The Bearcats, though not as accurate In shoot ing; as is their wont because of too much "cramming" in the past week, worked their plays better and outscored the visitors in the matter of field goals. ..Union' Oil climbed to a 16 to IX lead at half time, but early in the second half, with Spec Keene's rangiest combination on the floor, the Bearcats staged a speedy rally and soon bad a sub stantial lead. The role played by Jack Connors in this attack was an eye-opener to the fans, Near the close the oilmen ral lied right back, but principally from the foul line. ."Chief Mc Lean, back in Portland after a semester at Southern Oregon Nor mal, tossed in a long one that really decided the contest. As evidence of Willamette's im provement on offense, Ralph Calr ney, the visitors' ace scorer In the first game, was held to one field goal. Vincent Dolp proved to be the hard man to corral this time, as he piled up a high point total of 11. Field goals were evenly divided among six Bearcats, each getting two.

WHITEHILL AND LLOYD BROWN ' With numerous top-notch grap- plers now active In the northwest and available for billing In Salem, Matchmaker Harry Plant selected for this week's show. Tuesday night at the armory, a headllner which will bring together Henry Jones, king of the welters, and Ray Lyness, somewhat of a leader in the middleweight ranks, as ho held at one time the Junior mid dleweight world crown, which now adorns the brow of Wildcat Pete. Put Henry Jones In the arena with any grappler who Is capable of making him step, and a good evening s entertainment is assur ed. That Lyness tills the bill is evidenced by the fact tSat he has at least twice defeated Jones, the more recent occasion being lust a few weeks ago in Bellingham. The other resnlted in the belt, now held by Pete, being transferred from Jones' slender waistline to the slightly more substantial one of Lyness. Jones demonstrated last Tues day night that he Is la better con dition than ha has been for sev eral months, though he still wore considerable tap to bolster up portions of bis anatomy that were mending rapidly but might pos sibly still need support. Prof. Newton, the Oregon City school teacher, will return after a number of weeks' absence, to meet "Tuffy" Davis in the one hour bout. no more valuable TiiEEE is I asset for a baseball team than a dependable first-rate hurler who can go out there and win 15 or 20 games during a sea son. Eagle-eyed managers are al ways on the look-out for pitching talent, and whenever there is any talk of trades there is usually a twirler or two involved in the pro posed deal. Clark Griffith, the silver fox of the Washington Senators, made an attempt to strengthen his pitching staff when he acquired Walter Stewart and Earl Whitehill, two crack southpaws, from the Browns and the Tisrers respectively. How ever, in the process of acquiring these two moundsmen Griff gave up a couple -of pretty good twirlers in "Firpo" Marberry and Lefty Lloyd Brown, so it remains to be seen whether or not the deals have really strengthened the Senators' mound staff as much as the silver fox thinks. Griffith says that the shift rives Washington one of the bast pitch-1 tag staffs in the majors; and you must admit that a mound corps made up of Crowder, Weaver, Stewart, Whitehill and Al Thomas presents quit an impressive array of pitching; talent. As to the loss of Marberry and Brown, Griff points out that the first named hurler failed to click during most of last season and had very evidently outlived his useful ness at Washington, whlM Lloyd Brown, though a good enough hur ler. is a rather frail chap who can not be worked as often as Stewart or Whitehill Meanwhile, out in Brooklyn Max Carey has manajred to bolster his twirling; corps during; the winter by trading infielder Miekey Finn to the Phillies in exchange for Kay Beare. Benge is a eapable righthander who will undoubtedly win quite a few games for Carey in 1933. Ray may not be a very spectacular moundsman, hut he is a steady, ex perienced hurler and a consden tious workman out there on the hill. Some critics aver that he is lacking in stamina, and point out that he has shown a tendency to weaken after about seven innings; but Brooklyn fans claim that when he pitches for the Dodgers next season Benge will not be under the constant strain which harasses the hurlers who have to labor in the Phillies' bandbox park. The pitcher who works on the mound at Baker Bowl must eon- Istantly bear down in an attempt to prevent toe bitters from popping an outfield fly over that short bar rier into Broad St.; and a hurler such as Benge who packs no excess weight on his spare frame finds it next to impossible to put on full steam without a let-up over the nine-inning route. Pitching for the Dodgers, Ray will be able to coast a bit now and then, and let the outfielders do some work, without the constant fear of a home run ball hanging over his head.

' - - VERSATILE i .... :- JL x i&l If M4as CBIvENTS ow, about this eight-inch golf cup well, what do yon think? Gene Sarazea suggested it, and from many angles his argument sounds convincing. Sarazen's point is not so much to eliminate the putts that trickle past or over the 44 inch eup (we never supposed it was that big), as to place a bigger premium on what he calls the "second shot," which to him and the other ex perts is the approach shot. Not all who attempt to play golf, iden tify the second shot with the idea of getting on the green. The boys who flirt with par all the time, pat those second shots up to within 9 or IS feet from the cup a big share of the time, and could sink them with one pott, be figures, in an eight-inch cap. As It is, they usually take two putts, being not mach better off than, the fellow who approaches to with a 25 feet. So, says Gene, there is not the premium there owght to be on deadly ap proaches. The eight-inch cup, says Gene, would make birdies raueh mere feasible provided - those second shots were accurate to the degree that the expert tries to make them accurate; and that would put mora punch in the game, make it more spectacular. For the duf fer, he doesn't predict much ben efit, contrary to what most golf ers would think. There's some thing in his point of view putting Is not difficult to learn, the only trouble being that the . average duffer refuses to learn it by con stant practice, which is about the only way to acquire it. . On the contrary, one may practice ap proach, shots the wrong, way for years and get no better steadily holing a couple of long ones, the player nnconaciooely relax ed his vigilance, and missed the jam bo can just as readily as be did the standard sise. By the way, the weather lately hasn't been highly suggestive of golf, but they tell us out at the. course that everything is lovely when it isn't raining or snowing. There are a few puddles, but oth erwise the turf is in fine shape. Blew t m Ashland Normal Defeats Wolves Again, 35 to 26 MEDFORD. Ore..
