Narrative:
I was flying a left downwind, turning base for runway 17 at pie. A near collision occurred with another single engine small aircraft flying a left downwind for runway 9 at the same airport. I was cleared to land on runway 17L, and this traffic was never pointed out to me. A pull up and evasive turn was executed immediately to avoid a collision.
