Scribe still likes Bucks By Bill Thompson Bullttln Staff Writer We've been stung throe slrnlght times on Uie Pendleton basketball team In the last three yenrs, but durned it we don't pick them to ' win the whole shooting match next season. In 1959-flO wo picked thorn for first and they finished among the also rans. Prior to the 1900-61 sea son, we correctly picked the Bend Bruins to win the conference ti tle, but had Pendleton for sec ond. And once again the Bucks finished out of money. And last season we had Pendle ton coming out on top again. On ly it didn't quite happen that wru as they wound up with a poor 6T, league record. But. doggone they sure look potent for next season. Coach Dale Warberg, one of the best in the business, has four of his first five boys back losing only 6-5 center Ray Hughes who scored 381 points during tho soa son. Hughes' loss, however, Is not ns bad as it may seem since he lack ed savvy on defense. Starters back for Pendleton next season will include 6-1 Steve Bunker (lfi2 points and 158 re bounds) who was hampered by Illness the latter part of this sea son. Bunker is probably the best de fensive player on the club and a fine all-around athlete. Bunker was a junior slnrler this year along with Larry French, a 6-4 "big guy" who's slill growing and will probably hit 6-3 next sea son. French was green, but ho slill wound up with 1B7 points and 1!I3 rebounds second best to Hughes' 259 rebounds. Next year he should be more aggressive and will be tough to stop. Two sophomore starters will bo back Dick Jones, second best scorer on tho team (192 points), a fino long shot; and 5-5 Jackie Baiid, fifth in scoring with 157 points. Then there's all of this year's good Jayvee club returning, a squad that won 11 of 12 games with other Jayvee teams in the conference and one which posted an over-all 18-5 record. Bill McCrae led the Pendleton Baby Bucks with 174 points, while Kelly Andrew was second with 151. Tom Kricksnn, another big man, was third with 128 points. Three former Bend Legion base ball players are on tiiis year's Linfield College squad and once again the Wildcats are favor ed to win tho Northwest Confer ence title. Eddie Cecil, one-year sopho more lelterman, is being counted on by Coach Roy llclser as Lin field's number two pitcher behind two-year junior Tom Younker, an BRONCOS SIGN FRASER DENVER tl'Pl) Linebacker Jim Fraser, who twico has had his professional football career in terrupted by Iho nrmed services, Monday signed a contract for the 2 season Willi tlio Denver Bum cos of the American Football League. RECREATION BUREAU WASHINGTON (LTD - Presi dent Kennedy announced creation of a Bureau of Outdoor Itix rca tion in Uie Interior l)caitnicnt and appointed Dr. Edward C. Crafls. assistant chief of tiie For est Service, to head It. by pitching a Ihrec-hittcr against the well-seasoned Oregon Ducks last Saturday at McMinnvllle, but lost a hcartbrcakcr 1-0. It was Oregon's tenth game, while the Wildcats are just get ting started. Eddie, who last pitched for the Bend Legion squad in 1959, is con sidered the hardest thrower on the club and had a 2-0 record last year with a 3.34 ERA. Another Linfield mound pros pect is freshman Hike Riley who was a member of the Linfield Jayvee basketball team. Says the Linfield College spring sporls press book: "Bothered by control problems in early workouts, but Riley ap pears to be a good prospect." And here s what the press book says about Stan Williams, former Sistors High star who played for the Bend Legion club several sea sons back: "Senior, three-year lctterman. Stan is one of the most valuable players in the NWC. He was nam ed to the honorable mention team last year after hitting .296. As a sophomore, Stan hit a lofty .400 and was one of the nation's top all confcrenco selection two years hitters. Stan's three years of ex- ln a row. penence at shortstop should Eddie lived up to his advances 1 steady Uie infield." Pipers hope for comeback KANSAS CITY, Mo. (UPD- Connie Dierking, Johnny Cox and Dick Barnett will try to fire the Cleveland Pipers back into con tention tonight in the second game of their best-of-5 series with the Kansas City Steers for the Ameri can Basketball League champion ship. Dierking and Barnett each gar nered 31 points and Cox chunked in 25 as the Pipers dropped a 126-115 decision to the Steers Sun day in the first game of the se ries. Cox kept Cleveland in the game in the last quarter with three straight