GENERAL NEWS THE 1 BEND BULLETIN i't .CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER SPORTS 34th Year TWO SECTIONS BEND, DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON, FRIDAY, MARCH 17, 1950 Bradley, N.Y.C. Will Compete In Hoop Finals By Norman Miller (UniUil PreM Sport Writer) New York, March 17 'Hi Brad ley's poised, powerful Braves and the Beavers from City college of New York will meet in the finals of the National Invitation tourna ment tomorrow, night and the survivor will Inherit an opportu nity to become the nation's un disputed basketball champion. By winning the N.I.T., the un seeded Beavers, who defeated Du quesne 62 to 52 in the semi-finals last night, can clinch a bid to rep resent district two in the N.C.A.A. tournament and a chance to win an unprecedented "grand slam." Top-seeded Bradley, which knocked off dogged St. John's, 83 to 72, in the semi-finals before ti crowd of 18,000 at Madison Square garden, faced a similar opportunity. The Braves will leave immediately after tomorrow night's final for Kansas City, Mo., where they will meet Kansas for the right to represent district five in the N.C.A.A. tourney. The betting was that Bradley, which looked far more impres. sive in its semi-final triumph last night than did C.C.N.Y., had the better chance to make it. The Braves from Peoria, 111., led by brilliant six . foot two . inch guard Bill Mann, showed plenty of gameness and class in beating St. John's. City college, though still a threat, appeared to have cooled off somewhat from the amazing pace it set in eliminating defend ing champion San Francisco and second-seeded Kentucky in the first two rounds. Bradley, which trailed 13 to 4 in the first five minutes of play and 37 to 30 late in the first half, fought back with three points by Gene Melchiorre and two field goals by Fred Schlichtman to cut the Redmen's margin to one point at the Intermission. Then, trailing 41 to 39 in the second minute of the final half, the midwesterners battled back into the lead permanently with an uninterrupted 10-point spree. During that rally, Mann' twice drove:ri ' for " successful' layup shots, was fouled, and converted the free throw as Bradley opened a 53 to 45 bulge. Twice after that, the Redmen from Brooklyn fought back into contention, but the Braves pulled away to a comfortable 62 to 53 advantage. Mann led Bradley in scoring with 16 points, while Melchiorre contributed 15 and Schlichtman 14. Bob Sawoluk hooped 23 and Gerry Calabrese 19 In St. John's courageous but futile bid to pull the game out of the fire. CCNY, after a tight opening 10 minutes, pulled away to a 19 to 12 lead in the 13th minute and led 26 to 19 at half time. Ed Warner scored 19 points to lead the Beavers and remain the tournament's highest individual scorer thus far with 71 points In three games. Sport Parade By Oscar Fraley (United Pres HporU Writer) Grants Pass, Roosevelt High Victorious, Along With Salem, Corvallis in Hoop Tourney Eugene, March 17 (U.E) Defending champion Roosevelt of Portland plays Grants Pass and a surprising Corvallis team faces perennial contender Salem tonight, in semi-finals games of the 32nd annual Oregon state class "A" high school bas ketball tournament. Roosevelt cracked tough Central Catholic of Portland, 46 to 44 last night; Grants Pass nosed out Mac-Hi of Milton- 1-reewater 45 to 4:5; Salem knocked Jefferson high of Portland out of the title race, 44 to 11, and Corvallis, in the upset of the tournament, eliminat ed Marshfield, 39 to 36. In a consolation game played late yesterday afternoon, La Grande eased by Eugene, 72 to 70. The defending champs dropped Central Catholic of Portland last night before about 6,000 fans- aft er Central nailed .down the lead through the first period of play. Teddies Come Back The Teddies bounced back dur ing -the second quarter to build up a lead of 27-12 at halftime. Dur ing third period play, Central got back in the game and tied it up at 29; 31, and 33 before going into the led. Roosevelt moved into the last three minutes with a one-point lead, 45-44, and held onto the ball long enough to freeze out any Central hopes for scoring a field goal. High scorer for Roosevelt was George Lavalley with 12 points Bob Altenhofen, Central center, got 13 points. In another quarter-finals game Corvallis beat Marshfield, 39-36, in the tourney's first major upset. At the end of the first quarter Marshfield led 13-6. Corvallis took a second quarter lead, but fell behind a Marshfield rally as the coastal team ended the half with a 19-18 advantage. Won In Tlurd Corvallis virtually won the game in the third period by hold ing Marshfield to only one point, a free throw, while scoring eight points. After once taking the lead in this frame, Corvallis kept it until the end of the game. Center Roy Strand of Corvallis was high man of the game with 14 points. Bar ney Holland, who sparked one of Marshfield's last-period rallies, got 11 points for the losers. Salem beat Jefferson of Port land, 44-41, in the tournament's first overtime game this year. At the end of the first period balem held a 13-10 lead. Halftime result favored Salem 18-17. Jeff grabbed the lead for the first time, 19-18, as the second half opened. At the end of the period the game was all knotted up at 30-all. During the last three minutes of normal play, Salem got one free shot and one field goal to tie up the game at 39-all. No more scoring occurred and the game went into overtime. Captain Daryl