WALLA WALLA. Feb. 14-(Special)
-Willamette university's hope
for a Northwest conference bas
ketball championship was handed
a non-appreciated "valentine" to
night when the Whitman Mission
aries led practically throughout to
take a S8-S1 victory over the vis
itors. It was 33-28 at halftim
and only once, when the score
was 2-0, did the Bearcats enjoy
a lead.
The loss was No. 2 for Coach
Johnny Lewis team in league
play, as against four wins. The
leading Lewis it Clark Pioneers,
who play Willamette at Salem
Friday night, have six wins, one
loss. The Bearcats remain In sec
ond place, half a game up on
Whitman.
The Cats, who have had better
shooting percentages this season
than they had tonight, rose to
a 20-26 tie shortly before half
time, but dropped back when
Blickenstaff and Jack Heron,
Whit sharpshooters, bucketed the
home team ahead. The Method
ists whacked the lead to four
points with three minutes left to
play, but again Heron & Co. took
over to hike the margin
Whitman played a ball control
and set-'em-up offensive game
and most of the feeding was done
to the six-foot, three-inch Heron

ference's top scorers.
Only Center Jim Johnson of
Willamette seemed to bo up on
bis shooting. He hemped 12
markers, six more than brother
