Good Turnout Of
Fans Yearning For Wsnnirsg Season

iji JI Hil I
mmm M mm m m mmm m m m
By NEIL
Observer
There is a new league, a new season and new hope beat-
nS the hearts of La Grande
Coach Jack Kainey Greeted
lettermen, for the Tiger hoop
drills. The Tiger crew boast
jnttc spirit. " ,
The Tiger mentor, starting
r.as must 01 dim firuuiema in
hand. Jleading the list of vet-
erans is the "Must Valuable
Player," Hay Westenskow .the
man who got the most rebounds,
and also Buck Corey and the man
with the most points, Jirn Mil
liard. The Tigers' most soiious prob
lem, as they rirll for their first
season of competition in the In
termounlain c nference, is their
"m.
Hod Chandler
(63) is the tallest member of the
squad likely to see action. Three
more players to? the mark at 6-
Corey, Gary Vol uz. .and Hon
Coleman. From there on it's all
down. Bob Robeson and Erin En
dicott both stand in at 6-0 even.
Many Hopefuls
The list of lettermen inclirles
Westenskow 5-10i. Dave Carman
'5-11, Ken Ilildebrandt '5-llr,
Stevo Smith (5-9), Corey and Bil
liard (5-11), Robeson and Chand
ler. Five more candidates are
senio. s in addition to the I tt r-
men. Tliey include Dale Peterson
(5-10). Rc.n Coleman (6-2), Johni
D?Bolc (5-9', Endicott and Gary
Miller (5-9).
The "core" of the ball club
will come from this solid group
of tested performers. Th- only
three jun'ors who have a chance
to make the ciub at this early
spot are Buddy Milliard, Dick
Marks and Voruz.
Milliard, displaying the same
deft touch employed by brother
Jim, and Marks paced the junior
varsity in scoring last year. Vor
Ui, at 205 pounds, will give some
backboard beef needed to bol
s'.er the varsil squad and provide
relief for the veterans.
The Tiger speed comes from
Carman, Milliard. Corey. Robe
Son and Deboic. Carman is rated
one of the top sprinters in East
em Oregon. Milliard is a football
halfback who had his season cut
short by a broken wrist. Both
boys possess that quick, power
speed. Robeson and Deboie have
the deceptive speed and quick
ness so essential to getting points.
Goad Spirit
The spirit is a carry-over from
the Tigers' successful grid sea
son. The Tiger hoop squad will
have eight members cf the foot
ball squad suited up for their
games. The spirit generated by
the La Grande drive for top con
ference honors is being carried
over to the hardwood and could
be a decisive factor in their suc
cess. Milliard will be the main
threat to the opposition. He has
a quick, cat like grace that fre
quently breaks him loose under
the backboard for lay-ins. He can
also score from the outside with
a variety of shots.
Rebounding duties will fall on
the husky shoulders of Corey.
Coleman, Chandler and Voruz.
Once league play starts, this
quartet will be called on night
r.fter night to control the boards
against teams that possess great
el height. Their ability and suc
cess could very well make or
break the Tigers' chances.
