A whole lot of shakin’ goin’ on
by Jerry Ulmer
Columnist________________
Yes, the Blazers screwed up
pretty good in passing up Michael
Jordan for Sam Bowie. It’s com­
mon knowledge. But it seems that
there’s a bandwagon cruising
around town that theorizes that
the Blazer brass could not dif­
ferentiate between Larry Bird and
Blazer Bill on draft day. Not so.
No, this is not the rah-rah Blazer
Page from This Week Magazine
but it says here that Bucky
Buckwaiter has excelled over re­
cent drafts, possibly making up
for the big boo-boo.
Buckwaiter’s prize has to be
nabbing Jerome Kersey in the se­
cond round from Longwood Col­
lege. Terry Porter was picked
from an NAIA school and has
blossomed into a top point
guard. Critics love to mention the
selection of Walter Berry, but
didn’t the Blazers get Kevin
Duckworth out of that draft? So
what if the Blazers picked Rus­
sian Arvidas Sabonis, it was
either him or Greg Dreiling. The
jury is still out on Ronnie Mur­
phy (Portland could have selected
Mark Jackson), and when it
comes back in it likely will be
overweight.

On the subject of drafts, the
Charlotte Hornets and Miami
Heat will join the NBA next year
following an expansion draft.
Each NBA team protects eight
players and then the Hornets and
Heat get the tablescraps. Expan­
sion teams generally end up with
players slightly less coveted than
General Noriega. But regardless
SE
of who fills out their rosters
there’s little question whether
they’ll be able to stick it to the
Clippers. Here’s a guess list of
who might be available, noting
that the Blazers will protect Sam
Bowie:
GUARDS— Dirk Minniefield,
Scott Skiles, Steve Colter, Steve
Alford, Michael Adams, Mike
Evans, Lester Conner, Darnell
Valentine, Wes Matthews,
Michael Holton, Rickey Green,
Spud Webb, John Battle, An­
drew Toney, Darrell Walker,
T.R. Dunn, Otis Smith, World
Free, Milt Wagner, Bernard
Thompson, Ronnie Murphy,
Jerry Sichting.
FORWARDS— Al Wood,
Reggie Lewis, Mike Sanders,
Jerry Reynolds, Danny Vranes,
Mark Alarie, Tellis Frank, Buck
Johnson, Terry Tyler, Ed Pin­
ckney, Russ Schoene, Fred
Roberts, Mike Brown, Charles
Jones, Jerome Whitehead, Earl
Cureton, Mike Smrek, James
Bailey, Caldwell Jones, Jawaan
Oldham.
CENTERS— Chris Washburn,
Artis Gilmore, Kent Benson,
James Edwards, William Bed­
ford, Stuart Gray, Paul Mokeski,
Chris Welp, Mark McNamara,
Uwe Blab, Bill Wennington,
Dave Feitl, Greg Kite, Petur
Gudmundsson, Bill Walton.
•Oregon State will save
$250,000 by cutting its track pro­
gram next year. I know it’s tough
for Oregonians to accept that
there will be no more great
moments in OSU track, but we
just have to swallow hard and go
on. What will they do with the
extra dough? You know it’s not
going into the football program.
It likely will go to a group of
OSU scientists experimenting on
a vaccine for bad breath.
“Johnny Be Good,” a new
movie released starring Anthony
Michael Hall, answered some key
questions - unfortunately the
wrong ones. We now know that
Hall, who played an illegally
recruited high school quarter­
back, can’t carry a movie by
himself. This movie missed an ex­
cellent opportunity to make a
statement about recruiting viola­
tions and the turmoil surrounding
the families involved. Instead, the
plot insulted us by laying a path
of tacky, exaggerated characters

Baseball season is here. Here’s
how they’ll finish:

Yankees (the pitching is finally
there, watch out for rookie Al
Leiter)
AL WEST - Oakland (Canseco

the Twins will finish under .500)
NL EAST - New York Mets

been there, now the hitting is)

9. Part of “power carpool” of

8. Front office fears nasty letter

7. Refuses to play better until the

6. Coach Knox thinks he looks
like Y.A. Tittle with hair.
5. His knowledge of Kingdome

4. While being slow footed and
an erratic passer, he is a compas­

3. Saving him for when bounce

2. Only quarterback in AFC who

After a disappointing third
place finish in league competition
last season, the Clackamas men’s
baseball team appears to have
what it takes to turn this season
into a winning one.
Coach Paul Roe der seems con­
fident that his .'sophomore

more success than did last year’s
dub. “Our goal is to win the
whole dang thing. We do have
the horses to do it,” said Roeder.
The Cougars have been hit by il­
lness and injury which has caused
some problems during the exhibi­
tion schedule. “Illness has cer­
tainly hurt us this spring,”
remarked coach Roeder.

Jim Bvmette got off to a tough
start, getting stung for five first
inning runs en route to a 8-5
Qackamas loss. Next up for the
Cougars was the Canadian na­
tional team. Clackamas played a
competitive game through five in­
nings, but a big sixth inning by
the Canadians lifted them to a
22-10 victory. Greg Martin suf­
fered the loss for Clackamas.
In the third game, Steve
Huffaker pitched very strong for
Qackamas, allowing only two
earned runs. The Cougars out hit
Yakima, 6-3 but five costly errors
killed them.
Mental errors again proved
costly, as they fell to cross town
rival Mt. Hood 4-1. The first
Saint run was balked in, and
another error by the Cougars set
the stage for a three run homer by
Mt. Hood to lift them to 4-1.
Qackamas ended that tourna­
ment with a 1-4 record.
