Hold Hiqh Hopes
Out Our Way
Eocene. Ore.. March 13 (IB Dp
termined to duplicate the feat of
the 1939 University of Oregon Das
kotball team which won the north
' ern division championship and
then went on to become the na
tional titlist, the Oregon Web
feet are getting set for the on
slaught of the Washington State
Cougars this niaay.
Having won one leg of the
northern division title by defeat
ing WSC last Saturday, 51 to 41,
the Oregon team naturally has the
advantage, needing only one more
victory to take the playoff. More
over, the Webfeet could lose Fri
day's game and still would have
a chance to end up with the cham
pionship. Not Veteran Team
However, should Coach John
Warren's basketeers ultimately
win the right to play in Madison
Square Garden against the east's
best, it won't be a veteran team
like the one that won laurels in
1939. It will be a freshman out
fit, with only one letterman
Bob Hamilton, junior guard and
sparkplug ol the team.
Warren credits his team's suc
cess this year to the fact that
players have had plenty of games,
and they have learned thpir bas
ketball as they went. Thus, de
spite their early season Inexperi
ence, tney developed inlo a team
good enough to tie ror the north
ern division title.
A capacity crowd is in prospect
for Friday's game and It appears
certain that another mob of 7,000
fans will also turn out for Satur
day's show, If one is held.

Eight Oregon "A" high school
hoop squads, survivors of rigid
tests of district and Inter-district
play, prepared today to entrain
for Salem where there they will
battle it out for the state basket
ball championship in a three-day
tournament starting Thursday aft
ernoon. The tournament appears to
have everything to pack hoop
thrills from the opening whistle
of the first battle to the final gun
in the championship game Satur
day night.
Three favorites, a dark horse, a
potential "giant. killer" and three
other clubs that have proven they
will be rugged competition com
prise the eight teams set to do
battle for the state's highest bas
ketball honor.
Big Game Billed
Two of the favorites, Washing
ton high school of Portland and
the Eugene Axemen, are slated to
face each other in the opening
game of the tourney, Thursday
afternoon at 3 o'clock. The other
favorite, undefeated Medford,
draws the possible "giant killing"
Veronia Loggers, who survived
district 13-14 play.
tne possible dark horse of the
tournament is Newberg. The
Tigers weren't rated much in
hoop affairs of the state until they
knocked out McMinnville in dis
trict competition and then went
on to drop Lebanon twice to win
a ticket to Salem. The Newberg
crew is slated to face the highly
touted Baker Bulldogs in another
Thursday afternoon game.
Two other teams, Hillsboros
Spartans and Oregon City are
scheduled for the finale of Thurs
day night's schedule.

First baseman Schultz, a bona
fide student of Hamline (during
the oft -season) received much
publicity. Whether this publicity
needled his draft board, we do not
know. Anyway, Schultz who
stretches up six feet seven Inches
was reported last week to have
boon reclassified 1-A. Previously
he had been in 4 F because he is
one inch taller than the army and
navy limit of six feet six.

mighty interested In these reclas

his person to - person call for
Schultz at St. Paul. And Branch
was naturally flabbergasted when
