SALEM 59, HILLSBORO 38
Salem Coach Harold Hauk
used his reserves through
necessity in the fourth quar
ter. The Viking substitutes
salted the game away with an
amazing performance of ac
curate shooting, ball hawking
nd defensive play.
Salem held a 38-32 lead as
the fourth quarter got under
way. Jim Knapp and Dave
Johnson had already left the
game on fouls. And before
the fourth period was half
over, Jack Bishop and Tom
Pickens also were whistled to
the bench.
That left only Guard Gordy
Domogalla from the starting
' lineup on the floor. Hauk
used Larry Springer at the
other guard slot, Bob Miller
at center and Jim Sice and
Herb Triplett at forwards.
The combination worked
beautifully. Salem outscor
ed Hillsboro 17-4 after the
fourth Vik starter had fouled
out. Hillsboro was limited to
only one field goal in the
fourth period.
The game was close through
the first half, with long shots
by Domogalla and Pickens and
tick ball-hawking by Bishop
OREGON HIGH SCHOOL
and Johnson providing
the
spark for the Vikings.
The score was tied
four
times, at 2-2, 6-6, 8-8 and 10
10, before Salem took a 12-11
advantage by the end of the
first period.
Hillsboro went ahead 14-13
soon after the start of the
second stanza, but Bishop can
ned jump shot for Salem to
put the Viks out front 15-14,
and Salem maintaied the lead
after that. It was 23-23 at
halftime.
Domogalla ' led Salem's
scoring with 13 points, while
Pickens had 12. Domogalla
hit four Out of 13 shots, Pick'
ens connected with five out
of 10. . The entire Salem team
had a good afternoon from the
floor, hitting-21 out of 59 at
tempts for a .356 average.
Hillsboro had only a - .164
average.

standouts under the back
boards for Salem. Bishop

Indiana Noses
Huskies Win
Kansas City, Mo. W.PJ In
the end it was a single free
throw, tossed calmly through
the hoop with only 27 seconds
to play, that told the tale In
the "story book" basketball
game.
' The mighty one - pointer,
chalked up by veteran Bob
Leonard, brought Indiana its
second NCAA basketball cham
pion last night with a 69-68 tri
umph. And it smashed the
hopes of Cinderella Kansas for
"just one more miracle."
Kansas, the team that was
supposed to be merely a ruin
after losing four members of
the team that won the national
title last year had confounded
the experts by driving to a tie'
score, the 15th tie of the game,
with a minute to go.
Then Leonard, the six-foot,
three inche ace who usually is
Indiana's playmaker, got the
biggest point in the history of
this tourney to put the hot-shot
Hoosiers ahead. Kansas got
the ball, drove down-court for
one last shot a line-drive by
Jerry Alberts.
The Jayhawks had climbed
to that moment on a ladder
of "miracles" winning the
Big Seven title, the Manhat
tan, Kans., regionals, and the
semi-finals against Washing
ton. But this last "miracle" didn't
happen. Alberts' shot wasn't
even close, and Indiana had the
game and the national crown.
Thus did the Hoosiers, in the
season when they won their
first undisputed Big Ten cham
pionship and were named the
Nation's No. 1 team by the Un
ited Press Board of Coaches, re
captured the NCAA crown they
wore back in 1940.
The writers honored the
Hoosiers by picking Leonard
and high-scoring six-foot-nine
inch Don Schlundt on the All
Tournament team. Completing

DALLAS 44, ASTORIA 41
The fabulous shooting of
Bob Olson, who sunk seven
long set shots on 11 tries, was
probably the big single fac
tor in the Dragon triumph.
Dallas' clean play was an
other tremendously important
item. The Dragons commit
ted a total of only five per
sonal fouls, i That limited As
toria's chances from the free
throw line. ,
This game - was the most
hotly contested, minute for
minute, of all eight games in
the first round. No more than
five points ever separated the
two teams, and the score was
tied 11 times.".-- f. "' v
Dallas led through most of
the first quarter, with Astoria
taking the advantage momen
tarlly. Astoria- was on top
14-13 as the first quarter end'
ed.
Coach Gordy Kunke's Dra
gons didn't manage to catch
up in the second period, but
they tied the score at 15-15,
17-17 and 21-21 as Harold
Holdorf and Olson carried the
attack for Dallas. Astoria
led 25-23 at halftime.
In the third period the score
was tied at 25, 27 and 31, but

