Coach Bill Mansfield's Pelicans have played only five games thus far this season, having won the last four in succession. They have a 2-0 record in Southern Oregon Conference action for second place behind the Medford Black Tornado's record of 4-0. Crater will bring a 3-3 record into the game and two straight one-hit shutout losses to Medford.

Ashland is 1-3 and Grants Pass is 0-4 in other league standings. The Pels were to have played the Cavemen in a twin-bill Tuesday but it was snowed out.

The catching chores could revolve around Dave Johnson, Vern Petrick and Jay Paxton. Others who could see action are Alan Kcnyon and Rich Bath. LA Downs Hawks To Gain Second Series With Celts LOS ANGELES (UP1' Coaches Fred Schaus of the Los Angeles Lakers and Harry Gallatin of the St. Louis Hawks agreed Thursday night the fans make the dif ference. The Lakers downed the Hawks handily Thursday night in the Los Angeles Sports Arena 115-10(1 before a partisan crowd ot I4,8b4 and earned the right to battle the Boston Celtics for the second straight year for the National Basketball Association crown. The Lakers won the Western Division title 4-3 over St. Louis by taking all their home games. St. Louis was equally as tough at home, winning those games. Elgin Baylor sparkled again for the Lakers, scoring 35 points. He was aided by 27 from Jerry West 18 from Dick Barnett and 15 from Rudy Larusso. The Lakers bottled up the Hawks' Cliff Hagan who only managed two points. But the TRENTON ENTRIES IS TRENTON. N.J".

LOOK WHAT WE Friday, n Hawk gunner still had his frac tured left hand taped up, and as Gallatin commented, "it finally caught up with him." Los Angeles got a shining per formance from Gene Wiley who played with a fiberglass cast on the back of his right hand. Wiley grabbed 14 rebounds. As in the previous Laker-Hawk games in the playoff, the team that led in rebounds won the game. The Lakers virtually dom inated the boards, 67-39. Bob Pcttit topped the Hawk scoring with 31 points followed by Len Wilkcns' 20, but the overall team shooting percentage from the floor was only 39 per cent compared to the Lakers' hot 51 per cent. Gallatin complimented the Lak crs shooting from the outside and predicted that if they continue it against the Celtics they will win. The Lakers, after a practice session today, will fly to Boston Saturday for their NBA playoff opener Sunday. The first two games will be in Boston and the next two in Los Angeles.

It was the opening game of the season for the Hornets and the first Rogue League victory. Dur fee's pitching performance emu lated the back-to-back no-hitters by Klamath Union's Gary Benson and Rich Jackson against Ashland in their opening Southern Oregon Conference action. The Henley hurler opened up w ith a w ild streak and walked the first two batters to face him. He then struck out the side. He had six walks during the course of the game and fanned eight. He also had to beat a fine pitching per formance by the Trojans' south paw Marv Davis. He gave up only six hits, walked four and struck out 11 Hornet batsmen. This was the first contest of the season for the Hornets who have, like all the other area schools, been held out of action be cause of bad weather conditions. Sacred Heart had a 3-0 record go ing into this game w ith a w in over Tulelake and a pair of w ins over Chiloquin. But it wasn't all pitching by Dur fee which caused the downfall of the Trojans. He also added two of the six hits for one RBI. The main downfall of the parochial school was its inability to cut down fleet Hornet baserunners. The Hornets swiped nine bases during Bowling Meet At Near Halt BUFFALO. N.Y.

Crume led off with a base on balls and proceeded to steal second and third base. Reiling struck out but Stoehsler flied out to left and Crume scored after the catch.

He tagged the runner and threw to first for the double play. The Hornets finally started hit ting in the sixth inning to chase their final two runs across the plate. Stoehsler led off with an inlicld hit and LeVoy Young flied out to deep left field.
