Bearcats Near
Goid: pitman
Doivned 32-26
Accuracy Especially at
Gift Line Decisive
- Factor in Game
Missionaries Hold Near
Even at Times After
Thrilling Rallies
By PAUL. HAUSER
- WIHsmetto university's hard--driving
basketball team drove a
hard bargain last night as It' took
an option on the Northwest con
ference hoop championship by
defeating Whitman's Missionary
hoopers 32 to 26.
The Bearcats, outplaying Whit
man on offense and defense, made
flaainnarv hones for a third
straight hoop champkmship tor-
lorn. It was tne secona loss ior
the Missionaries whereas the
Bearcats are as yet unbeaten. ,
Willamette- displayed a ball
handling, ball-hawking style of
play that it has never quite
equalled on the home floor this
season as it got the Jump on the
Missionaries early in the game
" and, except for a brief moment
In the second half, kept the lead
all the way.
Keeping Possession
Of Ball Is Factor
The Bearcats won by virtue of
superior shooting accuracy and
their ability to maintain posses
sion of the ball with adept and
clever ball-handling and a driv
ing follow-up on shots. Their ac
curacy In potting free throws was
also a big deciding factor as Whit
man missed' nine out of 11
chances.
Whitman's slight but speedy
five, after the score was knotted
at 2-1 in the first minutes,' ap
peared to be bothered with a' bad
case of jitters. The Missionaries
opened r I g h t up with hopeless
long shots and, sinking a few of
them, did the same all evening to
the great advantage of the Bear
cats who usually , got the ball
when It came down.
: Larry Nunnenkamp put the
Bearcats In the lead in the early
minutes as he dribbled in close
to the basket to sink a field goal.
That made it 4-2 and the Bear
cats, making most of their shots
count, rolled up a 10 to 2 lead
before Bullock broke the spell tor
Whitman with a free throw. Geist,
tall Whitman center, holed out
one of his mile-long shots but
Willamette kept on driving in
close for shots and with 14 min
utes gone was ahead 15 to 5.
Closer at Halftime
As Missions Rally - -
A Whitman rally In the dying
minute of the half in which
Larry Porter, Mission guard,
dropped In two quick field goals,
brought the- Missionaries up to
17-12 by halftime.

Repeal of Pari
Favored, Preliminary Vote
By a vote of 14 to 13 the sen
ate overturned the adverse report
of the judiciary committee on the
Staple bill, SB 161. forrepeal of
the law creating the racing com
mission and allowing betting un
der the pari-mntuel system. The
bill thus goes on the calendar for
third reading. -
Only two i poke on the measure.
Senator Staples made an earnest
appeal to wipe out the legalisation
of betting. He asserted: '
"The parl-mutuel take three
or four million dollars but of the
pockets of persons who should
have guardians appointed ' for
them. One man lost $12,000 bet
ting at the race. Do we want to
mortgage out souls to eternal
damnation . to keep up the state
fair and the Pacific International?
The fair becomes a school for
gambling Instead of agriculture."
Gambling Preceded -Racing-
Law. Held "
Sen. Duncan, in a brief reply
said that gambling was rife about
race track before the pari mu
a few. days tLe highway, building
measure will be brought back for
third reading. ; : i J
' The' perplexing problem : ha
been the, f 1 n a n c i njg of the
grounds and building program.
Regular appropriations, with the
increase for higher - education,
hare lapped up most all the mon
ey in the budget estimates. The
existence of large sums of state
money, while all earmarked for
definite uses, would make It
possible : to finance the program
because the huge balance are
drawing little Interest, and the
lag "in spending Insures heavy
balances at all times. While us
ing these balances might create
a bookkeeping deficit, advocate
of this method say the pressing
need justifies the undertaking.
Bills pending in the ' legisla
ture are SB 228 to , bay two
blocks north of the capitol; SB

Super-Truck Bill
To Lack Support
Report Adrrsrse on Lifting
Load Limit, Allowing
Greater Length e
' The senate roads' and highways
committee Friday reported ad
versely on senate blU No. 130, by
Burke and Bennett, increasing the
gross weight of truck and trail
ers from 54,000 to 68,000 pounds
and length from 50 to 60 feet.
The bill was opposed bitterly
by members of the state highway
commission and railroad repre
sentatives.
At a hearing before the road
and highway committee, the al
leged reactionary and arbitrary
methods of the state highway
commission were assailed by
James F. Morrell, representing
the Consolidated Freight Lines.
Morrell alleged that the truck
operators pay considerable more
taxes In Oregon than the railroads
and have been responsible for
material reductions in freight
rates. He said the passage of this
bill would place Oregon : motor
truck operators on a parity with
those In California, Washington
and other western states.
G. S. Paxon, state bridge engi
neer, argued that the present
highways and bridges were now
taxed to their capacity strength
and that additional weight would
prove a serious hazard. He asked
that the bill be reported out fa
vorably. Judge Choice Now
