Al Keck'i Pelicans, following a pair of opening-season wins over RoseburR last weekend, travel to Bend to face the up-and-coming Lava Bears. Preceding the Pelicans on the first road trip of the season will be the Klamalh Falls jun 'jor varsity club ready to face ; the Bend JVs in the preliminary action. J For the Pelicans, the outside shooting of the Lava Bears and Iho home court advantaRe owned by the Bend five are the principal items of concern. Hie Lava Bears have in tho past been extremely strong at home and whether the Pels are able to overcome this has prompted much discussion. Practice sessions this week have been devoted to both of fensive and defensive work de . spite the successful p c r '. formance in bolh departments J last weekend against the In ; dians. Additionally, I h e Pelicans have stressed individual work on slight weaknesses in an ef fort to polish both the attack and the defense. Interest at the home of Iho Bears is al a high pilch follow ing an impressive opening last weekend.

A smaller, but fast and sharp Madras White Buffalo team was the first to fall under the guns of the Bears as a 72-43 victory was recorded. The following night, as if to prove this initial bombardment was not by accident, tlie Lava Bears rolled over the Prineville Cowboys 70-44 after breaking away from a close halftime ad vantage. "In the first half against Prineville, we only hit on 11 of 44 shots. And in the second half. 1 don't know whether to credit our defense or if Prine ville was just cold, but this is where we exploded," comments Hudson on this victory. The Bears' strong suit ap pc;irs to be depth and height. The latter factor is perhaps not as vital as the former, with the Bear height ending at (-4, but with others touching the 6-1 mark. Still, this height does not ap proach that offered by the Rose burg Indians at 6-7, 6-5 and a pair a I 6-2. IJcpihwisc the Bears are in an enviable position, with 15 members of the squad all con sidered by tho head man capa ble of handling a first-five role on any given night. Scoring in the first contests was led by the one of three seniors on the roster forward Jack Ward, standing 6-1.

Last year this talented for ward ended the season as the leading Hcnd scorer with a 12 point average per game. In the Pelican camp the KU head man has warned h i s charges of ". . . an always dangerous and tough opponent" in facing the Lava Bears. "1 feel we'll be all right if the kids come up to their poten tial both offensively and defen sively. "If lliey play such as they did a g a i n s t Roscburg, they could win another. '"Ilic attitude of the club has been good not loo much confi dence following their wins last weekend and certainly not tak ing a team which can score 142 points (liendl in two nights lightly. "We knew our defense will be tested to the limit, but if we can do this job and keep our offense moving, I feel we might be all right." The Lava Bears have been taking a long look at that Peli can olfcn.se, too. They're looking at what they term ". . . Klamath Falls' one two punch of Terry Ash and (ienc Kingsbury." The tremendous offensive work accomplished by this pair last weekend justified this, hut added lo llns oflense is the work guard Lanny Guyer in bolh scoring and feeding. These lluee Pels hit in the double figures both nights against Roscburg and if addi tional scoring punch has been developed this past week il will lake away much of the defen sive pressure sure to be offered these three by the Lava Bars.

It was the Badgers handing the Owls their initial loss of the season last Thursday night in the first game of the NAIA Tip Olf show by a score of 92-61. But in this game the Owls displayed sufficient court know how to give partisan Forest Grove fans a bit of a scare as they led through the first half until some three minulcs re mained., However, at this point tlie Badgers untracked themselves and came on strong to hold a substantial lead at halftime and race on to their lopsided vic tory. It's an experienced and tal ented Badger team facing t h e young Owls, with just one man missing from Jast year's NWC second place club. The Badgers are paced by a pair of all-conference standouts in Leon Johnson 6-0 1 and 6-3 Ken Alcorn.