Girod of Salem got the only field goal scored in the overtime play, and Salem pushed out to 41-39. Free throws, three by Salem and two by Jeff, decided the 44-41 contest. In Sa lem's favor. Jefferson's high scorers were Ron Fundginsland and Quentin (Continued on Page 8) New York, March 17 U' After a careful study of last year's standings, the 1948 batting aver ages and the 1947 pitching rec ords, .Fearless Fraley announced with some pride today that it will be the Boston Red Sox and the Brooklyn Dodgers In the 1950 world series. It can't miss. Because, in addi tion to my well-known policy of getting there firstest with the worstest, I devised a new selec tion system this year to figure out in advance just where each team is going to finish in the major league pennant races. This being St. Patrick's day, it's simple. So simple it would fright en a sane man, which leaves me simply Old Fearless. One way would be to take the team with the most Irishmen on it, divide by four, multiply by one take two and hit to right. "The Other Way" But there's a better way than that. Abstaining from spring training where you might get so close to the woods you couldn't see the trees, you take the juice of four oranges (half Florida and half California), add one-half cup of grapefruit juice, add two jig gers of wait a second, there's something wrong there: Well, it probably wouldn't make sense anyhow. But it came out like this: American League Bonton Red Sox , . . Detroit Titters New York Yankti . Cleveland Indians . Phila. Athletics . . , Chicago White Sox St. Louis Browns . Wash. Senators . . National League Brooklyn DodKers . . . St. LouiB Cants Philadelphia Phils ..New York Giants . . . Boston Braves rittsburich PirBtes Chicago Cubs . . Cincinnati Reds That VA is just to denote the mellowness Which comes with age. Old Fearless just doesn't like to put anybody in eighth place and it's nice that there aren't 10 clubs in the leagues. Nice for Washington and Cincinnati. Detroit Factor On this, of all days, you have to go along with a gent named McCarthy. And besides, it's time he ran those 1948 and 1949 snak es out of Boston. Detroit will be up there, for those Tigers will cause more trouble than Oklahoma C i t y's leopard. As for the Yanks, this guy must be from the south, of Mis souri. I still don't think they won last year. In Cleveland, anybody caught sitting on a flagpole should be farmed out to the booby hatch league; the A's are ruining Con nie's dreams of a nifty fifty, and (Continued on Page 8) iMittPI ' V A W-MZNiMlE ' I Ml rang of tliei and wheel.

No. 86 East Central State Quintet Favorites in NAIB Tourney By Charles Nethaway (United Pro. Srjxjrts WrikYr) Kansas City, Mo. March 17 (U.E) The sharp-passing, smoothly meshing team from East Central State college of Ada, Okla., was installed in the favorite's role in the NAIB basketball tournament today as the four survivors met in the semi-final round. East Central was slated to clash with rnntmi li.,n-n f Fayette, Mo., tonight in the second game after the Univer sity of Tampa meets Indiana aiaie in tne opener. k J I I I i I ml nooa Aerial Tramway Started Government Camp, March 17 ("'' Heavy hoisting equipment was to right the first skiway coach to the Mt. Hood aerial pas. senger tramway here this afternoon. The "tree-top" tramway rises 2,135 feet up Mt. Hood to Timber line lodge, which is at the 6,000 mark on the mountain. Thirty.slx seated and 14 stand, ing passengers can be carried on the coach. The $500,000 project is the world's longest, at three miles, and largest mountain tramway, exceeding the only other one in this country on Cannon moun tain, near Franconia, N.H., com pany president J. Otto George said. Bend Bowling Results The Oklahomans really opened the eyes of the fans last night as they treated highly-rated Brooklyn college almost with contempt during an 84-52 victory in the quarter- nnai round. The Brooklyn Kingsmen were absolutely helpless during the first half as East Central rolled up a 53-24 lead. And the Okla homans reeled off 12 more points a row to open the second half before the dazzled easterners could hit for a basket. Claudell Overton, a six-foot. three-inch senior, was the main i scorer with 29 points but Stacey Howell, who did great rebound work to go with his 14 points, played just as important a role. Central Missouri gained the "bracket of four" bv scoring a G5 to 5 victory over Central Wash ington college. Central Missouri rolled to a 17-5 lead during the first 10 minutes of play and never was headed. Showing the way was Mitch Cochran with nine field goals and four free throws for 22 points. ' Indiana State's "tourney-wlse" team romped away from Baldwin Wallace of Berea, O., Gl to 39. The Hoosiers' fine scoring job, led by Jim Berger's 19 points, was overshadowed, however, by their superlative defensive play. In two previous games in the tourney Baldwin Wallace had roll ed up Ki6 points, but against In diana State the Ohioans could click for only 23 markers in the first half and a dismal 16 in the second. ' The University of Tampa prov ed it was a team that can never be counted out of contention as it came from behind to win its quarter-final game from Davis and Elkins, 81 to 69. CLASSIC LEAGUE In league play last night Des chutes Concrete took all four games from the Elks and Medo Land Creamery, Rixe Insurance and All State all took three and one victories over their oppon ents, Stover-LeBlanc, Superior cafe and West Side taverp.
