make it a point to see at least one session of the Far West Classic next week end. Kind of have my mouth all set to watch both Moore and Bob Niles working on the same court again , . this time on opposite sides ... if the Due'; and the Beavers perchance meet before the tournament is concluded . . . and I hope they do. Having arrived on the KF scene after Butch Kimpton played ball at KU I have never had the oppor tunity to see him in action. . . . From what I hear Butch is no slouch . . . only 6-1, short for to day's game . . . Kimpton has the spring necessary to boost him high enough to "dunk" the ball with two hands . . . going in back wards. Another lad I'd like to see but have never had the chance Is Eugene's Charlie Warren. The Bly Bobcats ... a crew of energetic little men . . . from one of the county's smallest schools, will bear some watching before this season is over. The other night, the Bobcats left a claw- mark or two on the Sacred Heart Trojans before finally falling in the fourth quarter.

The Falcons had trimmed the Pioneers 93-75 Friday night. The Pioneers salvaged one phase of the game, however, beat ing the Falcons in rebounds, 58-49. for conference play. "We have met all types of offenses and de fenses," he said, "and should now be ready to go." Both Bob Lewis and Dean Dun- son were in the double figures col umn beside Bishop. Each had 12 points. Again speedy Wally Donohue was high point man for Bend with 11 counters, closely followed by Mike Riley who tossed in 10. Friday night the Pelicans ral lied from a first quarter deficit to roll into a 30-18 halftime lead and coast home with a 62 to 38 triumph, their fifth of the season. Bend jumped into a quick lead on a two-pointer by the speedy Donohue, but the Pels rebounded to tie it up at 3-all. From that point the first quarter lead see sawed with Bend in possession of a 12 to 10 edge at the end of the session. A new offensive pattern for Coach White's charges began to function smoothly in the second canto, and, with Bishop showing the way by dropping in four from the field, while Dunson. Lewis and Patzke were all adding a pair, the Pels pulled sharply away from the Lava Bears. The third quarter score showed the Pels with a 20-point edge at 47-27. Bishop, Lewis, Patzke and Dun- son all hit in double figures with Bishop taking game honors with 17 points, Lewis and Patzke add ing an even dozen each, and Dun- son 10. The Klamath Union Jayvees also defeated the Bend Jayvees both Friday and Saturday night. Friday the score was 64-38, and Saturday they added a 52-23 triumph. SATURDAY CAMP.

Chuck Newcomb of the losers oulscorcd Oregon's sophomore sensation, Glenn Moore, 29-24, but Moore got more aid from his teammates. Another Oregon soph, Charlie Warren, contributed 20, and senior Chuck Rask turned in a standout defensive perform ance. Oregon jumped into an 11-point lead midway in the first half but a Colorado surge reduced the margin to 28-28 at halftime. It stayed close until late in the sec ond half when Warren went on a scoring spree, getting eight points in the final three minutes. The visitors had a height ad vantage but Oregon was quicker off the backboards, holding a re bound advantage of 52 to 40. It also outshot Colorado, with a field percentage bulge of 44-39. Some of Colorado's troubles stemmed from the desperate ef forts to contain Moore, who has been a scoring wizard in all of Oregon's games. Defenders as signed to him committed eleven fouls. Two of them, Tony Reals and Manny Lawrence, were sent out with five infractions. roia. ui v () ro rT rr TP Newcnmb 13 3- 5- S Htmner Whalen Lawrenr MrFarland Reales Hunsaker Turner r.illrn Orlander Totals Oman TI Warren Hrrron Moor Rask Strirktand Kimplon Robertson Talals Colo Stsla U Orcfon 0 3 0 0 0 3 0 e 0- I) 5- S 2- 3 0- 2 1- I 2- 3 0- 0 0- 0 !?

The win was the second straight Jack victory racked up at the expense of the Owls Friday night they dumped the OTI squad 56-48. Larry Krupka, a 6-6 sophomore Lumberjack who was the big gun in the Friday scrap, was held to only one field goal in the first half of the Saturday test, but add ed six for eight at the foul line plus a pair of timely tip-ins in the second period to put the clinch er on the Owls in much the same fashion as he did Friday. Saturday the Owls jumped off to a 10-2 lead by the time the game was five minutes old but the Lumberjacks came back and battled the Techmen point-for-point throughout the remainder of the period. The scoring was tied five times before the half ended 23-22 for Humboldt. In the second frame the Owls again got a short-lived jump but soon the test settled into a ding dong affair which saw the lead change five times before the Jacks got out to a 45-38 lead with 4:00 left in the game. Here Big Paul Layher rebound ed a two-pointer, Dennis McKee canned a jumper from the corner, the Owls closed to 47-42 and slapped full-court press on the Jacks. The strategy paid off when little Leon Wilson stole the ball and scooted for a layup plus a suc cessful free toss off a foul in curred en route. This moved the count to 47-45 with 1:40 left. Four teen seconds later McKee drove for two points that hooked the score at 47-all. In the ensuing action-packed 34 seconds Krupka Scoreboard By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS .
