Foxes Play Vikings on Wednesday
Night as District 11 Payoff Near
By Al Llghtner
SUverton's Silver Foxes established some sort of a reoord last
night st the Villa when they bumped the lit. Angel Preps from the
district 11 basketball tournament with a 14-13 victory, and qualified
themselves to play Salem in what might be the finale Wednesday
night. It was Silverton's fourth straight nod over Verdell JUgsdale's
Hilltoppers, but not once in the four times have grabbed a win by
more than a two-point margin:
In the first game played be-.
rween the two Willamette Valley
league rivals early in the season,
Jerry Gastineau's team won, 38
16, in overtime. The next game
was 39-38, also in overtime. Last
week In the current tournament
the Foxes came through 33-33.
And then to make it unanimous
they added last night's thrilleroo.
All of which should convince the
Preps they could stand a ipot of
two or three points when they
tangle with the Foxes.
Last night's addition was more
of a defensive Joust than anything
else as both sides refused to yield
to fast breaks by the other, and
checked closely when the enemy
did drive for the basket after
breaking through 'outer barriers.
Silverton led throughout the first
three periods, 7-4, 12-11 and 19
17 at the quarters.
Mt. Angel, puced mostly by the
shooting of Captain Larry Trae-
er, finally caught up late In the
inal frame. Jim Nosack's lay-in,
after a scramble for the ball In
the key, put the Preps in front
22-21. But Roger Tofte, Silver
ton's ace icorer, countered with
a one-hander from a side to give
the lead back to the Foxes. In the
final minute as both the players
and crowd neared berserkness,
Traeger pitched good with a free
throw to tie the count, but Tofte
again untied things as he too
made good with a gifter. That s
the way it ended, although both
Traeger and Arbuckle of Silver
ton missed free throws In the fin
al hectic seconds.
Traeger had a dozen points to
lead scorers. Tofte had nine for
place position . . . Silverton goes
Into the Wednesday game as strict
underdog, for Salem thumped the
Foxes last Saturday night, 51-31.

GORDON HESSELL

with Gypsy Joe Dorsettl. the
Coast lightheavy belt holder who
despite) wearing arings Is just
aa rough sad tough as they come
In tight. And inasmuch aa
Hart helped flop the Dorsettl
fTlssen has been exceedingly
impressive, as has Dick Sinertc.
Dick has been drawing the eehs
and aha down south not aa a pit
cher, bat as a hard-hitting out
fielder, and he Is rery apt to
wind up as a regular In the So
lon garden. Since third base Is
at present a question. Stnorlc
might bo tried there too. Tall
Jim Wert, the skinny kid op
tioned to IBsbee. Arts last sea
son, has added St pounds and
looks as If he's the lad to beat
out for the first base Job. He
and Marty Krug will battle it
out for that station, as things
look now. The pitching Is any
thing but disheartening. Along
with Klisura there is this new
comer Cal Mclrrtn. an improved
Bus Sporer, Ellason and . Gene
Peterson. Vince Laser, Hunk An
derson, maybe Ken Wyatt and
possibly one or two rookies who
might blossom before the WIL
bell rings In April.
With Joe Gedxlus at short and
Spaeter on second the nucleus
for a good infield Is assured.
Veteran Buster McMillan, hold
over Ralph Mohler and convert
ed Paul Halter could amount to
sufficient catching. Dick Gents
kow is expected to make it in
the outfield, along with Sinovlc.
and the newcomer from Stock
ton, Chet Hartman. should fit in.
Mclrrln also can patrol the outer-pastures
and can hit. Halter
might be returned to the garden
also. And one Bob Cherry, with
Denver in the class A Western
league last season. Is a definite
possibility as another candidate.
So things are looking up for
both Emlgh and Wilson. Right
now, at least.

PORTLAND, March 8 -Uff- Joe
Kahut, Oregon heavyweight slug-
Kr will meet Roy Hawkins of
rtland here April 6 with the
winner taking on Pat Comlskey of
New York in May.
Tight promoter Tex Salkeld said
the 10-round Kahut-Hawkins bout
was a switch from the original
plans to have Kahut meet Comls
key on the April date. The Ore-
on fighter's manager asked for
le change.
Kahut knocked out Bobby
Zander of Los Angeles last Tues
day to claim the Pacific Coast
heavyweight title for which the
bout was billed.
The Woorfburn, Ore , farm boy

Joint Football
CodeSought
CHICAGO.' March 8 -AV A
Joint football code for the nation's
college and high school teams to
day waa being voted upon by the
sport's pokeecnen for both groups.
If the vote Is favorable, the new
code will bo printed in time for
the 1948 season.
For severs 1 years, approximate
ly 100 difference existed in play
ing rules between the preps and
collegians which tended to In
crease the problem of college
coeches in handling upcoming
hich school performers.
In whittling down the differ
ences, the two groups left separ
ate provisions for length of con
test and substitutions. The col
lege game keeps its IS - minute
quarters and the high schools will
continue to play 12 -minute per
iods. Only one substitute may en
tor a college game while the clock
is running, against two high
school substitutes.

it was announced from Corvallis
Sunday that Cliff Crandall, back

injured In Saturday night's finale
with Oregon, will not be able to
plsy Tuesday. (Crandall suffered
a torn ligament! in his right knee

Beaver captain lis a terrific blow
to OSC, for he was the team's
foremost scoret and all-around

Torrey, a sophomore from Port

During the regular season Wash
ington and Oregon State divided

games at CorvafJis. Then the Hus
