But there are no btologi cal reasons for it. The reasons are in differ ences between their jobs, their education and their health care. Many black Americans don t get the benefits of the latest advances in diagnosis and treatment and don t recognize cancer s early warning signals. Better education about cancer is one of the |obs we tackle at the American Cancer Society, in addition to research and services to patients. But all of this takes money. Your money. Give what you can to give black Americans a better chance against cancer ih * 5 e .™ eco st OF LIVIN G . GIVE TO THE AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY? Front pulls upset The Black U nited Front Ghetto A ll-S ta rs, a co lle ction o f current and form er college basketball players and a newly created barn storming team trounced Piedmont Friends Church last Friday by the score o f 131-106. .Then on the fo llo w in g Sunday, the A ll-S tars avCiagcu an c a ilic i loss io KBOO- FM by spanking the listener suppor ted station 120-99. In the firs t game, the A ll-S ta rs awesome fro n tlin e o f Gary Von Wadden, a 6*10, 220 pound center from the University o f Portland and 6’ 8, 245 pound power fo rw a rd Q u into n Braxton (fo rm e r P ilo t eager) dominated the backboards w hile Jose Slaughter, Ullysses T ucker, and super quick Jerry Peterson filled the lanes as they zip ped to a 68-33 halftime lead. Braxton and Slaughter lead the charge with 13 points while Ullysses Tucker added nine. A lso con tributing greatly o ff the bench was D onald D ixon who "s h o o k and to o k ” fo r nine points and James Fergerson pumped in nine big points. Jerry Peterson had eight first h a lf assists and eight points. Von Wadden chipped in ten boards and seven points. The All-Stars started the second h a lf the same way they ended the firs t. A fte r a nasty, rim skaking, crowd screaming, hand slapping, two handed slam dunk by U niver sity o f Portland All-American Jose Slaughter and a length o f the court drive and slam by Gary Von Wad den, the scoreboard spouted a 89-50 score. Piedmont immediately called timeout with 10:21 left in the game. From that point on, the All-Stars relaxed and were outscored 56-42 as Marvin Patten, James Johnson, and big Bobby Flowers fin a lly found their basketball skills. Slaughter ripped three dunks, Von Wadden tw o, and Ullysses Tucker also rose to the occasion. Von Wadden also grabbed 17 re bounds while his board buddy Quin ton Braxton gangstered 15 re bounds. Von Wadden was the only white player on the Black United Front’ s team. High scorers in the game was Jose Slaughter, a sure first round draft pick in next year’ s NBA draft with 28 points, Fergerson 17, Dixon 16, and Peterson had 13 points while Dishing out 17 assists. Donald D ixon , the form er P ilo t star also found the range in the assist depart ment by passing out 15. He also had seven steals. Against KBO O , the A ll-S ta rs came out mad because most o f them wanted to be in fro n t o f the te le v is io n w a tch in g the seventh game o f the B oston-P hilly series. They took out their frustrations on the radio station by taking a quick 20-2 lead with 17:13 left in the first h alf. A fte r a lim e out by KBOO- FM, the All-Stars jumped to a 36-7 lead and the score stood 55-32 at the half. Two m onths ago, KBO O -FM pulled o ff a 111-107 victory over the All-Stars in a benefit for the station and the Front. Since then, the Front has picked up a couple o f fine players in Fergerson, Von Wadden, D ixon , Peterson, and Slaughter. Tucker and Braxton were the only holdovers from the first game The second h a lf resembled a basketball c lin ic w ith Donald " T r ic k y ” Dixon leading the break and dishing out assists to everyone. He finished w ith 13 assists. High scorers in the game were Jose Slaughter and Q u in to n Braxton w ith 27 points w hile G ary Von Wadden and Ullysses Tucker each chipped in 16 points. Von Wadden also had 18 rebounds. A fte r the game, Rick M itc h e ll, player-coach fo r the KBOO team made the following comment: "W e d id n ’ t expect the Front to come in this strong. Last time we handled them pretty easy but it was d ifferent this time. We started o ff very slow and missed some easy shots. You've got to give the Front credit because they really controlled the middle and the boards. Now we want a rubber match.” Ron H unt led KBOO w ith 20 points and 13 rebounds. The All-Stars, playing only their third game, are interested in playing any time in Portland. In thae game against Piedmont Friends Church the proceeds went to the "T a s k Force in A tlanta" to help them find the killer/killers o f the young Blacks there. The proceeds from the KBOO game were split between the radio station and the F ro n t. Those wishing to play the Black U nited Front for a worthy cause should call 286-3426.
