It'a surely nice to read of tie Oregon Staters having a worry
over the capacity of their coliseum. Seems like a long time has
passed since there's been teams about that could fill any kind of
playing arena, especially here in' the Northwest What has always
seemed shameful to us is the fact that the lack of drawing power
has been so stressed and bemoaned. Of course we re kind of starry-
eyed, but amateur athletics, in the truest sense of the word, have
been too long among the missing; having fallen victim to that ogre,
tne gate receipts . . . f
i
As long as Oregon State Is fresh in our mind, we might
mention that some inquiries have been made about the lack ef
reference to the Beavers and their Webfoot friends in this eel
nmn. Perhaps it's because ef the abundance ef material print'
ed elsewhere in these pages about the larger schools, er maybe
it's our leaning to the simpler: life of the small college athletic
world. Confidentially, though, iwe're m befuddled by the high
powered strategy that is inundating Northern Division cage
play that we're at a loss for words . .
Gettini back to playing areas, the Willamette Bearcats got a
break when they were able to swap next weekend's home slate with
Pacific, moving the Friday night game into the State Street gym.
Originally, the Badgers were to visit saiem on Saturday mgnt, nost
ing the 'Cats in their own fair Friday. The reason for the change?
Seems that the Friday game was to have been played in the Badger
Bandbox rather than the Forest Grove High school gym. since tne
preps were scheduled at home that evening. The fast switch of vis
iting dates makes for mucn roomier conditions, dou xor me ieams
and the fans. Incidentally, Bruce Barker, former WU basketball
and baseball ton -flight performer, is coaching tne ore urove

After packed louses watched Seattle University dump the
Portland Pilots twice this weekend in tBe Portland Armory,
the call for TV coverageof local games has come up again. It
would be a natural for the Pilots to latch onto a fat television
contract, because their fans seem to have been staying home
anyway, with the exception of this last series. Fans in the Se
attle area have been able to see the Chieftains, now ranked
sixth nationally, play almost every weekend via TV . . .

game scoring.
In a two-game series with Col
lege of Idaho. R. C. Owens out
scored Vermillion 46 points to 34,
pulling Jerry's average to 2S.S for
15 games. Owens nudged his own
average up slightly but could not
move out of the fifth spot he held
a week ago. i
Running a strong second count
ing only games through last Satur
day is Don Porter of Portland
State, who is creasing the iron
loop at a 23.4 clip to squeeze Ore
gon State's Wade Halbrook out of
second spot..
Halbrook's average sagged nine
tenths of a point in the Oregon
series, but his 23 left him ahead of
Seattle University's Joe' Pehanick.
Big Joe closed ground on the lead
ers and his 22.2 average kept bin
comfortably in fourth place. On a
total point basis Pehanick, tacking
four games on his record during
th week, stepped ahead with 466
for the season. Halbrook followed
with 414.
The rest of the list is unchanged
except that Leon Keefe of South
ern Oregon is missing from ninth
place due to his school's failure
to report. Following Owens are
Jackie May of St. Martin's, Ron
Bennink of Washington State, Dick

averaging 17 or better.

PITTSBURG. Kan. ( - A 19-year-old
basketball player stood
Charged Wednesday with bilking
someone of $110 by pretending he
would enroll in college, buf whose
money he took brought a wide
variety of opinion.
Percy Barnes, a star at Kansas
City, Mo., Redemptqrist High
School last year, said he consider
ed the money "just the same as
mine," after he bad been charged
Tuesday with- obtaining money
under false pretenses.
Coach John Lance, basketball
coach at Pittsbursj State Teachers,
who filed the criminal complaint,
said the monejr had been left in his
care by an unnamed business man
as part of a scholarship fund.
But President Rees H. Hughes
said there was no college scholar
ship fund money involved in the
transaction.
"The controversial financial aid
fo Barnes was a personal matter,
not college. The arrangements for
it were between Coach Lance, the
boy and a Pittsburg business man
whose interest seemed to be in assisting-
a worthy: student to con
tinue in schooL"
Whether the payment of the mon
ey to Barnes by representatives
of the school was against the rules
of the Central Conference to which
Pittsburg belongs will probably be
decided later, an official said.
There had been no official action
or protest about the matter so far.
according to Prof. S. W. Cram of
Emporia State,' retiring president
of the conference.
The conference, be said, has no
specific rules on recruiting and
financial aid beyond adherence to
the North Central Assn. of Colleges
and Universities code. This .code
provides, he said, that no scholar'
ships are to be provided for stu
dents on any basis of athletic
ability. ' . t
Whether Lance's actions or those
of others at Pittsburgh would fall
within that rule he would not sav.
It seemed to hinge 1 on whether
Lance was acting as an agent of
the college in disbursing money
to athletes. Cram said. 5
Barnes, who previously had vis
ited the campuses: of three other
colleges and universities, is at lib
erty on $1,000 bond pending a
