tonight, having "won theopentng
games of the district tournament
on the Willamette university

mouth defeated the! Chemawa
. 'Indiana 23 -to- 21 in-a- hard

-easier time winning from Uiesh-

Chemawa had made a spectac

. Hatfield dividing scoring honors
with four field goals each. Pre

Monmouth's favor as the teams
were even on field goals- j.
. Report - has It ' that the Mon-
" month boys have been practicing
one handed shots all year and
their performance bore out the
report, - The Indians - played t a
-faster ame in - midcourt but

i MolaDa's J s superiority r over
Gresham was even i more-, pro
nounced than the' score indicat--
ed. : the Clackamas county boys
-working the. ball in for repeated
chances that were missed In the
first, half which ended 8 to 5 in
'.- their favor. : - -; - .
. In the second half Cord ill,
' Eberhard ? and Slyter began . to
- click for Molalla and soon ran
. up a good -margin. Though these
three did most of the scoring,
.Hlbbard was Molalla's actual
star on offense, repeatedly mak
ing plays that gave his team
- mates opportunities for shots. ; j
Molalla uses a set play system
which Coach Ilartung has drilled
Into his men until they have It
letter perfect,- and "Rlbbard is
the fulcrum for nearly all ot the
plays that carry the ball Into
coring position.' For a high
school player, he has a remarks
tble ability to sense scoring: op
portunities, I and unlike most
layers with this ability., he does
sot carry them out too fast for
' his team mates to fit In.
The outcome of tonight's dis
trict, championship game Is much
in doubt. On. the basis of
' Thursday night's showing, Mon
zaouth has the edge because of
its accurate shooting but if Mo
lalla combines better accuracy
" with the team play it exhibited
1 Thursday night It may win. Mo
lalla Is handicapped by the loss
of its center due to an Injury. '
, Gresham showed a lot of spiri
la. the second half but - was too
far behind when it got going, to
make much t of . a threat. -.The
outstanding j thing about the
Gresham players -was their un-
usual though effective style of
shooting. R. - Rutherford ' was
Gresham' leading scorer.

high closed its basketball season
Monday when It was defeated by
Monmouth 4n the county- cham
pionship game. : This game was
the fifth played this year between
Dallas and Monmouth ' with the
Monmouth team taking four. Dal
las high gave Monmouth her only
defeat of the season last Friday
at the tournament .when Dallas
scored a 29 to 2$ 'victory.
Dallas won ' 11 games out of
24 high school games played for
a season percentage- of . 4 S 8 . Dal
las only scored 407 points to her
opponents 430. This record is
not so good when compared with
last .year's team, but Is exception
ally good considering: circum
stances. Dallas had three letter-
men back and. also had a new
coach with an entirely new style
of play. The local fans are not
downhearted at the showing made
and predict that the team next
year will regain the lost-county
championship- if not go as far as
the state tournament.' - " '

Turner But
gh Popping Off
SAN JOSE, CaL, March It,
(AP) Characterizing the pres
ent Portland squad as "the best
since 1922," President. Tom .Tur
ner of the Beavers has remained
otherwise silent since he first saw
the club in action here last Sun
day. ? ' -
"I'm through' popping off,"
Turner said today. "Whatever the
club will do will be up to Mana
ger Spencer Abbott. He'll run the
hall club.", .
Turner's attitude dovetails with
the -new pilot's in every detail.
Abbott made It very plain imme
diately on his arrival here that he
would. run the club, without any
interference.- .
Although he has kept ' himself
in the background, .Turner has
made several statements about the
club, all of which carry an opti
mistic note. ' .'
"We should be in the first di
vision," he admitted. "I'm satis
fied with the outfield, infield and
catching departments. Whatever
we do this year will be strictly up
io the pitchers.": r
ff- The Beavers have a staff of 12
pitchers now. Most ot them are
veterans from last year. Heading
the list are Junk Walters, Oasie
Orwoll and Walter Malls. Oth
ers include Bill Posed el, Joe Bow
man, Curt Fullerton, Andy House,
Ray Keating, Bert Lahtl, Mike So
lonieeff and Verlle Alexander. A
promising local hurler, Wayne Os
borne, has- signed on the dotted
line; while Dick Donelly, former
ly ef Buffalo, has been offered a
contract.
i The Beavers went through ' a
hard practice'session today. -Rain
kept them Indoors yesterday.
Walter Mails, on leave while
coaching the University of Santa
Clara squad, showed up for the
first time today.
Junk Walters' sore arm still is

1 With preparations for spring
sports under way in Salem, Wil-,
lamette university and Salem
high are working together to .fig
ure out some plan to install a
cinder tract to be ueed Jointly
by the. two schools.'
Coach Gllmore of Salem high .
and Coach "Les", Sparks of Wil
lamette, track coaches- of the re
spectlve schools, are both of the
opinion bat it would be much 1
wiser to cooperate and build one
flrsti class track than to ; each
have a mediocre ovaL Coach Gll
more is anxious to Join with Wil
lamette and work for a track on
Sweetland . field, but ' states that
If it can not be obtained this sea
son, that the high school, will
plan to build Its own course on
Olinger field next year. -
A large number of Salem peo
ple are Interested . in seeing the
Cherry City hare a first class -track
and. holding its own In the
spring sport. Salem used to be a -good
, track : town and is now po-' -tentially
one of the, best In the '
Talley. I . i...- ,
-Salem - would make; an ideal
place for a district track meetbe
cause of the central location and
the -large number of. local, folks
who' would j be Interested. How-i :
ever this is not to be thought of "
with -the present facilities J
- More Jobs to be Provided.
.The Klwanis club has noted the ,
local. Interest in building a cin
der track and has got- behind the . 1
movement to the extent of offer--ing
$100 "toward labor on the 1
track providing this be matched'
by. a; like amount and the work
given to the local Unemployed. .
The workmen" for the Job would 1
be named by the local Associated
Charities. Further funds would
be required to pay for the trans
portation of the cinders from
Portland where it Is said that
they are available. However at -the
present time It 4 believed
that the track could he installed ,
with a minimum expense.
Nearly 0 men have turned -
out for track at Salem high and
a fair sized turnout is In evidence
at r Willamette. - This number
would be greatly increased If a 1
good track were available. In ad-.
ditlon to these schools Is Parrish
Junior high ' whiqh might also
benefit, from the course. Another
organization which . already puts
a track team in the- field Is the
Salem T. M. C. A. Last spring the
"Y" track team set up an envi
able record and has a larcrer
number working Out now. The
"Y" - team will engage track
teams from small colleges In the
vicinity and expects to" have a
number of meets, according to
Bob Boardman. physical director.
The Klwanis club has led the
way with the Initial fund offer
ed and if It -can be matched and
a little more raised elsewhere, .
Salem can have a track on which
good representative teams can be
built..-:- .. :.n -. .i i . .
