THE CAPITAL JOURNAL, SALEM, OREGON WILLAMETTE TO MEET WHITMAN AGAIN SATURDA Y MISSIONARIES TAKE 1ST GAME Stribling, Who Has Fought 280 Times, Is Lover of Speed CHEMAWA DROPS TWO GAMES TO SALEM SOUADS THREAT TO AMERICAN GOLFERS INSPECTING THE NEW BALL BY 38-35 COUNT PACE EIGH1 Although beaten In its first eirort to place a atrangle hold on the Northwest conference basketball championship when It met Whitman Friday night, Willamette university's hoop squad still has a chance to finish the season In first place. A win Saturday night over the Mis sionaries would mean that each squad had lost one game while Wil lamette had won eight and Whit man seven. The Bearcats were unable to re tain the eight point lead which they garnered during the first portion of Friday night's game and by the time the final gun had sounded the Mis sionaries were out in front with a margin of three points for a 38 to 35 win. If the remainder of the squad had been able to convert their gift shots like Dwlght Adams, the result would have been different. The Bearcats had 21 opportunities to collect points from the foul line but managed to drop the ball through the hoop nine times. Eight of these were made by Adams who had a percentage of eight out of 10. On the other hand Whitman converted six out of nine chances. Willamette plainly showed the strain of the affair Friday night, displaying extreme nervousness at times, especially during the first half. The Bearcats managed to tally four field goals In rapid succession before Whitman could count, but then the Missionaries finally found the hoop and throughout the re mainder of the evening showed su periority In shooting, especially from well back of the foul line and from the corners. Their defense was tight too. The score at haif time was 19 to 15 for Whitman. The Missionaries worked their lead up to nine points during the second half on two dif ferent occasions, once extending it to 11 points. Three times during that period Willamette staged ral lies which came within three points of overtaking their opponents. Two tough breaks fell to the lot of the Bearcats. One came when Percy Carpenter made good on a foul shot only to find that it did not count because time hod been taken out. His second effort failed. Then near the end of the game a field goal by Carenter was nullified because Referee Coleman had called a technical foul on Scales. Whitman showed that It had two good centers, although Kloostra se cured tlie tlpoff during most of the game. West, Whitman's first center was taken from the game shortly utter the start of the second half due to personal fouls. Mills who took his place, proved an adept at hand ling the ball, accounting for 10 points. The preliminary game Saturday. which will be started at 7 ocUxk. will be played between Willamette's freshmen and the Peninsula Aces of Portland. The frosh defeated the Acs in Portland early this reason, but sines that time Coach Sparkb iias nan to rcouiid his squad. The second of the championship aeries is scncdulcd for 8 o'clock.
