Willamette's Bearcats made a clean sweep of their two-game hoop
aeries with College of Puget Sound's Loggers Saturday night in the
WU arena as they, notched a hectic 72-65 verdict but winning, the
final joust of the set from the die-hard Tacomans proved a much
harder chore for John Lewis' courtmen than was the case in the Fri
day night opener. i
fK- Cain-riaY eve fray '
brawlish affair in spots was in
doubt almost to the final gun, but
a burst of points wun oweu -,,,t
lpft brouzht the Methodists
through to their second victory of
th young campaign as a&uust
equal number of setbacks.
John Heinrick's Loggers were in
the bal' game aU the way and
when Center Don Maitland and
Guard Jake Mayberry led the men
th north to within two
noints at 61-63 with 2:10 left, you
would nave xounu w
wager either, way on the outcome.
Lanky Doug ixgue, uie
rtonrinnt of the evening with 23
points and a great job at -the
backboards, popped in a lay-in on
a nice pass from Larry Smith to up
the WU margin but Mayberry
back with a 12-foot push
shot from the right side, putting
the count at 63-65 with iuu re
maining. Cats Sew Up Game
Then came the Willamettes' cli
mactic and winning point burst.
Dick Hoy, the driving freshman
guard, sneaked through for a
cripple and then Larry Smith, tak
ing over after Dick Mase went out
on infractions early in the fourth
quarter, hit two quick field buck
ets one a 20-foot toss to spring
the locals into a comfortable 71-63
m argil with less than a minute to
go. Daryl Girod plunked a gifter
and Russ Wilkerson canned a long
desperation heave for CPS to com
plete the scoring.
The Loggers were a much im
proved outfit from the one of Fri
day night, both under the boards
and at jamming up the WU offense
with a zone barricade. But even
so. the Lewis bunch was behind
only once in the ball game and that
in the first seconds when Maitland
holed a 15-footer to open the scor
ing. Willamette had a 20-14 lead at
the first-quarter buzzer, was on
top 36-28 at the intermission and
had the long end of a 54-49 count
when the third period wound up.
Lorae Hits 'Em
Logue was the big man for the
'Cats in the initial half, whipping
in six baskets and three charity
tosses for 15 markers in the first
20 minutes in addition to working
his six-feet, six-inches to good ad
vantage on rebounds. Mase con
tributed 10 points to Willamette's
first half attack.
Forward Dwayne Westlin, the
Loggers' main gun of the evening,
pulled his. team back into the thick
of things in the third quarter as
he dumped in 13 tallies in that
period alone. He got 16 for the
night.
Ope troublesome factor for the
Bearcats was wild passing which
gave the ball to the enemy on no
few occasions.
Mase was next to Logue in the
Willamette scoring column with 16
points, and Larry Smith followed
with 10. Next to Westlin for Puget
Sound was Mayberry with 14.
A total of 45 fouls were whistled
during the contest, in addition to
a couple of technicals on CPS
one of 'em being charged to the
bench for yowling at the officials.

SEATTLE, Dec. 8-jP-Slippery
Joe Cipriano racked up 22 points
tonight, pointing the way to Wash
ington's second straight basket
ball victory over the invading
Bruins of UCLA, 76-61.
Mike McCutchen seconded the
Cipriano efforts with 16 points as
the two junior back-courters put
on a shooting show for the crowd
of 7,200. UCLA did a fair job of
solving the problem of Bob
(Hooks) Houbregs, who tallied 18
last night in the Huskies' 60-52
decision. He still managed to dunk
13 tonight
The youthful Uclans, outreached
and outgunned, nevertheless made
a battle of it in the second half,
once pulling to within eight points
at 43-36. They had trailed, 38-24,

From Behind
EUGENE, Ore., Dec. 6-(JP)-Vtah
battled from behind in the final
minutes to edge Oregon, 64-62,
here tonight and sweep a two
game series with the Ducks. Bas
kets by Paul Shrum and Glen
Smith in the final two minutes
gave the visitors their winning
tallies.
Smith matched his last night's
total of 23 points to take scoring
honors again. Bob Peterson, big
Oregon forward, was next with
21.
The underdog Ducks, behind
35-31 at the half, found their
shooting eyes in the third quar
ter. With Guard Ken Hunt held
out in the first half because of
an ankle injury, and Forward
Keith Farnum hitting uncannily
from the field, Oregon moved to
a 52-46 lead midway in the pe
riod. Guard Paul Shrum sparked a
comeback that pulled Utah into a
tie early in the fourth period. The
score was knotted three times aft
er that before Shrum and Smith
hit for the clinchers. Hunt's driv
ing shot from a corner closed the
scoring with a minute to go, and
Utah stalled out the clock.
Utah led through most of the
first half until the closing min
utes when Oregon tied it. Two
baskets by Smith gave the In
dians their half-time advantage.
There were 12 ties in the game,
which was watched by 4,500 fans.

Cage Scandals
'Sign of Decay
WASHINGTON, Dec. 8 -VP)-Rev.
Louis M. O'Leary, pastor of
St Andrews church, Cincinnati,
O., said today the most disturbing
feature of the recent basketball
scandals is that "they mark the
extent and depth of the moral de
cay of this nation."
There are far greater crimes
than those committed by college
boys who planned a fix with gam
blers, said Father O'Leary at a
solemn high mass dedicating
Georgetown university's new Mc
Donough Memorial gymnasium.
March. Noticeably absent from the
lineup this season is the Page

seasons dominated City cage play
and often represented Salem in
the various state tournaments.
The City league is again this
season sponsored by the City
