s The defending state champion
' Eugene High Axemen survived the
first round of the state tourna
ment Wednesday night by scoring
I 44-36 victory over Coach Son
r Mabee's La Grande Tigers.
Left-handed Ernie Wilde was
f the big factor in the Axeman vic
itory. He led the attack for Eu-
' gene with 12 points and played his
J always excellent floor game. Fred
I Jarrard of La Grande was high
i for the game, however, with 13
points.
Meet K-rUs
! The Axemen now go into the
! quarter-final round against the
i powerful Klamath Falls Pelicans,
The clash will be' the finale of
Thursday night's quarter-final ao
ition.
La Grande's star guard, Bobby
j Green, sprained his ankle in a
I workout earlier in the week but he
was one of the best guards in the
J tournament. He got eight points
I for the Tigers and showed plenty
' of speed and ball-handling ability
, despite his bad ankle,
i Take Lead Early
j - Coach Hank Kuchera's Eugene
i ans jumped into an early lead after
i45 seconds of play as Dick Gar
jrett canned a field goal from the
I comer. The Tigers were never able
to go out in front, although they
j threatened until the last few min
lUtes. J Eugene was out in front, 14-5,
; at the end of the first quarter. The
t Tigers moved up to 12-10 and 14
j 18 during the second quarter but

Jarrard and Bill Coleman both
'canned freethrows to bring the
Tigers up to 33-30 as the fourth

favored to move out to the semi
final spots in the upper bracket
and Salem is heavily favored to
triumph over Newberg. And the
winner's semi-flnl opponent will
emerge from the Klamath Falls-
Pelicans Edge
Tough Lebanon
They saved the best till the last.
The final game of the first round
of the state tournament Wednes
day night at McArthur Court be
tween the Klamath Falls Pelicans
and the Lebanon Warriors was by
far the most spectacular in first
round action. The heavily favored
Pelicans were barely able to
squeeze by with a 63-57 victory.
The underdog Leoanon outui,
with three sophomores in the
starting lineup, stayed right with
the Pelicans all the way. Tne score
with four minutes remaining fa
vored Klamath Falls, 51-48. Ray
Craig made it 53-48. But then the
Warriors came on with a rush
and pulled up to 52-53 as Elmer
Fields and Paul Alley scored long
field goals.
Craig scored again for Klamath
but Alley retaliated immediately
for Lebanon to make the score 55
Klamath, 54 Lebanon. Gene
Hoover scored two freethrows for
the Pelicans on Dick Grays foul
but with two minutes to go Alley
again scored a long one-hander to
make it 57-56.
At that point Coach Wayne
Scotf s Pelicans put the game away
as the plucky Warriors couldn't
stop Hoover, Bob Redkey and
Craig from scoring in succession
to put the Pelicans seven points
out in front. Jack Evans, as good
s guard as anyone showed in the
first round and a sophomore at
that, scored one more freethrow
for Coach Page's outfit before the
game ended.
- Paul Alley was high for the
game with 19 points. Gene Hoover
got 18 for Klamath.
KLAMATH FALLS (SS) TO
Eugene game, and who it will be
is anybody's guess,
Trouble Expected
The Eugeneans had trouble on
the backboards against the La
Grande club and it appears they
will have even more trouble from
the lanky Klamath crew. Another
new tournament attendance rec
ord is expected Thursday night to
see the doubleheader with Salem
against Newberg and Eugene
against Klamath Falls.
Salem displayed speed, size and
drive in its opening-round victory
over the tough Roosevelt outfit.
The Big Six League champions
have plenty of big rugged boys
around the backnoaras ana a
couple of capable guards in Roger
Dasch and Dick Hendrie,
Eusena will be the underdog
Thursday night against the Klanv
ath outfit but if the Axemen start
to roll they may give the Fencans
the final nudge out of champion
ship consideration that Klamath
Falls almost got from the War
riors Wednesday night.

Roosevelt High
rnnrh Harold Hauk's Salem
Vikings lived up to their advance
notice by advancing to me quarter-final
round over Roosevelt of
Portland, 63-35.
The runner-up team from Port
land looked like they might make
a battle of it and the game was
the most bitterly contested of any
of the first round games. Roose
vMt hattled furiously aeainst the
rugged Vikings and tempers flared
several times. The game cooled
off later, however, when the Vik
ings went so far out in front that
there was no hope left for the
Teddies.
Salem led 14-9 at the end of the
first quarter and 33-21 at the half.
The Vikings atretched it to 47-28
at the three-quarter mark. Coach
Rollie Rourke's Roosevelt crew,
despite some good work by Jack
son Winters, could not keep the
Vikings in check and they were
going away when the game enaea,
Bie Bill Hill led the Salem at

got 11 and Dick Hendrie got 11 for
the Vikings.
