IBecwEed tofe Bearcats Nose Out Sons 30-29: Face Three Foes TMs Week io League 6 to Stop Belated Asliland Drive Walter Tosses in Three; Monmouth First on Bill This Week MEDFORD, Ore., Jan. 1S.-JP)-Wniaraette nnirenity of Salem defeated the Southern Oregon Normal school tonight at Ashland, 39 to' 29. in. a close, hard fought " game. . ; With two minutes left to play. the .Sons were trailing by seven.-! Forward Walton threw three bas kets in rapid order to nearly tie the score in a hectic finish. The game was rough through out, and according to Coach Spec Keene of Willamette "got beyond the control of the officials." Anton, Willamette center, went out of the game with a badly sprained ankle, and Coach Keene said he would be out of the game for two weeks. Versteeg, Willam ette guard, was banished from the tussle for unnecessary rough ness. Gastineau, Willamette forward, was high point man with 12 counters. "Spec" Keene's Bearcat hoop sters will return from Southern Oregon to face a week that will bring them against two tough in dependent teams and a college team that already holds one vic tory over them. Oregon Normal, the Sherman Packards of Portland and the high scoring Union Oil team, also of Portland, will furnish opposition for the Bearcats this week. Wil lamette will meet the Wolves at Independence Monday while the two independent teams will be met on the Bearcat court Friday and Saturday. Coach Al Cox's flashy Wolves, victors over Willamette 32 to 21 last Monday, will meet a Bearcat team somewhat stronger than the one they defeated. With Bill An ton, back at center the Bearcats should be able to cope with Nor mal's dead-eye center, Jack But terworth, whose ability to flip baskets over his shoulder from just outside tha foul circle was the straw that broke the Bear cat's back. Whether Coach Keene has solv ed the problem of "What ails the Bearcats" will not be known un til Monday night. The team had been, at least up to last night's victory at Ashland, unable to re capture the aggressive drive it had in its' three early games and has fallen down on its ability to hit the basket. The Sherman Packards were de feated by Grand Theatre here sev eral weeks ago after a hard, fast battle. Union Oil. which the Bear- cats meet Saturday, is one of the best independent quints in the northwest and includes such for mer college stars as "Spook" Ro bertson, Ralph Cairney and Glen Sanford. The Oilers downed Wil lamette twice last year in three games. Hopmen Win Over Canby Five 29-13 INDEPENDENCE Jan. 18.

Salni, which can come to the tournament even if jt doesn't win a game the whole season, will play in the first game of the first night's program against the champion of District No. 6. McMinnville represented District 6 last year and probably will again. The A schools, who saw Oak ridge -surprise everybody last year by getting clean into the semi finals, had better not forget the B schools this year. There are' several of them that are hot after the state title. One of the best is little Bellfountaln, dubbed the Biant-killers.

That was in 1928-9, and it was hockey's greatest manager, that miracle man of the ice, Tommy Gorman, who performed a verita ble feat of legtrdemain in queer ing the Americans into a coveted play-off berth. Dutton, a playing manager, is one of the best defense men in the loop, if any one should ask you; and his work on ice is really an in spiring example for his men to fol a law degree.

The Vikings are playing Coach "Honest John" Warren's Oregon Ducklings at 8 o'clock. On the squad are Bobby Anet, Henry Nilsen and Wally Johansen, three of the hard-running Finns who gave Astoria another state cham pionship last year.

Recently, in a game against the Canadiens, the Americans' pug nacious pilot notched two goals and two assists, a remarkable scoring record for a defense player.

Otis Clingman, also previously maltreated by Chambers, dumped the mighty Hobo last week and presumably the rough and tough gentleman is in for no easy going as the ghosts of his past indiscre tions come back to haunt him and take him to pieces.

Later the Hobo downed Elliott when the referee was in his "rass lin' " clothes. Jack Curtis, clever wrestler who has long been a favorite here, will meet Bud Lipscomb, hard eyed rascal from Missouri in the 45 minute semi-windup. Lips comb's tactics are a bit on the foul side while Curtis sticks pretty close to science. Otis Clingman, who evened matters with Chambers last week, will take on Dick Costello in the 30 minute opener. Rickreall Downs Dallas Soldiers RICKREALL, Jan. 18.
