THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND. OREGON. TUESDAY. FEB. 20, 1945
Tourney
Schedule Drawn
For Ball
In Early March
Plans lor the 1945 Central Ore
eon basketball tournament, in
which five teams are scheduled to
take part, assumed definite form
today with tne announcement
that tourney play will be in
Prineville, on March 1, 2 and 3.
Fairings for tournament games
were made by officials of the
Oregon High School Athletic as
sociation, of which Tom Pigott
Is secretary, and the letter con
taining the results of the drawing
was opened here In the presence
of Reteree Don Fawcett; It. E.
Jewell, chairman of the district
No. 3 basketball committee, and
Phil F. Brogan of The Bend Bul
letin. Redmond was named team
No. 1. for tourney play pur
poses, and Burns was designated
as team No. 2, with Bend holding
the No. 3 spot. Lakeview was
selected as team No. 4 and Prine
ville as No. 5.
Schedule Outlined
Oh the opening night of the
tournament, March 1, Redmond
and Burns will play the first
game, followed by Bend and Lake
view. Prineville drew the bye for
the first night.
On March 2, the two losers
will nlav the first game and Prine
ville will play the winner of the
Redmond, Burns game. The
winner of this game will play
the winner of the Bend Lakeview
game on the final night for the
Central uregon cnampionsmp.
The preliminary on the third
night of play will be the playoff
lor third place.
Plans for the five-team toiirrta.
ment were set up early this year
by the district No. 3 basketball
committee. It was originally
planned to hold the tournament
in Redmond's gymnasium, pro
viding that new structure was
ready for use, but as tourney time
neared it became evident that the
new building would not be avail
able. It was agreed that the
tourney should be held In Prine
ville if the Redmond gymnasium
were not ready.
Taking part in the tournament
will be Prineville, Redmond, Bend,
Burns and Lakeview. When the
tourney plans were originally
made, the Schedule was drawn up
on a basis of team numbers. As
the result of the O. H. S. A. A.
drawing, the numbers were , as
signed to each of the partici
pating schools.
Piluso, Fawcett Signed
District basketball committee
officials have also announced the
signing of Emil Piluso and Don
Fawcett as tourney officials. The
two men will work together for
the first two evenings, and
Fawcett will work alone In the
finals, as Piluso has a previous
committment as the Oregon-Oregon
State game.
Prospects are that the battle
for the Central Oregon basket
ball championship will be one of
the hottest In decades, with Prine
ville, Redmond and Bend defi
nitely in the contest.

By Jack Cuddy
(United I'reu Staff Correspondent)
New York, Feb. 20 UPi -It seems
to us that the midnight curfew on
entertainment, which goes Into ef
fect nationally on Monday, will
help boom sports generally.
However, the war - momentum
that makes necessary this "re
quest" from Moblllzer James F.
Byrnes apparently spikes any
lingering hopes that racing can be
theJ re-opened in the spring.
The only sports enterprises, now
carrying on, that would seem to
suffer from the curfew are bowl-;
ing and billiard establishments.
Their activitles.wlll.be forced to
cease at midnight.
Betting on sports probably will
be increased considerably.
Sports like baseball, football,
boxing, wrestling and hockey
most of which already are enjoy
ing wartime prosperity should
boom under the new restriction
for two reasdns: (t) fans who nor-
pmally "blowl a portion of their
spending money in the late spots,
like night clubs and saloons,
should have more available time
now for sports; and (2) persons
who are denied late entertainment
may turn to sports for diversion.
Although there is little similar
ity between the curfew and pro
hibition, which was supposed to
prevail In the United States from
1920 to 1933, it Is recalled that the
"golden decade" of sports came
during thut "dry" period. Speak
easies flourished during that de
cade; but nevertheless It was
much more difficult for the ordi
nary fan to blow his dough in the
"Joints" than It has been since
repeal. The plentilude of money
available for sports In those days
was Just as Important in causing
the "golden decade" as Were the
great performers who featured It
Jack Dempsey, Bane Ruth,
Bobby Jones, Bill Tilden, Earl
Sande, etc.
Before yesterday's announce
ment of the curfew, hope had been
increasing among racing men that
the Christmas-eve ban might lie
lifted hy spring, permitting the
horses to go into their golden gal
lop again. But the war situation
necessitating the curfew seems
to blast that hope definitely.
It Is true that the curfew was
requested primarily as a means of
saving fuel, because of the coal
shortage; but Byrnes said he be
lieves it also would help conserve
transportation and manpower. He
said he was convinced thai the
public will gladly accept the cur-
Piles! Ow!!
But He SMILES. Now
few "in view of the fact that in
the period just ahead of us, those
In the armed services will be mak
ing greater sacrifices than ever
before."
Last week, after returning from
the Crimea conference, Byrnes
said that more men will be In.
combat during March than ever
before. These statements, com-1
bined With the drastic curfew.
measure, leave little hope of re
opening the tracks until the Euro
pean1 wifr Js eiide'd, at least. Be
cause, apparently, the momentum
of war will' be constantly stepped
up until that goal is achieved.-
Betting has increased tremend
ously during the past 10 years, and
particularly - during the war. It
seems certain that much money
whieh ordinarilv would be spent In
the late spots, will be diverted now
into betting channels, booming the
bookie business throughout the
country, Althdugh the Horse
plants are closed, the public is
wagering actively on other sports.
Baseball will geta terrific betting
play when the Season opens.
We know of ho reason why mid
night closing should curtail night
baseball, boxing, etc. Rarely havej
regularly -scneduled night games
lasted past midnight; and pro
fessional boxing shows never do.
since the team is riding Ihe crest
of a five-game winning streak,
during which they have won three
conference games arid two non
conference affairs. .
Oregon isn't expected td fee at
top physical form for the Idaho
series, but Coach Warren hopes
to have his team in good enough
shape to give the Idahoahs a battle
all the way. ,

Eugene, Ore., Feb. 20 ai
Now that the University of Ore

that they must win the Northern
division title if indeed they do

The Oi-egon team is deadlocked

the leadership and Washington
State is only a breath behind.
Coach John Warren told his
Oregon charges last night that the
results of the fourth and last Ore
gon State game will mean noth

Idaho games. If the Webfeet stum

a ditch. His Second shot crossed
the fairway and hit another ditch.
He was on the green in four and
single-putted for a five. Snead,
hitting them straight to the pin,
kept out of trouble and holed his
putt for four and the match.
Then as the crowd surged in to
congratulate the chairtpion, his

the sportsmanship Incident.
Snead, he said, could have wort
