Bearcats Play San Jose
In Basket Series Here
Willamette ITs basketballing
Bearcats, rulers supreme over the
Northwest conference after their
two loop excursions, now step up
with the faster company in a two
game series Monday and Tuesday
nights with the highly touted San
Jose college Spartans of Califor
nia. The games will be the follow
up of the series opened in San
Jose last season when the Bear
cats dropped two decisions to the
Spartans. . Both will start at 8
o'clock in the WU gym and will
find the Cats much better
equipped to face the tough Golden
Staters this time.
Coached by Walt McPherson,
the Spartans have practically the
same outfit they had last season,
plus the addition of John (Red)
Kane, formerly ofOregon State
and "Swift" Wunker, ex-Indiana
U player. Others are Bob Wuest-
hoff, Bon Staley, Bob Hagen,Stu
Inman, Jim Cruz and Ralph Ro
mero. Six-foot," three-inch center
Jnman is the team's standout. The
calibre of the Spartans can be
.found in their schedule, which in
cludes games with such reputable
quints as Stanford, Nebraska,
USF, Bittner's, Sacramento Sena
tors, Nevada, St. Mary's and Col
lege of the Pacific.
! Coach Johnny Lewis will shoot
1 at th talented and favored visi-
tors his starting five of the John
icons, Jim, Bob and Ted, and Tom
, Warren and Bud Medley. San Jose
marksmanship was displayed in
a Friday-Saturday series with Se
attle college when the Spartans
won both games , easily. Seattle

Open Tuesday
The Willamette Valley league
basketball teams, their annual
jamboree a roaring success Fri
day night at Mt Angel, will Tues
day night play their first round
of games. Following the opening
round the teams will go idle in
league play until Tuesday, Jan
uary 6, and then will play on a
twice-a-week basis.
In Tuesday's openers the Mo
lalla Indians will play at Mt
Angel, the same two teams which
locked grips in the jamboree, Mt
Angel squeezing out a 17-13 vic
tory. Canby goes to Sandy to play
the tall Columbians and Wood
burn's small but driving Bulldogs
tackle the high-scoring Silvertons
at Silverton. Both Woodburn and
Silverton posted large scores in
the jamboree. Dallas and Esta
cada . played their opener last
week, with the Rangers coming
in with a 32-25 win. Dallas re
turned the compliment in the
jamboree, however, by soundly
whipping the Rangers.
Bee team tilts will precede all
Tuesday openers. ;

Wolverines
Bowl Date With' Trojans
PASADENA, Calif, Dec. 20-iAVMichigan's Wolverines rolled In
to the Rose Bowl city today and immediately began limbering up their
artillery for the Jan. 1 clash with Southern California's Trojans. Sun
shine, kxsses and oranges aominaiea tne warm reception given the
Big Nine champions by some n ' 1
2,500 well-wishers as the Michi
gan special train arrived, ending
the two-day junket from wintry
Ann Arbor.
Coach Fritz Crisler took one
look at the sunny skies and or
dered a three-hour practice. Then
the weather did a quick change,
but not Crisler. The 44-man squad
after a light unlimbering run
through for photographers in the
morning was put through a rug
ged afternoon session in a light
but steady rain at Brookside park,
just a Chappuis' throw from the
Rose Bowl itself.
Bob Chappuis, the Wolverines'
all-America passing ace, was the
main target for both photogra
phers and comely Rose Queen
Virgina Goodhue.
Coach Crisler, fidgeting during
the reception ceremonies, told
newsmen: "Starting Monday, it
will be two practices a day for
us. I had hoped to have 40 per
cent of our work behind us be
fore leaving Ann Arbor, but be
cause of the poor weather we now
are faced with the problem of 95
per cent preparation for our game
with Southern California."
USC Coach Jeff Cravath
planned to take some 56 squad
men to Santa Barbara tomorrow
to start secret drills most defen
sive, it was asserted to devise
means of checking the wily Wol
verine attack. Crisler also an
nounced that gates would be
locked to Michigan's sessions at
Brookside park.
