At another point he said,"if everyone else in Ger many was working, why should not the inmates of concentration camps?" War Brides Wave Greeting 'Oregon Mother' .

(Continued from page 8) With 3:32 left in the half, Eu gene crawled it to 10-14, Love lace finally canning one of his hop-and-shoot specials from a corner. Medford's scoring ace Ross was also badly off on his casts in the second frame. Eu gene's Gene Miner, a hard-driving guard, lopped three consecu tive free throws near the end of the period to make it Medford 14. Eugene 12, at the half. Medford romped it to 22-16 early in period three asfcthe game opened up, but then Ernie Wilde of the Axemen lived up io his name by touching up a scoring spree of three straight lefthanded baskets from around the key zone edges to help bring it up to 26-25 for Medford at the third period. Medford was weakened consider ably midway through the frame when high-scoring Guard Earl SteUe fouled out. Both sides exchanged free throw upon free throw during most of the fourth frame as Med ford's defense was still stopping the Axemen and the Axemen no- you-don't stuff was dittoing the Tornado.

Helter-skeltering basketball en sued as the clock ticked away, and in the thick of the scrambling Miner was fouled with :50 left to go. He calmly tossed it true to give Eugene her first lead of the thriller, and a lead that the Axemen kept. With :4.1 lrft to co Bis Rlggs fouled out too, Eugene taking the ball out of boundi. Ross or Medford sot in i do-or-die shot when a D" wai in tercepted. but the try that could have aewed up the game miseed by half a hair from 23 feet The Washington - Central catholic struggle was one for the books. Cen tral led nine times throughout, Wash ington six times and it was tied thrice morel And at times tt appeared as if the Harry Scarff Catholics were Jut far enough ahead to salt it away. But they had returning Aii-feiaier Bob Lavey to contend with, and he nrovMl tooo much to handle. With four minutes to go and the score 35-32 against him, Lavey merely scored sev en roint to win the ball fame I Tills answer to a collcre coach Rraver. and eavily the best ballplayer l the 27th tournament, first lopped fast one-handed push shot while breaking across the key. Then he tied the score with a weaving drive to the bucket for a lay-up. Almost before the Centrals knew what hit them he set himself at the 20-foot mark, aimed and turned loose another one-hander for a 38-38 lead. Then to cap it all he potted a gifter on a foul with 86 seconds left to salt 'er away. For The second night in their three outings the Hal Hatton favorites had to come from behind to win. But they again proved they are the champion by doing Just that in championship style. It took a rally to beat The Dalles Wednesday and it was ditto last nignt. In each instance it was Lavey, Lavey. Lavey and Keller who did it. The party of the second part, firnt name Jack, has been giving with the sup port but beautifully all this tourna ment with ; his Ions arching clutch buckets.