three-point field goals and finished with five three pointers for the night. But despite the 87 points by Cleveland's "big three," the Pip ers didn't have it in the clutch. One of the reasons for the Piper setback was Bill Bridges, who scored 36 points and grabbed 17 rebounds for Kansas City. Larry Staverman had 25 points and Gene Tormohlen 21 for the vic tors. HONOR NELSON, SMITH SALISBURY, N.C. (UPI) Red Smith of the New York Herald Tribune and Lindsay Nelson of the New York Mots will bo honored tonight as the nation's top sports I writer and sports broadcaster, re- speclively. The Bend Bulletin, Tuesday, April 3, 1962 Paces beefs' pitching Bob Purkey rea to grab o. roSe By Unlftd Pross International It looks like Bob Purkey is ready to take up the slack for Joey Jay as the right-handed aee of the Cincinnati Reds when they begin the defense of their Nation al League championship next Monday. A hero in defeat against the New York Yankees in the World Series last fall, Purkey went nine innings for the second time this spring Monday in a 5-2 three-hit ter against the New York Mets. Jay, a 21-game winner last sea son but a holdout this spring, has yet to go more than five innings. Purkey, who lost the third game Boston figures to win playoff; Lakers in doubt By United Press International It's tonight or wait until next year for the Philadelphia Warriors and Detroit Pistons. The Warriors, down three games to two, take on the defending champion Boston Celtics at Phila delphia tonight, needing a victory to stay alive in their best-of-seven series to determine the Eastern Division champion in the Nation al Basketball Association playoffs. The Pistons are in the same boat in their series with the Lakers to determine the Western Division champion. Their game will be played at Detroit. Victor ies for the Celtics and Lakers would set up the final series to determine the NBA champion. Tom Cola Injured The Warriors, with Tom Gola on the injured list, plan to play their starting live, including Wilt Chamberlain, as much as possi ble, but the superior Boston bench expected to be the deciding factor. 'If Tom Gola wasn't injured, think we would beat them," Warrior Coach Frank McGuire said. Boston's Bob Cousy agreed that the outcome of tonight's game will hinge on how long the Warrior's first five can keep from fouling out. The Pistons, meanwhile are bat tling to accomplish what no other NBA team has done win the Western title after being down, 3-0. Detroit Optimistic They won at Detroit and Los Angeles last Thursday and Satur day and now feel they can beat the Lakers in the two remaining games. In 16 previous champion ship playoffs, no team has given another team a 3-0 lead and won the series. Willie Jones and rookie Johnny Egan were the key players in De troit's two victories and Coach Dick McGuire hopes they can keep it up. "There's no doubt that Willie has been the key man for us in the last two games," he said. "His scoring and playmaking have been nothing short of brilliant, but the biggest asset so far has been his defense." NEW SIZE DODGE DART I NEW LOW RRJCE it pays (to have e93 AVT.rsAVINGS .

Orlolti Beat Pirates Billy Hoeft became Uie first Oriole pitcher of the spring to go nine innings in a 7-1 nighttime victory over the Pittsburgh Pi rates. Hoeft pitched a six-hitter, struck out seven and walked two behind an eight-hit attack fea tured by Ron Hansen's two-run single. Bob Friend staggered the full nine innings for the Pirates.

Former President Eisenhower was among Uie crowd of 5,181 at Palm Springs, Calif., where the 275 picked as best score in Masters AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPI)-Arnold Palmer, twice winner of the Mas ters golf tournament, believes a near-record 275 will be good enough to win Uie big one Uiis weekend. What's more, Palmer predicted in a television interview Monday night that young Jack Nicklaus, Uie amateur turned professional, is the boy -who will win the 26th annual Masters this weekend. Most observers believe a score in Uie low 280's will win it. Nick laus said tiie winning score will be a 278, but didn't say who his pre-tournament choice is to turn Uie trick. If Palmer's prognosticaUon holds up, Uie 275 will be the sec ond lowest score ever registered in the Masters. Ben Hogan holds the 72-hole record a 274 he posted in 1953. Three players hold Uie next lowest score a 279. Angels shaded the Dodgers, 6-5, in a battle between Los Angeles rivals.
