May Enter Tourney The Pilots are. a strong aggre gation and have more than held their own with other teams of Willamette's calibre. One of the outstanding players on the Port land team is 3 ill O'Donnell, high scoring tournament sensation of the past two years. O'Donnell played with the Columbia Preps before graduating to the Portland varsity. Keene said there was a possi bility that Willamette might en ter the district A. A.

The Huskies trailed, 23 to 13, at halftime. The Cougars, playing at their peak, raced in front for a 10-0 lead in the first few minutes, and the Huskies never were able to get in front except for a brief min ute in the overtime period. It was a thrilling exhibition which kept 4,500 fans wildly excited. Huskies Lead Once A short shot by Ralph Bishop knotted the count at 33-33 with four minutes to play, and the teams battled frantically the re maining time without a score. Opening the overtime, Dahlke put the Cougars ahead, 34-33 with a free throw. Ed Loverich, who was the sparkplug of the brilliant second half Husky offensive, sank a shot from the sidelines to give the Huskies a 35-34 edge, their only lead of the game. Capt. Jask Hol- stine grabbed the victory for his team with a close range toss for the final basket. The Huskies scored 16 field goals to the Cougars' 12, but the winners sank a dozen free throws to three for the Huskies. Chuck Wagner, of the Huskies, went out on personal fouls. ' The Leslie Methodist basket ball quint chalked up its 20th win of the season and its 12th victory in 14 starts when it de feated the St. Vincent de Paul five 49 to 43 last night.

The following players from teams par ticipating in the Willamette Val ley league hare been picked as an all-star team by Forrest "Skeet". O'Connell. coach of Woodburn high school: Schwab of Silrerton, one of the mainstays of his team, who pror- ed himself a good dribbler and an excellent shot; Tour, of the champion West Linn team, whom O'Connell has chosen as captain of the all-star team ; Stone of West Linn, a good jumper, a player who uses his head in play on the floor; Shaw and Bonney, Woodburn's star players. Shaw proved to be one of the best defense men and averaged 6 points a game throughout the season. Bonney is classed as one of the best dribblers in the league. His average was 5 points per game. Honorable mention was given Pettyjohn and Specht of Silver- ton, Plummer of Dallas, Rauch of West Linn, Kycek of Newberg, Whitman and Racette of Wood burn, Stoars, Reed and Slyter of Melalla.

Rumor that "Spec" Keene had abdicated as kingpin of the Bearcat basketbaU team swept the Willamette campus yesterday. Our nose for news led us direct to the sad-eyed mentor who was gloomily watching several young men in short pante and Jerseys tossing balls at an iron boon with a net. apparently of hemp, at tached. "We corroborated the rumors. The rumors corrobor ated right back at us but we were oat of range and laughed merrily as we gave them an old familiar gesture. It's true. Weary of the wait of woe that wreathes a mentor s brow "Spec" Keene abdicated yesterday and will go to the Uni versity of Portland game tonight disguised as a spectator. For this purpose he will wear a battered old Indian head-dress with three feathers missing and a pair of white kid gloves. The gloves are on account of his hands off policy. He debated going incog nito as a Mr. Finegan but decided later to be known as "Spec the Spectator." Having turned over the reins of the Bearcat team to Kenny Manning, who senior scholars in physical education when he isn't playing basketball or base ball, Keene has resolved not to worry a bit if the Bearcats score only eight points in the first half. Manning, who will be playing his last game if he pats himself in the game tonight. wasn't quite sure last night who he would start against the Pilots but was certain he would be able to find a strong aggre gation. Humors (uncorrobor ated) that Manning had en listed the Willamette girls' team ' to strengthen the Bear cats are untrue. Girls aren't eligible under conference rules and, besides. Manning is a stickler for training. Although Keene has severed his connections for tonight at least with the Bearcats, it was reported that Junior Lindstrom, Bearcat basketball manager and Northwest amateur towel throw ing champion, will continue as assistant coach. Lindstrom, dur ing Keene's regime, several times picked the starting lineup and points with pardonable pride to the fact that when he named the starters the Bearcats won. Whe ther Manning will give him this privilege tonight is not known. Keene has promised Lindstrom that he will watch over the tow els and smelling salts it the as sistant coach wishes to attend to weightier matters.

"Gee" Quesseth, reserve who sees the most service, will probably not get to play due to a pulled arm muscle. The game scheduled with Hood River has been called off because of a conflict with Hood River's elimination series with The DaUes. The Vikings win meet "S k e e t" O'Connell's Woodburn Bulldogs at Woodburn Friday instead. Grand Theatre aud Valley Packing went into a three-way tie ith the Willamette Freshmen for the leadership of the City T major division as a result of make up games on the Parrish floor last night. Grand Theatre pushed the Teachers out of the tie and prob ably out of any chance to finish in the money when they won 43 to 21. Valley Packing downed Safeway 29 to 20 in a game that was close all the way. Grand Theatre and the Pack ers, winners last night, will fight it out Wednesday night to de cide which one will remain on the ton runr. The Willamette Fresh men will play Safeway while the Teachers take on the lowly Valley Motor five. Arerill Is Star Too much Pern Averill, recent recruit to Packer colors, was the reason a fighting Safeway team couldn't quite edge out the Pack ers. Averill, who formerly played for Oregon Normal and for Union Oil, scored 14 points in leading the Packers to victory. Safeway led 7 to 3 at the end of the first quarter but the Pack ers slipped up for a 13 to 12 lead at half time. At the end of the third period the score was tied at 18-all. Magee starred for Safeway with 11 points. Grand Theatre went to work on the Teachers with a vengeance. holding them to five points in the first half which ended with the Theatre team leading 21 to 5. Jack Connors. Theatre substitute. got his annual hot streak to score more points. 13, than he has all season and take scoring honors.
