BUD COONS
Fanning a few facts, fashioning fibres of fluff, f eaturing t ast
fellows, and all the time wondering whatever became or the
-Three Little Fishes" not to speak of the iddy biddy dam? . . .
It probably can't be proved without wading through faded I news-
i paper iues, uui uwi
I by which our voracious Vikings
victimized the Astorians Friday
night is undoubtedly the most
1 one-sided tally ever totaled be
i tween these two old, old hoop
rivals . . . Largest margin of the
I past five seasons was 20 points,
3 oosted in a 1938 tussle won by
Salem 36-16. but a 34-point mar-
I gin as was Friday night's isn't
' i approached in any of the records
'I have.
Something I'd like to see:
5 An offensive-defensive battle be
; tween Columbia Preps' O'Toole,
who is ticketed by all who have
seen him in action as the best
hieh school basketball player in
the stated and Salem's Bud
Coons, whom this observer rates
as the best defensive prep player
he's ever seen ... Many claim
O'Toole is good enough right now to make any college club on
the coast, but even so I'd hate to wager he'd score 10 points off
Coons in a straight man-for-man contest. . f
Nothing spectacular about piano-pinned Bud, but he s so
steadily efficient he reminds you of the tick of grandmothers old
eight-day clock ... He doesn't give any impression oi swumw,
ithr nfortt or with his hands, vet if you keep an eye on him
you'll note he's consistently out-running the opposition and is
ever now and then coming from no where to swipe, a pass.
On the backboards. Bud is a bearcat And when he clamps
his clutch on the ball he has the ability and ruggedness to move
It out from under therhoop and into play without losing it or
allowing himself to be tied up . . . With another year of high school
play, Bud should be the greatest college prospect to leave Salem
high since tne urager ooys. .
K O
NW Loon Short Usual Standard
An all-night stand in Grand Central station wouldn't have
provided more whistling than my ears were treated to riaay
night in a cross-town canter between the Vik and Bearcat basket
ball pavilions . . . After listening to 34 fouls caned at tne vik vuia,
I pot in on 35 more at the 'Cat casaba cave. .
Thoueht. painfully brought on by the swift move from Vik-
land to 'Catland: Salem is due to experience some difficulty in
the state show . . . The Viks, playing in the shorter, narrower
Willamette hoopatorium, won't be able to utilize their amazing
swift as they do in their own spacious shot palace.
Betcha a bae of peanuts (a five-cent one) that there never
before ivas a team to lay claim to the Northwest conference title

PULLMAN, Wash., Feb. 22
(AP) A Washington State col
lege basketball attack as hot as
a desert wind and just as hard
to stop blew through the Uni
versity of Washington's defense
tonight for a-69 to 47 victory,
KState's 1 1th straight in northern
division, Pacific Coast conference
play.
State's Cougars, ahead by a 33
to 13 tally at the half, made a
btt of local history by winning
their fourth straight' game of the
season from Washington's hapless
Huskies the first time in the
memory of the oldest ' alumnus

Shed Tear for Shauehnessy, Gents
San Francisco scribes have arrived at the brilliant conclusion
(they rode piggyback to get there,,) that Clark Cinderella Man
Shaughhessy's Stanfords of 1941 won't be as successful as his
Stanfords of 1940 . . . They're the same sanctimonious sons of
the bay district who a year ago were predicting'it'd take Clark

team . . . Now they fear he won't be able to bat 1.000 again .
Touch, is it not?
New York received a 480-Dound shipment of Baers from
California last week . . Max and Buddy, the former reported
to have been wearing a stylish pneumatic tire arquna nis miaaie
and the latter a mouse on his eye, arrived there yelling tor
action ... No one can talk a more bloodthirsty language than
the two big Baers.
Note to Salem Senator seekers of baseball ivory: Move in
on the San Francisco Seals they've had 111 hopefuls working
out in their orchard the past week ... In fact, the field attend
ance there has been better than was the stand attendance for
some of last year's games
Even a fish tried out for the Seal club no kidding . . . They
found a' five-inch silver smelt in the outfield ... It had suc
cumbed, presumably, to the competition . . . How it got there was
somewhat of a mystery, but Will Connolly suggests it may have
been coughed up by one of the many sea gulls which inhabit the
- place when it isn't overrun by would-be ball players.
Question: Could a football game result in a 1-0 score? . .
Answer: Yes, but Td rather see Stanford play . . . Here's how: By
forfeiture.

So There's Nothing in Names, Eh?
Jim Jurkovich, the hipper-dipper halfback from whom Cali
fornia expected so much last fall only to see him on the sidelines
most of the time because he was subject to brain concussions
at the slightest knock on his noggin, has a younger brother at
Fresno high who has bucked, kicked and passed more yards than
the senior Jurk did at a corresponding age Jurk, the younger,
is 6 feet tall and. weighs 195 pounds, although he's but a junior.
. Stanford's request that the Cougars change the northern
southern divisions playoff dates so that the Indians' path to the
NCAA meet might be sooner cleared recalls to Art Taafe, for
many years publicity director at Oregon State, what happened
to a California team 19 or 20 years ago,, v The Calif ornians, hav
ing what looked like a cinch, came north to play Idaho "on their
way east . . They took on the Vandals in the old "hat box gym
at Moscow with the result a double win for Idaho and cancel
lation of east-bound tickets for the Bears.
Spring football practice will open at Willamette Monday
without the boss . . . Headman Spec Keene underwent a sinus
operation Friday and is apt to be teaching man-in-motion stuff
by remote control for a few days yet.
- , So you don't think there is anything in names, eh? . . .
WelL if vou were to write to either Frank Backbone or Melvin
Woundedeye; Chemawa hoopers, you might think differently
. . Their, addresses: Frank Backbone, Crow tribe, Cow Indian
too fimcyi Bit? Horn county, i Montana: Melvin
Woundedeye, Cheyenne tribe, Tongue River agency, Lame Deer,
Rosebud county, Montana. j - y
As they did last night in losing,
50 to 38, the Huskies broke away
in front on a basket' by Jack
Voelker and held the edge at 2-1
for three minutes.
In three more minutes the
count was 14 to 2 for State, Vera
Butts starting the rally with
seven quick points. After 10 min
utes of play WSC had a 21 to 6
advantage and began to coast,
but came to life after the des
perate Huskies had chewed the
margin down to 21-13.
They , fought on even terms
through the opening 10. minutes
of the second period. With the
count at 47 to 30, Coach Jack
Friel ran in five WSC substitutes
and the second stringers rushed
the count to 52-31 before Friel
broke up the combination by
cleaning his last subs from the
bench.
Bill Morris of Washington got
into the select circle of high
scorers, ranking as one of the I
five men who tallied 10 points.
The others were Paul Lindeman,
Butts, Marv Gilberg and Ray
Sundquist, all of State.
A crowd of 5500 watched the
WSC zone defense, especially de
signed for Washington, roll back
the invaders.
