So in this case three of the four learns would be repeaters from 1855, when Oregon State put the slut, to Seattle and San Francisco upended Utah the .first night, and then the Dons took the)r barn-burner from The Beavers the second. Many folks feel that the Dons won't be nearly so potent without their floor leader and playmaker, K. C. Jones who is ineligible for the playoffs. Others claim that the San Fran ciscans are so loaded that Jones won't be missed at all. Bob Feerick, the Santa Clara mentor who has to contend with the Dons each season in the California Basketball Association, puts it this way: "When they beat you by 20 points, Jones 'scores only 2. But when they beat you by 2 points, Jones will core 20." ! At any rate, it will be mighty interesting to see Just how the Dons do make out without their back-court whiz.

A-2 Tourney Hat Lost W$ 'Local Angle The State A-2 tournament at South Salem High suf fered a bad blow, from a local angle, when both the Serra Catholic Sabers and Salem Academy Crusaders went down in the district playoffs at McMinnville. There's nothing like a local touch in cage tourney, both from the standpoint of interest and accompanying attendance. Along with many others we had hoped to see either Leo Grosjacqucs' Sabers or Bob Funk's Crusaders make the grade. As it is now, we'll have to pull for Cal Hersey's Cascades and Fred Graham's Staytons to come through, as both are still alive, in the district struggle. Same goes for Silverton, Woodburn, Dallas and ML Angel in the District 4 A-2 elimi nations which begin at Molalla this weekend ... ' Although Saturday nights final round will produce the District A-l tourney winner here, the two Friday night openers are actually the big ball games. Winners of the Fridiy games art qualified for the Eugene jaunt, for both the first and second placers in the local melee get to go to the A-l tournament Thus the Saturday night championship tussle wilf be anticlimactic, unless it happens to involve the resident Vikings and Saxons. Saturday night's "preliminary" will be whopper for both teams involved, for the winner of it retains a chance for a state tourney berth. The No. 3 finisher is to play the No. S club of District 5, and the winner ti that one g oej to luzm eJao t i .
