Portland wins Madras to face tough playoff test in Mac Hi By Bill Thompson I Bulletin Staff Writer In almost any other district, j Madras would be a cinch to gain j a spot in the A-2 tourney at Coos Bay March 13, 14 and 15. But in gaining the tournament this year, Madras, champions of the Greater Western subdistrict, I must play off with Mac Hi, cham-1 pions of the Greater Eastern sub district. Madras, 20-0 this season, is rated first among the stale's A-2 clubs. Mac Hi of Milton-Freewa-ter, playing a slightly tougher i schedule, is 17-5 and rated second in the state. ' So, if you pay any atlenlion to polls, the district playoff clashes between Madras and Mac Hi look like they could turn out to be the feature A-2 games of the year. Madras Coach Ole Johnson cer tainly isn't Uiking the Pioneers lightly as he prepares his charges for the first playoff game this Sat urday at Milton-Freewater. For one thing, he figures Mac Hi is much improved over the club that played Prineville and Redmond in this area early in De cember. For another, he knows Mac Hi's reputation as being "almost un beatable" on their home "cracker box gym." But this year he's got something going for him that he didn't have last year when Madras last to Vale in the A-2 district playoff aft er winning the first game at home. That's the "hammer," as they say in shuffleboard in this case meaning Madras will have the home-court advantage in the sec ond game March 3 and the third game March 4 lif necessary). j Of course, a win this Saturday ! at Milton-Freewater would be just I fine with Ole and his boys. Be- sides, they've "got an undefeated record to protecL . J It must have been quite a stir prise to high school basketball fans , in the state to read in Sunday's : Oregonian that Wilson cage boss I Chuck Stevenson was quitting i coaching after this season. It was in the fall of im that j Stevenson took over the basketball coaching reins at Wilson, then a brand new Portland school. Starting out with a bunch of green sophomores, he figured it would take about four seasons to become a contender in the tough P1L league. This year, his fifth season as Wilson coach, he's made it los ing two narrow games to unde feated Grant but mowing down everything else in the Portland City League. The club, ranked fourth in the state, is also expected to be very tough in the upcoming A-l tourna ment. So naturally, cage followers are wondering why Chuck is quitting just when he hits the top. Oregonian prep writer Bruce Engel said the reason Stevenson was quitting was the money. "I have a couple of youngsters who will be ready for college edu cations in a few years," Stevenson told Engel, "and I won't be able to put them through on my cur rent salary. So I'm going to go after something better." We remember another season when Stevenson was "at the top" only to step down from coach ing. But that switch was the forced kind. It was after the 1956 season when Stevenson's fine Baker loam had tied Pendleton and Milton Freewater for the old Blue Moun tain Conference title. In a three-way playoff for a lone A-l tourney spot, Stevenson's club lost out to Pendleton. Still, Baker had tied for (lie lea gue title with something like a 10-2 record. And in three years at Baker Stevenson had fashioned an enviable .800 won-loss record. Nevertheless, it wasn't good enough for Baker known that time as a graveyard for coaches. We remember the day the school board was called for a special closed meeting. We were waiting outside the door of the school sup erintendent's office when Steven son was asked to resign his post despite an outstanding coaching and teaching record. The reason, as given lo us by Baker School Superintendent James Evans after the meeting, was that Stevenson was a "con troversial figure" which, trans lated, meant that he had become another., victim of the downtown quarterbacks. Shortly thereafter Stevenson got his job at Wilson, where he has been highly respected ever since. Not long after, a Baker auto dealer (who had coached a state tournament winner at Baker sev eral years before) also transfer red. And suddenly the ugly downtown pressure collapsed. But that is an other story. Anyway, we can't help thinking i that, subconsciously at least, the ' Baker experience might have had something to do with Stevenson's i plans to quit when ahead. I Chuck told Engel: "The more success you have in this business, the more you get to thinking you're pretty sharp in j your line. Then you have an un avoidable poor year and you're down in the dumps. The key to a coach's success is 90 per cent the material he has and nolxxly guar antees the continuous supply of good material." Chuck knows he's a hero today. He also knows there's no guaran teeing that he won't wind up a bum tomorrow. Anyway, we wish all the best to one of the finest gentlemen in the coaching ranks we've ever had the pleasure to know Chuck Steven son. Speaking of Baker, Bulldog Coach Gary Hammond had all the bad luck a guy could ask for last weekend. First off, his Baker quintet was upset by a hot The Dalles team 65-55 Saturday just as the fast improving Bulldogs looked like they would battle La Grande down to the wire for the second A-l tourney spot. As if that wasn't bad enough. Hammond was hospitalized in Boise the next evening after get ting a chicken bone lodged in his throat. A physician worked for more than an hour to retrieve the bone. Hammond remained in the hos pital overnight. BILLS SIGN ROOKIE BUFFALO. N. Y.
