Sport Sparks By RON GEMME1X "The? can't play man-to-man. And they can't play zone. "What wonld you do with Such vu the question hurled t jour column conductor Wed fcesday night, following Willam ette's final court sashay of the season, hy Happy Howard Maple, genial generalissimo of Bearcat lasketbaU deeUalea. And - tin neasoa's record wonld neens to bear out Maple contention that lack Of defe baa been the prin cipal ftteae that has caused his 'Cat to lu Into second place tm tao Northwest con lereaca despite the fact only owe raaav was lost from the 1039 comferevco championship team that was bat once de feated la rirrwk play. The 'Cats finished the season with 14 victories and 12 losses, rhey scored a total of 1114 pelnts, as average of 4S.4 per game plenty of offensive punch. but their 21 opponents hooped In 1109 plU, an average of IC.t polats per same, or Just two tenths of s point a game less than Willamette's offensive average. Big Bill Anton, the be hemoth! gent lost from the 1139 cfwb, wma even more of on asset defewatveiy than of fensively notwithstanding Uto fact that the big Greek set a new cow fere wee scoring rec ord last year. When Anton got himself spread out in that slot there was little or no chance of a team working the ball in for cripple shots against 'the Willamette none of last sea son. And with Anton In there, he was the Mr. Big on back board play, a port of the game la which the 'Cats have been notoriously weak all season. Could Be Hoop Great. Basketball Is one piece of sports business that requires the utmost in conditioning. Frankly, the Willamette Just hsven't had It. Names need not be cited, for the lack of rendition statement is Just about applicable to the somplete eeuad. There can be only two ex cuses for hoopers standing around fiat-footed on back board play or for failure to drive Into openings when pre-M-nted. One, mental sluggifch-iK-H, and two, physical slug githnesa. And the latter can right well be the precipitator of the former. Keen-edged condition is very at ach a reaeou why the Salem high court club won 22 of 28 games for the regular season, mad why it averaged 3 8.89 points per game while holding oppon ents to 2. 2 points per. Aggres sive, hell-beat basketball of the tjr;e employed by the Vikings csu't bo played unless the lads d get their quota of sleep, turn nones up at nicotine and main tain reasonable diets. Teams which defeated the VI klags this year were those that had more to offer in the way of speed, height or both. Med lord, which dropped the Vikings twice, was the fastest team they Biet all season, according to Coach Hauk; Tillamook, the other team that twice downed the Salems, was the tallest team they met all season; and both McMlnnvllle aad Dallas, which earned single wins over the Io cs!, were well-balanced with both speed and height. Condition a Necessity. One Bearcat who lacks only proper condition and a bit more experience to become a great basketball player Instead of a hoop clown Is Ralph Farmer, the 230-pound freshman from Montana. The big guy right now I a better ball handler, better passer and better shot than An ton ever was. In fact, we saw no big fellows in the northern division coast conference this yar who could handle the apple or themselves any more credit ai- than Farmer. If the Montana menace next year gets bis gigantic hoik whittled down about 20 pounds and takes the game with the sertoaaness it de mands, be ran easily become om of Willamette's all-time 'basketball greats. Speaking of Willamette hoop greats, I am reminded that once tnore ax-Bearcat hoopers will be in the majority when state tournament coaches arrive here next week. No less than five of the It coaches who will hare teams In the big meet are ex Willamette. They Include Hauk of Salem. Harold Dimick of Ore gon City, -Jerry Gastineau of Chemawa, Glen Ledbetter of Pendleton and Tillamook 'a Rus Karey.

PETERSBURG, Fla., March 1-&)T inventive genius of Manager Ray Blades of the St. Iioul Cardinals may make basettall safer for both players and spectators when Pepper Martin is at bat. For years the wild horse's habit of unexpectedly letting go of the bat in talcing a healthy cut at the ball has thrown op posing players into a mild panic. So Blades ordered a leather strap and had It taped at the handle end of the bat, forming a loop into which Pepper is supposed to pnt his left hand. Then if he loses his grip on the bat as he swings, the loop will hold It and nobody will be in jured unless he hits himself, the catcher nr the umpire.

Proposed Hoop Rules Changes Are Branded 'Crackpot9 by Colorado Coach; He Suggests Uniform Ball By LONDON KELLY DENVER, March 7. (AP) Frosty Cox, Colorado's basketball coach, who might be a fugitive from a haberdash ery ad with those he-mannish good looks, thinks most of the present efforts to change the rules are aimed at "legislating against the tall boy and you just can't do it." "The tall player, all other things being equal, always will have the advantage over to smaller boy, no matter how the rules are changed," said Cox, whose Buffaloes have won two big seven conference champion ships and tied for another in the last three years. He scoffed at recent suggestions for a "no-Bcoring zone" aronnd the "basket as "crackpot ideas." "The tall boy could stand out side the zone and shoot all night," he said. "Then he could drive in to grab rebounds and you'd see a worse wrestling match under the basket than there is now." Cox, a right handy guy with either a football or a basketball when he was at Kansas univer sity, says if the cage fathers want to do something really practical, they should vote for a uniform basketball. "There are three different kinds of balls now in use, all of ficial," he said. Frosty will leave Saturday with hla mountain boys to play in the sports writers' tournament at New York next week and in the Na tional Collegiate playoffs at Kan sas City March 22-23.
