that the Orioles have the best in

better even than that of the New

"Luis might be right when he
says the Orioles infield is better
than the Yankees." said Griffith,
"but I'd have to say the Twins
are better than the Orioles. Luis
is slightly prejudiced toward his
home team and that's good. But
let's be objective."

The Klamath Union Pelicans re
mained, mathematically, in the
running for a state tournament
berth at Pelican Court Friday
night when they whipped the
never-say-die Ashland Grizzlies.
55-51, despite having one of their
near-patented last quarter col
lapses, and snapped a five-game
losing streak.
Coach Al Keek's Whilebirds
traveled to Grants Pass Saturday
night for a game with the de
fending state champion Cavemen
in a must game, as most of
them this year have been.
Medford pulled into the lead
with a 58-52 win over Grants
Pass Friday night and tops the
league with a 9-5 record. Grants
Pass and Crater were tied for
second with 8-5 records while
Klamath had a 7-6 mark and Ash
land 2-12. The Pelicans must beat
Grants Pass and then measure
Medford next week. They also
need assistance from Ashland who
met Crater Saturday night.
The Pelicans, with as much as
17-point lead at one time al
most blew the game in the last
period when Ashland applied the
press. The Whitebirds had to use
their gift shots at the line to
win the game. They didn't make
a Held goal in the last quarter
and only four in the last half
Only the free throw shooting of
Gi over Dahn, Bob H o 1 m a n
and Lanny Guyer saved the day
for them in the fourth period
Coach Keek's crew won the
game from the line because the
Grizzlies had one more field goal
than the Pels, 17-16. But the
Whitebirds tallied on 23 of 34 foul
shots. Ashland committed 22 per
sonals and Klamath 18.
The Whitebirds took the lead
in the lirst period ana neia it
throughout the game. Rick Pierce
got the first two points of the
game and that was the last time
that Ashland led. Dahn tied the
game on a jumper and Don Pi
per, who played a great game, hit
pair of charities to put the
Pels in the lead to stay. They
built up a 15-10 first period lead.
The margin remained about the
same throughout the second peri
od as Wayne Chamberland
warmed up and began hitting
frequently. He tallied eight of
the 18 points in the second. The
Pels finished with a 33-22 half
time lead.
The third period slowed down
and the Pelicans tallied 12 points
to 11 for the Grizzlies. Chamber-
land again led the way with four
points.
But then began the near-fatal
fourth. Greg Lindley hit a jump
er to open the fourth to chop the
margin lo 10 poinU, 43a and Bob
Holman hit a pair of gift shots.
At that point, with 7:19 left in
the game, the Grizzlies applied
the press which shook the Pell
cans. The Grizzlies took advan
tage of the shaky position of tile
Pels on the press and hit for
eight straight points, all, oddly
enough, on outside shots which
they hit with deadly accuracy,
o slice the margin quickly to
47-43 with 4:02 remaining.
But the Pelican guards began
to pick up fouls the way they
should against the press and that
saved them. Dahn. Guyer and
Chamberland worked for the
fouls. Dahn hit five from the gift
line and Guyer two. Then, with
3:48 left and holding a 51-45 lead,
the Pelicans began an effective
stall. They drew more fouls and
controlled the ball.
Chamberland, hitting half of his
field shots, led the Pelicans with
16 points. Dahn was second with
13. He had 13 charity shots and
hit only seven of them or would
have had more. Piper chipped in
with 11 points, five from the line
in six attempts.
Jim Lamb led the Grizzlies with
It points while Pierce and Dale
Tepper each potted 10 points. The
Pelicans hit on 16 of 45 shots
for .356 per cent while Ashland
connected on 17 of 47 for .362 per
cent. The Pelicans had the best
of the rebound department with
33 to Ashland's 24. Chamberland
led the Pels with 13 while Fred
Kellcy did a good job with nine
and Piper turned up with seven.
Mike Cotton had seven and
Lamb six for the losers.
Marquette Axes
Xavier, 80-67
CINCINNATI (UPD-NIT-bound
Marquette surged ahead late in
the second half Saturday night to
defeat Xavier 80-67.
Xavier, which finished tlie sea
son with a 10-16 record while the
Warriors are 17-7 with one regu
lar game to go, held a 23-11 lead
with 8:59 to go in the first half
behind the scoring efforts of Bob
Pelkincton, who racked up 24
noints and 23 rebounds tor tne
game.
The Warriors, sparked by Hon
G laser with 14 of his 24 points
coming in the first half, caught
up at halftime. 35-34. but fell
back in the opening minutes ol
the second half with the Muske
teers having a three-point lead.
Then Dick Nixon turned on the
steam, collecting six straight
points, to send S!arqueue aneao
