Locals Resume Winning Ways Cats in Good Form; 2nd Tilt Set Tonight By Jerry Stone Sports Writer. The Statesman Willamette's hoop squad climb ed back into winning stride in northwest conference play after two straight losses as it last night battered a ragged and tired Whit man outfit, 63-32, on the local floor. The teams meets again to night, a prelim between the JVs and Page-Woolen opening, pro ceedings at 6:30 After the first five minutes of the contest the only question of the evening was just how high the Cats could push their margin. Elmer Schaake's boys were def initely "on" three quarters of the way as they potted uncanny shots from every direction near and far. On the other hand the Mis sionaries were not only out of the "groove" but a long way from it a major portion of the fray. From the time - - four minutes into the fracas - - when Frankie Page hit a 25-foot push shot to knot the count at 4-4 the locals were on the way, with Al McRae and Ron Runyan providing most of the "clutch" work. The Cats walked off the floor at half time with a 33-17 advantage. The second leg was more of same. The last two minutes of the game however, produced the ma jor fireworks of the evening and jng the ball out of a scramble and dribbling the length of the floor for lay-ins. McRae was king-pin scorer of the tilt with 12. Scotty Sebern, Bearcat guard, is out of the series because of the flu.
