TVrlLLAMETTE'S basketball team drove the final spike in
a Northwest conference championship which has eluded
them since 1933, last night isthey defeated the two-time
champions from Whitman 33
championshiD series last nizht.
The victory gave Willamette clear claim to a title it had
already taken, tbe lint leg on by
downing tbe Missionaries, in . the
first game of the series.. Wlllam
' ett i most still play Albany and
Pacific a game each but ; neither
will affect the title.
Not until the final minute was
the issue clear as the two "big
shot" teams of the : Northwest
conference matched point for
point through a second half -in
which the lead switched eight
times. '
Harry Mosher. substitute Wil
lamette xuard. swished a long
bo witter from the' 30-foot mark
to put the Bearcats four points to
th a good with a minute to go ana
Jerry Gas tines a holed a cripple
to offset Pepin's field goal sec
onds later in the dying threes of
the tame.
Willamette; starting out with
the jitters Whitman had the night
before, was never able to gain
much, of a lead and In the second
hal. nobody- could call the lead
-his own. For 11 minutes it
switched with almost eye-defying-
rapidity. ; -" .
But the Bearcats settled down
midway- in the second half after
being checked out of their ball-
handling supremacy in tne earner
portions to make their fast-break-in
style count-' for something.
- Willamette's slight edge came
again from its accuracy in field
goal shooting with Jerry - Gastl
neau and Bill Anton ringing in
six field goals apiece. Whitman
stayed with Its cast-off style, a
style which, it must be said, the
Missionaries can use ; with great
effect. Larry Porter, the surest
ahot of all the Missionaries,
- troubled the Bearcats no ; end.
with his unerring shots from 'any
bad luck finding the hole in the
middle of the- hoop la the first
' half was lucky for therBearcats.
Willamette, as it was, scored 17
field goals to 13 for the Mission
aries. : ' i :
As the night before Bill Anton
opened the scoring with one of
his one-hand - twister- shots and
Porter tied it at2-2 with a long
range swlsher. Then the Bearcats,
being checked by almost skin
tight guarding, worked up a 7-2
It .d .before, with six - minutes
gone, Anderson sank a free throw,
. type of shot with which Whlt
a man had better success last night.
Close Again at Half
It was point for point then and
with the halt ten minutes gone
Porter sank two gift shots toJ
make it 8-9 for Willamette. Field
goals br Weaver and Gastlneau
rot Willamette ahead 13 to S.
Porter stood almost on the cer.. ir
line and swished one, followed by
Bullock's free throw, and Gastl-
. neau put one in- from under with
a back flip shot to make it 15-11.
Pepin and Gelst sank field goals
while Weaver was getting a gift
shot to bring Whitman to 15-14
at the half.; - " .'" ; - --'--'
Bullock's free throw as the sec
ond half opened brought the Mis
sionaries evea. up at 14-14 and
'"then the fun began. For 11 min
ute the goals at either .and of
the floor shook as the two teams
strove to get a safe lead.. The
ld wavered from Bearcat to
Missionary eight timet to that per
iod and finally ended at 2-2
when Gentry got away alone to
swish a cripple. During that per
iod Bearcat stock dropp3 when
Carrier Versteeg went oat on his
fourth personal f onL
It was a beetle up-ana aowu
tlsse In which . Willamette,
especially with , Versteeg out of
the game, seemed to be getting
the worst of It. While the Bear-
eat- were keenlnx UP, wnumau
was outspeeding them and getting
men loose for almost sure w
that only super-cheeking eouid

ivu v. t - .
eight minutes left In the game
nut antnit ntcked UD a loose ball
in a scramble under the basket
and dropped It tnrougn io pu
the -Bearcats' ahead. ? A- mlntite
later he came through again when
it was needed most to sink one
of his one-handed miracle shots
while two' Missionaries swarmed
all over him. That made It 39 to
24 and Willamette held its alight
lead tha rest of the way im porter
sank a long one to hring
the Missionaries up to 31-32 with
five minutes left in the -game but
Anton - sank another and after
a successful Whitman free throw
Mosher and Gastlneau put the
Bearcats comfortably ahead with
on. minute to go.
Whitman, wbich made only two
OHt of 11 free- throws the first
night, shone-in that department
last night wttKeijrht successes in
13 tries. Willamette sank; four
