Xats Complete
Schedule With
Logger Defeat
Willamette university's basketball
team shared a Northwest conference
championship with Whitman college
today. Both outfits completed their
regular schedules Saturday night,
with the Bearcats soundly trouncing
College of Puget Sound 63 to 37,
while Whitman was having a hard
tune to finish In front of College of
Idaho 48 to 46. Willamette and Whit
man each won eight games and lost
two. A defeat at the hands of Pacific
ruined Willamette's chance for an
undisputed championship.
The Bearcats completely dominat
ed the Loggers In every department
Saturday night. In fact, the visitors
were able to check In but one field
goal during the opening 10 minutes.
In the meantime the 'Cats, working
swiftly and surely, passed their way
to a 33-7 margin at the 14 minute
mark. A couple of long range lofters
by Pollock, a brace by StoIfeL coupl
ed with two by Stoffel, brought the
Loggers up to within 11 points of
Willamette as the two teams left the
floor at half time with Coach Ma
ple's men leading 33 to 31.
Willamette really got down to bus
iness In the second half, rolling in
30 points In 13 minutes while the
best Joey Mack s crew could accom
plish was two baskets by Tolefson.
The Bearcats added mate many to
their string from the gift line due
to 19 fouls called on the Loggers, uui
Anton, who caged five field goals,
also made good on seven out of eight
free shots, fikopil hit 5 out of 7.

2 Main Events
May Develop
A double main event Is In pros
pect for tomorrow night's wrestling
show at the armory. Although the
promoters do not come right out
Into the open and declare such Is
the case, nevertheless It Is evident
that they hope Tuesday night's fi
nale will develop Into a free for all.
George Wagner and Pat O 'Dowdy
are booked for the feature match
within the arena. However since
each man has Insisted upon a sec
ond to patrol no man's land Just
outside the ropes, most anything
can occur. Wagner has secured the
services of Curly Dunchin as a han
dy man while OTJowdy has nomi
nated Jack Lipscomb as his beat up
man.
Yaqul Joe and Al Szasz will show
their stuff In the 45 minute event
while Curl; Dunchin and Flash

tle blows Tuesday night, another
Willamette Valley league basketball
season will have passed Into history.
ror tne second successive year Coach
Bdon Cone's Woodburn Bulldogs
nave completely dominated the lea'
gue throughout, being undefeated In
13 gamea this year and also In their
final 13 games last sesson for a rec
ord of 36 consecutive wins. They
have had the championship securely
tucxea away for some time and
Tuesday night's game with Chema
wa will mean nothing as far as the
championship la concerned as the
Bulldogs could lose the contest and
still finish three games ahead of
SUverton, now In second place.
Molalla's Buckaroos, who have
played outstanding ball against the
league's strong teams only to fall
oeiore the weaker ones, will close
their season at home with the Dal
las Dragons forming the opposition,
The Dragons started the season In
strong fashion but fell down when
they went Into the tough part of
tneir schedule. Molalla, with a vet
eras team on the floor, will have to
guard the high scoring Dallas pair,
Bennett and Dornhecker, If they
expect to finish with an even slate
with seven wins against the same
number of losses.
Canby high will go to SUverton
where they are expected to suffer de
feat No. 13 at the hands of the
Foxes, who have played great ball
all season. Klinger, Canby's aoe scor
er, has forged to the front rapidly
as a serious threat.
West Linn will visit Independence
for their final WVI league game. The
Hopsters, led by Hartman and Linn,
should have little trouble disposing
of the Lions who have taken only
one game so far. The Hopsters will
be pointing for their clash with Dal
