tice Tuesday can spring be far

Yes, it certainly can. Spring
Can be very far away in spite of
the sun shining while I'm giving
this mill the one-two. Why say
fellow, the toughest part of the
basketball season hasn t even
started, so don't sell Old Man
Casaba short.
Starting as early as Thursday
night the hoop wars really begin
to hum. Six county independent
nuinlrls stage a playoff at Spring
field high Thursday, Iriday and
Saturday. Then next Tuesday
jiight the "A" and "B" high school
oil-stars of the county tangle with
the first and second University of
Oregon freshmen clubs in a Finn
ish fund benefit, with a game be
tween the Junior Rubes and the
Duckling "John Day Rangers"
tossed in for good measure.
Wednesday in Portland the I
Riibenslein Oregonians and the
McKee Bakers of Springfield open
four-day campaigns for "A" and
"B" division slate A. A. U. cham
pionships, respectively. Thursday
is the opening of the annual Lane
county "B" league basketball
tournament at Mi-Arthur court, an
event rated the top athletic con
test o the year- by our country
cousins and many Eugene rest
dents as well.
Although no official announce
ment has been made, the district
"B" plavoff will probably be held
at Junction City high the follow
ing Friday and Saturday. Then
comes it, the state championship
tournament with University high
more of a cinch to represent this
district than Oregon State to an

It appears quite likely Lane
cotinly might have two entries at
Salem attain this season. The
eounlv "B" contenders arc rated
considerably weaker than last sea
eon, but several quintets have
shown great improvement during
the past few weeks. While Pleas
ant Hill remains the outstanding
contender, don't sell Oakridge
short. The Warriors have the Sa
lem habit, winning the state "B"
title last season after finishing no
better than runner-up in the
county playoff.
Uni high might surprise critics.
The Tide was rated pre-scason
favorite in the district 7, but act
ually Ray llendrickson's aggrega
tion has less individual talent than
potential material on any of the
other five league squads. The
campus mentor has done a fine
coaching Job and displayed a team
against Eugene high last week that
measured up to the club that was
a definite threat at Salem last
year.

Bobby Lindh, sophomore for
ward, increased his lead in the
northern division. Pacific coast
conference basketball scoring race
as the Washington Huskies de
feated the Washington State Cou
gars 53-52 Tuesday night to split
their two-game Pullman series
and definitely eliminate W. S. C.
from the running.
Lindh scored 11 points to bring
his total to date to 157. His near
est competitors are Burl Olson of
Washington Stale, who has 123
and John Dick of Oregon, who has
120.
Lindh set a new scoring record
for sophomore players at the Uni
versity of Washington by his
sharpshooting. The previous rec
ord of 146 points was set by John
ny Fuller during the season of
1931.
With the Huskies having but
two games remaining, Lindh has
little chance of hitting the Ore
gon division record of 191 set by
Laddie Gale of Oregon In 1938.
The Huskies won on a freethrow
by Bob Dorr, substitute forward,
in the last half minute of play af
ter Capt. Bill McDonald had
pulled them into a 52-52 tie with
a pot-shot from the sidelines with
only a minute left to play.

sional, for tho Western open lead
at 293 and was the favorite for the

Eugene high bowed out of the
district 7 league basketball race
Tuesday night by dropping a
heart-breaking 20-19 decision to
its intra-city rivals, St. Mary's
high. The exit was anything but
graceful because twice in the last
five seconds the Axemen had op
portunities to lie and win the
game.
It was a close batlle from the
opening minute despite a six-poin
lead for the Axemen in the first
five minutes of play, with the
score being knotted three times
and the advantage changing on six
other occasions. But. the big thrills
came in the final 90 seconds after
Ray Blatchley's basket on a free
ball under the hoop cut the Saint
lead to one point.
Gaels Stall Unsuccessfully
In the final stages the Galloping
Gaels tried a stalling game with
little success. Al Kuppenbender
refused to try for one freethrow
in the last minute in order to al
low the Saints to keep command
of the ball. But in the last 30
seconds Noel Dion chose to try
for a free shot and missed, the
Axemen taking command, but Dion
took a free ball and missed a set
up that would have salted the
game for St. Mary's. Then in the
last five seconds Dion fouled
Bruce Frye.
The regular guard, who played
as a sub Tuesday, barely missed
the shot and Loren Skirvm cross
ed the foul lane to attempt to curl
in the winning basket. The ball
rolled around the rim and out.
The game ended before either
team could advance with the ball.
Stonewall" Zilkowski gave St.
Mary's first blood with a free
throw, but Blatchley's gifter knot
ted the score. Bob Deller, Duane
Marshall and Harold Hagg scored
to give Eugene a 7-1 lead in the
fust five minutes. Although the
Saints failed to score from the
field they trailed by only a 7-5
margin al the end of the opening
period.
Score Tied at 12-A11
Hagg opened the second period
with his second one-hander from
behind the key, but Kuppenbender
collected St. Mary's first field goal
after 10 minutes of play to cut the
margin to 9-7. Midway in the
period Joe Taubenkrau canned a
