Season Record Shows
'Cats Led Point Work
Although Willamette play-erf-
one game less than did all
other Northwest conference
quints with the thVexception
of College of Idaho, the Bear
cats racked up the greatest
number of points. Their to
tal was 874 as compared with
844 tallied by Lewis & Clark,
which finished in fourth po
sition. The averages were 62.4
and 56.3 respectively.
Official records reveal that
the Pacific University Badgers
turned in the best defensive re
cord of 733 points for a game
average of 48.9. Willamette's
defensive mark was 755 points,
or an average of 54 per contest.
Linfield was charged with
163 fouls, high in this depart
ment. Whitman was whistled
down 260 times for the low
mark. The Bearcats had 305
personals assessed against them.
Ed Rooney of Pacifie took

Willamette valley league,
earned its finals spot in the
district competition by de
feating Silverton, Stayton and
Woodburn after taking a first
round slap from the Stayton
Eagles. Although the Vikings
has to make 160 pounds or
less, Ball feels that he will be
the master of Wolfe. The lat
ter was credited with winning
all three previous meetings.
Wolfe recently returned
from Seattle where he boxed
Puford Ransom to a draw.
The bout, an eight round semi-final
to the Ike Williams
Henry Davis scrap, is said to
have been outstanding for ac
tion. Principal interest on the
local card is the four round
preliminary in which Eddie
Kahut of Woodburn will be a
principal. Kahut, brother of
Joe, heavyweight boxer of
considerable reputation, will
meet Dick Collie of Salem.
Joe expected to be in bis
brother's corner.
Bill Wickersham of Van
couver, Wash., will meet At
Cliff in the six-round semi
final. Cliff is banking on his
experience to prevent Wick
ersham from landing one of
his disastrous blows.
The curtain raiser will go
on at 8:30 for the card that
will see a new low scale of
admission prices in effect.

Salem, undefeated in district
play, would still have a chance
at the title if they are turned
back Wednesday. Two defeats
are needed to oust a team from
the district 11 double elimi

The district 11 berth is the
only spot in the state tourna
ment which is still unsettled.
Dallas gained the district 8

Lee Stars as Pilots
Oust 'Cats from IMAIB
Portland, March It will be
a long time before Willamette
university basketball followers
forget a 5-foot, 5-inch Chinaman
named Fred (Happy) Lee. Lit
tle Lee, ordinarily not one of the
top scorers on the Portland uni
versity team, has had a hot night
opposite the Bearcats every time
Willamette and Portland have
met for the last three years.
Lee, now a senior, completed
his jinx of the Bearcats here
Tuesday night in the finals of
the district 2 NAIB tournament.
The diminutive guard accounted
for 27 points as the Portlanders
rolled to a 79-60 victory over
Willamette. He had an amazing
12-for-18 shooting average, and
many of those shots were how
itzers from back of the keyhole.
The Pilot team left here by
train early Wednesday morning
for the national NAIB tourney
at Kansas City, which opens
early next week. '
Willamette made a go of it
throughout the first half and
the early minutes of the sec
ond stanza here Tuesday. The
Bearcats worked into an early
10-6 lead, thanks chiefly to a
couple of field goals and a like
number of gift tosses by Chuck
Robinson.
Portland came back with a
Jackson Winters field goal and
Lee s second bucket of the night
to tie the count at 10-10 after
only 5 minutes of play.
Tempo struck a torrid pace
for the next couple of minutes.
L o n Scrivens swished a 25
footer to give Willamette a
12-10 lead; Portland's Bob De
vich tied it up with a tip-in,
then Portland went out front
for the first time in the ball
game when Lee rammed home
a 2-pointer from the key at
the six-and-a-half minute
mark. 'Cat Forward Ted Lo

Faculty Fun Game
Set for Thursday
There may not be too much
basketball played, but unques
tionably, those on the side lines
will be treated to quantities of
laughs Thursday night when the
faculty and members of the ' W
club of Willamette university get
together for their annual court
game." The fun will start at 8
o'clock.
The idea may be classified in
the sour grapes division, but
quite a number of Willamette
students and Salem townsfolk
are pleased that they will be
able to see Coach Johnny Lewis
in action. If his Bearcats had
won in the NAIB tourney in
Portland, Lewis would have
been en route to Kansas City.
It is understood the faculty
team members will appear in
costume. Just what that means,
only those who attend the show
will find out.
