Does this put (he kiss of death on them . . . this, and the other highly favorable publicity they're getting around the state? I don't think so. At one time I used to be a little afraid to tell a young ath lete I thought he was a potential champion.

Makes sense, doesn't it? The truly great athlete . . . once he sees big things ahead . . . never rests on the "big" things he may have done in the past, but gets in and digs, digs harder than he ever did before. So ...

The victory was the third con secutive conference triumph fori Coach Dean White's charges who belted Ashland Friday night 63 to 23 on the Grizzlie's court. For three quarters the Saturday night clash was a "nip-and-tucker" with the Pels holding the lead but the Cavemen threatening. KU held a seven point 50-43 edge to open the final quarter and ran 14 points before the visitors could counter a point. W a 1 1 y Palmberg and Fred Biehn paced the 14 point barrage that sank the Cavemen hopes for an upset tri umph. Grants Pass held the lead for only the first minute of the game. Larry Janssen sunk a push shot with the game five seconds old to give Coach Gordon Prelim's team a short-lived lead. Biehn coun tered a gift toss on a foul shot and Bob Lewellyn added another point for Grants Pass on a free throw. Palmberg High Wally Palmberg who was the game's lop scoter with 27 points scored from outside with 1:05 gone in the first quarter to tie the game at 3-all. He came back 25 seconds later with another two-pointer and that put the Pels in front, a lead they never gave up although Grants Pass closed to a single point a number of times in the first three quarters. Palmberg again provided the ol fensive spark for the Pels as he scored 10 of their first 17 points and poured ir 10 field goals and seven of 10 free throws for his 27 point total. Klamath held quarter leads of 17-14, 38-35 and 50-43. The big scoring splurge of the night came in that fourth quar ter for the Pels. Biehn opened the scoring with the quarter 10 seconds old and Palmberg followed 30 sec onds later. Biehn added another1 two counter, then sunk three free tosses on two separate fouls. This made the score 59-43. . Palmberg dumped in a charity toss, Gary Patzke, the game s second high scorer at 16 points, counted two free throws, Palm berg a gift loss and Bob Lapslcy a free throw to make it 64 to 43.
