, A -communique from .Harold McDaniel of th Coot Bay
Harbor, in reply to the bleacher babblings oi this writer In sec
ond guessing the casaba carnival heartily agrees that the North
Benders did have a bad night when Baker bowled them over.
And finishing fourth in the-state hoop tourney didn't pacify the
Benders ' one bit--theyrre already pointing toward next .year's
.night " i
"I saw every game Excepting
is McDaniel," Vyou didn't mis,

off a bit in the Baker gazne-Budy Ruppe was especially disap-
the'toumey; so w were sort of
expecting it again he didn't play
. his usual "game until he took that
: terrific fall early in the ML Angel
; Same. (That was the one in which
; Ruppe leveled out horizontally
after, a mighty leap and descend
ed, to the floor flat on his back
. with .hi head striking first - It
. shook him up considerably
. enough so that he 'proceeded to
. swish 23 point in the 83-32 win.)
r He's; a. world-beater down in' his
league, but just a two 'o'clock
- hitter" in the -tournament' "."
- "Dent see how they can keep
Nerth Bend frem making the
- trip again next year the team
will be larger and the only big
problem will be In replacing
.Wayne Fax. We were eertain-
ly. tickled to see him make all-
state--he haant had a peer game
' all season."
Add another campaigner to the
"Reiman of Corvallix for all-state"
