Up Speed, Win
Versteeg, Nunnenkamp and

; 42 to 35 Victory
j-
- "6pec" Keene's ; blustering
, Bearcats shook off their bustle
last night and put on some hustle
Instead as they downed "Mush
Torson'a crew of Wagner's All
Stars from Corrallis 42 to 35.
Showing not only a lot of scor
!ng ability but more often than
not passing the "ball around like
. a bunch of veterans, the Bearcata
hit a stride better than they had
shown since the season opened.
Charley Versteeg, Bill Anton
and Larry Nuanenkamp were the
three chiefly responsible for build
ing up the Bearcat score. Versteeg
went hog wild to score 14 points,
his biggest total of the season,
while Anton clipped off 11. Nun
nenkamp, who has been warming
the bench since he failed to lire
ap to great expectations In early
games finally showed that he has
the stuff and was the big push of
. ' the Bearcat offensive in the first
halt when It was pretty much neck
and neck.
Tied Four Times
' Willamette went Into the lead
late In the first half, arter the
score had been knotted four times,
. on two swift field goals by Char
ley Versteeg and stayed there. It
j was 19 to CI at half-time.
The first half bad been dog eat
j dog and the second half was more
so. There were 29 personal fouls
called during the contest and Cliff
Fblen and Wilbur Kidder, former
Oregon State stars playing for
I Wagner's, both left the game on
too many violations. Kidder, an
unruly redhead, also came in tor
a pair of technical fouls.
The Bearcats lost little time
in the second half. Bill Anton
pushed one In to start it off and
then Charley Versteeg. who was
doing things by pairs, "got two
field goals in a row, one a close
in push shot, the other a looping
distance thing.
Versteeg's long prayer shot
swished through Just after Harry
Mosher had frantically shouted,
Number three play, 7 Charley,
number three," and it was agreed
that number three play was a very
effective one indeed.
Versteeg potted one of'two free
throws to make it 25-16, a fairly
.ood lead considering that only
2',a minutes of the half had
elapsed.
Stay Little Ahead
From then on in the Bearcats
kept a lead that was never less
' than five ooints but never as
much as ten. They were given
much trouble by the Sandos
twins, a pair of lads who two sea
sons ago played for Corvallis high.
Fred Sandos potted field goals
merrily with a practically un
gu'ardable leaping push shot while
AH was an Annie Oakley on the
foul line. Fred with his 11 points
was the best point garner for
Wagner's.
After Willamette's Initial spurt
In the second half Wagner's gath
ered momentum and played the
Bearcats practically even for the
rest of the half. They couldn't
t ahead thou eh with Charley
Versteeg and Bill Anton working i
the net cords overtime.
-Wagner's was closest and j
threatening with about six min-i
ntetf left when Willamette led by
a scant fire points 37 to 32 after
' Bill Lemmon, Eellfountaln coach, r
had slammed in a field goal from I
Has bd on a auick pass from Tor-
son and All Sandoz had converted
a free throw.
Anton and Bill Beard took Wil
lamette out of danger. Beard with
one of his nonchalant shots from
the next county for a field goal
and Anton with a free shot but
the other Sandos and Lemmon,
this time with a long shot, drew
Wagner's up again as time grew
.; abort. .-
Tomscheck's two fouls against
Versteeg in - the final minute
served to use up time as well as
to let Versteeg make two more
points. , -
. r Tillamook Beaten w
,The Willamette Freshman, led
as usual by diminutive Cecil Ques
seth. scored a 27 to 15 win over
Russ Rarey's Tillamook high
quint. Quesseth scored 10 points
: "-tor ' the Bearktttens. They will
meet Tillamook pthere next Fri
day. The Tillamook Junior high
. band enlivened the occasion and
made several spectators wonder
where the Willamette band hiber
nated after football season.