and B. H. Born of Kansas, and
Bob Houbregs of Washington
Born, the six-foot, nine-inch
sophomore who took over for
the graduated Clyde Lovellette,
capped a brilliant season by be
ing named the tournament's
"most valuable" player.
Schlundt rolled up a mag-,
nificent 30 points In the big
game, although he played the
entire second half burdened
with three personal fouls.
Born racked up 26 until he
fouled out at 4:24 of the fi
nal period. Allen Kelley was
next high man for Kansas
with 20.
Indiana wound up breaking
two tournament scoring rec
ords the four-game total with
310 and the four-game free
throw With 108. Schlundt set
another by sinking 49 free
throws.
Washington had cracked the
previous total point record
when it ran its sum to 307 by
beating Louisiana State in the
consolation game, 88-69, as
Houbregs tallied 42 points.
That was three short of the
tourney record set by the Hus
kies' ace in the opening round,
The title game was played at
a furious pace as Al'en's
"scrawny kids" matched fire'
horse Indiana in rushes down
the court. At half-time it was
tied, 41-41. At the end of the
third period, the Hoosiers led,
59-58. The final margin of one
point was the first time in the
tourney's 16 year history that
the title has been settled by a
single marker.

Dallas still couldn't edge Into
the lead. It 'was 31-all when
the third period ended.
Soon after the start of the
fourth quarter, Herb Brandli
hit a field goal from in close
to give Dallas a 33-31 lead,
the first time the Polk county
crew bad been ahead since the
first quarter. Hugh Seppa,
who i led Astoria in scoring
with 13 points, hit a two-point
er from ' the right corner to
tie the score again, this time
at 33-33. t
Brandli drove in for a lay-
up that put Dallas out front
85-83, but Seppa duplicated
his previous shot from the
corner and it was tied again,
85-35.
Rex Domaschofaky connect
ed with a shot while on the
run to put Dallas into a 37-35
lead, and the Dragons man'
aged to preserve their posi
tions after that. ,
: The biggest lead of the ball
game was when Dallas lead
44-39 in the final few seconds
of play. Dallas played keep-
away during the final two
minutes, and succeeded in
drawing enough fouls from
desperate Astoria defensemen
to icore their five points from
the free throw line in two
minutes as many free throws
as Astoria had stored all
night.
Ron Smart, Astoria's highly-rated
center, had a bad
night trying to find the hoop,
hitting only five out of 23
shots. But he stood out on
the boards, snaring 17 re
bounds, more than twice as
many as anybody on the Dal
las team.

ONTARIO 61
Ontario o u t-field goaled
The Dalits 27-20, but lost -the
game on free throws. The
difference in the number of
personal fouls called against
each team told the story. On
tario was charged with 22
personal fouls, while the whis
tle was tooted for The Dalles
infractions on only 12 occa
sions. Ontario was ahead until the
fourth period. The Tigers led
17-13 at the end of the first
period, 31-30 at half time and
49-46 when the third period
ended. But with two ot On;
tario's starters, Bill Stoner
and Vance Savage, benched
with five fouls, The Dalles
outscored Ontario 17-12 in the
final period.
Savage's loss was particu
larly painful to Ontario. He
Had soored 16 points before
fouling out.
John Lundell of The Dalles
led his team with 16. Charlie
Garcia of Ontario also had 16.
ALBANY 70, MEDFORD 58
Dave Shelby, at 6 feet 7
inches the closest thing this
tournament has to a Wade
Halbrook, led Albany's vic
tory by scoring 27 points and
grapplng 24 rebounds. He hit
nine field goals on 17 at
tempts.
Albany got oft to an 8-0
lead, but saw Medford come
right back with an eight-point
rally to tie the count at 8-all.
The game was nip and tuck
after that, with Albany lead
ing 18-16 at halftime and Med
