Vikings Overcome
Early Corvallis Lead
By Winte Waldo
Salem high Vikings protected
their undefeated mark in Big Six
league play Tuesday night, but
they had to struggle through three
periods of slow, sloppy hooping
with a listless Corvallis crew to do
1L The score was 35-29.
Except for the first eight minutes
of Tuesday's Viking-Spartan mix,
the game was played in a slow
tempo with neither teajn able to
find their shooting eyes.
In fact, there was a grand total
of exactly four 4) field goals
scored in the entire second half,
two for each team.
Corvallis started out likejthey
meant business and boomedS4nto
a 3-0 lead after two minutes n a
field goal and free throw by Roy
Strand and a set shot swlsher by
Gary Babcock.
Wayne Walling broke the ice
(almost literally, with a 16-degree
temperature outside) for Salem
with a free throw, and Larry
Chamberlain plunked In a lay-up
after a floor-length dribble to close
Corvallis' lead to 5-3.
Von Summers hit a free toss for
Corvallis, but Wailing came back
with a Salem bucket on a leaping
pivot shot and Jim Rock stole the
spheroid from a Spartan and layed
in a pair of points to give Salem
- its first lead of the game. 7-8. That
was with four and half minutes
left in the lively first canto.
Don Taylor came booming In
from the side for a lay-up that
Save Corvallis the lead again, 8-7,
ut Doug Rogers, who led the Vik
Yictory with 11 points, then sank
leaping push shot from the key
to put Coach Harold Hauk's club
out front 9-8.
The Vikings increased their lead
to 13-8 before Dick Humble mark
ed up a single tally for Jhe visitors,
The first quarter ended 13-9.
From there on out, the game
grew into an affair that might
have reminded you of ten men
slushing about the streets these
days. It was just a bad night for
both teams, with each glad the
other team was experiencing an off
night.
The third period was worst of
all. Salem could only muster 3
points, all on free throws, while
Corvallis managed to gather only
4, with ont field goal and ft pair
of gifters.
Salem led 25-21 as the fourth
' quarter opened. Corvallis threat
ened in the final minute' of play
when they drew up to within 3
points of the leaders, 32-29, but
free throws by Gordy Sloan, Girod
and Larry Chamberlain wrapped
the game up for Salem in the wan
ing seconds. , - , .
